Its approval of the pur chase of downtown property on : which will be erected a new li-1 brary building, and possilby at some later date a municipal of fice building, is in keeping with the planned progress of the town along the lines which have made it the distinctive commun ity it is.

When the nights grow cold; You give us happy moments Lilte treasures of purest gold. tive stores, modern sti’eet light ing, a landscaped business cen ter, an outstanding postoffice building, residences of distinc- j We drink your precious wine tive architecture. There is noth- inhale your perfumed air; ing shoddy about Southern Pines, in contradistinction to so many villages of its size. We don’t look dow'n-at-the-heel. i Now we will add to all this a library building in keeping with these distinctions, something that will be an asset architectur ally and usefully. It will be sur rounded by a park giving us another central beauty spot. And best of all, it will forestall the encroachment upon land adjoin ing the postoffice property of business structures that might rise in the course of time to de spoil our very fine government building. The Pilot believes the acquisi tion of this property, for the purposes designed, enhances the value of all downtown property in Southern Pines. We revel in each bright flower, So dainty, pure and rare. And when you must go We are sorry, And bid you a sad adieu; And the crown for the choicest month, We bestow, October, oxi you. —FLORA MELVIN LEWIS- not planning to act on the "permis- sion” granted him. The Pathe Sports picture which had its locale in Pinehurst where it was shot last winter has been shown in more than 4,000 theatres. LAKEVIEW A SERIOUS INDICTMENT An advertisement in a recent issue of The Pilot brings^ to the electorate of Moore county the information that a candidate for the State Legislature “has not paid any tax to Moore county in over seventeen years.” This is a serious indictment against a candidate for any pub lic office. It is particularly ser ious against one seeking public support as representative of his county in the State legislative body which has so much to do with taxation. We are asked to have represent us at Raleigh one who is not representative of our citizenry, for we look upon ourselves as good citizens. A good citizen pays his taxes, aids in the support of the commun ity which gives him his home and his livelihood. It does not seem to The Pilot that this is a party issue in this campaign. The Pilot, a non-par tisan, independent newspaper, must appeal for support for the man offering himself for public office who it deems best quali fied and most deserving of sup port. It does not believe that in this case there are any two sides to the question. Democrat or Republican, our representa tive in the State Legislature should be representative of the people of his county. THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR CONGRESS The squabble in this Congres sional district over the Demo cratic nominee for Representa tive may result, many believe, in North Carolina sending at least one Republican to the House in the coming election. Much hard feeling has been engendered by the Burgin-Deane dispute, and scars left which may not heal before November 8th. In view of this fact the peo ple want to know more about Mr. Jones, the G. 0. P. candidate Robert E. Harlow and Louis Koch ‘‘checked in” at Pinehurst during the past week. Mr. Harlow' and Mr. Koch, comprising Pinehurst’s public ity staff, have opened an office in the Pinehurst Department ' Store building where typewriters have al ready begun to click in preparation of stories of the first event on the sports calendar, the 18th annueil Mid- Souh Professional golf tournament on November 15, 16, 17 and 18. We're indebted to D. C. Phillips of Southern Pines for this story: Frank W. Webster, superintendent of Southern Pines schools, received the following note after writing to a mother about a refractory pupil: “Dear Mr. Webster—yu writ me about whippin my i hereby gives you permission to lick him any time it 3 necessary to larn hm hi.s lessuns hes jst like his paw you have to lern him with a club please pound knowlej into him i want him to git it don’t pay no atenshun to his paw ill handle him." Mr. Webster, we are informed, is who made a fine impression on his listeners ai a Republican ral ly in Carthage last Friday night. Mr. Jones, age 56, native of Stokes county, worked his way through high school and college, studied law at Wake Forest, married Miss Rose McNeill, dau ghter of the Rev. Milton Mc Neill, Wilkes county. Mr. Jones located in North Wilkesboro in 1910, forming a partnership with Johnson J. Hayes, who is now federal judge of the middle district of North Carolina. Jones and Judge Hayes were law part ners for 17 years. In 1S26 Jones was elected solicitor of the 17th Judicial district, which office he held for 12 years. Mr. Jones holds the distinction of being the only Republican solicitor in the state, and so well liked in his district that at the last general election he had no opposition. Mr. Jones lives in a “log cab in home” on his dairy farm about scix miles out of North Wil-kesboro. He is known throughout the state as a dairy farmer and is proprietor of the famous “Meadow Brooks Dairy,” one of the outstanding grade A dairies in North Carolina. Mr. and Mrs. Jones had no children of their own, but they have been father and mother to and educated eleven children. Mrs. Jjones has just recently died.
