The. gênerai adoption of thé

Says It Would Require $250,-
000,0(№ To Finish The Highway Job
Raleigh, Jan . 31.—Governor
McLean’s daily talk to the news
paper boys was a continued ap
peal to them to make it plain that
his road recommendations are
made as a friend of state high-
waye. He takes the long view
of Iti he feels.
The governor does not compre
hend the $35,000,000 figures. He
falls to flee where they belong.
Ha Icnows they are a lot of monpy
and he recalls that the state has
issued $66,000,000 in road bonds.
He sees that$ 35, ООО, ООО ad ded t о
$66,000,000 will round out $100,-
000,000; but that does not clear up
the mystery, for $100,000,000 will
not build the state highway sy
stem of concrete,
And that's what “completing
the system" means to many road
enthusiasts h e thinks? It will
take $250,000,000 to build such a
system and he would not be supris-
ed if it should require $300,000,-
000. Of one . thing he is quite
certain—th e state cannot con
struct any such system in its pre-
seht'plight of taxation.
The governor feels the pressure.
He knows that the legislators are
fresh irom home and that back
there the enthusiasts do not sec
the.equation between roads and
revenues. Ho desires to build
the roads, but ho is a financier
who has the samedilFiculty getting
rid of the silver of an Abraham
and thè gold of a David that old
Adam Smith had. The plight of
the ffovirnor isn’t pretty. His
prèdeccór had to drive one.season
and'Coaet'all the next. Mr. Mc
Lean n)ust fall back or. the road
machinery will run over him.
But it musn’t run away. That
is his, jobi ; ¿ Itis a terrific job. No
executive ever had a harder one.
He has the,sympathy of every
body, but the county stateaman-
ship is all pervasive, ’
Cabinet members, that is to
could ask for a breathing spell
without getting it,

Short Course for Women at
State College this Summer
Raleigh, Feb. - 2.-Club girls
have been given a short coiirse
of in'itruction by home demons
tration workers of the State Col
lege extension service each year,
but their mothers have been over
looked and now IVIra. Jane S.
McKlmmon plana that these moth
ers shall have the opportunity
which is rightly theirs.
So, Mrs. McKimmon and her
co-workers in the home demons
tration division have planned a
sliort course for rural women to
be held at the college during the
summer sohool. The course will
deal w.ith family meals, costume
planning, millinery and house
hold furnishings. Work ’ with
poultry and the home dairy will
also be featui'ed for women want
ing information on these subjects
Mrs. McKimmon is now prepar
ing for the corps of instructors
who will give this worlc.
"I want ten women from each
county to attend this course,"
says Mrs. McKimmon, "The
prospective student may arrivé
at tho College on Monday morn
ing, register and be roady for
work Mimday afternoon. She
may return home Saturday after
noon and most any woman can
afford to bo away from home for
at least this time, No woman
will be allowed to take over two
subjects as we want time for
conferences and recreation.
“This cost will be moderate.
Meals, lodging and laboratory
fees will amount to one dollar
and fifty cents. An extra dollar
will be needed for material if the
student takes clothing work and
this means the.whole coui'ae will
cost less than ten dollars.
“We have received so many re-
IS THERE OK IS THEEE NOT A STATE DE
FICIT? VALUE Of’ MILK AS A STRENGTH
AND BODY BUILDER. OTHER RAMBLING
SUGGESTIONSfor ENTERPRISE READEKS
And tliey keep on fussing over whether or'not there is ,a
deficit or not a deficit in the state treasury. Now, there is no use
talking, either North Carolina has more assets than liabilities, or
else she has more liabilities than assets. One faction claims there
is a deficit of around ten million dollars. Another claims that/
there Ì3 in reality no deficit at all. Among those who claim the
big state deficit is Corporation Commissioner Maxwell, Among
those who contend that the actual deficit is only around $1,500,-
000 is Secretary of State Everett. He says,,furthermore, that
if all taxes due the state were collected and credited, there would
be no deficit at all. That ought to settle the matter, but still the
fleficit claim goes on. It ought to. be possible to, Settlè this ques
tion once and for all. If there is a deficit of $10,000,000, as some
claim, the people ought to know it. If there is no deficit, the tax
payers are entitled to know the truth. The General Assembly now
in session, should not adjourn until the tjuestion is finally and for
ever settled—so completely settled that every self respecting man
in the state would not dare dispute the question under peril of
being branded as an ignoramus. The people are tired of hearing
he question mooted longer. They want the real.truth, and they
are entitled to it.' Let the truth be known to all. :
The value of milk as a beautifyer,'a body builder and strength
giver, cannot be over stressed. Since man's early histoiry, milk
has been used as .the mainstay in theAvay of diet.“ But as we gain
knowledge, we learn more and more about it’s true value, especial
ly as it relates to the health, growth and beauty of our children.
Now teachers; editors and welfare workers every where are prais,-
ng the. good old commodity as indispensible. They are not only
talking of it’s body building qualities, but they are telling.the peo
ple how to care for their milk so as to avoid it's disease breeding
tendency when improperly handled, , , '
A recent'writer, discussing the value of milk, as compared
with-other articles of diet, says that the nourishment and chemical
composition in one gallon of milk is as follows :
Milk auKar, (1.8 ouncus, which makes gallactoso, or food for tho bvaln,
liuttcrfut, about 5.8 ounces, for energy.
'Chlorides, 50 grains, which mako acid for the stomach and salt for the
body.
Bay, folks who sit next to him,
believe he will win the legislature: >
to a program which contemplates ^ i^om runU women for a

annual expenditure on roads for’P»"« to begin the work this sum■¡mer and any farm woman who
wishes to take pari: in the course
should write mo in care of State
the next biennium. The hope of
compromise lies in the ability of
legislative leaders to ¿ee that they
have won subetahtial victory in
driving the state highway com
mission and Mr.' McLean from a
10 million to à 20 million program.
The governor undoubtedly had
thought vyell of a lower figure.
To get abqut $15,000,000 into n
road program two years in suc-
cesBion means but a littl<r less than
thé state would have to spend on
its regularprogram, McLean back
ers say.
The city is full of party leaders
whq are not legislative officials.
They generally agree that Gover
nor McLean will convert the leg-
islatiire. This does not alter the
• fàçt that this assembly is over-'
.whelmingly. committed to roads,
'But it is’équàllÿ dedic up

Gaston Means and Tom

New York, Jan. 80,—Gaston B.
Means, former department of
justice agent was found guilty by
a federal court jury today, upon
charges of conspiring to bribe
government officials and was sen
tenced to pay a fine of .“iiJ.0,000 and
to serv<3 a two-year penitentialy
term. .
i Thomas B. Pelder, Mean's at

The sentences.wets impoiied by
Federal Judge' Lindiy af tier the
jury had returned a sealed verdict
which had found the defendants
guilty butrecommended clemency,
The court denied motions to set
aside the verdict 'on the grounds
that it was contrary to the weigh
ot evidence.
Felder said he would immediate
ly fil« an appeal. He expresaea

Another resolution has been introduced in the General As
sembly calling for a constitutional amendment .to provide for more
niy to menihers of our lawmakmg body at Raleigh. ' The question
las come up at a number of elections, but every tirne, so far, the
people have voted it down. , We believe this has been done largely
through thoughtlessness. For why should the people desire, or
expect their representatives and senators in the General Assembly
to serve them for $4 a day and pay their expenses? Surely the
amendment will pass if again put to a vote. ^
This is naturally á wheat growing Country. It is true we
have never done our best in wheat culturé, but thaf'is not because
we ought not to have done so. The farmers of this county ought
to “spread themselves" on wheat growing next yaar. The price
is now soaring to i.’ie sky, so to speak, and if our farmers had
that commodity in abundance they would be ‘in clover." Let us
learn what we can grow on our farms with most profit and then
stress that'one.crop more,' And wiheat should be one of our most
important crops.
We boast of oui; schools, roads and other improvements, and
we have á right to do so. We glory in the fact that we stand
fourth among the sister states in the amount of federal taxes paid,
and that is something of which we may well be proud. But our
illiteracy is still staggering,'and, if we are to judge by the news
paper circulation'in the state, we áre down at the very bottom of
the list, A larger per cent of our people ai'e without any kind of
newspaper in tlieir homes than almost any other section ol the
country, and that will always tell the tale. Educated people nearly
always take their home paper, Every close observer knows that.
Then when we see so niany in North Carolina who do not read any
newspaper at all, we are forced to believe that we are yet behind
other states in the way of intelligence. But our folks are picking
up in their newspaper reading, and within another decade a man
who do63 not take and read his home newspaper will be regarded
as nobody at all, and there will be few such found' anywhere in
.this state. '

Automatic Divorce Proposed
For Childlese Couples
A bill to provide automatic di'
vorce of couples without issue af
ter being married for years, un
less they produce medical evidence
of impotency, will be introduced
n the General Assembly by,Rep-
resenatlve N. I;. Brougjiton, of
Wake, according to a statement
issued by him.
The purpose of this, bill will
be to do away with ciats, poiodle
dogs and monkeys,” said l^pra^
scntative Brcughtcn, who added,
"I want us to get as far . away
from monkeylsm and evolution aa
poasible. In this connection 1
wish to state that I shall support
heartily the measure,to prohibit
the teaching of evolution in our
public school or state-owned
schools. I deny the right of any
teachers to draw a salary from
the State of North Carolinaprany
of its subdivlaiona for teaching
evolution to our young people. It
is time to call a halt and I, hope
that if there are instances when«
evolution ia being taught it will
be broujeht to the attention of the
General Assembly.”
The proposed divorce measure
to be introduced by Representa
tive Broughton is, he said, sub
stantially the same as that pro
posed in Nebraska.

Raleigh, Feb. 2.—During the
blizzard of March 1923 over 800,
000 pigs perished in the state of
Iowa, The swine growers of that
state took a chance on raising
early farrowed pigs and lost.
Their winters are too severe,
“But the Iowa farmer knew
that there was a surplus of hogs
in sight,” says W, W. Shay, swine
extension specialist at State Col
lege, “and he also knew that this
surplus would not show up in suf
ficient numbers to affect the price
disasttrously until after Septem
ber first. He therefore bred for
early farrow with a view to rush
ing his spring pigs to an early
fall market before the price broke
seriously-then the blizzard!
'As for what happened that
fall the records tell, wo have it
chartered here in the office. A
chart forecasting it was sent out
to all county agents in NorthCaro-
lina and to our mailing lists.
In this statement, Mr. Shay
gave the Baltimore prices which
average from 75 cents to $1.00
high than Chicago prices. These
are as follows:
Baltimore hog prices Sept. 3 to
Jan. 1, 1928.
September 3, ICO to 200 pounc
hogs 110.70
October 1, 1()0 to 2')0 pound
hogs $9. 50
November 1, 160 to 200 pound
hogs $8, 05
Decembei- 1 to 31, average
$7.95
This table shows that there
was u drop in price of $2,75 per
100 pounds or $5.50 less in Dee
ember for a 200 pound hard hog
than a similar hog had been
worth during the first part of
September, If the hog had been
made “oily” during the interval
he was worth $4,75 less per 100
pounds or $9,50 less in the case of
200 pound hog.
“It is significant to note,” says
Mr. Shay, “that the Baltimore
quotation on oily hogs December
.6, 1924 a year later is $6,00.
How long is it going to require
tor us to take the hint? Prime
hogs, top $10.75; oily hogs $6.00.
Isit yet clear? The market doesn’t
want oily hogs and you can’t pro
duce them foi $6.00.
“The man who consistently,
year after year, sells high grade
200 pound hogs about April 1, and
leptemberl, is going to be ahead
of the game providing he has ex-
[ercised good practice in feeding.
To do this, and at the same time
utilize the soft pork producing
feeds such as waste peanuts and
soybeans, shoats should harvest
such feeds and have a hundred
¡pounds added through the use of
corn and fish meal >after the
softening feeds have been clean
ed up.-

