Subscription Rates: *?1 a Year; Six Months 50 Cents Strictly In Advance. Entered at the post office Mocksville, N. C., as second-class matter under Ihe act of Marc 3, 1879. Mocksville,N. C. Dec. 7, VJ22 Thè fight forward has alvvay been made by a few strong char actefs, with the masses hanginp oh, and often hanging back wit all the obstinacy ofa balky horse, Some hang back through ignor ance,some because of selfishness and some for envy, while other are a burden because of pun cussidness. Generally the leadei .13 the sort of fellow who woulc cheerfully follow if some one else would take his. place and Kct tis the pillow of fire. Extreme fatigue is something that must be avoided, habitually by all who would continue to en joy health, yet we doubt there is anything more wholesome foi man or beast than to be delight­ fully tired occasionally. No one ever gains anything by too much rest, but a tired man is generally a happy man. We don’t mean exhausted to the extent of be coming dishearted, but just wholesomely tired. It is then we learn the luxury of a bed, and the divine blessing conferred in peaceful sleep. One. great need of the day is for our people to go farther in the line of specialization. Our rura popiilation should be more closely wedded to the soil, and the same sliould be the case in all other, vocations. We think too much ofthe dollar generally, with the result, we are ready to drift frox farm to city and frum city to farm as the dollar leads. When our tillers of the soil once dis­ cover the blessmgs that are hid-, den in'the soil, and a rural life, we^^ will settle to such a content­ ment and substantial prosperity as has never before baen known. Perhaps there is no more piti­ able object on earth than the young man who has been allow­ ed to grow up without ever hav­ ing learned what real work means and we might add, he has never, learned this till he has learned to go on thé job knowing his bread and butter depends on it, and that to shirk means to fall short of what he needs for his comfort or desires for his satisfaction. It would be far more pleasant to tollow our own inclinations, but thi^ never makes strong men. Since we would have it so, we must either subdue the desert or the desert will subdueus, and we must master the wilds of all na- turé or be mastered by them. To give an inch is to drift, or back- step a year towards savagery. There has never been a truer saying than “A prophet is not without honor save in his own land”. We are all to much dis­ posed to under-rate the value of a home product and look fur away In some "Wonder-lahd” for the best. Perhaps this is became the things near us become common place,from everyday association, and we never really look closely at them or justly’sum up their worth. Some years ago, we had the pleasure of seeing a man Icne a fine pitfighthig game, and a fifty ’.dollar bet, pn an old barn­ yard dominecker, and all because the man was dazzled with the high spunding name of the fight­ er from a distant stock yard, and had never, really thoqght of the humble barn-yard fowl as a vali­ ant bird. If you áre in a way of thinking of North Carolina asin any way, infsrior to any land on earth, just look around and make a few comparisons and be con- vincedi In fact we boldly assert our belief that there is no other land on earth so filled with the best and'^with so little evil to counter-balance it as the old North State. Our products in every line take the lead where ever they are sent. CANA, RT. 1 NEWS У The farmers who are anxious to get their tobacco ready for the market are glad to see the damp rainy weather.

This does hot raëon lavvyer in our modern sense of that term. It wuiilil more nearly correspond to a theological professor.. Thé lawyer’s : object was to trap Jesiw—to Induce Him to take such a stand as would AvoaUen His In­ fluence as a - teacher. lie expected Jesus' to set forth some new cere­ monies rwhlch would cpnillct with or disparage the law. 2, Jesus’ Question (v, 20).

