Mr. Grant’s Speech, A Smoke
Screen To Fool The People
In Mr. Grant’s speech, a copy
of which we have before us, taken
by a court stenographer, he says
“It is my duty and your duty to
critisize public officials, if you
don’t they will get too big for
their breeches.”
Prepare to disrobe Mr. Grant,
you have thrown down the guant-
let. .
You say the Citizens ticket pro
mised to reduce salaries.
They did reduce the Attorney’s
fee from 700.00 to 300.00 a saving
of 400.00 on your salary. The of
ficial records dare you to deny it.
All told we reduced the Court
House salaries 1160.00.
The road force, Mullican and
his gang were reduced 3237.62.
Deny that if .you can,
Mr. Grant, you, with your of
ficial family of co-workers,, who
have worked for you so faithfully
without pay, and boarded them
selves, mingling in bewildering
array under cover of the night,
have stumped the county in pathe
tic jestures of despair denying
these facts.
It would have been better taste
to have.kept quiet than to have
attracted attention to your own
short comings by censuring other
people.
You have further tried to raise
a smoke screen about Bonds to
blind the people, when the facts
taken from the county records
show the total indebtedness of
-the county when the Citizens took
charge was 399,086.80. The pre
sentindebtedness, bonds and cur
rent bills is 397,000.00 which
'aside from school bonds is 2,086,-
80 less than when you turned
over the affaire of the,county to
the Citizens. The school bonds
are local, self imposed taxes, ask
ed foi and voted on by the voters
of each particular school district.
The County Commissioners have
no choice in this matter and by
law are required to iasue them.
You, yourself, advocated the
issuing of these bonds and scoke
in favor of them at Fork Church,
Clai kaville and Mocksville.
Then why this howl about
Bonds? ,
It is an impudent kind of sor
cery to attempt to blind the voters
with such a smoke screen of de:
ception.
In your speech you say the men
running on the opposite tickot
are gentlemen and some of them
your friends, butareincompetent.
How about'the 711.27 charged
in error Ьу; your Board to Mr.
Winecoff, our former sheriff. Was
that incompetency or did your
crowd deliberately try to beat
him out of it?
fiyery one knows that the
former sheriff was not, and is not
now, a friend of the Citizens
ticket. We had nothing to gain
by it, but the Citizens found that
this was, justly due Mr; Winecoff
and they railed him in and gave
him a check for it.
Citizens of Davie County, this
is the type of men you have in
office, honest then, competent men
fair men. who knows no party,
but give a square deal to friend
or foe. This is the type of men
who ask for your support next
November.
In your speech you вау you do
not believe in a third party.
Did you not vote forMr. Roose
velt against Mr. Taft, the regular
nominee of the Republican party
v/ho gave yon an appointment as
Census Take;r at a big salary?
Wasn’t that ingratiiudel
You further say Vthe Citizens
ticket two .^ears ago pronsised a
Political heaven and a fence
around the moon. I want to know
what you got.”
We got a Shefiff who does hi.s
duty. Judge Long said Roy
Walker was the best sheriff Davie
County ever hod. The good Re
publicans of Davie County do not
approve of such tactics especial
ly by one who has for years been
its chief beneficiary.

To Investigate Oteen
(By H. E. C. Brj'ant, in Charlotte
O bserver.)
Washington, Oct. 17. — Ashe
ville people have become aroused
over reports about bad conditions
at Oteen. The Veterans’ Bureau
here is going to try to get at the
bottom of the complaints coming
from there. In order to do that
Dr. R. W. Blask haa been sent
down to investigate the situation
with regard to the food provided
for the patients, and the dismissal
of Dr. Archie McCallister.
Charles Holland and Harold
Kent, members of the American
Legion pos.t at Oteen, were here
today to confer with General
Hines, h e a d of the Veterans’
Bureau. They were presented
by Robert M. Smythe, chairman
of the National rehabilitation com
mittee, disabled veterans of the
World War, with headquarters
..here,____ . . ..,
Messrs. Holland and Kent came
to present papers signed by of
ficers of American Legion posts,
nurses and others. They saw
General Hines at 2:30, and as they
left the room they were asked by
me to give the results of the con
ference. They refused, saying
that General Hinea had asked
them to say nothing about their
visit. They left for home tonight.
It was stated at the Veterans’
Bureau today that General Hines
is desirous of ironing out the
troubles at Oteen. The charge
that the food is bad has been in
vestigated by inspector«, but
their reports areheld confidential.
The dispatching of Dr. Black may
bring results.
While Messrs, Holland and
Kent were with General Hines
today, a telegram signed by Mrs.
0. C. Hamilton, president of the
city Federation of Women’s Clubs
and Mra. Buckner, general secre
tary of the North Carolina Bara-
ca and Philathea Association, of
Asheville, was received, saying
in effect, tbat there is nothing
wrong at Oteen.
The receipt of this communica
tion was immediately used as an
argument that there are two
views on the Oteen controversy,
and Dr. Black will have to get at
the trus state of affairs.
Dr. Black is expected to report in
a few days.
If th>i Oteen troubles are not
settled |)y the time congrt-ss meets
a congreasional investigation will
be requested.
Colonel.Miller, who is in charge
at Oteen, seems to be the cause
of many of the protests. He is
an elderly man,and it has been
suggested that a younger one
would be better fitted for the
poaitionheholds. Veterans Bureau
ofiicialsdo not take that view.
They have heard protests against
Colonel Miller, but they hold tbat
he is a man of fine ability, good
health and industry, and should
do the work.
Dr. Black is to go over every
phase of the situation, aud then
General Hines will act.

