No School Bases in Five Counties of the
State
The Uplift. j -!
Elsewhere in this number is a oom
pllatiou of the activities of the school
buses for the ninetyfive counties in North
Carolina. Five counties do not figure
in thin evidence of progress and consid
eration of the rural child. They are
alphabetically Alleghany, Cabarrus, Cher
okee, Macon and Perquimans.
These buses are a part of the construc
tive administration of rural school af
fairs. The elimination of one and two
teacher schools, the consolidation of dis
tricts and adequate school facilities com
mensurate with justice to the rural child
were the outstanding .objectives of all
nsrgm dvo counties, whose administra
tors sought to function efficiently.
You Can’t Fool All of the

With all the confusion, misunderstanding and general lack
of information on the subject of tire buying, one might
think Ahrahatji Lincoln coined his famous phrase after an
experience in tirC buyig.
The truth of what he said as applied to tires is best sum
med up today in this statemen of fact: ""
MORE PEOPLE RIDE ON GOODYEAR TIRES THAN
ON ANY OTHER KIND.
Os course there is a real reason. t- s

Begins in the Kitchen
< An Oriole Gas Range Benefits the

The last room to economize on is the kitchen. An up-to-date
gas range contributes more to home comfort and enjoyment
than anything else in the house.. It will pay you to get a new
gas range NOW—at the SALE PRICE. Don’t wait—come
in today—there’s still time left, but none to spare.
PRICES REDUCED

Remember that these reduced prices on the famous ORIOLE
Gas Ranges embodying the'finest features of construction and
the latest improvements. Wide -variety of styles, sizes and

It was hoped that when Cabarrus re- ’
pudiated a former administration and set
up practically a new board of school ad
ministration that the schools of the coun
ty might enjoy the fruits of a construc
tive and progressive direction. Some of
these days may it not be possible for a
single county, in ‘excusing itself for the
non-performance of a real duty, to point
to us and say, in the language of the im
mortal Aycpck, '"Thank God for Cabar
rus.” > i
A proud people living in the very
heart of the greatest state in the South,
and suffering but little in comparison
with others, grow weary in seeing its
county classified at the tail-end of every,
progressive measure that involves a square
deal to the rural child.

Greensboro and High Point Road Will
Be Widened.
Lexington Dispatch.
J. Elwood Cox, member of the State
highway, commission from the fifth dis-'
triet, Ms announced that the High Point-
Greensboro road will be widened as soon
as the work can be financed.
At the last meeting ■of the commis
sion at Raleigh, Mr. Cox sueceededd in
having recorded a vote that the road be
widened as soon as the state can get to
it and can finance it.
The road, Mr. Cox stated, will be
made thirty feet wide, and will be she
only road in the state of that width. Con
crete shoulders probably will adjoin the
asphalt, making this road not only one
of convenience to motorists, but perhaps |
the most attractive thoroughfare in this:
section. (
It likely will be sometime before the
work of widening the road is started. As
a matter of fact, the highway commie- 1
sion has no intentions of launching the \
projeet until a wsy of financing it is
worked out. An expenditure of several
hundred thousand dollari will be neces
sary to bring tne work to a completion.!
At present the road is only seventeen feet
wide and therefore six and a half feet
rs concrete must be built on each side
of the present asphalt thoroughfare, in
order to give the entire road a width of
thirty feet.
Only two “donkey wells” now remain
in Eng'and, both dating from the early
part of the seventeenth century. In
these wells donkeys walk inside a huge
wheel, causing It to revolve and draw
water from the depths of the enrth.
