: JIt seems that, when one is par
ticularly desirous of swindling the
phblic, they invariably begin on
tiije editor and his paper. Only a
short time ago one Daniel V. Davis
of: MockBville, N, O., R 3; sent out
a manuscript to every paper in the
Fjdmont section on “When to cut
tojbacco,’’ and practically every one
of them published the article for
tfie benefit of the farmers of the
BCction. As a closing remark
Davis asked any who might be in
tetested to write him and he would
gliadly give them any information
he could on the subject. So far so
good, but here is where Davis
comes in for his part of the reward.
He has charged each and every one
who wrote him the sum of- $2.50
for. the information and asked the
special request of-each one not. to
divulge the secret to any of his
neighbors. Besides, the informa
tion is believed to be a plain fake,
asjthe methods he dishes out" at
$2,50 per are absolutely impracti
cable.'
JDavis sent his article to The
Landmark on at least two different
occasions, but it went to the waste
basket each time. The newspaper
mpn ought to exercise more judg
ment.. Then they wouldn’t get
faked nor help to fake others,—

Seems that the longer the Demo

TheNorthCarolina legislative is
in session, which no doubt accounts
for the cold mornings that were with
us last week. That legislature is
eaough to put a frost on most any
thing.
The cotton season is upon us, and
here’s hoping that the farmers will
get at least 20 ceftts for every pound
of their cotton. They will need it,
for the price of everything under the
sun is advancing instead of decreas
ing.
TheTradeandSalesDay is next
Monday. We want every man, wo
man and child in Davie county to be
present. There will be a fat man’s
race, a free for all race, a sack race,-
and a greasy pole climbing contest,
besides a large list of premiums for
the farmers’ produce. Gome to
town next Monday and enjoy the
day.
We have made it a point to see
practically all of the merchants, the
lawyers, doctors and business men
of the town, and have asked them to
give a premium for trade day. By
looking at the list of premiums you
will notice that Wehavenotmetwith
the success that we should have had.
A number of the town’s leading citi
zens turned us down for one reason
or another They cannot realize
that these trade days mean much to
each and every citizen of the town,
and we cannot see how anyone can
refuse to help in the good work.
Study over the Hstof premiums, and
you will see who is trying to help
the town grow, and who want to at-
tractpeople to the town to do their
trading.
The Devil’s Trap.
- Rev. R. L. Brown.
To speak of this under one head
would be very difficult: But when
we say “Society,” we think we come
as near reaching the right word as
any one in the category of crime
Not that we mean to say society is a
crime, but that the devil has his trap
hid under this word. He has carried
society so far, that good Christian
people, who are rightly entitled to
the name, are almost ashamed to be
placed under that head.
Society is a pleasant word, and
carries many things with it of a
very pleasant character; in fact, it
would be the word above many other
words if the devil could be kept out
of it. But at the present day he
claims a large per cent of what is
now called up-to-date society.
This statement, no doubt, will
bring forth many curses and epithets
against the writer: but after you are
done calling him by the name fool,
dolt, idiot, simpleton, nincompoop,
blockhead, dance etc., the facts in
the case are the same in time and
etemitv and will justify the above
statements.
While it might.not be wise to put
in print every thing of a sinful char,
acter that is now in so«iety, we may
ba able to speak so we can be under
stood. Werefer, -
1st. To the society dress. Well,
says one, every body has a right to
dress as they please. Yes^that is
what the devil says; but the civil law,
d^aency and religion do not say so.
But it seems that many dress as they
please any way; and do it for a pur
pose; and we believe that purpose is
to excite the sexual passions of men,
or the opposite sex. Whosoever
lopketh on a woman to lust after he?
'hath committed adultery inhisheart
with her already. And it is just as
much sin for the woman to look on
the maw in the same-wav. And when
they dress so as to excite this passion
they have already committed adulr
tery in their hearts. Biit these are
■ society, arid the fasionabie dres;;
just so, but you can see where the
condemnation goe3 with them. ,
2nd. Isthe sociables; and with
these go many other things. While
we might not be justifiable in con
demning all sociables; we are frank
to say there-are but few where the
devil is not dancing round to see
where he can put in a word, look or
deed that will help to make material
for his place of abode.
Inmanyof these sociables they
must hop round a little, sing non-re
ligious songs, or sit down and have a
game of cards. 0, says one, there
is no harm in a game of cards; why,
preachers play cards. Yes, some
preachers do things that are delicious
feasts for the devil. Do you want
to help feed the devil? We heard
young lady say she learned to play
cards from a preacher. While this
is true, it is heart rending to the
truly and devoted Christian. But
this is a part of society, and how
many persons have been lead into
gambling, and how many souls lead
to torment, by such preachers,
eternity alone can tell. And unless
they repent—well, we will leave
their souls in the hands of their God
The writer of this article is also
preacher, and knows whereof he
speaks; and where the preacher is in
error he should be removed asy well
as others. Yes, and lots of church
members play cards; that is so, and
many of the members of the church
are far out of the way; and no won
der when the preachers lead them
there. Who will account for this in
eternity?
The writer was in the late war,
and if.it ever was advisable to play
cards for pass time, it looks as if that
would have been the place. Many
of them did.play cards; but as a con
scientious condemnation of the card
business, when they were going into
a battle the sides of the roads were
strewed with cards. Well Why?
What is the -matter with you my
brother soldier? Well we are afraid
we might get killed in this battle
and we do not want to die. with
deck of cards in our pockets. This
is positive evidence there is some
thing wiong about card playing. It
is not the thing when we come to
die. We have heard of- people who
have asked for the Bible when on
their death bed; but never have
heard of any one wanting a deck of
cards placed under the pillow when
dying. .
Drinking also goes with these
sociables. -And this drinking is not
confined to the outside would. We
are told that in some of these soci
ables some have to be carried home
on stretchers; and these festivals are
lead by first class sociecy women.
How many of these are caught in the
devil’s trap we are not able to say.
It is sure alarming to know that the
evil one has such a strong hoid on
some of our leading members of the
church. They need not be surprised
if they are beaten with many stripes
3rd. Dancing in its various forms
is another part of society work.
This begins in the parlor, the family
or home circle, and for amusement;
but it leads to the dancing school,
the waltz and to the house of ill fame.
After this habit is formed, girls are
often at a dance when the parents
think they are at the church; and
when they once get into the habit
right, they will go to every dance
within reach. Why are they so anxi
ous to go to the dancing parties? If
it is the hopping over the floor for
exercise, then let the girls keep it
with their own sex alone; and let the
young men do likewise. Butthis is
not satisfactory; they must have
their opposit sex, because there is a
sexual feeling in the case.. And in
these mixed dances, the girls will
allow the young men to put. their
arms around them and their hands
about them in such a way as they
would discard with vengeance out
side ef the dance. The young men
know this; and will pronounce her
an unacceptable partner if she does
not allow it. Beside-Jihat the young
men take this occasion to whisper, in
her ear such words as. would have
been considered Satanic if whispered
before their passions were, aroused.
Many, if not-most of'the.young men.
go to these dances with this object
in, view; and if they cannot reach the
desired end otherwise, they will in
troduce drink, and claim that it be
longs to society; and after the girl
takerone glass she will want another,
JoH^^soon have her where they
r^her, and lfer virtues are ruined
for ever. '• . •
It seems that'I can almost hear the
dancers thundering over these exr
pregsiona right now; arid ’breathing
out such expressions against the
write? as an inventive, creative and
poetical fool; but this does not de
stroy;tSjgtruth as told above. Let
us produce Some facts to prove what
we have said. An investigation was
made of a certain brothel, (bad
house) with two hundred or more
inmates; and when the question was
asked “what lead you to this place.”
Pour fifths of them frankly confessed
it was through the dance, the ball
room and the like.
An old legion says a member of
the church fell dead at a .dance;
Michael the archangel came for his
soul, but at the same time the devil
also appeared, said he was his be-:
cause he caught him on his premises,
and he went on to torment with his
soul.
Now with all these facts before
us, is it not alarming to see where
society is leading the world, and the
church? And what adds to the
criminality of these things is, the
part taken by . the members of the
church and some preachers, and the
silence of others along: this line; and
perhaps they are afraid they will dis
please some on* of their society
members. Whynotcry aloud and
spare not lest somebody’s blood be
required at our hands. For this rea
son this article is written; for God
will call us to an account for silence
on these things and much more so
for taking part in them.
I would ask parents to look after
their children with prayerful atten
tion, because the temptations are
very strong. If you want them to
dance or to attend these soeietys,
then you almost say you want them
to be lost. AU whoremongers shall
have their part in the Isdce that
bumeth with fire and brimstone. A
dancer while dying in great agony
said “Mother, you learned me how
to dance, but not.how to die.” We
can but imagine, the feeling of that
mother’s heart. We fear, eternity
will reveal many such things where
parents have been careless with their
ehijdren.
I;leave the subject to be decided
between the guilty and their God.