Scott, deput / commis­sioner, on the New Bern flagra tîod last week. "A strange incident of the •fire,’’ reads the statement, noted by Captain Scott, “ was the find­ ing of many high explosives in the negro housès and oven in thair churches.” "As to the origin of of the fire, he says it was unquestionably due to ignition of a shingle roof by a spark from a terra còtta flue in use for 20 yeors in the home of Henrietta Bryan. A small boy discovered the fire, ran and told ■Henrietta, and she, with a half dozen others, saw the fire burn­ ing around the flue in the attic. “By delay of the .fire depart ment reaching the schene,” the statement continues, ‘ ‘five houses were burning fiercely and the wind blowing a gale before help arrived. When the department arrived, it found it had left anoz . zie, and on coming with the noz- zlè found it had, forgotten a wrench and had to go for that. • ,“In addition to this, Captiiin Scott - reports that the Rowland Lumber Company fire, which w^aa outside the corporate limits, had the entire fire department there when the other fire began, and : at this fire, precious time was lost by the còmpany not having a standard size coupling, causing a great, delay here, -where the . loss was $300,000, with a total value of $550,000 and a blanket -insurance coverage of $430,000. . j ‘.ÎHe estimates the loss in \the city at 52,250j000, with insurance ! of only $35.000. The lumber fire he reported, was from friction in a hot box. , He suggests a law - requiring private^^fire-systems^to have standard.couplings. ‘'Ca,ptaih: Scott says' that he found a fórest óf chimneys where 1,5ÜÔ dwellihgs'stbod on an area of 40 blocks;'- that of the 6,000 rendered ^ homele.4S,' nearly "all were negroes: that none was seri ously injured or biirned, the only casualty being that of an old ne­ gro .woman unable to \vàik, and wais burned to death, ”; the state­ ment reads.’ . ; Mr. Scott return yesterday from New Bern.

Of this amoiint $253,807;5^ was’ paid but for pensions; ihe cost of maintenance of tho system being $L894,0,79 , That the nuniibar of pensions in this country is rapidly dimin­ ishing is shown in the statement that $4i9Ó8,259 less was paid in pensions during the past fiscal year than during the previous year; that 20,082 Civil war veter­ ans died; as against 24,775 for the. previous year, and'that 21,- 259 widow.s died a<î against 19,- 451 the year previous The numb.ir of pensioners on the rolls June 30 .1922, was 547,- 016 compared vvith 566,053 on June 30 the previous year. Of these, 193,881 were Civil vvar ve­ terane; 272,194 Civil vvar widows; 45,955 veterans of the Spanish war; and 9,198 widows of Span­ ish war viterans. There were 73 soldiers d'rawing pensions for service in the war with Mexico, and 49-widows oiE soldiers of the wdr of 1812.' Several important modifications of the practice pf the p?hsion bureaü were brought about dur­ ing'the yéar by departmental decisions. One décision held ihal a person who enlisted in the re­ gular army subsequent to April 23, 1898, and was discharged on or before' ¡\pril.ll, 1899, or who enlisted in the navy or a marine corps after May 4, 1898, and was discharged prior to April 11,1999 could be considered a ‘volunteer’.

