The suggestion that a limit be plac
ed on the amount the state may bor
row is a Rood thing, l.ct tile same
restrictions be I Hissed down to
counties, towns and- districts.

A bill to require *.11 vehicles using
the public highways at night to carry
lights has been introduces in the leg
islature. It this cannot be any bet
ter e^forc^d tluui the law requiring
automobiles to carry li^ht^ then it
is useless to write it into taw .
. Gov. Morrison hr.s askvd for ?'J,
000.000 to put into operation a sjjpuin
boat line for the State. This is about
the most unreasonable ? request we
have seen. It isn't so much the
freight rates frcm out the State as it
is those within the State thai hurts
cur business.
XeT IT -ire-tarp-ed th.rr
ty's representatives in the General
Assembly will pas;** a bilJ putting
Franklin county on a bounty unit ba
sis in road work. This would make
it possible to_yut more of the tax mon

less on the overhead

To the Editor: .1
As every layman -in the State has i
his pvt theories oi' government. espee- 1
ially that ai the State 1 shall take the ?
liberty to air mv views r.i -regard to a
few- mutters that com er.-; every gocu j
citizen of North Carolina, in tiie first1
place we ali complain cf the crime j
wave and at the same t!me encourage;
k by all means in our power. There!
is a certain class of people who seem,
to think that ail crime can be elimina
ted by moial suasion, when the facts J
are that some have criminal tendon- j
cies so strcngly implanted w thin them I
by .heredity- that there no more r
chance, to reform them than there is'
to reform 1 houid dog by go d advice ;
Just look at the automobile thieves, 1
i&e bandits, the ye^g.aen ct id omne i
genus that daily fiil our papers with '
most heincus crimes! So re contend
t?iat it is barbarous to pwntsh with
the rod or rope, 1 have lived seven
ty-six years and I know whereof I
i-peak. Before the War ??etween the
States we had the piilcry ?nd gallows, 1
and we did net average a case cf theft ^
in our courts once in fifteen yeart and
01.ee in a v.hile some* man v as kijled
b-** another in?<he heat of passion and
the killed tried for his life. Never
heard of such a thing as burglary and
crime at that day was only an infin
itisimal part of what it now fg. When
I was being brought up, children obey
ed tneir parents and now the parents
v-<obey th? children. No school teach
er was considered wortny of his posi
tion unless he was a good whiiJRe.-,
and when his parents round out nis
having had a flagellation at school,
tl.ey gave him another as a "aweeten
Now, if our coming Legislature
will only pass a law to make it a oapr
ital offense to hold up a man and rob
him, also whip .ill automobile thieves,
pickpockets, and the like, and not
make prison life too attractive, we
shall soon see the Ku Klux Klan with
er and die as a flower set In a desert.
Again as to the game taws. It we
do not protect th* quail the boll weevil
will destroy the cotton industry of the
South. Chickens, tjrKeys and quails
are the natural enemies of boll weevil
and if the hungry hound do$s did not
foeak_up their nests in laying Beason,
the boll weevil wouTd soon become a
l- on entity . We hav^such a game law
as it is but it la violated every day in
the year and we shall Boon have no
birds of any desrriptiDn to destroy the
emmnfc cotton pest of North Carolina.
With these few Bugge^ttonji I trust
that our solons at this Bessfbn of the
Legislature may pass some sort of
laws to put a stop to crime, bb it is
hereditary, and the State does no:
need a stock of people bred from its
worst men and women .

