if the personnel of the office

HOULD NOT TAMPER
VITH WHISKEY LAW
Warren county's Repreentative,
T. H. Aycock, left
esterday for Raleigh to atend
the special session of the
2gisiaiure called by the govrnor
to pass laws which will
ssure this state benefits
.nder the Social Securityl
ict. Representative Aycock
as assured us that he will
ot offer any bills before the
egular session begins in Janary
and stated that he was
nxious to go there, finish
he business for which the
pccial session was called,
,nd then return to his home
iere. We hope the other
Representatives and Senators
eel the same way about the
natter.
However, if any move is
nade at the special session
r the regular session to tamer
with the whiskey laws in
rder that the state may re-j
eive part of the revenue
rom the sale of alcoholic!
averages, we hope he will.

decs because the citizens of 1
that county feel that condi- i
tions would be improved and ,
because they desire additional i
revenue, it should move for
legislation which would per- j
mit the setup of A. B. C. i
stores, but we do not think '
the "dry" counties which do ]
not want legal whiskey have j
any right to endeavor to get '
part of the revenue, other 1
than the benefits which come }
to them at present through i
the sales tax on whiskey, ?
from the "wet" counties i
which have gone to the ex- t
I ense of holding elections to <
let the people decide on the
matter and then set up the r
stores. i
As long as it is legal for
certain counties to engage in ?
the sale of whiskey, we do ^
not think the state has any 1
more right to part of the
revenue than it would have i
to part of the proceeds from i
a community fair, or a pig | )
I t
sale, sponsored by o ne of the s
counties.
'State's Rights" used to
be the cry which rang out
from our forefathers when
the government committed
some act that appeared to be
unjust, and if the state continues
to try to hog every
source of revenue which becomes
available in the various
counties, we are going
to hear something of "Counties'
Rights."

to say that I heartily endorse her
opinion concerning the situation of j

Beware Coughs
from common colds
That Hang On
No matter how many medicines
you have tried for your cough, chest
cold or bronchial irritation, you can
get relief now with Creomulsion. g
Serious trouble may be brewing and. ?
you cannot afford to take a chance 5
with anything less than Creomul- 5
sion, which goes right to the seat I
of the trouble to aid nature to !
soothe and heal the inflamed mem- 2

is loosened and expelled. i
Even if other remedies have J
failed, don't be discouraged, your ?
druggist is authorized to guarantee I
Creomulsion and to refund your I
money if you are not satisfied with g
results from the very first bottle. ;

;ar parking on Main StreetI
think there should be no parkng
at all on Main Street by the
jwner or employer of any of the
jusiness firms, except when load- j
ng and unloading their goods. They
:an provide plenty of space in their
jack yard to park their cars, and
;he space in front of their place of
justness should be given to those
vho go to them to spend their
noney with them, and if they appreciate
their patronage they will
je willing to do this. Just think
)f the many people coming in from
i distance, many of them ladies,
laving to drive around several
jlocks several times and then finilly
having to park their car on the
jack street. Then after spending
;heir money with you, take their
jundles and walk several blocks
iown the back street to their car.
ifou are really losing trade to some
iegree on this account- I order
nany things from some mail order
louse for this reasonAnother
thing I'd like to see done
s to prohibt any congregating on
.idewalk; sometimes it is hard to
valk through the crowd without
jumping into some one and often
hat person is under the influence
)f liquor. I wish our town of War enton
would be what it could be.
: hope the lawmakers of the town
vill at least consider this situation

"Now, North Carolina no longer
is occupied in establishing an honest
and stable government. Above
all, she is no longer concerned with
that mystical and arithmetical
problem: 'What fraction of a Southerner
does it take to whip a Yankee'?"
North Carolina is concerned, however,
he said, with the "three-cornered,
cut-throat game," of tenant
farming and the "unhealthy and
miasmic spot" known as the mill
village with its "monotony, ugliness
and isolation.'*
"North Carolina has two assets,"
Polk said- "They are?land and
people." Give municipalities the
power to tax outdoor advertising, he
urged. Give the State power to tax
bill-boards by the square foot, the
proceeds to go into a fund for landscape
improvement about North
Carolina highways.
The $1,000 homestead exemption
amendment recently passed by voters
and federal loans for farmers
who want to buy their own land
"may" help rid the State of tenantfarming,
he said.

Those moving through the exhibit
lingered longest nearly always ^ I
front of a portrait found many I
years ago in a fisherman's cottage I
at Nags Head and believed to be ot I
Theodosia Burr, daughter of Aaron I
Burr- The painter, said Robert Mac. I
beth of the Macbeth Galleries ^ I
New York, is believed to be JohaH
Vandelyn, one of the great early
American painters. Macbeth ar-l
ranged the exhbiit here, and spoke I
on the convention program Tues
day nightTheodosia
Burr, Macbeth sail,!
was the wife of John Alston then I
Governor of South Carolina, inl
1812 she sailed from Georgetown I
S. C., for New York to see her I
father, and neither the ship, Theo- I
dosia or anyone aboard the ship I
was ever seen again.
About 60 years later a Dr. Poole
found the portrait in the cottage I
of an old woman at Nag's Head.?
The old woman told a story of how I
the painting had been given to her I
about sixty years before by her I
husband- Macbeth theorized Pirates I
along the North Carolina coast had I
made Theodosia Burr and every-1
one else aboard her ship, "The Pa-1
triot," "walk the plank"
At any rate, he concluded, that.

lime portrait "has the most ro-1
mantic story behind it of any I
piece of American art."
It was sold to my father in 19131
and this is the first day it has I
been back in North Carolina since I
that day."
Macbeth praised the society and I
Mrs. Arrington for the work done I
and especially that the Society was I
able to celebrate its 10th anniver-I
sary. "Most of those celebrating I
their first anniversary never cele-1
brate a second," he said.
