Begin Planning
The establishment of the Cooper
age Company's mills was through
the energy and enterpiise of the
citizens of Williamston. The mill
now in operation, though all the
buildings have not teen completed,
and the track from the Coast Line
Staton is about finished. This all
has been accomplished by orgacized
effort and necessary funds in the
hands of the Holdings Company.
But the Cooperage Company and
Pants Factory are not industries
sufficient—pla;is should be made to
establish otlur mil!* litre if not by
home folks, then invite other con
.cerns to couie. We have an abun
dance of swamp timber which can
be utilized iu various way; ship
ments by boat und rail, thus com
- peting with other towns for wood
working f.tctcr es. A planing mil!
is needed h jr e, And there aie
rumors that one wll be built—! ut
make it a certainty.
No business man has ever con
cealed the fact that Williamston i«
the best town for a peanut factory
in this section The raw material
Is here, the labor is waiting to ho
hired at a reasonable price for that
class of wofk.
The Board of Tiade has excell
ent reasons for advertising the
to wd. beit'K In a paf cr post lion now
than evtr to offer inducements for
capitalists. No better farming is
done in tlie State thau in this im
mediate section, and farm lands me
at a high premium. Don't lit
stop but keep tip tlu pacv which
has bten begun bere. "A betUt
and biggtr Williatuston," should
be the slogan on our lips and fiud
echo in the minds and activities cf
our citizens.
Drinking Too Fast
German scientists who recetitv
visited the United States declared
that Americans drink too fast, and
should take moie time in the cou
sumption of their potious. Dr.
Albeit Oliven, luad of the Berlin
Samtoriutu, declared that we should
not try to do a.marathon with our
beer, to see how much we can
drink iu a giwu time, but that one
should take his glass and rool with
it for half au hour.
Now, if there is virtue iu cutting
down the allowance of beer, why is
there not more virtue in stopping
the ailowance altogether? And if
one should take a half hour in
which to dituk lii*> glass, in order
to get the most benefit out of it,
why uot make one glass do for
three or four year?? As a matter
of fact, the only proper way to
xirink beer is from an c npty glaes.