Valentine Social At
White’s School House
ber.’
Come to White’s school house
for a “Valentine Social” Satur
day night, February 14th. Bring
your purse along with your hearts
for the proceeds from the pro
gram will used to help buy new
seats for the school.
There wei-e a number of folks
from White's, attended the Co-op
District Meeting, hdld at Lexing
ton, the Slat. One feature of the
meeting which wus interesting to
both men and women, was the
talk made by Miss Elizabeth Kelly
of Raleigh, who is in the employé,
of the Tobacco Association, here
in this state. Ker subject for
discussion w as ‘Tho Business
Organizationof AgriculturalGom-
munities.” Why? To bring larger
incomes from the farmer.
The need of an income from
farming as a business is realized
by the farmers themselves, as
well as our Board of, Direc(.ors.
By having an income from farm
products, the farm communities
are enabled to translate into life
the necessary things by which
they may raise their standards o
living.
Miss Kelly emphasized thepoin
that these business organizations,
which are co-op locals, familiar to
most of U9, should make known
their needs to their board of
directors, in order th a t these
might be put into the policies of
the Tobocco Association. She also
made an earnest plea for every
community to hold its regular
community meeting, suying that
in Columbus county tho farmer
with his wife were counted as be
ing on the black list, unless thsir
names were on tho honor rol
which is kept at the school build
ing, this being considered the
capitol of every community. She
urged that farmers lonrn to use
the sense which they have, be
their own friend, stand four
square for their own business
carry it on in an organized bus,
ness manner, much like all othèr
great business concerns which we
have with us today.
Miss Kelly also made a report
from the “National Co-operative
Council,” recently held in Wash
ington, where the delegates of
more than three hundicd co opei
;ive association» muet.
All farmers who are interested
in improving their conditions, are
invited to attend the celebration
on February 9th, at Whites schoo!
house. Bring a well lilled basket,
and hear Miss Kelly of the tobac
co association, and Miss Susan
landon, from the cotton associa
tion, otiher speakers to be present
also. Come, you will enjoy the
time spent with us.

Tells How to End
Night Coughing
To quickly stop hackiner, irrltat- -
ing coughing at night, a very aim»
pie treatment may l)o had that eften enables you to sleep the ■whole
night through undisturbed nlmoab
At once.
The treatment ia baaed on a ro- jnarkable prescription known aa
Dr. King’s Now Discovery foi;
Coughs. You simply take a ten-,
6pooniu\ at night before retirinft
end hold it in your throat for 1Ц or 20 eeconds bcforo swallnwing it,
■without following with water, The
prescription haa a double action. It not only floothea andwellevos ir*
3'ltation and aoreneaa, but it quick«
ly looaena and removes the phlegm
end congeation which are tho direct cause of the coughing. So no mat
ter whether your cough ia dry an^
tight, or loose with much mucus,
ihe coughing soon stops, you can
usually sleep your accustomed time without a break, and the whole

In order that the people of this
and adjoining counties may not
be mislead by the reports that
are being wilfully misrepresent
ed by some parties in regards to
the $20,00 to $30,00 house rent in
Mocksville, we wish to say that
this is the most unjustifying re
port that could possibly be circu
lated, and there is not a word of
truth in it.
Wo have consulted practically
every man in the city that has a
house to rent, and we have been
unable to locate any $25.00 or
$30.00 per month houses, and
have found only a few that rent
as high as $20.00 per month. We
consider $20.00 per month a very
reasonoble rent but that is $7,50
more than we are payinir, and
believe that the people as a whole
are willing tu pay that for rent.
But shofild the rent of one house
become burdensome, you could
very easily move. Now, we. do
not wish to be unreasonable, but
in order to gi ve j ustice to our city,
and to the entire community, as
well as to the landlords, we wish
to ask you to just credit the
*‘$20.00 to $30.00 per month” re
port to the list of the “City
Knockers.”
We may be called “foreigners”
by s 0 m e narrow-minded rent
knockers-who have the liberty
to'move at any time their rent
becomes burdensome—but we
certainly can not be called traitors
to OUR TOWN AND COM
MUNITY, and we invite the pro
spective renters to come and in
vestigate the rent business, and
see for yourself if the rent isn't
within the reach of everyone.
And you can find work to do too,
if you are willing to do something
besides stack pies one-half for
the other.

ООО, bond issue by the senate
roads committee. The bill-was
' given V p ,,i:oval; by. the-house
committeo this evening* . '
Raleigh, Feb. 2.-The House
' cornmittee on roads tonight voted
unanimously torepoi't iavòrabiy
the bill introduced by Represen-
tives Turlington and Moore, pro
viding for the issuance of $20,
000,000 highway bonds, lo be fi
nanced by an enabling act now
in the course of preparation,
which will provide a tax, of four
cénte a gallon on gasoline, in the
place of three as at present and,
further, for a sinking fund of
$500,000 a year to retire the
bonds. Also, the enabling or fi
nancing act will provide that all
oyer $500,000 available be used In
^roadi-construction. The Bowie
bill WHi Jbe reported unfavorably,
..The principal address before the
committee tonight was that of
Mr.; bpwle, introducer of the $36,-
0ÒÒ,0ÒÒ biil. He said he yielded
to iiie change having been as
sured by thè governor that, if
thie credit of the state is now
strained, the executive will re
commend an additional $30,000,-
OOP two years from now,- Further,
he said the.governor had assured
him that, in addition to the $20,
ООО;poo proposed in the Turling-
tonTMoore bill, the sum, of ap
proximately $11,000,000 would be
available for the next-biennia,
derived from fjideral aid and the
unuaed portion of bonds already
authorized.
• Mr, Bowie said he did not want
to be.understood aa having been
workingin opposition to the gover
, nor at any time; that, all along,
It had been only an honest differ
ence of opinion, and that after
conferring with the governor, he
was willing to yield to the situa-
tion.
' A similar to that introdùcèd In
the house' today by Turlington
and Moore was introduced in tho
- eeriate, A compromise also is ex-
pectedin the upper branch where.
It is said, the $20,000,000 bill will

%i Phone Girl Gets
il ; A Real Bouquet
“Listen, my children, and j’ou
shall hear” of a telephone opei'a-
Lor 'who's reaiiy a dear.
Now Public Service does not
know the young lady in question.
But it is taking the word of a
newspaper editor for it, and ne ws-
paper t‘r)i>nrs nre just about the
most reliikblo jjeraons one meets
in a day's journey. So what the
editor of the St. Pauls Review
has to say carries a lot of weight
with Public Service. Here is what
the aforesaid editor says about
the aforosaid ttlephone operator
who is a dear;
“We very often hear (somebody
вау that flowers should be given
to the living instead of waiting
; until the person is cold and still
in death and can neither see the
beauty or smell the fraRrance ol
the pérhape expensive bouquet.
“It is not our intention to flat
ter anybody—that is iiot in our
. line—but we want to e»y a few
words about a certain young lady
who works for the public and trie*
- ip every way to please the people
of this community. We refer to
Mies Luía Rosier, day operator at
thè, telephone exchange, ^hose
voice in soft, even tones saying
‘Number, píeasé,' comee to ив
. over the wire many times a day
in response to our ring.
‘ ‘During our expert«nce in deal*
ing with the publicwebaveknown
a good many operators but have
never yet known one who showed
the patrons of h er oiflce the
courtesy and was as ïnxious to
р1еше as the one We haVe in St.
Pauls.”
Well and nobly writ, liliss Mc-
Neill-the editor of theReview is
Miss Julia McNeil uid St. Paula
is a pleasant iittlè town down in
Robeson County,
And St.'Pauls is all the more
pleasant because it Mia a news
paper editor with such fineness
• of bought an4 a telephone upera
tor who it) a dear.
Juniore Seek10,000,
New Members In State
1 ' J
With the state council meetings
of the Junior Order approximate*
ly seven months off, the councils
i n all sections of the state are now
engaged in the task of building
tip their membership in order that
the goal for new members set for
the state councilor, R. M. Gantt,
might be attained during the pre
sent iiBcal year.
Ten thousand new members for
the present fiscal year is the task
that Councilor Gantt has set for
the order in thia state. Reports
being received by him from many
c ouncils over the state are to the
effect that great activity is being
shown in adding to the member
ship and present indicAtions make
it apparent that the number of
new members desired by the pre
sent state cpunsilor will be Becur-
ed with some to spare.
One of the cardinal principle»
o£ the order is the teaching of the
Bible and patriotism to every boy
and girl and Councilor Gantt is
emphasizing this as one of the
things in which every councibmd
every Junior in the state should
take an interest. The presenta
tion of Bibles and flags to schools
throughout the state which do not
have them is also being stressed
as an important feature of the
work of the order. Numbers of
Bibles and flags have already been
presented to schools in all sections
of the state by the order but
others still remain without them.
The order is doing much towards
training the ccminsr citizens of
the state j'rom the viewpoint of
religion and patriotism.
Called Superior
To Their Mothers
London, Jan, 28—Ttie worn ni of
today are far superior to those oi'
a quarter of a century ago.
Professor Winford Cullis, of the
London School of Medicine for
Women, defiantly made thia re
ply to Sir William ArbiilhnotLHno
the eminent surgeon, who de
elarid in public that modern wo
man is “physically degenerate.”
“Modern woman is far better
physically than the hysterical,
fainting, underfed grandmothers
of a few decodes ago,” retorted
Professor Qullis.'
“It is nonsehse to say that the
woman of today is degenerating
physically, or in any other way.
“Our women are progressing
towards the truest and fullest
woman-hood. In-every way my
experience as a physiologist tes
tifies to that fact.
“For instance, those had cases
of anaemia which were so.fre
quent a few years ago have al'
most entirely disappeared. The
principle reason for this ia that
women have learned to lead niore
natural and healthy lives. Their
clothes are more sensible, too, in
spite of what Sir Arbuthnot Lane
says about rubber corsets.
“Our grandmothers used to
struggle inside high steel corsets
which gave them an amazingly
namw waist'line, and, incident-
aljy interfesred with their breath
ing. Paintings and hysterics
were exceedingly common among
women. How often do you hear
of that sort of thing occuring a-
mong women today?
"If there be any deforming in-
fluencfs in the articles of atlire
worn by the women of today—and
I seriously doubt it—they are no
thing like as serious as they were
twenty years ago. Rubber cor
sets do not interfere with respiru-
tioh. fireathing is a vitally im
portant jK>int, The modern girl
cotild hot play tennis or hockey
if she could not breathe.
“Another point is that the girl
of today eata more than Hér grand
mother did. In the old days it
was consideréd 'not nice’ for a
girl to eat heartily. Yet how can
you expect an engine to go if you
don’t put fuel into it?”
Professor Cullis took a parting
shot at Sir Arbuthnot Lane.
“Men should do their best to
inspire women to be human be
ings,” she said, “and this over
emphasis that they are women
should be avoided, Inthisdirec-
tien I find a more enlightened and
unprejudiced attitude am ong
young men than among the older
ones. This is a good sign.”

Riileiiili, luih. 3.—Despite the
faot that: tha crcdit union work of
the State Department of Agri-
liuiture - hiis noi; bicn pushed as
shoukt have boon, some of the
organizatiiins created in the past
have rendered excellent service
to the membdi'ti and have en
couraged habits of thrift and
business among thorn. Now it
is pi’oposed (0 chnngc tiie imme
of these orjfanizatwns from credit
union to “saving and loan asso
ciations”, stales George R. Ross,
chief of the Division of Markets.
Tlie amendment changing the
names will also permit the asso
ciations to borrow more money
than the old law and will broaden
the field of .service of these small
credit institutions.
Indications are .that better
prices for hogs will prevail in
1925, Fai mera are urged to save
thoir brood sows for breeding
this spring,'-.
Fur production is a source of
revenue to many North Carolina
farmers. A buyer in North Wil-
kepboro recently displayed to V.
W, Lewis of the Division of Mar
kets some furs for which he paid'
$15 each, Wild animals are a
source of revenue and should be
£0 conserved at;d 'proiectcd that
they may be used as a source of
income in this wyy.'
The demand is increasing for
soybean seed from North Caro
lina. A few promising new var-.
ieties like Laredo, Otootan, Bil
oxi and Haberlandt 38 seem to
be eepcciaily popular in the lower
cotton and Gulf states. The div-
.sicn of markets will assist in the
marketing of soybean seed for
sale. '
Tho Irish potato growers of
western North Carolina should
become n big factor in supplying
certified seed for market. The
plateau region of this section is
splendidly adapted to jnoduclion
of good seed, free from' disease
and tests show that these seed
will yield as high if not higher
than similar seed secured; from
other sections.

