Proprietor. 0ARL QOEKCH ????.??? Editor. WASHINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA, SEPT. 21, 1915. While the bankers in Now York aro worrying over that billion dollar loan, most of us down here are worrying over that two-bita that the fellow acro?8 the street owes us. "And still they come. Entries of students in the schools and col legeo of North Carolina," proclaims the Now? and Observer. It might have substituted "bill collectors," with an even greater degree of truth. Aurora is making rapid stride* in progress. The little city is backed by a number of public-spirited citizens, who are determined to pu?h it into the lime light. We noticed the name of "Dumba" in yesterday's iasue,of the New? and Observer. If We are not misiaken, that name ha.* appeared 1? it* editorial column once before. WHAT REALLY COUNTS IN LIFE. In these times of money'mak i ug, when practically ev<^- man U seeking to eurieh hitusclf a* rapidly and as greatly as possible, it > somewhat an unusual occurence to encounter a man who cares ab solutely nothing for wealth, power or position, but who, ou the other hand, i* devoting lii? entire life to the uplift of his fellow men and is concerned only in their welfare aud existence. Both these men star: out in life under the HOiue circumstances and environments, Imt they .-ooli drift apart. The one enters a bus iness career. He sees men ou all sides of him greedily striving to secure all the money they can. aud he follow.?, their example. Hi* only ambition is MONEY. Ho works for it during the daytime an ! lie dream* of it at night. His ?oul aud body are obsessed with thai ono idea?MONEY. He acquires it. l?e increases it. and finally, when old aire is upon him. his ambition is realized. lie has wealth, lie ha* position. He has power. The other man. in his youth, l>cgins the study of his fellows. Hi enters die ministry. Hi* only ambition is to save the souls of hi.* riock. He works roust an t ly to this end. He gitet what little money he ha* to aid the poor. He *its at the bedside of the sick and dying. Kinally? when old age comes, ho is as poor in worldly goods as he was in his youth. He lives from hand to mouth. He is derided by many. The first, in the eyes of the world, is considered a SUCCESS. The other is termed a FAILURE. But are thev i KEEPING IT WITH THE STYLES. f)u? "f the most ridiculou* ami wasteful customs in the world to dav is "keeping up with the styles." It is the- bait that is offered i-v tin- business nun to extract hiH-rnrnciJ nionov nut of the hand of the public. "Yon may a? well l?c dead a? out of style," is the motto adopted bv prakticni)v everyone. KY EHYT1II Xfi changes in style. One year the women air wearing flowing gowns, and tin- next it doesn't tak- half a yard to make them a skirt. One year tin* men aro wearing l?*?se. baggv rrouaers. ami tin- next they arc wearing them skin-light. One year rho hats an- small and narrow, ami rho next they are largo ami wid*?. One year an automobile has .?harp, abrupt lines, and the mxt it ;s a marvel of pleasing curves. Wagons change, houses change. boats change, eatable? change, furniture changes, hearses change and cof tiiih change. There is hardly a thing in line today that dnem't change in style by tomorrow. Will a woman, wlH#*prid?*s herself on her appearance, l?e seen on the streets in a flowing dress, when tight skirts are in vojfiie? .Not no's yon could noiira it. Will a man 1>m seen today, parading in a coat rliat conic* to his knees and peg-top trousers? Not on your lifa. They've got to keep up with the styles. They discard clothing, fur niture or jewelry that may lie perfectly serviceable, for the latest mode* und fashions.

The merchants an- expecting a l?ig business and i hey have loaded their -?tore? with a large variety of merchandise. Knt the thing bat counts is, "l>o the iieoplc of the citv know what von hav?- to -idl them ?" THAT particular point will determine to a large extent the volume of business that is done by the ditferentj TnerchsntH of the city. If they KNOW they can get some special article at Smith A' Co., they are not going to take the trouble of going to .lone, K' Co. and ASK I NO him if he keeps it. The people t??lav are more and more falling into the luibit of "shopping by advertisement.'* If Mrs. Black is going to start out in the morning to huv herself n new fall suit, she picks up the |>ipnr to see if there are any advertised. If she notices the advertisement she seeks, she will make a memorandum of the store's name and will make it her first stop on her rounds on the morrow. In this way she not only saves a go? m I deal of time, but she knows that she will get snactlv what she has seen advertised and will he saved consid erable inconvenience and delay in making known her wants.

