4 THE WAHREN RECORD TUESDAY, JANUARY 2l SECOND PAGE "4 "My Country Tb of Thee, Swttl Lnd f Liberty." . THE WARREN RECORD Telephone Number 17. W. BRODIE JONES . . Editor & Mgr. T J. TAYLOR. . .Contributing Editor HOWARD P. JONES . . . .Owner & Contributing Editor Entered at the Post office at War renton, N. C, as second-class matter under Act of Congress, March 3. 1879. The High Price Cat won't come down from the fence 'cause the Dogs of War ain't retreated far enough yet. Baseball is pre-eminently an Amer ican game President Wilson is even organizing a Big League. could make this approach one of pride. Now that the war activities are not as engaging as before, it is urg ed that we do not returntolivesof in activity as to public service, but that we devote the energies to the com mon welfare. There is work in War renton for a Civic. League, and this we . should have. But Civic League or no, the main artery of travel to Warrenton should not curl .around a rubbish pile. r"'' ."5 2 ." rt 2 5 Z 2 "5 ' "VK S ' LOVE IS ALL THANKSGIVING (By Jack W. Allen) We are pleased to note that Repre sentative Davis gave whiskey a shove toward the scrap heap by voting for the Constitutional amendment. The Senate vote was without a roll call. Good asphalt streets around the Court House, on Opera House and Dameron streets, and an extension of main street into South Warrenton would be an advantage. Why not con sider the proposition , now. Good streets help three things: the citizen, the visitor, the town. HOW ABOUT THE NEED Seven people were turned from the Hotel here the other night. Warren ton could not entertain its would-be guests. This happens often. The outlook is that building ma terial will not be any cheaper in five - years than today where it will be then is a matter of conjecture. There can be no advantage in waiting long er. Warrenton needs a modern hotel, and if every intelligent citizen can see this need, why not construct one. A municipal hotel will pay as does the electric lights, the ice plant and every town owned enterprise. .v Why not now. The ichight of the . grip paints our progress lets enter tain them royally here. THE CALL FROM ARMENIA It is gratifying to learn from many sources that contributions were taken for the Armenians and Syrans last Sunday. This was the Armenian Christmas, and particularly apprecia tive is America's answer to the call for bread and raiment for these peo ple. There are many languages, but the cry of hunger is but of one ton gue America is God's great store house, and we as trustees cannot fail to heed the call. If this comes under the eye of one who has not donated remember to send a check to Cleveland H. Dodge, Treasurer, Room 190, No 1, Madison Avenue, New York City. The call is to save four million from starvation. Can anyone bathed in plenty, sur rounded with enough to satisfy every need, fail to heed the call ? INFLUENZA OUT AGAIN The reports from all sources are that the Flu is raging. The doctors are kept busy and the disease is not under control. The Warrenton High School was forced to take a recess for two weeks yesterday; other schools are affected. Under the conditions it would seem wise that the Board of Health im mediately convene and consider a County-wide school closing for the term. It is of utmost importance for every precautionary measure to be taken, and in this connection the pre vious order of the Board quarantin ing the disease should have the sup port of the public. WHY NOT BEAUTIFY The main road- leading into War renton, .that from Norlina, passes at the Horse Branch one of the town's rubbish piles, and of all the roads leading here this is the most repul sive to the eye. The natural setting is conducive to beauty, a little time and intelligent direction of labor I care not for the dark clouds, the ram and its roaring, For somewhere thru the dark clouds the sun is glowing And the bright golden days are just beyond the pitter patter; So what do all the dark clouds and rain matter? The leaves of the giant oak have ceas ed their falling, And somewhere the mocking bird will soon be calling; The roses have faded and gone, but I know the bush is living, Then why should I care, for life is all thanksgiving. Soon the violet will appear with a green leaf for its shelter, And children will be playing joyful ly helter-skelter, And at night tucked in bed they will dare the weather: Ah, what are dark clouds and rain when we are all together? As we play hide and catch, the rain without is falling, Tho' the leaves lay brown and sear I know the tree is living And love is calling, calling, and love is all Thanksgiving. JACK W. ALLEN. 9 of Action Needed to Pass The Dog Law Concerted action is badly needed by farmers of the State if they are to ave the necessary legislation which will control he worthless dog, and further the production of sheep, poul try and swine within the State. As is well known, the roaming, worthless dog is rlagely responsible for the pread of such diseases among hogs as cholera, - which ;-aehi year causes -the oss of thousands of dollars worth of ork in the State, and of rabies whicn ach year takes a heavy toll in the ivilian population of the State. In addition to this, it is practically impossible for best returns to be had rom the raising of turkeys and chick- ens, as well as sheep and some wild game. To put this matter squarely up to ( he Legislature, Mr. R. W. Scott, Chairman of the Dog Control Commit- ee, is asking that each person inter ested in the passage of such a law tc take the first opportunity of writing to their representative, or the Statt Senator, bringing to his attention the necessity for the law. According to Mr. R. S. Curtis of the Animal Industry Division, North Car olina Extension Service, the passage of this dog control law would advance livestock production in the State to a greater extent than practically any other single movement. For this reason, Mr. Curtis also requests that interested citizens lend their support to the movement and write their repre sentatives in the General Assembly. 88 No Worms in a Healthy Child All children troubled with worms have an un healthy color, which indicates poor blood, and as a rule, there Is more or less stomach disturbance. GROVE'S TASTELESS chill TONIC given regularly for two or three weeks will enrich the blood, im prove the digestion, and act as a General Strength ening Tonic to the whole system. Nature will then throw off or dispel the worms, and the Child will be n ETfect health. Pleasant to take. 60c per bottle. Watch your label. ! 1 REPORT OF CONDITION OF Henderson, B3. C.