One man and one horse can easily sow 6 to 8 acres per:, day. The Cole Drill works equally well on prepared land or between the rows of cotton or other crops. •You can get it with Fertilizer Attachment or without it. The Cole
never fails to sow any kind of oats. It works smoothly and never gives any trouble. Ithastwo wheelsin the rearnot shown in the picture, which carry the Drill when going to or from the field, and also regulate the depth of the plows. It sows either two rows or three rows of grain
at each trip.With the Cole Drill you can save five-sixths of the time and expense of sowing grain. The way to do is to sow grain between rows of
cotton or other crops. Land that has been cultivated all summer is in
fine condition frr growing grain without any further preparation.. You can sow’the grain at the right time without any damage to
cotton even if it is so rank that, it meets in.the middle. Early sowing not
only makes a sure crop but'a bigger yield. . . •Gathering the crop does no damage to the grain and running a stalk
cutter in the winter or spring does the grain more good than harm.Like all Cole machines they are fully guaranteed and you are sure to
get good value or get.your money back.
The prices are as low as the quality of the machines would permit
and the prices are the same to everybody. ~ •

Caagbt in the Act
A crowd of young men around
town thought they would go to
preaching in the country one night
recently. Ether on their way out
or on the return trip thought they
needed some watermelons and with
out taking the time or trouble to
ask the owner for them, they went
into the patch to help themselves.
But your uncle Beubed was on the
watch, swooped down on the buuch
and made them dig up one dollar
apiece—$17 in all. Moral: Either
buy your melons or be more cer
tain of the way the land lays.—

USE OF CALOMEL
PRACTICALLY STOPPED
Dangerous Drug Giving Way for Safer,
More Reliable Remedy.
Hundreds of people in this vicinity
alone have stopped the use of dan
gerous calomel when their liver is
acting slowly, and take Dodson’s
Liver Tone instead.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is always safe
and has none of the bad after-effects
which so often follow the use of calo
mel. It is a pleasant tasting vege
table liquid that starts the liver
gently and surely, and relieves con
stipation and biliousness and causes
no restriction of habit or diet.
Many preparations have sprung up
that imitate the claims made for
Dodson’s Liver Tone, but remember
Dodson’s Liver Tone is the tried and
tested remedy that has proven such
a good medicine and is so satisfactory
to every user—is the reason' these
imitations are on the market.
Dodson’s Liver Tone cannot hurt
anyone and if it fails to do all that
is clamied for it D. H. Hendricks &
Sens, Bixby, N. C., who sells it, will
give your money back with a smile.
The sooner a fool is parted from
his money why less the danger to
the public in general.
Remarkable Cure of Dysentery.
“I was attacked with dysentery abuut
July 15th, and used the doctor’s medicine
and other remedies with no relief, only
getting worse all the time. I was unable
to do anything and my weight dropped
from 145 to 125 pounds. I suffered for
about two months when I was advised to
use Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. I used two bottles of
. it and it gave me permanent relief," writes

Good Reason for His Enthusiasm.
When a. man has suffered fdr several
days with colic, diarrhoea or other form
of bowel complaint and is then cured
sound and well by one or two doses of
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy, as is often the case, it is but
natural that he should be enthusiastic in
his praise of the remedy, and especially is
this the case of a severe attack-when life

people to buy from home merchants
and to get them in the habit of us

should be waged in every community.
The amount of money sent out of
every town to buy things away from
home that could be bought at home
for the same money or for less,
would add much to the business and
prosperity of every community. The
buying away from home habit is, in
nine cases out of ten, simply a habit
and the advantage in such buying
imaginary. In many cases the buyer
suffers positive loss. It is always
well to remember, too, that we owe
something to the community in which
we make our living and that if every
body spent their money elsewhere
nobody could do business in the home

“Justice to The Bat.”
justice, in Union Republican.
j[r. Editor: I have been asked
6o often why I had quit writing for
your paper, 'both personally and by
letters, that I think it probably in-
cuinhent on me to give my reasons
through your paper to those who
have been accustomed to reading
wbat I had to say in the past.
jfy main reason can be found in
the (itk verse of the 7th chapter of
Jlatkew which those who care to
inquire can read for themselves.
There seemed to be a studied ef-
fort on the part of some to destroy
the Republican party and every
thing I wrote was tortured in some
fashion to be turned against the
party and againft your paper for
printing what I had to say. This
did imt affect the large majority of
the Republicans, as will appear
from an examination of the returns
for, taking thiB county as a sample,
Jfr. Taft received a much* greater
number of votes than Mr. Rooae-
velt, notwithstanding that the
Roosevelt element had the party
machinery and resorted to all kinds
of tricks and treachery to get votes
for Mr. Eoosevelt and try and run
him ahead of Mr. Taft.
But only a Iea drops of poison
in the fountain destroys the whole
stream and so it was in our last
campaign. Then why should I
write? • We had sixteen years of
the greatest prosperity that this or
any other couutry ever saw, every
hour of which had been under the
policies and laws of the Eepubli
can party and yet it was those for
whom the party had done the most
who turned upon it and were the
most ardent in their efforts for its
destruction. Their efforts will be
iu vain just as the passing eloud
may for a time shut out the rays
of the 9un, but it soon passes and
the sunshine returns all the bright
er by reason of its short exclusion
and so it will be by the return of
the Republican party to power and
the fiual result will be fchat those
who have betrayed the people with
this movement will be dispised by
all honest men.
Prom what I have said your
readers can well understand thy
reasons for not writing, but before
closing this I want to call their at
tention to the article on the first
pagein The Eepublican in the
issue of AuguBt 7th, when the
Treasurer says the State expenses
last year were $3,687,736.48 and I
wanttoaskyour readers to con
trast this with the expenses under
the Republicans in 1896, 1897 and
when the laws under and by reason-
of which the State expenses were
paid were passed by the Fusion
legislatures of 1895 and 1897, The
total State expenses in 1896 were
81,246,566.27; in 1897 they were
$1,364,048.29 and in 1808, $1,287,-
811.18. ThuB in three years the
Republicans spent $3,898,255,74,
while last year the Democrats spent
$3,687„736.48, or in, round num
bers the Republicans ran the State
government three years oh what
the Democrats spent in one.
There is another fact that I wish
Io call to the attention of your
readers and that is that the Gover
nor stated in his message to the
Henerai Assembly when it met last
lIenuary that there was a deficit in
Ihc State Treasury of seven hun
dred and twenty-five thousand dol
lars and that Legislature passed a
hrw to issue over eleven hundred
thousand dollars in bonds to meet,
this deficiency and fjpr other pur
poses. Kow contrast this seven
hundred and twenty-five thousand
dollar deficiency,with 'this -state
ment made by the examining com
mittee in its report to the Legisla-
< ture °f 1899, which was Demo-
oratio, which says: “We also find
that after all the appropriations
rnade by the general assembly had
been paid, there was in the treasury
00 the 30th day of Kovember, 1898,
the sum of $185,279.91. Tbe\&
mount shown tp be In the treasury
by the Treasurer’s books on Kov-
ember 30th, 1898 was verified -by
actual count.” This report was
signed by B. F. Dixon, the late
Auditor, John A. Kamsey, J. W .
Atwater and W. P. Ormsby. Con
trast this report which can be
found on Page 51 in the Treasurer’s
report published in. Public Docu
ments for 1899, a copy of which is
in the Clerk’s office of every Coun
ty. which the report in the Gover
nor’s message, a clean cut surplus,
with every appropriation paid un
der the Eepublicana of nearly twb
hundred thousand dollars and a
deficit of nearly three quartern of a
million under the Democrats, not
withstanding the tact that they
Bpent in round numbers three times
what the Eepublicans did.
Another fact comes to my mind
and that is that the State’s credit
was never as high before nor since
as it was when the Republicans
turned the State over to the Re
publicans turned the State over to
the Democrats in 1899. One hun
dred and ten thousand dollars of
State Four per cent, bonds were
sold that year and were bought by
the Wachovia Loan & Trust Co.,
and they brought nearly one hun
dred and twenty thousand dollars
the premium being over nine and a
quarter. That is every hundred
dollar bond brought over one hun
dred and nine and a quarter dollars
Today the State is trying to sell
the bonds issued by the last legis
lature at par and can’t get a bid
for any decent amount of them
So much for the State. Now one
fact as to the nation and I am done.
When the Republicans were v Tn
power the Government • two per
cent bonds were worth much more
than par, while they dropped so
much below par since the Demo
crats took charge of the govern
ment in March that Mr. McAdoo,
the Secretary oi the Treasury ac
tually came out in an article and

was absolutely untrue.

