"We will speak out; we will be heard Though all earth's systems crack; We will not bate a single word Nor take a letter back. We speak the truth and what care we For hissing and for scorn, While some faint gleanings we can see Of freedom's coming morn? Let liars fear, let cowards shrink, Let tiaitors turn away; Whatever we have dared to think That dared we also say." The slop tub at the Cooleemee Journal office ran over again last week, - Winston is a good town all right but there are others Mocksville for instance. Good times are in sight! Roose velt and the Xorth Carolina black berry crop are scheduled to appear at about the same time. And now Charlotte bows her head and humbly admits that she hasn't 50,000 inhabitants, nay, not more than 35,000. We knew that it would be so. We received from Reedj Creek last week a letter tor publication, but the author's name did not ap pear, and it was consigned to the scrap pile. Strange that peoplt will persist in sending unsigned articles to newspapers for publica tion. Always sign your name. Evpry farmer in Davie countj 8liouldjoiu the Farmer's Union.

From a small beginning a few yeaifr ago, it has grown to be one of the largest and strongest organizations in the United' States, and its influ ence for good is being felt through out the country. THAT X MARK. Some of our subscribers are won dering why their paper bears anX mark these days. Dearly beloved, let us break the news gently. It meaus that for.mauy days we have longed to see your smiling face in our sanctum, or to receive a "love letter" from you. It means that the editor hasn't starved to death up to the present time. It means also that our reuts, wood bill, pa per bill and ration bill remain un paid. It means that, we are a long suffering mortal, and. that we look to you for our daily bread. Should you find a cross mark after youi name, it means that we fear you have forgotten us. It means thai the price of bread and meat have gone up, and starvation stares Ufc in the face. It means that this h the only way we have of telling-a man that he is owing us, as we are not able to buy stamps to mail each of our subscribers a letter. Yes, beloved, it is just a gentle remind er that you are owing us and that we need the money badly. Oui expenses have been heavy this win ter, and at the price we charge foi our paper, we are compelled" to gel what is owing us, or suffer. If wt charged a dollar a year for our pa per, we could afford, to lose some on bad accounts, biit since the "pa per is only 50 cents a year we can not live if our subscribers do -not pay us. We believe that our sub scribers mean to pay us, but hae just neglected to do so. Theieaie hundreds of our friends who are owing us, : and we hope they will consider, this ; a personal - appeal. We trust tnat no one will take of fense at what we have said, as it is not our intention to offend any one.
