TWO THINGS TO DO IN SOUTHERN PART OF STOKES 1 • First and Foremost Is, Of Course, the Improvement of the Roads, and Second to Improve Town Fork Bottoms. Kinston. N. C., Dec, 10. Editor Reporter: t It is with pleasure that I have ' been reading the items in your paper from Walnut 'Cove. Stokes county neetfs a good live* town, and Walnut Cove is the logical location for such a town. And it seems that her citizens have caught the right spirit, and are determined to make their town prow. " „ But there are two very vital things for the people of that cor ner of Stokes to do, if they ex pect to keep up this progressive development of their town and community.. The first and fdne most, of course, is the better ment of their roads. No town can hope to develop into a city until the public roads leading in to that town are made at least passable, and are not a menace 0 travelers. In fact it will mean much to 11 Stokes county when she wakens to the fact that poor oads are poor economy. This tsson might be learned from bservation, if we would but atch the growth and develop ent of our neighboring counties orsyth and Guilford. Another thing which the peo le of Walnut Cove, and sur junding community, need to do; 1 to change the bottom lands on 'own Fork Creek, from semi ivamp condition, into the most roductive corn lands in North &rolina, This can be done by redging the creek as has been hown in Catawba, Rowan, and ►ther counties. I When I was at home last sum rmer, I was informed that a sur [ vey had been of the creek by a government expert, but have ne rer heard with what result. Why jan't this matter be taken up, tnd these lands that were once' he granery of that section of forth Carolina be made product ve again? Certainly there is no ither one thing that would mean 0 much for Walnut Cove, and unwinding country. Very, truly, EMMETT C. WILLIS. * From Bessie Pructt. Greensboro, Pec. 13. Mr. Editor: Will you please allow me a fettle space in your valuable paper to tell Santa Claus where 1 am. I am in Greensboro. I thought maby you diden't know where I was. I want you to bring me a wagon, a doll and some candy, peanuts and cracker jacks. v BESSIE PRUETT. Sceil's Emulsion is the original —has been the standard for thirty-five jyeajs.
