THE FRANKLIN TIMES A. 9. JOUUMUU JMlUr Oh T?v H.M imuu l.o# ?ths ? .? iMtla M Foroifn Advertising Roprooentotivo THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION ntmd at the Port Office at Louis burg, N. G. u second class matter. It seems that the people of Louis turg have forgotten Shout the estab lishment of a canning factory. The hot wave that has been so evi dent tor about two weeks was broken Monday evening by the visitation of rain and hall storms. The defense in the Wyatt case at Raleigh, are making a serious error In blocking the immediate trial of this case. Their tactics are serving to bolld prejudice against their cause. Louisburg is to be congratulated upon having the South-Atlantic Lum ber Co., of Greensboro, establish a planing mill in our midst. This will add much to the needs of Louisburg in the way of a weekly pay roll. m The grand jury in Wake county has failed to find a true bill against the ice monopoly of the city of Raleigh. They might go still further and re ccmmend to the Legislature the repeal of the laws protecting the public against profiteering. Clarence Darrow a defense attorney in the Scopes "Monkey trial" has the distinction of opposing a motion that the Court sessions be opened with prayer. Surely he cant feel antago nistic to this method of respect fo- the God of the Universe. Judge Devin agrees wiin Judge Sin clair that flogging prisoners is illegal. These, gentlemen may be right But if they are the next Legislature had just as well do away with the prison system of punishment Without any means to make a prisoner work and with accommodations equal to hotel? certainly better than many of them ever had at home?there will be nol punishment left The official deficit of the States fi nances has been certified as $9,438, 631.61. A11 true North Carolinians ?will tip their hat to Governor McLean If he can succeed in breaking up such a system that leads so directly to bankruptcy. There is no use having the Legislature make appropriations If the officials are to disregard them and spend the States credit at 'vill. Its time to call a halt and we hope Gi vernor McLean will succeed. The Republican Executive Commit tee, which met In Louisburg Saturday, are to be commended in their decis ion to make no recommendations for a change in Postmaster at Louisburg umil December 1st. 1925. Postmaster W. R. Young is making an efficient of ficial and we know of no one in the republican party available who wcnld make a better official. It is to be con ctded that under the old rule that "to the victor belongs the spoils" the re publicans are entitled to the plum and will no doubt demand their rights. Now that the fall of the year Is get ting near and Louisburg expects to sell ?Ix million pounds of tobacco It would be well for the City Fathers to begin to solve the automobile parking prob lem in order that better accommoda tions for the tobacco laden wagons may be had. It is only natural that the farmer wUl go where he can get best accommodations. He would nat urally be peeved If he was crowded off the street by automobiles. We know this la quite a knotty problem and we therefore call the attention of the Board of Town Commissioners to the matter at this time, so they will have jjUme to solve It. The suggestion by some of our mer chants who would be financially ef fected, that all the stationary awnings In town be removed and that the side walks to cleared of all unsightly and *ther displays is a good one. The best advertising any town can get is the Impression made upon strangers, and as practically all of thc-business por tion of Louisburg Is In full view of the State Highway, upon which thousands of strangers travel It is easy to see lhat with the streets In their presort condition only unfavorable impres sions can be made upon visitors. Lets ell join hands in the move to make Bonisburg a prettier and cleaner town aS<I start writh removing the displays from the sidewalks, including the iron house on the Corner of Main and Nash street, and all stationery awrnlngsi This suggestion Is respectfully pained o? to the Lonisbnrg Klwanls Club agd Business Men's Association, as a matter worthy of their attention.

U. wishes to express his sincere appre ciation for the interest taken in the lessons we studied for the past two Sunday nights. It showed that some thing had been said or done by some one which had previously been leav ing off. Event part was given by the light one antl it only takes a little of your spare time to give It every time. Prayer has been practical by someone and it takes more prayer backed by seme real work to keep our B. Y. P. t. going Akk yourself, "What kind I of B. Y. P. 0. would we have if every member were JuH like me?", The Sunday School has dropped off turns and we know not why because the weather is nice for every one to come. He who stays away from church and Sunday school must be the looser but all of those who gc would be glad for the church to be filled every Sun day. People, come and bring our av erage up. It hurts your teacher, Supt. j and yopr pastor, but most of all it hurts your Heavenly Father who is at all times wanting your presence. The special mnslc given by Mrs. W. D.

I thinkjhe edi tor wlllallow me just enough apace to enumerate the past events among our people. t'. We have not been dead the reason you have not heard from us. We have been tilling the fertile soil of mother earth, and watching with thankful hearts the green and growing bank account 1 gue3S the banks of Louis burg and other towns are waiting, well let them wait, we're coming. The people of this section artf'great ly blessed with crops. Nearly every farmer has growing what he planted to make. We are human though, and we are not satisfied. It is one of the hardest things to do, to satisfy anyone. If we had a million dollars we gould want more. If we could exchange places with Mr. Henry Ford we flbuM want more. That's nature. If^wwfnev er wish to reach a higher geal what are we living for? As longitts we are climbing we should be content. ? Mr. Z. L. Cheaves Is recovering, but slowly, from the wounds that he re ceived in the automobile wreck. ? We hope he will soon be well and strong again. The wreck caused the work on his new house to stop for a short while. We hope he can soon get it complete. Mr. J. B. Wilder and son, B. R., have been very sick but are out again now. Mr. Willard Cheaves, of Richmond, Va., with his friend Miss Harris, mo tored home Sunday morning to see his parents and friends. We were glad to tee him, though it was only a short visit.
