September 4. 1934 Schools Open Again Soon Schools are on the eve of opening for another ses sion. What condition will the three-quarters of a million children in North Carolina present when they enter u(>on their work for the 10.14-35 school year - How much worthwhile knowledge have they gained since the close of the last school year? Have they gathered lessons of culture, modesty, and a finer sense of the human association and duties to society, or have they been permitted to enter a wider range of selfishness and bigotry, a greater determination to do as they plase? Are they more determined to shirk their du ties to parents, home and church? Have they neg lected too many of the duties of life and a willingness to work for the games and fads of the day? Will they be prepared to make the grade and go into a higher class at the end of the year, or will they .slum ber and shirk the work that is necessary to make good men and Wumeil nnrt hold no) only themselves bol others back in their classes? ? 'The cost of educating ' re|ieaters" in school is very heavy Vet some parents will permit their children to loiter around the sireels and waste their time and fail at the end of the year. Such parents should be "double-taxed, d such failure is caused fur the same reason that is generally found to exist. No father or mother has the right to let their child waste their time and then let the public pay the extra cost of teaching their child for another year for no reason except carelessness, neglect, and laziness. Parents should remember that most children who fail in school are likely to fail in life. l)o not let your children tail. Lead them oil. Work Or Go Hungry All those people who have failed to make due prep art ions will soon hear the cry " The harvest is past, the summer is over and gone." Then they will have to listen to the wail of the winter wind and face the pangs of hunger until springtime comes again. Of course, they expect- the government or some organiza tion to feed them. - What we need is a citizenship willing to do all they can to care for themselves It is a great burden to have to carry the lazy and slothful that never make any effort to do their part in making their own liv ing It will be a good thing to teach every man how to earn a living and then, if he fails through his own neglect, let him go hungry until he is willing to work. Good News From Recorder's Court The news coming, from Recorders t'ourt judge H. O. Peel that he will not longer tolerate laxness in the [layment of fines and costs will lie hailed as good news by the law-abiding public Kor a time the court has been little more than a joke, since,very little was required of a culprit com ing ttp before the-twurt for crimes and misdemeanors. If the fine was meted out, the defendant would |>ay his money to a lawyer to Iry To evade the payment, and all kinds of excuses would lie |>resented why the tine should be remitted and ihr coots paid by the county. The court now seems to be inclined to start send ing defendants to the roads and jail for violations of the law, which is the proper thing. When men go into the business of wife heating, or neglecting their own wives and children and begin giving their atten tion and bestowing their goods on other women, or getting drunk and driving wildly on the highways, or stealing their neighbors' goods, then a fine is too good for them and a season of hard road work is what they need. The law-abiding people will I* with you, Judge Peel, when you levy heavier fines and send more folks to jail. Pay Old Debts First * Debts are easily paid when we have money, an the surest way to pay taxes and debts is to pay ther with the first money we get. Tobacco is selling high, although we have a shot crop and will not have many barrels of money whe k is all sold. The peanut and cotton crops are bot short and we will possibly not get as many doltai for them as we had hoped. So the safest thing to d Is to get all the old debts out of the way as quickl as possible so we will feel better. Deadly Enemies Newspapers for a price are the most deadly enemies the country faces today. Big business has thousands of men writing for them, praising their work and trying to discredit every move that is made for democracy. Many newspapers are owned or dominated by these fellows, and it is surprising to see the power they have over the ordinary mind. Mr. DuPont, one of the favored wealthy, thinks we need to restore confidence. That is not what he wants, however. He wants to restore a particular kind of confidence. He knows that since the inaug uration of President Roosevelt 95 per cent of the American people have gained confidence in their gov ernment and know that it will no longer stand for the wealth of this country to dictate government and suck the life blood out of our entire business system while poverty stalks the homes of the laborer, the farmer, the teacher, the doctor, the lawyer. So, Mr. DuPont, you are mistaken when you say the |>eople have lost confidence in the government. What you want is the restoration of confidence for you and your gang that you may have privileges with out bounds to gamble and speculate on the govern ment's resources, on the products of the laborer, and the crops from the farms. And then let you go fur ther, make shot and shell and high explosives, then go out and talk war so you can sell them for big profits and have young men slain on battlefields in order to increase your profits. Mr. DuPont, your loss of confidence means nothing more than your realization that under the new deal you cannot plunder, rob and kill human beings to in crease your ill-gotten gains.'' The truth is the honest people have confidence in the new deal. It is the greedy gang which has been curbed in their nefarious designs who have lost con fidence.. And, Mr. DuPont, you are one of the fellows who are trying to fool the folks. If they are wise, they will not believe you. Pay More?And Get More News comes from every quarter of North Carolina that many of the best teachers are resigning their po sitions in the schools to enter other fields of work. I'hey are not to be blamed. A wise thing it seems when we consider the salaries paid teachers and thd rigid requirements demanded of them. The schools will eventually have to pay decent salaries or the school system will suffer great ly. A man or a woman with the character, training and ability will not entei any life's work that does not offer more inducements than the teaching profes sion now offers, and the future teachers will have to come from those who use the profession as a stepping stone to something higher. l'ay more, require more and you will get more. "The Unwritten Law' The News and Observer editorially thinks a man should not plead the unwritten law to save his neck at the expense of a woman's honor. It is very doubt ful that there is much honor to protect in most such cases. If, however, there is, it should be protected. As we see it, no killing is more justifiable than in most cases where the "unwritten law" finally becomes the grounds of defense. Certainly, it is far more justifiable than the old self-defense plea so often brought into court. If there is anything that comes into the mind of man that excites him to kill, it is unfaithfulness and the destruction of the home. And when the facts ace clear, then the "unwritten law" is the best defense. September Planting Month September is the rye month. Rye holds the fer tility in the soil, keeps it from washing, gives good grazing and furnishes vegetable matter to make a better crop next year. All good farmers say it pays to sow rye. The hogs, the cows, the horses, and the hens all like it. Some good farmers recommend sowing more rye and buying less costly fertilizers. Oats will make just as good grazing as rye, but will not stand as much cold. You can also sow turnips, rutabagas, and a half dozen other garden crops now. It pays to have-plenty of winter "greens." They are cheaper than high priced meats and better for you. It will be too U'e to sow pretty soon. Wise Farmers Siotlaiul Xeck Commomvralth. Hats off to farmers of Oeorgia, North and South Carolina who so wisely are using their tobacco money to wi|>e out production credit debts before attempting to partake of luxuries. According to information from the Farm Credit Administration, many Georgia farm ers have completely wiped out their entire production credit debts and other farmers of the Carolines are taking advantage of the opportunity offered by the excellent prices they are receiving for their tobacco to reduce their indebtedness to the governmnt. Only yesterday we heard of several local farmers who had al ready paid off in full their government loans which were used to produce the crop, and the cash from the tobacco crop did the work, they said. It looks like the down-trodden farmer is getting a break this year, and his joys are bring shared by every one alike, for we all rejoice in the dawning of the new day for the man of the soil. Those men who are using their first tobacco money to curtail or wipe out their government loans are us ing the wisdom of Solomon and will be free to spend the rest of their "weed" money for the luxuries they want. We commend their actions and rejoice with them in the prices they are getting for their crops.
