Melville Broughton early this week. “Notice of my candidacy has been filed with the Board of Elections. “It is still more than six months before the primary and I do not con template beginning at this time any intensive campaign. The grave and , disturbing international and domestic , problems of the moment are such as to make untimely and undesirable any long-drawn-out political contest. “In the course of the campaign next spring, I shall endeavor to visit every section of the State and will discuss the problems of greatest con cern to the people of the State and nation. ■ “During my term of' office as Gov ernor of North Carolina I endeavored to serve the people of the State to the best of my ability. That record is before the people. Education, public health, agriculture and the industrial development of the resources of the State were the subjects to which I gave particular emphasis. The pro gress made is a matter of record. On this record and upon a pledge of con tinued, active interest in these and other causes of vital concern, I shall confidently submit my candidacy to the people. “The people of the State will de termine whether or rrot my experience and service as Governor, legislator and in other public capacities qualify me to serve as their representative in the Senate of the United States. My campaign will be addressed to the people. Gubernatorial appointment, under the statute, has filled the tem porary vacancy caused by death; but only the people by their votes can decide who will represent them in the Senate for the full term. “If I am nominated and elected, as I confidently expect to be, I will owe no allegiance except to the people. To their service and to the national welfare I will dedicate all the en ergy and ability that I possess.” Up-County Citizens Seeking Repairs To Mavaton-Tyner Road Petition Signed By 71 Citizens Affected By Conditions Chowan County Commissioners were presented a petition from up county citizens Monday in which com- NOTICE DANCE Every Saturday Night 8 to 12 P.M. at Roduco Music Furnished By The Lassiter Boys > Os Aulander Admission— sl.oo per Couple Stanly Carter, Mgr.

Sentinels of Health I Don’t Neglect Them! Nature designed the kidneys to do a marvelous job. Their task is to keep the flowing blood stream free of an excess of toxic impurities. The act of living —life itself —is constantly producing waste matter the kidneys must remove from the blood if good heath is to endure. When the kidneys fail to function as Nature intended, there is retention of waste that may cause body-wide dis tress. One may suffer nagging backache, persistent headache, attacks of dizziness, getting up nights, swelling, puffiness under the eyes—feel tired, nervous, all worn out. Frequent, scanty 01 burning passages are sometimes further evidence of kid ney or bladder disturbance. The recognized and proper treatment is a diuretic medicine to help the kidneys ?et rid of excess poisonous body waste. Tse Doan’s Pills. They have had more than forty years of public approval.
