The crucial moment has arrived and time al one can prove whether or not hazing in its various forms is a thing of the past. We believe in college authority of our state and that they are exercising iheir best efforts to suppress ihe various forms of brutality lhat have not been suppressed in aoany of the instututions of our jtate.

From time to time we iiave sailed att^tion to the importan ce of a hospital for our county Skot only as a blessing to human ity but as a financial investment, worthy of the most careful and prayerful consideration of every ■me of our citizens. An object &f charity in one phase that is so worthy of study and support lhat the humblest and most ??ealthv citizens of our county ijan lend their efforts. If you fan conceive of any act that ipould be more worthy of honor 3Bti praise than the erection of a joagnificent building modernly «%uipp?d for the care of the sick §mp]e of Alamance and other counties; Where a man with his larg’e fortunes might take his 3wn physician in an hour of sick- .aesa receive special treatment; Where the unfortunate might go their own will and be proper ly Kii^d for.

A few weeks ago a prominent New Yorker came to our town on business. He had been here before. He is a careful o^erver and has traveled much in Am- erica. He remarked among many things that our town need ed, above all other things com mission government. It seems that our Mayor is sincere and enthusiastic in his work, but his hands are tied by conflicting committees, un business like forms of town government so that he is almost helpless in the successful discharge of his duties. As far as the board is concerned as a board, they have done worse than nothing, we mean by this that they have whiled their time away on frivulous matters and have not grated with the great problems of town government as they are now confronting us, in a business like manner. For example, our water supply has been short for a number of years and no relief is in sight. The board has one view the commis sion another. The town is without proper school facilities. The Board of Education is trying' to devise plans for the necessary improve- ments but they are helpless be cause the board is supreme. The statue law of our town being daily violated with vfery little e\ndence of any eff^t to enforce it This is a reflection on some one; but present condi tions are such ,that the ' burden can not be properly placed. , No One feefe in th’elfeast embarrass^ these flagi^rit violations unless it ia the officers who have gaining authority to execute the law. The Mayor has wisely de vised a plan for the building of a City Hall, but so far he has received very little encourage ments and less support. These are a few items of the business of our town that should have at tention not only by the board of Aldermen but by every citizen.