Somebody may call us a 1914 model but we have wondered
if such tragedies as that which happened at Charlotte last week
are not in the same category as those which happens when a man
is gored to death in a bull fight, or when one was cut down in a
gladitorial contest during the palmy days of Rome. Thousands
of dollars have been spent on the Speedway at Charlotte, and
thousands of dollars will be spent by people craving “thrills.”
What is back of it all ? Does it not show a condition of more or
less human depravity, or at least a tendency along that line?
Why will people spend their money to go to see a lot of poor
follows take their lives in their own hands merely for thc sake of
money which they receive from those who are craving thrills
abnoi-mal thrills—such thrills as are not supposed to be desired
by a person in a normal- state of civilization. Bull fig'ht^s ai-e not
permitted in this countrj^ neither are gladitorial contests allowed
by law, but we would like to know the difference between the
underlying desire which prompts people to go to an automobile
race where men take their lives in their own hands, and that
which prompts one'to attend bull fights where men take their
lives in their own hands.
As above stated, some may call us a 1914 model, but, fi-ankly,
wo think the modern craze for thrills_ia oQe of a mo'st unfavorable
sign. We merely throw out these suggestions for the considera
tion of sane thinkers for what they may be worth.
It is now less than two weeks until the election. Of course
every voter ought to be interested in the national election and in
the election for state officers in general, but we think the biggest
thing for Davie county people to consider between this and the
coming election is our local government. What we do here will
largely depend upon our own efi’orts, regardless of who may be
elected president of the United States. It may make some dif
ference, of course, as to who may be elected president, but we
shall not feel it very keenly here one way or the other, but we
should be mightily concerned about the kind of men who have
charge of our local government, because that comes closesi to us.
Two years ago this country broke away from its old rut and elected
a set of representative men to have Charge of the government of
Davie County. That these men have served faithfully and well,
no fair-minded person can deny, and we believe deep down in their
hearts the great rank and file of citizenship of this county are
satisfied with the way they have conducted this county during
the past few years. Of course, the old stand-by republicans are
flinging fits and saying that the county is ruined if we don’t
change and put them back into office, but don’t^'you be mis-led
by any such crowd, because they are looking out for their own
interest, and their interest is largely that of getting their hands
on the pocket-book of Davie county. The thing for this county
to do is to get busy and elect the citizen’s ticket and keep on in
our foi-ward march of progress. We leave it up to every sensible
voter in this county to say whether 0» not Davie has not made
more genuine progress during the last two years than .she did in
the ten just proceeding.
Has anybody shown where the present county administration
has mis-appropriated or wasted one cent during the past two
years ? Of course not. And yet they ask you to cliange and vote
for the same old crowd that has held Davie county hide-bound
for the past 45 years. But the day has passed when the sensible
voters of this county are going to be mis-led and mis-guided by
that “gang.” Partisan politics has hampered this county more
than anything alse in years gone by and the voters have found it
out. That means that the fellow vvho gets the vote of the think
ing people pf this county has first got to show why he is entitled
to it. Get your name on the registration book, if it is not already
on there, and be ready tp cast your vote for the citizen’s ticket
on November 4th. If we can keep these progressive men in office
for another two years, such sti’ides of progress will be made dur
ing that time as to open the eyes of thc voters even more than
have been opened'during the past two years.
Say, you good people w^ho voted for the Citizen’s ticket two
years ago, do you remember how the old republican gang called
you “scabs” and “traitors” and “crooks,” simply because you had
the courage and the manhood to vote your sentiments? And to
think now that that same gang is trying to persuade you to come
over and vote with them and put them back in power. Are you
going to turn your back on your own fx-iends, or are you going
to stand loyally with your friends who stood with you in the last
election and who helped to put Davie County on the map and make
tïïis a county of which we are all proud ? Don’t be mis-led. Stand
by the representatives of thé people. Vote with the crowd that
has the întca-est of all the people of Davie County at heart. It’s
not our sworn duty as voters to cast our vote a certain way just
merely for the purpose of letting some “republican bo&s” get his
feet in the trough..
Batch Of “Best Reasons” Why
Coolidge Should Be DeìFeated
CBy H. tj. G. Bryant in Charlotte
Observer)
Washington, Oct. 17.—Here ia
what is said to be the best batch
of reasons why John W. Davis
should be elected, given by'Hen
ry Noble MacCracken, president
of Vassar college, fomerly a re
publican:
‘‘lahall work for Davis because
I prefer a man to myth, I know
something about Davis. I know
he is the leading lawyer of the
American bar. I know hia opin
ion on every great issue. His
reccord is an open book. He ia
an open book. He is a man of
utter integrity. I trust him.
“I know nothing about Cool-
idee. He is a myth. ' Secrccy
surrou^nds him. I can’t find out
the truth about his record as gov
ernor. I don’t even know
whether he wrote the magazine
articles he signed when he was
vice president. What else he did
as vice president I don’t know.
He sat at cabinet meetings with
Fall and Denby aud Daugherty
and could see no reason for a
change when it came to select his
his own cabinet. Ke is an edited
man. He was put together in a
publicity office, and he will be
plausible just as long as he can
find some one to tell him what to
think.
“I’ve seen him in the movies.
‘Smile,’ says the picture men and
he smiles. ‘Go to game. Giye
Henry Ford a bucket of sap. Toss
some hay,’ and he obeyed anx
iously and humbly. But where
is the real Coolidge I don’t know;
I know who tells him to smile,
for I can see a movie. But, I
don’t know tells him to sign on
a dotted line, for I’ m not there
and I havn’t a dictaphone on the
job.
. “1 was a republican by inheri
tance and faith. But, when t'le
republicans abandoned their
party policy in 1920: when they
caused their country to be defeat
ed .in its war policy for the sake
of a partisan victory of spite;
when they repudiated everything
I had learned from Lincoln and
Grant and Hay and Root to hold
dear, then I gave up my party.
“Today republicanism means
repudiation, cynical and self-
seeking. Democracy means pro
gress. It is hypocrisy against
insincerity, the record of ‘16’-20
against ‘20-’24. Why anyone
past the age of fairy tales wants
to vote for a myth like Coolidge,'
I don’t know. Vote for a man.”
Dr. Davis At Methodist
Church
On Oct. 26th the white people
of Mocksville will have an oppor
tunity of hearing a strong coloi-ed
leader speak on “The Teachers
as an Ambassador of Christ.”
Dr. Davis was born in Wil
mington, baptized in thc First
Presbyterian Church there by the
father of Woodrow Wilson, and
educated in North Carolina. He
was for four years a teachers in
Biddle University. Because of
his loyalty to his native state, his
ability and experience as a
teacher and hia consecrated com
mon sence, he was made a- mem
ber of the Negro Division of ou •
State Board of Education.
Be sure to hear him next fjun-
day.