MELLON WOULD RELIEVE THE RICH Secretary Mellon seems to be rather zealous as to the.qiies-, tion of reducing burdensome taxation. In his recent report; he cries out against high taxes, and asks that relief be given- One reading his report, however, is ■striick'with this fact, that it is not the common people'whose relief he seeks, as he says nothing, about the great Tank and file of the farmers of the country, makes no mention of the ordinary salaried man’s burdensome taxation, and seems totally oblivious to the cause pf the great throng of laboring people who sweat in theshops and factories or who work in the mines of our’country. . Whose interest is it that Mr. Mel­ lon is so zealous for? None other thanithe immensely rich and those who are forced to pay a surtax on Income. , ' Speaking of Mr. Mellon’s attitude, the Nevvs and Observer in' a recent issue under the head oif“ Mellon’s Food For the Rich’,’ speaks our sentiments regarding Mr. Mellon’s “zeal for the op^ prost,” in the following language: ' . ‘;The report of the Secretary of the Treasury contains a re­ ceipt guaranteed to make the very rich men and corporations honest in the giving in of taxation. It is very simple and consists simply in reducing or removing the tax imposed upon them. The last session of Congress removed more than $500,000,000 of tax­ ation imposed on those making excess profits or receiving very large hicomes, while by tariif taxation it added three billion dol­ lars to the tax on consumers. That prescription was then.thought to be sufficient to induce the ultra rich to bè -wrilling to pay tax on their swollen fortunes without unduly increasing their, tempér­ ature. The Democrats and some Wêsterners who call themselves Reptiblicans thought that the reduction made then was too much in view of the fact that Secretary Mellon said there was a de­ ficiency in the Treasury when the President vetoed.the. bonus for soldiers. , ' ; ^ ' “And now Mr. Mellon makes another prescription for the very rich’. It is to cut’in two the surtax on the very large incomes. It is how'50’per,cent. He woulda'educ^'itf;tô.25 peiv-centJ ^Why;? Simply this: As long as the surtax is 50 per cent, the rich will evade it in some way or other.’ Reduce it one-half and they will honestly give it in and honestly-pay it—or as Mr. Mellon puts it “reduce the pressure for avoidance.” Carried to its logical conclusion the'Mellon idea is that, when taxpayers are,troubled by the disease of “pressure for avoidance,”, the remedy is not to find a way to prevent “avoidance” but to. re­ duce, the pressure, by 50 per cent. Why not carry it further? W''hen there is an epidemic of lawlessness, do not impose heavy penalties, but cut them half-in two. , “ Mellon’s. food ior the Rich vvould not be ‘ so ' repveheniilîle if'it ' were not for the fact that Harding’s budget calls for' three bil­ lion dollars. If the tax bn the rich is reduced_50 per cent,’the fax on consumers must be large enough to raise the'three billion. It is robbing Peter to pay Paul.”" i -, It is rathér'remarkable that the entire Harding administra­ tion and the congress of the United States during the past two years have" seemed to center their sole interest upon the cause of the big corporations and-the immensely rich ; of the country. This is evidently the. road which Mr. Harding has expected to travel “back to normalcy. The zeal of the present congress for the’cause of thé big interests has be^h so marked since the 1920 election, that even many of the most ax’dent supporters of the .party to which Mr. Harding belongs, :have clearly seen, that the ;administfation, cares very little for thé average-—that greixt body which constitutes the citizenship of the. country.. This very at-', ..Titude. is what caused the, almost unprecédéritéd reverses at the last election. Conditions went to the point where even the, most enthusiastic repubHcan newspapers cried ,out against, thé attitude of the administration, and even before the election, boldly pre­ dicted the utter defeat of the party. Many believed after, the people had spoken in such certain terms at. the last election, that the Harding administration would see the “handwriting on the wall,” and change its attitude. Nevértheless, Harding is still raving for his ship-subsidy, and apparently no effort has been made to relieve the consumers of the country from the dangerous and destructive taxation, which' the Fordney Tariff Bill w in­ evitably force upon them. And now Mr. Melbn, -evidently reai- lizing that enough tax,will ,bè extorted from the farmers, labor­ ers, and other consumers with which io meet the government’s requirements, wants to cut ihe income tax on the big. interests in half; : ; This attitude on the part of. the. Harding administration .reminds us of the. Proverb which says, .‘‘He that being, often re­ proved;} hardenéth his; neQk, shall ; suddenly. be destroyed ■ and that without remedy.” OOFS DÍRING EFfllBT ^ COST Hht HIS LIFE Lloyd Phillips Killed At Es- meraldao Falls Trying To 7arve Initials on High Cliff Aaheville, Dec, 7. -*The bod.y of Lloyd Phillips, aged 17, a high school student at Wordruff, S.C., missing since last Saturday, was found by a- searching parly at the foot of Esmnralda Fajh/.near Chimney Rock, yesterday. , The youth, is believed to hive fallen from the top of the'falW, à distance of 250 feet, in an-effort to carve his initials on a darigfei- bus’edge of the - rock. : Houston CaJdweUi a companion with whom Phillips had been, camping, said the two; started for home in a wagon last Saturday,' when Phil­ lips left him, intending; to ■ carve hia initials at the top of the falls.

