A SANITARY INSPECTOR
NEEDED FOR OXFORD
Oxford already has a sanitary in
spector in the person of the Chief of
Police but with all his other duties
to perform, it can be readily under
stood that it will be impossible for
him to look as closely after sanita
tion here in Oxford as the safety of
the town demands.
A whole time inspector is nppdpd.
The town formerly had a scavenger
system with the open back surface
privy. When the State wide sani
tary privy law superseded the local
sanitary laws, the scavenger system
was discontinued; and necessarily so,
as under strict compliance with the
law such a system would be unneces
sary and inapplicable.
Many pit privies have been con- ;
structed which barely conformed to ;
the standard or sanitary privv.
When so constructed they need the
constant attention of a sanitary in
spector, because by the flimsiness of
their construction they soon are not
sanitary. -Some recent inspections
reveal a great need of something
being done with some one behind the
doing of it all the time.
No town is any cleaner than lis
citizens; on the other hand, no citi
zen content to be surrounded by filth
is any cleaner than his surroundings.
Therefore, I am expecting many of
the citizens of this town to support
the demand for a whole time Inspec
tor. Such an agent surely will cost
money. But he. will not cost as
much in dollars as will be the cost in
sickness expenses and burials, if the
conditions are not followed up with
a persistence that will not admit oi
any other duties-
If any man thinks because his
house and premises are clean that he
is therefore safe, he has a delusion.
There are plenty of people in the
town satisfied to almost sit in filth;
and they are so close by the cleanest
in the town that it is as though all
were foul almost.
The duties of the Health Officer
are such as to nullify the corrections
made by what inspections he may
make because he has not time to fol
low up and compel the careless to
protect the careful and himself.
Last summer we had myriads of
mosquitoes bred in these privies
called sanitary. This should not be.
If they were frequently inspected,
this might be corrected. Every one
of them were told how to prevent it,
but telling them is not enough. This
class must be driven to do what they
believe is an imposition. A whole
time inspector can correct this; and
though he will cost money, what he
will be able to save will be worth
more than dollars.

Got the Poor House Frame.
(Asheville Times.)
Mrs. Taylor, the only woman who
ever went over Niagra Falls in a bar
rel, has gone to the poor-house. It
is reported that she has no friends.
We suppose that people got tired of
hearing her talk. If you stop to
think of it, it would be a good deal
of a trial to live in the same house
with the only woman who ever went
over Niagra Falls in a barrel. ,
woman lawyer to defend
woman Charged with
MURDER OF ANOTHER
For the first time in the history of
the New York Courtrs and probably
in the history of the country, a wo
man lawyer will defend a woman ac
cused of the murder of a woman. The
woman attorney is Miss Theresa B.
Dublin, of New York City, and her
client is Mrs. Donatella Massiella, of
Corona, Long Island, accused of hav
ing killed Mrs. Concetti Altieri, a
'neighbor. Mrs. Massiella, when
first arrested, pleaded for one of her
own sex to defend her. Miss Dublin,
who was admitted to the bar last
year, was asigned to the case.

As the Year Marches
When the north wind does not blow
in February, it will surely come in
March.
When March is like April, April will
be like March.
If March comes in like a lamb, it
goes out like a lion; if it comes in
like a lion, it goes out like a lamb.
March winds and April showers
Bring forth May flowers.
February makes a bridge; March
breaks it.
The first three days of March are
unlucky days days on which no far
mer would sow his seed.
A damp -March gives sorrow to far
mers. .
When the cat lies in the sun m
February, she will creep behind the
stove in March.
It is the common belief that th
month of February should have a
course of snow, rain and sleet in or
ler that all the powers of humanity
may be exhausted before the com
mencement of March when an oppo
site kind of weather is looked for.
Good Judges
(Monroe Journal)
The old time preacher who made
long trips on iiorse back or in buggy,
over bad roads were, as a rule, splen
did judges of a good horse and could
not be fooled about the value of an
animal. They were good judges of
men, too, and were most discerning
for as The Southern Ruralist points
out the told time preacher always
wanted to go home with the man who
had driven a fat horse to church, for
he knew that the man who kept his
horses fat had plenty around him
and was a good provider.

Sixty per Cent Of the Growers
Would Not Sign Pledge.
A special from Lexington, Ky.,
says: Plans for curtailment of the
1921 crop of hurley tobacco were
Growers' Association at its annual
abandoned by the Burley Tobacco
meeting here today. The reason
given was that it was impossible to
get 60 per cent of the growers of
the district to sign the pledge.
The proposition to curtail the crop
50 per cent in the coming season
was voted on at a meeting of the
growers here Feb- 22. It resulted
from the heavy drop in prices under
those of last year and agitation for
a "cut out" of th 1921 crop.

The Oldest Joks.
It is claimed that the oldest joke
is the one about the English tourist
who was out walking in the north ol
Ireland and who stopped at a little
farmhouse and asked for a drink of
milk. The milk was brought to him
in a large bowl, and the Irish-woman
who was carrying the bowl was fol
lowed by a small pig that was squeal
ing noisily. The Englishman took a
deep drink of the milk, but was an
noyed by the pig rooting at his legs
and grunting.
"What is the matter with the
pig?" asked the Englishman.
"Oh, don't mind him, sor," was
the reply. He's jealous, that's all,
because you are drinking out of his
own wee bowl."

See how easily you can cover up old dingy crack
ed walls and build-in permanently new rooms all
over the house all without muss or litter.
Quite a contrast between doing your repairing
and remodeling with clean panels of Beaver
Board than trying to get a permanent job with
messy lath and plaster.
Now you can use Beaver Board and put it rigli! on top
of the old walls and ceilings." With Beaver Board yen can
make usable rooms out of useless spaces inatticand basement.
Tben, too, it is as good for the new home as it is lor re
modeling the old one.
Beaver Board is a new from of lumber. It's buill up
from the strong clean fibre of the spruce tree into hr:c
sturdy panels of knotless, crackless manufactured iumbei

prevents warping. Beaver Board will last as long as thi
building.
You owe U to your home, old or new, to see u? abo
Beaver Board now.

Beaver Board
results unless this
trade mark is on
the back of the
board you buy.
