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.

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.

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
