Gold and grey harmonize well with all colors, but silyer anpt nickel look particularly well against grey or blue. The greatest caution should be observed in the matter of using colered lanips and colored screens for general illumination. These are permissible only for special effects. A fancy trim involving the light from a fireplace is an example of the use to which red bulbs may be put. Moonlight effects can be obtained by blue colored lamps-However these somewhat fantastic devices should be confined strictly to scenic effects.

Page. I consider him a clean, strong, capable man; brave enough to deal candidly, openly and fairly with the people all the people. But I did not support him. Not because I loved him less, but because I loved Cam Morrison more, and deemed him the logical, the ideal candidate for governor of the state for which he has done so; much. Cameron Morrison is easily the peer of any living North Carolinian.

In the acme of splendid manhood, he stands forth with a strong and vigorous body; a keen, incisive intellect; a big, sympathetic heart; a clear, large vision of duty; a dauntless, progressive spirit; a tongue of burning eloquence; and a char acter without stain notwithstanding the secret efforts of dirty slander mongers to besmirch him with their foul lies.