ProfitSi From Dairy-
. ing In Clay County
Washington, Feb. 5.—The na
tional banks of the United States
have set another record, it waa
disclosed in a statement tonight
by Comptroller McIntosh of the
currency, placing combined re
sources of the 8,049 reporting in
stitutions at $24,381,281,000 on
Decoinbor 31, tlie date of the last
call.
This is the highest total tho
banks’ resources ever have reach
ed and IS larger by nearly two
billion dollars than on December
SI, 1923. As compared with the
resources shown by the national
bank call of October 10, there
was a gain of $1,058.220,000.
The increase in resources,
said Mr. McIntosh, "discloses
the strength of the national bank-
ing'system and shows that it is
abundantly able to provide for
the requirements of the commun
ities served by its membership.”
In addition to the growth in re
sources, the loans and discounts
of the national banks also show
ed substantial increases, the total
as of December 31, being $12,319,
680.000, an advance of nearly
half abillion dollars for tho year.
Cash in the vaults of the banks
on the date of the call was $409,-
566.000, a gain of $49,465,000
since the call of October 10. The
banks' cash holdings" at the end
of 1924, however, was only $23,-
138,000 more than they had on
hand December 31, 19^.
t)epo8its of the nationally super
vised banking houses were given
at $20,000,208,000 December 31,
which was greater by $891,410,-
000 than on October 10 and more
than two billion dollars greater
than on the date of the last call
in 1923.
IRISH POTATOES AS SOURCE OF REVENUE
—IF WE DON’T PRODUCE ALL THE HAY
WE NEED,LErS DOIT IN THE FUTRUE
—THE SCHOOL A^ A COMMUNITY
CENTER-THE PRESS and PROGRESS
This paper has always believed that the potato growing in
dustry in-this section could be made one of the most profitable.
Our soil is naturally adapted to growing potatoes, and especially
Irish potatoes. But despite the fact that with little work and
little cost large yields of Irish potatoes can be realized, most of our
farmens have confined their activities in the past to the produc
tion, of Irish potatoes for home consumption only. Novst comes
along Mr. George R. Ross, chief of the Division of Markets, with
the statement that the growing of potatoes can be made a source
of revenue for North Carolina farmers.
"The world needs potatoes arid must ;have them,’ says Mr,
Ross. “All the producer has to do is to raise a gopd product and
put himself on the market as a producer. No region in the world
can raise better Irish potatoes, than are produced in Western North
Carolina, but the growers need to learn how to utilize their product
to get the biggest returns. /
“Groups of growers in Idaho have found that by wrapping
the spuds they secured $3.75 per hundred-weight as against $1.25
per hundred-weight sold in the ordinary way. Farmers of Ger
many make up their potatoes into such products as potato flake,s,
potato flake powder, dried potato flour, paste and scrap. These
products áre so heavy in comparison to their value .that they do
not enter into foreign trade but are consumed at fhome.” ;
We should think that the farmers of this section would dp
well to give more consideration to the potato industry.
Possibly this county produces as much hay as it consumes
If not thei'e is no reason why it'should not do so. There are no
better soil and climate for the growing of hay of various kinds to
be found anywhere than right here in this Piedmont section of
North Carolina. But since there may be a few who use hay .ship
ped in from other flection, we think the suggestion recontly .sent
out by Editor F, H, Jeter,,of the State Extension service, quoting
Prof. W. H, Darst, of the State Division of Agronomy at State
College, might be timely, fw ccrtainly. it shows the moro the
great necessity of our fam ers producing their own hay. . '
“It is common knowledge in thè large hay markets of thè
United States that hays of poor or inferior quality can be more
easily disposed of in the South than in the North,’ 'says Prof.
Darsi. "Southern hay; merchants are now. beginning to realize
this f«ct but they find it very difficult to buy hay of good quality.
We have for such a long period accepted ; the poor, hay handled
by our dealers, who in turn ¡have been forced to take inferior qual
ity material, that it is now hard to break away from that prac
tice.“But we want to make a start during the throe days of Feb
ruary—17, 18 and 19. We plan to hold a short coiirse at the Col
lege to teach hay dealers how the United States grades for hay
may bf :ippii ¡d and s:how them juat how they can buy on gi’ade
and srer. the rind of hay that they pay for. The Federal:Depart
ment 0+ Ai->iculture 'has e.slabliahed iedei’al grades for hay and
the State Department has a hay inspector in the .Division of
Markets who is licensed by the United States Department and
whose job it is-to see tliat the hay sold in this state comes up to
standard.“We wish to start with the dealers first and teach them
about the grades and how to recognize good hay, because if the
dealers are unable to buy good hay, then the farmers cannot ob
tain it. In this day and time we buy and sell on samples and
grade. If the hay being sold in North Carolina does not come up
to tJhe grade paid for, then we should know it. This, then, is the
reason for the short course for hay dealers to be held at the Col
lege on February 17, 18 and 19, Over fifteen leading hay dealera
and brokers have already stated that they would attend."

will try to put over is the converting of public school houses into
“Community Cmtsva," where all the folks can gather on various
occasions, wheri- farm and welfare officers, teachers and health
workers can centralize their activities. That’s a great idea. How
ever, it’s not an entirely new one. The late president Wilson in
his book, “The New Freedom,” advocated a similar movement,
and this paper has suggested a number of times and that the
school houses in the country sections should be made the com
munity center where the folks could meet and discuss questions
of intei'est to all and to the community. We hope the Governor
will-succeed in putting over his idea. It’s a great one.

One of the very first things an
editor learns is that he can’t
please everybody. The ones who
haven’t learned this are too dumb
to be trying to run a newspaper.
Human nature is so constituted
that some of our.readers woiild
like to have us feed them on scan
dal; some would like, to have us
tell the unvarnished truth about
them, while others would kill us
if we did. It is comforting to
know that the Savior.Himself did
not please everybody while he
was on earth. We labor hard to
entertain and please our subscri
bers, but that wo should occas
ionally fail is to be expected. ,^ou
will always find us ready to be
forgiven. No matter how old
we rriay.grow to be, however,
there is one thing that we are
never going to forget. And tha
is that an editor can’t nlease
everybody. Ifhe could he would

Raleigh, Feb. 1-Sweet potatoes
are a sure and easy crop to raise
in North Carolina, but producing
a large yield dcesliot alone mean
success. A price which will
yield a worth-while profit must be
secured for the roots. Only one
year out of many can such a price
be obtained at harvest time and
thisiaa condition which makes
storage necessary.
'Since storage of sweet pota
toes ia necessary to the profitable
returns from this crop, over a
period of years, it is time that
we give consideration to the
fundamental points that insure
the most succesful storage, ’ ’ sHys
Glenn 0. Randall, Extension Hor
ticulturist for the State College
of Agriculture. “Successful stor
age starts in tne plant bed. How?
By putting into practice certain
plans for growing good potatoes."
These suggestions, as given by
Mr, Randall, are as follows:
1. Do not use old plant bed.s.
2. Avoid using barnyard man
ure from stock that has been fed
sweet potatoes. (A precaution
against disease infection.)
8. Prepare plant bed a safe
distance away from original sweet
potato field.
4. Use soil in bed known to be
free of disease.
5. Seed selection is the key
note of success.
Like produces like.
(a) Select good uniform smooth
seed, free from cracks and blem
ishes.
(b) Cut off end of potatoes and
if discolored do not plant.
6. Treat seed with formalin
or corrisove sublimate before
bedding.
7. Bed seed so that potatoes
will not touch.
8. If perchance black rot
should get into the plant bed
(indicated by black streaks on
base of plants) by all means do
not plant those plants showing
such' symptons.

“It is common knowledge in
the large hay m arkets of the
United States that hays of poor
or inferior quality can be more
easily dippos^d of in the South
than in the North,” says Prpf.
Darat. "Southern hay merchants
are now beginning to realize this
i fact but they find it very diiiicult
to buy hay of good quality. We
have for such a long period ac
cepted the poor hay handled by
our dealers, who in turn have been
forced to take inferior quality
material, that it is now hard to
break away from that practice.
“But we want to make a start
during the three days of February
17, 18 and 19. We plan to hold
a short course at the College to
teach hay dealers how the United
States grades for hay may be ap
plied and show them just how
they can buy on grade and get
the kind of hay that they pay for.
The Federal Department of Agri
culture has established federal
grades for hay and the State De
partment ha^ ft hfty inspector in
the Division of Markets who is
licensed by the United States De
partment and whose job it is to
see that the hay sold in this state
comes up to standard.
"We wish to start with the
dealers first and teach them about
the 8rndes and how to recognize
good h{»yi because if ttie dealers
are unable to buy good hay, then
th« farmers cuniiot obtain it. In
this day and time we buy and sell
on samples and grade. If the
hay being sold in North Carolina
does not cume up to the grade

the logical question ia what

is simple—everything!
The first thing any ad

h6w to get paid. I found
that out. The first letters
of the alphabet I learned'
were P. L A.—that means

The real truth about why
I started writing ads for

a family kicking the toes
out of lots of shoes daily an4
I read where my employers
sold enough of their stuff so
that if the bags were laid
end to end they vvould
stretch further than from
Oklahoma to Yokohama—
and that’s some stretch. So
I think this looks good to
me. That’s why I signed

What Are We Going
To Do About It?
{Presbyterian Standard, o
Recently a professor, formerly
of Chicago, but now à teacher in
the North Carolina College for
Women, came to Charlotte to give
an extension course on sociology
before a class of public school
teacheis.
He is reported to have said that
Genesis is only a bit of Israelitish
mothology, handed down by word
of mouth from one generation to
another. . He said that this vvi's
proven by the fact that all other
primitive people had similar my
ths and legends.
He ridiculed th e account of
God's writing the Ten Command
ments on two tables of stone, ab
unbelievable.
The miracles were simply re
presentatives of great truths. The
feeding of the five thousand was
only an illustration of the fact
that Jesus taught enough truth
to satisfy th a t many people.
When questioned as, to the 12
baketfull remaining, he thought
that meant that there were more
wonderful trtithi given than the
people could understand. It seems
though that he did hot try to
answer the question why Jesus
took these truths from tlie little
boy’s basket. As a fitting climax
to this peformance he said that
he did not know that there was
any one that believed in the whole
Bible.
When one reads these remark
able views, he wonders how the
people of this God-fearing State
will receive them, whether they
are willing to sit at the feet of
this-disciple of iA odernism in its
rankest form, who Judges our
faith by that of Chicago. We
also wonder if these people whose
fathers planted m early days tho
schools and churches of our State,
are willing to allow the money of
the State to be used to employ
such men to inatill their subtle
poison into the minds of our young
women, and thus touch the com
ing mothers of the future.
The State College for Women
has done a great work for women
in the past, and now we hope that
the leaders will guard these young
women at the most impression
able period of their life.
The authorities are asking for
a larger appropriation from the
Legislature, That such teachings
are tolerated will scarcely appeal
to those who hold th e purse-
strings.

