Dear Folks: Said Eddie'Sinith to Henry Long, “My business sure is bad. no more I'ui op timistic and no more I'm feeling glad. It's getting worse from day to day. I don't know what to do. what wonder then that I'm a grouch and always feel ing blue?’* So Henry spread the nev.'- around and folks began to moan, and said their business was wo poor, which added to the groan. And cure enough the times were bad for everyone in town, instead of business picking up, it started t go down. Said .Johnny Wise to Alfred White. “My business sure is good, it soon will reach the pinnacle I prayed and hoped it would. It's getting better day by day, it’s coming slow but sure, it makes me happy when l think of days when I was poor."’ So Alfred spread the news I around and folks began to. smile, and | said their business too was tine and prov ing worth the while. And sure enough, the times were good for everyone in town, and business started on the rise instead of falling down. The things you say come back to you, to cheer or make you blue, it all de pends on what you say. it's strictly up to you. So spread the gospel of good cheer instead of what you've missed, look up instead of looking down and be an optimist. < Cordially veins —T. V. It. THE FAIR A GREAT SUCCESS. The Second Annual Cabarrus County Fair was a great success in every way. the officials of the fair lived up to their slogan: “Better Than Advertised." During the first two days of the fair cold weather hurt the attendance, espe cially on the second day, but on Thurs day more than 23,000 persous passed in to the grounds, establishing a new record for fair attendance in this county and es tablishing fine of the best records ever made in the State. Persons from every part of this county were present during the fair and in addition there were hun dreds of visitors from adjoining conn ties. It would be twtrd to imagine a fair that was better managed than ho one held hero. So far as we were able to see there was no hiteli of any kind in the operation of the event and feature after feature was offered with a machine-like smooth ness. , Officials of the Cabarrus County Fair have spared uo expense in giving the people of the county a fair that ranks with the best in the South. They have spent their money for good stuff and the people have responded by attending in large numbers. To our mind thut's the secret of the success of the local fair. The people know they are going to get their money's ,worth. The visitors to the' fair grounds also are to be congratulated for the manlier in which they conducted themselves. The fair after all belongs to the people. They can muke or break it. This fact seems tfi be realized by visitors to the'fair for they have given no reason for the strong arm of the (aw to be exercised bn them. The conduct wus fipy throughout, a fact that meant much to women and children who at,, first' might have hesitated about ef.endip* mueh tin* at the grounds at <f Hvfeijvione who had a part in the work secretary. They have worked for the I money, time and energy have been domi i nating factors in the success of the fair. I SAY .AIR LINERS ASSURED. i The traffic manager of an Atlantic transportation company sees in the suc | cessful voyage of the ZR-3 a practical | assurance that the day of air liners for | intercontinental transportation is at hand. j The airship will be able to make trans ' Atlantic trips in forty-eight hours, he says, saving several days time over the fastest steamers now in use. He points out also a financial economy in the airship over the water vessel. A gigantic airship like the ZR-3 represents a construction investment, he says, of only about $2,000,000, as compared with $25,000,000 to $30,000,000 for the steam ship. The steamship crosses the ocean on 5.000 tons of oil at $7 per ton. as com pared with twenty tons for the airship. The steamship was a crew of from 500 to 1.000, while the dirigible is managed with a crew of twenty-five to thirty. Os course the airship built and operated at these figures, cannot carry anything like the number of passengers and freieght that the steamship can handle, but this traffic manager estimates hat the cost of the air trjp could easily be placed at half of the present price of a ticket on a^ mod ern liner. ■With the use of> helium as an infiatiou gas, this traffic manager believes the ait liner is every whit ns safe as the sturd iest steamship, and considering the fact that the time of the trans-Atlautic trip is divided by three, he estimates that the actual risks of the passage would be only a third as groat. It is not probable, of course, that the air craft will take the place of the steam ship. but it undoubtedly soon will be a very important auxiliary. Its chief val ue. it Seems, will be the swiftness with which it can negotiate a trip to and from Europe. / Mr. Dough ton Hopes to Carry Every Ceunty. Salisbury post. Congressman 11. L.

PUBLISHING OF INCOME TAX RETURNS UNLAWFUL New York Paper's Action Causes Stir at Capital—Gives Amount of Taxes. Washington. Oct. 24. —The publica tion in a New York paper of flip income j lax for 1923 of a number of well known ’ persons, among them John W. Davis, John Ft. Rockefeller. Jr., J. P. Morgan and E. H. Gary, caused a stir here to day. Many felt that the law had been violated, and that the persons named in the publication might have just ground for action for damages against tlie pa- : per. At any rate, that was the inter- J ; pretatioii of the law by Commissioner 1». -I. Blair, of the internal revenue bu reau. who said the bureau, on learning | of the publication of the tax returns, lmd 'instructed the internal revenue collectors for the state that the law did not per-. ti.it publication. Mr. Blair went on to say that the rev- \ euue act passed last spring by Congress i did the old law. which p ain- 1 lv forbade publication of income tax re- i tutus in any manner. The aetv law ; does permit any person who may desilre j to examine the returns to nee them, tut j not to speak of them to any other per i sou. When the revenue bill was under consideration in the Senate last spring i Senator Norris, of Nebraska, offered an amendment throwing the income tn.v re turns open -far publication in any news paper. hut this amendment was modified by the Senate finance committee, and ; afterwards by the conference • nomniit ! tee, sc. as to permit individual examina ition of returns, without "publication. , | The most interesting feature f the (publication was the over $75,000 income tax paid last year by John' VV. Denis. [A treasury official was ask.4l about the Davis income, on the basis of the above figures. He said it would depend whether or not Mr. Davis' income was j ihiefly derived from professional serv-i tees, vr from bends and securities, on j which a normal tax is nor levied. He j tjought it indicated Mr. Davis' income | was around $250,000 last year. The Davis income tax provoked a good deal of comment generally. Some Deni- 1 ocrats feared that the publication of such, a large income tax - return the Democratic candidate for President with-. (in ten days of the election would not! i helm him among a large class of per-! jsonis who are inclined to listen to the I c harge that he is a Wall Street law - Iyer. It was said, however, by some of i Mr. Davis’ friends, that while lie has been receiving a large income as a law yer, be is what might be called a “poor man." It is knoWn 'that his house at Locust Valley on Ismg Island is lieiv- j ily mortgaged. He lias been receiving a large income for only about three yeeprs. Secretary Hughes is listed as paying nr. income tax of $34,000. Before he bee a 111? secretary of slate, bis friends say, he was making as large a salary EVERETT TRUE BY CONDO f OH, HOL'D ON A SS-CON'D, SV&HeT*T L ' THAT 1-DA3 WACTCRS , , u -j I KiANT TO A4Y A FfeV 1 I—t kIORDS TO HIFV. | jZWjms*.
