When the inevitable response to the call came the people of Dup

Let us hope no call f or relief will Issue to the nation from Dup

Teach Children feiy"
vii x i i. a n.nv hav ohaerved a "PUbHc Safe
ty Week" for the purpose of emphasizing children, the rudiments
of safety on the streets. , ; '
This Is a good ideal WhUe a number, of. Accidents are due, with
out doubt, to the careless operation of motor cars it is equally certain
that the pedestrian, very often, is to blame for an accident., Careful
ness means the observance of recognized rules, v If children were
taught how and where to cross streets many JUttie i ones would escape
harm In the next twelve months. . .
It does no good to say, after the accident, ''the driver was to
blame." Proper instructions to children should include aome actual
practice, and It seems to us that the school.is. the best place, to teach
the children this new necessity of modern llfe.

Do Not 3'Burn-oveitf Youri-and
Let us urge all landowners who have been accustomed to "burn
ing the woods" to investigate the sense bf the practice before putting
it into operation in 1935. The habit has 'come Into considerable disre
pute among well-informed farmers and the xpert, dealing, with the
crops and the woods, agree that it is foolish and expensive!. '
. The old Idea of touching off a forest ftrejinj order to clear up the
debris has cost landowners untold milUonrf iH OestBoyed timber and
stunted growth of trees. These facts have keii too jweU established,
v..u..u i vvo nwimaiv niipatinnnd. Agricultural asWta will quickly
teU you that the humus destroyed In burning over activated field
costs more than any grain that is acquired by the jdetrucyye $r-
cess. '' Tx -"J'' " ' '
So, let's 'adopt as a motto in Duplin County this ae)asoit, Jno.
Intentional burnnlng of woods and fieldsi ,Jt l"be the beginning of
saving money for us all. f . TIC

Despite the talk that la bandied around the country by;those
v ' y ! "V tetter there are very few newspaper men who can be boisj'-t
- Tr.3 chief - pointa of the- np'V
parc.e policy as outlined by- Air.
Edwin Gill,' Commissioner of Pa
roles, are as follows. ..
"Effective October 15, 1935, the
Commissioner of Paroles will name
in the parole order the Superin
tendent of Public Welfare of the
County in which the paroles is to
reside. : The parole order will re
quire specifically- that the prison
er report al least once a, month
until further notice. Upon recom
mendation of tne Superintendent
of Public Welfare the parolee may
be released from the requirement
of reporting and at the discretion
of the Governor he may also, be
discharged from parole. k
' ' "At an early date the Super
intendent of 1 Public Welfare will
be provided with forms on which
to report his contracts "with, the
parolee. J '" -: r
, "The State Parole Office will
mall the original parole order and
two 'copies direct to the Superin
tendent of Public Welfare named
in the parole order. The Prison Di
vision of the State Highway, and
Publiis': Works'- Commission .'"Will
have the: prisoner delivered to the
Superintendent of Public Welfare
and the prison officer will receive
as a receipt for the delivery of
said prisoner the original parole
order. The Superintendent of Pub
lic Welfare will, release the pris
oner on parole by presenting him
with a copy of the parole order
and by Instructing him as to- the
time and place he is to report.- -
"In order to give this plan very
practical' application the prisoner
will' be transferred to the prison
cantp:- nearest the county seat of
the county in which' the prisoner is
to' be released. Upon being notified
by the camp. Superintendent, the
Superintendent of Public Welfare
may have the prisoner brought to
his office for release, or he may go
m person' teethe camp to release
the prisoner, " ' - - .
." "We' believe that, the new. policy
will make parole supervision much
more effective.. "
On ' November ' 14th the first
prisoner was turned over to Mrs.
Harvey Boney, : Superintendent of
Public, Welfare, under the new po
licy,, by Mr., Edgerton, Prison Jn-
gine'rr for this district.
. We have for adoption three fine
and unusually healthy baby boys,

other two months-old and another

1936 Auto License
Tags On Sale Dec. 15
Raleigh, NOV.' 18 The 1936 au
tomobile license tags will -not go
on sale 'this year until December
10,: it was announced today by
commissioner of Revenue A. j.
Maxwell and-Director R. R. Mc
Laughlin of the Motor Vehicle Bu;
reau. Last year , the' 1935 license
plates ; went on- sale December 1,
but couuld not be used until Dec.
IB, since the law specified that the
new license' plates shall not be
used until' December IB. - In 1933,
because of the need of th revenue
from the sale of liense plates, they
were put on sale December 1 and
their use permitted after that date.
-Experience the' past two years
has shown, however that only a
very iew people purcnase tneir li
cense plates until-' that date. Ac
cordingly it was decided not to put
the 1936 license plates on sale at
all until December' 15, It-has also
been decided not to send out the
license application cards, to present
registered automobile owners un
til between December 10 and '18.
The past two years these applica
tion cards were mailed out prior to
December 1, with the result that
by the time many car owners went
to buy their licenses they had lost
their application-cards, - thus caus
ing extra trouble and delay both
for themselves and the license di
vision. '
'Since most of the people wait
until the last two weeks, if not the
last week, to buy their new license
es, .we decided not to open sales
until December 15 this year and
also, to mail the application Cards
out just barely: in time for them
to reacii uie ear owners by Decem-
vtuiuuwuucr ju.e12.weu saia.
