GREENSBORO. N. C. PAGE EIGHT THE PITY OF IT - SELLING THEIVt, V CERTAINLY. Women Hauled Into Undue Publicity IT doesn't " make any difference what the committee finds in the Carter case and it doesn't - make any difference what: I -think or the other fellow thinks it is a . fact that they didn't prove anything as. to immoral - conduct on . the part of the Judge. That much is a set tled fact and a fact well settled. We are glad to know this and -regret tha so many mouths went off half cocked. -- When you slander a man, you've done something. Slander is .a sneak and she is silmy and slippery-and has" yellow teeth and a cor roded breath. She hisses and she whispers and she does things in the dark. But even Slander - has been - caught- and choked. Choked until sier tongue protruded and her "brazen i4dUB .tfeuame wune wim max. . oiau- vdfii3 a bluffer if you have nerve ffe call her -and this Judge Carter It is true the Judge stopped at a lotel and while there talked with the andlady and the landlady an in valid, sixty years old, swore and emotion shook her frame, that there had never been anything in the con duct of the Judge but what was be 'coming a perfect gentleman. There were no accusers to swear the Judge had been guilty of immoral conduct with the lady of "sixty: It was said he had 'gone into her room, and her room . was a sitting room and not -.only the Judge but all other guests '. f Inn fori in there' wrnra in there JhAnd they said the Judge sat in a swing, on the porch with this Lady -off sixty and because he did he had violated ong of the Ten, Command ments that needn t : be mentioned as to number here. . And what do you think of that? One of these big porch swings big enough to hold four people out on the porch for the very purpose of swinging, and because the Lady of Sixty was part of -the parcel and the Judge the other part, the sensitive and virtuous town of- -Clinton the town that had seen the Lady - of Sixty for a dozen yearsrunning her hotel; the town that never, suspect ed it would live to see such scandal ous proceedings, turned its 'blushing . eyes to the swing and, believe me my sweetheart, saw the- Judge and' the ? Lady swinging. - " , . Now -wasn't that- astounding Wasn't it a terrible blow to all the - hopes and loves and dreams, of those virtuous people who looked upon - this shocking and revolting : scene Actually: swinging in a swing made v to swing in: put on the porch in the presence of all the public to be used '.for the very purpose Jt was T)eing . used ifor-and yet because the man " was n. in Set ft and- thft-Lady nf Sixtv '.was- the .landlady and somebody had it in for the judge " certainly .'- Slander put on her best duds, diked -. to Mil,, jvnd.wentcut;breathing,her toul and polluting - Dreatn -1 on me , stainless-character of a'-man she wpuia aiscreait. , -., ,-But - by the. time: this is vread the ; investigation will be over., . The peo-- pie of. North . Carolina are -- going to -.'give their decision; It 'will be that Carter has been maligned and .that .he is the most fearless-judge on the - bench. - - It will be that because law yers eant bully him and because law : "f yers can't run his court he was the ' victim -of their malice. The. people ' of North "Carolina should call a meet- - ing ana 'pass , resolutions . euuorBing : Judge Carter and insist that he pay no attention to this unheard of pro . ceeding. - Judge Carter, has come out of the fire and is Dure eold. No doubt ..QKniit tVtia . T51tTotin? Yea . all -men are deemed . erratic if they -have tjuuugu uei vc lu aaaei i men ngiita and not allow, a bullying bar to" in timidate .them and run rough shod . over them. The lawyers do not like ' Carter. The people should love him. o Debates. - There are more debates on just now;' all. through the rural districts, : than ever before. . Woman suffrage, universal peace, capital punishment -well, everything in the way of a public question is being ' debated by the . bright young, girls and boys those who in a few, years will be call ed 7 upon to grapple seriously with such questions. - K " 1 - iris On. The first game of base ball for , Greensboro is . announced s for April 10th. The weather will be warm by : that time, and as it is to be the first . game of the season of course the crowd will be there. ' Warming Up.

