To those who shall study the market conditions and the reports now appearing in the financial and industrial columns of aMy edited and honorably conducted journals, of which there are very many in the United States, it cannot but be apparent that the depression is passing rapidly, and the coun try is now entering upon another season of prosperity. But we, here in Goldsboro, do not need to go to the country at large for evi dence of prosperity's presence. It is manifesting itself on every side in our community. When eveT in the whole his tory of Goldsboro, were so many big things being done at one time that trend to the building of a great city ?

Twenty, thousand briek a day are being laid in the erection of" the four new buildings of the Eastern Hospital, over beyond the new depot; while a force of men are busy at work on the imposing 25,000 Jacobi Memorial Building for the Odd Fellows' State Or phanage at their beautiful homes for the orphans and the indigent of their order, on our Eastern suburb, and all over the city are Argus o'er the people's rights an eternal vigil keep ; aOLDSBOBO, K.

During the year .that now drawing to a clse -known else where as the 4 'panic" year some of the , most beaiitiful residences and imposing public buildings in the city we erected, notably among the latter are thenew home of the National Bank, &t the cor. ner of John arod Walaattt streets : the new Odd Fellows" building,on John street ,; while the Utility Manufacturing .plant, that pays out in operative pay roll alone near $1,000 a week, was started up during 1908, as was also the new and -commodious plant of the GoldsboKQ Steam Xaundry. The Axgus could not in its nor mal issue .print the pictures of the buildings constructed in Golds borojduiang 1908 -the panic year; but ,we are printing to-day the picture of the -.new Union Passen ger Station, as it stands to view at the west end of Walnut street, and the picture of the Jacobi Me morial Building (now under con struction) as 3t will stand com pleted aiear ithe eastern extension j 0f Ash sstreet, on the Odd Fellows State Orphanage property, mear beautiful Herman Park.

And, too, as the best of all evi dence of the substantial and abid ing basis upon which Goldsboro is built is the stability of her banking institutions, that during the passing of the months of the panic, year adhered cheerfully to the casfvsystem, and never even suggested, bhef probability of scrip payment, , honoring every check presented to them, whether of de positors or commercial exchange. Is there seriously any room for the "knocker" in Goldsboro, in the face of these unprecedented achievements dating the year now closing, and . the active develop ments that are being promoted, and the assurance of paved streets and improved public highways leading to our city ? uon't oe a Knocicer j" ne an optimist if you stay in Golds boro. or else be a tramp and "move on."

Editob Aboci, eldsboro contaias no institution to which we can point with mora pardon able pride than onr Goldsboro Graded Sohosl. Ably administered since its dasational schema has been ever Tig. ilantly guarded and systemrtically un folded, always keeping abreast of the times. There is, ' hewevsr, one element - sentlal to the proper growth ol any school or callage that has been with us until recently either underestimated or else completely lost sight of namely the derelopment of a school spirit, that awakening ot thefstudent's interest tor ideas whish are neither in the school enrriculum, nor commonly accepted as ednoational,- and yet are naturally a necessary part of school life. Many oi as doubtless remember those interesting pages of last year's High School Magaelne edited and contributed to entirely by High School students. This enterprise was a source of much inspiration, ot great practical Talue, and should by all mean 8 be continued and encouraged. The victorious HigTi School baseball team ot last spring, and the present valiant High School foot ball team have furnished to the students not only amnsenenit.'bnt enthusiasm and real benefit such, perhaps, as could have no other form of aport. Awd. "while it is conceded by our leadtng -educators that the play grounds of out -schools and athletic fields of our colleges are 'the reserve lorce for men tal activity-, the veryjfount from which knowledge is matured; how many of s Tealizewbat the interest in these games means to the growth ot a strong comradatiipanci a genuine school spirit. No better illustration may be had of I 'the way -a similar spirit and entbusi asm takes possession of an entire com munity than that Which actually seiz ed Goldsboro during our last summer baseball -season. . Whether or not we are fond of baseball, the fact remains that mo recent occurrence has brought to the surface suh a a burst of civic pride, iudioative of the real Goldsboro pntt; Tke 'proper development and direction of such spirtt would augur m uuh for the future Welfare of Greater Goldsboro. Our students of today will in the lull ', ness of time join the ranks of citizen hfip. Should we not therefore ioster and encourage in every way we can their Interest and ardor for healthful pastimes, so that they will then come to us with a spirit more fully aroused and a better understanding ot " their duty to the community I LIONEL VTB1L. Tbe Senth's Opportunity at Haed. Baltimore Manufacturers' Record. With the political agitation out of ihe way, with business reviving, the South has the greatest opportunity which it ever facedflfor big, broad de relopment. With the United States Mteel Corporation . in Alabama, the South has the most powerful influence in the world for the building up ol its iron and steel interests. With a re awakened appreciation of the needs for broad . railroad expansion and, therefore, a more friendly legislative spirit prevailing, the South ought now to enter upon the broadest railroad and industrial development period which it has ever enjoyed. .