IMore of a Travelogue This letter will take the reader far afield on our travelogue. Do you kno\y reader I think there is an evil which haa come with the automobile. With all that it has done to shorten distance there has come with it the impossibility of taking long walks with yeur friends-those.long walks which give one the opportunity fo un- fold thoughts and develop, ideas. The Character—developing walks I am speaking of. AMONG ThB TYROLEANS Just now as I write my mind goes back to just two years ago when I was far down among the Tyroleans of lower. Germany and upper Austria. I had taken the train that night for the far south ' ' of Germany and awoke early that morning -and looking out I saw the long spars of frost on the trees and bushes and the iVnces along the track. The track had all iron cross ties as is customary in Germany. A herd of deer broke cover aad chased along by* the triain for a mile and then off. into the woods they ran. At a station I got off and; spent a day and night. One ot the pleasures bf this day’s slay was the long walk out in the forests. I saw strange and beautiful sights on that walk. A deer trough here . and a shelter there for these dwellers ot the forests where the forestry service was helping to keep up the breed. It was near­ ing Christmas and 1 was anxious to reach home by the holidays and that meant a four thousand mile journey. So I boarded the train again and left it again. AT MUNICH I was determined to stop here for it was in this Bavarian capi­ tal that the imp'erialistic idea was strongest in Germany and in fact had never died. I found much . interest here in watching the Ty: roleans with the long feather in their hats: a,Tid their buskined legs. The picture galleries and art museum was full of the works of great masters. One ofthe , galleries I reached yery. late in the day, past the hours of open­ ing. I was determined : not to lose the opportunity of see'n^ t'..c . gallery, however, and I went ,a- round to the side door where I found the keeper and his wife living. I handed him my card and he, after learning I was an Anierican, very kindly took me ail through explaining each pic­ ture as beat he could in his brok- ,en English. I thought th*s a fine illustration of a forgiving spirit on his part to a citizen of a country which had gone 4000 miles to fight his country and he, too, living in this h )t bed of im- periali.^m. This made it conclu­ sive t"> my mind t^^at it was inie the common people never weie very much at war with tl:e U. S. in Germany. IN THE CAPITAL OP TOYLAND Before I left Munich I went down to the Iser and went oyer the lines of Campbell who descri­ bes the . battle of Hohenlindsn, that terrible battle between the Austrians and Napoleon Bona­ parte where pool describes “the snow a<i being t' o winding sheet arid every lurí between their feet was a soldier’s sepulchre, ! . Arriving at Stuttgart áftor daik I found the city in darkness and I was told there was no coal with which to make electric lights and that all had to lie used in toy (making and other manufactures, jTho quota for the French had to be shipped every month. It was so dark that I lost my way going to my hotel and'I htfd tô find a hotel other than the one I had bo >ked for and so I had two ho­ tel bills to pay next morning but that, did not amount to half of what one hotel bill is in America as my bill fornight’s lodginaWas oniy 17 cents, so low was the Ger man mark. Stuttgart in Germany means bright eyes for the child­ ren and a merry twinkle for there is where Santa Clause stores all hid wonderful toys and they are most wonderful. I went through a great toy show room and ware­ house. Every imaginable con­ ception in dolls and toy dogs and horses and mechanical tovs of all sorts were there. Horses big ones, carved out solid from great forest trees, Dogs that could turn three summersaults arid whole menageries of aniriials that could walk and cry. Most of the boys and girls who are reading this would want to stay in toyland but I wanted to get home and 1 hurried out in the next morning. Up the Rhine and past the beau­ tiful scenes of the Rhineland, past the towns and farms and vineyard, our train hurried to meet the train for the port at Antwerp where a big transport was waiting to take us home for Christmas.

