SECOND PAGE THE WARREN RECORD TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 11. 'My Country Tim of Thee, Sweet f Liberty." THE WARREN RECORD Telephone Number 17. W. BRODIE JONES Editor & Manager HOWARD F. JONES Onwner & Contributing Editor Entered at the Post office at War renton, N. C, as second-class matter under Act of Congress, March 3, 1879. The test of a man's worth is the interest one manifests in the common good We would urge upon our representa tives the necessity of a law prohibit ing hunting in the snow. Such is nec essary and such is just. Public opinion favors it. Now is the time to go forward in every line of constructive betterment. The problem of relocation of Ameri can sons, who have faced the Hun, in profitable employment demands con sideration. Civic improvement is urg ed as the means. THE LITTLE THINGS He never picks up his clothes, often he leaves the door ajar, he is never on time for an appointment. In youth an air of tolerance allows this, but at. time goes on such a man drops from the sphere of things worth while to the atmosphere of the inconsequential. We don't hear his name as often as previously. He has become a victim of carelessness and no more is his council sought, or his - company ap preciated. The little things of life are but the stairway to greater things in Time's immortal march. Some one has to do the things left undone by anyone. How much happier, how much better, yea, how much noblier would the world be if everyone would look to the little things. Resolve to do so, and a pros perous and happy life will be the re sult. It is the better way. WHOLE TIME GAME WARDEN The abolition of the Game Commis sion with the dog tax leaves vacant the position of game-warden. The new law allowing the hunting of squirrel and rabbit upon one's prem premises at any time of the year and requiring a permit to hunt upon any one's land will be subject to whole sale abuse unless guarded against by an officer of the law. Further, the State Legislature is to pass a State wide Dog Control Law requiring the listing of the dog with other property in the usual manner. We feel than an officer should be appointed to enforce the game laws and see that every dog is listed. It will be too much to ask the sheriff U, do it all. Perhaps, it would be wise to have the appointed officer a deputy of the sheriff with the other powers which accompany this, and let him be out among the folks at all times. Laws are no good unless enforced and the abuse of the game laws may become common unless guarded against. Pub lic money could be wisely expended for the common weal by creating such an officer. THE ROAD TO LOUISBURG It is hoped that the time is coming when every one surveys a proposi tion in the light of its good to his township, his county and his country. The policy of opposition to a needed improvement because that improve ment doesn't run around one's front steps, or camp in the front yard, is to be lamented. Such thought never gets far away from its mother Selfish reed and when it exists Progress stands about, as much chance as eel luloid with fire and brimstone. The road to Louisburg by way of Alert is needed. It will help the townships thru which it courses, it will help the county. Its cost will be bourne half by a Bankhead appropia tion, the other to be raised by the townships. The cost will not be ac cessive for the natural grade is good, the road will connect the county seats of Franklin and Warren and will shorten the distance to Raleigh. Perhaps it may mean a few more Lend pennies in taxes, but who objects when the common property thus as sured is worth dozens " of times J its ' cost ? . Can it be that those by whose doors the road doesn't run aren't will ing to help when the roads over which . they travel are paid for in part by their neighbors? Turn about, look at the proposition in a broad light, and may we have a bond issue, the needed co-operation and the road at an early date. Eventually, why not now ? Pershing Forgets Us Says H. Co. (Continued from First page) for France in his search of his lost Division. On landing he went straight to Mezieres, because, as he said, "If anybody is still on the job it will be the Second Batallion." He stopped his car before an old faded sign (Com pany H. 120th, Infantry) pacing up and down before the door was a shab by old gray-haired man with an old broken and worm eaten musket upen his shoulder. (He was a soldier of Company H.) on seeing the General approach he came to present arms. The General walked up to the old man and said "Can you tell me the where abouts of . the 30th Division." The old man said "No Compree. Parley Francaise." Burwell Drug Co. Reopens On 13th We call attention to the advt. of the Burwell Drug Company in this is sue. The firm resumes business after being closed since May 20th, 1918 The .following from the Warren Record of May 24th, 1918, may be of interest: "The Burwell Drug Company Closes. "Four stars are upon the Service Flag at the Burwell Drug Co., and under this array of patriotic employ ers the sign, 'Closing out, going to war.' "After two years or more of faith iul, competent, obliging service to the people of the County the Burwell Drug Company closes its doors to the public and Mr. W. A. Burwell, pro prietor, leaves Saturday for Camp Jz.ckson. . "The four stars are for: Mr. W A. Burwell, who has built up a good bus iness here and leaves many strong patrons and true friends with us; for merry, popular John Powell, who al ready is serving in Washington State; for Dr. Morton C. Miles, who was competent Prescription drugglist of the firm until recently when called to Camp Jackson; and for "Tip" Green, the colored man who worked at the store, and who is now at Camp Grant Illinois. "Though the firm has stopped work for the Burwell Drug Co., the indi viduals have gone to work for Uncle Sam, and are serving nobly in this great cause for the preservation of liberty." Mr. Miles is now serving in France. "Tip'.' Green is across too. Mr. Bur well and Mr. Powell have been honor ably discharged and Mr. Boyce, also recently discharged from service, will form the new force. The outlook for the business is bright. Mrs. Reavis Pass es to Great Beyond This excellent woman fell asleep at her home on the morning of the 16th cf Jan., 1919, and when she awoke it was in the full glory of the eternal morning. She had lived the Golden Rule "To do to others as you'd have them do to you" and she loved hVi neighbor as herself. She diedas she had lived, in the Faith, and for her there awaited a crown of life that fad eth not awawy. "Who seeks for heaven alone to save his oul, May keep the path, but will not reach the goal. While hewho walks in love may wander far, Yet God will bring him where the . blessed are." She had been an invalids for nearly six years, but was always cheerful and greeted everybody with a smile. She suffered much in that time but the last three days of her life she had not a pain but often said she was so tired and wanted to rest. Oh! what a blessed thought that she is now rest ing in the everlasting arms. Mrs. Reavis was born in Vance county. She was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. B. Best and the beloved wife of Mr. T. C. Reavis, of Warren county. She had been married for fifty-eight years, and was the mother j of ten children. Five went , on ahead of her to show her the way. She leaves to mourn their lost her devoted husband, two daughters, Mrs. W. G. Wilson and Mrs. F. B. Bowden, three sons, Don, E. F. and Arthur Reavis; two sisters one brother and - many friends. She was seventy-five years of age, was a charming woman, a sin cere Christian and a devoted wife and mother. In early life she became a Christian and joined Brown's Baptist church. She was a valued member and was a great church worker as long as she lived. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. J. P. Harris at her home and her body laid to rest in the family burying ground. There tender hands will scatter flowers and loving hearts keep watch. A good woman has gone from her home on earth to the place prepared for her by by our loving Heavenly Father. j One by one earth's ties are broken, j As We see our love decay, And the hopes so fondly cherished Brighten but to pass away. One by one our hopes grow brighter, As we near the shining shore, For we know across the river, -Wait the loved ones gone before. ONE WHO LOVED HER. Notice State of North Carolina. To A. S.
