A GOOD SUGGESTION
Ever since it became known that
the State of North Carolina would
June a surplus the State institutions,
end especially the educational in
*trrurion?, nave been working their
bcaans to see. just how much it
weald be possible for them to secure.
LasT week the Budget Committee was
in session and when all applications
-from the various state institutions
were footed up it was found that
they otrty wanted, four million dol
lars increase in appropriations.
?Gaveraoor McLean is chairman of
tfcia commission, and during the
Twarfafp "he asked if it niight not be
better to give the rural schools more
?caw aide ration, and the suggestion was
smm&e that it might be well to dis
'ro?tim>e the practice of furnishing
?fcrmttorie? at the State institutions.
And why not? Why should the
State furnish rooms f>r those at the
State institutions, when it does riot
famish rooms for those who attend
the high schools. It is a well known
fact that before one can enter one
of the State institutions they must
go through the high school, h 3r.ee
it is very important that some con
aeration be igiven the high school
u dent, but no dormitories are fur
nished them.
One would gather from the Gover
nor's remarks that the public schools
were have more consideration' than
ever before, and we trust we have
sot read his remarks wrong. All
wiD admit that the rural student isj|
entitled' to the same eduicat/:nal ad
vantages as the city student, but
they are not getting it, and an eight
?months school term is; as we. see it, 1
I -?cne of the impossibilities until the
I wealthy cities and counties bear their '
pHTt of the burden, and help the rural !
^districts.
We know it is unpopular, save in I
the rural secti:n, but we. ar? strog
Jy wedded to the idea that tho State
should take over the educational
5JTKtem entirely, and instead of th.- |
"counties levying a school tax, let
j the State levy the tax, and make it |
| aaiform. This is honest and just,
and if the r*ptpsentatives of the
*?&aller counties desired they could
^put it across, b\it the politicians and |
1he wealthy tJwns oppose . it, and
there you are.
i About the most the country chil
dren can hope for is an increased |
appropriation for the equalization
fund, which is a sham and a delusion.
Wo are glad to see that the Old
"Veterans are to receive an increase j
irx their pension, the Amount for ?,
1h< m this year will be absut two !
htmd red ind-'.ftfty dollars each. This
thin line is jrettinjr thinner and thin-' j
Tier, and ere many years pass there ?
will be precious few- of them living I

It's Time to Pay j
Have You Paid Your Account? I
? ; ^ l
Have You Even Paid Part Of It?
Quite a number of our farmer customers have paid their
accounts in full, many have paid part but a great many
more have not paid a cent this fall. The tobacco crop
is good this year, the average price is high, you are selU
Jng right along. Many have sold the greater part of
their crop. We need what you owe us: and want to urge
you to come in and pay promptly. Pay all if you can, |
but if you can't pay all at once pay as much as you can .
spare and the balance when you sell more of your crop. i
The sooner you pay the more good it will do us.
It is a great pleasure to extend crcdit to one who meets I
his payments promptly, but the fellow who takes more ?
time than necessary is a very undesirable 'friend ( ?)
This may be poor advertising, but it carries a message |
and we had rather collect now than to sell. However. j
we have a splendid stock of Everything To Wear and |
are mighty anxious to sell it to those who pay cash or j
pay their accounts promptly. |
