Friday, December 14, 1928 Max Gardner To Be Commefided 53 Max Gardner has said one thing that will make him popular. That is that he will not permit the gover nor's salary to be raised while he is in office; which is quite commendable, although the salary is too low.. Yet he was elected on the low salary basis and is to be commended for refusing to take more. It is hard for the State officers to live on the pres ent salary scale, and if a State officer has no other income he can hardly meet his obligations with his salary. If the style of living in this country is to remain as high as it is, then everybody must increase their income. Now, if Governor Gardner will set a sim ple pace of living, so the people of the State will not have to run so fast to keep up. he will do a wonder fur good. The Children's Home Society The people of the State should feel a just pride in the Children's Home Society, which gathers the un-*- fortunatet* from all (jarts of the State, generally gel ting those who have no other chance. They therr find places for them in good homes or in some institution where they may have a chance. Many of these chil dren are legally adopted and soon become heirs to much property. This work is carried on by just a few people by private donations; |>ossibly not more than one per son out of SOO has ever given a cent to this worthy cause. In looking out over a needy field and seeing the thousands of children without father or mother, or it may be children with parents too low and base to take care of their children in a proper way, it is gratifying to know that there is a stream of the great wealth of the country in the hands of men and women who have the vision to help these help less people. We know of no better way to make a valuable Christmas gift than to enclose a check to John ). Phoenix, superintendent of the Children's Home Society, Greensboro, N, C. It will not go astray but will be used in making some child better and hap pier.

This time because we inade a larger percentage of gain in the purchase of automobiles than any other State. It may be a sign of our prosperous condition, or it may be that our roads are so good that everybody ha* to have an automobile. Yet our roads are so good that cars should last much longer than if used on bad roads. It may be that we are buying too many automobiles. If we are really prosperous, of course, we have grounds to talk; hut if we arc overstraining ourselves and buying cars that we do not need, it might be best not to say very much. The Dismal Swamp Canal The United States Government bought the Dismal Swainp Canal from the Lake Drummond Canal c£>. this week for the of $500,000. This canal, for almost a century, was the leading water route from Eastern Carolina waters to the Chesapeake Bay, the Albemarle and ( h sapeake Canal being its pnly rival it was a longer route than the Dismal Swamp Canal, however. When the inland waterway project was being planned, the owners of the Albemarle and Chesa peake managed to get the ears of the government first tnd sold their canal. This canal was then dredged to a much greater depth, widened, and made a free canal to all shippers. Now, the government finds it chose ihe wrong route and is buying the old Dismal Swamp ( anal, which was surveyed and laid out by George Washington. We are glad the Dismal Swamp Cam) has been taken over and will now be made a free canal. It will make a shorter and quicker route for the upper Übemarle section. 4 Censoring the Movies The moving picture people have announced their intention to fight any effort for censoring moving pictures. It-is doubtful if they are taking the pr»per course. There has never been a day in history that our laws and our courts have, not assumed the right to say what is fit for the folks to do nnd to see. Since the moving picture business is sj enormous in its scope and influence, it, too, should lie regulated along the same lines of good taste and dicency that govern other activities in our society. It is generally admitted that foul pictirvs will dtew bigger crowds than "tame" pictures, which may f>e the reason that the moving picture people oppose censorship. In fact, it can be for no otli >r reason but the financial loss that they fear, b; cause show folks are just as anxious for d«£ncy as anyb >dy. It is purely a financial matter with them, and they know wild pictures bring big crowds. The Christmas Spirit The holidays will begin nexj, week in full force. The colleges will be emptied, and the sons and daugh ters will be rushing home. The schools will all dose, and the children will be full of glee. We all like the Christmas spirit, and though it means a season of rest for many, at the same time it always calls for much work from others. Nobody can afford to lose the Christmas spirit, and we should not forget to hold the season in reverence, because it is in memory of the Love Giver.
