HOEY AND MAXWELL Our opinion is that Governor Hoey will not make a better appointment during his adminis tration than he did when he appointed A. J. Maxwell to his present position. It is not poli tical from any point of view. The best informed man in the state about taxes and revenue is Mr. Maxwell. No matter how far the governor may go astray in rewarding political pre-election supporters, he has made the best start possible in his appointments. Now if he will appoint men who are person ally dry to his liquor commission, he will hit the bull’s eye. He may select the very best men in the state for this job and yet no matter how well they try to administer the matter it will a mess with 24 per cent wine and a checkerboard of ABC stores scattered over the state. I AM A FANATIC .. • I admit that 1 am a fanatic on at least one question. Radicals and fanatics are often class ed and considered of equal rank. We usually class the man who opposes us as a fanatic if we are unable to meet his argument successfully. We are told among other definitions that a fa natic is one affected by excessive enthusiasm. Just now there seems to be many fanatics on both sides of the Supreme Court proposition. We have always had fanatics on the drink question. Now drink has never bothered me. 1 have WHAT IS A BOY? What is a boy? Apt answer ap peared not long ago in a quotation from the bulletin of the Rotary Club of Louisville, Ohio, published in an editorial in the Rotarian Magazine. It is especially appro priate as communities throughout the w%rld prepare to celebrate Boys’ and Girls’ Week, April 24 to May, 1. “The person who is going to carry on what you have started. He is to sit where you are sitting and attend to things which you think are so important, when you are gone. You may adopt all the poli \ cies you please, but how they will be carried out depends upon him. Even if you make leagues and trea ties, he will have to manage them. He will take your seat in Congress, assume control of your cities, States, and empires. He is going to move in and take over your churches, schools, universities, cor porations, councils, and prisons- All your work is going to be judged and praised and condemned by 'him. The future and destiny of humanity are in his hands, so it might be well to pay a little attention to i him now.” We tarnish the splendor of our actions by speaking too often HHB them.—Blair.

It has never directly brought trouble, loss or sorrow into my home or family. Yet, after thinking the matter o ver, 1 have decided that I must be a fanatic. 1 have a personal hatred for the stuff. I speak against it without invitation. 1 vote against it and against the raen who use it whenever 1 get an opportunity. Here is why 1 am a fanatic about this awful evil: when 1 was a boy in the mountains, Chick alily, a young Indian, killed another in cold blood for a pint of liquor and went t« the state prison for life. A cousin of mine was brutally murdered by another young man because of li quor. A friend of mine was turned into a crazy man on a Sunday, all day long yelling and curs ing. These things made an indelible impression on me. Later I went into a home where the fath er had been drunk for days and saw a three year old boy drunk. That father died a drunkard’s death and years later I found that boy in an or phanage. I have talked with men who wept over their appetite for drink, saying that they would give everything if they could resist the temptation. Some of them quickly went to their ruin. One drunkard said he always voted against it, that he would banish it from the earth if he could. He could not resist its appeal when offered. Lately one of my best friends, a fine cha racter by nature, has almost broken his wife’s heart and lost the respect of his own sons by drink. Another fine young man lost his job. % They are slaves desiring to be free. 1 am my brother’s keeper. I could go on mentioning dozens of instan ces of this sort that show the awful danger and terrible effects of this thing called intoxicating drink. It may be bought at almost any place where gasoline or groceries are sold in our state 24 per cent strong enough to enthrone it self where reason sits. It is not the only evil, but today it is the most dangerous in North Caroli na. When 1 talk to its slaves and see its awful effects on my frends and others, i become a fa natic when this subject is mentioned. 1 hate it for humanity’s sake, because I love my fellow men. ‘‘At the last it biteth like a serpent and stingeth like an adder”— and they bite and sting to the death. What I can do to make my state and coun try a better, safer place for boys and men and women, is my bounden duty to do. I may be classed as narrow and fanatical, but I stand un ashamed. The Drys are fanatics, and 1 gladly stand with this goodly class of citizens. Professional Cards IRBY D. GILL Attorney & Counselor at Law Phone 2281 Zebulon, North Carolina DR. J. F.
