THE GLEANER IBBUKD EVERY THURSDAY. J. D. KERNODLE, Editor. iftoOA YEAR, IN ADVANCE. The editor will oot be responsible for /lews eq pressed by correspondents. Entered at toe Postofflce attiraham, N. C.,os second class matter. GRAHAM, N. C., Jan. 16, lOl'O SCHOOLS AND SEWERAGE. On next. Tuesday Graham will vote on two very important propo sitions: One authorizing the issuance of $50,000 in bonds for remodeling and enlarging the Graded School building and adding other depart ments, and for providing better school facilities for tho colored peo ple. The other for SIOO,OOO in bonds to provide an adequate sew erage system for the town. These arq two of tho necessities for modern communities. No town can hope to keep pace with the de mands of the day without good schools and a,sanitary sewerage sys tem. Of these for a town of the size of Graham it would be difficult to de cide which is thr more important unless both aro. The children must be educated to equip and prepare them for the battle of life; to give them an op portunity to do the best of which they are capable. Hence the town as a community must provide ample facilities for the education of. all of \ta children. No one who would have an enlightened and intelligent citizenship can afford to do other wise than vote for school bonds. Health is of prime importance to enable a person or people to perform well all the services that may and might b« required,. Sewerage will help immensely to conservo and pro mote the general health—therefore * vote for the seweruge bonds. Attention is called to the report ot ths engineers on the lirst page of this paper. The viewß of President Wilson and Col. William Jennings liryun upon the I'eice Treaty and League of Nations at tho Jackson Day din ner wore very much at variance. Some suggested that Col. llryan was bidding for another nomination for President. Hut he has since said in understandable terinH that he is no more in the running. 1 North Carolina Republicans aro boosting Judge Jeter C. Pritchard for President. The Republicans want to break up the solid South, but they wont experiment by naming s Southern Republican as their can didate for President.

Elon College, Jan. 14.—The El on delegation to the Des Moines Convention gave a very vivid ami interesting account of the convention at a special mass moeting of the students this . afternoon. Dr. N. G. Newman, college pastor, who also attend ed the convention, spoke of his experience, and presented as the first 'speaker Miss Janie Angel.' Miss Angel told "particularly of the trip side of the convention and of its largeness. She was followed by Mr. J. W. Fix, who, during tho convention, became a volunteer for the Y. M. C. A. work in foreign fields. He spoke of his experiences in the convention and of its high spirit ual tone. The third speaker was Miss Juana Pinnix who spoke of the Des Moines people as hosts and of the aftermath of the great convention. Announcement was made to day of the fact that Elon Col lege is to participate to the ex tent of at least 8300,000 for new buildings in the Men and Mil lions Forward Movement of the Christian church. The field . secretary of this movement is Rev. J. O. Atkinson, 1). I)., of this place, and there are asso ciated with liini three other sec retaries. The plan is to make an every-member-canvaßS and raise a minimum of 880 per member over a period of fivo years for general benevolences of the church. This is said to lie the largest per capita finan cial campaign over undertaken by any protestant church. There is great rejoicing here that the collegers to enter so liberally in this campaign and especially so since it has just recently con cluded a campaign of its own 1 which netted it in the neighbor hood of 8100,000 in casli and subscription.! for the permanent endowment funds. —SALESMEN WANTED to so licit orders for lubricating oils, greases and paints.

Such young folks are continually unhappy and dejected simply be cause they accept such a condi tion as their misfortune, and envy their friends who are in the bloom of health, and enjoying all the good thiogs of life. If .such young women' would realize that their aueinic condi tion is probably due to i.liiu, im poverished blood, which could easily bo enriched by Gude's Pepto-Mangan, how much happier and attractive they wonld be Gude's Pepto-Mnugau is a safe, beneficial and pleasant tonic for anyone suffering from any ail ment caused by poor blood. If taken regularly for a few weeks it will enrich the blood with thou 'sauds of the heathy red-blood cells that are needed to carry nourish ment to every part of the body. Pepto-Mangau is sold in both liquid and tablet form, lioili contain the same medicinal ingre dients. Buy Pepto-Mangau at your druggist's. Uo sure the name "Glide's" is on the package. With out ''Gude's" it is not Pepto- Mangati. This is a democratic country, and even dignified courts hum the once popular air "keep the home lires burning." A dollar doesn't go as far as it once did, but it finds its way back to tho same old crowd of big busi ness men. Don't worry.