ts nationally claiming, to have
done more in that direction than

They are pledged .to a water

the building of the Panama ; can
al, a deep.. waterway, from the-
Great Lakes to the Atlantic and
the Gulf of Mexico, à àtiipènduos
undertaking, that in addition to
other projects, followed the fixed ; '

like Ryan and Graham. . ; The
wisdom of thé national govern

“North Carolina is participat

other states, yet getting little or'
no benefit. National develop-

“Tnis policy ia not newi- not '

“A canal is to be built, in .

“The thing for North Carolina

is Klad to toll you that ‘‘they have
borrowed money" but he will
never tell you “ why they borrosv-
ed it.” Some folKs trc' mighty
littln thl.s day and time, op else
they boiievo everyone e.se to bo
so i}>nnvant that they will believe
everytl.in«: that “I ” saj', and that
thoy will '‘do what I Siiy.” Wake
up voters before it is ton late.
by D^vie County citizensa tax of
$12 is I'aid by the purchaser, fnr
thatistheamountofexce.ss freight
which mustbepaidonthemachine,
and, of course, the purchaser has
that hill to pay,
Again, it is a mystery tous
why the past county officers did
not reduce their salary. They
had the same chance to do it that
tlie pi’esent otficera have had.
We ask them to tell theipublic
why they did not reduce their
salary. We also ask them why
they never told the people the
dnancial standing of the county.
And after all thi.s, they have the
nerve te ask thé good people of
Davie county to give them their
support in the coming election.
Are they going to get it? We
say no.
They tell j’ou that the salary
of the county officers has not been
cut.. We tell you that it has been
cut.; Now we ask you to go see
for yourself and then critise those
that deserve critisicism.
It seems as if “He” is missing
that seven hundred dollars a year
attorney fee from the county
government, It might be more
if "his men” are elected this
year, The present county at
torney gets $300 per year.
If you expect to do any eiiec-
tive work in behalf of the citi
zen’s ticket you better get busy.
Only a little more than a week
remains before the election. It'
is your duty as a good citizen, if
you are convinced of the merit of
the citizens movement, to do all
you can to convince the other fel
low that you are right. We all
want to vote the way that will be
for the best, interest of all the
people of the county. Ppw men
or women either, for that matter,
want to vote for the wrong crowd,
if they know it.
The largpst crowd that ever
assembled at Shtifield school
house for a political sp(?at<ing
gathered theio on last Saturday
night. The house vould not hold
them all, quite a number having
to stand out side in the hallway,
and some not even getting that
far in. This is a Kood sign that
the ptople are taking advantage
of their first opponunity of heai’-
ng the financial standing of
Davie county discussed. It was
also the first time that they ever
inew what their county officers
were getting in salary. At several
times the speakers had to stop
and wait for the crowd to stop
applauding them before they
could finish their talk. We say
that the citizen ticket will be elect
ed again this fall.
If a person wants you to vote
for a certain set of candidates,
ask him why, and make him give
his reason for recommending that
you cliange your mind. If you
voted for the citizens ticket two
years ago, do you know of any
r eaaoti why you should vote
against it this year?
Why is it that some of our peo
ple “cussed the boss” so much
two years ago, and are now tickl
ed to death over the way he is
trying to “ bul 1-rag” the nomine es
, of the Citizens ticket. Why did
he keep so still two years ago,
and is raising so much cain now.
It is easy to see-“his pie” has
stopped coming in and the old
chap is missing it.
The republican lieutenants have
been instructed by the “king” to
go forth and argue against the
re-election of Tom Caudell “ be
cause we can’t afford to mix re
ligion with politics.” You see they
readily admit that “Tom” is a
religious man. See what the man
they follow for president says;
Well, if you had been at Chest
nut Stump last Friday night and
heard the nominees on the citi
zen ticket, and also the applause
that the audience gave them
from time to time, you would be
convinced to believe that Davie
is safe for another two years.
The school house was packed to
its capacity and then s&hie, and
all heard the whole truth, and
nothing but the truth about the
financial condition of Davie coun
ty and several expressed them
selves as being wholehearted sup
porters of, the citizens ticket
again this year.
Do the tax payers of Davie
county konw that some money
borrowed by the present county
commissioners has been paid
back.Do you know that for county
purposes the county is less is debt
today than it was when these com
minsioners went into office. Well,
it is so, and the recordsat the court
house will prove it. Now, do not
take our word for if, but go to tl e
coust house and see for yourself,
We have now a bunch of officers

There arc iwo (hings which tbe
voters of Diivifi County should do
on Novcmb‘-r 4th. The first of
thes3 is elect candidates running
on the citizens ticket every one
of them. We can’t afford to go

Jacobs-Woodruif Wedding
If our frinds who arc running
on the Democratic ticket in Davie
this fall are as good Republicans
as they haveeyerbeen it is strange
that they would permit their
names to appear on the same
ticket with John W. Davis and
Charles W. Bryan. Must be a
nigger in the woodpile somewhere.
—Davie Record.ftNow good people, just what Uo
you think of such a question?
Why did so many republicans in
Davie county leave the regular
republican nominee for president
in 1912 and vote for Mr. Roose
velt. Good, fair, and honest
government will cause any loya
citizen to change his vote some
times, and we give this as the
reason of the citizen, ticket in
Davie county tcday. And, we
have not; yet seen any such ticket
as the gentlemen refercd to in
hid article.