Sloan Motor Co., head quarters Greensboro, general selling agents for the Hupmobile in many counties m North Carolina reports good business. Jso matter - much - about people complaining, tne man who wants a car buys one, and the man who wants something to the minute generally takes a Hup. It calls itself the "car for the American family," and we guess it is. . Asking an experienced automo bile man the other day a veteran not in-the game in this section, what kind of a car- he would buy, if we wanted to go a thousand or twelve hundred dollars,-and he said "a' Hup every time. ' You can always sell a Hup-it has the works in it." . Ana uoionei no b Sloan tells us that he finds but little trouble to sell a Hup if the purchaser wants to pay the price. Cheaper cars " have the call with some people hut when a man wants something with style, speed and durability the Hup seems to fill the .MIL-' We are glad Colonel Sloan is meeting with such great success.- - - . Doesn't Like Him.v Congressman . Taylor," of Winston, takes some space in the Journal to criticise the : slang of Billy. Sunday, perhaps Billy is all right. Perhaps he is the greatest on the pike but we never did believe in these fel lows who get up abnormal interest; who nave wonderful . magnetic pow er and cause a man to do something rash. Sunday is a powerful speaker Powerful - in - that -he takes' posses' sion-and liolds spell-bound his hear ers v , " . But after the hypnotic spell. is off uien , tne poor v. wretch - who was hypnotized pays the bill;. -: V ' - ; And the bill is rusury compounded. When Sam Jones visited Durham twenty-five years ago he had several hundred men profess religion. There was a wonderful change.. - The whole town felt his magnetism; men threw away their gold; they climbed on his chariot and started to . 'ride direct to heaven; - . - J- And within twelve years when we took account, but one man had re mained.- That man was a cripple and a Confederate soldier. . He had been a drunkard, but he stuck it . but for twelve years, and maybe unto the end. We hope he did. But- we f have in mind several splendid men; men of character; men of exceptional ability who pro fessed under Sam. . Ail they had been doing was drinking likker as was a custom - in '.hose days more than in these. They awoke in a short time some three months; some a year but when the backsliding came -they went down the toboggan with a fearful crash One- went to the lowest depths. We wrote him and begged him to again get right. He wrote us, and we have his letter, as pathetic as any we ever read and he said in . that the Sam Jones experience "broke my forces r tossed me helpless m an angry sea. He died wretched a - beggar- an outcast. . . Maybe Sunday is doing good. -We hope to God he is- we do not want to disparage, his campaign. But we fear for; allwho get excited. It is like marrying a woman on first sight when ; we are ' admonished to be not too rash to make a world-wide bargain. God - Almighty is not a lightning change artist. He doesn't want-you to act before v you -think. We find that the old preacher -who 'hands down the eternal words each Sun day, calmly and conservatively ;- who asks the sinner to come; up and be saved, ' in his: year's work does: more real good than the evangelist , who charges' big prices;, .who makes clown of-himself in the "pulpit . and who uses any and :i kinds of .lan guage. sam Jones did. some gooa but his mode of procedure did great harnu . j -He deft, .too many men -with out a stimulant. Like the drunkard suddenly cut off from ' whiskey the relapse -. was ; too - great--the nerves cried out and the sustaining power was - gone because it was Jones in stead o God' who worked the change, Men cannot snea tneir smns in minute ' unless God calls : them. If they,- mistake the voice of the hired evangelist for the voice of God they go to pieces. This has been our ob servation and we.: have r watched closely, results of all t&e evangelists save Sunday. - We do npt know the percentage of his savings. We hope however he does-good. -- That he is a powerful'man there is." no doubt.- A Good Rest. .'- The, Congressmen ' who have just returned" from Washington , are - look ing forward to a" long rest. -They worked hard; ; the : President : kept them 'on the job all 'the time and the summer . rest( w41L be good - lor them., '-""'.

Without Eggs. -, We receive the. following clipped from a paper and sent us by a cor respondent who wants to know why. the state can't run its own-insur ance and thus cut out such a . vast numoer of "middle men men who neither toil nor spin." The item fol lows: "In the State Department of In surance there are being issued just now local licenses to about 15.000 insurance agents, .fire, life, accident, health, fraternal and . oth'erwise. Also the annual licenses to the com panies to do business in the State are being issued as of April 1, . this be ing the beginning of the fiscal year for the department. There are 14U fire, insurance, 50 life, miscellaneous. 50 fraternal, 3 live stock and 1 4 1 building and loan associations to be licensed. In connection with the is- - . ( 'ii l 13 1 suing ul an mese nceu&es lueie is the income to the State of license taxes that will foot up 'big figures' that will greatly aid the over taxed State treasury." Well, in the first . place these agents represent companies, many of them state institutions;. These agents live and. spend their r money in the state. The people who insure pay them so much for handling the busi ness and .it is in this way that we maintain so many different kinds ot industry and keep so many people in work. . - . The state could own all the in dustries that are going. .It could do away with every merchant and have one big department store. . It could do away with all kinds of retail-and wholesale business. In fact it could manufacture its own products but when that happened there would be nothing doing. The millions of people who now find employment by living off eacb. other" would have nothing to