Mr. Editor:
Please spare me a small space In
the columns of your valuabe paper
for a few straggling remarks from
he distant north eastern section of
the county.

school matters as they have been.
Have we not sat still, folded our '
arms and abused Ion* enough..

earnest. The mothers and fathers
do not show the Interest that they
would sometimes from the fact that
they excuse themselves by saving
We have eachers employd to do our
work. The fact Is. none should he
satisfied until the very best results'
possible have been attained.
There Is one thing very noticeable
about some of our schools and this Is
that all teachers, pupils and parents
are stirring against the common good ;
of the community In Oder to accom-j
pllsh In the end what the world sees !
among them to be a personal grlev- j
ance, ultimately bringing about con_ ,
fusion which Is the unwise thing |
to do.
The board should be the backbone
of the school. It should be
composed of our best Informed, the
deepest thinkers and most progres- [
slve men, regardless of factional i
feelings. Don't be afraid to take j
action In matters of vital concern. |
. .Don't be afratd of making anybody
mad. Some people will stay mad
whether you bother them or not
They are perpetual knockers. It In
almost an unexousable calamity to
allow our children to grow up de- f
void of the higher e1<;ni?nt of know. |
ledge which our schools alone next i
to our homes, can give. No one
should be allowed to teach as a
pastime or to collect spending money
on which to dress. It Is to be deplored
that we lack co-operation In our
community and a better feeling
should exist. If for no other reason
It should be for the specific sympathy
that we manifest for St. Peter who
will be confronted at the gate with
such a tangle of factionalism that
his think pot will be overwhelmingly
puzzled as to how to admit all
factions
I am no school teacher but these
are some of the things that have
come directly under my observation
and I am satisfied should be remedied.

The refreshing rains continue to

the offensive but the enemy Is
lold'ng the stiff upper lip and no
loubt <n the near future he will be ;
epuised with very neavy loss.
With a few exceptions our community
Is fairly healthy.
Mr B. P. Snipes' little son, Roy,
is very sick. The unfortunate lit_
tie fellow has been carried by his
rather and Dr. Funderburk to a
Charlotte hospital whore, after a successful
operation for appendicitis,
tie is reported to be doing as well as
could be expected.
We have just heard that Mr. Gan
*on Funderburk's wife was very sick
but have no details.
Neertheless, wo should not be u?.
mindful of the rapid strides that our
efficient manager of the Tradesvllle
garage has of late been made. It
was the pleasure of the writer on an
early morn sometime since to join
a few friends on an eastern tour by
automobile across the country in
the direction of the great Atlantic
coast We had easy nailing until
we reached the slopes leading east
ward to Lynches river. At this
juncture, the hills became so steep
that the rear end of the heavy Cadillac
was running In front. At high
noon we reached the river After a
ship of a few hundred yards, the car
began its laborious struggle climbing
the declivity on the eastern side
of the stream where we found the
steeps so great that the headlight in
front of the faithful almost exhausted
and panting engine would shine
with much brilliancy Into the rear
end <rf the famous roadster, illuminating
It as the rising sun would
the eastern sky in the early morn of
a clear day.
It would have been hard for us to
have given the faintest Idea of our
destination as we were unable to
decide Just which way we were going,
whether we would ever reach
the top of the mighty mountain
again.
Though In all probability nature
had prepared for those who were to
participate In this occasion?plums
were in abundance on all sides which
to a keen-biting, pinching and almost
gluttonous appetite, when In
the meantime it was late and long
after the noon hour, was a glorious
recentlon to n belafod vnrtcr of tour.
1st. This being as It may. our thinking
faculties were much at ease from the
fact that we had Mr. Medium a* the
steering wheel with Job skinned a
mile, so far as patience Is concerned.
When to our chagrin and dismay
we found that the running works of
our machine had been strained to
such a degree pulling up grade that
the great engine absolutely refused
to pull going down grade, then I
thought Mr. Medium was go'ng to
pray.
When at this very moment a pedestrian
approached us remarking
that he would be pleased to trade
for the pmderous machine which at
this time seemed to be suffering
from the effects of a stroke of staHMHHUHHMHW'.