While the young men enjoyed having her with them for a good time, and while they felt proud to be seen in her company, still, when it came to asking a woman to march with them, arm in arm, through life, they did, verily, hunt for the quiet little damsel, who had a reputation for makiug biscuits and who knew the diferenco between frying a piece or porterhouse steak and boiling potatoes for supper.

The big banks keep a close watch on businoss conditions in th? South because of their immense interest involved in Southern pros perity or depression. They make it a custom to send their keenest :.bscrvers South to get at the situation first hand about condition*. Keccntly Mr. Beverly D. Harris, vice president of the National City Hank. New York, the largest banking institution in America, ha* U-eu ou a tour of inspection in twelve states. Mr. Harris was impressed with tlie improve?! conditions every* ?.vhere he went. He declares that the most striking thing in the present situation is the remarkable contrast with conditions pre vailing a year ago. lie observed practically every phase of South i i ll conditions, even to the methods of living as well as business, blinking, agriculture, etc. He declares that everything has worked -lowly back to normal, and lie sees in the future much improved iiitthods and increasing prosperity. One thing that impresses Mr. Harris is the slowing down of the Smthcrn people in the manner of living, lie says they had been going it too fast, but the war compelled them to economise, so that rliey will be in much better shape for the era of prosperity upon which tliin country i* entering.?Wilmington Star. SLOWLY?CAREFULLY. Cotton is now selling at the healthy figure of teu cents a pound, ..ud over. We have hopes that it is going to climb far above ten i-cuts. But we are advertent to the old-time declaration that "cot tou is a darned fool" and it may switch on us. Yet the signs right now are the other way. Succeeding reports show that the condition of cotton is deteriot iJig. weather conditions being reported .bad in Texas, and the boll m ?evil busy in Georgia. Wo have heretofore expressed the belief that the 1915 crop would fall way below the 11,800,000 bales esti mated by the government, and wo arc not surprised that there are estimates being made that the crop will be around 10,000,000 hales. If that becomes clear we may expect tho price to climb. From many quarters there comes the advice to the fanner? to hold for twelve cents. Whatever is done wo advise thnt with cotton at Mi rents the crop be marketed slowly and carefully, that in every -'.ction there lie co-operation atnong the farmers so that the inarkei may not lie glutted.

Several years ago Florida wakod up to the .realization of the fact that with all her advantages, they were unavailable without good i'?ad*. The spots and sections which devoloped were those with #?.**1 roads, the most positive proof that it is modem highways that attract settlers and tourists, for the reason that they mako tho place* which they reach more accessible and advantageous, especially for homeseekers. Really it is not necessary to point this out, if only people every where will take note of the fact that development* are greatest aloiip modern mad? and in counties which 'have good highways. Take notice of it yourself and thus convince yourself of a very palpable fact. Some Florida counties observed that those counties which built g?x>d road* were outstripping them in development and in attracting home-seekers, ro they began at once to follow.suit. Good roads con struction thereupon became a craze throughout Florida, and the counties are so vieing with each other *hat the Tampa Tribune nays tI'Bt within a few months Florida counties have bonded more than $."?,1100,000 for highways, or will have dono ho before October ends. It is also stated that $10,000.000 will be the mark before 1015 end*. I hat clearly indicates good road? enthusiasm, and it accounts for the fact that already -Florida stands fourth among the Southern ?tat?** in the matter of go<?l roads. It also is stated that when the i'??ads for which lionds have l?ecn voted are completed, Florida will ?tand at the head of all the Southern slates. The reason is plain, and if North Carolina counties desire to develop, they may as well take the hint. The best section in the world Would remain undeveloped ?f it had no roads.- -Wilmington Star. STRICTLY NEUTRAL. Noting a story in the New York World to ti?c efft that "if tlie Allies are successful in arranging a loan here Germany will en deavor to make similar arrangements," the Richmond News-Leader is moved to remark: "Why not ? Money is neutral on the basis of equal security." .Inst ho. The motive actuating American bankers in connection with the contemplated loan to the Allies it not so much to help the Allies a? to promote American commerce. The money, if any is: obtained, is all to 1*? used in payment of supplies of various kinds purchased in this country. Under similar conditions and on equal security Germany would no doubt be able to arrange a loan in the Inited States on equally favorable terms hi the matter of interest rate. We are playing no favoritos in th? telling game or in the losning frame. Our markets are just as wide open to the Ten tor i ?s to the Entente Allies, the question of delivery being up to tl: purchasers in the both case?; and there's the rub with the'Teuton*.
