Entered as second-Jags matter May 20. 1908. at the post office at Burling ton. North Carolina, under the- Act of Congress -of Iarch 3 1879. Wednesday, January 27, 1909. Merchants Association. It may be useless to say that in our opinion the past mouth records the most important events of the town ot Burlington. This is so be cause theTe has been a manifestation of -harmony, of united efforts, of con certed forces that heretofore have never been united. Iu the first place, y mauy fruitless efforts have been made to make per manent a Merchants Association for Burlington, but at last the hope of eo many has been realized. The erroneous impression has gone abroad that such an association is to work a hardship on our people, but such impression ia readily re moved when the purpose is set forth. Which is to "Merit the honest, aid .the over burdened and eradicate tlie dead beat class". It is not tight for the holiest customer to pay the debts of the dishonest. ", So long as we do that we are parties to such conduct For every dollar a merchant loses 1 a dishonest customer, he puts on a greater profit for the rest and the houest man pays the dead beats bills. Help the met chant eradicate the dead beat and you will reduce the cost ofyourown: consumption. Chamber of Commerce. No town is any larger, greater or better tan it claims to be. So far we have had no active organization that has set foith the claims of Bur lington and Alamance county to the out-ide world as a place to live and do business. Foreign - capital does not realize that we have, a town, backed by a country filled with a vast amount of unharnessed natural wealth, and unlimited resources . There is, to our regret, a feeling in Burlington that the work of get ting new industries to our town, new residents, devolves entirely up on the business men of our town. Such should not be the case, because it is just as important to the day la- i borer as it is to the merchants and- mauufacturers, that we have these new concerns. ' Add to .our town a million dollars in hard wood manu facture and you will support two hundred homes. The work above enumerated is the mission of the present Chamber of Commerce. If j on are a loyal citizen of Bur lington -you wll join. If you are a back action fellow you will continue to go like the sand crab. The ques tion is up to you, whether you" will .v.. i-umugtuu to uuuuuue its i) res ent growth' By getting, on the band wagon of industrial activity, or will you stand off and waste your ener gy pumping the well of anti action dry, trying to put out the fire of in austrial combustion. Both streams flow by your door, the one leads out in the concourse of nations, the oth er over the-precipice of failure. " ' 1 1 ' " 1 The Babtists of 1 the'State ire makiog a:unifed effort to make sure pf the confir iiiation of Mrtf; Sea"lJ who has beer appointed judge of th eastern district. By President RooSevelt. . The action of the Bap tist in tnis cae is a direct rebuke of the daily news and editorial that fill the columns of that famous dis turber, of Raleigh, North Carolina Tf nil the vile and corrupt, low de grading editorials that have appear ed in the column's of the Joseph us Danipl ortran ' were erathered into O v-' ' one cell In hell there is uo man that could stand the temperature save the editor of the same organ. Judge Allen, white holding court at Greenville, N. C. last week, said he thought that the bill introduced . . - iota the legislature to compelthe judges to ' stay at each county 'seat for ix days in a week of each court week should be amended so that it would include the lawyers. MIL WILBUR H. ROYSTER ILL IN ATHENS, GREECE. His Father, Mr. V. C. Royster, Left Raleigh Yesterday to Sail from New York. News and Observer. An alarming cablegram was yes terday received by Mr and Mrs. V. C. Royster, which told them that their son, Mr. William High Roys ter, who lVnow in Athens, Greece, was ill, though in no immediate danger. The cablegram said that he is- ill with some kind of poison, which was not stated clearly in the cable gram. Mr. Royster at once pre pared to go to Greece and left here yesterday afternoon at four o'clock for New York and will sail . foi Europe on Wednesday. He will go on the Lusitania and from Liv erpool will go by rail and steamer to Athens, the trip requiring about twelve days. Mr. Wilbur Roysier is twenty f w) years old, and had gone " V Athens to study at the American School of Arcbeeology. .He was ai Johns .Hopkins last year and hi study at Athens was to secure the Jegree of Ph. D. ' He has many friends iu Raleigh and there will be many wishes for his recovery. There is deep sympathy for him and his parents, this increased by the fact that he is so far from home amidst straugers and foreigners In hisjourney, which will be filled with deep - anxiety, Mr. Roystei takes with him the best wishes of this entire community Girl, Beau and the Law. Kansas Citv Journal . Amid the general aud alarming bride5 ng of our liberties there-coineK a note of encouragement from Cleve land. Of late so . few delectable things have come of Cleveland that it helps, to restore confidence in that city to learn that Jt has a judge who is not sour :ud -unsympathetic with matters Jender and sentimen tal. This magistrate- who vet cherishes some of the sap of youth, has decreed and declared that a young wwman has a perfect right to sit upou .ner sweetheart's lap, an irate and protesting father the contrary notwithstanding: the case vs ot mighty interest to maidens and swains everywhere, in that the r'ght of the girl includes that of the man, the one embracing the other, as it were. If a girl may sit upon a man's lap, it mu3t be plain V) the courts and everybody else that the right cannot be exer cised without conhibutory assistance of the man. Therefore,' ergo and consequently, a man has a right to hold a girl upon his lap. Thus is cupid's brief made perfectly conclus ive without jciting other law, qr an abundance of precedents.
