Passion Play Is
Warmly Endorsed
By Dr. Gerringer
Dr. L. W. Gerringer, pastor of the

today in a statement heartily com
mended the Pasion Play, which is to
be presented matinee and evening at
the Stevenson theatre here Wednes
day of this week. Dr. Grringer said:
“I want to take this means of com
mending and thanking you for bring
ing the Passion Play to Henderson.
I saw the play a few years ago in
Greensboro, but with a different cast
of characters, and without hesitation
I endorse and recommend it I think
♦he people of Henderson .and sur
-nMndJmr towns are especially fortu
nate in having the opportunity to see
this great Biblical drama during Iho
lenten season and just, before Easter
when we are thinking in a. special way
about Christ the central character of
this great drama. Here’s hoping and
believing that the public is going to
natroni/.e the Passion Play next Wed
nesday and thus show their appreci
ation of the great opportunity yon ere
giving the community.”
Is This Too Good
for Your Cough?
Creomulsion may be a better help
than you need. It combines seven
major helps in one —the best helps
known to science. It is made for
quick relief, for safety.
Mild coughs often yield to lesser
helps. No one can tell. No one knows
which factor will do most for any
certain cough. So careful people,
more and more, are using Creomul
sion for any cough that starts.
The cost is a little more than a
single help; But your druggist guar
antees it, so it costs nothing if 1t -fails
to bring you quick relief. Coughs are’
danger signals. For safety’s sake,
deal with them in the best way
known.—(Adv).

During Memorial
High praise for the singing of Miss

Mrs. W. Brooks Parham ,of this city,

IMiss Everett is spending several
Weeks in the Bermudas.
The service was held in Christ

Queen Victoria at a church service
in a British colony. They also ex
pressed a desire that, the dean should
convey to Miss Everett their hearty
congt alulations on the very beautiful
way in which she sang the anthem.”

