Vice President Coolidge is now unaer nre tor naving, while gov ernor of Massachusetts, advocated the purchase by the State of a sub way system in the city of Boston which has turned out to be a very unprofitable investment. The whole matter is under in vesication by a legislative commit tee, which has found that a num ber of members of the assembly were speculating in the stocks of a corporation that was effected by tneir votes, speculation has not been proven against Mr. Coolidge, and it is to be hoped, on account of tne high office which he now holds, if for no other reason, that this will not be done. Th nrcsrnf probe, however, seems to indicate, is an exchange suggests, that, so far as legislators go, the Bay State does not stand upon the lofty pinnacle of Puritan ical virtue where she is popularly supposed to dwell.

Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S OASTORI A 666 cures Chills and Fever, THE ROANOKE NEWS Thursday, June 9, 1921. LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. Mr. Pierce Johnson spent week end in Oxford. Life for some is a fat grunt for others a lean squeal. It's usually the busy man who does things on lime. Miss Margaret Garlick is visit ing friends in Kinston. Mr. B. G. Rodwell spent the week end in Warrenton. Miss Susie Parker has returned home from Rocky Mount. Miss Virginia Owen is visiting relatives in Rocky Mount. Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Owen spent Sunday in Rocky Mount. Judge J. M. Mullen, of Peters burg, was in town Sunday. Flattery often wins out where truth wouldn't get a look in. Miss Virginia Bishop spent sev eral days in Raleigh, last week. Miss Marion Jay, of Miami, Fla., is visiting Miss Mary Anderson. Mr. Louis Daniel has returned home from N. C. State College. Mr. James Johnson has returned home from N. C. State College. What some people live on isn't half as distressing as why they live on. Miss Elizabeth Clark has re turned home from Converse Col lege. Mrs. Pierce Johnson and little daughter are visiting relatives in Oxford. Mr. Robert Musgrove has re turned home from N. C. State College. Mr. William Johnston has re turned home from N. C. State College. Misses Mary Pierce and Anna Shaw visited friends in Littleton last week. Mr. Jack Vaughan has returned home from Fork Union Military Academy. Misses Louise Hayward and Annie Rowe House spent Sunday in Warrenton. Miss Mary Norman Harris spen the week end with relatives in Rocky Mount. For quick results it's better for a girl to be popular with only one man at a time. Miss Mary Anderson has re turned home from Southern Col lege, Petersburg. Mrs. V. A. Sledge who has been visiting relatives in West Virginia, has returned home. Miss Margaret Pierce has re turned home from Woman's Col lege, Lynchburg, Va. It seems almost impossible for editors and owners of umbrellas lay up for a rainy day. Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Allen at tended the Fork Union Academy commencement last week. what word will we use to de scribe the nagging wife since horses are going out of style? Miss Eleanor Barr who has been visiting mends in town, has re turned to her home in Kinston It causes some people a heap of worry because so many of their expected troubles never happen. A woman might be willing to try to live on love, but a man does not love her who would let her try it. Mrs. E. L. Stephenson, of Rocky Mount, visited her parents, Mr. and Mrs. S. Trueblood last week. Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Edwards spent the week end'with Mr. and Mrs. Winfield Crew, near Pleasant Hill. It's sometimes laughable how person will study the outside of the envelope to try to guess what's inside. Don't growl about the things that don't go right but don't be satisfied with something that can be done better. There should be some method uc vised 'or conserving th: energy wasted by some people in keeping away from work. There are some people in the world who know more than they think 'they know. But they are few and far between. Rev. L. D. Hayman is attending commencement exercises at Trini ty College, this week, and also the summer school for preachers. After paying the bills for his son': graduation, the "old man" would not write as optimistic a graduation address as he did when a kid. Persons holding rummage sales or selling anything in the park will please see that no waste paper is left to blow around. MRS. iOA WlLKINS. 666 cures Bilious Fever. Miss Narcissa Daniel has re turned home from Richmond Col lege. Mr. Alex. Johnson has returned home from Fork Union Military Academy. Miss Elizabeth Vaughan has re turned home from Last Carolina Training School. A scientist says more married men than bachelors have heart (rouble. Sure. It was heart trou ble that caused them to be married. In the summer time the averaee white man envies the average ne gro, who can always find an ex cuse for not working when he wants to loaf. When married people begin pick ing fruit from under some other vine and fig tree than their own, the devil puts a couple extra stro kers on the job. Prayers are most often answered after you have given up wailing for the Lord to wait on you and have taken pick and shovel and gone out after what you want. If the old man who induces a girl to marry him for his money had always shown as poor judg ment in his investments, he would not have accumulated enough wealth to have induced the girl to have married him. WILL ERECT RESIDENCE. Mrs. B. H. Wear has purchased a building lot on 6ih street, we learn, and will in a short time commence the erection ol a five room cottage. BRIDAL SUPERSTITION. According to old belief it is an omen of good luck a long and happy married life for a bride to slip as she passes up the aisle on her way to the altar. HANDKERCHIEF SHOWER. Miss Mary Lily Blalock enter tained last Tuesday afternoon in honor of Miss Frances Johnston, bride-elect. The attendance was quite large and a most enjoyable