I w DOG'S DAYS
If it is true that every dog
I will have his day then ChesterP
field county dogs have had
I theirs.
L The authorities are determ^
ineil to see that the dogs of the
^^^Chesterfield High School Dis^H^^rict
pay their taxes and thus
J^^^kear their share in the local
^^^Hducational expensesThe
town, ostensibly for proJ^^^ftection
against hydrophobia, has
j^^Vdecreed th-atall dogs within its
limits shall be muzzled.
These regulations may seem a
hardship to some dog owuers,
IH but there is much to be said in
their favor. The tax is only 50
M cents and it would seem that a
p dog that is not worth a 50 cent
I tax is hardly worth keeping
and sllOlllH V>r? rrr>ftr>n i-lrl ?f
?? w*1}he
tax goes entirely for educaB
tiopal purposes and should
V therefore be gladly paid.
The town is well within its
^ rights to compel the muzzling of
W all dogs within its limits. This
' is a precautionary measure that
is being insisted upon by all
communities that are awake to
the dangers from this source.
These measures will greatly
I benefit the dogs in that owners
I will strive to improve the breed
of dogs that will cost them in
trouble and money.

The St. .Louis Republic approves
most heartily of President
Wilson's policy of calm deliberation
in the matter of the
German negotiations. When a
school boy we learned a motto
?Festina lente ? Make haste
slowly. It is a good motto under
any circumstances, particularly
when dealing with a cricis
like that confronting our country.
Speaking of the President
Jin this connection tlio St. Louis
paper says: I1 He is not a man
of impulses; ho \s a man of judicial
poise, using all his energy,
when once he has decided on his
course. The hours that are now
passing without voice or word
from Washington [are to the
American people so many added
assurances that when the word
or act comes it will be that, not
of an individual, but of the natiou

You can make a little truth go
a long ways by stretching it.
Lots of excuses are not worth
the trouble if takes to make
them.
Many a woman is shy on birthdays
who isu't really behind the
times.
Dixie.
The following is from the pen
of Dr. Frank Crane, the brilliant
editorial writer for the New
York (Jlobe:
"Dixie" is the best liked tune
in the United States. Audiences
that remain apathetic through
infinite rag-time and sentimental
airs will applaud when the
band plays the southern classic.
It doesn't seem to make any
difference whether people are
from Dixie land or not. Northerners,
New Knglanders, West
emers somehow seem to warm
lip us responsively as ono bred
in old Kentucky when the lively
strains of tfitf inimitable melody
begin.
r-J- -*
When it comes to striking the
bull's-eye of sentiment''Annie
1 Laurie," the "bast lioseof Summer,"
and even "Home Sweet
Home" and "The Star-Spangled
Banner" are distinctly outelassi
ed. "Dixie" is hors coneours?
i meaning the others are "not in
; it,"
i Slavery is ge ne. The South>
em aristocracy is no longer domi>
nant. States' rights have paled.
; But tiie one song of the south has
triumphed over all that the
north could do In the way of
, music.
It is as unreasonable as woman,
, and as irresistible. As the suth.
ern girl has a charm of her own,
, knocks all logical canons of beau,
ty into a cocked hat, and with
her lanmiid smile wnrts h?vr?n
, with ice-bound hearts of north,
em men, so this ama/.ing tune
lias done for us all.
The old south lias gone, hut it
, had a certain beauty that "the
world does not willingly let die." !
Its high spirit of chivalry, its
keen sense of honor, its esteem
of women, its passonate love of
home, its vivid loyalty to its
convictions, these are fine flavors
in the garden of human feeling.
We pay unconscious tribute to
them wnen we applaud "Dixie."
Why is "Dixie" the best
American tune? Why do you
like Sue instead of Jane? Why
do you liko ham and not mutton?
The dictates of taste are inscrutable.
We like "Dixie" because we
like it.
It is original; there was never
| a tune like it. It is not, like
i the llood of comic opera melodies,
a weak varation of things else,
nor a crazy-qullt of recollected
scraps. God sent it straight in
to tho heart of the composer.
Such a song is made once a century
It is lively. There is sunsfiine
in it, and laughter, the tinkling
of baoios, the pat-juba of clapping
hands. There is jov in it,
cosmic, elemental joy of life.
There is home in it, and love ,
and loyalty, and the glee of "our
foil s."
And it is human. It grips the
heart. It gets into the feet. It
stands the test of tunes, for you I
want to keep whistling it, and it
makes you twitch to dance.
When it is played it seems to <
say: "Why can't everybody just '
be happy."
> For the pdvpo* onmlWtfF
ed impetus to thL live stoclrlSl \
dustry in Laurens county, the
bankers of Laurens held a meetrecentlv
and unacitrmusly agreed
to give support, financially and
otherwise, as is consistent with I
good business policy and within j
their reasonable ability toanl.
Patrons of the various banking
institutions and the farmers generally
will be urged to devote
more attention to live stock raising,
especially cattle and hogs. '
It was pointed out in the,discus- \
sion of this important subject *
that there are thousands of acres (
of undeveloped land which should j
be converted into pastures and *
that grazing is good in this sec- \
for six or eight months in the (
year. Encouragement will also
be given toward the planting of <
clovers, vetch and other cover \
crops; the sowing of increased i
acreage to small grain, all of |
which leads to the economic pro- '
duction of live stock and the ul- \
timate production of the staple (
crop of that section. J
An Enterprising Colony j
The little colony of Waldensi- '
ans, at Yaldese, Rurke County, '
North Carolina, is attracting
Nation-wide attentionsby its enterprise,
industry and adaptability.
Records at the Department of
Commerce show that several
Waldensians are now erecting a
factory to make macaroni, vermicelli,
spaghetti and noodles.
That will be a new industry for
that portion of North Carolina.
The Waldensians will make their
own Hour from home-grown
wheat.
The Waldensians are proving
themselves very valuable citizens.
They make good wine, 1
tine fruit and excellent knit
goods. The Department of Commerce
is watching their elFurts
j with keen interest. Recently a
special agent has been down to
look over their plants.
Three or four commercial
cheese factories and one macaroni
factory since the war started
is not bad for western North
Carolina.
