Entered at Pittsboro, N.C., as Second Class mail matter by act of Cortgress. SUBSCRIPTION: One Year, $1.50. Six Months, .75 Advertising, display, 25c. Inch Net. Colin G. Shaw, Owner and Editor. Chas. A. Brown, Associate Editor. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1922 SWEET ENOUGH TO BE SURE. o WISE AND OTHERWISE o O Some Our'n Some Their'n o O . O O O 0 0 0 O O 0 0 0 'Reflect upon the enevitable effects'' is the statement being ser.t out all over the United States by the Suar Asociation of New York City. The purpose of this circular is to feive a few facts andfigures relative to tar iff as pased by Congress a few days ago: According to the summary gotten out by this Association the tariff on sugar will be the highest it has reached for 32 years; that the cost of sugar through the total tariff imposed will be elevated at least 2c per pound, $2 per bag, $7 per barrel, or $10 each year for the average family of five. The total cost being $220,000,000 to Amer ican consumers. A tariff of this character is calcula ted to make the cost of living higher while the tendency of every individu al and corporation as well, is striving to bring it down. It adds burdens to the poor people and enricehs the al ready wealthy by leaps and bounds and doesnot contribute any apiecia able advantage to a nation. This paper does not presume to sad dle this condition on any political par ty. But we venture the assertion that politics is at the root of it, whether it emanates from the Grangers, Green backers, Tallyho, Peruvian or Ple bian or just plain hood-winkers, and it is an outrage that should bSTemedied. Just so long as politicians of any par ty get in power sufficient to make it hard on the poor, hard working indi viduals of these United States, the same conditions will prevail. Let us refer vou to our editorial of last week on "Intelligent Voting." Folks, "lokk well to your ballot." STICK TO IT HENRY. One day recently Congress forgot and done some work. O The majority make the laws and the minority ignore them. O They say faint heart never won fair ladv. Faint heart was lucky. O Nothing is so likely to make Amer ica dry as some of tne stuff that is now being sold. O- Our idea of an optimist is a man I who buys his hair tonic from a bind headed barber. O We remember when a drug ttore j handled drugs and a girl that used j paint was talked about. O . ' If Ford should put up hisfactory in Russia, as planned, they would prob ablv call the flivver Fullobumpski. O Its not always truo, but lots of time you can tell what kind of a husband a man is after you have seen hi wife. 0 A writer in one of the daily paper's says let's have clean movies. That's right, quit throwing peanut hulls on the floor. O Well, the soldier bonus is alright, so far as we aie able to figure it out, but Mr. Harding is unable to figure who is to pay the bill. O Statistics show that the average American uses 130 pounds ofsilt each year. Yet most any girl will tell you that some fellows are too fresh. O The camping act is just like falling out of a baloon. You do it once. The only, tiling that would take you out to the lonesome a second time would be six mourners. If every corporation, Company and individual that employs labor, would follow the rule established by Henry Ford, the enforcement of prohibition would be a minor consideration, and it must come to that before it will be effective, it begins to look that way, at least. Ford served notice upon the 70,000 employees of his Detroit factory that they must leave intoxicants alone or seek employment elsewhere than in his plant. He has stated that any one of the employees whose breath may betray the presence of liquor, or who is found to be carrying liquor into the plant, or anyone that is known to keep it in the home, will be dis mised without ceremony. "The eightenth amendment is a part of the fundamental law of this country. It was meant to be enforced. Politics has interferred with enforce ment of this law, but so far as our or ganization is concerned it is going to be enforced to the letter," says Mr. Ford to his employes. Mr. Ford knows that he canot reas onably expect an honest and efficient day's work from a man whose vitality is drained and whose brain is addled by booze ;and he is too good a business man to be willing to tolerate the con stant hazard of damage claims aris ing out of accidents caused by men made irresponsible through drink. He is right in his position and we hope there may be -man. others to follow his example. BENNETT AND THE FAIR. For the Community Fair exhibits, I have appointed Emerson Jones to se lect his own aids in farm and field crops. W. A. Ward to bring up the Bennett wood work and timber specimen, and in this line G. P. Bray has promised to furnish an inch cut off the stump of a forest pine recently blown down by a storm on his place, which meas ured forty inches at the butt and made 3,500 feet of lumber. When the butt cut off this tree, came into Bennett, on a big boiler mqving truck, pulled by Fordson tractors, it reminded the writer of a remark made by old Jesse Hare, in Yadkin county, in 1868. Jesse said he hauled the largest load of hay he ever seen in Yadkin .county, being of such immense proportions that it darkened Yadkinville as he came through. Had the Lord not up rooted this pine it would be still standing, for Mr. Bray, . like many others, seems to be saving all he can for the children of his great-great grand children. The Bennett millers have promised to have specimens of their products ready. Mrs. M. M. Hammer has charge of all the women and all they are to do. Our start was late but if we work we can have a showing worth while. All should come in to Bennett by noon Saturday, September 30. Bring what you have and let's de cide on the best and start for the Fair grounds. Don't forget it. H. A. DENSON. NEWS FROM BEAR CREEK RT. 3. Bear Creek, Rt. 3, Sept. 25.
