The Rockingham Post Dispatch
last week said; "Every case that ia
tric.1 before the mayor or magistrate
here is published, whenever the pa
p»i known it, regardless of who the
prisons uit1." Thl* will ho the future
policy of the Donn Dispatch towards
tha local recorder's court. In othor
woids, the only way to "stay out
of the papor" will bn to stay out of
the recorder's court.
A young man. or wotr.ar. either,
should not become discouraged whan
they make a business failure. If
•very young man who loses in hig
first love adventure .-lopped with that
first loss, the world would be filled
with old bachelor*. It pays to try,

Are you doing your part to keep
"Dunn (hr best town under the ran,"
or are you toaving it to youi neigh
bor?
We'd prcooum-e it a shocking lost,
the loss of a pint of "bottled in bond"
whu*ey, which was incurred in Dana
by a traveling man recently. What
would you call it?

• The Wilmington Newt is the name
of a new afternoon newspaper to bo
published In WllmJagton. This new
afternoon paper it fathered by the
Wilmington Star Co., which company
publishes The Wilmington Homing
_ Star, _the oldest daily newspaper, In
the State.
The Raleigh News aad Observer re
cently referred to Dunn as "the
largest town in the State to Its else,”
which reference Dti the town exactly.

Farmers generally will welcome1
this real winter weather, hoping thatj
it may result in the freeaiag to death
of at least a part of last year's boll,
weevil crop. Here's hoping afong with!
' them.
8p«aking of passing laws to make
it easier for people to unnsarry, it
might bo said that the only difference
tn the coot of marrying and securing
a divorce under tha present law, ia
tha difference in the cost of marriage

A DANGEROUS
PRACTICE.
If some motion Is not taka, sithoi
by tho town commissioners or tha pa
rents of Dunn, to stop chi Id ran from
skating or. the paved streets, it is
to be farad thst thb habit Is going
to result in the death of tho eon or
daughter of some local father and
mother. Only recently a small girl
skating on Bread street fell directly
in front of a heavy-loaded wagon
and barely no heed being crushed to
death. Several ether children have
barely mlesed being run down by en
tomoMl»e while skating an the street*
It would be better to stop thb dan
go roue practice a the past of chil
dren before the life of somo child
ha boa snuffed oat than to wait
until after this has happened.
In Mas terras and cities ordinan
ces have boon psteed by the town
commissioners prohibiting skating,
not only on the pavsd streets, bat
also on tho paved sidewalks. Thb
may be carrying tha matter a little
too far, bet aa child should ho allow
ed the privilege of taking the ohanoe

it in evidence at tha meeting eailed
by the Dana Chamber of Cornnwrea
Tuesday evening to dbcate-and de
vise plans for tha erectlen of a hos
pital la Dana, the end xrf the year
IMS win Bad a modern hospital herg.
The sitbeng of Dunn generally agree
that ana af the present outstanding
needs ef Dunn ad the Dunn District
Is a hospital, and the citlwae of tha
town should bad every pemibU ef
fort ia bringing te Dunn thb much
ncoded public Itetltatton.
Only a few days ago, a cltlsen of
tho tawa was stricken wMh seats ay
peed leMb. It was aguqtey te tabs
the patient- te Psyettovtlla, M mtta
•'»tant on u car for uu operation.
Eeforo the hospital coulil be reached,
the diseased appendix had bunt,
k4 rutly endangering the ll/o of the
victim. Bad there been a hospital In
Uunn this patient could havo receiv
ed the nccusaury attention much
U'lt'vr nnd the danger of fatal re
ndu largely eliminated.
Dunn need, g hospital, and in or
der to pet it, the citisene of tha town
must make some sacrifice*. Will you
do your part?

UNMASK THE
K. K. K.
Represents tie* Townsend of Dunn
win listed us mtr of the 68 memkars
of the legislature who Wednesilay vo
ted for the passage of th* Millikan
bill, which provides for th* registra
tion and unmasking of secret organi
sation.. This bill, which it was de
clared "cuts tho heart out of U>«
Ku KJux Klan," was passed by the
Mouse by a vole *f 68 to 44.
Opponents of tire bill made a hard
fight to provanl its passage, bringing
Into play every pariiamentary rtn
iouivi- at their command. It might be
said for those members who voted
for the passage o fthia bill that they
--IVir
vlctiont, regardless ot politics.
If the Ku Klux Klan hu a field
for service, it It only fair and right
that It perform that service in th*
open.
AWAY WITH
THE IDEA.
There are farmer* In th« Dolin'
District who arv possessed with an1
idea that cotton is the only crop upon
which they can depend for money.
These farmer* arc sadly mistaken,
for the fertile tolls ol thli section
will produce many other crop* in
sbumtancr—crops that can be sold
fji a profit equal to, if not creator,
tbnn a cotton crop. Among the many
crops yhlch can be grown in tho
Dunn District, beside* cotlou are, Ir
lah and sweet potatoes straw berries,
sugar cane, melons cantaioapea and
other truck rropa. While the farmers
of thig immediate section have never
muile a tsireeia growing tobacco, the
editor of The Dispatch has yet to he
convinced thst with the proper at
tention anil thought a good grade of
tobacco cannot be produced on the
lun-ls surroanding Dunn. However, in
order to make a success of growing
tobacco the grower must hsve a
thorough knowledge of how to culti
vate, harvest sad euro th* "weed."
The coming of the bell weevil
makes it necessary for th* farmer*
of thig section to turn at least a
part of their attention to other crop*
betide* cotton. The farmer who doe*
this beforo he has been "ruined” by
th# weevil ariil be the farmer who
will bust be able to Vliv# through”
the contest, or battle*, with the cot
ton pest.
The hon, the hog and the cow
arc other wessons with wblrh the
boll weevil should b* fought by the
farmer* of the Dana District More
permanent pastures will be necessary
in lighting this battle and Ge soon
er the farmers begin to grow thaa*
pasture*, the better. Permanent pas
ta res are an absolute necessity in
sorrowful hog and cattle raiging. Be
gin now to head off the weevil and
be will be much easier defeated than
if he gets Ge advantage in Ge start
