SATURDAY. Jl'I.Y 14, 1923.
Wouldn't it bo line if Eliza
beth City had a Mrs. Edith Van
derbilt to elect president of the
Albemarle District Fair Asso
ciation.
President Hardiiig's oath nev
er to mistreat a dog or a horse
could not be construed. The Ad
vance takes it, to include the
Democratic donkey or the G. 0.
P. elephant.
Old Jess fought his last fighl
before a full house and* quit, re
ports say, something like $100,
000 in pocket. The Advance
hopes there'll be a nest eg}; left
after he pays his debts, and that
he'll be able to steer shy of
bankruptcy for the remainder of
his days.
The Associated Press, The
Advance observes, has taken no
tice of the new bus service es
tablished in Elizabeth City for
the convenience of the shopping
public and is sending the story
of it to The Associated Press
dailies in the State. It's news, all
right, but it makes good adver
tising for Elizabeth City.
The German reparations note,
which England is undertaking
to answer, stipulates a virtual
moratorium of four years be-j
fore reparations payments^ are,
begun. What Germany and the ,
allies of France in the war may,
as well understand in the begin
ning is that France is not going |
to get out of the Ruhr on the |
basis of a German promise to'
pay.
According to the Edenton j
News the boll weevil has been I
found in Chowan this summer. I
Last year it was but a few ?
weeks after the weevil reached
Chowan before it was found in i
Pasquotank. Pasquotank farm-i
era may be expected to be on the
alert for the first sign of the
pest in their cotton fields, but it
is* a rather different sort of
alertness from that with which
they watch for the first cotton
bloom.
The only baseball game'
played by Edenton mentioned
by this week's Albemarle Ob- j
server was one in which Eden
ton defeated Aulander, 3 to 2.
This, according to the Observer,1
was a very good game. The in
ference is that those in which
Edenton was defeated were
punk. "Interest in baseball
seems to be lagging in Eden
ton," naively remarks Editor
Story. And that was before
Friday's slaughter when Eden
ton bit the dust 14 to 4. The
Advance wouldn't be a bit sur
prised to hear now that interest
in baseball in Edenton has prac
tically disappeared."
The Suffolk News is very
ttusy telling its readers that the
policy of the News is not dictat
ed or controlled by News adver
tisers. The News says in so
many words that statements to
this effect will be made and re
iterated in its columns until peo
ple are brought to realise their
truth. But a newspaper gets
nbout as far with such state
ments as this as a woman can
l>y proclaiming her virtue. The
only way a newspaper can gain
the confidence of its readers in
its integrity and independence
is by daily demonstration over a
period of years. And there one
haa one of the reasons why a
I "newspaper can not be made
overnight.