is now better for the churches to

to the Sunday School plans of
their respective churches. How
ever. I have no fight to make on
it if others see it differently, pro
vided they do not hold them on
Sundays. I would not approve or
cooperate with my own church if
its similar programs were pulled
off on Sundays. I hope my people
will nnt cooperate with any thing
of that kind on Sundays. And I
prefer that they do not hold them
in my churches on Sundays, This

thodist one and all others,
If the church of God is to suc

pray and work to create a more

build up the church of God by
galloping around all oyer creation

May our God be merciful to us

Health reco rd s everywhere
show that February ia the month
when pneumonia i h most pre*
valent. Certainly February and
March in this climate are the two
months in the year when the num
ber of cases run highest. That
being the case, it behooves every
thinking person to exercise extra
ordinary care during February.
Pneumonia is now known as a
disease communicated through
contact with a germ, but whether
or not the germ takes effect, de
pends largely upon the conditions
of one’s general state of health
at the time the germ may be taken
in. S6 keep your system in a
flghtinir condition, Eat, sleep,
exercise a plenty and get an
abundance of fresh air and all the
sunshine possible.
Are you one of those who leave
fresh dirt spread over the side
walk to make a veritable mud-
puddle for your neighl^rs to have
to walk thru? Oris your drive
way so arranged that it empties
a lot of mud and slush onto the
sidewalk every rain that falls,
making the walk about aa muddy
ua though it had never been pav
ed? If you are in this clasa, think
what it WQuld mean If every re
sident in the town was the same.
We yrould have sidewalk« as mud
d}f and sticky as though we had
no pavement at all. Therefore;
when, through necessity, you get
frwh dirt on the sidewalk in^ront
of your premises, take a few
minutes and sweep it off before
the next rain sticks it fast and
makes a slippery, muddy place
for other citizens to have to walk
over.
R.'ileigh, Feb. 10.-Without iir-
rangement, the House last night
voted thru its third reading u bill
which would increase the speed
limit on public highways in the
rural districts from 30 to 35 miles
an hour and fix 20 and 15 miles
an hour as proper rates inside of
incoporated placea, dependent
upon the congested condition of
the streets.
The measure introduced early
in the session was reported fav
orable by the committee, its
passage caused no comment, ex
cept an inquhy as to its provis-
iont.

Township Sunday
School Convention
Hot Lnnch At School
Along with the course in Die-
tenics, the Mocksviiie High
School Home Economics Depart
ment, for the health benefit cf
the students in that school, has
decided upon a plan by which hot
unches may be served at school.
This plan enables the studewis to
obtain, at a very small cost, hot
soups or hot chocalates, milk and
sandwiches, also fruit and candy
which help to make up an ideal
lunch for school boys and girls.
The child that brings his lunch
to school may buy something hot
0 supplement his lunch; or if he
wants a light hinch he may buy
t at school. This is not for the
purpose of making money-al
though we shall use all funds de
rived to held build up our depart-
mentt but to promote the health
of your child. Children eat heart
ier when they have a warm lunch
and their growing bodies need it.
the parents of the children
wish to take advantage of this
opportunity and, will give their
children five cents they can now
have all the advantages which
tiave heretofore been offered in
many of thü larger schools of our
towns and cities.

Sunday was a great day at
Fork Church. We held a good
Sunday School Convention, that
was enjoyed by many. Mr. J.
R. Foster, township president,
called the convention to order at
2:30. Prof. r’itzgerald delivered
an address of weloome, that
made us feel as we always do,
that we were truly welcomed
and wanted at Fork Church. Re-
svionse by county secretaiy.
Mr. H. E. Barnes, county
superintendent of the adult divi
sion made a good talk on the a-
dult department. His talk was
fall of Inspiration and was enjoy
ed by all.
Mrs. R. P. Anderson, young
people’s division superintendent,
made a good talk on the young
people’s department. She told
us that a judge said that he had
brought before him 400 young
men and that only three out of
the 400 were Sunday School
young men, He said that if all
of our young people would at
tend our Sunday Schools that we
would have no need for jails.
Mr. T. M. Hendrix, county
president, made a talk on the
children’s division.
We had several good songs.
This is the last Sunday School
Convention for this convention
year, our institutes all held for
which we are very thankful.
We have uow covered all of
the aims of the No^th Carolina
Sunday School Association. All
we have to do now is to get the
reports from the Sunday Schools
sent in to the State Association
and. we will havuourlOO percent.
We have some of the above
reports. If your Sunday School
has not sent in its report, please
send it to your township or coun
ty secretary at once. We want
to get the reports in as soon as
we can.
Let’s go to Greensboro to the
state convention April 28, 29 and
30th which will be held at tho

Weekly Market Notes
Jurors For March
Term of Court
Raleigh, Feb. 9—The potato is
a good source of revenue for
North Carolina farmers, believes
George R. Ross, chief of the Di
vision of Markets, who wishes to
encourage growers of the State t(>
grow this crop and market it
successfully.
“This world needs potatoes
and must have them,” says Mr.
Ross. "All the producer haa to
do is to raise a good product and
put himself on the market as a
producer. No region in the world
can raise better Irish potatoes
than are produced in western
North Carolina but the growers
need to learn how to utilize their
product toget the biggest returns;
"Groups of growers in Idaho
have found that by wrapping
the spuds they secured $:i.75 per
hundred-weight as against $1.25
per hundred-weight sold in the
ordinary way. Farmers of Ger
many make up their potatoes in
to such products as potato flakes
potato flake powder, dried potato
flour, paste and scrap. These
products are so heavey in com
parison to their value that they
do not enter into foreign trade
but they are consumed at home.”
The State Division of Markets
has adopted standard grades for
eggs, prepared by the United
States Department of Agriculture
and adopted by the egg trade
generally.
Standard grades for hay have
also been adopted and the Divi
sion of Markets has a licensed
inspector, Mr. R. B. Etherrido,
who is available lo inspect ship
ments about which there might
be some controversy. Mi'. Ether-
ridge will lecture at the short
course for hay dealers ti> be held
at State College, February 17,18
and 19.

Schools And Democracy
Democracy, even if we cannot
agree in our meaning for the term
undoubtedly has represented a
growing force, Some idea of it
has appeared in practically .every
civilization. It has been restrain
ed in various vi^ays and for var
ious lengths of time in many cases
butin all instances it haa moved
onward through periods of peace
ful growth in peioda of arrested
development, which means, when
analyzed, eras of blocked dispos
ition and reluctant revolutions'
But the big idea has always fin
ally surged ahead. The courag
eous have led it. and the fool
hardy have opposed it. We in
Ameiica think that our civiliza
tion represents the highest point
which this onward march pf de
mocracy has reached, but we
have with with us those who re
sent it, those who are striving
with all of the power which they
have to organize a system of re^
straint which in eur schopls would
be represented in terms of a sys
tem of training ad opposed to ed
ucation,' We have those who
still think In the face of all that
ia revealed through history that
somehow we ought to devise a
system of training that will fx
theings so that w6 can settle bac c
in'ease and move never more.
Those whose philosophy of life la
static in its effect, whether they
realize it or not, are the lineal, in
tellectual descendants of all the
blundering that has been perfor
med by man up to the present
moment. Generali they are lazy
minds. They do not study much
and when they do they let their
prejudices select their reading
material. The mind that is quicc
tpread what it does not want to
hearis an article too scarce in this
day of intellectual crises.-A, L

Chairman Borah,
Besides this recommendation
the committee proposes enact'
ment of the corrupt practices act
recently approved by the, senate
79 to three, as a rider to the pos^
tal pay and rate increase bil
which now is pending as a part
of the postal bill recommendec
by the senate post office commit
tee as a substitute for the house
measure.'
Moreover tho campaign com
mittee suggests that in perfect
ing the corrupt practices laws an
eflort be made to accomodate the
limit of expenditures by candida
tes for federal offices to the size
and population of the state. It
say.4 it is neither wise nor ju/jt to
fix the same amount for a candi
date in a state with a population
pf li.000,000 as in a state with a
PQlitilation pf'7,000,000 or more.
Besides these recommendations
for legislation, the report con
tains detailed accounts of receipts
expenditures and contributions
as given by the nationol commit
tees of the major political parties
for the last campaign. The re
port says the investigation con
ducted by the committee in Wash
ington and Chicago on the closing
day of tho 1924 campaign sho,wed
that:
The republican national com
mittee collected $4,360,478 and
expended H'270,409,
The democratic. national cpm
mittee cellected $821,037 and ex-;
pended $903,908,
The progressive or independent
national committee collected$221-
837 and expended $221,977.
While making no reference to
the LaFollette charges of the
cpllectien of a huge- republican
‘slush fund” to control the elec
ion, tijo roporL says that, al
though some inaccurracies may
be found in the figures p,resented
‘it believes the report gives the
facts.”
The beginning of the commit
tees inquiry followed the publi
cation of the LaFpllette charges,
and much pf its attentipn was de-
vivted tp them. One pf the alleg-
ation.4 by Senator LaFollette was
that the republican organization
was colkicting large sums in eas
tern states for use in the north
western states in an eiTort to the
control of the election there, The
testimony was 'that the republi
can committee obtained the great
)ulk of contributions in New York
Pennsylvania and Illinois, and
that the democratic organization
got most of its funds from New
York and one or two other states.

VALUE OF EARLY TRAINING—DR. RICE ON
DIRT AND CLEANLINESS-MAN DIRTIEST
OF ALL ANIMALS—HOGS NOT EXCEPTED.
Кшй; The advertisements
- it pays. '
The Eocldngham Post-Dispatch says that “if a boy hasn’t
learned the value of a dollar by the time he is 18 years'old, he^
has little chance of ever knowing its real worth,” and that paper
never uttered a truer statement. Fact of tbe matter is mpst boys
get abput ail the real training fér cliaracter building befprc they
reach 18, and that which they receive after that ,age is meagre
indeed. This being the case, it dees seem that parents would take
more interest in early training of children,along all lines. When
we realize that pur bpys and girls are made or not made before
they reach tho age of 18, and that training and character develop
ment left oil' until after that age are next tp worthless, we should
certainly take advantage pf the time as Pur bpys and girls grow
up.
February 'and March 'are net pnly the mpnths when pnou
mpnia is mpst prevalent, but they are the mpnths when thpse
diseases which originate from lack of ventilation and proper sani
tation run rampant—measles, emaÍl-po\', colds, itch, etc. These
thrive as the human system commences to be m'ost effected from
the long winter shut in. This being the case, every perspn shoulc
make it a point to get all the fresh air and isunshine possible and
avpid filth and dirt. Speaking of dirt and îts effect. Dr, T, В
Rice in the Indiana Health Bulletin, gives out a fine piece of ad
vice. It is 'Sp timely and sp interesting that we think it wprth
while to allow space for its reproduction. Dr. Rice says :
■Nature is <ilean, ;
When one goes intp tho virgin-fprest he need net fear te drink
tho natm*al water, Tho air is fresh and pure, the.ground is clean ;
everything is chaste juid beautiful ; there is no danger pf spiling
one's clothes, or bis hands, or bis soul; thé odors which greet pne's
nostrils î\re the sweol, perfume of flower and pine; the coats of
the wild animals nnd birds aro sleek and glossy, their mouths
though innocent of a tf\oth brush are clean, and their bodies are
supple and trim.
Then comes into this se.tiung imperial man, man made in the
image of Gpd, man the idealist, man the dirty. Indeed it is liter
ally true that by far the dirtiííst ef all animals is npt the hog, but
man. Hogs are cleanly in their habits whe'n living in a state of
nature, and are dirty only when confined in a man-made, pen.
Tlie trail of man is marked 'and..:^ell,marked by tin cans,
scraps of paper, remnants ^v^asted fopd, gai'bage, ugly camp
sites, fecal depesits, flies and othsj: disgusting reminders of civili
zation, 'Primitive inan must move his camp at frequent intervals
to avpid his own filth, and allpw nature tp clean up after him.
Civilized man rapidly soils his vacation camp sites in spite of laws
forest rangers, notices, pleadings, and especially the cleansing
action of nature for nine monthe in the year.
As man begins to attach 1' imself to the soil he builds д house
abutting put the fresh, pure air, and the cleansing sun and rain.
In his back yard he digs two holes, from one of which he takes his
drinking water and into the other conveniently near he deposits
bis excrement. The manure pile, the pig pen, the chicken yard,
the swill barrel and the privy are but a few steps from his door
way, .
As he comes to Hve in large cities conditions become even
worse. He takes his'drinking water from and returns his sewage,
often unaltered into the samo stream. Other cities above and be-
ow dp the isame. Ho pollutes the air with smoke, and with a
thousand and one. other npxipus gases, edors and fumes. Sputum
and the excroment pf horses dry pn the sidewalks and streets,
and then blow into our faces and mouths. Grass dies, bii'ds leave
except the filthy English sparrow), trees die, flies, roaches,
venniji and rats swarm. Alleys lined with dirty outbuildings are
filled with garbage cans running over. The divine symphony of
nature is replaced by the din of clash and clang and rattle, of horn
and bell, of oath and obsconity.
Man is the only animal that spits. Sputum is his most used
medium of exchange. We swap saliva with all comers. It is on
our hands, uur faces, our clothes, our books, our streets, the floor,
the wall—everywhere. If it were blue, everything would be stain
ed a deep blue Uj the average level of the moutli.
Dirty mouths, dirty hands, dirty bodies, dirty clothes, dirty
tiouses, dirty beds, dirty food, dirty water, dirty milk, dirty air,
c irty streets, dirty language, dirty .thoughts, dir'ty politics, dirt,
irt, ugly dirt, disgusting dirt, dirty dirt. There is constantly
waged the battle of decency versus dirt, with decency only recent-
y taking its present stand. It 'is not long since St. Simon Stylites
Avas regarded as a holy saint—'a dirty saint tp be sure, but all the
mpre hely because he was dirty.
Dp we need tp be dirty? Is dirtinass an unchangeable char
acteristic of the human species ? Certainly not. Thsn why are
we dirty ? 'Do we, like it so, or are we tpo lazy to clean up, or is it
ignorance that is the reason ? Let us believe that it is indifference.
It is this belief that has prompted the луг1 ting of this unpleasant
article. Let us call dirt, dirt, dirt in the Anglo-Saxon sense—filth,