А TRUE CHRISTMAS STORY It Is Ivinston,Dee.7.— An all-woman coroner’s jury empanneled at Wilmington, Monday, siting in the case of a small boy killed by !i motor vehicle, was not the first in the country, as believed at that ciiy, it was stated today by Eu- gono Wood, coroner here. Wood soveral montiis ago summoned a jury of si:< women to consider the cuHo of a negro killed by a rriotor li'uck near this cityi ' So,ciai lead er.s and clubwpmeri;wers among tlie six, who condiictpd an pxluius tivc- ir quest and inquired into 1. JcGus In tho Home of Friends (Luko 10:y8-12). There Is no place where tnio clmvac tor Is so clearly reveille;! as tit homo. 1. Ills Reception (v. 88). Marlhii was tho head of the home, thorpfoi-f sho received him. It would bu a lino thing If all homes were open to re­ ceive Jesus. 2. Mnry Sitting nt Jesus' Feet (v. 39). She, of lino spiritual discern- ment, knew that sitting ut tho I.oril’s feet nnd hearing Ills Word was tlmt which would please him most. S. aiarthn Cunihered About Much Serving (v. -10). Both sisters loved the Lord. It would he Impossible to say which loved the more; but Jturtha was bent on providing a Hue meal for Him. She was trying to do so many things that she wus on the verge of distraction. This hud so complutely got on her nerves that she found fmilt with Jesus for permitting Jliiry to leave tho kitchen to listen to Ills teaching. Not only did sho cdtlclxo her Sluter and Josus, but she assumed tho authority to command Ulm to send ilàry back to the kitchen to help. ' 4. .losus' Answer (vv. 41, 42. (1) îclobukt'd Startlui (v. 41). He did Mils tenUcrly, for lie knew that sho loved Him sincerely. (2) Defends Slary (v. 42). He declared that bu» one thing was neeiltiil, and that Mary had chosen that good part which could not ho : taken awuy from her. II. Jesuo Among Foes (11:14-23; 20- 32; 37-51). ■ 1. Charged With Being In League With tho Devil (vv. 14-23). Being un­ willing to receive Him as the Son of God, und yet unuble to account for Ills mighty works, they declared He was casting out demons through Beel­ zebub, thu chief of demons. Jesus exposed the fallacy ot tlielr reasoning by showing that in tlmt case Satan would bo arrayed ugalnst himself, aud therefore would destroy his own king­ dom. 2. nefused to Believe His Sllrucles (vv. 20-32). They asked for a sign, to which Ho replied that they would havo u sign from heuven In Ills death and resurrection. He reminded them, however, that their request showed unbelief surpassing that of the heuth- en queen of the South, and the wicked people ot Nineveh. 3. Wickedness Denounced (vv. 37- 54). He pronounced six woes upon those who were opposing Him und seeking His destruction." (1) The Pharisees (vv. 37-41). These rie denounced for (a) piinetll lously observing some minute rites and at the same time breaking tho Ten Commandments. They carefully tithed “ the^siiiall'herba^of-the-gurdun-whiie practicing Injustice to their fellow- men, and withholding love from Ood. He pointed out to them the folly of attending to these external nets while the heart was lllled with wickedness. -'(b) Desiring publie recognition (v. 43). .This Is u common sin today, (c) For feigning humility (v. 44). Ho compares their hypocrisy to gnives which ure on a level with the ground and may be stepped upon unconscious ly by someone, and thus dellied. Wo can avoid those who make tlieir vaiv Ity known by boasting, hut solne aro mied with'tills same wickedness wlio do not thus raiikb It known. (2) The-Lawyers (yv. 40:54).. Jesus' strictures on the hypocritical Phari­ sees aroused thé lawyers,; one of whom Indignantly declared: -‘a"ou aro lusult- lug us also." In replying to this Christ pronounced three .woes'upon tlieni ; (a) for placing burdeusomo ro- qiilreuients upon the people, to which they themselves would-;not suinblt (v. 40). (b) For the murder of Cod’s prophets (vv. 47-Dl). Ho showed that their attitude towurd Him was tho sumo Jh a t was ' sliown to tho prophets by their fathers, (c) i;bt keeping back thé-'knçwledge'.of God by false Interpretation of the Scrip-, lures (vv, œ »«:; ■. ; There ' Is no wickedness perliaps- M great as . that of supposed tcachovs of God’s Word . who keep Its precious^ truths : froni tho people by perverting-Us meahlng, ■$2;oö _ /A Wonderful $2.00 Woi-th ÿor ,„.0-F"F-E-R—WorthFor$1.00 V YOU CAN’T AFFORD TOMISS $1.00 “Much Too Snd.” "Once a year," suld Dnddy, nice to hnvo a Chrlslmns talk.

Have No Money On Hand With Which To Purchase Food. WANTS 70 MILLION TO HELP GERMAN PEOPLE Washington. Dec. 14.--Infor­ mation reaching the American government through trade chan* nels, it was said today, tends to bear out the statement of Prem­ ier Bonar Law that an economic collapse is threatening Germany. In fact, it was declared, Germany appears to be approaching the point whore she will be unable to import food in sufficient' quanti­ ties to feed her people. -No esti­ mate was made, however, as to when her food supply would’be exhausted. ' So far as the allied debt situa­ tion was concerned, officials mam tained silence. The position of the'United States, however, has been repeatedly stated as one holding the debt question to be distinct from reparations. Germany normally produces only about three-fourths of th» food sha require^, it was said, and the information received here indicates she now is 2,000,000 tons behind on her normal annu­ al import of cereals alone. The redit situation was said to indi­ cate that there is little if any -money-available to buy extra food required from the outside, while to this is added the comp'ication of the low state of the mark. The basis of the whole situa­ tion was declared in high admin­ istration quarters to be predicat­ ed upon the rejjarations pròbletfi. Solution of that question, one of­ ficial asserted, would go a long way tov.'ard tiding Germany over what was regarded as an impend ing crisis. Lack of an agreement by the allied powers as to the a^ mount Germany will eventually have to pay and how she will pay it was declared to have slackened, the whole of commercial Germany with the result that unemploy­ ment has markedly increased tho last few months and those who have money are participating in the “flight of thè mark.” It is known here that capital­ ists and industrial institutions in Germany who can do so have tak en-as—much-of their funds-out-. side of ftheir homeland as they can. Against this and such funds as already were dsposited by those individuals and firms in othei* countries, they have bor­ rowed marks and are operating on this borrowed capital. The net result is, one government of­ ficial asserted, a state of “frozen credit” never before, experienced by any country and one that will not be eased until the reparation.^ question is finally- and definitely settled.