Importance of proper die*, in cases
of sickness. Preparing an <p adminis
tering the patient's food is an impor
tant part of the nurse'-a -work. Re
covery in many cases depe.ids more
upon proper food that! "upon medi
cine. The doctoj will tell you what
to give the patient; bui the more you
Enow about food, cooking md diges
tion, the more Intelligently you wilt
be able Ui carry out his orders.
Three kinds of diets. Diets for the
sick are classified as liquid, light, and
convalescent. Liquid diet consists
entirely of liquid food. In typhoid
fever, and sometimes in other cases
of severe illness, nothing but milk is
given for a long time. But usually
beef-Juice or beef-tea, broths, gruels,
and, in fevers, cooling drinks are in
cluded in liquid diet. Hot milk or
cocoa, given at night, induces Bleep;
tea and coffee are usually forbidden atj
all times, as too stimulating. Wine
( it liquor should never be given un
less prescribed by the physican.
L,ight diet is used In less severe
illness, or when a patient who has
been very sick begins to improve. It
includes everything belonging to a li
quid diet, and. in addition, soft-cooked,
eggs, soup, gelatin jellies, soft pud
dings, custards, fruit, and a little game
chicken, or tender meat.
Convalescent diet includ ;s all ordi
nary dishes except those particularly
difficult of digestion.) Tl?e change
from one diet to another, should be
made gradually. Below are given ex
amples of each of these three kinds
of diet.
M<juM diet for one day

Affer a very delightful vacation we
are back again with ail earnest de
sire and determination to make the
present terra tho best or the school
year and to make the year 1923 one oi
the most- successful years of our jtfe.
School opened Jan.' "3 with only a
little more than half of our enrollment
present but this number has been some
what increased this week^Twoagh many
of our pupils are still ab3ent on ac
count of sickness and other causes.
We wish all a speedy recovery and
hope that they may sojn be able to re
sume tlsclr work with us.
We are very sorry that two of pur
high school pupils Gray Bird and Ol
lie Jack Murphy have been unable to
attend school since Christmas on ac
count of the illness and death of their
parents, Mr. and Mrs. \V. B. Murphy,
who died last week with pneumonia.
The sympathy of the whole school
and community goes out to them in
their bereavement.
The Sunday school and B. Y. P. U.
of the Cedjir Rock Baptist church com
pleted their organization for the year
of 1&23, last Sunday. Most of the old
officials of each were re-elected and
we hope that they may make a great
success this year. The Sunday school
has recently attained the goal of being
one of the few standard Sunday schools
ln*T. C.
' The basket ball team which up to
the present time has been getting in
condition for the Spring term will like
ly have a full schedule this week with
probably two games on the home
court and one at Justice.
The Sophomore class play "Unac
quainted With Work" or "Married in
Thirty Days" will be rendered the sec
ond time in the high school auditorium
next Thursday night, Jan. 18, at 7:30.
This play was given night before the
Christmas holidays, but on account of
the weather and sickness In the com
munity only a small crowd was pres
ent. This is a new play of unusual
merit and is very popular not only
with ameteurs but professional play
ers. It Is a comedy from beginning
to end, but under this runs a current
of drama, which holds the Interest of
the audience. Although this play was
rendered before, under the great han
dicap of one character being absent
and another substituted within three
days. It was pronounced a tilt by the
small crowd present and there have
been Heveral requests that it be re.
ipeated. We hope to have some good
I music for the occasion and we also
I hope that' the people of the community
. win cooperate with the school and i<?Ve
I us a large crowd. Admission 25 and
35 cents.> 1

Routewivet who hive trouble
in keeping their refrigerators clean
and sanitary qhould use Red Seal
Lye. Just dissolve one tablespoon
ful of Red Seal Lye in a bucket of
water. This solution will clean
your refrigerator better than a big
bar of soap; not only will it be
shining clean, but it will be odor
less and absolutely sanitary. Red
Seal Lye means death to germs.
Washing clothes in ordinary
water is an extravagant
waste of soap. The best
way to save soap is to
first soften the water
with a liVtle Red Seal
Lye.
Red SeJl Lye is a
high test base. It Con
tains no filler or adul
teratlons whatsoever and will,
therefore, last , longer and work
quicker than ordinary lye.
Red Seal Lye will save you
money in many other ways. It
makes a splendid soap for kitchen
and laundry. Simply take one
large can of Red Seal Lye and
mi?r it with grease and water. No