Farm Boys And Girls Win
Praise A t Fair.
Raleigh, Oct, 21,—The forty
farm club boys|and fifty club girla
taking part in the- judging con
tests and demonstrations at the
North Carolina State Fair last
week won much praise for the
noteworthy mannsrin which they
performed their duties.
The girls had charge of small
booths, one booth to each team,
in the Woman’s Building, anti
gave daily demonstrations in how
to make better clothing, how lo
prepare nutritious bread, how to
make jelly and preserves, how to
handle farm poultry or candle
and grade eggs and the other
activities in which they are en
gaged aa club members. Not
only did they go through (he
operations with the skill of the
trained worker but they were eIso
able to give the ressoiis that oc
casioned each operation. Nor
were they dismayed by the quos
tions which came to them from
every direction by the multitude
of visitors.
The boys had. charge 17 bcoths
in the AgriculturalBuilding, They
told with ease how' to prepare a
calf for the show ring, how to
feed and judge swine, how to
select seed corn, how to grow
more cotton to the acre or how to
improve soils by using sowbeans
and other leEumes. They had in
their booths actual exhibits of the
calves, the swine, the poultry and
the improved modern devices for
handling these successfully.
These boys and girls are those
who won out in county contests!
conducted by the farm and home
agents and then later completed
in district contests for tlie right
to come to the State Fair as the
representatives of that district.
Adequate prizes for the winning
teams were awarded by the fair
management and private organi
zations. These young people were
guests of the Slate College while
.in Raleigh nnd wero tendered a
complimentary banquet on Wed
nesday night of Fair week.
Now Is Seaaon To Apply
Lime.
Cross Line Marker Present

Raleigh, Oct, 20,—From over
all North Carolina come reports
that Tarheel farmers are interest
ed in improving their soils by
planting soil improving legumes
and along with this comes the
need for using more lime.
According to the agronomy
workers of the State College ex
tension division, the fall season
is the best time to apply this lime.
This is true even if the clover is
to be on the small grain next
spring. Nearly all crops grown
on the farm will benefit from an
application ofv lime to the soil;
but, legumes, especially, are bene-
fitted, and experiments show tliat
these crops will tako up for food
purposes from three to four times
as much lime aa will the cereals.
It has been found in Ohio that a
normal yield of alfalfa will con
tain 225 pounds of carjonate nf
lime to the acre.
Generally in the fall, the land
is well prepared for the small
grains and the lime, when appli
ed before the seed bed is fined,
is thoroughly incorporated into
the soil. A late, \vi;t spiing
means soft land, hard to work
and makes it difficult to apply
lime at that time. As lime must
be thoroughly worked into the
soil to give best returns on its
use, thcagrononiy woikers advise
its use during the fall season.
In some counties ofNorth Caro
lina a,s much as ten tons of legume
seed has been ordered cooperative
ly by farmers for planting this
fall. Over the whole state the
acreage is increasing with the
gi'owers realizing that to improve
tho soil ovor a wide area legumes
must be used. It is therefore
suggested by the agronomy work
ers that liming sour soils is about
the only hope for success with
such crops as clovers and alfalfa
and that liming is one of the best
ways to improve old pastures.
Many Tarheel farmers are now
putting their farms on a paying
basis by the use of lime and le
gumes.

OUTHERN IIAILWAY
SY ST E M
for the Qreatest Public Service
A manufacturer’s first question, when
planning the location of a factory, is
“What are the railway facilities?”. Busi
ness men who are investing capital in new
industries in North Carolina know that a
location on the lines of the Southern Rail
way is an assurance of prompt deliveries
of fuel and materials to the factory, and of
finished goods to inland markets and ocean
shipping ports.
North Carolina’s prosperity depends on
adequate transportation. Good railway
service is a magnet that draws industry to
a state, just as poor service throttles busi
ness and discourages new enterprises. The
character of Southern Railway service in
North Carolina is notably contributing to
the prosperity of the State.
The high standards of service on the
Soutliern could not be maintained with
out continued heavy expenditures for new
facilities to handle promptly and efficient
ly the traffic offered oiu- lines. In the past
twenty yeai-s our outlays for additions
and betterments in the State of North
Carolina have amounted to more than
$40,000,000. These capital expenditures
have been in addition to our day-to-day
operating expenses and taxes in North
Carolina, which aimually amount to mil
lions of dollars, , In 1923 they totalled
$26,000,000.
Most of the new capital expended on our
North Carolina lines in these two decades
has' been devoted to improvements which ‘ i
enable us to move traffic promptly and
thus attract new industries to the State
and so contribute to N oitt Carolina’s in- '
creasing prosperity.
Nevertheless we respond as generously as
practicable to the wishes of our fellow
citizens of North Carolina for improve
ments which, while desirable, do not in- -
crease the capacity of the railroad as a
transportation facility, in the last ten
years we have eliminated fifty-four grade
crossings and have provided forty-four
new or improved station buildings in the
State.
With the cooperation of the people of ;
North Carolina we hope ,to be able to '
continue our policy of making our major
outlays for additions and betterinents that ■
will increase our capacity to do our day’s
work.

