Across the rolling hillj of life r -v#
A friendly highway leads,
A road whose every wondrous mile y
Is paved with noble deeds. ' \ m
For any man this course begins , A
Where will and judgment meet,
Where solemn purpose points the way
And kindness guides his feet.
J This highway is the only road
I That leads to great success;
f No other trail, no sidelong-path
Will find true happiness. Hi
Though up and down its route may run >'
It carries straight and far •
And gains at last that haven where
Life’s great possessions are.
1116 youth who sets a worthy goal
And formulates a plan
Of progress that enables him
To serve his fellow man
Begins at once to know the joys
That glorify and bless
The lives of those who daily walk
The Road of Happiness.

Entered at the poatoffice at Carroll
on, Tex a* as second-class matter.
We are about ready to agree
with the fellow who wrote the
song, “It aint agoin’ to rain no
more.”
You can te'l every “vote ’em
straight” Democrat by the
broad smile on his face since
Tuesday night.
School Notes
Well, its “Ma” for all now.
She won three elections and
two court decisions. Surely that
ought to quiet Buttei Zeke and
the rest.
“Ma” surely demonstrated
her strength in Carrollton. She
beat the combined strength
of the Republican and K. K. K.
by a majority of 38.
For sale, a surplus supply of
pillow cases and sheets. Ask
any K. K. K. for their reduced
rates from $16 to 16c, but ail
sales must be strictly confiden-
tial.
The weather man seems to
have mixed up his dates and
thinks November is March,
judging from the windy weather
this part of the country has
been having.
Yes! It’s‘‘Ma for all,” so you
had just as well "all be for Ma”
and help to make her term in
office one to be handed down
from generation to generation as
the best that grand old Texas
ever had.
The ministrel Friday night
was a success. The people of
Carrollton show by their attend-
ance that they are for the school.
$82.45 were the net proceeds.
This money will be used to help
buy our science and library
equipment.
Supt. Harris spent Monday
afternoon in Dallas buying equip-
ment for our science room. He
bought equipment to the amount
of $195 from C. A. Bryant & Co.
of Jallas, with a strict guaran
tee that the equipment will be of
such quality as to meet the ap-
proval of the State Department
of Education and will not be paid
for until the State Department
approves it.
Say Folks! Listen! The Inter-
mediate Chorus of the Carrollton
school with Miss Essie Mae
Jones as musical director and
Miss Mignon Hughes as pianoist
will entertain the people of Car-
rollton with a musical entertain-
ment, Fridiy night Nov. 14th,
Mrs. Good and her class of ex-
pression will assist them. The
proceeds of this entertainment
will also be put in our science
lund. All s^ats w ill be rescrv-] $1,000,000
Under the leadership of the Wom-
an’* Missionary Union, auxiliary to
the Southern Baptist Convention, the
Baptist women of the South are seek-

cash between now and the end of the
year for tha Baptlet 75 Million Cam-
paign. thus matching their subscrip-
tions In 1919, when the progrom was
launched with actual payments, It is
announced at Baptist headquarters.
The women were asked to assume
responsibility for $15,000,000, or one-
fifth of the goal of the Campaign,
but their subscriptions went far be-
yond this.
Their original goal ef $15,000,000
In oash had been reached by the
women June 1, 1924, and under the
leadership of Miss Kathleen Mallory,
correapondiag secretary of the
Woman’s Missionary Union, they are
making extra efforts to meet their
pledges as well as their quota. Thou-
sands of Baptlat women throughout
the South are practicing self-denial
In many ways In order to maka spec-
ial contributions to the missionary,
educational and benevolent enter-
prises embraced In the Campaign,
while other thousands who hava al-
ready paid out their subscriptions are
making special thank offerings that
the goal may be reaohed. Reports
indicate that thousands of Baptist
men as well will redeem their sub-
scriptions In full during this year.
Large Reaulte Obtained
Indicating some of the results that
had been realised from the Campaign
up to May 1, 1924, the general head-
quarters - reports that the foreign
ihUslon force has been increased over
100 per cent, while as many persons
have been baptized on the foreign
fields in the five years of the Cam-
paign as there were church members
there at the outset of this program
after 75 years of missionary effort.
In the realm of home missions the'
1,170 workers report the baptism of
203,632 persons, organization of 1,095
new churches and 3,383 now Sunday
schools, and the completion of the
