like doing my work. It is hard to
tell how I feel, but I do not feel
good. I get awfully dizzy. I know
then that I had better take some
thing. After I found how good
Black-Draught is, that is what I

BEATTY IN CAGE AS
UON KILLS UONESS
Clev^and, Jan. 29.—In a sav
age battle to the death, a huge
, on them to make rustic pergolas
® rustic bridges, rustic seats, and
monin cement walks
for skating, etc. In some of the
parks they have tennis courts
and basket hall grounds, and
dutch ovens for picnics.
Are the Statesville children
better than the North Wilkesboro
children?
The Boy Scouts would be glad
to help.
We could even have two play
grounds, one with a rustic fence
around It for girls and smaller
children, with swing and slides,
all homemade. I’m sure our fac
tories would give us boards and
things. I believe everybody In
North Wilkesboro would help.
With a big work going on to
make the children happy and our
city beautiful, don’t you think
everybody In North Wilkesboro
will want to have a part In It and
see something they have helped
with become pretty parks and
playgrounds for ns to proudly
show to visitors and tourists?
Can you think of any other city
with so pretty a “frame" as
North Wilkesboro? With play
grounds and parks where all the
tangled bushes now are, we could
call our city a resort.
I think the swellest place for
a park Is around the swimming
pool. The skating road is already
there and the trees along the
river could be made into ru.stic
■seats and things. Wouldn’t it be
just swell?

The action of some cities and

skaters, is to be commended.
Children are going to skate.
i\nd it is not always children.
Many young men and women en

sidewalks. But the sidewalks are
rough in places, some of them
very rough. .\nd they don't get

whether it is against the law or
not. and there is an element of