á Ford a day or so ago, moved
one of the mo.Ht observant sena
tors to applause for tho pose
of ecpnpmy, It turned oüt to be
ho gesture. It is the Robesonian’s
fixed purpose, in the governing
business, ,,
The governor has not indicatod
any purpose to ask the state for
a new autpmpbile. lie is apply
ing rigorous economy to th e
state’s car. He goes down into
his personal pocket when he rides
home and refuses to lay the cost
efihdi vidual'travel uppn the cpm-
mpnwealth. He began this the
first day that he relumed tp Lum-
berton and beat Harry Nettles to
the'spirit of the Nettles bill al
most a month.
, Tho manison car,, a Cadillac
Umpueine, has run 60,000 miles.
It is the second chariot that the
Morrison adminirttration used. It
ran day and night, in sunshiné
and rain, but it goes still. Mr.
McLean is inclined in his state
wide plan of economy, to keep
this car going so long as its works
are good. It does well yet.
The executive doesn't put on
fancy fronts, lie walks most of
the time that he has away from
state business and ho is some per
ambulator.. When he hits the con
Crete floor at the Halifax entrance
the building opens like a football
line and h« comes, into the pfflce
with a sweep, He walks himself
into physical fitriess and calls little
bn the executive Pullman. He
did not know until today that the
newspaper men had caught onto
his habits. They teased him about
hispfficialhand-me-outs, Pardpn
declines are written en a ftlip pf
paper instead ef a page. He
aughed and told the boys that he
was pi’dering everybody to spend
he smallest amount of money and
to waste nothing. •
The injection of personal econo
my into the office and its allied
business is telling on the legisla
ture. The assembly would have
jeen in poor mood for the Nettles
3Ü1 had the executive .who does
not need to be economical not set
the pace. In the olden days when
the biggest man in the state gov
ernment thought North Carplina
Was piling up surplus where npw.
s a monumental deficit, nobody
elt the need of any economizing.
?he Solomonean saw of that ‘ ‘that
scattereth and yet increaseth; and
thatis that withholdeth more than
is meet, but it tendeth to ppver-
ty,” But Mr, McLean has dis
covered that the old, system of
distribution has cost more than it
savedi. The governor is setting
officials an example in the con
scientious employment of state
machines. His excellency will
not ride on personal business at
the expense of the state.' He will
help tp enforce the Nettles bill if
it e ver becomes law.

ílO ÍD COllINS fOÜND
DEAO IN THE CAVE
Gave City, Ky., Feb. 16.—The
long struggle ¡s ended. Mother
earth,, after clinging grimly and
in death to Floyd Collins, for
more than 17 days, finally sur-
rendere-1 at 2:45 o’clock this af
ternoon, lu.cl Viithoiit warning
opened a tiny hole between a re
scue shaft and the natural tomb
of the cave explorer.
Peering down this tiny fissure
! into Sand Cave, the brave work
ers who ha,d waged an unequal
combat with the natural forcea
of the earth, saw what they had
fought so hard for had bien lost,
Collins was dead.
/ But they will reclaim his body,
only to. restore it again to the
rugged hills he roamed as a youth
and explored as a man. ^
Collin's legs will be amputated
. just above his ankles in order to
expedite his delivery from Sand
Cave, if officials in charge of the
rescue work decide further later
al operations are too dangerous
to workmen who risked their
Ijves to secure the caveman's re
lease.
This was made known tonight
when Lee Collins, aged father of
the cave victim, signed a sworn
statement to the effect that if
JMr, Carmichael, director of ac
tual rescue operations, determin
ed further work too hazadous for
;his men, he had signed hisper-
‘ mission to resort to amputation.
“Thank God, they’ve found
him," This was Lee Collins’
statement after his body had been
found.
A terse statement, signed by
■ the three men who had led scores
of others in the long fight, told
the result, and paid tribute to
their assistants.
After. describing the break
' through tneroof of Sand Cave
, and the preliminary investigation
of it by Albert Marshall, the
statement sHid:
- , “His game little partner, Ec
Brenner of Cincinnati, whose
: worlc has been very conspicuous
and of untold value by reason of
hia small statute and gráat
strength and iron nerve, went
down head-foremost into this
hazardous pit, and with a light
closely examined tho face and
position of the man who wo un
derstand is Floyd Collins, and
called up to Mr. Carmichael, five
feet above him, that the man
was cold and apparently dead,”
No sounds came from Collins
at all, no despiration, no move
ment,and the eyes wore sunken,
indicating, according to the phy
sicians, extreme exhaustion go
ing with starvation.
The bulletin was signed by
Brigadier General H. H. Den
hardt, H. T. Carmichael and M.
E, S. Posey.
Dr. William Hazlett of Chicago
and Dr, C. E. Francis of Bowling
GrecarKy., annuurlced later that
from information they had ob
tained, Collins had been dead
more than 24 hours.
Although the quest for Collins
' had ended in locating his body,
the tired miners, saddened by the
realization that the man the;;
. - tried so hard to save was dead,
turned, heavy hearted, to the
still dangerous task of recovering
his body.
Hours of digging remain ahead
I of them before they can ■ remove
Collins from his tightly wedged
position in the narrow passage to
Sand Cave,
When, finally, they havp
brought him from this tomb,
Collins' b )dy will be consigned
to a grave in the cave, after fun
eral services, und>ir tho high
dome Crystal Gave, which itd' li'
stands aaa'monumenlio the man.
The “mbny^e9t'’|j-^j^the res
cue wov''?*^. liwvWPr, will be
torn downvby. íhftíHi that
■ be dynamited after Collins' body
has been removed. :
■'It is a dangerous place, and
we don’t want anyone else trap.
pedin there,” said Mr. Carmich
ael, in charge of the excavation.
Collin.« was trapped by a falling
boulder in Sand Cave at 10 o’clock
Friday morning, January 30. His
plight was discovered 24 hours
lata', and there then began a
great fight against nature to
rescue him. Heavt-breaUing dis
appointment, the workers en
countered repeatedly, as nature
dumped one handicap after an
other into their camp.
At last, however, man’s per
severance won, and the limestone
roof of Sand (3aye collapsed today
under the weight of the miners
and dropped them into the natural
passage, between whore Collins
was trapped and a “squeeze
which closed the natural passage
some ten days ago. But their
indomitable struggle to sink a
shaft to save him was in vain.
There, his cyts sunken, Collins
lay. The man the rescuers had
worked so hard and so long to
save had paid with his life tor his
search for the earth’s under
ground treasures.
The continuously d rip p in g
water was not sufficient to keep
Collins alive, the physicians said.
His jaw was in a tension when
found,
Carmicheai, who had been in
command of the heroic volun
teers, expressed his admiration
of the unselfish and unceasing
labor of the men “from the low
liest water boy in the man who
was about to receive hia A, H.
degree,”
He said this experience had
strengthened his faith in human
nature and that he had found the
men were “99 pure gold.”
“After 20-odd years of con
struction work, I have never seen
a group of unorganized men do
work BO well and quickly,” said
Mr. Carmicheai.
"These volunteer lab o rers,
ranging from small boys to old
men, have each given every ounce
of his strength to his duty,” he
added.
'Out of the hundredsthat vol
unteered and worked for me,
théy were 99 per cent pure gold.
“The shaft work was started
a week ago last Thursday at 1:30
o’clock in the afternoon, and only
five ounces of dynamite was used
in driving the shaft a depth of
60 feet. It was all done by pick
and shovel.”
Late tonight miners continued
to timber up the lateral and en
large the passageway to Collins,
so that hia bodycould be retnoved.
Officials said it might take 36
hours, as the work would lack the
fiery energy which has driven
the rescue crew continually for
11 days,
From the early days of the
cave man’s entrapment, down
through the days there was wag
ed a great struggle with nature
and the element.s. Friends and
neighbors rushed to his aid, and
time after time rescue parties
went into the narrow, crooked
passage and wormed their way
along its slimi^ course to where
he was imprisoned, Their efforts
to get him out were unavailing,
and others from the outside came
Miners from the nearby coal
fields and from the asphalt mines
of tho Kentucky Rock Asphalt
company at Kyrock, Ky., flocked
to the rescue.
Governor W. S. Fields .sent Mv.
Posey to the scene as his personal
representative. State troops fol
lowed, a little handful of them at
first, and then Geneial Denhardt,
commander of the 7oth infantry
brigade, was ordered to take com
mand of the situation. The re
sources of the state were thrown
behind tbo rescue efforts.
Dr. W. D, Funkhouser of the
University of Kentucky, oime in
as the state's geologist, and Mr.
Carmicheai, general superinten
dent of the plant ¡it Kyrock, who
had come here os individual,
joini'd .iorces with the siute and
Wi.s pu; irs i:hai ge of rfscuu opera
tions, • ■
Meanv/hile th e unorganized
forcfs to drair Collins out through
tho natural tunnel had been re
placed by an organised force. But
this force was unequal to the task
of overcoming one obstacle after
another that was placed in the
way of those who tried to save
the trapped explorer.
Nature had laid its trap in the
first place so that no one could
got to it. Collins was in the nar
rowpassage between the rescuers
and the rock that held him down.
When hopes were high that they
I soon could get to the boulder, a
oave-in closed the passage way.
This was cleared away only to
have an impenetrable one dump
ed in the crevice, completely cut
ting off the prison from the
crevice.
A shaft was started a few feet
from the mouth of tne cave and
for eleven days workers slowly
dug their way toward the cave.
Time after time, just when they
believed the end of their long
fight was at hand, nature played
another trump and delayed the
day when Collins was to be found.
Today, however, v.'hile the miners
kept digging away, the break
came, and at last revealed the
victim.
Preliminary plans to hold an
inquest atthe mouth of Sand Cave
were made this evening. It pro
bably will be six hours, before
the passageway to Collins can be
enlarged sufficiently to permit a
first hand medical examination.
Physicans will then crawl to
Collins and determine, if possible,
when he died.
As soon as the body can be
brought to the shaft, T. C. Tur
ner, magistrate for district num
ber six. will assume charge of it.
The bodv will be brought to the
surface and another examination
will be held for record purposes.
Turner said a jury might be
empaneled on the scene of the
fatality.
A local committee will take
charge of the body after the in
quest, and it will lie in state in
the gymnasium of the Cave City
high eehool for one day.
Concord News
Cave City, Ky., Feb. 17.-On
the hill above Hand Cave this
afternoon his family and friends
held funeral services for Floyd
Collins. There was no casket,
no corpse, no grave; and no mar
ker.
Sixty feet underground in the
Sand Cave trap which closed up
on him 18 days ago, lay the body
of Collins, discovered a few days
too late by the rescuers. Rather
than risk the lives of ariy of the
tireless volunteers, his family
choose to leave him in the cave
for his last sleep.