That the most important reaalt ae complished by the national prosperity association, organized to hasten the re turn ef prosperity "is the change is public sentiment towards railroad and large corporatlens, especially in the South and Seuthwest," is the de claration ef E. C. Simmons, president of the national prosperity association, who has made public a letter which he sent to all the members ef the associa tion announcing the completion of its work. .After stating that the organisa tion obtained results for better than had been expeoted, Mr. Simmons de clares that among the moat important results achieved was the visit to Presi dent Roosevelt "which resulted in his not sending any more messages to Congress or doing anything that had the appearance at being an attack upon railroads or other large corporations. " Continuing, Mr. Simmons says: " 'Muck rakers' have ceased to shew their head, 'demagogues' have quit talking and a very healthy state et mind prevails towards these indus tries; whereas previously to our work there was a vioous antagonism clearly evident among the masses of the peo ple, most of whom held their views or opinions without giving the subject proper thought. . - "We confidently believe that the work of the association has In great, measure prepared the commercial mind of this country for the quick re turn of a full measure of prosperity J BOY TORTURED BY AWFUL Almost Covered with Eczema N0( Night's Rest for Nearly a Year Feared Lifelong Disfigurement All Treatments Failed and Limit of Endurance Seemed Near PERFECT RECOVERY IS DUE TO CUTICURA' "With the exception of his hands and feet, my son Clyde (thirteen, years old) was almost completely covered with eczema, Physicians treated him for nearly a year without helping him any. While they were very kind? and did all in their power, yet nothing seemed to re lieve him. And I had tried many rem edies sent to me by kind friends but they all failed. His head, face, and neck were covered with large scabs which he would rub until they fell off. Then blood and matter would run out and that would bo worse. Many a time he looked as if his ears would drop off. Friends com ing to see him said that if he got well he would be disfigured for life. " When it seemed as if he could pos sibly stand it no longer, I decided to try Cuticura. I bought a cake of Cuti cura Soap, a box of Cuticura Ointment, and a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent. 1 used them in the evening and that was the first night for nearly a year that he slept. This may sound exaggerated to you, but in the morning" there was a great change for the better. In about six weeks you could not have told that he had ever had anything wrong with him. I treated him twice a day for six months and at present he has a fine complexion and not a scar on his body. This story may seem overdrawn, but neither words nor pen can describe Clyde's suffering and now he looked. Our leading phy sician, Dr. , recommends the Cuti cura Remedies for eczema.

Frequent shampoos with Cuticura Soap . and weekly dressings with Cuti cura stop falling hair, remove crusts, scales, and dandruff, destroy hair para sites, soothe irritated, itching surfaces, stimulate the hair follicles, supply the roots with nourishment, loosen the scalp skin, and' make the hair grow upon a sweet, wholesome, healthy scalp, when all other remedies fail.
