TUESDAY EVENING. JANUARY 28, 1915
A new peac plan for Mexico is the latest. There it n
. suggestion of new president being involved either. The
eyea of the world will watch with interest the development
of thi latest idea. It must be very remarkable as com
pared with those that have gone before. What is it, Ar
turo EliaaT
Berlin say of the Sunday naval engagement that it was
a draw and both aide lost on ship. The German censor
will never pas more than a break-even story. It is either
"our force are holding their own or have met and repuls
ed the enemy' when it is dated Berlin. Both sides of the
conflict manifest tendencies to claim success, but tho re
ports, coming from Paris, do occasionally admit that the
troop of the Allies have been driven back a few yard.
they can dispense, send it to them in order that the crle
of th' needy may be heard. 'V'" , -
Not only are th Associated Charities besieged, but the
people of town have frequent visits from those asking
aid. There are a number of little children, who are sent
from door to door, and they tell their pitiful stories,
which give evidence of having been drilled into them. In
a rather professional way. This custom ought to be stop
ped so fsr as possible. In the first place, individuals can
not, as has been pointed out in these columns before, in
vestigate the merit of the appeals and unworthy peo
ple may be assisted by promiscuous giving. In the hoc
ond place, it is a terrible thing to start a child out beg
ging bread.' If the parents of th child are not in position
to take care of them, society should do so, and not permit
professional beggars to be developed, as is the logical
outcome of the custom that prevails here now. The Free
Press believes that the unfortunate should be helped, and
that evereything possible should be done for them, but
it thinks that the Associated Charities or some other or
ganization, which is equipped to make investigation,
should be the medium of th almsgiving. Let the citi
zen of tho city contribute through the organized chari
ties, unless they know of particular cases of which the
conditions, aa told by the one making the appeal are cor
reck Children should not be encouraged, when sent out
to beg and parents should not be allowed to send them
from door to door. If the older members or the family
are dixabied ana not in comnuon u communicate wun
the heads of the Charities, why then the child might be
sent with a mettKuire. -but not to repeat, parrot-like, a
hard-luck tale. . ,

NOTICE OF DISSOLUTION. OF
PARTNERSHIP.
Th Free Press printed in it people column Monday
. letter .signed "A Subscriber" in which th question
asked ii. lt Is right to close up th local rentauranta on
; Sunday, and thu prevent traveling men and stranger in
th city from getting something to eat This paper
: view on that question la that all due allowance for tht
convenience of th "stranger within the gates" should
b mad. Th Free Press is not informed as to the ex
tnt of th inconvenience occasioned by th present ays
; tern. At least on public eating place should be available
at all reasonable hour. This could be done without tht
spirit of th Lord' Day being broken. "A Subscriber'''
question i worthy of consideration.
Both Dayton and Staunton city manager report a re
daction in city tax rat sine th new plan of city gov
'. ernment was inaugurated, and more efficient service has
been given. There may b a still better plan for Kinston
and ahould th suggestion of Th Free Press, that a com
' mltto of leading citizens be appointed to get their heads
together and study th local problem with a view of sub
mitting plan by which Kinnston would be better man
aged, be adopted, omething entirely original might be
evolved. - At least the merit and demerit of the various
modern forma, for which there are plenty of examples,
, could b carefully considered. Th mayor and board
of aldermen would manifest a breadth of mind and public
splritedness which would meet with a cordial reception
jhould they follow out some such plan. Will they rise
'to tit) occasion?
- Th City Council should not let another meeting go by
without providing the proper measure to cut down the
fly- crop for th coming season. The stable, both public
and private, and wherever horse or mule ar kept,
ahould be cleaned out at least once a week and the man
ure put away either in a screened cesspool or some place
entirely Insccesslble to the fly. Manure piles are the
fvorit breeding place for the common house-fly. He
is bred in filth, raised in filth and lives in filth except
when h take an occasional trip to wipe hi filth-laden
foot en some choice eatables or to circumnavigate the
rosy lips of baby. Fly swatters are necessary to shoo
them off of one's nose when they become particularly
fatnlliar, and fly paper and other traps catch them by the
thousand, but the crop doesn't diminish to any appro
etabl decree becaus the sources of supply are so num
reus., Th prevention plan is the only one that has any
jnrlt whatsoever. Trying to kill out the crops with swat
ter after they are hatched ia like giving medicine after
On dies. - Why not try the plan of doing away with the
nesting places this year?
THE ASSOCIATED CHARITIES
AND THE BEGGING HABIT
v Th Associated Charities ar having many calls for
clothing from th unfortunate in th city. Other neces
sities ar likewise asked for, and the appeals have fre
quently to be turned down because there is nothing with
jvhich to respond to them. Th leader of th charity or
ganization urg that all, who have old clothing, with which
GOOD WORK OF THE
SCHOOL FOR THE FEEBLE-MINDED.
Dr. and Mrs. McNairy and assistants were hosts to a
number of invited guests from Kinston and nil section of
the State, at a dinner at the School for the Feeble-Minded,
Saturday nio-ht. The viHitors were shown over the
grounds. The children went through with some interest
ing exercises and a most delightful repast was served
following which many of the visitors were called upon to
respond to toasts. All who visited the school Saturday,
and who have been there recently were impressed with
the good work that is being done. The children's exer
cises given Saturday night under the direction of Mini-
Sallie Shaw, the lady principal, and her assistants dem
onstrated beyond question what could be done with the
class of unfortunates cared for at the school. The speak
ers were loud in their praises. They eulogized those, who
had been Instrumental in the organization of tho school
Dr. Cyrus Thompson of Jacksonville paid a worthy tri
bute to one of Lenoir's citizens, Dr. Ira M. Hardy, whe
originated the plan for th school and fathered it to iu
culmiration in the present buildings. Other speakers toU'
of thoir agreeable surprises in finding such an institu
tion. There were several members of the Legislature
among those gathered Saturday night, and they were im
pressed, as was everybody else with the splendid oppor
tunity that is before the institution and the large res
ponsibility of the State to foster and support the school
in order that it may do it work on a larger scale.
Dr. McNairy is doing a good work and he is anxious to
get, through the present Legislature, an increatied appro
priation for the enlargement and upkeep of the institution
His hands are to a' large extent tied now for lack of the
mean with which to carry on the work. The State should
make further provision for the school, and it should be
done nt this session of the Legislature. A visit to the
school will convince any "skeptical" ones of the necessity
and wisdom of its enlarging ita facilities in order that
more of the unfortunate children of the State may Ik
brought under ita care. One of the speakers Saturday
nifiht spoke of the benefit thnt would accrue to Kinton
because of the school's location. Kinstoniuns should real
ize that fact and stand squarely behind Dr. McNairy in
his efforts to secure adequate support for the institution.
Notice ia hereby given that the
partnership heretofore composed of J.
C. Dail and A. N. Taylor, doing busi
ness in the City of Kinston, under the
firm name of Dail and Taylor, was,
on the 4th day of January, 1915, dis
solved by mutual consent, and that on

debtedness of old partnership and all
amounts due said partnership should
be paid to new firm. I

Charlotte Observer: "Suggestion to New York report

Greensboro News: "We can't make Greensboro a city
of 100,000 in a week, but you can't build your spire until
the foundation ia laid."
MORE CONSEQUENCES OF WAR
Wilmington Star: "It is estimated that more than
.000,000 non-combatants in the war sones in Europe are
ponniless and are facing starvation. The men who suf

of war." -, . ,

For half a century, Cardui has been re
lieving just such ills, as is proven by the
thousands of letters, similar to the above,
which pour into our oiiice, year by year.
Cardui is successful because it is com
