One goo<l tiling alHMit tl?* whvii ? we git ?' ?"?' th' Name plcturc* that hIiow in New York. 0 my! Have you filed that income tax return? Mighty glad that this drop in | the price of cotton came along before Instead of after cotton planting time in the Albemarle. And now the Wilmington Dispatch has changed hands again. Newspapers that gel 1 this habit never seem to know! when nor how to stop. Comes to our desk the Na-j tional PubUci.y Edition of tht* Washington Daily News, 32 pages stronfe. The Advance ex tends coi.gratulat.ions to its neighbor across the sound. Once more Congress has turned down White House lead ership. The Republicans start ed a habit when they got Wood row Wilson where they wanted him that they now find it hard for Congress to break. By making only a quarterly payment on your income tax at this time you can reap the ad vantage later of any cut in rate that Congress may make with out having to wait for the Gov ernment to make you ? refund. Congress has been so busy in-1 vestigating thaf it didn't get time to pass tax reduction legis lation. The people, The Ad vance believes, are pretty well fed up on Congressional inves tigations. Let Congress turn the oil scandal over to the courts and get down to its knitting. That Slate School Every now and then there is talk that the State is going to establish another normal school in the eastern part of the State and that Elizabeth City ought to be in line to get this school. Evidently other towns arf hearing something of the same thing. Here's an item that re cently ran in a North Carolina newspaper under a Kinston date line: This City in flecking the now State TralninK School for white boys, to bo cntabllnhed at ponn' point In tiir eastern section Chamber of com merce members have conferred with Simon C. Sltterson. local member of the school directorate, in regard to the matter. The school will be erect ed In the near future, the location to be determined during the next two or three weeka. Ideal sites are available just outaide of Klnaton. ac cording to the chamber of commerce committee. Tho directors have sn initial appropriation of $35,000 for the Institution. NORFOLK COTTON Middling (opened today) 29c Middling (cloned today .......lie THE HUMAN TOUCH "You had something wrong In your paper the other day." City i Councilman P. C. Cohoon called me I across the street to say the other I morning. "WhaJ was it?" I inquired, the muscles of niv body flexed as though to receive a blow. The Advance has slipped Into so many errors of late, some little, some big. that I am get ting a bit sensitive. Hut at Mr. Cohoon's reply, I re laxed and grinned broadly. "I notice you quoting Dr. Biggs as saying that there were none but line looking men in Martin County," he went on to say. his eyes beginning to tw?nkle. "Now I've lived In Mar tin County myself and I know tnat I)r. ?;iggs was dead wrong. The next time yotk see him ask him about Her man Cowan. Jim Red Wynn and John Clark. All three of them lived In Martin County and to my personal knowledge had the reputation of be ing the three ugliest men In the world." I sat In a mofie theater the other night just in front of a young woman with a cough. Periodically she was seized with a paroxysm of coughing and at each of these periods I felt her warm breath hit me squarely back of the neck, and in my imag ination, I could see the little bugs that are going to get me some day floating all about me ? until 1 sought a new location. A generation from now a person wllh a cold will be recognized a men ace in a public gathering place and will no more be tolerated in such a I place than a .Ictim of smallpox. Hut even in this benighted present, it; does seem that none of us, should be -t*** ? thmivhHews and ? carrlrss ? as ? trr cough or sneeze without covering the mouth or nose with a handker chief. I ? i The little printer, aged seven, Is i an applicant for Tom Sims' place on, i The Advance staff as soon as he grows up, only he doesn't want to i call his column by a name that will ' hide his own identity. As a sample J of what he has in mind he hands me the following, written yesterday when he had a bad case of ennui I | while waiting for his mother to lln-l Jsh her work and devote her atten- 1 tion to him: v TOM PKKLK SAYS Everything's .so dumfoozled. ... I feel so sad. ?* ? * I'd like to beat somebody up. I've had a fear for some time that ! my friend. Judge Spence of the re- j corder's court, was going to move his legal residence to the State of Virginia. And those fears have been confirmed rather than allayed since he's been and gone and had The Ad vance sent to him at Virginia Reach. 1 Just don't know how The Advance and Elizabeth City could get along without George. . ! Here, hoys, is a little story that j we read in Everybody's Magazine for j April. Try it on the family circle] tonight and see if you can handle it as well as Bob did: They were discussing ways and means of getting down off an ele- 1 phant. "Well, how do you get down?") a*k*-d Bob. | "You climb down, of course." "No," replied his friend Tom. I "Well, you grease his sides and slide down." suggested the other. I "Wrong again.'' insisted Tom. "Then you take a ladder if one Is handy and set down," was the next suggestion. 1 "No." "Well, you slide down his trunk." j j "No. you donkey. You don't get I I down off an elephant. You get it ofT | ' a duck." IIKU'KOKK NKWH 1 Belcross, March 14. ?
