I ain't hard ly had a chance to do any bystanding. Course folks are still going on 'bout their business, and everyone you sec is in a news story of some kind. That's a fact. Betcha any man you stop anywhere you can get a story from him of some description. Well I guess von folks wish I would stop this stuff I‘m trying to do and go out and see :;omc of the folks that w,ould give me a real story. Maybe I will. GETTING TIIE STORY Folks it ain't much chance of get ting a story. The post office job seekers are still on the job. Bill Cof fin has at last got his signal equip ment for the main drag. Cooley has gone to Washington so not many folks from here are journeying to Nash ville. so you see it\s right hard to get a story. Here’s something that ain’t a story, it’s the truth.

MAYOR WATKINS TO SPEAK OVER RADIO His Address Comes Over WPTF, Raleigh, This Evening at 9:30 Mayor Irvin e B. Watkins will speak over WPTF this evening at 9:30 o’clock instead of 9 o'clock as has been previously announced, on “Mun icipal Tax Problems’’ under the aus pices of the North Carolina League of Municipalities, it was stated today. Mayor Watkins is one of a number of leading men in the State who have been chosen to speak of some phase of how the tax dollar is spent. Citizens arc invited to listen to the mayor in his talk this evening. Forester Looking To Fire Season (Continued From Fag:** One.) through organized counties in district. No. 4 with headquarters ar New Bern during the next several days, the De partment of Conservation and De velopment announced today. Mr. McCormick on the trip will visit Johnston, Wilson. Pitt, Lenior. Beau fort, Greene. Wayne and Craven coun ties. Tie will visit all forest fire tow er sites and inspect all fire-fighting equipment in the cooperating coun ties. In each case hew ill be accom panied by the county warden in go ing over the territory and outlining plans for the most effective control of fire. One of the lightest forest fire sea son experienced in years was report, ed for last fall. Fa\ r orable weather, the assistant State forester declared! was of tremendous value to the fire control activities; and he believes that the protective organization has reached its highest peak of efficiency Another extremely valuable factor in the State’s forest fire contral pro gram. according to Mr. McCormick, has been the work of the Civilian Conservation Corps which has con structed hundreds of miles of fire lines and hundreds of brieges to make the forests more accessible to fire fighters and to check the spread of flames. Considerable time has also Out of Your Phone Comes the Choicest Meats From Our Block. Turner's Market Phones 304-305. Bre 'MCr^S IVAN I*ODERJAY TS HELI?

(The social duty of a government will be considered obvious.) Theo rdered production of crops as well as manufactured goods will bo accepted as a necessity. A fundamental single tax for the distribution of wealth probably will be here—forced by economic exigen cies of federal and state governments as well as social pressure. The money manipulations—the ef forts to make one dollar seem two or three dollars—will seem looney, perhaps. Crime prevention meetings will be looked back upon as something much further in the past than 1934-35—for the essence of crime will be seen then to be in the economic and social depths (which will have been alle. vated greatly). The mass movements of the age, the dictatorships, the organizations based ond ivision through prejudice or conquering through emotionalism will seem unreal and frightsome. The cry to preserve individual rights, raised when monopolies and exploiters resisted efforts at control, will seem ironical. Purely Vegetable Laxative Thedford's Black-Draught is one of the most popular laxatives sold today because it is made of the leaves and roots of medicinal plants, and because it brings refreshing relief from con stipation troubles. “Black-Draught helped me when I was bilious, constipated, feeling slug gish, dizzy, or had a had taste in my mouth.” writes Mrs. W. M. Bullock. Waynesburg, Kv. “I haven’t found any medicine I like better than Black- Draught.” It’s the favorite laxative of thou sands of others. Have you tried it?
