JA&1ES L MAYO Pbofhietok CARL GOERCn Editor WASHINGTON, N(.:JtTIl CAROLINA, NOV. 3 VOiC. - " The general sentiment expressed at the Belbaven fair yesterday waa : "Aurora will have to go some to beat this*" And Aurora WILL have to go some! The Belhavvn fair was a wonder. It showed what a progressive people eon do when !he\ get- started. It took a lot of work to get up an exhibit like that but those who gave theii time and labor to it, do not regret the efforts spent. It was a fair of whieh any community might well feel proud and by next year the citizens of that section promise something that will e: I ipse all past fairs ever held in this county. COMMUNITY LOYALTY. Have you ever stopped to consider the fact that loyalty to com munity interests is the highest type of patriotism? Show us the man who is loyal and true to every interest of his own community and wo will show you in that same individual a man in whom his coun try can repose absolute confidence in any emergency that calls for his allegiance. On the other hand, the man who is careless and unconcerned for the interests of his community is more than apt to display the same spirit of indifference toward his government or his state should any serious danger threaten either. One of the most commendable traits of the old Scotch highlandora was their lovahy to their own clan. (i??od ?-r bad, right or wrong, the elan had their tir-t allegiance. The life and services of each member were always cheerfully placed at the disposal of the clan. Try to imagine an entire state composed of innnerable communi ties welded and cemented into a svmmetriral whole, each striving to excel the others, but each, from its own local loyalty, developing a broader and deeper loyalty (hat reaches out and embraces the whole. I* topi a, you say { Hv no means. Merely what could and would be the result if we could only be brought to see that w ?? owe allegiance to our own people, but that the prosperity of others is in no wise a detriment to u>. but rather a help; that if each community would develop itself to the utmost ? physically, mentally and morally ? none would need to be envious of others, neither would any need do aught to detract from another's interests. Let us develop community loyalty to the fe.ll ? the highest possible form of patriotism. THE HOY. Oil THE IIOO. For some week- now farmers all over t he states and counties haw been llotking to the local fairs, some t? exhibit to the public the re sult* of their efforts and others to sec and observe and profit by the Jesuit- achieved l?y their fellows. Among the many attractions to Ik* seen at these fairs is the inevi table big fat hog. His h.irship usually tips the beam around one thousand pounds, and we stand and marvel at the labor and paiienee it must have required to develop such swinish perfection. Then if we are thinking men our thought* will probably pa-* on to wonder if the owner of this marvel has * us of his own. and as to how great an effort he is making to develop tin m t.> the highest type of which they are capable of attaining. The hog's owner has been care ful to eliminate from its progenitor? all that u uld tend to Take ir m its full and complete development. Has he lx*cn just a- careful t > weed out of his own life habits and traits of character that would militate against the development of his -on; Often we have seen a b y f.ucc??cd in life despite the shortcomings of a derelirt father, and we have contented oinvlve- with the simple remark that the boy is a great improvement on the father. The trilh ii 1 e is weak and paltry." Little do we know of the fight the boy has waged in orderMo rise above hi- surroun lings and overcome Ins ban Environment is miirhty and powerful for piod < r evil. The great est blessing a bov can have is parents who can point nnd guide hirti towaid higher things ? higher heights even than th.se to which they have attained. 1 At the risk of seeming to preach we wi-lt to say to the fathers of this section that when you look upon the big hog von have seen tho ultimate. Nothing further is obtainable unless, p ssihlv, it l*? a lit tle more of the same porcine perfection. 1 5nt when you look upon your small son. how little yr?u can see of the limitless possibilities for good and ill that lie in rhat small mind and In art. and hew your ear" ef him i- ff-dng to mould his life into almost whatever y ?ii may will to make ir !