Frederick C. Trappe On
Chautauqua Program.
Probably no place in the Chau
tauqua program is harder to fill
satisfactorily than that of enter
tainer. Especially is thistrue since
■ the Ghaut luqua has become so
well est'iblished, and audiences
grown more critical. Entertain
ments are now demanded that
are full of humor and brightnesa,
but that also have a moaning, and
thafare full of some literary value
Frederick C. Trappe, in his abil
ity aslanentertainer, stands among
the very first. Few men on the
platform have at hand a greater
. ,f.om which to choose. His work
combines the two elements of ed
ucation and entertainer and has
in it a universal appeal to people
of all class and ages. Mr. Trappe
wiW appear hereon the last after
noon of the Chautauqua program
with a special entertainment for
theJuniors. It will be a “big time”
all right for the boys and girls
when Mr. Trappe appears with
his family of queer little people.
Grown ups will enjoy it as much
if not more than the juniors
themselves. Mr. Trappe is known
as the premier ventrdociuist, im
personator and entertainer. He
comes to the Chautauqua plat
form with the highest recom
mendation of those who know
his work.

ted to the people at the coming

ett Constitutional Amendment,
which 1 condemned in articles
printed in the state press, and
denounced on the stump all over
Davie county in 1922, because it
discriminated against the poor,
and allowed the money lender to
hold notes and mortgages and
pay no tax on same, I am not
going to tell you to vote for, tho
republican county ticket, neither
am I going to tell you to vote for
the Davie county citizens ticket.
I hope you have intelligence
enough,and the future wellare of
your county sufficiently at heart,
me sufficiently to have the power
to drop me, I am a republican,
and I now serve notice on the
Stokes, Forsyth, Iredell, Rowan
and other county citizens tha
you cannot come to Davie county
grab all the offices and drive the
native citizenship out of the re
publican part.v. You may bs
your own estimation, far more
intelligent than the native Dav
county republicans, but you
haven’t got sunse «nd power
enough behind you, though you
may be controlling the "little
machine” to drive Ed Morris out
of the republican party.
Come out Saturday evening.
Yours for the right,
E. H. MORRIS.

Port Sentiment Strong In
Davie.
Major George Butierof Clinton
made a convincing speech Thurs.
tonight in the couithovse in favor
of the' pott terminal bill. Senti
ment in Davie county seems to be
largely for the bill and tonight
many in the audience told Major
Butler after his address that thçy
will support the bill at the elec
tion November 4.
Ex-Mayor 0. B, Eaton, of
Winston-Salem, a native of Davie
county, spoke brieily in favor of
the bill, "I think thia port dc-
velopmeiit bill is by far the great
est forward step that North Caro
lina can take now,” he said.
“ North Carolina has made won
derful progress during the past
years, but she has been neglect
ing one great source of wealth
and opportunity for industrial,
commercial and agricultural de
velopment—her extensive water
(ront and inland waters,”

THE BETTER WAY
The one certain way to know that
your car will always be ready to go
whenever and wherever you want to
go, is to have it thoroughly inspected
by us at intervals. Then if anything

That was about the cleanest piece’ of “mopping up” which'
Messrs, L, M;; Tutterow and A. ;;M, Éimbrpugh gave .Attorney:

and Kimbrough took the, Davie. -.réÉübUcan boss to ftas^^^^^^ on. his:
utterancés in a recent speech <and completely ánd satisfactorily
answered every charge;, Mr, Grant déclared that it was his du^yj
to criticise public ofjjcials. He is ri^ht, provided public; officials
have fallen short in their official duties, but he fa led absolutely
to, prove that the presehf Davie, .countv: officials have done other than they should have ;done, or :failed to do anything ,w;hich they, should have done. V Yes; :we here ifi America have a .right'to criti-;
else public officials,., ahd that is ^exactly what;,the-‘honest, fair-! minded and upright-citizens, dèihbçràfs and - republicate', have
done to-him;and hisÆfowd, 'But the^ good'Cause,‘ as .was
shown by thè article'pï'Messrs,.Tutterow arid Kimbrough, The
honest voters criticised‘;the old republican gang,-.who-have run, this, county to suit their own private interests fór forty years',
because they deserved'it: ■ But Mi%'Grant failed to. show wherein
the present officials have failed in-the least. They prbmised-to reduce taxes, and they did it, ■ : They promised • to reduce the coun
ty -indebtedness, and they did it,; They promised tb reduce the
■county salaries ahd expenses, and-they did it..- And thiat-is large
ly w'hat. is hurting Mr. Gránt,. fbi:,vthat' $700. is' being, rhissed by
him, and he would, rather the tax payers would pay him $700 in
fees than tb pay, a lawyer^ éíjüálly as able,and competent,v$300,‘
It makes little.diffèrçrice;to him whether the';pooir fellow ,who pays
the' taxer get5Îapy ; relief or ;not; : jùsÉ so he ¡'gets his, and lîeeps
his, feèt lit thè trbúghí w^ like; they have been for

Rules For Killing A Church. '
You believe with me, I nm sure,
tint Noi th Carolina women have
no clearer re«ponsibilty to the fu
ture—no ilici er duty to coming
generatitbns —1:0 greulei' ioyalty
to their coiiimuiiity and to f'eir
state, and to thi'ir homes—than
to use thci:’ m c.'ntrated f.it'orts
forthe pro^.ecsive upbuill ofour
state.
It is.universally conceded that
North Carolina ia today amonj*
the most progressive siatea in t! e
union of the ttaies and ic is un

I conlideiitiy believe that tht
mission of women in the political
world today is to imphasize the
conttrucli\e rathe r than thè de
structive—the positive rather
tlibn tv e.negative—it is' indeed,
to upbuild and uplift every pro
gressive measure that develop?,
in order that our children may
reap the benefits of our foresight
—lor.g after we are gone.-
Aftercareful consideration it
seems that the - Port Terminals
and Water Transportation meas
ure; which will be presented to the
■ voters of North G^arolinaon Nov
ember 4th, is one of, the most
progressive and far reaching
measures for the good of our state
as a whole,which;has hejn prasen

