13 .THE POPE UP TO HIS MASTER
STROKE?
From letters circulated in High
i Point and elsewhere and also judg
ing from newspaper reports it looks
very much like the Pope of Rome is
trying to take the world for Cath
olicism ,. stirring up the Catholics
against the Protestants and the
Protestants against the Catholics in
order to poison the minds of the peo
; p e and win his point while America
is at war. This two-faced propa
ganda is in line with former declar
ations. America, at least, should
act at once.
JAIL THESE FELLOWS
The labor agents come here, tarry
K a day or so and scatter their litera
ture.; Soon afterwards from 10 to
.25 men follow to the "land of milk
fand honey" so graphically described
by the agent. The city authorities
should keep a bulldog watch for
! such men. High Point can ill afford
ito lose these men, in fact labor is
1 very scarce here anyway.

A ONE-SIDED DEBATE
Last week there was a debate at
Elm Street school. The query wr s
"Resolved, that the Red Cross s
more important 10 the army thau
the Y. M. C. A." There were two
speakers on each side, a boy and a
girl in each case. The boy on the
negative side thought he was on the
affirmative side, therefore when the
debate occurred there were three
speakers on the merits of the Red
ross ana tne gin naa to noia up
alone the merits of the Y. M C. A ,
three against one. But the judges
didn't allow for the uneven match
and gave the decision i i favor of the
Red Cross side. The Y. M. C. A.
advocate contend d that since sal
vation came first, therefore more
essential. If the soldier had the sav
ing grace he was fitted for any con
sequences to follow.
