After this week, however, the re sponsibility diverts to the driver, and " pullings " w ill be in onier. Tile splendid order which pre vailed here on July 4 is a credit to Dunn and the Dunn district Time was when with a gathering of that number several policemen would liave had “their hands full." Yeti jieace and quiet marked the celebra-j tion of the Nation's 14/ th Wrllwlay | in Dunn. Th« Dunn Band Kot only is “ Dunn the best townj under the snn," but it ha* one of I the best concert band* to be found j in like territory. The band mem ber* did themselves proud on Wed nesday, the Fourth of July. That Kind would have looked good, and sounded good, at any place and at any lime We ate indeed proud of the Dunn concert band, and no; doubt the citizenship generally feels the same. The band as it now stands is worthy of the unstinted support of the home people and should receive it. Just Lika 'Em One who observed how the folks ■' took on’’ to the new crossing law on last Sunday, the first <lay it was a law. says very few white |>eople and no negroes at all paid any atten tion to the " State l-nw; Ss«>f> ’’ sign at a certain crossing. Now, isn't it a shame how folks are prone to disregard the law ? The law was pasted for the protection of the automobile public, its purpose being to save lives and property. Yet the very people who make it necessary to pass laws to save their lives arc the ones wlto defy the law after it has been passed. -—o H Hspp—sd Recently we predicted that it was about time for something sensation-1 al to develop in Raleigh, and die ” sensation ” has happened. It came about on Saturday of last week when Governor Morrison hawled out Tom Host, the Raleigh corres pondent of The Greenslwro Daily New*. The Governor denounced Tom as a ” sneak " and a “ common liar,” and advised him to get out and stay out'of his office. Mr. Rost, who is somewhat of a preacher as well as newspaper man, took the Governor at his word and got out. Whether he will stay out or not re mains to be seen. In his explanation of “ how crane," the Governor accuse* Tom of “ eavesdropping ” and ” spymff ” from “ a place wliere he had no lru*ine»s.” This is strong arcus* ngHirut a nCw!»p«|fCr man, «*ui a* the mailer now stands it would ujipear that both Tom and the flov ci nor might he somewhat to Name for tlic “ explosion " thal ai»varmt |y hsd been brewing for several months. The Pablle Library perhaps the outstanding achieve ment of the Woman’* rltib of Dunn , during the past year was the suc cessful launching of a public library. It required tireless energy and per indent effort upon the pan of the rltih members to get the library in operation, ami now that it u filling ft* mission, every citixm V>{ the town should rally to its support Fbewhere m this "*°r win h, found die report of the lrbrariac for the first mouth's history of the local library. The report makes in teresting reading, and shows that the voting people of Dunn are tak ing advantage of the oppoi tunitk-* which tt oti'ets.

T)»c-re was a ahade of difference in the ronsecutivcness of the bunched hits, and tbit was where Wilson was more effective than Pat terson.