The resolution declared that the allied reparations commission had. estimated 2,000,000 tons of grain would be necessary to p.e- vent starvation in Germany and that with th^ lovy value of the mark twice the present circula­ tion of paper.money in the nation .would.be required to pay for it.. .

He asked Gov ernor Allen whether the klan ever had indorsed manifestations of lawlessness or had done anything to stop them. Governor Allen replied ' that every member of the organization believed he was doing noble work When lawlessness developed, be said thé klan would disavow'it and then give $50 to a “loose- niouthed preacher who would thank-God'fortheklan.” “Hei3aid7' -he was ashamed that the Boy scouts in St. Louis had not re­ jected a gift of $25,000 from the klan, so that “they could claim 100 per cent Americanism.” Governor Olcott, of Oregon, ask ed if Kansas had sent troops to suppress the klan during, the rail- . road strike. Mr. Allen i-eplied that he was ready to do so but that such action did not become necessary. Governor Olcott then asked what means Governor Allen thought would prove most effect­ ive in curbing the society, and the Kansas executive!: said he fav ored filing of names with sta^ officials and re.fusing to grant charters to the organization. } ■I.

The Enterprise takes this op portunity to thank its subscrib­ ers, advertisers and friends for their hearty cooperation and friendly patronage during the past year.’ We do not boast of having made any great amount of money, but we have enjoyed giving the people of thia county a good weekly newspaper, and we hope that our-friends have en joyed reading it. It is our desire to give you a better paper next year than we have in the p^^st. Speaking of Tuberculosis, it ha3 long since been learned that the greatest weapons with which to fight that dreadful disease,are fresh air, sunshine and plenty of nourishing food. Itwas the prac­ tice in former times to house the patient UD, feed him lightly and pour barrels of strong medicine into his syatem, with the result that Tuberculosis nearly always meant certain death. The prac­ tice now is^o give very little, if any, medicme_to the patient, but to let him have an abundance of fresh air, plenty of sunshine and nourishing food, especially milk. The result is that more than Hev- enty five per cent of tho cases diagnosed in their early stages, are cured. , We are hearing quite a bit about the fight against Tubercu­ losis these days, the discussion being more or less renewed through the campaign for sale of Christmas Red Cross seals. Tub­ erculosis is one of humanity’s most deadly scourges. For ages past it has taken its astounding tolI“ from-araong our brightest and best. However, science and popular education are starting *a mighty crusade against this ene­ my of mankind, and as science incresses its efforts, backed up by an intelligent citizenship, we may expect to see Tuberculosis go the way of Yellow Fever and other diseases scouraged human­ ity in days gone b , but which have been practically wiped out before the light of intellige ;ce. While the condition of the far­ mers of this and other counties ,,ha« made great improvement over a year ago, yet there are still many discouraging disad- vaniages. Crops were, as a rule, goi-d the past year and we have had a most favorable fall for gathering. One feature which is causing considerable discontent among the farming classes is the fai't that prices in farm produce vary too much between the point where they leave Ihe farmer’s hands and where they finally land into the hands oi the con­ sumers. This is a very serious matter, and it should be the busi­ ness of every one in this state to see that this disadvantage shall be removed in so far as it is possible to do so. There is ab­ solutely no excuse for farm pro­ duce to be sold to the consumer at such an advanced price over what is realized by the farmer himself. Business in Mcck8ville”duringl the past year has been good, роя-' aifaly the best in the history of the town, bat we are looking for ward to still better business dur­ ing the уечг 1923. We produced good crops during the past sum­ mer and realized moderate prices. This has been a great help to our ffrmers and in return has helped the business men and in fact every interest of the county. Another reason why we believe that busin<>s8 is going to be still better next year, is that the 1918 series of war savings stamps will mature January 1st. This will turn loose thousands of dollars in Davie County and' cannot help but be a great stimulus to busi­ ness. Just now we have not the information before us as to the exact amount of war savings stamps purchased by Davie Coun­ ty people, but we venture the as­ sertion that the money which will be turned into Davie County dur­ ing January, in redemption of these stamps, will amount to more than double the entire crop value of the county this sum ner.