The Amendments.
Charity and Children.
We cannot escape the feeling
that the demand for amendments
to our constitution is much ado a-
bout notniug. The work of the
cdmimission has amounted to very
little. The amendments they pro
pose, are for the most part harm
less, and a few of them are im
provements, but the . game was
hardly with the candle. The con
stitution in its present shape is i
fairly good document. We do not
exactly understand the motive be
hind it all. There was certainly
no popular demand for it and we
could have struggled along under
the constitution as it stands a few
vears longer without serious injury
to our institutions. The best pro
position that was offered, namely,
the clothing the Governor with the
veto power was rejected, and the
worst which was the negative and
dangerous paragraph relating to
the reading of the Bible in. our
public school was accepted. While
Charity and Childreh has small in
fluehce upon the Legislature, we
must be permitted to express the
hope that our out this Bible busi
ness and address themselves to
m atters of moment ror the good of
the State. W ehavegone to a lot
of expense and trouble to amend
the constitution and it will be a
pity if we worsen rather help that
.ancient document. The real work
before the Legislature will be not
the amendment of the constitution
but the regulation of the freight
rates that are now so oppressive
and unjust.
Whose Ox is Gored?
A farmer was arrested and fined
the other morning for. selling some
abulterated milk, adulterated with
a little harmless water. He wore
at the same time a suit of all Wool
(?) clothes badly adulterated with
shoddy materials, and boots whose
soles were adulterated with papery
or wood shavings. For breakfast
he drank adulterated coffee, bis
meat was spiced with adulterated
pepper, his cakes powder, his
pickles soured with adulterated
vinegar, his pie was seasoned with
adulterated spice, his wife was Oitt
of sorts because she could not make
bread out of adulterated flour that
had been run in on her for . the
best.” In fact he saw and ielt
the effects of adulteration which
ever way he looked, and had never
heard of the adulterators being ar-i
rested before, Yet there are those
who blame the farmer for complaip-
ing of being discontented.—Char

South fountain Blockade Scene in
Moving Pictures.
Morganton Dispatch to Charlotte
Observer.
The South. Mountain section of
Burke, which seems to -have ' be
come the IeadiDgv^stronghold of
“moonshiners” in tne country and
the scene Ot numerous feudal fights,
will be portrayed to the world by
motion pictures.
The officers have been taking
two or three stills a week in this
section and Officer Kanipe has had
a moving picture man in readiness
iqr some time, waiting until a fully
equipped plant could be found in a
good locality to produce moving
pictures. Last Friday one in full
blast was found. The outfit was
guarded and the picture man noti
fied, and the entire processvof.hunt-
ing, finding and capturing a still
was carried out, including a break
for escape and recapture.
- The picture man had provided
blank cartridges and the prisoners
gladly aided in carrying out the
effect of a pitched battle. During
the scramble along the mountain
side a large rock was accidentally
loosened, which rolled down the
mountain, striking Officer Boger
on the leg and inflicting a painful
wound,
The strikingfeatureofthe pic
ture will be the natural equipment.
It is not a faked up still, but was
located three miles from any road
and in a ravine.

Themerchant who advertises
the man who gets the trade. You
never heard of a man making a suc
cess in life who was afraid to use
printer’s ink.
The new door keeper in Davie
county is on to his job it seems, even
if he was self-appointed. The coun
ty would have been bettpr off if some
of the outsiders had been kicked out
of the town long time ago. Some
people are always talking too much
anyway.
The good road to the depot has
been completed, and The Record
. wishes to take this method of public
ly thanking the mayor and board of
town commissioners for their good
work. No better use could have
been made of the people’s money
than to spend it in building good
roads. The next thing is to improve
the sidewalks between the court
house and Nortli Mocksville. At
some places they are almost impas
sible at times. Let the street com
mittee get busy before winter sets
in.
TheGovemorof North Carolina
has designated Nov. 5th and 6th as
good roads day, and calls on every
able-bodied man in the state to
shoulder a pick'or shovel and get
busy on those two days, and help to
make better roads. We are in sym
pathy with the governor, and hope
that every man in Davie county will
spend these two days in helping to
improve the roads. A number of
of lazy Democrats and Republicans
say they will not work, but it is
hoped that most of the people who
have any pride for the county will
march forth and throw dirt. The
governors of Missouri and Kansas
marched out on the roads for two
days and worked from sun to sun,
and neither-have died as a result.

fine in the North West. The dry.
hot weather of the Middle West did
not reach us. This county (Uma

of the total wheat crop of the United

Caught By Runaway Team and Ribs
Broken.
Mr. J. W. Koon of Harmony was painfully hurt Tuesday, by a runaway team.
Mr. Koon and Mr. Crocket Paris were in a buggy, driving a mule, and were going towards the depot along the road from the Kincaid Furniture
Co. Looking back they saw a runa
way team to a wagon coming behind them. Not having time to clear'the road and expecting the team to di: vide and jam the end of the tongue
against the buggy. Mr. Koon jump
ed out from the buggy. He was caught under the team and four or
five ribs on the left side were broken
by the brake rod of the wagon. Mr. Koon’s wounds were dressed.Mr. Paris remained in the buggy
and was not hurt by the collision. The runaway team belonged to Mr. J. R. Albea and started from where they were being fed.—S.tatesville Landmark.
Scotch Irish Township Voted A-
gainst Bonds.
By a vote of 90 to 23, Scotch Irish
township, Rowan county, Wednesday
decided against a bond issue of $20,-
OOO for good roads. A special from
Salisbury to the Charlotte Observer,
giving the result of the election,
said:
-‘‘Many of those who voted against
the issue contend that it is not good
policy for the townships > to issue
bonds at present, but favpr an issue
by the county as a whole.”
And they began to make excuse.
If it had been a county bond issue
the-township method would have
been favored, — Statesville Land-

Farming and banking go hand in hand. One is necessary to the
other. The banker realizes his dependence upon the farmer, and
the farmer knows he cannot get along without the banker. ■ Itu a- mutual proposition, after all. And that’s what brings success in- a large measure to all of us—helping each other, ;
It has always been the policy of this bank to co-operate and help the farmer. We have always tried to take "care of his needs and
assist him in every way possible and we believe what we have done has been appreciated.
Now, farmer friends, when you sell your farm products and have money to deposit, remember us, and when you need money we’ll remember you.

$10,000 was raised toward a fund

stood in line to enjoy the osculatory
performance.
AU the women were single. One
married woman, seeking to do her
part, compromised by shaking
hands with all comers at 25 cents
a stake. One of the victims, her
husband, she charged $2. In all
$31,232 was raised, and with an

has raised to build the hospital

StiU “Burning the Wind.”
Accidents by automobiles keep
on multiplying, the more automo
biles the more accidents. That
part of the public which walks is
kept in a state of tremor by the
speed crazed automobilists, who
risks his own life and those in his
car by his determination to '‘burn
tne'wind.” The law ought to pun
ish heavily every chauffeur who
causes death. That is the way to
put on the brakes of prevention.—
Raleigh News and Observer.
Good Reason for His Enthusiasm.
When a man has suffered for several
days with polic, diarrhoea or other form
of bowel complaint and is then cured
sound and well by one or two doses of
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy, as is often the case, it is but
natural that he should be enthusiastic in
his praise of the remedy, and especially is
this the case of a severe attack when life
is threatened. Try it when in need of
such a remedy. H never fails. Sold by

The Red Springs Citizen hits the

“The split skirt with scanty ap

knocks from the Vf ilmington Star

Home is the place to correct the
evil, and mothers should be held
responsible for the sSias of their
daughters in this respect. Any
how, girls don’t make the fashions,
but only put them into effect, and
they couldn’t wear such notorious
garments uniess they were furnish
ed by their home folks. A nation
al law or an appeal to the home is
the only remedy, for any girl who
wears a split skirt such as those
said to be worn in Wilmington,
cares very little for the newspaper
man’s opinion, but rather enjoys
the write up.”

writing of her experience with Cardui, the woman’s
tonic. She says further: “Before I began to use
Cardui, my back and head would hurt so bad I
thought the pain ,.would kill me. I was hardly able
to do any of my housework. After taking three bottles
of Cardui, I began to feel like a new woman. I soon
gained 35 pounds, and now, I do all my housework
as well as run a big water mill. ’

