' .v,. and demanded in this age of modernism and efficiency to permit of any one locality undertaking to adopt them all at ono time. Unquestionably there must be a gradual achievement along these lines. The Free Press takes issue with the Clerk of the Board, and its members when "they feel that there are too many other things to use the county's money for than to permit the small appro priation for the conservation of health. The Free Press takes issue with the Board or with uny other agency or body when It is contended that any other call on the public funds is more important or should rank that of the public health. Dr. Cooper, who Is an expert in health matters, gives it as his opinion that at least a hundred deaths occurred in Lenoir county last year from proven table diseases, because the people were ignorant of. the simple laws of hygiene and sanitation, which could be taught them at so little expense. If a hundred hogs or cattle had died in Lenoir county last year from what the veterinarians pronounced to have been , a preventable malady, which could have been checked fcy a small ap propriation, would the members of the Board hesitate to make the appropriation ? Ths Free Press doesn't believe they would have allowed the matter to go over for a month or have shelved it, either. Because the gen eral mass of the county's populace are not aroused to the need of health education and are not clamoring en masse for appropriations sufficient to start such education in the county,, is no reason why the Board of Commissioners and others who have been elected to lead, should not take the initiative and demonstrate to the people that there is heed for certain simple precautions to be taken to reduce the sick and death rate. ' The Free Press reiterates its hope that the Clerk Js right In his "sizing up" the situation, and that the Board will yet make tha appropriation, that the work may be carried on this year. : The appropriation ahouM be made and it should be made now!

WHAT OTHERS SAY Wilmington Dixpatch: "Charges against Warden Osborne of Sing Sing will at least have one good ef fect,, regardless of whether the war don is proven guilty or the political iing is shown up to be a cesspool of corruption and intrigue. With tho pressure of mass meetings, yards of editorial space,, miles of statements to the papers and a fair and impar tial trial the case should present a 'survival of the fittest." i MEAT INSPECTION ESSENTIAL. Greensboro News: "The county farm bureau and chamber of com merce meeting, to be held at the Chamber of Commerce Saturday at 19 a. m., or the Farmers' Union meet ing, set for the same day and hour, Of both of them, ought to reach a satisfactory conclusion as to regula tions for marketing meat In, Greens boro. .,;v'.ri ' "The subject of meat inspection nd rules therefor Is not difficult or complicated. The issues are very definitely those of right and wrong. It is purely a question of trade,' be tween the farmers of the county and the people of the city.- It is to the interest of either" party that trade shall be as little restricted as possi ble. At the same time the people 'of Greensboro owe to themselves a very plain duty of safeguarding against disease the sources of all their food supplies."

The prob lem of keeping minors from playing in public pool rooms Is also vexing to the city authorities everywhere more or less. , . t One of the most effective methods that has been adopt ed anywhere for the correction of these evils has been the "revoked license." Many of ! the larger cities have enacted laws against such gambling and prohibiting min ora from entering or engaging in a game in the pool ii t ... .... ....... y' m . At. - . rooms, ino responsibility ior me ooservance oi inese aws has been placed squarely upon the proprietors and the penalty for violation is taking away the license. In the light of recent developments In Kinston, indi eating that gambling has been permitted in the pool rooms a thing that few ever had any doubt aboutwould it not be well for the City Council to enact some such law governing tho local pool rooms? The officers of the law can hardly be expected to break up the custom of gam bling or to prevent minors from entering and indulging tn games in these places, for their occasional "look in' is not sufficient to meet the needs of the situation, The proprietors can come pretty nearly stopping both praC' tices if they will to do so. and the chances are that they will if there Is a 'risk of losing their license. The Free Press understands that some patrons of the pool rooms might indulge In gambling without the knowledge or con sent of the proprietors or managers, but such instances would be few and far between If there was the proper vigilance and effort made, At least tho greater part of the gambling and the visiting "of the gaming rooms by minors would be eliminated if the proprietors were thus arrayed against them. " , Why not safeguard the fellows who frequent these places In every possible way? Brilliants: The latest Ford joke is to'the effect that all Fords in future must be self-starters because Ford took all tho cranks with him to Europe. The Brooklyn Eagle, commenting upon the peace voyage, says: "Henry Ford's peace movement was at least a self-starter.'!
