THE GLEANER ISSUED KVEKY THURSDAY. I. D. KERNODLE, Editor. $1.00 A YEAR, IN ADVANCE. Kutered at ttie PostoBlou at Urabam. N. 0.. aa asconii-dlaaa matter. GRAHAM, N. C., SEPT. 15, 1927. ONE DOLLAR AND 70 CENTS. A levy of *1.70 on the *100 valuation of real and personal property for taxes has been made by the Commissioners of Alamance county. Lots of money is necessary to do big things and do them well. Good roads and good bridges cannot be built and maintained without the expenditure of large sums of money. These are vital conveniences that the l>eople need and must have to keep pace with the progress of the present day and age. The schools, too, must be maintained. The youth must be educated and equipped to have a fair show in the race of life. Competent trained teach ers and good'equipment, housed in comfortable buildings where the best instruction can be given are needed and must be had. *? All of tnese cost large sums of money. Every dollar that the people delve and toil and sweat for and save by self-denial and rigid economy to live and pay thein taxes into the public treasury should be made to do its duty to the last cent. The same care and forethoulit should be ' exercised in the spending of public money that one uses in the expenditure of his own money. "The people be damned" policy will be short-lived and soon come to grief. The individual who essays to provide a good home and con veniences for himself and fam ily counts the cost; reduces ex penses wherever possible and economizes. The same common sense rules should apply to pub lic matters. Is the county economizing wherever it can? Are there more employees than are necessary to do th( county's work? Are there too many people holding jobs at the expense of the taxpayers? Could efficient service be hac for less money? Is the county's ? business, in every department and detail be ing looked after and scrutinized by those who are receiving pa) for such service? The foregoing and otliei questions are being asked They are pertinent and mus be answered without evasion. Surfaced Highways. North Carolina ranks twenty eighth in size and fourteenth ic population but only seven states rank ahead of us in the numbei of miles of surfaced highways maintained by the state. Furth erroore, only eight states rani ahead of us in the number o miles of surfaced roads maintain ed by local governments, whicl happen t9 be counties in frortt Carolina." The United States Bu reau of Public Roads reports that on January 1* 1926, North Caro lina had 6,311 miles of state-con structed and state maintained surfaced highways, and 14,70? miles of surfaced highways main tained by counties. This refer; to a year and a half ago. Th< mileage of surfaced highways ha< been increased considerably dur ing the last eighteen months, and due to the rapidity with which we are constructing state and lo cal highways it is very probable that our rank is higher now thai at that time. Progressive poultry growers ar< planting some green stuff for th< poultry to grass upon tikis winter I Did You Ever Stop To Think 1 (Copyright 1927) By Edson R. Waite, Shawnee, Okla. David Gibson, publisher of the Lorain (Ohio) Journal, says: That advertising is the labor saving machinery of sales. It bears exactly the same re lation to distribution as the au tomatic machine does to pro duction. Any device by which a mer chant, for instance, can increase his volume on top of his over head?rent, light, heat, clerk hire, etc , and which is relative ly fixed, why, the gross p to fit on the additional volume be comes net profit! In this sense, advertising is not an expense; it is a short time investment, and the divi dends are large in converting gross profit into net profit! This principle will apply to and profit the department store, the department of the depart ment store, the specialty store and even the little fellow fixing clocks up stairs or pressing clothes down stairs and along Main Street. All forms of advertising are good?they all produce on cer tain laws of averages; yet re sults considered, newspaper ad^ vertising is the cheapest form of advertising! It is the one sure means by which the merch ant can extend a knowledge of his goods, his prices, his service, out from the shelves and walls of his store and into the households of a community for a leisurely sell ing audience with mother, father, and their sons and daughters, every day, before the fire in winter and on the porch in summer and for all their wants and needs.
