In hundreds of ln?$nces, *>y words

public press, the Dally News has
shown that without advertising there
is bo sure thing to success. It has
been demonstrated by plies of must 7
goods on dusty shelves by out-of-date

White I w'Hir Tiqflring the discus
sions jit Swan Quarter and going over
kerson, I was thinking: What will
the future be? Here are tens of thou
lands of aires "of "land absolutely
worthless now, except for" th?f tlm
ber. If this land is draiaed and
cleared, it will^ be worth $200 an
acre. Hyde* county. -has been. cabled
.the granary of "North Carolina. Then,
it will be one of the Important grain- 1
producing sections of the whole

| Yazoo Pclta of the Mississippi.
And the day is coming when these
swamp lands will. be; cleared. It will
not all b<* done'ln this decade or the
next, of, maybe, in this generation.
But the eyes of the people are tutored
to this section. ? The United States
Dejmrtmont of Agriculture has seen
the promise. pf ffastern North Caro
lina and -sent its experts- to inspect
the field and work with .the .people.
The State haK already, in helping , to
-butld- -the MattamuAkeet- railroad,
done more for Hyde fTJunty than it
hps ever done for Any other county.
The Intense interest manifested by
the people at Swan Quarter on Aug*

nnxl the people themselves are after

And is 'npt the promise of Hyde.
ajuL_ Beaufort counties pnly an in
stance of thfr-promise of all parts of
the State? By the drainage', of -the
swamp, lands of the east, hundreds
of thousands of acres of the most fer
tile land will be*, opened to agrltuK
atha'r floldi^of ^ah or^r^ n^"lth 1
etiual promise. ' In " the central and
western part of the State, enormous
!,water power is waiting to be ,detrel
op.ed."* In the 'northeastern counties,
those bordering on Virginia, peanut
factories, in the Piedmont section
and the .west, eottoq factories are to
be built. Everywhere- new. enter
prises are demarTd'lng men to push
them. ;
The promise of Hyde and Baau
f ore counties and fhesa other sections
of our'^Rtute should be a call to the
boys of* 'North Carolina to stay at
home. The last "Federal census
showed that people were- leaving
Xhe Stat.R tn pvprv nnc that ramp
from elsewhere to mak?-thelr homes
with us. Who's Who in America, a
book containing sketches of the most
iiriimlnpnt m??tt criijptry. whows i
, that three men of note born. In. North.}
Carolina, have left the State to every
man of prominence born elsewhere
who has moved to North Carolina.
_Xhis shows the drain that our State
ha? -been suffering for generations. .
i The time may have been when? thej
young man did bare to "leave. the
State in order -to make, the moat ofi
himself- But it Is. not so now. Nor*
matter what field of endeavor he
1 wotrld enter .^whether agriculture or
manufacture br a profession, North
I Carolina^ J a. offering .opportuni^Us.
! And by opportunities, I mean a
chance to groWj_ I know that the
fees and salaries tn this tltate are not
as large now as 7-they are in some
other States, but there is a larger
field for growth and development
here than in most places.^ What the 1
young man tfbouid T>e looking lAt1 1b|
the chance to grow. The low lands

The peanut factories of my section
liave not yet been built; the oppor

business enterprises cause people to
congregate, there-te-the need- for the
professional man ? the mtftlster. the
school teacher, the lawyer. Where
mnch is to be done, thercmuch can
be done. It will take a great deal
of energy, brain, and capital to de
