If there was ever any doubt by
the more humane element of man
kind or any other source for that
matter as to "man's inhumanity*
to man." it seems about time to
dispell it.
It would be a difficult task for
any one to give a just an*J correct
estimate of the real man. Prof.
E. L. Best, but the neare'st ap
proach to t'hat is contained I
think in the splendid editorial
tributes of the FRANKLlN TIM
ES. and t'he two Charlotte pap
ers, the Observer and the News.
The TIMES article giving ex
pression to the useful "life work
. and passing of one of Franklin's
i best beloved sons, was a fitting
tribute to be appreciated by all.
Aside from having formerly
served with pleasure on one of
his School Boards, and as one of
the very many who knew Mr.
Best' well, the writer was truly
saddened with them, in his unex
pected death.

gentleness When taken as directed.
It contains "pleasant - tasting aro
matic*, carminatives and what is
known by medical authorities as a
gastro-lntestinal tonic-laxative. It
helps tone sluggish bowel muscles.
Dr. Hitchcock's Laxative Powder
costs less than lc a dose. * Get It at
