THURSDAY, JUNE 21, 1923 THE OLD NORTH STATE To most of us things seen daily cease to call forth praise and rarely admiration, however, it is rare for anyone to tour our state without be ing impressed with t.’ie length anil breadth of the human endeavor spread out before every beholder that distinguishes the North Caro linians. The mills, the roads, the fields, the churches, the schools, the scen ery and unexcelled hospitality of our people are themes for separate ru-ticles that would fill pages of our daily paper, yet they are rarely touched upon by our native writers. Such being the case it is refreshing to read the following by Bert Bra ley, “As Soon As You Get To North Carolina.” -O FL1WERING WITH BRALEY (By Berton Braley) As soon as you get to No’th Ca’ lina The roads and towns get newah, fi nah, The people walk with brisker step, And even your motor has more pep. The hookworm’s banished: the coun try has, A lot more energy, pep and jazz, The livliest Northerner couldn’t de sign a, Livlier state than No’th Ca’lina. The farms look fatter, the ham ets ain’t Quite ignorant of the sight of paint, They’re building roads and they’re ■not content With sand and clay, but they use cement And the schools look good and the mills are busy And each inhabitant owns a Lizz'e, Or a big twin-six or something finah As soon as you get to North Ca’lina. The state’s not dreaming of days gone by, There’s a mortal glint in each mor tal’s eye, And the village belles and the vil lage beaux. Are as smartly dressed as the crowd which flows, On Gotham’s streets. You must give ‘em credit, These folks are fully awake, you said it! You meet the “boostah;” you lose the “whinah,” As soon as you get to No’th Ca’lina. -o-■ HOW MUCH CAN WE BE TAXED WITHOUT A VOICE OF THE PEOPLE If memory serves us aright the laws of the state permit you and I to be taxed up to eight per cent by a (1) a corporate body, (2) a school district, (3) a Township, (4) a county, (6) the State which makes 40 percent and then further a cor porate body can create indebted ? ness beyond the 8 percent when the money is to be used for a-’rev enue producing facility” which may bring the total allowable indebted ness to amount of fifty per cent -of your wealth. Then figure capit* aliration, i.e. The cost to repay the • debt, interest and all and possibly bad management and you can be taxed for every dollar you are worth. lWe do not claim to be authority on the subject, but there is food for thought here, and yet there fa not a community in (he United States that fa not wanting— and supplying their wants—by clamor ing for public improvements, es pecially so when it suits them. SB" SHE IS HAPPY AS A SCHOOL GIRL, SAYS MRS. BLACK m$. Etfie Blacio “I needed something to strength en my nerves and appetite and to tone up my whole system, and that is just what Tanlac has done for me to perfection,” Says Mrs. Effie Black, highly esteemed resident of 419 South Hardesty St., Kansas City, Mo. “For a long time I suffered from indigestion, gas and heartburn, had a very weak appetite, and was bur dened with severe headaches and dizzy spells. My nerves were on edge, I w'as too restless to sleep right, and felt drowsy and wornout all the time. “I was convinced before I ever took Tanlac that it was a meritori ous medicine, and now I know from experience that the treatment is just wonderful. My appetite and digestion have been restored per fectly, and my sleep is refreshing, and I am as healthy and happy as a schoolgirl. I believe Tanlac will help anyone else who suffers like I did.” Tanlac is for sale by all good druggists. Accept no substitute. Over 37 million bottles sold. Tanlac Vegetable Pills are Na ture’s own remedy for constipation. For sale everywhere.—adv.
