WASTrmrroNV ?north Carolina, nov. 12, 1915.
Monday we noticed * headline in the New Bern Sun to the effect
that "0??2Ialf of Serbia Captured." Tuesday, in the same space,
we glimpsed the heading ''Two-Thirds of Serbia Captured." It'll
be all over by tomorrow.
With the fine of $150 in Norfolk Tuesday, tho case against Wil
liam Swanner has at last been ended. Judging the nature of thej
offence, the general sentiment appears to bo that Swanner w
mighty lucky in securing 60 light a verdict.
Judging from the taste of the water during the last few days, the
water company mu*t have made a mistake and connected us up with
the ocean.
A large number uf our local residents went to Aurora yesterday,
and Wednesday to see the agricultural fair, which was held in thatj
caty this week. Practically everyone expressed themselves as bein^i
both delighted and surprised with the excellent quality of the ex
hibits. The people of Aurora cannot be commended too highly
for their progreesivenesn. They have made Washington and Be!
haven feel rather cheap.
It isn't too early for the Chamber of Commerce to got behind .< j
movement for a Greater Beaufort County fair next year. If Aurora
can get up a good fair there is no reason why Washington shouldn :
do likewise.

THE LIBRARY QUESTION'.
n
At the meeting of thf Chamber of Commerce Tuesday night, tin
local public library question was given considerable discussion. In
the minds of most of those who expressed themselves in the matter,
the best plan would be for the city to endeavor to operate the or
ganization under Mr, Carnegie's plan. . If we can guarantee that
the institution will be given regular support, a building may be se
cured from the Carnegie Library fund that will not cost the city
a cent
Tt is necessary, however, that a site be furnished. There ore two
or three desirable locations in tho hea*t th* ? " * -1
, . _ , , , . ? ? ^aiArn si rvv^ wi.ile u is understood that
there is *oine opposition to giving this lot for a library site, tho pro
ject is too worthy a one to be held back because of personal reasons.
Tho library association will hold a meeting in tho near future.
We would suggest that they invite a number of the representative
business men of the city to their meeting and let the matter be;
Thoroughly discussed at that time.
Wanted: Information as to the whereabout, and movements vfj
ono T. R. Be<m lost from the front page for several weeks.
We can turn our attention from the bloody battlefields for a while
and discuss the probable answer that Great Britain will make to our
last note.
THE GOOD ROADS ASSOCIATION.
?f ?? 7 ___________
The men who are behind the good roads movement in Washington
township are showing by their every action that they are working
on a nound business basis, that every detail is being eared for and
that they are leaving no atone unturned to see that the election foi
bonds is carried.
The latest movement in this direction was the organization of the
WnRhington Township Good Koads Association, which was perfected
Tnjewda^ nigh$i The association is composed of prominent men
of both city and rural district*. W. II. Stancil), the provident, if
known throughout the county as a g?>od-rouds adv<.eate and g'?od judg
rnent was displayed in selecting him for president of the Associa
tion. The other officers are equally worthy men.
The automation has considerable work ahead of it. One of thr
fir*t thing* they will take up will be to send a committee before thf
county commissioners in order to settle upon the exact method of
expending the money on the roads of the township. Another matter
which they will probably undertake is an excursion into some of thr
adjoining counties in order that some of our residents mav sep what
good roads really are. Still an"thor work that they will direct will
h? the holding of a general mass meeting and barbecue Rome time
during December, to which a numl>er of prominent men including
Governor Craig- -will be invited,
The association has some big wwrk uheud of it. Ii is composed
of widA-swake men, however, and we l*lieve that they will U' sue
ceMfnl in carrying their work to a successful finish.
Hf-lhaveii will have a chance to show what it chii >1" in the why of
entertaining, when the North Carolina Drainage Association meet?
in that city on the last day of this month. I'nles* we ar?- very much
mistaken. Bel haven will do herself proud.
One of the residctitH of another township in Beaufort county yes
terday made the remark that they were only waiting to s^e how the
bond election would turn out in Washington township. l?efore hold
ing an election themselves. There is little doubt hut that, the town
ships in the county will follow in rapid order, once th?y -we the
improvements that ars made in this section.

Former users of black, rank tobaccos are becoming
PICNIC TWIST oheifers. They are finding in PICNIC
TWIST a softer, sweeter chew witha long- lasting flavor,
milder than they imagined tobacco could
be. Why should they risk the strong

the thieve* to break in through a rear window and rifle the content?
of a store at their leisure. They hove practically nothing to fear.
We would suggest, before it is too late, that the merchants protect
themselves against future robberies by either putting iron bars be
fore the rear windows of their stores or else installing strong wooden
shutters. At any rate, protect the stores so that they will not offer
an easy opportunity for th^ft fo every wandering hobo who comes
to our city.
All parta of Beaufort county are beginning to show progress. At
Old Ford a meeting is being held today at which community prob
lenis will be discussed. The idea is an excellent one and other di*
tracts in Beaufort county could do the same with profit to themselves.