5. Don’t sinu. L-t the choir

6. Don’t attend piayi'r meet

8. Never commend anybody
for their faithful, sacrificial ser-
vicu and Christiike character. Let
them enjoy all this at their own
funeral.
9. If you see a stranger in
the audience, don’t offer to shake
hands or invite him lo come again,
people might think you bold.
10. Never try to bring any
one with you to church or Bible
sthbol.
II. Do not smile in church. You
might desecrae the house of God,,
or crack the enamel on you face.
Gloom is sure proof of godliness.
12. « if any part of the church
work begins to lag, don’t fail to
call atten.ion to it. It puts a fine
moraK in the church to know
that the whole thing is about to
blow up.
13. In council about church,
keep perfectly quiet until after
the meeting is over, and then go
out and tell what blunders were
made and how things ought to
be done.

neither brains nor religion,
-16. Withhold your financial
support f I oin the Lord's work and
use His moiiey for yourself,
18. If the pastor doesn’t visit
you as often as you think he
should, tell the'Other members
about it. He has nothing particu-

19.. Neglect your own prayer

20. Never try to win others to

that kind of work.
21. Don’t come to the Bible
school, it looks childish.
22; Insist on your views being
adopted ori all questions brought
before the church and don’t give

23. When sick don’t send your
pastor word. He ib supposed,, to

We notice that the most violent
opponent of the North /Carolina
ports and terminals bill, who
comes from down near Norfolk
and who was so confident awhile
ago that the bill would not pass
at the election in November that
he did not feel it necessary lo
leave the Lounds of his own dis
trict in his speaking tour, has at
last become fiightened or scared
.«0 lhat he is now spreading out
further in his vain attempt to mis
lead Carolinians into voting
agcin.st their own interests. But
he might aa well go on back to
to the suburjs of Norfolk, as he
will find out tbat North Caroli
nians generally are a hard head
ed, straight thinking people when
their interests are inv-jlved. The
Senator sees the writing on the
wall—the ports and.,terminals bill
will can’}’. — Greensboro Record.

Raleigh. Oct. 27. —The biggest
problem before the livestock
grower in North Carolina and
the one tning which is holding
back the development of a large
livestock industry in the Stats is
the lack of .attention to proper
feeding.
“This,” says R. S. Curtis of
the State College Experiment
Station,” is the one thirig our
prospective livestock farmers
must devote attention if they
would be successful. I sa,w an
example of this at the recent
State Fair where an exhibitor
brought in an animal having
some of the finest blood lines in
America: but, he had not fed it
property, had allowed the animal
to run down .in flash,; and ;there-
fore the feed> conaumed was not
shown , advantageously in .' the
body of .the bull. L believe ^ that
the feed given this entry :whtle
he;:wa3 at the fair was about the
best feeding r he had recieved
since coming,into the State. We
need to,devote more attention to
the better feeding of our . live
stock'. :
■‘Along with this, we need to
give them protection from incle
ment'weuther, <6uch protection
will cut down the co,at of feeding
and help to,keep the animals in
good conditipii. With fat animals,
the open shed might be all that is
needed, but for dairy cows, or
dinary beef animals and sheep,
we should have some place pro
vided into which they go in freez
ing, rainy and extremely cold
weather. Once an animal gets in
low flesh because of exposure and
poor feeding, it inay eat nearly
all the. tim'e and still show no ef
fects from the food.
' ‘ 'A good shed, leak-proof and
closed at 'the back and sides, used
as aj-etreat for the animals in ex
tremely bad weather, will pay
even in our equal elimate. ”

The great thing seems to be
guage their tastes in this respect.
Horses will pick up their ears and
prance when a brass band olays,
but dogs will howl as if in mor
tal agony at the same kind of
music.
There was once a farmer in
Ont^io who discovered that same
fondness of animals for certain
kinds of music. After consider
able resea* ch he found that hens
were particularly fond of bagpipe
music, so having learned that in
strument in his youth he ttidught
he would try its "effect in the
chicken coop. The results were
beyond his wildest expectations
and the egg baskfet was filled to
overflowing every day. It ia far
better and cheaper than keeping
the lights burning all night as
some of his neighbors had' done

hens work over time.

Bennett And His New
Lecture
William Rainey Bennett, who is
recognized as one of .the greatest
dramatic orators of today, is to
lecture here on the second night
of the coming Chautauqua pro
gram.
Mr. Bennett is'among the well-
known Americans listed in “ Who’
s Who. ” He is in it because he has
given the world something of val
ue in his lectures, because'he has
helped to advance mankind thru
his platform work.
Mr. Bennett on the lecture plat
form is one of the most electrify
ing personalities before the public
He plunges into the heart of his
subject with high-powered enthu
siasm and with a sweep of cimiu-
lative vitality, crisp logic and
spontaneous humor, inspires and
holds his audience.
Every instant Mr. Bennett is
the embodicent of splendid phy
sical and mental power supreme
ly concentrated. At times, with
sudden swiftness he relates a
clever anecdote or presents an
amusing twist to an argument
that bursts on the mental vision
of his hearers like a shower of
sparks from on anvil. Again, with
slowly gathering, force an^with
the sure skill of tp^^i^^est of
minds, he builds ui) aii unassail
able conclusion.
"Pathways to Power" is the
subject of a recently prepared
lecture by Mr. Bennett, which be
cause of its simplicity and direct
ness is making a wonderful appeal
In this lecture the speaker goes
straight to the mark and points
out the chief pathways tb power, .
The first pathway lead to one’s
larger self. The lecturer demon
strates that t .ere is a larger salf,
a hidden, powerful self, mysteri
ous’ little understood—the sub-
consciou-s mind, a mind which is
How’s This?
Eugene Ashecraft in his “Cat
ch-All-Column” of the Monroe
Enquirpx'gives tliis to hia readers:
Tom Jones has gone lo heavenly
heights;
He tried to drive without his
lights.
Jack Hayes this busy life forsakes:
He never would refine his brakes.
Here’s all that’s left of Amos
Bo.s.sing;
He tried to beat it to the crossing.
No more from Brown are earthly
smiles;
He took the curve at forty miles.
Ted Small has gone to his abode;
He kept the middle of the road.
Here lies our friend, poor Tony
Dix;
For booze and gasoline won’t
mix.
Jim Henry’s friends are'all bereft;
He made a short turn to the left,
Ben Gray is free irom earthly
pains;
A rainy day—he had no chains.
Poor Bill’s beneath the sod, alas -
He speeded up and tried to pass,
lipw Tom has joined the heaven-
' lyband;
He tried to drive it with one
hand, ■
like potential dynamite. The sec
ond pathway lead to God. “To
find one’s self,” dijclaresBennett
“is not enough. Millions are mak
ing that mistake. No one ever be
came great in his _own strength
alone.” The third pathway bads
to the people. The day of the in
dividual is p JSt is the thought bf
this part of the lecture. The con
cluding thouglit is that no man
ever becomes great unnil he is so
saturated in some grsat humani-
tirian cause that he is big enough
to fail.

