You can notice days are getting longer. Up-to-date job work done at all times at the Pilot office. It is about time now for the ice man to prepare for the summer shortage. If the average coal man’s body shrank to the size of his soul he’d look like a lath. And still another difference between death and taxes is that death is some times painless. A man usually starts out paying a girl a little attention—and the next thing he knows he is paying her bills. Then, again, sometimes the reason two can live as cheaply as one is because they have a lot of the stuff charged. Nowadays a wedding couple welcomes the old shoes that are thrown at them—if the shoes are of the right size. There is one auto to every sixteen peo ple in the United States. That means six riders to every ten dodgers. it is probably a good thing for the fellow who can “drink or let it alone” that dyna mite doesn’t come in liquid form. Enter your name on the subscription books of the Pilot and become a stock holder in the concern. It will pay you. There is at least one time when a Vass man agrees with his wife, and that’s when she tells him he’s the best fellow on earth. We shall reserve judgment in the case of Mr. O’Callaghan until he explains what the letter ’‘g” is doing in a name like that Now that cotton has taken the big drop, we wonder what the girls will do with those “simple muslin dresses” that cost a man a week’s salary. The Pilot man understands that it is now quite de rigeur, or whatever it is in parleyvoo, to wear the blouse waist over the skirt, and without knowing to what lengths the innovation may be carried, we cannot help feeling that it may help to save the situation if it is cut long enough. And the probabilities are that just when the advanced moralists get man all nicely covered up by reform he’ll get too hot and kick off the covers. If the Germans are paying the ex-Kaiser $25,000,000 a year and spending over $32,000,000 on champagne, it’s no wonder they’re yelling for help. “Political writer says women can scratch their tickets like men. But how about scratching matches ?”—Dayton News. Why not? It strikes us those very tight skirts have made the feat particularly easy of accomplishment There are a lot of good things in this old world but nothing has yet been found to beat the Vass wife who is both a com panion and a cook. We see where- a Detroit butcher has gone into bankruptcy. He must have given away a piece of liver with every pur chase. Now comes a story to the effect that bootleggers are so numerous in New York City they often catch themselves selling to each other. Would’nt this be a grand old world if we could go back to when folks knew how to have a good time without spending money. A French doctor professes to see some connection between the epidemic of hic coughs in Paris and the bare knees of its women. Well, from what we read, both must be prominent enough, but we’ll be hanged if we’re able to see any connection. Farmers of Harford county, Md., have shipped to Winston-Salem, N. C., 3,500 pounds of wool to be made into blankets and motor robes. Another shipment of wool will be made next week. Representative George R. Ross, of Moore county, has been placed on the legislative conmiittee on roads. No better man could have been selected for the position, and we extend congratulations. The Vass postoffice has been placed on the presidential list on account of the in crease of business with a salary of $1,200. The postoffice at Jackson Sdrings has also been advanced, and both offices are now on the same footing. This 'speaks well for this end of the county. Let the good work continue. Mr. George R Ross, who represents Moore county in the present legislature in troduced last Monday a bill amending the consolidated statutes providing for six months’ services by grand juries in Moore and Richmond counties. This is a bill that should become a law by all means. Fall River (Mass.) comes into the lime light as a result of the news that its cot ton mills are today operating on full time. The importance of this fact is so great that one may almost consider it to be the rainbow which pressages the end of the uncertainty of the past few months. Cot ton goods are staple products and real necessities, and it is impossible to believe that productions in this line can be cur tailed for any considerable period. The United States must have cotton; and or ders which have been placed in Fall River indicate that there is a turn in the tide of production. The market for raw cotto6 is somewhat stronger; and this latter con dition is perhaps partly due to rumors of German financing which will permit the stagnant industry of that country to get some needed materials. All things con sidered, the cotton trade seems to be look ing up; and this cannot be true except for reasons which will cause improvements in other lines of industry.—From last Mon day’s Baltimore (Md.)
