The other Democratic candi date for Governor, J. Melville i Broughton of Raleigh, will have three or four important announcements to make — one of them most interestirg and enlightening — in January.

Uiit we know tlicy’rc in ciir corner and expect they’ll bolii grt around to us after all this holi day rush. Have been anchored clowai with the flu during past several days and so haven’t paid much attention to news or even Ihe lack of it, .'o it w.-irm.' ‘.he lit tle corner whore wc live to hear from kind friends of this co lumn. I’m pretty certain wc tlcn’t r—nip olosp lo incn- tioning half the conimciit wc got, for very often someono will send in a renewal supscrip- tion, according to Mr. aieekin , th'e publisher, and will stick a line in uith it rc.ading, “Keep the Hermit coming,’’ and I ex pect some of ’em write “To hell with The Hermit,’’ hut so fur tha good publislier has kept all su^ stuff hid from this would be UTiter. A newspaper ain’t Ilka a radio in which they take a poll and come up with some f.ggors saying how many they got lissening at such and such a program. Newspaper publishers are more honest than that. They’ll tell you quicken a flash how many people buy their papers and one as interesting as the Coastland Times is us- uallv read from k’.vcr to klver, or folk.' wmiidn’t keep on buy ing it year after year. But the only way I know any-hing about who reads olil Hiram i.« when I get a note from the publisher with the letter from said reader, ll can tell you something I liopo the publi.'hor won’t mind about the Coasllan-'l Times. It has such a distinctive flavor of the s'‘a and of the Coasllan.1, that more peo-ple s.ibscribe t.i it out-'ii'c of the .state tbaa any other weekly paper pu’-.li-dcsl in this .rtale. When 1 firat started this mess for my old friends Vic Mcckins, the much loved father • of the prrsmt publisher, I was much aslon..'h- e.-i at the large amount of mail got from such places as Chienga. and New Jersey, to say nothing of Californeny and up an-l dowin the width and bre.adtli of Frcginny and the old North Slate. Nowadays I’m g'rtlng I’ke ol.d lady Spence that lived here t Head O’ Tl’.c River when i was a youagun. She was a fdd by and leave some mail, I’m about half mad about it. Same men write but most mail comes from the ladies and 1 expect that’s because they'i’C kinder than tho male of the .'poc.es. Some of ’em' think it's terrible to sleep with a pack of hounds to keep warm in winter. Incidentally, it snow.cl abcut an inch here at Head O’ The R.ver ju-'t before Christmas and it Uirnud so cold I slept under si: dogs. And cne gentle man suggested I get a couple of women here in place of all’. Il-amm, and I may do th.at if.. it get’s any colder. Only thing holding me back is all these c.vd rights bills. I dnitkor sleep with my hounds than have two female women cf dif- fovent ethnic backgrounds, and I won’t try it until 1 get a ruling on it from the nine old men. COURT (Continued from Page One) hit and run driving.

He said his boss, one “air. aicGuire,' had told hi'.n the flag was on the truck pro perly.