appearance on the Chautauqua
program means plenty of real mu

means some clean, clever fun that

Associated with Mr. 'Maupin in

Davie Turned Out Best Officers She
Has Ever Had to Govern Her Affairs
The electionlis over and Davie County takes a backward step
by electing the old ring, thereby turniiig out.of office some of the
best men she has ever had to govern her affairs.
We want eyery good citizen in Davie County to watch the
march of events for the next two years. Let ua hope that we will
Bee many new bridges built, more and better roads constructed,
larger and better schools, and most of all, let us hope the old ring
will restore the tax rate to 95 cents. ÌCèep your beat eye on the
county’s debt and see what the wizards of finance accomplish.
Those who made the largest noise about Davie county's debt
and tax rate will have'a chance to go into action and do what they
condemned others for not doing. ■

Raleigh, Nov. 3 -The purpose
of pruning is to change the habits
of growth of a plant to encourage
the greatest production of fruit
by that plant,
Thegrowerprunes first to di
rect the growth of the young tree
that it will form a strong frame
work of scaffold limbs or to form
the future tree ;he prunes, second
ly, to allow the greatest amount
; 0f sunlight: third; to provide pro
per circulation of air; fourth, to
remove all deadand diseased brain-
ches and fifth, to do this by such
careful and judicious pruning as
to maintain the largest possible
leaf surface while getting the
first four o bjects named.
“These are the primary pur
poses of pruning a fruit t-ee,”
' says Glenn 0 Randall, extension
horticulturist foRthe State Col
lege of Agricult6 re,“ In forming
the future trjaer-'with apples, the
scaffold limbs rare distributed
around a cen'tralleaderlimb which
as the tree develops should become
the trunk. 'With peaches, an open
headed system of pruning is ad
visable, in which case the tree is
trained to notmore than-foiir scaf
fold limbs so selected tfiat no two
limbs are directly opposite. This
is done toprevent weak crotches, ”
Mr. Randall states that sunlight
is necessary to best color of fruit
and if there is nota.freecirculat-
,■ 'I'n of air, danger from plant dis
eases is greater. He says, “ Ex
periments with, apple t;'ees made
by the North Carolina Station
show conclusively thaft itis best to
thin O'lt tha small,branches rather
ythanto prune severely cutting
back the large branches. Because
, of soil conditions in the Sandhills
1 It is necessary to prune the peach
trees here rather severely. In all
other cases, however, it is not
wise to cut out too much wood.”
Fulton Township Sunday
School Institute
There was a Sunday School
institute at Fulton M. E. Church
Sunday, Nov. 2. This Institute
was well attended, there being
present two preachers, two Sun
day School superintendants,
twenty officers and teachers with
a total of two-hundred and fifty
present.
Everyone seetned to enjoy the
day. It was'.a day well spent. A
day full of good talks and sing-
ing.
We wish to thank Mr. J. R.
Foster, Fulton Township Presi
dent, for his good work in the
mestirig. Mrs. W. E, Kenner,
our Adminstrative Division Sup-
erintetdanl, talked for 36 min
utes telling us how to run a good
Sunday School. Her talk was a
very helpful and was enjoyed by
all
We were very fortunate to
have with us Professors Paul B.
Collins, of Arkansas, and M, H.
Hixson, of Tenn., who did some
splendid singing. They held the
crowd spell-bound as they al
ways do when they sing. Many
thanks to them.
We had a good institute of in
spiration and a 11 of us, went
home feeling .that it was good
for us to have; been at Fulton.