C R A W F O R D ’S D R U G S T O R E J. J. Eaton, et al Vs Mocksville G. School The decision of the Supreme Court of North Carolina in case of E. H. Morris and J. J, Eaton vs Jacob Stewart et al Trustees of Mocksville Graded School Dis­ trict is printed so that the tax payers of the school district may know the decision. Appealed by plaintiffs from Bryson, J., at May term, 1921, of Davie,Civil action to restrain the de- tendents from levying and col­ lecting special school tax in Mock iville School District and to test the validity of a proposed bond issue, upon the alleged^ ground that the election, under which said tax and bonds were approv­ ed by a majority of the qualified voters resident within the dis­ trict, was illegally held and is therefore void. From an order denying the ap plication for injuctive relief, plaintiffs appealed. E. H, Morris for plaintiffs, A. T. Grant,; Jr„ for defendants. Stacy, J. The election in ques­ tion was held on the 6th day of September, =1921. A few days, thereafter. Dr. A. Z. Taylor, a resident and taxpayer of the Mocksville School District) insti­ tuted an action to enjoin the is­ suance of the bonds and thry of the special tax. mentioned in the present complamt, and for the purpose of having the election, here contested, declared illegal and void. The purposes of “ the Taylor suit were identical with those in the present case. Therd was a final judgement rendered in the Taylor case declaung the election to be legal and valid in all. respects, and directing the proper authorities to proceed in the premises in accordance wi*^h the results of said election. Not­ ice of appeal to the iSupreme Court was duly entered of recor,d^ but was not perfected and later it was abandoned. Defendants contend that the matters now sought to Jje litigat­ ed are res adjudicata, by virtue of the judgment rendered in the Taylor case. This was the hold- of the court below; and, upon this phase of the controversy, the following finding was incorporat­ ed in the judgment. “The court further finds as a fact that the plaintiff in the for­ mer action and the plaintiffs in this action reside within the ter­ ritory embraced in said school district. That one of the plaintiffs in the present action was attor­ ney of record for the plaintiff in the first action, and is a.torney of record in this proceeding; that the bondsmen in both actions is or privity, as between them, touching such matters as might be involved in the issuance of bonds, and levying of taxes with in said boundary and for the pur poses complained of by the crea­ tion thereof.” Exccpt where some special pri­ vate interest is shown, it seems to be established, by the clear weight of authority, that, in the absence of fraud or collusion, a final judgment on the merits rendered in a suit by a taxpayer (usually ‘brought on behalf of himsslf and others similarly situ­ ated), involving a matter of gen­ eral in’erest to the public, and instituted against a governmen- til body, or local board, which,in its official capacity, repre5ents the citizens and taxpaysrs in the territority'affected, is in binding on all the residents.of the dis­ trict, if adverse to the plaintiff, and all may take advantage of it if the judgement be otherwise. Ths rule is thus stated in Free­ man on Judgements, sec. 178: “A judgment against a county or its legal representatives, in a matter of general interest to all its citizens, is binding upon the latter though th y are not parties to the suit.---Every taxpayer is a real, though not a nominal, party to such judgment. If, for the purpose of providing for its payment, the ofilcers of the coun­ ty levy and endeavor to collect a tax, none of the citizens can, by instituting proceedings to prevent che levy or enforcement of the tax, dispute the val'dity of the judgment, nor relitigate any of the questions which were or could have been litigated in the original action ogainst the coun­ ty. If in an action against the officers of a county a tax is de­ termined to be valid, a taxpayer of the county cannot “afterwards maintain suit to. enjoin the col­ lection of such tax. An action special interest or private right. If thi-1 were not so, each cil izen, and perhaps each citizen of cach generation of citizens, would be at liberty to commence an action and to litigate the question for himself. Hence the result might be an endless chain of suits. Greenberg v. Chicago, 256 111., 218, 49 L. R. A. (N. S.), and note; El Reno v. Cleveland-Trini- dad Paving Co., 25iOkla., 648, 27 L,_R. A. (N. s.), 650. Norton, J., in State v. Rainey, 74 Mo., p, 235, states the rule as follows: “It was there held (speak ing of Clark V. Wolf, 29 Iowa, 197), that a judgment against a county or its legal representa- tives,''in a matter of general in­ terest to all the people thereof,as one respecting the levy and col­ lection of a tax, is binding not only ori the official representa­ tives of the county named in the procesding as defendants, bat upon all the citizens thereof though not made parties defend­ ant by name. This we think is so both on principle>nd authori­ ty, for in suits of the character mentioned the legally constituted representatives of the county stand in the place of each citizen of the county who is liable to be called on as a fcixpayer to contri­ bute his proper proportion to liq- aidate the demand, which a judg­ ment may establish.” Applying the above principles to the facts in hand, we agree with the following conclusion of the trial coiirt, as expressed in the final paragraph of the judg­ ment: “Upon the foregoing findings of fact, the court concludes, as a question of la w, that these mat ters and things, the subject of the present action, have been ad*' indicated in the former action, in' which final judgment has been entered, and that, on account of ths community or privity of in- We still have a nice lot of Bargains in Dry Goods, Notions and Shoes.