Headache, backache, side ache, nervousness

6 furor that was raised over the
0l°n of the Charlotte school
aot^’ recentlJr* because it saw fit
t0 emPloy two Catholio young
ladies to teach, and the profound
silence of the press, except .those
papers that censured t>a board,
shows how well the Catholics nian-
age to manipulate public sentiment
in their favor in a state almost
solidly anti-Catholic, This thing
of refusing to elect teachers because
they are Methodists, Baptists,
Ppresbyterians and Episcopalians
is done every year. Some school
boards, being all members of one
church, sometimes elect only those
teachers that belong to their own
denomination, and no lawyers ever
appear in anybody’s behalf and no
screaming head likes tell the story
to the waiting world. But let a
Catholic be touched and the cry of
persecution is immediately raised
and thedailiesandtheirsyeophants
read solemn IectureB to the men
who dare discriminate against a
great denomination. Perhaps the
Catholic church is not strengthened
by such tactics, but it is tiresome
to see newspapers appoint them
selves the defenders of the faith,
and deliver their preachments in"
favor oi liberty ot speech and ac
tion, the eternal separation of
church and state, and other ancient
axioms. The Catholics have our
newspapers, that is our daily pa
pers, nailed down hard and fast,
but they are not winning any new
recruits among the people.—Chari
ty and Children.
Free and Unhobbled.
The Wellington Kas., Journal
has ideas of its own about dress
and about eating. Hear it.
Man drinks whiskey that dogs
the valves; he drinks beer, and
that clogs the wheels; he downs
lemonade, ginger ale, buttermjlk,
ice tea, coffee and what not, and
then wonders why the boilers do
not burst. If youshouldtake an
ox and put him through a like per
formance he would be dead in a
month. Tha simplest and plainest
laws of health are outraged every
day by the average man. Did Adam
smoke? Did Eve wear a corset?
Did Solomon chew tobacco? Did
the children of Isrel make for a
beer garden after crossing the Bed
sea? Did Bebecca chew chocolate
bonbons and ice cream and call for
soda water?
Adam was the first man and was
made perfect from head to heel—
how long would he remain so after
eating pie before going to bed?
Suppose, he had slept in a bed
room 5 by 7, , with the windows
closed down, the doors shut and
two dogs under the bed!
Suppose Eve had been laced up
in a corset, worn tight shoes, hob
ble fig leaves and sat up all hours
of the night eating chicken Balad
and Welsh rare-bits and trying to
keep on four pounds of dead peo
ple’s hair?
Threatens to Read From the Pulpit
Names of Persons Recemng Liquor.
In a sermon last Sunday nighl,
Rev. Geo. D. Herman, pastor of
the Methodist church of Wades-
boro, talked about the evil of liquor
drinking and especially drinking
in secret, and the course of his rejj
marks Mr. Herman, according to
the Wadesboro Messenger^ made
the following statement:
“If bo much of this drinking is
not stopped I am going to go to the
express office and get a list of those
who are /receiving whiskey, and
read their names out from the pul
pit and the amount received by
them. If they are not ashamed to
have whiskey come to their ad
dress. I am not ashamed to read
their names to the public. Secret
drinking is ten times worse , than
that of public drinking, for it
makes both a coward and a sneak
of the man who is ashamed for his
shortcomings to become known.”
A silent partner is one who gen
erally lets his money do the talking
for him.
EASY REUEF
FROM CONSTIPATION
The Remedy that Replaces Calomel—
Causes No Restriction of
Habit or Diet.
Itis a mistake to take calomel when
your liver is lazy and needs tpnirig
up. Hundreds of people in this sec
tion have discovered that Dodson’s
Liver Tone is a thousand times bet
ter and safer and its action is just as
sure. There are none of the bad
aftereffects of calomel to Dodson’s
Liver Tone and no danger of saliva-
tion.
For attaeks of constipation or bili
ousness one or two spoonfuls of this
mild, pleasant tasting vegetable
liquid are enough and D. H. Hen
dricks & Son, Bixby, N. C.,.gives a
personal guarantee that every bottle
will do all that is claimed for. it.
Money back in any case where it
fails.
Dodson’s Liver Tone costs oniy 50
cents for a large bottle. Remember
the name because there are any num
ber of remedies sold in imitation of
Dodson claims Same of them have
names very similar to Dodson’s Liver
Tone—and are in same color pack
age. These imitations are not guar
anteed and may be very harmful.
Go to D. H1 Hendricks & Son, Bixby,
N. C., and you will surely get the'
genuine.
Cost of Living Hangs Aronnd High
^Average.
The cost of living on June 15 was
approximately 60 per cent higher
than the average between 1890 and
1900; more than 3 per cent higher
than it was a year ago and nearly
15 per cent higher than it was two
years ago.
Investigations of retail prices in
40 cities conducted by experts of
the Bureau of Labor show prices
practically at the same level as last
November when the high records
of the last quarter century Were
reached.
Fourteen articles of food were in
vestigated and compared with the
average prices between 1890 and
1900. Every one except sugar
showed a marked advance; bacon,
which led in the soaring, went up
128.5 per eent.
Whether to attack the American
Tplephoneaud Telegraph Company,
tiiie so-called Bell telephone trust
—riinder the Sherman anti-trust
law is being considered by Attorney
General McBeynolds.
;7 /More complaints from independ
ent telephone interests that the big
Company is crushing competition
have been received recently by the
Attorney General, who says that,
he must sooD decide whether the
Department of Justice would await
the conclusion of the Inter State
Gpihinerce Commission’^ inquiry
or hadertake an investigation with
the purpose of bringing a civil suit
if the facts warrant.
1 Again the Meat Supply.
The responsibility of averting a
future meat famine was put up to small.farmers by speakers at the
eighth annual convention of the American Meat Packers’ Convention
in; Chicago this week. All agreed
that if the decrease in meat produc
tion of the last 10 years is not stop
ped, the question of the meat supply
for the people of the United States
will be most serious./, Among the remedies suggested by
the Speakers were: Every small farmer should raise at least two beef steers a year to offset the decreased
production of the West; development
of the hills of New England with
their bountiful springs and prevail
ing shade as a beef producting coun
try; substitution of ,com for cotton Ih the Southern States and the con
sequent development of cattle' and
hog production.
Among otner causes for the short
age of meat, the report pointed out another loss of meat food animals
through preventable diseases and
“the unthinking slaughter of calves
and especially heifer calves.”

C. FRANK STROUD Editor,
TELEPHONES 51 AND 64.
Elntered at the Postoffice in Mocks-

matter, March 3.1903.
TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION:
One Year, in Advance. .............50c

WEDNESDAY, OCT. 15, 1913.
The fellow who buys all his goods
out of the countv doesn’t help the
county in which he lives, and will
hardly be missed when he is buried.
Don’t know how many people in
Mocksville are able to own automo
biles, but feel sure that it will be
some time before the editor is able
to purchase one without it can be
bought on credit._______
When the price of cotton goes up
the Democrats hollow that they are
responsible. When the price of
meat goes up a notch they yell that
supply and demand is the cause of it
all. Strange._________
The Kecord don’t know how much
whiskey is shipped to Mocksville each
week, nor whether it is consumed by
church members, Christians or. in
fidels, and furthermore it is not our
business to keep track of such things.
A big number of those 126 men
whom we had to cut off of our sub
scription books because they were
more than a year behind, are still off
our books because they are still a
year behind. Better call or send us
the money before it is too late.
It is now said that the price of
beefsteak Vill ge to $1 per pound.
Let her go. As long as people are
allowed to butcher young heifer
calves, so long will the price of meat
advance. Wehave a senator and
representative at Raleigh who should
introduce a bill to prevent the kill
ing of all calves under 12 months old.
Why they don’t do this we cannot
conceive.
Instead of introducing law to pro
test ,the birds in Davie county, a law
should be passed to do away with
the worthless dogs that kill the
birds. Ourlawmakers are afraid
to introduce a bill to tax the worth
less dog. It is hoped that when the
next campaign comes around that
men will be elected to office who are
not afraid to put a tax on the dogs
For a long time we were under the
impression that the land in South
Carolina was the poorest to be "found
anywhere in the south, but we Vere
mistaken. After taking a trip
through South Carolina and Georgia
we have come to the conclusion that
Georgia has South Carolina skinned
a block on poor lands. For a dis
tance of nearly two hundred miles
through Georgia we saw but three
or four fields in cultivation, and they
were too poor to sprout a North
Carolina politician.
Davie is one of the best counties
in the State, and with good roads
running in all directions from Mocks
ville, there is no reason why the
county should not increase its popu
lation 25 per cent, within the next
few years. The roads will be com
pleted within two years, and then
the county will begin to make rapid
strides in the right direction. In
the meantime it would be a good
idea for the citizens of the town to
get busy and secure some outside
capital with which to build a new
factory or two for the town.
Somepeoplearefools enough to
think that The Record wants the
price of cotton to go down tb 10 or
12 cents a pound. We want cotton
to go to at least twenty cents a pound
for we figure that the farmer will
need the money. Our living, or a
good part ef it, comes from the
farmer wh® raises cotton, and we
would indeed be a sorry fellow to
want cotton to drop. Everything
the farmer raises will have to go up
if he comes out even, for everything
he has to buy is higher today than
it was a year ago.
ANOTHER TRADE DAY. .,
The ladies will be remembered at
the next Trade/ Day,, which will
doubtless be held the first Monday
in December. It is thought best not
to have a Trade Day next month, as
court will be in session the second
week in November, and the farmers
c will have to be hefe then and cannot
loseso much time. We think it
,would be a good idea to give premi
ums for fancy work, preserves, best
bread, cake, etc. Arrangements will
be made to use the up stairs in the
old court house for. the various ex
hibits, and a lady will be in charge
of this department, and will look
after the articles. The premiums
for the next Trade Daywill be larger
add better than ever, and there will
be more of them. Some races will
also be on the program, together
with a shoe race, a bicycle race, a
baby contest, a beauty contest for
all the young ladies, and premiums
for many things that the farmers
wives know so well how to make.
Every citizen of Mocksville who is
interested in Trade Day, and who
wants to help along in this good
work, is requested to meet at The
Record office tomorrow night, Thurs
day night, Get. 16th, at 7:15 o’clock,
and assist in making arrangements
for the biggest day Mocksville has
ever had. Important business is to
be transacted, and a big crowd of