Are Planning To Serve
Hot Lunch At Schoo
We have been planning for some
time to have hot lunch served at
school in the home economics de
partment, but have felt a little
hesitancy in undertaking such a
task. Mrs. Tatum has planned a
menu for six weeks, so that a
child can have something hot for
lunch every day, for the '^mal
sum of five cents. It is not to bo
run at all for a commercial pur
pose, but for the benefit of the
children, who have to eat. cold
i\mch every day. Did you ever
I stop to think that a child, who
attends school eleven years and
carries lunch from home, eats
about two thousand cold lunches?
' ’hia is enough to ruin the diges-
;ive system of anyone.
Last week, Mrs. Tatum started
serving hot lunch with the help
of the girls in her departnient.
Tt was without a doubt a success.
A number of the children and
teachers are taking advantage of
It. The behavior in the dining
room has been unquestionable.
Not all of the children, who can
afford this lunch are taking it.
We are sure there are some who
nted it who cannot afford it. We
wonder if there are not some
public spirited men and women
in Mocksville who would like to
contribute twenty-five cents each
week towards giving some poor
child a hot lunch. A better in
vestment could hardly be made.
The citizens of th e town and
community are requested to come
over and take lunch at school
some day, and see what is being
offered to the children.'

First Volstead Violations
Washington, Dec. 22.-A . B.
Coltrane, federal prohibition di
rector for North Carolina, has
called the attention of the house
committee on the alcoholic liquor
traffic to conditions in the sitate
respecting enforcement of the
law, replying to an inquiry >ts to
the status of enforcement.
•‘r am of the opinion," Mr.
Coletifahe said, "from observa
tion and experience in enforcing
theplrohibition law m North Caro
lina, that the Volstead act should
be changed so that the prison
sentence could be given on the
first offense, leaving it discre
tionary with the judge. If' this
were done I think we would re
ducethenumberofsecondoiTenses
very much.” .
Mr. Coletrane said the principle
source of liquor supply “is from
illicit distilling and transporting
from South Carolina and Georgia
into this state."
He continued:
"Considerable whiskey is man
ufactured in some of our moun
tain counties and<quite a supply
comes from the eastern swamp
section, . A considerable amount
of the suppoiied ‘bottled in bond'
liquor is brought in from Georgia
and South Carolina and a largo
amount of regular blockade liquor
from the mountain district of
Virginia. We are bothered a great
deal by thin liquor being trans
ported into the state by high
powered automobiles."
Mr. Coletrane would provide
that, agents migbt use the captur-
e|d automobiles to chase bootlegg
ers, stating that it is necessary
at present to hire machines.
He continued:
“Aa it is now our agents have
to go to garages and hire auto
mobiles to run down these rum
runners, and as a rule the garages
are all in sympathy with the
liquor traffic, so that when our
men go to hire a car iWseems very
often that information has been
sent ahead."
Co-operation with local authori
ties is. poor in some counties. Mr.
•Coletrane said jail sentences are
given less in eastern North Caro
lina than in western.
"The greatest deficiency in the
enCorcenient of the prohibition
law," he continued, “has been
due to the court. In the western
district we have a splendid judge
and splendid jury system in the
federal court and the law is well
enforced, but in the eastern dis
trict the jury system is very de-
fioient and the judge has been
very lenient to offenders. It is
almost impossible to get a jury
that will convict a liquor violator. ’’
He commended the results of
prohibition.
"We have a sober and indus
trious population," hesaid. “We
have schools 50 per cent better
than they were under the liquor
rule. Our county homes are not
so crowded. The people are more
prosperous in every way and tho
deposits in our banks have in
creased wonderfully.*^’
Club Girls Enroll
For Season’s Work
Raleigh, Feb. 23.—May 1 has
, been set as the date for closing
enrollment in the home demon
stration clubs organized and con
ducted by the home agent.4 of the
State College extension division.
“In looking over our records
for the past year, we find that
13,050 girls were enrolled ia 563
clubs," says Mjss Maude Wallace
assistant state agent in home de
monstration work. "Thia is a fiiio
record but even a larger enroll
ment should be secured for 1925.
This is the time for club members
to secure new members and to
begin to boost cltib wbS. In do-
ing this, We must remember that
the clubs must be organized prop
erly. Thia doli. not mean that
the meetings are necessarily stiff
and formal but it does mean that
the simple parliamentary prac-
_tices should be observed that
club girls may all Ifearn hov/ a
a public meeting ia conducted.
"That the members may keep
up their interest in club work,
it is nece.4sary to make each meet
ing worth while. This, may be
done by planning out the pro
grams in advance and having the
subjects announced at least six
months before the , meeting, if
poasible. Real leaders should be
selected as officers at the first
ineeting. It 18 always nccessary
to have a good presideint and
secretary. It is the pu грозе of
girl^' clubs to meet the nSeds of
the girls in a community from an
¿dt eational and social standpoint"
■ ; Miss Wallace' states that food
,work was niost popular Vast ,y^r
with 10,849 girls enrolled, Gbm-

Rowan Cotton Mill
Will Double Capacity
Salisbury, Feb. 21.—Thedirec-
tor.4 of the Rowan cotton mills
this week decided to more than
double the capacity of the mill,
which is located near the southern
limits of Salisbury. The number
of spindles in the mill is to be in
creased from 7,000 to 17,000 and
to take care of these an addition
is to be built larger than the pre
sent mill building. Twenty new
houses are to be built in the mill
village. This mill manufactures
fine yarns and has had orders for
njiore than it could supply since it
began operation two and a half
years ago.
Wake Forest Has Pro
duced 1028 Lawyers
The books of Dean, N. У. Gul
ley show that one 1028 men who
wpre trained at the Wake Forest
Law school have been granted
license to practice in North Caro-
lin.4. Dr. Gulley has headed the
school since its founding 30 years
ago, an average of 34 men who
were trained in the school hav
ing secured license each yeai’.

WOMAN 102 YEARS OLD IN JAIL. POOL
BILL KILLED-ASKS EEDERAL GOVERN
MENT TO RECOGNIZE MECKLENBURG
DECLARATION. DOCTOR FRAZER’S
STAND ON COLLEGE TRAINING.
Over in California the jother day a woman 102 years old was
found with more whiskey in 'her possession than the law allowed.
She was hauled into court to give an account for her offense. She
admitted that she owned the liquor, but was somewhat pertinent
to the court. She very defiantly told the judge that “I have drunk
liker all my life and I am certainly not going to quit now-” The
coiirt ordered her to jail, so she will doubtless imbide little during
the next thii^ty days. But, seriously,'it does seem a little “hard
boiled” to put an old woman 102 years old in jail just because she
insists in continuing to do that which was entirely law;ful during
her childhood, youth, young womanhood and even in her old age,
for she was certainly nearing the century mark when the Volstead
Act was passed. It does look like the judge might have found
some other way of disposing of the case.
The General Assembly kills the Poole Bill providing for the
prohibition of the teaching of Darwinism in the state schools.
That is as we had expected. We are not defending Darwinism,
but the way to keep the religioii of tiie fathers pure is not through
legislative enactment. The ch'tivh and the home can protect the
Christian religion, if they do’their duty, and certainly no legisla'
live enactment would help should the home and the church fail
in their duties io the young. Wo have learned that we can't con
trol people's thoughts by law. To attempt to do so would be a
joke. . .
Representative Bulwinkle has introduced a measure in Con-
gi’ess which would legally recognino the genuniness of tho Meck
lenburg Declaration of. Independence. And it now looks like it
may pass and becomo law. The measure also calls for fbdoral
recognition of the 150th commemoration of that daring act on
the part of the ambattled Mecklenburg farmers. !Mr. Bulwinkle
is to be congratulated if ho gets that measure through. The de
plorable thing is that the event has not long ago been universally
recognized. ' -
Dr. William II. Frazer, president of Queens College, Char
lotte, has taken a firm stand on the question of religious training
in that college. ' At a time when Darwinism, materialkm, skepti-,
cism and other isms and cisms are being discussed and indirectly
taught in a number of schools and colleges, it is refreshing to see
a big nian at the head of a great college take the stand which Dr.
Frazer hfts .taken. Here'fi a part of the Queens platform as'given
out recently by Dr. Frazer:
‘‘No theory of science of practice or of life is promulgated
in this institution if It co;itradicts or would invalidate the inspira
tion of the Biblp. Tho Book is looked upon as an inspired volume
and its teachings square the theories taught concerning science
and life." ' , , , , ’
“A wellTrounded womanhood with a body developed as per
fectly as poissible, a mind educated in all of the rubrics of litera
ture, language,.science and the fine arts; and a soul biiilt into the
lilieness of Christ Jesus, a fully developed, normal womanhood to
be,dedicated to the good of human society and the glory of God
is tho one great aim and purpose of Queens College."

a membership covering 471 acres
of’ dtìwberritì'J has finally been or-
ganized among growers’of North
and South Carolina and is now in
operation, states George Ross,
chief of the State Division of Mar
kets. The Division of Markets
will cooperate with the Associa
tion this year in givinc an inspec
tion service that will tend to sta
bilize the dewberry industry and
place it on a business-like basis..
Mr. Fi. P. Pierce’of Hamlet, N.

act as sales manager.
V. W. Lewis, livestock market
ing specialist, suggests that sòme
of the smaller towns might begin
at least five projects which would
help local farmers in disposing of
their surplus produce. He states
first, that a creami shipping sta
tion would serve as an outlet for
surplus milk and cream. Second
a meat curing room might be es
tablished in connection with the
local ice plant so that the farmer
could take dressed hogs and have
them cured any month in the
year. One wholesale ice manuf
acturer of Raleigh last year cured
700.000 pounds of meat from an
ice plant which he operates in
Georgia. Third, provision could
be made for storing eggs at a lo-
calj,ice plant in which the eggs
might either be bought from the
producers or stored cooperatively
by the farmers themselves, One
firm’ made five thousand dollars
profit on 1500 cases of eggs stored
in this way last year. Fourth, a
potato chip factory could be put
in to take care of tho home-grown
potatoes. Fifth, a creosoting
plant for preserving native tim
ber and making it valuable for
posts and other purposes could be
established, Mr; Lewis states
that any or all of these industries
might be established for the ben
efit of farmers in eastern Caro
lina,