LOCAL MAN STARTS
INSURANCE AGENCY
Thomas E. Faulkner, local insur
ance man announces the formation
of the Henderson Insurance Agency,
recently organized by him, of which
he is the manager.
Mr. Faulkner represents the Inde
pendent Life Insurance Company of
Ndshvillc, Tcnn., writing all kinds ol
life risks. He also represents the Mer
chants Insurance Company, covering
fire and all kinds of automobile in
surance, including theft and collision
Mr. Faulkner is well known in Hen
derson, where he has lived all of his
life. He is an experienced insurance
salesman, having sold both life and
fire insurance locally for the past
four years.
Extra,
“Stratosphere records reveal pres
ence of flying particles of sUb-atoma--
tic size which may be older than the
earth.” That may .be of great historic
value, but it sounds like the same
old pre-war stuff we’ve been hearing
■ about for 12 years.
CHILD GUIDANCE
Dy FRANK HOWARD RICHARDSON, M. D., F A. C. P.
(Questions will he answered by Dr. Richardson if accompanied by a
stamped and self-addressed envelope.)
WHAT BRAND OF DISCIPLINE DO
YOU USE?
James Clark never gives his parents*
a bit of trouble. He minds the mo
ment he is spoken to; he is polite to
his mother and obeys his father’:,
slightest command, as soon as it is
expressed. He is perfectly willing to
yield to his parents’ better judgment
about what boys to play with, what
books to read, when to go to bed. His
parents constantly sing his praises,
and their friends,, congratulate them
upon their wonderful disiipline. The
father takes credit for this, saying
that it pays to be firm with children
and to insist upon unquestioning
obedience.
Os late, however, things have not
been quite as satisfactory as they
I were. The boy lias lost interest in
! his school work, gets poor marks, and
does not seem to feel bad about it.
He is listless and mopes about, and
does not care to play. He has lied to
his parents on a number of occasions,
so that they are beginning to be un
able to trust him. He is pale, languid,
listless. They have caught* him moic
than once in small thefts. What can
; be the matter? Is it possible that the
father’s discipline was at fault?
I Not only possible, but certain! In
stead of being discliplined toward seif
! determination and ability to make de
j cisions for himself, this unfortunate
child has been schooled to depend ab
( solutely upoil his father. He sees no
hope of ever making a life for- him
self. The future holds no .pest. A
i stronger nature would have rebelled
1 against such a discouraging, hopeless
future; and his rebellion would have
saved the day.
Unfortunately, this bay was made ot
the stuff that bends to superior force.
The condition in which he finds him
self is but the beginning ot a life
of neurotic, unhappy dependence up
on those to whom he will cling—
stronger natures, liwe his father or
later his employer or friend —never
! developing into true maturity. His “dis
cipline" has been a tragedy indeed.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
' QUESTION: Dear *Dr. Richardson;
My little girl seems constantly ob
sessed by fears —fear of the dark, fear
of strangers, fear of high places and
of lonely places, fear of loud noises.
In fact, there is hardly anything that
she is not afraid of. I am quite net
vous myself; and more so than usual,
since a slight accident that I ad in
the car a few months ago. My little
girl seems be fuH~«f complexes.
ANSWER: Most of us are,—in fact,
we could not function very well if we
were not full of complexes. If you
mean that your little girl is full of
undesirable complexes that is of cour
se not nearly so good. I am wonder
ing whether much of this fear of ev
erything in creation is not a pass
able imitation of your conduct since
your accident; ai least, if it is not
the best imitation that a little gin
can make of a grown woman’s con
duct. 1 shall not ask you to control
your “nervousness.” But I shall have
to tell you that that is a large factor
in your little girl’s fears. You would
be setting her a wonderful example
along the line of what you are asking
of her. if you would control this mani
festation of fear in yourself. Not a;,
easy or a pleasant answer, it is? Ye
it’s the only adequate one.
QUESTION: You said that fear
sometimes caused stuttering. But my
child who never was frightened stut
ters. My father does, too; and I don’t
think he ever had a scare either.
ANSWER: Yes. I said that fear was
one cause. I might have said that
quite as common and as serious a
cause was imitation; and that is evi
dently what caused your boy’s trouble.
We do not know for sure that stut
tering is hereditary; but we do know
that it is frequtnly caused by seeing
a parent or a grandparent stutter.
THE HOME THAT EDUCATES
That rich Mrs. Graham cannot un
derstand why it is that her son Char
les cries and whines for things until
he gets them; while Dan, the son of
the little newsdealer on the corner
goes out and gets the things that he
wants ft>r himself. She often refuses
Charles thigs that he asks for, when
she knows they are bad for him; but
he keeps on teasing until, as she says
she simply has to give in to him in
order to have any peace at all.
“I wish he could learn to be like
Dan. and do unpleasant jofes, instead
of shirking them until someone does
them for him. Even Dan’s example,
when the boys play together, doesn’t
seem to make him a good sport. 1
don’t see why the school can’t teach
him to be industrious, the way it
taught Da-n.”
Mrs Graham is wrong. The school
did not teach Dan, the wholesome
lessons she thinks did, and wishes it
might teach Charles. Dan’s home did
that, just as su:eiy as her home is
teaching her son the harmful lessons
ho has learned The home begins its
educational work six years earlier
than the school; and those six years
ate the most important of all, when
it comes to learning.
Why shouldn't Charles tease, when
he knows he can get what he wants
if only he will persist long enough?
Why should htr do unpleasant jobs,
when by shirking them he can get
ethers to do them for him?
School? It does not compare witn
the home as an educational institu
tion. How are your home, and mine
educating our children?
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
QUESTION: Pear Dr. Richardson:
My little girl is afraid to go to bee
alone. If I pui her down and leave
the room she cries so hard that she
disturbs the neighbor, and so I have
HOURS 9 A. M. TO 12 NOON
to go hack and sit with her till she
falls asleep. What can I do to breaa
her of this crying and screaming?
ANSWER: I am afraid you have
taught the young lady that the way
to get things she wants, but that you
know she should not have, is to make
herself so disagreeable that she wiijs
in the end. I should not worry about
the neighbors; they would greatly pre
fer a few hours of screaming, if neec
be, in order to get permanent quiet in
the end.
QUESTIONS: I want to speak to
you on a very delicate matter. My
hoy has a terrible habit—his father
tells him that it will make him crazy
if he doesn’t stop it. Can you help
a distracted mother?
ANSWER: Perhaps if you would
realize that this is not a delicate mat
ter at all, but a habit that is always
outgrown, with no serious results at
all, it would help the situation won
derfully. No boy ever became crazy
as a result of it; telling your boy
this nonsense makes him think more
, about his habit, and so renders his
mastering it the more difficult. As
sist him to overcome this habit by
encouragement,—do not drive away
his confidences by being shocked
when he trusts you and tells you his
problems.

High Point Paper
Calls Mr. Rollins
Smart School Man
Commenting on the suspension of
schools here last week on account of
the bad ..weather and consequent ab
sentees, the’ High Point Enterprise
last Friday editorially called Super
intendent E. M. Rollins “a genuinely
smart school man.” With that as the
subject for the editorial, the High
Point paper said:
“Superintendent E. ,M. Rollins, of
the Vance county schools, is a school
man whose vision extends a great
deal beyond the ends of his schnozzle
as revealed by the announcement that
Henderson’s schools have been closed
on account of the inclement weather.
“The action of Superintendent Rol
lins in suspending the schools was
caused, it is explained, by the realiza
tion that excessive absences owing to
the inclement weather of the week
would cut down the attendance aver
age that the city’s system would lose
at least one teacher next year—(teach
ers are allotted on the -basis of the
average attendance of the preceding
year. About one-fourth of the city a
enrollment was absent Wednesday
and forthwith came the order to shut
down for the remainder of the week.
“Poor attendance lays a heavier toll
probably than any other retarding
factor on our public school system in
North Carolina. The effect is to retard
not only the class in which the ab
sentee should be but also the effect, is
felt beyond by reason of the manner
of providing teachers on the basis
of the preceding year's average at
tendance.”
Attendance in the city schools the
first three days of last week war
sharply cut down by the sleet storm
and dangers created by it. Rathei
than run the risk of losing a teachei
due to slack attendance, Mr. Rolliy*.,
after conferring with members of the
city school board, ordered the closing
cf the schools the rest of the week.