Dr. L C. Griffin Dead.
The friends of Dr. L. C. Griffin in
Mocksville were pained to learn the
sad news of his death, which occurred
at the home of his father at Marsh-
ville, N. C., last Wednesday. .Dr.
Griffin came to this city last May
from Winston, where he had been
w»th Thompson’s Drug Store, and
purchased the Mocksville Drug Co.
He moved to this city shortly after
ward and occupied the Horn resi
dence on North Main street. A
short time after coming to town, he
was stricken with illness, - and was
later carried to the Whitehead-Stokes
Saniterium at Salisbury, where he
underwent two operations. Previous
to his moving here he had undergone
two operations for appendicitis, and
his health was very bad. He re
mained in Salisbury until the latter
part of August, when he was carried
to Marshville. He gradually grew
worse until the end came last Wed
nesday morning. Heleaves a wife,
his father' and numerous relatives
and friends to. mourn his untimely
death; Although he remained in
Mocksville but a short while, yet he
made many friends while here, who
sympathize deeply with his loved
ones in this hour of sadness. Every
one who knew him was his friend.
A good man has gone. Peace to his
During Dr. Griffin’s illness the
drug store here has been managed
successfully by John LeGrande, who
has devoted his entire tirne in look
ing after the business and increasing
the trade. We do not; know what
disposition will be made of the store,
but suppose that Mrs. Griffin will
dispose of it to some druggist. Mr.
McKesson, of the Statesville Drug
Co., accompanied by Mr. Murphy,
of Taylorsville, were in town last
week looking over the stock with a
view of buying.
Mrs. R. J. RoIIiiis Dead.
Mrs. R. J. Rollins, who lived with
her son, Rev. B. F. Rollins, in South
Mocksville, died Thursday evening
after a short illness, aged about 72
years. The funeral and burial ser
vices were conducted by Rev. W. E.
WilsonFridavand the bodylaid to
rest beside her hpsband at Bear
Creek church. Mr. Rollins was run
over by a buggy a short time ago,
and died from the injuires received.
Mrs. Rollins was a consistent mem
ber of the Baptist church, and leaves
several children and a host of rela
tives and friends to mourn her loss.
The Record extends sympathy to the
bereaved ones.
Site For Bridge.
A site has been chosen by a recent
sufrey by Mr. J. N. Ambler for the
steel bridge to be erected across the
Yadkin river, between Forsyth and
Davie counties. It will land on the
Forsyth county side on a rock bluff
on Fulton’s farm and on the Davie
county side on a hill on the Neal
Hall place, and will be about one-
fourtn of a mile in length. The
bridge will cost some $25,000 Mr.
D. W- Harmon1 ef the Forsyth Board
of Highway Commissioners, visited
the place chosen ,with Mr. Ambler,
and agreed that a more desirable
sifce cpuld not have been selected.
In Utte time actual work will begin
on the bridge.
ClsrksyiDe Interestedin TIie Good
Roads Movement.
P. P. Green, of Clarksville town
ship was in to see us last week, and
iS.ysry favorably impressed with the
good roads movement as set forth
by the Governor. Mr. Green wants
the citizens of Clarksville to aid him
in helping to build better roads in
his township, and earnestly requests
every able-bodied man in the town
ship to meet him on Nov.' 5th and
6th, with the necessary tools to
build roads. The good roads days
in Missouri and Kansas were a suc
cess in every particular, nearly 300
miles of good roads having been
built in Missouri in two days. Com
mittees should be appointed in
Clarksville for different sections of
roads that are to be worked on these
days. Mr. Green wants his town
ship to lead in this great movement
and desires that every Clarksville
citizen to lend their assistance. He
wants these two days set ,aside as
holidays, and wants the ladies of
the township to be present mid lend
their aid and encouragement to the
good roads work. This they can do
by preparing dinner and refresh
ments for the workers. We feel
sure that Clarksville means to do
something, and we would <be glad if
every township in the county would
follow her example, and begin now
to make arrangements to improve
their roads on Nov. 5th and 6th.

Farming and banking go hand in hand. Oneisneeessarvto the other. The banker realizes his dependence upon the farmer, and
the farmer knows he cannot get along without the banker. Its a
mutual proposition, after all. And that’s what brings success in a large measure to all of us—helping each other. .
It has always been the policy of this bank to co-operate and help the farmer. We have always tried to take care of his needs and
assist him in every way possible and we believe what we have w
done has been appreciated. A
Now, farmer friends, when you sell your farm products and have X
money to deposit, remember us, and when you need money we’ll ^ remember you. $

SH O E S— That s AU.”
Winston-Salem*The Mail Order House
Particularly Pointed.
. Aud our Democratic friends are
not saying much about the ‘‘high
cost of living” just now.
As we see it, there is only one
way for North Carolina to come
out of debt, and that is to go Ne
publican.
HorBes should sell cheaper, peo
ple are riding in automobiles, street
cars at'j» run by electricity and the
government in run by jackasses.—
There is not much demand for
horseflesh.
Nut you just wait until about
three years from now and see if
Mr. McAdoo will be able to send
out fifty million dollars to help
move the crop —The chances are
he will be selling bonds for the
government to live on.
If Secretary Bryan had stayed
in hiB office and attended to his
business, he would have received
that letter in time and the Nev.
Bobby Glenn would have received
that $7,000 job, for which he would
only have to work about 60 days,
and that would consist only in rid
ing around and having a good
time.—That job would have just
suited Bobby.
American citizens in Mexico
realizing that their own govern
ment will not protect their lives or
property, are now claiming to be
subjects of Great Britain. Well,
well, Woodrow, we never thongbt
that this government would act so
cowordly as to cause American
citizens in a foreign country Jto
deny their nationality and claim to
be British subjects.—My, my, it
gets worse.
We always thought the Corpora-
Iion Commission had full power to
regulate freight rates within the
State, and the Legislature can do
no rnofe, but it is claimed by some
that the Corporation Commission is
not with the people, but with the
railroads.—But then the Legisla
ture may be the same way.
Truth of the matter is, the Demo
cratic party Bold out to the rail
roads in 1897. They haven't got
the nerve to go right up againBt
them, and now they are trying to
whip the devil around the stump
by organizing “Just Freight Nate
Associations” to show to the rail
roads that the people and not the
Democratic leaders that are de
manding just freight rates for
North Carolina.—Looks cowardly
to us.
. Democrats can talk big but when
it comes to a show down they fall
down. The Democratic platform
at Baltimore specifically declared
that “every American citizen resid
ing or having property in any
foreign country must be given the
full protection of the United States
government, both for him and his
property.” The Democratic party
has been in control .of the govern
ment only six months, and there
are 60,000 Americans in Mexico at
, the command of President Wilson,
who have dropped everything and
run, leaving their property behind
them,—Why didn’t you protect
these American citizens, Woodrow,-
like you promised to do?—Clinton

that he had to study in order to

A Sad Disappointment.
The Charlotte Observer seems to
be of the opinion that the _ new
tariff law will not decrease the cost
of living. Itis so disappointing!
We were told all through the cam
paign how high the cost of living
had gone, under robber tariff.
Even those of us who believe in
protection had thought there would
be one redeeming feature in low
tariff, namely that our few dollars
would buy more rations. But here
they are, already making an early
bed to fall in." If the honest, in
dependent voters of the country
keep their eyes open they are go
ing to see once more the folly of a
low tariff for this country.—Lincoln
Times.