READ Ж ENTERPRISE
Raleigh, Feb. 21.-The fee for
getting married as well as income
taxes, would be materiajly in
creased by the passage of the.re-
venue bill iutroducéd in the house
of representatives today. Bar
ber’s chairs would come in for
their share of- taxing; filling
stations would no longer be on
the free list as to state license
privileges, and all inheritance
taxes except those afleciing wid
ow? and children would bé in
creased;.;.:
Railroad companips tax^s to
the state, for .franchise privile
ges, would be doubled; telephone
companies would be required to
pay, 50 per cent more, also sleep
ing car and telegraph companies.
Taxes paid by power, wuPér and
gae companies would be put on a
basis of gross earnings, at a rate
of one- tenth of one percent, which
is said to be an increase of about
200 per coiit of the present rate
of taxation paid by" these indus
tries.
The revenue bill in its present
form, according to Chairman N.
A. Townsend, of the house finance
committee, who placed it before
the house today, would raise an
annual revenue of approximately
112,000,000. If thè appropria
tions bill should be written to
parallel the budget commisôion’s
report, it would call for $14.000,-
000 à year for state departments
and institutions. The appropria
tions bill is expected to be intro
duced next week. Then thé Цвк
of making the two fit will con
ront the législature arid be fought
out on the floors of thè two houses.
As presented to the hbuise for
ts'consideraltión, sittingas a com
mittee of the whole, the revenue
bill makes nò changes in the sche
dule of inheritance taxes as it af
fects widows and children,
Hówéver, as to collateral heirs
brothers and sisters-there is
a 25 per cent increase, and in
creases ranging from five to 100
per cent as to persons of no blood
dn, according to the amount in
volved, .
In schedule В the increases
range from 50 to 500 per cent.
For instance, lawyers would
bave to pay the state $26, instead
of $4 as at present. There is a
provision, however, re lie v in g
them of half this amount when
they do not make as much as
$1,000 a year.
The bill provides for a marriage
license fee of $5. The present
fee is $3, Filling stations would
be required to pay from $5 to $20.
Barber’s chairs would be taxed
$1 a year each.
The rate on individual incomes,
heretofore ranging from one per
cent to three per cent, would, un
der the terms of the new bill,
range from 11-4 per cent to five
percent.
As affecting corporations, there
would be a flat rate of four per
cent as compared with three now
charged.
Railroad franchise taxes would
be increased 100 per cent, while
that required of telephone com
panies, telegraph and sleeping
car companies would be increased
50 per cent.
Under the terms of the bill
water companies, power com
panies and gas companies would
be taxed in proportion to their
receipts, the rate being one-tenth
of one per cent. Mr. Townsend
expected that this form of taxa
tion would incur, substantially,
an increase of 200 per cent of the
present rate charged these indus
tries.
A'tax of $2 would be imposed
on all commercial judgements^
where the defendants pay the.
costs, and $2 on all original pror
cesses in civil cases in courts of ;
recoi'd. ' ..........
A plan is being devised to pro-;
vide for the taxing of contractors,
which would, it is indicated^
yield between $.300,000 and $400,-
000.

Dates Now Set For State
Faii
Raleigh I’eb. 23. -Tho.'ie vvh
Contemplate entering exbibits at
the various fairs to be held in
.North Carolina this fa'.I need to
keep in mind that piaaj for ¡iiow-
ing most of the exhibit material
should be made this spiinit, say
aifricultinul workers of the State
Collegeexteniiiun seri’ice. Making
exhibits at fairs gives both adver
tising value and cash returns.
The State Fair alone distrlbuttd
$10,191.75 in premium money to
residents of seventy-five counlie.'-
last year.
The management of the-Stati
Fair reports that the dates have
already been set for this year.
The week of October 12 has beei.
determined upon since tliis week
' follows immediately after the
Virginia Stale Fair and comes
immediately before the South Car
oling-state Fair. The North Caro
lina State Fair this year will be
more of a public institution than
ever before according to the re
organization plans lecently an-
hounced by the Fair management.
The Slate College of Agriculture,
. the Slate lieparlment of Agri-
. culture and the Executive Dep
artment of the State Government
will share-with the old AgricuU
tural Societg in the management
of the Fair in the future.
Ib the distribution of premium
money laRt year, Wake County
led by receiving $1,988; Catawba
camd B^cocd with $840^60; Bun-
cciiibe was third with $762; and
Graverfouith with $651.60. Some
Some of the other counties whose
citizens «on liberal amounts of
the premium money were Ala-
. roance, Forsyth, Guilford, Ruth
erford, Wilkes and Wayne. The
smallest amount won by any
c ounty went to Berlie where only
one dollar was distributed,
According to E. V. Walborn,
manager of the State Fair, the
; records show that the fair is truly
a itate-wide institution when
Beventy-five of the one hundred
counties shared in the premiun
money, and exhibits from other
countieB were also entered, but

Counties Are Enrolling
Ili Garden Contest
McLean Speaks Out
CWineton-Salem JournaD
Governor Mclean showed no
hesitancy in voicing in an oiRuiul
way the feeling and, indeed, of
all the Southern States in which
cotton is produced, toward the
avowed intention of Wisconsin
and other western dairying states
to place a tux often cents per
pound upon cotton seed oil pro
ducts. (Jottoh seed products arc
used in the manufacture of oleo
margarine, a food product that
competes with dairy butter. Oleo
margarine is not sold under false
pretenses. Legislation requires
manufacturers of this product to
lable it as such and not color it
or in any way indjcale that it is
butter. The wse of the pioduct
is not l.armful and consumers
who wish to use it should not be
forced to pay a high premium for
thé privilege.
It is well for the States that
are thinking of taxing cotton
seed products heavily to considei
how large a volume of their own
products is used in the South.
Were' the South to imitate ihit
taxing project, it would cer.ainly
work a hardship upon producera
of many commodities that are
produced in the Middle Western
States. This in wh'it Governo’
McL(;an is thiniiing alouf, T1 e
only ihiiig Ihi; t■ott^n proiudng
States could do if the Western
Stales pei.si.-t in their intentions
would ba to retaliate, as tho Gov
ernor says.
' The South has felt the heavy
hand of taxati.m on tobacco pro

has taxed tobacco again and a

T\jat is bad enough, but when
Raleigh, Feb, 23.—T w e 1 v e
counties have enrolled in the com
petition for the first prize of $100
offered to the county council of
club women which records great
est success in the home garden
contest conducted this year by
the horticultural and home de
monstration workers of the State
College extension division. The
contest opened February 1st and
enrollment will close on March
1st.
One reason why more farmers
do not have a good home garden
is that the average man growing
cotton and tobacco thinks he does
not have the time to plant and
cultivate vegetables. “This argu
ment is b ein g refuted,” says
Glenn G, Randall, extension horti
culturist for the State College of
Agriculture, “by other farmers
who find that thpre is both health
and protlt in a good year round
garden. These growers find that
when the garden is planted in
long rows, wide enough apart, it
may be cultivated with horse
labor. In this way, not much
time is taken to keep the garden
clean. They find, also, that one-
half acre devoted to a garden has
à money value equal to two and
a half acres of cotton, even where
the average yield is one bale of
cotton to the acre. These values
have been established by actual
experiments.
"The money value of the home
garden is of secordary importance
however, when compared with
its value in maintaining the health
of the family. It is now well
known that minerals and vita
mines are found in vegetables,
especially the leafy kinds. These
food constituents are necessary
to the health and development of
the human body. The home gar
den, therefore, helps to keep the
doctor aw ay. We are hoping that
before March 1st, several thou
sand otheir peot)le will have enroll
ed in the 8tate>wide garden con
test.” \

are Nash, Johhston, Cabarrus,

Cat’B Tail Cut Off Electric
Power
Knoxvill. Ia., Feb. 20—The
light and power service of four
Marion county cities was cut off
a big coal mine was forced to
shut down, and thousands of
electric washing machines, per
colators, toasters, stoves and
curling irons were rendered usè-
less for three hours as the result
of a curious cat's tail.
Not being satisfied with the
view from back fences, the old
cat climbed a telephone pole north
of Knoxville, While standing
with its forefeet on a copper wiw
carrying 44,000 volts, it ctireless-
ly moved its tail, which came in
contact with the gronnd wire.
Thomas’ nine lives went up in
smoke. The wire was melted by
the intense heat and the entire
transmission system of the Mar
ion Couutry Electric Copipany
was cut off.
While a repair crew worked
for three hours to fix the damage
the cities of Knoxville, Pleasant-
ville, Melcher, and Dalas were
without electric power and the
Consolidated Ir.dian-'i Coal Com
pany’s big mine was shut down.

If a cattleman sold a Steer
and they would let him weigh

THE RESPONSIBILITIES
OP CITIZENSHIP
JTheJiiatdot-preacbes-unsolfish
not be all or largely alt a nation
of law-breakers. If those who
sleep will but awake, the man
who, viol a-ijg^a-thQ-Eiffhtgerith
devotion to country, and practices
it every hour of his life. He be
lieves that right makes might,
and that no correct rule of human
conduct ever owed its origin or
existence in selfish or sotrdid per
sonal interest. He who lifts him
self above the fog of personal
promotion, advancement and ag
grandizement, and lives his life
in the clear blue air of devotion
to his country and its government,
ia n real' citizen; upon whose
shoulders must be borne the bur
dens of good government and in
whose mind must be solved, the
complex, and sometimes confus
ing questions which will deter
mine the goodor evil consequences
which coming generations will
enjoy or suffer.
We are prone to the mistake of
bemoaning the departure of patri
otic fervor. Better had we assert
the true condition into which the
twin evils of the influence of an
increasing foreign population and
the forgetfulness caused by im
mersion in commercial pursuits
have plunged us, and seek and
find if we can. and we can if we
will, the remedy,
Seek Tub Spirit of Oun
Patheijs
traveling' a lotie
We grieve because we can no
longer find the spirit the fathers
had. It is the loftier view and
the tauerone, that the same spirit
is yet here, sometimes sleeping,
but ready at the call of duty tp
av.’ake.. Sometimes contaminated
by tho million men or more who
live between .the, twQ, oceans, who
have no concern for our Constitu
tion, no repiiect for our laws, and
no revcrenco for the flag under
whose folds we have found pro
tection, and whose presence has
for more than ono hundred years
marked the outposts of manly
endeavor and the onward march
of a convincing and compelling
Christian civilization.
The original thirteen states had
their inspiration in tho high hope
of freedom arid independence.
Their problem was to attain, —
ours is to retain what they secur
ed for themselves and for us,—tho
first was,a battle, the seconda
contest, and true to historic ex
perience, tho contest i.s aa stub
born and of longer duration than
tho battle.
The responsibilities and duties
of citizenship, properly under
stood and effectively functioning
must be assumed both in public
and private life. In the first are
included our duty to the govern
ment and its laws. To sustain
and support it in time of peace,
aa in time of war; to recognise
that the same heroic courage is
needed to enter the lists of uP '
standing civic controversy, as is
demanded of the sànie and other
men who bare theirbreaats to the
storm of death which hovers over
theb^ttléfìeld. In many sections
of our country, we find not only
men who w ould destroy the
government itself, but many men
who make the specious claim that
those laws whose enactment they
did not advocate, and whose wis
dom they now question, are not
entitled to their ob-servance, No
country can long endure whose
people only respect those, laws
which they like and claim the
privilege of violating those which
they disapprove, and if those
who claim that privilege prevail,
but a short period can elapse until
no law on any subject will, com
mand the respect of any consider
able part of our citizenship.
Paraphrasing the words of that
ideal American, Abraham Lincoln
this country cannot continue half
law-enforcing and half law-break
ing. It will be essentially all one
or all the other. If all or largely
all the latter, the-in.stitutiòna of
our government are shattered, its
foundations underipined, its des
liny arrested, and this: the first
gre.it experiment ill a govern-
metit by^the peoplei w^
,piit ^,11^^ as a
Amendment will be as infainous
as the man who steals. The man
who is notin his heart loyal to his
country, will he known and es
teemed as the outcast and the
eper that ha is, and will be spurn
ed and barrd from social converse,
employment and association by
all honest men.
Our R esponsibilities
Our responsibility begins when
wo firmly resolve and keep the
resolution, to hold no communion
with -hose who are disloyal; when
we determine and live by the de
termination, to have no commerce
with those who live by Violating
our lav/8. Let me pause here to
say that the man who traffics with
the man who violates the Eigh
teenth Amendment is just a little
worse than the man who sells,
because the man .who sells takes
a chance at the penitentiary, and
the man who buys, takes none.
Our resposibility will end when
the disloyal man understands that
our country is no place for him,
and that there is no spot of ground
n all this broad land of oura so
foul that his foot is fit to tread it,
and whtn the law-breaker will
know that punishment a wift, sure
and severe is the certain result of
ills malefaction.
Let us know that our re.<(ponsi
bility does not end with casting a
ballot. No citizen is a patriot
unless he votes, and no voter
3 a patriot unless he votes for
goodmen, and no good man is
yet a patriot until he performs
his whole duty at the ballot box,
in jury room and at his own fire
side.
I have spoken of a man’s duties
and responsibilities in public life.
Those of private life ara no less
exacting. That those who come
after us—the children who now
prattle at our feet, may grow in
to better men than .we have been
that their devotion to our country
may be' more unselfish than ours
has been, that abetter generation
of men and women may follow
after U3. to s t r e n g t h e n our
government and adorn its future
history is our dream, our hope,
our inspiration.
Those words fittingly describe
the motives which prompt us to
deeds of good citizenship:
An (lid man
highway.
Came at evening, cold and gray.
To a chasm deep and wide:
The old man crossed in the twi
light dim, : \
The sullen stream held no ,fear
for him, '
But he turned when he reached
the other side.
And builded a bridge to span the
tide, ^ •
Old man,” cried a fellow pil
grim near,
'You are wastion yout' stength
with your building here build
ing hero,:
“You never again will pass this
way. .
■‘Your journey will end with the
ending day, • '
You have crossed the chasm
deep and wide,
Why build this bridge at evn-
tide?” ■ ‘ :
But the builder raised his old
gray head.
Good friend, in the, path I’have
come,” he said,
“There followeth after me today,
"A youth whose feet must pass
this way
“This stream which hath meant
naught to rne
“May to that fairhait-ed boy a
pitfall bo,
"He too, must cross in the twi
light dim,
“Good friend, I am building this
bridge for him.”