afternoon was spent. Delicious refreshments were served. SUPERIOR COURT. Superior court is in session at Halifax this week, Judge Cranmer, presiding. There are a great many whiskey cases on the docket. There are also fifteen divorce cases to be disposed of. The March term ot this court had nineteen divorce cases on the docket. DOINfl THINOS. God made us to do things, and there is no tonic like that which comes from doing things worth while. A clear conscience and a clean life are far more to be de sired than money. Real happi ness without the achievement of some aim is unthinkable. DON'T FORQET IT. When the next election rolls around, please remember that the present members of the Corpora tion Commission, placed there by your votes, do not represent the people, but the corporations, en tirely. Cut this out and paste it where it will be convenient to re fer to. SHOT IN THE HEAD. On Friday of last week while hunting rabbits on Vinson's island, Charlie Powelf, colored, shot at a rabbit at close range, hitting his brother, Sam Powell, in the head. Dr. D. B. Zollicoffer was called and ministered to the injured man. The wound was not thought to be dangerous. SCHOOL MATTERS. There seems to have been a mis take about the ages of two of the young ladies who were graduated this spring. Margaret Anthony, 17 years of age and Ethel Crew, 16 years of age. All pupils who were conditioned on any subject and who expect to do any studying this summer will please see me before Friday of thia week. W. B. Edwards. A TREAT IN STORE! On next Sunday morning at 1 1 oclock. Judge Cranmer who is now holding Superior court at Halifax, will conduct the services at the Methodist Episcopal Church in this place. Judge Cranmer is a fluent speaker and a must lovable Christian gentleman, and all those who hear him next Sunday will be greatly pleased. Every one cor dially Invited. WAS SUNDAY YOUR BITHDAY? People born on this day may not live long, but will achieve many great things and win much renown while they do. They will learn many trades and will make and spend much money, their chief trouble coming through their mar riage. They will be subject to headache, toothache and fever, and may be in danger from Are and plagues. They will be much beloved, will marry more than once and will be lucky in dealing with horses. Rub-My-Tism cures sores. WILL GRANDDAD EXPLAIN. M A little girl who had been beseig ing her grandfather with an end less succession of questions during the evening had still one more question to ask before she went to bed. "Granddad," she said, "were you in the ark?" "Why, no," he exclaimed smilingly. "Then," she said, regarding him with innocent wonder, "why were n't you drowned?" SHOWER FOR BRIDE-TO-BE. Cards have been received by friends in Weldon, which read as follows: Miss Ida Sledge At Home Wednesday, June 8, 1921 Guest of Honor Miss Margareite Frances Johnston. Miss Johnston will on June 22 be married to Mr. Earl James, of Elkin, N. C. THE TELEPHONE RATES. Referring io notices of the Tele phone Company of twenty-five per cent, increase in local rates, follow ing notoriously rotten service, should not be sanctioned by the patrons. It is knotvn that on pre vious rates the Telephone Compa nies made large earnings, and put ting into effect an increase equal ing twenty-live per cent, at a time when all business is suff -ring from long depression and continued de fines, it is not rignt mat the public service companies should sock the public for unprecedented increases. Every 'phone should imme diately be discontinued and remain so until the service can be Improved at fair prices. ENJOYABLE MEETINQ. On Wednesday, June I, 1921, Roanoke Ohapter, No. 81. Royal Arch Masons, held its regular con vocation in Masonic Hall, Weldon. The Chapter was opened at 4:30 P. M., and seven candidates were given the Past Master and Most Excellent Master De grees, after which all the members present, numbering forty, repaired to the New York Cafe, where an elegant supper was served to the members by Mr. Gus Pappas, the genial and hospitable owner of the Cafe. After all present had enjoy ed the supper and the hospitality of Mr. Pappas, they again return ed to the lodge hall and the Royal Arch Degree was conferred upon the following candidates: From Weldon John B. Sledge, Dr. H. Grady Lassiter. From Littleton Garland Bost Daniel, Henry Anderson House, Wiley Frank Harvey, Frank Ver non Jones. Roanoke Chapter No. 81 has about eighty members and has many applications on the waiting list yet to be initiated. Dr. Job Taylor, the High Priest, is plan ning a series of educational lectures for the Chapter next fall and those who have heard him lecture know they have a treat in store when the Chapter resumes work next fall, after the hot summer months have passed, They are looking forward with pleasure to the time when these lectures will be given. YOUR HOME TOWN. AND YOU. The Kiwanis Clubs, of which there are a good many in the coun try now, have as their motto: "A town that is good enough to live in is good enough to boost." This is a good motto for anybody to use, and as there is no copy right on it we might all adopt it with profit to ourselves and for the general good. And why should not a man speak well of a town in which he lives? If he cannot speak well of it, why should he live in it? There is a bird that befouls its own nest, but it is the lowest of all the feathered tribes. It is held in abhorrence by all other birds that fly. And most men, even if they try to conceal the fact, despise the man who knocks his horn town. They know that the real trouble is not so much with the town as with the man himself. Boosting your town may not make your neighbors boost you, but it will at any rate keep them from knocking you. And when your neighbors get down on you, you had just as well move. 666 cures a Cold quickly. Administratrix's Notice. Hiving thia day qualified m adminia. tratrix of the eataU of Mra. II. A.