•‘I.announced that I, found it
necessary to supplement my official
income and that I would turn to

“I speak on educational subjects
only. It is for this one object that
I give the lectures, and not for a
lucrative end.”
These two quotations from Mr
Bryan do not seem to fit together,
but they are some weeks removed
in point of tirike. Mr. Bryan about
midway between gave what sound
ed like ah assurance that he was
going to stop lecturing for money.
But the manager of a chataqua cir
cuit recently announced that the
first $250 goes to Mr. Bryan and
above $500 they* divide. Abbut
all we can make of it is. that Mr
Bryan, determined to keep in touch
with the people, has decided to
abandon the plea of necessity and
to emphasize the educationl side of
his diversion.—Greensboro News
WeAreWaiting.
There was never a time, says Dr.
Wiley, when man was so well fed
as now. Aud therewas never a
time when he paid for it so well as
now. But there is already a prom
ise of cheaper living, contained
partly in the revision of the tariff
and partly in a revival of the inter
est in the agricultural industry.—
Naleigh News and Observer. _
To be sure we all waiting for that
Democratic promise of cheaper cost
of living and with it a continuation
of prosperity, good wages, etc.
Even as a doubting Thomas we
can but hope for a fulfillment for
the sake of the business interests
of the country and the people.
However just how it will be done
remains to be seen. The two do
not generally go together. But
then the Democrats promise to ac
complish exceptional things.—Um

performances a day, and the re
ceipts run up pretty large then, of
course. However, it seems that
he has made only some $6,000

is half filled with what appears to
be ardent spirits.”
“Well, now Deacon, it isn’t any
thing of the kind. The bottles
look so pretty on the sideboard
that I just filled them halfway with

I also had dreadful pains in my back,

The Litwliuark sees it, this would
leave the matter optional with the
people of th® different communities.
Aeurprising amount of opposition
to the amendment developed a-
ministers and prominent Jay

Ksee it that way. Fear is ex
pressed, too, that the amendment
would start an agitation that would
lie harmful. The Landmark may
lie mistaken, but it is inclined to
believe that the agitation on this
subject has just begun. One argu
ment against the amendment was
that the rights of Catholics and
Jem would be invaded in forcing
their children to listen to reading
of the Protestant Bible. Inasmuch
as the Bible is read in nearly if
not all the schools now, this ob
jection would net seem to be souud.

There is a wide spread belief

it had never occurred to any

Hogs and Boys.
In the good old times men raised
tLeir boys about the home and
farms and churned into them liber
al doses of common sense, and a
large per cent of them amounted to
something. But in this day and
time the fathers raise their boys to
live on the street corners ant side
walks. They lie around soda foun
tains and drinketh nothing but slop
and hookworm germs. They grow
up with nothing in their minds ex
cept smoking cigarettes and cuss
ing.

the age of sixteen he’ imagines he
owns the earth with a barbed wire
fence around it. He’s got to have
a new suit pf clothes with the
bricherloons turned up about six
inches above the ankles, then a low
pair of low cut tan shoes, a pair of
loud socks and purple background
with violets all round. When
thus rigged he looks like a banana
merchant walking on the street.
The inside of his head is like the
inside of a pumpkin. He falls in
love with some little spindled
sbanked girl with sixteen yards ol
piak ribbon In her hair and who
knows no more about the affairs
that beset married life than a male
kitten about the immaculate con
ception. They both get the idea
into’their butternut noggins that
it is a sin to work. He gets what
little pin money his mother has
and scatters that like a cyclone
scatters a rail fence. He sits np
late at night writing poetry and
yet he knows no more about the
multiplication table than a blind
rooster. His mind turns into the
vanities of life and not a thing does
he know or oare about the high
cost of tat back or corn bread. He
calls his father the old man and
thinks he is a back number.—

Who Gets The Credit?
Some of our democratic friends
are rejoicing over 133 cents cotton.
If fact we all are rejoicing about
the good price cotton is bringing,
but some of the would-be promin
ent local politicians are kindly re
minding the republicans that we
are living under the Wilson ad
ministration, and there fore the
prediction of lo w prices has failed
to materialize. Sofaras we are
concerned we sincerely hope we
have always been mistakes I* our
belief that low tariff causes low,
prices to farmer and wage earner.
But we still hold to that belief. It
must be remembered, as Brother
Tiddy said in his paper about the
price ol sugar, that we are still un
der the “iaiquitous Republican
Bobber tariff” and that *lie Under
wood bill will not gt into effect in
time to'greatly effect the priees of
products this fall. But. twelve
months from now we can judge
fairly as to the meiits ol the new
tariff law. In the mean time, we
will have time to study the new

is really lowered. There are those
who claim it is a protective tariff,
and that the democrats have, mere
ly made a bluff at . passing a low
tariff bill, to fool the people Lar
Eollette gave this fact as his reason
for supporting the bill, althonght
he is a republican. . We are always
willing to give even the devil hi&

give, it credit quicker than we.
WKat our people are after is good

We are wedfed to no idol, bat from

cannot but bring adversity instead
of prosperity, to our laboring peo

year will reveal the true effects of
the democratic tariff law.
WHEN YOUR UVER
GOES WRONG
Nearly Everybixly Needs a Uver Stimu
lant at One Time or Another.
Nearly everybody now and then is
annoyed with a sluggish, lazy liver
or by constipation or by biliousness.
It is forthis reason that Dodson’s
Liver Tone is such a good . medicine
to keep always in the house.
Either children or grown-ups can
take Dodson’s Liver Tone without
bad after-effects and without re
striction of habit or diet. It’ is a
vegetable liquid with a pleasant
taste, but a reliever of constipation
and liver troubles, and entirely takes
the place of calomel.
D. H. Hendricks & Son, Bixby. N.
C., guarantee every bottle of Dod
son’s Liver Tone they sell. It costs
50 cents per bottle and if you are
not satisfied that it is worth the
money, they will hand your half dol
lar back to you with a smile.
Don't be fooled by preparations
imitating the claims of Dodson’s
Liver Tone. Just remember D. H.
Hendricks & Son, Bixby, N. C., will
give you back your money if Dod
son’s Liver Tone fails you. That is
a guarantee that guarantees.
November 5th and 6th “Good Roads
Days.”
Raleigh, ST. G:, Sept. 27.—De
claring that the people of North
Carolina lose $12,000,000 annually
because of the poor condition of the
State's highways, Governor Graig
today issued, a .proclamation de-,
signaling November 5 and . 6 as.
“Good Boads Days” and calling
on all patriotic people throughout
the State to work upon the public
roads of the State on these days.
The Governor pointed out that
the modern highway is essential to
the material prosperity and social
advancement of every community,
and declared the country has a-
wakened to the importance of im
proved roads.
Characterizing the vast sum lost
annually to North Caroliua througn
lack of good roads as a “tribute
paid to mud” Governor Craig’s
proclamation calls upon every able
bodied man “to shoulder his
shovel, march out and strike a
blow for progress.” The ' “Good
ltoads,: Days” are appointed as
“days of festival, to celebrate the
beginning of a new era.wherein im
proved highways: shall be built in
every neighborhood.”
Summoning the people of every
station to answer the eall of patriot
ism, the proclamation calls oo the
“farmer, the merchant, the lawyer,
the doctor, the minister of the Gos
pel,1 the rich and the poor to enlist
as volunteers in this mighty army
for grand'accomplishments.”'
The work w ill be organized and
conducted in a systematic manner,'
bo that at the end of the second
day every community in the State
will show permanent road improve
ment. AU road overseers, good
roads associations, boards of trade
and all associations and organiza
tions for public welfare and civic
improvement are urged to aid the
movement. County commissioners
are called onto issue proclamations
urging the people to -participate in
the work.
Declaring that the farmers, more
than any other class, are depend
ent upon the country road. Gov
ernor Craig’s proclamation says:
“I call upon the president of the
Farmers’flKnion to issue his pro
clamation to the farmers of North
Carolina, that .this great body of
our citizenship, constituting as it
does the bone and sinew of the
State, may join with energy and
enthusiasm in: the movement.”
The women are summoned to
lend their prifeence.
J Mayors of towna and cities of the
State are urged to issue proclama
tions summoning all citizens to aid.
In eohclusion the Governor says:
“Let every North Carolinian show
by his work thaPhe is for the. im-
provefiaent of the State.”
Congressman Small Will Be Ready
For Road Work.
The News and Observer tells this
story:
Congressman John H. Small, of
the First District, who was in the
city last night, approves heartly of
the observance of Good' Boads
Days, the time for which has been
fixed for November 5'and 6. “On
those days I will be in my home
county of Beaufort,” he said, “aind
I will be found with- my workiDg
clothes on, ready to put in two good
days’ work with whatever imple
ment may be assigned me.”
“If the work of the two days
select edris done according to some
definite plan and with some sys
tem,” said Mr. Small, “I can see
where there will be some decisive
results in the way of road improve
ment throughout the state.”
The Real Town Booster.
The Henderson Gold Leaf comes
to the bat and makes a hit by say
ing; “The best way to help estab
lish a good reputation for your, town
is to conduct an honest, straight
forward business in your town, and
try to be a good citizen of the same.
Now yjiiu are shoutin’, brother.
That’s sense, that is. A number of
men doing that will make a good
community, ho matter if no big
mouth fellow arises on the back
seat and makes a noise about how
everybody must get busy and build
up the town. The man who minds
his own’ business, the fellow who
buckles down to it and leaves the
other nfamto do the same, is the on§
who counts when it comes to build
ing up the community. This biggest
job and the hardest one is minding
the business of number one.—Mon
roe Enquirer.
The Family Cough Medicine.
In every home there should be a bottle
of Dr. King’s New: Discovery, ready for
immediate use when any member of the
family contracts a cold or a cough'. Prompt
use will stop the spread of siekness. S.
A. Stid, of Mason, Mich., writes: “My
whole family depends upon Dr. King's
New Discovery as the best cough and cold
medicine in the world. Two 50c. bottles
cured me of pneumonia.” Thousands of
other families have been equally benefited
and depend'entirely upon Dr. King’s New
Discovery to cure their coughs, colds,
throat and lung troubles. Every dose

