“WE SHOULD WORRY". : |
Election is over and the post mortems are being dished up lib
erally by the press of the nation. To many things has the Repub
lican landslide been attributed . ‘l'hose whose strongest interest
lies in the defeat of the L.eague of Nations have said that|the league
was the sole cause. Those who have favored the league deny that
the league issue caused the defeat and attribute it to what they call
the “Socialism” of the present tdministration, |
All attribute it partly to; the general condition of unrest and de-|
sire for a change. -Conditions that inevitably arise out of war have!
made the present administration unpopular, although the other par-{
ty would have made itself equally unpopular had it been in pnwerl
It was not 'the men who directed the thing but the thing itself hat
caused the dissaisfacion.
The nominal issue of the League of Nations was entirely nh--}
scured by other things in the nation as it was in Georgia. “In
Georgia about sixty thousand men voted for Watson and Hardwick
because they believed in their constructive ability —because they be
lieved in Watson. The other fifty thousand voted for them be
cause they believed that they themselves had been unfairly treated
and that the two candidates had been unfairly treated. It was re
action of sentiment.
o Natnoqally, the lines were not as closely drawn around personal
!t‘les. Neither great party was h(:u.(lc(l by p personality of aly con
siderable strength. Both were nationally unknown. But the feel
ing of dissatisfaction was as great. It was not - dissatisfaction
with any specitic plank in the platform or policy of the present ad
ministration, It was with conditions as a whole.
condfistao’;]itftfgr:f fac}i'ct,l:;irlq ."N.l! l'm Inol . ma‘tcrial change in the
Pt S publicans and Democrots operate wonder
y alike. 1e nation will be benefitted, however, by the purely
psychological condition of increased confidence. The people who
voted for Hardmg and Coolidge had it figured out that Harding ond
Loolulgc Vyoul(l improve things. - They will take it for granted that
they will improve things. Acting on that imaginary prospect the
people, themselves, will improve things.
A Thought for the Evening
A VERSE AND A VIGNETTE
By Dan G. Bickers
THE TEMPTATION
The Tempter first assailed the citadel .
! Mmy firm faith, but with the Sword
I heat him off; he came again to tell
Ale specious things—things taken from ‘he Word
' Jtse'f—he challenged me to show
Fanatic, footish and unprofitable deeds
- Of rank presumption. 1 said, “No!”
Then, subtly he attempted to reveal the needs ;
Of consummation—and the thing itself was right—
< |He tempted me to compass it by devious ways,
Dishonesty, deceit! . ... .And in the might ,
- Of help divine 1 vanquished him, He plays .
The dang'rous game who listens to the voice
. That urgest the accomplishment of ends,
; Right in themselves by. weak or wicked choice
; Of means ignoble. [For this there are no amends!

AS to Live By

“ 1 WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HAVE BEEN
WITH HIM THEN"
Text, Matt. 6:15—15. - >
» The above title is a very natural expression of the desire native
to every heart to secure a fecling of realty in His religion.
We would rejoice to be able to recall the accents of that voice
which “spoke such words as never man spake,” to revive the memory
Jal that face beaming with joy, shadowed by Divine compassion,
kindling with creative thought or lighted with that tegrific “anger”
with which “He looked about upon them” when the “wrath of the
Lamb” gave a foregleam of its frightful refulgence which is resery
ed for the day of judgment. ;
~ Really in our religion we must have or life is a ghastly void.
However, in this “The Model Prayer,” 1 believe we Lave access
to the most secret hours and the most revealing experience of Jesus.
- This prayer you will note, is a prayer only possible for a child of
God-—ony a child can say “Father.” /
Now Jesus’ supreme thought of God is that he is a “Father’—
“His Father” Omitting the petition that reveals to us forgiveness,
every other petition of this prayer is suited to [esus’ own lips in a
particular manner, : :
| We read of his “whole nights” in prayer and we sigh, in the
words of the poem, “1 would like to have been with Him then.” ;
, Am lin error when I subject that, in this prayer, this wish is
granted, as it embraces in brief space all prayer.

First Step in Treatment Is a Brisk
Purgative With Calotabs, the
Purified and Refined Calomel
Tablets that are Nausea
less, Safe and Sure.
——— ’
Doctors have found by experience
that no medicine for colds and influ
enza tan be depended upon for full ef
fectiveness until the liver is made thor
oughly active. That is why the first
-step in the treatment is the new, nausea
less colomel tablets ecalled Calotabs,
which are free from the sickening and
weakening effects of the old style calo
mel, Doctors also point out the faet
that an active liver may go a long ‘way
towards preventing influenza and is one
of the most important factors in en
abling the paticnt to successfully with
stand an attack and ward off pneu
monia.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow of water—that’s
all. No saltg, no nausea nor the slight
estsinterference with your eating, pleas
ure or work. Next morning your cold
has vanished, your liver is active, your
system is purified, and you are feeling
fine, with a hearty appetite for break
fast, Druggists sell Calotabs only in
original sealed packages, price thirty
five cents. Your money will be cheer
fully refunded if you do not find theng

Oklahoma Farmer Gives Sound Ad
vice on Avoiding Sickness.—
Used Black-Draught
30 Years.
Cameron, Okla.—“l have used
Thedford’s Black-Draught for about
thirty years, and certainly ought to
know by this time what a good medi
cine it 45,” says Mr. T. L. Bostier, a
‘well-known farmer of this place. Mr.
‘Bostier has passed his three-score-and
tenth year, but declares his health
still is good, “and I can say Black-
Draught did its part.”
~ “Where there is a lot of malaris, a
liver medicine is a necessity, and I
‘have never found one better than
' Black-Draught,” ' continues the Okla
}homan. “It 18'one that I know to be
‘reliable.- I sure use it for the liver,
stomach, constipation, indigestion, and
it has done me a world of good. We
use it for the family, and it gives
satisfaction, ’
“Most trouble, or sickness, comes
from the liver, and if taken in time
can be avoided. That is why I use
Black-Draught as I do. I am much
pleased with results obtained.”
Thedford’s Black-Draught is purely
vegetable. It acts on the bowels, gent
ly stimulating the liver, and helps in
crease the normal flow of bile into the
intestines. It assists in the digestion
’ ot food, and relieves constipation in a
- prompt and natural way.
f Ask your druggist for a package to
' day. Insist on Thedford’s. NC-139
