It was a beautiful and impressive scene that marked the ordination to the priesthood of Rev. B. F. Huske in St. Paul's Episcopal church on Sunday. In order that the service be not too j long, morning prayer was said at by Rev. J. Gordon, j of Williamston, giving a short intermission before the which began at At this hour a congregation assembled that was so large as to complete- overflow the church, many having to be turned away for lack of room. After an opening hymn Rev. R. W. of Chapel who preached the ordination announced his text and part of His subject was of the minister consistent with his He said that while men in other callings were more or less chosen for their business qualifications rather than personal character, when it comes to the minister of Christ he must be a man of char- and that character be con- with his calling. He said the minister must be a man of sacrifice, a man of faith, a man of prayer, a man of courage, a man of vision. Each of these were emphasized with force by the speaker and illustrated with beautiful figures. It was a sermon that a deep upon all who heard was delivered with marked earnest- and eloquence. Then with Rev. Robert Strange, bishop of the diocese of E stern Carolina, the impressive j ordination service was said. The priest was presented by Rev. Is W. Hughes, of Fayetteville. The other clergy present and taking part in the service were Revs. F. N. Skinner, of t, and W- J. Gordon, of Williams- ton. At the conclusion of Bishop Strange requested the congregation to join in silent prayer during a space of two minutes for Divine blessing j guidance upon the young priest to be ordained. This was was done devoutly and it was a moment of deep solemnity and earnest supplication to the Heavenly throne. The bishop an i all the visiting clergy then together that they might join in laying hands on the head of the kneeling priest. Bishop Strange handed a Bible and stole to the priest with the commission of authority to enter upon the full duties and obligation of the priesthood. In the large congregation were no more interested and happy than Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Huske, of Fayetteville, par- of the young priest, who with three others of their child- Messrs. M.

A short crop of wheat will bring the farmer as much or more money as a crop that is called a bumper crop, likewise tobacco. Having been in the business for years, a few years before the formation of the trust, I have seen tobacco lower before the trusts were formed than I have since. Taking the tobacco in Eastern North Carolina, in which have made my home and cast my lot, I realize that thin prim of this section is the most undesirable raised in the United States. I have ever advocated through your paper the importance of less acreage and better and the most essential of all, priming off the lower leaves and topping to a uniform height, thereby securing body and ripe- When the thin primings of Eastern North Carolina is eliminated, as it can be if these instructions are carried out, you will see tobacco with body that j trust to be a fair competitor, ; liberal buyers if they have offer- ed them such class tobacco as the consuming public demands. I have seen tobacco raised in Eastern North Carolina that was almost a gold brick in the hands of the trust, or independent, and the farmer should leave it in the fields to enrich their land. If they bring it to market they have no just cause of com- plaint, if it is sold at what they call starvation prices, for if this tobacco was manufactured by anyone, independent or trust, and put up in pretty packages, I guarantee the author of the article referred to would never buy but one package, and would probably take but one smoke from that. Now. is it reason able to suppose that tobacco would be manufactured, paying tax with ail other necessary cost, unless there was Borne demand for same Mr. Editor, I have said more than I intended, but if the author of this article herein referred to should desire to the further, I can give him facts and figures for tho past years in proof of con- herein. four very truly, E.

Hie new penny, quite an attractive coin, will be regarded as a curiosity, and the mintage being stopped when not many had been made, they will doubtless be much sought utter as souvenirs. The only ones The Reflector has bad the privilege of seeing were sent by Congress man John Small. The penny is about the size of the small ones already in use. One side has a bust picture of President Lincoln, circled above his head the sentence God e The word Liberty appears just behind his collar, and the figures 1909 in front of his breast. On the reverse side are two stems of grain forming a wreath about i thirds around the coin. four horizontal lines are one cent, United States of America, the words one cent being much than any others on it. Cir- above this very small letters is the sentence and near the op- edge under the stems of the wreath are the initials of the designer. The Reflector does think these are so conspicuous as U detract from the appearance of the coin, for they are so small that we had to look closely to find them at all. We are glad U get the coin and will keep it as a curiosity. The Reflector is glad to see that the Chamber of Commerce of Greenville is taking life once more and again taking action in matters pertaining to tie- welfare of the town. For several months past no meet- have been held, and while the meeting Tuesday night had a small attendance, it will be seen from the report in our news columns that matters of much importance to the community were considered. The CO opera- of every business man the town should enlisted this organization, and if this was given Greenville would be seen going forward much faster. The editorial comment of the Raleigh News and Observer on our report of the opening of the here, is unworthy the editor of a great State daily. Such language can have but one result, and no one better knows this than the editor of the News and Observer. When the editorial columns of a paper are constantly tilled with utterances, the average reader of average will soon come to the conclusion that there is some other motive besides public duty that puts them there, and then the purpose of such a paper as the News and Observer ought to be is defeated.

Several months ago a splendid sand-clay road was built for about two miles outward from the Atlantic Coast Line railroad. It cost considerable money to build this road, but it was money well expended. The road was constructed by the county with convict labor, under the direction of a government expert road engineer, and was intended as an experiment and object lesson to the people of the county that they might see what good roads could be con- of the material The building of this piece of sand-clay road proved a great success. Every- body wanted to ride over it, and all who did so praised its excel- It more people a part of the road over which the precinct road overseer had And anybody ac- with the prevailing sys- of keeping up county roads knows what this means This road has suffer- ed under the recent heavy ruins, and several bad washes and cuts appeared. We are told that the way these bad places were re- paired was by the neighborhood road hands throwing in a few shovels full of ordinary dirt. The idea of thinking a Ran road can be repaired this way It is worse than the Scriptural injunction not to patch a new garment with old cloth. It Would be no greater folly to try stop a leak in a metal or slate roof by nailing a shingle over the leak. Of course a sand- clay road should be repaired with the same material of which it is made. The county commissioners should have some to look after this road, and not leave its care to the ordinary road over- seer and neighbor road hands who in looking after the roads do no more than the law compels them to nobody blames them for it. foolish to Tyson celebrated his seventy second birthday last with a reunion of all of his children.

Intensive farming, the greatest yield per acre, is the order of the day with intelligent farmers, and it is spreading so rapidly that in the near future the man who e- follow this plan will be left so far behind that he will be considered in the class of producers.