New York Republicans Declare For

The Republicans of New York,

party rules so that each State may

vention and so that States which
give the big Republican pluralities

power in selecting candidates . for
President. For this purpose the

With the cotton crop nearly 3,000,-

Some people are too stingy to help

they reap the reward they will do
nothing to help the town along. We
say away with the skin-flints.
This is the season of the year when
the frost is due on the pumpkin and
the fodder in the shock, but both
seem to be a little late this year
Anyway, this is the best part of the
year, and we should all be thankful
that the good Lord has spared us to
enjoy it.
We hope that every township m
Davie county will spend Nov. 5th
and 6 th in improving their roads.
Wehave talked to a number of
Clarksville citizens, and they are de
termined to use the two days to good
advantage in that township. Coun
ty Commissioner Hartman, of Farm
ington, tells us that the folks in his
township are also going to shoulder
their picks, shovels, etc., and im
prove their roads. WonderifMocks-
ville township is going to remain
silent and do nothing. We trust
that our citizens will get busy and
do something.
WE HOPE SO.
We’ll warrant that the people of
Davie county will rally to Governor
Craig when the time comes for every
body to turn out, as he has asked the
people to do, and work the public
roads. Wnen it comes to working
roads the people of Davie county
have put themselves down by the
most progressive people of this coun
try. Then. too. they are everlast
ingly indebted to the Governor for
his splendid recognition of them in
giving a large portion of the Federal
road fund to Davie.—Wins ton Jour

THE RECORD AT ONE DOLLAR.
Beginning January 1st, 1914; the
price of The Davie Record will
raised from 50c. to $1 per year. _
the paper is not worth one dollar per
year, it is net worth anything,
number of our friends have been
talking and advising us for some time
to raise our subscription price. We
dislike to take this step, but we find
■ that with the high east of everything
that it takes to make a newspaper,
such as ink, paper, labor, etc.,. _
cannot continue to run the paper for
less than $1 per year. The oost
everything has advanced, and it takes
twice the amount of money to buy
the same asioust of goods that could
be purchased a few years ago. \ _
have found it impossible to continue
the paper at 50c. per year, without
losing money, and have therefore
decided to make this change the first
of the coming year. AU of our sub
scribers who are behind, or who
want to pay a head, can do so at the
old rate, and all new subscriptions
will be received at 50 cents per year
until Jan. 1,1914. After that date,
all who are taking the paper will be
charged at the rate of $1 per year.
We shall strive to give you a better,
newsier paper next year than at any
previous time, and ask the support
and co-operation of all our friends
and all those who are interested in
the future growth and development
of Mocksville and Davie county. AU

an instrument. The keys are al

The present Uriff bill will soon
become a law, now let’s see how
long before the bigh cost ot living
will be reduced.
It’s getting about time for that
penitentiary surplus to bob up
again.—No we are mistaken. Next
year is the time.—There is no elec
tion this year.
If the North Carolinians can’t
run the United States government
any better than they have been
running this State government, it
will not be long before you will
hear a squall.
It looks now like there will not
be more than 60 per cent of a cot
ton crop made this year. The
price ought to go up like a sky
rocket. Under present crop con
ditions cotton ought to' easily sell
at 15 cents.—Something wrong,
Josiah.
And that Congressiondl district
up in Maine, which went so strong
for Woodrow Wilson last Novem
ber, went Eepublican last week.
Looks like the people up in Maine
are getting tired of the Democrats
in a short time. What’s the mat
ter, Mr. President? ,
The people are already taxed
almost to death and now tbe
Democrata are trying to get the
constitution amended so as to pile
up the taxes still higher, but you
needn’t expect any relief as long
as you continue to vote the Demo
cratic ticket.
Crime is on the increase, but we
see no efforts being made to have
■the extra session of the Legislature
to amend tbe criminal laws so
murderers can and will be convicted
in the first degree. There is but
one way to prevent murder and
everybody knows what that is.
The difference in the Democratic
aud Bepublican parties in Sampson
county is this: The Democratic
party has control of and governs
the town of Clinton and it is $10,
000 in debt. The BepublicanB
have control of and govern the
county ot Sampson and it.is out of
debt and has $10,000 in her
treasury—What do you think ot
that, Josiahl
What Constitutes a Lie.
John Ruskin.
The essence of lying is in decep
tiou; hot iu words. A lie may be
told by Bilence, by equivocation,
by the accent on a syllable, by a
glance of the eye attaching a
peculiar significance to a sentence;
and all these kinds of lies are worse
and baser by many degrees than a
lie plainly worded. So that no
form of biiu<1ed conscience is so far
Bunk as that which comforts itself
for having deceived because the
deception was by gesture or silence,
instead of utterauce.
Pennsylvania Solidly Republican.
Domination of this Bepublican
State Committee by the partisans
of Boosevelt and Flinn ceased Sept.
30th, when meu of the regular
Bepublican organization elected
Senator William E. Crow, of Un-
iontown, State chairman, and
placed former officers back in pow
er. The passing of Harry G.
Wasson as chairman was without
Motion, and the committeemen
voted him thanks for his services.
From top to bottom the committee
is now Bepubliean and the new
chairman sounded, the keynote
when he called upon the members
to forget the past harmonize the
party So as tft take advantage of
the Democratic blunder and make

Would Have Fewer And Better
Country Schools.
The old-fashioned one-room
school house of the country cross
roads, within whose walls many of
the country’s most illustrious men
received the rudiments of their
education, would be entirely a
thing of the past if the United
States Bureau of Education had its
way. ItspIaeewouldbetakenby
the consolidated, or centralized,
school, as recommended in a bulle
tin just issued by the bureau.
Wherever this change can be made
without too great expanse and
without breaking up or disintegrat
ing existing communities it should
be done, sayo the bureau. There
is CMistant improvement in the
facilities offered by the one-room
school, particularly in relating to
school work to the farm needs, it is
reported. Fewerand better schools,
with transportation furnished to
pupils living at a distance, is the
recommendation.

.Pomeroyjton, Ky.-In interesting ad-,
vices from this place, Mr. A. J. Hughes
writes as follows : “I was down: with
stomach trbiible for five (5) years, and * ’
would hare sick headache so bad, at
times, that I thought surely I would die.
I tried different treatments, but they
did not seem to do me any good.
I got so bad, I could not eat or sleep,
and all my friends, except one, thought I
would die. He advised me to try
Thedford’s Black-Draught, and quit
taking other medicines. I decided to
take his advice, although I did not have
any confidence in it.
; I have now been taking Black-Draught
for three months, and it has cured me-
haven’t had those awful sick headaches
since I began using it.
I am so thankful for what Black.
Draught has done for me.”
Thedford’s Black-Draught has been
found a very valuable medicine for de.
rangements of the stomach and liver. [(
is, composed of pure, vegetable herbs,
contains no dangerous ingredients, and
acts gently, yet surely. It can be freelj
used by young and old, and should be
kept in every family chest.

