Danbury, N. C. March 31, 1938. i ______— j Danger Of Holding Office Too Long—Also i Hazard of Not Holding Long Enough. 1 An (incumbent's value to the body politic ( should be measured by the yardstick of his ser vice, rather than his tenure. , Sometimes one hears it said: "He has been in . long- enough, he should get out and let some body else in." , This philosophy is based on the spoils sys- . tern, and is morally wrong. Its conception is ' that the emolument of office to the holder is ( what is important, without regarding" the service being rendered to the public. , •' A gveat Corporation employs an executive at a big salary because he can make money for . it. ( Why discharge him because he has been in ' a long time if he have ability to continuously ' achieve success? The better way would be to . raise the executive's salary, and hold him. It is sometimes dangerous to swap horses , when crossing a stream. , Darrow Is Dead. Dead as Old Man Mose is Clarence Darrow, the great criminal lawyer. They buried him i the other day without a prayer or a Bible, in which he did not believe. A classical symphonv 1 written by a German pagan was played at the .grave, dismal music to accompany a soul going out. * i When Voltaire lay on his bier, his false teeth £ flew out and rattled on the floor. It was due to c some laxity of the muscles in dissolution. J It left the old man grinning hideously. Wheft 1 Darrow was in his casket, thousands fl viewed him without a smile or a tear. Viewed 1 him with a cold curiosity, with a wondering ad- s miration. 1 ii We need lawyers to protect us from lawyers. Darrow never lost a case. He knew all the v sinuous by-paths by which justice is defeated, t Jt was said in his favor that he never prosecut- c d, but always defended, and always stood for t the under dog. j ' This is a commendable trait, but how little perhaps does this Darrow trait atone for the 1 millions of faiths he destroyed—leaving nothing ! in their place but—nothing. 1 "Alas for him who never sees The stars shine through his cypress trees, Nor looks to see the breaking day Across the mournful marbles play— Who has not learned in hours of faith t The truth to sense and flesh unknown, That Life is Lord of Death And Love can never lose its own." ♦ Stewart Vindicated. The friends of Deputy Raymond Stewart of King congratulate him for his complete vindi cation in the recent Winston-Salem affair wherein the Stokes officer was framed by some Winston-Sakfln boot-leggers and crooked po licemen. Stewart's record is of an efficient and conscientious officer and at the same time that he was given a clean bill of health by the Twin City police system it also demonstrated its own efficiency and conscientiousness by firing the crooked officers. Our Weekly Questionnaire. When the Supreme Court this week decided in favor of the public utility holding company act, there were six judges voting for the ad ministration "bill. What judge voted against it, Mcßeynolds?—you guessed right. When the Senate this week passed the govern ment reorganization bill, a new deal measure, one of the North Carolina Senators voted for it, the others against it. Which one opposed it? [Bailey?—Yes. You are fine. THE DANBURY REPOBXZS SANDY RIDGE NEWS Continued from page 1.) music was fuxrtfehed by Miss Ruby Robertson and Mrs. John ] A. Dodson which wai greatly en joyed.