Bible declares.) ,Biut this bill was
defeated and we are left, forced

children to school and forced to

the Devij into pur children.

Book to awake and vote out such

our schools. Let us elect those
who will give relief from our un

Whir ls Teaching?
(Winiton-Snlem Journala
Dr. GhtM."'^ p^ 6f the
University>iof North Carolina, ia
taken to taiiic as being inconsistent
in opposing the Poole Evolution
bill on grounds of constitutional
guarantees of free speech while
he says that he does not "believe
for one minute that a teacher
should be tolerated in any public
institution who teaches or advo
cates such a doctrine.” Those
who complain seem to misunder
stand the whole philosophy of
teaching and of investigatión of
truth.
It would not be possible to study
the arguments for the existence
of God without at the same time
studying the arguments, if any,
for the pi)sition of the atheist.
The person taught'.must always
exercise his ability to weigh facts
and argumpnus and ardve at hiii
own beliefs. The little child ar
rives at his belief, that five and
fl.ve make ten by counting his fin
gers. Nobody could make him
believe that proposition if his fin-
irershid not verify it. All teach
ing is of the same process.
It is hard to M how anyone
could be made an atheist or a
theist against his will. A teacher
who would insist oh advocating a
proposition that five and five
make nine would be useless. ' A'

1,036 Patients Now
Living And iRTorking
Sanitorium, Feb. 28.—One
thousand, thirty-six former pati
ents now living and working is
the record of the North Carolina
Sanitorium for its patients dis
charged from the Sanitorium dur
ing the past ten years. There are
also 803 living and not working.
Eighty-nine per cent of all the
early stage cases treated in the
past ten years are living atic
working.
"Weclaim,” Dr. P. R. McCaih
Buperintendent of the North Caro
lina Sanitorium,' said, "to have
the most complete records of our
discharged cases of any sanitor-
iuni in the United States. We
have not completed, our survey
for 1924, but previous to Decem
ber 31,1923, we had lost track of
only fifty-six out of all the pat
ients discharged from the Sani-
toriuin,
"If we estimate the value of a
life at the low figure of $5,000,
these cases who have been re
stored to health and to useful
citizenship are worth more than
five million dollars to North Car
olina. Outside of their money
value, the patients > who have
gone out from the institution have
been a great health educatiqrtal
factor in the State, missionaries
carrying the gospel of early dia
gnosis and prevention of tuber
culosis to cities, villages and
farms throught the whole State.
Our ex-patients are instrumental
in discovering á large percentage
of the patients sent to us in the
curable stage. They have learn
ed the s.ymptoms of tuberculosis;
they know tho necessity of an
early diagnosis if a cure is to be
effected, and their own exper
ience has made them want to help
the other fellow.
A h a means of prevention the
value of the institution in these
discharged cases cannot be esti
mated. Not only has the life of
the person infected with the di
sease been saved, but many per
sons have been kept fi4>m the risk
of infection , and probable death
by removing the tuberculosis per
sons from among the healthy
citizens of the comniunity. Treat
ment by segregation removes the
risk of infection, and. knowledice
of how to prevent infection by
precautionary measures, lessens
this risk of infection to others
when they leave the institution.
"The extent to which the in
stitution has been successful in
the prevention of this great white
plague is shown by the steadily
decling death rate. Ten years
ago there were more than 5,000
yearly deaths from tuberculosis.
In 1923 thère were only 2,540,
Tubeculosis exacts its tell from
those in the? prime of lif¿ ! Is it
hot'worth while to save 25,000 of
óür most useful citizens every
year?”

Thereby Say To The AyerifiT® Democratic Voter,
“You Are Not Competent To Vote In The Selec
tion of Candidates to Run bh Your Party Ticket*’
■ The State wide primary law seems to be causing a few people
considerable concern .these days. There seem to be a small num
ber of would be political bosses who would like to get the state
wide primary out of the way and get the old convention system
in its place. That would enable jUÉit.a few well trained political
manipulators an opportunity to rule the party and dictate its
candidates. Who objects to the average democrat who helps the
party to win out in the regular election. Voting the same as the
big political, leader? Nobody but the few would be bosses whci
would substitute ring rule for the nile of the people.
Speaking of the state wide primary law, there is a bill pend
ing in the General Assembly at the time we write this (it maÿ be
passed upon'before this goes to press) which-provides that the
state wide primary law should be repealed. And,the bill seems to be
giving more concern than most folks thought it, would when intro
duced some weeks ago, for the Housè committee oh election laws,,
last week, reported the bill favorably. That moved the friends
of the primary to action. The Raleigh News and Observer com
ments as follows : . ,
“Some people have short memories.,
“Yesterday the House Committee on Elections decided to re
port favorably the bill to repeal the State primary law. The quiet
campaign for that measure succeeded in the conamittee. Can its
advocates turn back the clock and induce the General Assembly
to take the backward step of denying to all the voters the equal
voice in naming their public servants? No method has yet been
devised equal to the primary, conceding its faults and limitations,
to give direct expression to the will .of the people. The conven
tion syistem^erished by its inability to let the people rule. Its
evils—packing of delegations and payment of the expense of dele
gates and the like—'seem to ihavp been forgotten. The only argu
ment advanced for the abolition of the primary is that too much
money is spent.. That is true, but just as much will be spent in
any system as dong as-laws permit and public sentiment condones
it.
"Under the primary, the Democratic party has given all its
voters à chance to speak. The Republicans have refused to name
candidates in.a primary. They should be compelled to do so. How
ever, What has happened? Thé Democratic party has steadily
gained in vote, carrying more and more counties formerly, Repub:
licah and piling up larger and larger* majorities in Democratic
counties. ■ ' .“In three-fourths of theùcountie» in North Carolina the prl
mary is virtually the election ahd that is true of all candidates on
the State ticket. The bnce powerful Republican party has
dwindled and one cause is that its bosses stick to cohyentions and
refuse to use the pHmary. Inasmuch as ih North Carolina the
State primary is virtually the election, denial of voters'to ah equal
voice ih the pirimary is to deny them voice in naming their candi
dates- If the ' representative government idea must prevail in
nominations. Why not in elections ?
“No right of direct vote given to the people has ever been
surrendered by them. They know the primary gives to the
humblest member of the party, living in the most remote section,
the equal voice with the ablest man in the center. If that right
is taken from them, it will be regarded as a just deprivation of
their inherent right and privilege. ^
“This Legislature has no mandate from the peojjle to take
a backward step. ‘ '
“Let the people rule!”
There are two sides to most of the questions which come up.
Biit on, the question of whether or not we ought to do away with
the state wide primary in favor the old convention system,
there is only one side, unless we grant in the beginning, or con
cede the truth to be that the average voter in the great demo
cratic party Ifl not capable of voting intelligently. If we grant
that to be the case then thei'e are two sides and the manipulators
of thé Neal bill to repeal the primary law have some plauaable
argument. What do you think about it Mr. Average Democratic
Voter? ' '

Farmers expecting to plant pe

advises H. iM. Curran, farmfocesr
ter for the extension division of

"This applief especially to these

Mr. Curran, "for after that time
he percentage of loss will be'too
great for profitable for plahting.
Varieties such as the; Stuart and

'Fpr farmers and others; in
western North Ciarolina'vvho want
a few trees about the house, the
ndiàna variety ia recommended.
These trees are grown in Penn
sylvania and are especially suited
to the mountain section. The
toees grow just m large as the
southern varieties, the only dif
ference being the nuts are hot ro

asked, as she tapped on the glass
which covered that instrument.
"Yes,, dear,” I replied in a
sweet gentle voice.
■ "Don’ t they call this the dash
light?” she queried, fingering the
little nickle- plated illuminator,
' ‘Yes, honey, ” my words fiiated
but softly as before.
"Ahd is this the cut-out?” she
inquired.

train.

the ¿enter of the stage in' the
Gfineral Assembly, the past week
and no great amount oi progress
haa b'geii made in the enactment
of general legislation. 1 i; '
Two days’ were giyeh ; to Ihe

tion .outlawing the ,te ^
evolution 1 n State inBtitutions,
which had been inade ia .special
order for Tuesday night. The Щ
was displaced however, oh ■ ae
count df the crowded condition of
the hail and galleries of the House
which were jammed with :people
eager to hear the disciission. The
question for -debate waa: .VRe^
solved by. the House Repreeehta«

is injurious to the welfare of the

any officer or teacherin the State,
piaid wholly or in part by taxa
tion, to teach or permit to be
taught, as a fact, either Darwin

The raeolution catne up on ihe
House Calendar last Thursday
morning as unflnished busineM
and the "fire works” startedwith
out difflculty. The forces in f&vor
ot the resolution were directed by
Repiesentative Turlington of Ire«
dell; the opposition by Represen
tative Murphy, of Rowan;. Mr.
Turlingtph could see ho harm in
prohibiting the teaching of theo
ries as facts ahd paid his respects
to the heads of State institutions
who had appeared before the com
mittee in opposition to the resolu
tion. He was sustained in his
contentions by Messrs. Madison,
of Jackson, Hunter of Polk, Bras
well of Nash, Neal of Caswell.
Miss Alexander, of Mecklenburg
and Poole of Hoke, author of the
resolution, who pointed out the
dangers to young minds of theo
ries that are how being promul
gated through the camouflague of
science in the high schools and
colleges of the State. Mr. Tur
lington declared he had parted
company with Doctor Chase and
the University, under his manage
ment, after hearing the Doctor’d
speech before the Committee on
Education in opposition to the
resplution. Representative Madir
son sought to refute the . sugges
tion of the abridgement of freer
dpm oiF thought, freedom of the
press and^ freedom of speech,
Other proponents of the measure
'took much the same view.
RepresentativesErvin of Burke
Connor of Wilson, Everett of
Durham and Yelverton of Wayne,
cpncurred in the opinion of; Mr
Murphy in his appeal fpr religious
freedom and kindred influences.
Freedom for everything was the
slogan of the opposition. Besides,
they contended, that the legisla
ture is not the proper forum be
fore which to bring the issue and
the Hoiise finally concurred in
this view by voting to table the
resolution. Pollowihg is the vote
on the motion to table. ;Aye4;
