EIC3 SQUARE, B. 0., 00T. 12, 1905 If T7 ADVERTISEMENTS - t"7"Please mention the Roanoke , Chowan Times when wi iting j to advertisers - : We are pleased to learn from the Orange Connty News that the University of North Carolina I , has the largest enrollment in the : history of the University. There will be an important ; meeting of the Northampton Cot - ton Growers Association at Jack son next Saturday, beginning at : 11 o'clock. Questions of vital in tereet to the farmers will be dis- cussed and a large attendance is desired. Oub Jackson correspondent gives as a gentle rap about our failure to solicit advertisements and to answer letters.". The criti cism is just. Of late "it has been -impossible for the editor of this paper to do all the work he un dertakes. As to advertisements we get all we'eun take care of without any solicitation on our part, nnd some we would be bet ter off without. Our idea about , a County paper is that we must not let advertisements, though they pay well, crcwd out reading! matter. The proportion of read ing matter to . advertisements Ernst . be carefully looked after. Tta fewer advertisements a pa per has the more valuable the ad vertbirg- space, hence we can ' ctsxge a little more forour,space fva most county papers. HicS Square neds and should nave a graded scoooL Our High Eclool cannot accommodate all who wish to patronize it. Al . most daily some one applies to a :28T of. tne board of trustees to ester, their children hut for Lxk. of room no provision can be made for them at present. A rrjnber of families who ;.. have been patronizing other schools now wish to send their children here; and 'others wish to move here to receive tne benents oi our excellent BcnooL mere are about two hundred white child ren of' school age within easy reach of Rich Square, enough for v a very creditable .graded school We believe our people." would ' gladly support such a school, if : once established. We need to en large our public school district, i and levy a special school tax to 'supplement ' the present school - fund. . What say ypu, citizens of i 4Bica Squ&re and vicinity? The thing can be done. Now is the time to act. - It makes no difference how long yon have been sick, if you are troubled with indi- " gestkm, constipation, liver and kidney - troubles, Aollister's Bocky Mountain Tea ; will make you welL 85 cents?
