Seems to be a rather late day in the baseball season to be changing a team leader. We'd like to spend this wee! with the farm boys and girls at the Old Fairgrounds. Can'1 help envying them a little bit. ?Reading matter in the adver tising columns of The Advance is worth the subscription price of the paper to one who trades in Elizabeth City. The Consolidated Press still leaves' this newspaper in the "Hark as to the reason for the failure of the promised Wash ington dispatches by Robert T. Small to show up- Our readers, we are sure, are not nearly so keenly disappointed at our fail ure to receive this extra service as is The Advance. With IleurlM Atmir Mayor Goodwin's proclama tion calling upon the places of business or of industry to cease operations during the hour from 12 to 1 o'clock Friday is timely and fitting. The hour chosen for a mem orial service also la a particular ly suitable one, it seems to The Advance, not only because in various cities of the couptry the same hour is being set apart as a time in which to render a tok ert of respect to the dead Presi dent, but also because it is the hour when downtown workers . in large numbers will be passing the courthouse green nnd when it will be most convenient for them to stop by and take part in the services. The-Advance hopes that not only will those to whom it is convenient join in the service, but that all others who can possibly do so will make it a point to be present. The Nation mourns the death of Warren G. Harding. It be hooves every patriot to tune hir heart to bent in unison with the heart-throbs of his country. So perhaps out of a Nation's sov row may come a new and more complete conception of a Na tion's obligation to mankind. Your Support Needed Scoutmaster Scattergood thinks Elizabeth City has about the finest boys in the world, and The Advance agrees with him about that and the other things he's telling you about Boy Scout work. Mr. Scattergood loves boys better than anything in the world. He could be sitting in the shade this hot weather and reading a book, but instead of that he's sweating like n regular fellow, braving the elements and the redbugs and mosquitoes, and constantly on the go doing things, Hot for Frank Scatter good, but for the "little fellers," your boy and mine, or if- not lit erally your boy, some boy at your very door whom you ought to be interested in. The Advance bespeaks foi him in his work your cordial support. He needs the aasur fence of your sympathy and in terest, perhaps, even more tha'r money for which he is ask DIKIGIBLE WINGS ITS WAY PAST HEKE Winging Its way southward across Albemarle Sound the first dirigible airship ever ob served from Elizabeth City was seen at an early hour Wednes day morning by the few who happened to be down on the waterfront shortly after sun rise and to cast their eyes east ward. The big ship, with the appearance of a drifting phan tom. came into view from the Advance editor's sanctum when it came from behind the Robin ton Building and perhaps five minute* later passed from view behind the trees of a point on the right bank of the Pasquo tank. Not a sound of Its en gines reached the city on the quiet air of early morning and the big ship at its distance of perhaps twenty miles or more away seemed to float across the horizon as lazily as a summer cloud.