Wilmington, Dec. 16 —Tha big Norwegian sea-goin* freighter Terrier completed the discharge of several thousand tons of cargo at the Seaboard Air Line t jrmiri- als late yesterday afternoon and Instead of lying mcor¿d at the dock all night, awaiting the li^ht of today to proceed to sea as has b3en the custom at this port in such cases for years and years, immédiately cast off and navigat­ ed the river to sea in the dark­ ness of the night without en­ countering accidents of any char­acter. The passage of the big steamer from her docks to sea last night is ,a new departure at this port, and one likely loe.'tabJish a time and money saving precedent that will be followed in the future by agents handling vessels at the port of Wilmington. In the past there has been co isiderabJe res­ istance as to allowing big vessels to attempt (o navigate to the Cape Fear between Wilmington and the sea other than in theday time, because of the belief that pilots would l№ taking an unnec- «ssary risk. recent years keen port com­ petition has changed thia idea of danger. Firms, corporations and individuals now ñnd it difficult to secure cargoes for distribution unless they can offer a quick turn around. In other words can un­ load the cargo with the greatest speed and allow the vessel to prosesd elsewhere to receive an­ other cargo at the minimum of time thereby cutting down the overhead costs ot operation. By ^king her departure from this port at 7 o’clock last night and not waiting until the break of day this morning the steamer Terrier saved not less than 12 hours and thereby a considerable sum for her operators.

Gov­ ernor Olcott, of Oregon, was the first to step on the shaft elevator and as he did so remarke i: 'Many of us have been buried in the recent iandslidea, but never 'have so many governors been |Und«rgrourd at once.” Be!ow ground the party rede a 'mile along the main gillery in a ! coal train and then returned to the surface, being met by scores of school children whom several of the governors addressed.

Three teachers were ill with the disease, and about 150 children were out when it was decided to close the schools for a few days.

Many of towns are striving to make th( selves noted for their crepe myr­ tle, In most instances this agit­ ation is being worked up by the Womans Ciubs In Greenvil.e, Gastonia and Albemarle the Wo­ mans Clubs seem to be working to encourage the planting cf crepe myrtle. Why not Mocks­ ville people do the same thing and make this noted as a “crepe myrtle town," also. Shop early. It is now only about two weeks until Christmas.

A hard boiled seargent was yelling out at the people to clear the track and using, rough language even to the women who were harrying through to take their trains, That afternoon I had been up to General Headquarters and had gotten my transportation arrang­ ed.

That night at nine o’clock we boarded the train for Antwerp and I learned what that “groove" meant. Not a halt was made en route. We hurled chrough the night, up the Rhine and out thru Belgium, past Liege and finally about nine o'clock landed at Antwerp.

Tlie Lord’s warning l8 of great linportnncc today; for many are seeking gold and forget­ ting God. Note (1). his' Incrcaso in goods (v. 10).

(4) The-aw­ ful indictment (vv. 20, 21). God cnilR him a fool. II. The Certain Cure for Anxiety (vv. 82-34). Having shown the folly of the rich ■nan who gained gold but lost God, He now urged the disciples to tnist God and dismiss all anxious care. He as­ sured them that they need not be anx­ ious even for tho necessities, of life. Note: , > 1. 'I’he Argiiment (vv. 22,''28)'.