The Ingenuity Of .Man Is Destined To
Conquer The Progress of Nature—Does
Progress Pay? Concord To Build Hotel
* Will man’s ingenuity unhorse ;thè storm-god'^and queir the
fury of the tornado ? Will the farmer of the future reach up into
the heavens artd bring down the rain, or stay it at Avill, as the
present-day farmer throws the switch and puts the elements to
turning the wheels of his machinery ? Will the coming genera
tion bring the clouds, and then say to the sky, “Come forth,” and
it be so? SKairthis generation sweep the fogs from the face of
the earth as one brushes the ashes from his cigar?
During the , next six weeks army airplanes, equipped with a
device patented by Dr. L. iFrancis Warren, of Harvard University,
will carry out extensive experiments in the sky with the view to
learning the art of ф•iving away fogs, dispersing storms and
bringing rain. Electrified sand wiU be used, and these experi
ments will be conducted under government supervision. ' The
idea is to determine both the peace as well as war value of aviation.
Already wonders have resulted from these experiments.
Last Wednesday two aviators made an attack on a cloud near
the City pf Washington. Observers from the ground could easily
see the effects of i:heir destructive work on the cloud attacked.
The fact has been demonstrated that clouds can be broken or as
sembled; For instance, Dr. Wari^eh tells .»the following story of
;an experience with a severe thunder storm last July:; ;
Щ'- “These tests have resulted in some cases in^uiicàiihy mani
festations. For example, on July 8, at about 2 o’clock of the af
ternoon, a frightfully heavy thunderstorm with almost continuous
lightning lay to the south of Phillips Fiejd, over Ciesapeake Bay.
at 2 :30 we'attacked a small corner oif this storm with a quantity
of negatively diarged sand—rless than ten pounds—and coincident
with its application there Was ho .more lightning and ' no more
thunder. There followed a slow, gentle rain of about four hours’
_ d u r a t i o n r > - ^ - '> f v '; r j - . '^ i ^ ; ; - r ^ ; : V . , ■
“No claim is,' of course, made th^^he rain is caused by us.
because it would have rained anyhow^ut thè rain would .have
been attended by constant thunder and lightning and the sudden
bursts of downpour so familiar to us. This experiment was in
tended to test an opinion expressed by Mr. Edison, in an interview
in which he was reported to have stated that we should be able
to upset the electric charge of a tornado or a cyclone.”
Or. Warren belieyes that the work of assembling clouds and
bringing rain, dispersing clouds and fog, as a practical proposition,
is easily within the range of possibility. “Two of the larger
planes,” he says, ‘.‘would be quite sufficient to entirely quench a dense fog covering an area of 117 sqtlare miles.” He believes
that the method can be used as a practical method of producing
rain when and Avhere needed, and he closes ; his statement -With these remarks: ’ -/
“Should the government provide the money and facilities to
perfect, install" ап(Т operate the process for large scale-work, with
hundreds of planfci designed to be built to сагту 3,000 pounds of sand to heights vai-ying from 1,500 to Дб.ООО feet it will have at
its command the means of removing fog-over its harbors, leading
cities and elsewhere, and the power, further, to cause rainfall as,
when and where needed, both in the east: and in the dry and semi- ^ dry sections of the country-provided, of course, that there are
rain clouds present,-local or otherwise, and that the air between
the earth and the clouds is saturated to a degree beyond the point of evaporation, that is to say, at tinies when it sprinkles and does not rain.”
Now there may be some who will say such things -will never
be done. That man is tampering with the affairs of Deity when
he undertakes such projects. That is exactly what they said-when Franklin, with a kite'string, attempted to discover electricity.
Truely these things are the affairs of God, but we read that “It
is the glory of God to conceal a thing; but the honor of kings is
to search out a matter.” So it is not out of place for us to attempt these great thii/i,'s, but is our duty to “have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and, overall the earth.” ,
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me the
works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than thestei shall he do.” -
Coolidge Gets Overwhelming Majorities
In The East And The Middle West
Concord is raising money with which to erect a modern hotel. The wonder is that a progressive town like that has waited as
long as Concord has waited. That town has suffered in the past
because of a lack of modern hotel facilities, and the, people áre doing the wise thing when they build a new and more modern hotel.
If one had dared advance the ideav-a few ye,vs ago that this
State could spend millions,of dollars in ^building a great system of roads without one cent of cost to a single citizen in the State, directly or indirectly, he vfould have been branded as of all iier-
sons, most foolish. And yet, it seems that is exactly what has
.been done. Interest on our highway bonds and a sinking fund
on same are being provided for by a tax on gasoline. But this would indicate that'the man who purchases arid uses the gasoline would have to pay for the roads, indirectly through his gasoline
purchases. Yet, Frank Page,. Chairman* of the; State Highway Commission has figured it out that enough less gas is burned on our good roads than would be required were our roads undeveloped,
to more than take care of. thé little extra tax on gas. It is'most
wonderful. And yet it seéms to be a clear cut example of getting
something for nothing. In other words. North Carolina’s “good roads seem to have built themselves, , and they seem capable of maintaining themselves without outside assistance. /
New York, Nov. 4.—Coolidge
and Dawes swept New York state
with a plurelity that had reached
over 700,000. when all but 1,397
districta in the state had been
tabulated at midnight. Of the
districts missing 465 were in New
York ci^ and ¡932 up state. They
álao rolled up over-whelming ma
jorities. in the east and middle
west on .the basis of incomplete
returns from the general election.
In all of Néw England, New
York, Nevv Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, West Virginia, Maryland,
Idiana antáilinoia the lead of the
Republican nominees was mount
ing steadily at 11 p. m. eastern
standard time;'and both the New
York Times and the New York
World, supporters of John W.
Davis, hád conceded his defeat by
Mr.: Coolidge^. 3 ,
At Democratic lieadquartera,
ho wever, party leaders still clung
to;á hqpe that the west would
turn, the trick as it did for Wilson
in 1916. , Reports frorn most of
the sections'beyondthis Mississip
pi still were in the most fragmen
tary character, but they gave
;'fte best of it
lalfeer-states/t^
All the southern states, includ
ing Tennessee, Oklahoma, Keri-
tuchy and Missouri, were piling
up majorities for Davis. The
south apparently had returned by
the usual vote its Deinocratic
candidates for the aenate, except
in Oklahoma, whére J. C. Walton
waa running behind. The elec
tion of two Republican senators,
Borah, of Idaho and Capper of
Kansas, had been conceded.
With returns complete from
more than a hundred congres
sional districts, not a single seat
had changed from one party
column to another.
Returns from.^ 5,085 districts
out of 7,563 in New York state,
including 1920 out of.2970 in New'
York City, showed:
Coolidge;l,264,239; Davis 658,-
597; LaFolletle 328,389.
In all thirty-four states were
electing governors, but in most
cases there were local* complica
tions and cross currents of politi
cal opinion which led sophistical
politicians to withhold predictions
on the basis of the fragmentary
early returns.
