THE CHATHAM RECORD, PITTSBORO, N. C. Cfre ci;atl)amJgtcorD " DEMOCRATIC Established in 1878 byHTA. London. Entered 'at Pittsboro, N. C, as Second Class mail matter by an Act of Congress. SUBSCRIPTION : One Year .$1.00 Advertisements 25c per inch Net. Foreign Advertising Representative THE AMERICAN PRESSASSCgtATION Colin G. Shaw, Editor and Owner Friday, December 2, 1921 JUST BUSY, THAT'S ALL. For several weeks past the deputies, special officers and the sheriff himself have had just about all they could do to check up and get in shape to collect taxes preparatory for the sheriff to make a settlement. Therefore there has been little time to de vote to the attention of the blockader, but woe be unio him nevertheless. There is time ahead and the whole force wll very soon cover the county like the frost and the manufacturer of booze will be languishing in prison. All the stills in Chatham coun ty have not been captured, neith er have the manufacturers and sellers, but they will eventually be eliminated from Chatham just so sure s.s the sun shines. It is time for the sinners to listen, else they will receive the same reward as have those folks who are now serving time on the chain gang, Just because a few cases have bean delayed is no cause for the violator to feel se cure with his sin, because every one cannot attain a favorable consideration or be established in popular circumstance. Sentiment is the foundation of ever j healthy law, ard there is enough good, strong sentiment and determina tion among the Christian men and women in Chatham county to back up ihe officers. Watch and see. ABOUT BIRDS. The editor has received a letter from Siler City, written on a typewrite", mailed in a plain en velope and signed a "Chatham Sportsman." He takes issue with us on our editorial in last week's issue in regard toprotectmg the birds. The writer says he his never met the editor but is our friend and backs us up in the crusade against liquor but feels inclined to believe that "the screws are already tight" on the bird question. Then the Raleigh Time9 compliments our venture on the question, placing us just behind the Asheville papers in protecting the "chickens." Well, everybody is not of the same no tion, is what Squire Hiram said when he kissed the cow. We appreciate friendly criticisrr, although our friend conceals his identity, yet we are convinced that unless the partridges are protected a little more securely for awhile, negroes and editors in a few years will be deprived of that lucious 4 'on toast. ' ' STOMACH GLEANER. The Examiner, published in Los Angeles, gives out the in formation that prohibition au thorities are to be asked to pay for repairs on the sewer lines in that city. The damage caused was the result of pouring home made whiskey through them. All the booze that had been cap tured there for some time was poured through them and in a few days it was found that the liquid had entirely eaten out the piping. Therefore, you folks that use this illicit liquor can( readily see that it is pretty good for stomach cleaning. Then, too, you may be as fortunate as the old negro over in Kinston the other day. After taking a drink of it, he threw his hands to his head, called for help and fell over dead. How Big New York Grocery Firm Keeps Down Rats. Vroome & Co., Butter & Cheese Merchants, New York City, says; 'We keep RAT-SNAP in our cel lar all the time. It keeps down rats.
