While wc would not criticise the town fathers for their act in doing away with the whole-time public health nurse, we feel sure that the nurse will be xircljr missed in Dunn and the surrounding communities.

On 'be contrary, it would probably mean hi* re-entrance into political affairs in a stronger position than he ever held before.*' MAKE DONATIONS TO COUNTY SING . Realising that the county-wide sing, to he held here on September lOh. meant more than a mere sing ing contest, the board of county commissioner* m session Monday appropriated $100 from county i funds to help defray expenses of . the sing. On the other side of the county's . legislature, the board of education did the same thine settme acute a It inxired dollars to help with the staging of the song festival. A local committee appeared be i fore the boards and presented to , them the great advantage of foster : ing the sing movement, the wide publicity given the county for its pioneering in this form of com munity development, and the duty of the county's official heads to thus assist in the mental, moral and spir l itual uplift of the people enmasse. Promoting officials of the aing organizations are much encouraged at the stand taken by the two boards and they state that prospects are very bright for the best dug that has ever been held in the county. County commissioner* reverted to equalization matters to some de gree Monday when they found quit* a number of complainants on hand who wanted their property a little more " equalized.'' In atime cams it was found that | (filbecfrfiracata quo, while in ,_ cases the value was reduced. There was not a great quantity of this sort of work before the board, tow ever, because it would seem that a majority of property owners in Harnett realize that their property is already listed iow enough. Instructions were given to Super intendent Lanier of the county con vict gang to allow the prisoners the sum of sevenly-five cenrs as com pensation per day while working out any court costs that might be. ap pended to their sentences.— Harnett County News.
