THAT STATE PRINTING PLANT AGAIN o Some time ago this paper called attention to a persistent effort being made by certain people in Raleigh to dispense with the printery at State Prison and establish one at State Col lege. Our own opinion is that if the state can establish any sort of enterprise within the peni tentiary profitably with prison labor, turning out work for the state, then let it. Little manu facturing of any sort can be done in the prison that is not competitive with private business. If the state could establish a plant that would take care of all the state printing at a saving, then we believe it should do it. However, we do not believe the state could do it. Many of the prisoners are unskilled. Many of them, should they become efficient, would probably be released about the time they became profitable. By the state s having a small plant of its own it can experiment in a way that will enable it to know what printing ought to cost and thus aid in getting reason able bids. Yet we understand this at present is expensive business. So far as letting State College take over the plant—we believe nothing would be gained to the state. No doubt the college would con vert the plant into a self-help agency. It would absolutely be necessary for them to do actual printing if practical. It would do all the col lege printing at first and most likely go after other state work. Having a more intelligent group to work with than the prison, the shop would become in time a far greater competitor of private printing than the prison shop. The same and greater arguments can be used against a plant in the college than can be used against the prison shop. It is quite clear that such a plant would necessarily produce op erators, pressmen and such, for if not. why have a plant? Instead, get a text book on the print ing industry and teach the theory. Emphasis is laid on training men for salesmen in the print ing industry. We know a number, in fact about SEEN AND HEARD CHARACTER OR REPUTATION. One frequently bears some one trying to make a distinction be tween character and reputation. D. I). Ohamblee, well known citizen and insurance man, is believed to have both of a goodly sort. How. ever, D. D. is not so well known in New York. A short time ago he applied for insurance on his car, making application to a com pany which he has been represent ing 15 years. Now Phillip Massey reports on the reliability of citi z< who seek insurance or other benefits abroad. He got a letter fio*-> he insurance company ask ing . ut the character and relia bi lit Mr Chamblee, especially aski * when he had the last wreck with his car. Mr. Massey interviewed a lawyer, a hanker and a preacher. Then he wrote the insurance folks that Mr. Chamblee was all right, that he was a good risk. So D. IX is hap ly. He got his policy and still re tains both his good character and reputation. SHOWING OFF When one tries showing himself off, he soon loses prestige with the public, but when he gets him. self in the background and shows somebody else off—well, that is different. Wayland and Joe Rich ardson are visiting in and around Zebulon. They had not seen each other for three years. In the in terim Joe took a wife and now has a beautiful son. Wayland came down the street Wednesday with the baby, showing it to 'most every one who would look. He could hardly seem prouder if it were hi- own child. It is a beau tiful one and we cannot blame Wavland’s wanting to show it off. Rut as a woman said, Wayland was always very fond of children —a fine trait in any one. THIS SHOWS INTEREST On last Sunday.a certain Z“bu lon matron arrived at Sunday School, found that instead of her lesson quarterly she had taken with her the catalog of the 5- all successful salesmen in the printing business have no technical knowledge of printing. We understand that the head man in most of the plants in Raleigh could not get out a first-class job alone. Again we want to say we do not believe it is wise or practical to transfer the state owned printing shop from the prison to the College. Should this be done it .is our opinion that the present little shop that is said to be operating at ( a loss would become a big one operated at a far greater loss. The state or government has little business being actively engaged in busi ness and our colleges have no business in it whatsoever. oOo TWO SIDES o Dr. Gambrell, a great Texas preacher said on an occasion, there are three sides to every question—your side, my side and the right side. In Ralaigh last week a judge banished two guilty ones from the city rather than let the law be administered to them for their crimes. That was the wrong way to administer the law, much less justice. They should have been sent to prison instead of into an innocent community to continue violating the law. A short time ago a judge in Dunn left the dignity of the bench to give vent to his feelings of contempt for a woman unproven guilty. Such departure from justice is calculated to make hardened criminals and wicked outlaws of the transgressors. It is time for such judicial administrators to consider the right side. If a defendant is proven guilty, then the court should administer justice tempered with mercy in such a manner as to redeem the criminal and re-save society. oOo THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE LAW oOo Lawyers as a class have been accused of de laying justice or seeking every avenue to evade it for their clients benefit. Lately we have known instances of a member of this profession flaying his brethren for unethical practices and ob structing justice otherwise. We agree with the judge who gives a man a second chance when he comes before his honor for a minor offence. But when a man has been convicted time after time, we beieve it is time to put the set screws of the law on him to force him to conform to its demands. In our local Recorder’s Court we have notic ed for sometime the tendency to let offenders off with the costs or a small fine and costs, even when the defendent has a record. We do tiot know who is responsible for this, judge of soli citor, or both, but we believe a stiff fine or a sentence to the roads would help greatly to stop a lot of disorderly conduct and even more of fences against the peace and welfare of the peo ple in our community. County Fair. ACK N O'W LEDGED M IST AK E When mistakes occur in the Record Shop it is frequently hard to decide whose was the fault. An exception was when last week’s paper an nounced Wakelon’s opening on Sept. 14. In answer to dis mayed questions Ferd Davis said: “I am entirely respon sible. i set that head Wake Forest in my mind tlte time, thinking of enrollifl thereon the lllh.” Rul Wakelon had a opening, anyway. ■■ H \r: ut. i - ua; tobacco wormHH| the plariHH ’ *■•<••• ha v< h< >■!. cured and HH| * d jo Guilford H| ■ W Stanle;, ofH| - '’■ ' Vet :ij H| 'll' : i- fa. or falo r< k and warned grow< i - o examine their pH|| toba'■<•(< for the worm, whi<Hß av * may co-t farmer thou Mil Donors Os Fair Prizes Below are listed the Donors of of prizes for the 5-County fair, Zebulon, Sept. 19-24: Florida Fruit Canners, Inc., Wor cester Salt Co., The Franklin Sugar Refining Co., American Mo lasses Co., Dixie-Portland Flour Mills, W.
