These and a great many other questions are being asked and will be asked during the next few weeks. But right off the bat, you can’t guess who he is. He lives on a farm not far from Zebulon. He has a good home and a good farm. He also has a family of fine boys and girls. He comes to Zebulon fre quently. He does his buying and selling here. He also transacts his bank business at the local bank. He is a church member. He votes in all elections. Now can you guess who Elmer is? Well, I am sure you do not know him. You probably know some one very much like Elmer, but you do not know Elmer. There is something about him that is just different. If you will watch the columns of the Record for the next year you will see a great deal about Elmer and his “comings and goings”. Every issue of the Record will tell you something in teresting about this mysterious man. And if you will read all that is said about him, you will learn something that will be valuable to you. You may already know it, but he will say things, do things, that will remind you of opportuni ties you let slip. Just wait and watch for Elmer. He will be “in print” every week for months and months. Watch him. Follow him. Do as he does. And you will find it profitable in many ways. WAKELON THEATRE ZEBULON, N. C.

Weekly Constitutional anuresE fry MAX BERN* How do our Courts provide a safe guard for the people and the gov ernment? In his book on Constitutional Government, Woodrow Wilson says: “Our courts are the balance-wheel of our whole constitutional system, and ours is the only constitutional system so balanced and controlled. Other constitutional systems lack complete poise and certainty of op eration because they lack the sup port and interpretation of authori tative, Indisputable courts of law. “It Is clear beyond all need of ex position that for the definite main tenance of constitutional under standings it is indispensable, alike for the preservation of the individ ual, and for the preservation of the Integrity of the powers of the Gov ernment, that there should be some non-political forum In which those understandings can be impartially debated and determined. That forum pur courts supply. 9 Lees Chapel Items Miss Margie Lee Driver spent part of last week with her cousin. Mr. and Mrs. Dallas Price spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Otha Price.
