JANIWRY 3. 1924. RainenufToryu ? Good evening. Are your New Year's resolutions still intact? We can't sing, but here's to the success of the new Elizabeth City choral club. Dozen shot in Baltimore in the New Year's celebration. ' That's nothing to the number who were half shot. The trimmest oil tanker ever seen in these waters is the Tam arack, now docking regularly at the wharf of the Texas Com pany. Miles Clark must have known what he was about when he bought her. ' Germany is a horrible exam ple of- the nation that endeavors to evade its debts. And the in dividual who refuses to face his obligations is headed the same ways as the nation that declines to balance its budget. The' Advance is always open for suggestions and especially will appreciate hints as to how to make such new features as the farm news page and the waterffont column more intei't eating. See by tjie Edenton News that "A Citizen" of that town admits ''there is room for a lot of im provements" around that town. But who ever expected to see such an admission coming out of Edenton? Whether one favors the par allel parking law or not, it seems to The Advance, depends on whether the paved streets are to be cbnsidered primarily as thoroughfares or as parking areas. "A1 Smith wants beer and wine," reads a headline in our favorite Elizabeth City evening newspaper. But we suppose A I wants it understood that he is trying to modify the Volstead Act for the other fellow and not for himself. Allman's Duffs, who do their stunts daily in The Advance, seem to us to be as good a comic strip as is to be had. If the DufTs are less ridiculous than Jiggs or Mutt and Jeff, they are much more human. And their doings lack the sameness of the older comics. Doubtless would-be Republi can opponents of young Theo dore Roosevelt for the Republi can gubernatorial nomination iir New York think it hardly fair that one man should at once bo the son of a popular President, have rightful claim to the title of colonel, and have the fortune for his friends to call him by the chummy-sounding name of Teddy. But such is life. 1 Folks who have an idea that Elizabeth City has stood still for the last ten years, just hecausr the census gave the town but lit tle gain in population, should take a look at the way banking resources have increased within that period. A 500 per cert gain in deposits in the last ten yearq by one of the city's banks, The Advance takes it, is a pret ty fair index of the financial growth of the town.