do. They could not make a living. They might. farm and con sume what they raised on the farm but what kind of a life would it be? We must all understand that the 'medium of exchange" which we call money is not made for us to gather and hold. We reap and then we sow. And we sow and then we reap. The dirty dollar I earn today must tomorrow be earned by some other man. I can't hide it .and keep it out of action. If we all did that the world of commerce would be -no more. The insurance agent is all right. You don't have to buy his wares, if you want them he sells them to you. The dollar you give him 'goes somewhere else tomorrow. We keep the money going; each dol lar helps sustain so many lives. If we get a little ahead it is because we are more frugal or our expenses are less. The man who regrets that he is poor because he has several chil dren to feed must remember that-he didn't have to get - married. The man who thinks he is hard up be cause gasoline for- his automobile eosts money will admit that he didn't need the machine. We go into the&t. things with, our eyes open. If -we go in we -must -pay the bills. 1, The man who- dances is always' supposed to pay the fiddler. We wish there were fifty thousand - insurance agents all doing well in this state, instead of but fifteen thousand. ' . ' - Why? Why doesn't Uncle Sam make some provision for North - Carolina postmasters to keep their stamps and money in burglar proof vaults. Thursday night the post-office at Hillsboro was robbed and some $1, 500 taken. Yeggmen have robbed almost . every postoffice in North Carolina a time or two. Seems, that if it is always an open season for post-offices and Yeggmen do not ever fall into the hands of the law, the way to head them off would be to have some kind ot n tmrglar proof vault.' Uncle 'Sam could handle this matter. But he doesn't seem . to care. " " ; ' -:.:: The Clean Up Week.' The city in all-states. has recent ly : awakened and has a "Clean Up Day" -once a year. : , Greensboro has one, all progressive towns have one day.. Why -not every month? - Sup pose the housewife would leave her house" for a clean up but once a year think . what would happen: The day: is here when we recognize the germ theory. Possibly it is' worked too hard, but it. looks good. The germ should be routed . from his roosting place at least once a month. The towns should have twelve clean up days officially, ' and each , day of the three - hundred and .sixty-five should be personally ; observed by citizens in keeping things clean. - - J ' ' Getting - Clean. .. " , We-were in Salisbury last Friday for a few- hours. We were struck with "-the wonderful transformation. A: few. years ago "we journed thither and the street leading to the depot Was a .fish market and a concen trated and ' materialized - stench on stilts: walked the street a phantom, and yet visible. . It was in Salisbury that we saw the first and last stench on stilts. It was in the air and you could strike-it with a club. It. hung on the telephone wires and danced in glee on house tops.' : It was like -a cloud; -like thick mist and at times it obscured the sun. Tom Bost was doing stunts then ' on. the now de funct Sun and tried to apologize and excuse this materialized .manifesta tion -of : carrion tout it" wouldn't work. We insisted that it was fierce, Finally the -women and the men got busy. They , cleaned "up. . They at . keeping it clean,, and -today Salisbury is -a model of cleanliness; - Will Not Solicit. The - Salisbury Post Is authority f or the statement that One -big , Vir ginia mail . order likker house - has said that it will not solicit whiskey ordera;after. April first. : The 'quart law makes it unprofitable for them, and -the fellow who makes an order will : of course et 'his - goods but there will be no advertising no let ters sent, out to. this state soliciting BURIED HIS MONEY. But Concluded To Try The Bank And Was Particular. - Some time ago Mr. Frank Boyles, cashier of . the American Exchange Bank received "from an out. of "town customer a deposit of spme thirty five or forty dollars, and the letter telling himwhat to do ; was rich enough. Of course it would not be in good taste to print the letter be cause banking business is private. But this particular customer had very evidently concluded to get his money out of the. old trunk and sent it with fear and trembling. He told Mr. Boyles to -be very careful and see that the figures were plain in the book. He cautioned him not to let any one have the money unless he. was certain about the signature. He said that somebody might hear that he had money in the bank and would try to get It. He said that as soon as he got time he would send Frank his photograph and he could hang' it "up by his desk and if any one happened to come along with a check purporting to be from him he could look at the photograph and thus perhaps catch the would - be check .flasher. -It was a letter of several ' pages, and it was dead In earnest. . Now that man was getting on the right track. He never before had dealt with a bank. He didn't know that the , bank held hundreds of thousands of dollars of other peo ple's money; that it was under sup ervision of the United States govern ment; that there was no .possible danger of some one forging a check, and if it were done the bank" and not the depositor would lose the money; that with five or six thousand cus tomers it would be pretty "hard to have a photograph of each one on the wall or by the desk. But he was coming. He was on theight track. Hundreds of good honest men lose their money by not putting it in the bank. They lose interest; they run the risk of being robbed and maybe killed; they stand in their own light, and all because they do not inform themselves and understand as they could understand that a bank is as safe as any place in the world, it was funny to read this letter. lib earnestness; its fear; its honesty. Try It; Many people are subscribing for Everything and sending it to friends. Suppose you try this a year.