!Ie ami Woodrow said that was

ft irasoa the strength of these
promises that you elected Wood-

Ifllhim what to do.
Tbefnst thing I told him was to
knock the stilts from under the

Heknocked’em.
That is, he knocked at ’em.
Bnt the job ain’t as easy as it
looked. '
We are still wrestling with the
toff, and the end is not in sight.
You suckers are paying me $12,-
(IOO a year to do a certain job of
work.
That’s about forty dollars a day.
Orfonr doilars an hour. .
Maybe I ought to stay on t he
job for that much money.
But here’s how it is:
My JeffersouiaQ simplicity is so
strict, and the cost of living has
come doiru so much, that I simply
can't lire ou §12,000 a year during
tee prosperous Democratic tipaes.
And hence it is necessary for you
ackers to pay me 81,000 a ‘night
I* neglect the work which you have
fed me to do, and strut before

Iam getting double pay for my

Prefer tP°.Ul peopIe> Tbey would
ofinto !)nt iuPUblic office men
rSrIty and honor, but they
are indifferent about the matter,
and <1q not realize their obligation
as citizens.
Our people think they goven
themselves; they are mistaken.
They ^re governed by a small
coterie of men who are vigilant,
active, always on the job and who
are trained m the art of political
manipulation.
These men do not work for noth
ing an<1 board themselves. They
keep their axes sharp on the public
grindstone. They elect the men
who suit them and use the people
as the instruments to carry out
their designs. The man they
choose for public office may be a
good man or he may not be. The
people have precious little voice in
the matter. They flatter them
selves that they are sovereigns but
in reality they are the puppets of
the shrewd wire pullers who play
them on the political checker board.
This situation, however, is not
peculiar to Davidson county. It is
the case in mo^t of the counties
perhaps. There is «u«h a thing as
a court, house rinff, though all the
members may not iive at the court
house.
What are we going to do about
it? Well, nothing at all. The
mass of our voters do not seem to
care to assert their independence
as voters, and claim their right as
masters 6f the political situations.
It is because of this indifference
on the part of the people that so
many lame ducks get to lialeigh
and fill other offices of public trust.
They are not the choice of the peo
ple though they are put in office
by- the votes of the people.
The greatest need of our time Ij
a deeper appreciation of our obli
gations as citizens, and' a more
determined demand that only our
best and purest men shall be chosen
for offices of honor and trust.
The Ladies, The Individoal Cops
And The False Hair.
Monroe Enquirer.
Some ladies having the good of
the community at heart met for the
purpose of correctiug some evils.
They passed resolutions condemn
ing the one dipper at the school
house and said that the children
should have individual drinking
cups. They decided that the old
style communion cups must go and
the church officers should provide
individual communion service for
the church. They condemned the
sale of second-hand clothing in the
town and then they went home and
read this advertisement in a paper:
“Beautiful hair switches and braids
made from combings. Prices rea
sonable. Order now.” And they
who had been so particular about
drinking cups at th«* school house,
the communion service at the
church and the second hand cloth
ing at the store, all “ordered on”
for a lot of hair that was so diseased
that it would not grow on anybody’s
head but came out on the teeth ot
the comb, and they wore that same
hair to the next meeting. Selah.

You Will Realize How Much Better for

The liver is such a delicate organ
that most people have learned from
experience the danger of flogging it
into action with the dangerous drug
■calomel. D. H. Hendricks & Son,-
Bixby, N. G., sells and recommends
Dodson’s Liver Tone, a pleasant-tast-
ing, harmless vegetable liquid that
encourages the liver, relieves con
stipation and biliousness without re
striction of habit or diet.
There are no bad after-effects
from taking Dodson’s Liver Tone.
It does just what it is intended to do
and no more. Dodson’s Liver Tone
cannot harm either children or
grown-ups and is an excellent pre
ventive of chronic liver troubles.
D. H, Hendricks & Son, Bixby, N.
I., sells Dodson’s Liyer Tone for 50
cents per bottle and every bottle
sold is guaranteed to give satisfac
tion, and you get your money back
without a question if it fails you.
Some remedies are sold in imatation
of Dodson’s Liver Tone—look out
for them. Remember the guarantee.
About The Size of It.
The special session of the Legis
lature is grinding out more new
laws than they generally do at a
regular session and the majority ot
them are not worth a snap of the
finger. But the State has to bear
the burden.
One wonld think to take a glance
at the daily papers, that the statute
books of Norih Carolina were bar
ren of laws, judging from the num
ber of bills introduced in the
special session of the legislature:
The trouble with our state is that
she has too many laws already an,d_
if some of:rthem were repealed it
wonld be bettervinstead of adding
more to them.—Oreedmore News.

hurt the citizens of Davie to follow
suit. We notice that Yadkin, Ire

and build some good roads. Let the

Faimers And Bankers Dependent On I
Eacn Other.
Farming and banking go hand in hand. One is necessary to the
other. The banker realizes his dependence upon the farmer, and
the farmer knows he cannot get along without the banker. Its a
mutual proposition, after all. And that’s what brings success in a large measure to all of us—helping each other.
It has always been the policy of this bank to co-operate and help the farmer. We have always tried to take care of his needs and
assist him in every way possible and we believe what we have
done has been appreciated.Now; farmer friends, when you sell your farm products and have
money to deposit, remember us, and when you need money we’ll
remember you. \

■ To Woodrow Wilson.
Master Woodrow, we’ve been
planning for a general jubilee when
your blessed Free Trade tariff getB
to working full and free, Just to
know tho cost of living’s got to
tumble like a clown makes us Dem
inys want to holler in the country
and the town. There is beefsteak,
flour and bacon, sugar, honey, soap
and lard, all a selling at high
prices,—Won’t old Free Trade
knock ’em hard? Hit all these a
solar plexus—cut the figures square
in two and when your four years
hav ended we’ll cast ten million
votes for yon. And, O Master,
dearest Woodrow, there’s another
tavor yet—won’t you listen while
we tell it; it’s important, don’t
forget? See that all the things we
produce—cotton, ’taters, rye and
wheat, sbeep and cattle, hogs and
horses, keep a selling good aud
steep. It would work a woeful
hardship on us Demmys far and
nigh, if the prices of our products
tumbled with the things we buy.
Thus we want to thank yon,
Woodrow—thank you freely, thank
you long—for the blessed Free
Trade tariff—Give it to us good
and strong. And the pie that’s
still in waiting, slash it up and let
her go; makes no difference how
you cut it—gracious, we do ioye it
so. Anything that meaus a salary
—that’s the glory of us all. Doesn’t
matter where we get it, whether
large or whether small.
Wearegetting weary, Woodrow,
having Taftites read our mail, so
we beg you change the P. M.’s—
see you do it without fail. Start
Inspectors with commissions into
every P. 0. stand, swear us Dern-
mys into office, put a stamper in
our hand. We are itching for the
office, waiting for it night aud day,
so don’t let us suffer longer; hurry
up without delay.
Now in closing our petition, ask
ing blessings with a rhyme, let us
beg tea thousand pardons, for en
croaching on thy time; pardon us
for our impatience, forgive our
bungling, silly prayer, and when
the campaign calls to duty, you’ll
find us faithful Demmys there.
So start the tariff band to playing;
let old Free Trade cut the step;
aud while Protection’s in the gut
ter, low fanff laws will get a rep.
When the dadburned trusts are
busted, dead and rotten thru and
thru, won’t life be one grand siesta,
Glory. Woodrow,hallaleu. Amen.

Yadkin County To Do Road Work
November 5th and 6th.
The county commissioners of
Yadkin passed a resolution in
which the everseer of every road
in the county is asked to summon
his hands for two days’ work. The
board of education passed the fol
lowing resolution:
“Resolved, That the teachers of
the county be requested to suspend
their respective schools on Novem
ber 5 and 6, and teachers and
pupils render such assistance as
they can in making a success the
working of the public roads on
those two days as requested by the
governor.”
A puff in the paper is apt to
make one feel proud. But there
are other ways of being puffed np
with pride.

When Russell, the only Republi
can governor of North Carolina
since the close of the civil war,
cook charge, he found that the
Democrats had depleted the treas
ury. He improved the public in
stitutions, put beds in hospitals
and insane asylums, where the
Democrats had been making the
inmates sleep on pallets, and turned
over a full treasury to his Demo
cratic successor. Three Democratic
legislators, Dr. B. F. Dixon,J.W.
Atwater and Y.P. Ormsby counted
the money and said it was there.
They gave the Republican party .,a
recept for $185,000 in clean cash I
The Democrats soon made this
pile of the people’s money look like
a snow ball after an hour in hell,
and Governor Aycock and Treasur
er Lacey hiked off to New York
and borrowed $200,000 for the
state. Nowthestate is $760,000
behind and faces a debt of $1,250,-
000 and the Democrats say they
cannot see how it happened. The
people will see how it happened
and they will open their eyes at
the next election.—Ex.-

You Need a Tonic
There are times in every woman’s life when she
needs a tonic to help her over the hard places
When that time comes to you, you know what tonic
to take—Cardui, the woman’s tonic. Cardui is com
posed of purely vegetable ingredients, which act
gently, yet surely, on the weakened womanly organs
and helps build them back to strength and health!
It has benefited thousands and thousands of weak!
ailing women in its past half century of wonderful
success, and it will do the same for-you. .
You can’t make a mistake in taking ‘
CARDUI
The Woman’s Tonic
Miss Amelia Wilson, R. F. D. No. 4, Alma, Ark.,
says: “I think Cardui is the greatest medicine on earth,
for women. Before I began to take Cardui, I was
so weak* and nervous, and had such awful dizzy
spells and a poor appetite. Now I feel as well and
as strong as I ever did, and can eat most anything.”
Begin taking Cardui today. Sold by all dealers.
Has Helped Thousands.
