Mechanicians employed in automo bile repair shops add to the gayety of their existence by remarking w'hen a truck rolls up equipped with, solid rubber tires, that one of those tires needs a little more air. The chauffeur of the truck is expected to laugh heartily at this joke, after wlaich he is at liberty to borrow a “chew” or •‘the making's.” % COUNT TOGO ■ ■ T3:]0.

Governor Kitchin wTites in a recent letter to the headquarters of the Na tional Irrigation Congress, that he has appointed an advisory committee with which the officers of the irrigation con gress can co-operate in making its com ing meeting here, December oth to 0th, of the greatest benefit to North Carolina. Members of the advisory committee appointed by the governor are; W. S. Lee, Charlotte. J. J. Furlong, WiIniingto.n. • Frank Hewitt, Asheville. A. B. Lukens, Moyock. Frank Wood, Edeatan. S. S. Mann, Swan Quarter. O. L, Clark, Clarktown. J. A. Wellons, Smith-field. R. P. Richardson. Reidsville. W. D. Mills, Statesville. “Save the forests, store the floods, reclaim the deserts, make homes on the land,” is the motto of the Nation al Irrigation Congress, and clearly sets forth its objectOf particular inter est is the consideration the congress will give at this seesio nto the reclama tion of drainage. This year its sessions are held simul taneously with the United States Land ajid Irrigation Expos-ition and the In ternational Live Stock shovr. These Uiree big events offer unusual oppor tunities for communities to make knowh their advantages to hundreds of ’housands of prospective farmers and settlers, and that interested states might make the most of these op- I'jortunities the s-uggestion was made that their governors appoint advisory committees.

INCONSISTENCY OF THE GEORGIA PROHIBITIONISTS Atlanta, Aug. 7.—Atlantians are still marv'elling over the inconsistency of providing 5,000 bottles of beer and only a few paltry gallons of buttermilk for a Georgia legislature and then expect ing it to vote for prohibition. Wags are suggesting at the capital that Macon’s generous supply of the ajnber joy was dictated after all not by hospitality or with any hope of influencing the moving of the capitol to Macon, but solely to help the fight Joe Hill Hail of Bibb is waging against the Tippins bill. Certain it is that if everybody w'ho smacked his lips over near-beer in Macon last w'eek votes to deter every body else having the privilege of do ing likewise, the Tippins bill is doom ed. Yet they say a large majority of the legislators are in favor of the Tippins bill. And yet again they say a large majority of the legislators are in favor of near-beer for legislative consumption. It is an awfully mud dling thing to figure on. iii The Bond Ouestion, Fellow Citizens Is of vast moment,, but if you neglect your household; if you per mit Susan and innocent little Dorothy, who meet “Daddy” with kisses and caresses, the elixir of life, if you allow' these sources of your joy and happiness to suffer, to shed one unnecessary tear, to live in daily fear of your sickness or death w'hereby they would be thrown upon the cold charity of the world; then it makes but littla difference to you whether we have water, streets, school houses or auditorium. If you sit supinely by and fail to provide your com panion In life’s journey and your own flesh and blood with a home and a reasonable fund for the cloudy, and, perhaps, for the stormy days, then you’ll need an ice plant, a many ton machine at that, to cool your fevered brow on earth, and, when you reach your well-earned home below, you’ll need all the ice plants of earth together with all the fans which can be operated by all the energy of the Southern Power Co. to give you one moment’s ease.
