THE FRANKLIN TINES jonsoH, u.u l.M .? *' M THEAMERKAV Achrrrt Itinv Rcpf*M*UUrc press association ~? Entered at tli* Post Office at ijomSm NH. N. C., u second clue Better. Ehtj voter in FruUin Cbunty should go out to the polls next Tnf? day and vote. Republicans nationally admit that l hey will lose several seats, to Demo crats, hut claim 44 majority. We believe Hon. W. F. Evans has too much judgment to eater into a joint campaign with Mr. Brigx> or any one else. There is a plan on foot to create two re* offices (or Franklin County at a cost of around $4300. Mr. Taxpay er do you like it? Woe be unto the man or men who create any iflM^pfftces tn franklin County. r??ardleSNqf what kind ot promise is extended iff their favor. It looks to us like the tax payers of Franklin County Ittre to pay enough taxes without having to have new bur den. in the shape of new offices, to carry. It baa been impossible to fool the oM Board of Commissioners into es tablishing new offices in Franklin County, and we think K would be wise for the members of the new Board to be equally as alert. It you are in favor e^-eajimg your Senator and Representative more money then vote for the Amendment next Tuinday. If you are not in fav or of paying them more mooey then ' vote against the Amendment next i Tuesday. Vote anyway. If yo?-don"t < vote against it or for it. it will mean cne-halfa vote for it. * 1 If you want to increase the salar ies of the officers ot Franklin Conn- 1 ty then vote against salaries Tueo<lay. ' U you want to make the salaries smaller then vote for salaries next Tuesday. Your Senator and Repre- 1 seatative will reduce them to what is I I fair and reasonable, but if you vote ' against Lhem and^put the oiBces on fees you cannot expect any help from 1 them as you will put the matter out 1 of their hands and where they cannot. 1 help you. Vote what you want to do 1 or the other side may out vote you. 1 Every voter who is dissatisfied with the present salaries of their County cilices should study closely the figures we have given and are giving, so that you can act intelligently. There is no use .'cutting off your nose to spite your face'" by voting against salaries in the elecction this fall, when by so doing you will increase the salaries several thousand dollars. The time to take action aganst salaries was in the primary by nominating men to the leeslature who will put them back to where they were when the people ' ratified IhfflT This you have done. ] Kow vote for salaries. | WH AT WILL IT PAT I What will it pay? Frankly we don't know. Bat since 'he Question of 5*1 >ri? or fees has been raised to be set tled in tbe election this (all it put* It ia order to speculate on the pay of the several offices. From the figures ftwn last week the cost of tbe Regis ter of Deeds and Clerk of tbe Courts office* is about understood, especially so when the figures (inn in another column in regard to the Register of Deeds office is considered Now the speculation has turned to tbe Sheriff's office. In RiTtm this speculative problem we don t want any one to con- 1 ?t rut it lo mean any discuss ioa of Kberiff Henry A. Kearney, wbo we consider a nest excellent officer and Mgfc toned palltin. nor any < else, but Just Hcnres. subject to iunM by any one who ulibts I any way desired.

Honesty (By Ixln Leonard, 9th tirade) Honesty is one of the most impor tant parts of our life. Without be ing honest we cannot hope to be a real success, though we may attain ?aterial wealth through dishonesty. For f we stand out in this world and not be honest It will not be long be fore oeople will ssy. "Oh! yon need not depend on that person for any thing for ho is always trying to cheat Hmp one by trading an old buggy or old horse, or In some other way." And this is true In our education. If we start out without being honest, and not studying during school hours, and sit and laugh or talk and not pay at tention on class, when examination time comes we aro at a loss; snd we us nally try to sit with some one that has worked ralthfnlly all the year and see low much we can cheat, this Is not honest; and if we are not honest in cmr school work wo are liable not to be honest in other things. For It is ike little things that count, as they will lend. to larger things.

I Very few married couple* dance cheek to cheek. FOURTH REUXIOX On October 25th, 1922 at the home of the late W. A. Moore, near Seven Paths, we enjoyed the fourth family reunion of the sons, daughters, grand children and great grandchildren of Mrs. W. A. Moore in celebration of ber 74th birthday. There are seven cons and two daughters living and all were present except one son. There were present forty grandchildren, ten great grandchildren and a nurrfber of relatives. Rev. G. W. May, a former pastor, his wife and son, and two of the teachers ct Seven Paths. A bountious dinner for all was pre pared by ihe children and served in the beautiful oak grove.* The writer, when dinner was announced, quoted some scripture and led a Blurt prayer of thanks for the home and family and its id??als. After dinner the <Jioir sang several beautiful hymns ant! engaged in social enter-course, for the uplift cf families arid community, church and school . It was a day long to be remember ed. There were many romo.iiscences of the past that were very pleasantly recalled. ..Its a fine Bpirit that pro. ?duces such days to make light the oares of the aged, and reveals to par ents the fact that even though child ren are in the thick of life's struggles they still have a care for those who have already borne the burdens and heat of life's Rattles, -and are W&itlng tc cross over the stream and rest on the other shore. It seems that life might d** made poyful to old people by such thoughtfulneBs on the part of the children of many homes through oat our land. May many more such days be the lot of the mottfer, bereft of her com panion. G. W. MAY. We were not aware that they had settled the question of who won the war, but it may be significant to note that Europe has about agreed upon v, ho should pay for it. ?
