PRAYER FOR WISDOM:—So
toaoh us to number our days, that wo
®*> *W>ly our hearts unto wisdom
Psalm 90: 12.
THE BIGGEST QUESTION.
Breod, not beer. Is the big question
thad concerns voters In the coming
elections Beer can be dispensed with,
but not bread. Both the major parties
bave taken stands in favor of a change
in the present status of prohibition,
hnd, while there is little sentiment,
for a continuance of
ths present set-up. politically speak
ing, this is not the thing of vital im
portance and consequence. The resent
ment that has been built up by the
wst propagandists against the dry
law is a by-product of the depression,
and so much headway in so abort a
ti*M would have been impossible but
tor tbs misery growing out of the
economic slump of the past three
years.
If the Republicans were responsible
for the prosperity of the fat years
during the poet-war decade, as they
claimed, but which is not here ad
mitted, then how can they escape re
sponsibility for the lean years that
have followed? The truth of the mat
ter is that they were not the bearers
of the prosperity era. but It is a poor
rule that does not work both ways, at
least at times.
Voters are more Interested at this
time In a full dinner pail than they
aro in a foaming schooner of beer. It
matters not which of the major par
ties gets the most votes, the ma
jority will not be a liquor vote. If
Roooevelt is elected, it will be largely
because of a distrust of the present
Republican administration, which ha-'
demonstrated a woeful lack of ade
quate leadership. It does not deserve
a longer tenure of office, and is no!
likely to receive it.
MORE ENCOURAGING.
! According to reports over the week
end, the stock market is not alone in
furnishing some evidences that bet
ter days are ahead for this country.
And one does not have to go as far as
New York to find some of the cheer
ing developments. I
Some factories in Winston-Salem
and Elkin have gone on a 24-hour
work shift to take care of orders, and
it is said that business in hand is
t sufficient to run at that rate until
tup in November. Hosiery mills in
ham have voluntarily increased
the pay of their employees ten per
cant as the result of improved busi
ness. From other places has come the
news recently that Idle workers were
going back to their jobs.
Cotton prices have recently ad
vanced, and there is general expec
tation that tobacco will sell a trlflej
better this fall, even though there iaf
not much of it.
Merchants in some localities have
returned from New York with the
inflormation that buying from all
parts of the country in that great cen-i
ter is brisk and that a new spirit ol
optimism prevails over the outlook foi|
ths fall. Elsewhere the view has been
expressed that there will be a pick-up
by or during the fail, or. if not them
certainly early in 1933.
Just now business everywhere id
wrestling with the mid-summer
slump, and little Is going on in the
way of actual sales. Reports fronj
merchants in Henderson are, how*
ever, that the two trade days at th4
end of the past week brought them 4
fairly satisfactory volume of business!
which contributed somewhat toward
brightening the horizon.
The man who is looking for the
bright spots does not have so much!
difficulty now in finding thorn. There
is much yet to he done* and n long,
kmg may to go before noraaal con
ditions return, but it does seem me
are at least headed in that direction.
A BIT OF TALK IN 1888.
'Take a slant at that sitting by
the window." said BaMb to Ms friend
as they drank their afilrr-dinner cof
fee.
"He looks liko ready money,” re
plied Jones. "Who is he?"
"That’s Klngley,” replied Smith
"made millions in the last few yearn."
“What Aid be do—disoover a hurled
treasure?”
Smith smiled. "You're not so far
wrong,” he replied. "Remember the
depression, don’t you. along about
nineteen thirty-two, when most of ua
were scared pink? Klngley was in the
steel business in a small way, and
just when everybody else had mode up
their minds that the country was go
ing plumb to Hell, he began to buy
up small plants for a song. Then he
took what’s known as a ‘position’ in
the metal market. Didn’t have much
cash either, but prices were down to
absolutely absurd levels. It was a
buyer’s market —and a scared buyer's
market, too."
“And then the turn came," said
Jones.
‘Til say It did,” continued Smith,
"and Kingsley made his fortune while
the rest of us were hiding in the
woods and bellyaching. Had the same
chance myself; lots of us did, but we
were longeared asses. Ever see a long
eared ass with two legs?"
Jones nodded. “Yes,” he replied rue
fully: “I have; saw one this morning
when I shared."—Washington, N. C.,
