TOO OF A KIND o Last week as a man walked to his business from dinner he saw a white man come out of the ABC store with a bottle of liquor. That night as he went home he saw a negro come out of the store with a bottle of liquor. What was the dif ference? On the outside one was white and the other black. On the inside both are of the same color. Really there was not as much difference as one might imagine. In essential qualities they were “two of a kind” and there was no difference. oOo THEN AND NOW o This is the story a farmer told us the other day: Back in ’32 he plowed up a corner of his cotton field—about an acre. This week he had a letter from Jno. C. Anderson, county farm agent in Wake, saying if he would find a certain little pink slip and send him, he would pay him $2.52 for that acre of cotton he plowed up five years ago. In looking through his papers he found a check dated May, 1923, for SBOO, one that he had written and presented to the bank and received the cash for it. He was so excited that he forgot the little pink slip that would en able him to get $2.52 for an acre of cotton! “Just think,” said he, “I wrote that check and drew out that SBOO, and crammed it into my pocket. I did not need it for any special pur pose. I got it out for spending money; just for spending money!” We could moralize on this incident, but knowing human nature, we fear it would be wasted time and space. Like the old negro preacher we agree “dat de sun do move” and also that time changes things. In a few years that farmer found changes that astounded him. To those of us living today, we wonder what the next quarter of a century will bring to us— money, success, happiness, or poverty, failure, sorrow, and perhaps death. . oOo TRADE AT HOME o < Dr. Russell H. Conwell had a great lecture from which he received milions of dollars. He called it Acres of Diamonds. Before delivering that lecture in a town, he would go and look it over for possible undeveloped resources and op portunities. Then from that study he would de- It is not considered correct to re. j fer to two men or two women as a couple. The word refers to two persons of opposite sex, bound to each other by ties of affection or by marriage. NOTICE OF SALE OF REAL PIROPERTY Under and by virtue of the pow ers contained in a certain Judg ment of the Superior Court of Wake County, North Carolina, en tered in an action therein pending entitled The Town of Zebulon Vs. G. S. Williams, et als., the under, signed Commissioner will on Mon day, 31st day of October, 1938, at 12 o’clock Noon, at the Courthouse <k>or of Wake County, in the City of Raleigh, North Carolina, offer for sale to the highest bidder for cash the following described lands and premises, to-w T it: THE ZEBULON RECORD, ZEBULON, NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY.OCTOBER7, 1938. Beginning at a point on east side of Arendell Ave. 185 feet from Sycamore Street runs thence south with Arendell Ave. 55 feet to a stake; thence easterly paral lel with Medlin and Ferrell line 185 feet to an alley; thence along said alley 55 feet to a stake, Med lin and Ferrell’s corner; thence with Medlin and Ferrell’s 185 feet to the beginning and being the same lands conveyed to J. H. Wil liams by Deed recorded in Book 451, at page 240 in the office of Register of Deeds for Wake coun ty. The successful bidder or bidders are required to deposit 10 per cent in cash of their bid with the under signed Commissioner at the time of the sale, to show good faith. This sale is made subject to con. firmation of the Court. This the 26th day of September, liver his address, showing his hearers that there were acres of diamonds lying all about them if they would only pick them up. People spend hours of time and gallons of gas going to Durham, Raleigh, Rocky Mount and towns even farther away to sell tobacco and buy merchandise, when all the expense might be saved and as good prices found nearer home— perhaps at home. A merchant and farmer said the other day: “Wendell is a better tobacco market than Durham. I have carried several loads to market, going twice to Durham and ev ery time I sold tobacco on the Wendell market it brought a better price than the other did on the Durham market.” He very positively affirmed from his experience that Wendell is a better to bacco market than Durham. This has been this paper’s contention all along, that if one de ducts the loss of time and the extra expense in hauling his tobacco to the more distant market, that he will net more profit by selling his crops at home. By trading at home one shows loyalty, but if he can save money by doing so, then he has a reason that should induce him not only to trade at home, but also to advise his neighbor to do likewise. oOo WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE! We have remarked and have heard others remark about the decision reached by the four great rulers of Europe as to the little republic of Czechoslovakia. Some condemn, others praise them. England and France had guaran teed the integrity of Czechoslovakia. To fail her was to make her treaty a ‘‘scrap of paper,” a thing which the world has not forgiven Ger many for after years. Like a leak in a dike, the march of Hitler might have been stopped a year or even six months ago by a concerted, pos itive stand by these powers, but they waited too long. In spite of the injustice done to the little country, somehow we feel glad there is to be no war now. But we believe that within five years Hitler will not only repossess all that Germany lost in the great war, but will add yet other territory to her domains. Russia’s Soviet newspaper, Pioneer Pravda, expresses our opinion and conviction more clearly and definitely than we possibly could in the following words: “As might have been expected, nothing good for peace or Czechoslovakia came out of the Munich conference. “It was not a real conference, but a bar gain between four imperial beasts of prey, with England and France paying for postponement of a World War with slices of the unfortunate Czechoslovakia republic. “Under the appearance of defending the peace, the big capitalist states surrendered the small country to be torn to pieces by German Fascists. “The governments of England and France tried to conceal their crime under loud protesta tions about safeguarding the peace of Europe.” However, the story continued, “cowardly and treacherous conduct by England and France has not postponed, but hastened” devel opments leading to a world conflict. 1938.
