O Almost any day in the week a flock f loafers can be eeen sitting around n the streets, or perched high by the side of the street like a flock of busards, bat with far less ambition. It is not always confined to the gen tlemen, for now. and then a dnaky damsel h "helping her brother" with his loafing. Is there not a vagrancy law in the town, county, or state that could scatter this flock? If so, let ns encourage the enforement thereof.

While law enforcement ia going on, why not put some of the white gentlemen, as well as the col ored to work earning their salt, that is if they are capable.

C word or line has yet been developed weary way, they continue to sit basking in the sunbeams of idleness, and apparently content. For some time after a horrible ac cident occurs, care is taken for this particular accident not to happen again, but after time passes it seems to be human nature to become slack. One rainy day last week, a number of small children were on their way home from school, and seemed to be having lots of fun from a game that required running from the sidewalk into the street behind parked cars. Behind several of these cars there was plenty of room for other cars to drive in and park, and it was perhaps sheer luck that none did so until after the children had passed on. But on the slick streets it would have taken an expert driver with perfect brakes and control over his car, not to have hit one of these children. If an accident of this kind had happened, it would have, in all possibility, been the en tire fault of the child, but many drivers are again becoming careless, as w.-'l 2P reckless. Perhaps a word f warning and caution will be suffi cient, but if it is not, let us do what fingers find little time for mischief" and the young men, as well as the girls of this town were given light tasks, it would not only be relieving their parents of a few odd jobs but, would keep the youngsters out of mischief and at the same time be fitting the young shoulders for the burdens of life. of a showing fraud or wrong doing or the Learn at home or school.

We heartily endorse and com mend this article, but we would like to add one thing further Mr Long is a true gentleman of the "old school", which, to our mind, is one of the highest compliments that can be paid a man: "Solicitor Zeb. V. Long, of this judicial district, recently closed his first year of official service in that office. The Montgomerian congratu lates him on what he has been able to do in the way of law enforcement. One Superior Court Judge, in speak ing of Solicitor Long's services, said that a recent term of Superior Court held" in Randolph County in which Solicitor Long prosecuted the docket, was "productive of the most real re sults" of any week of court that he tration the greatest scandals of a century have developed, and never in the history of this or any other country has there been so much mis appropriation and wholesale stealing Mrs. Wm.
