Motorists are being advised to avoid the highways of the county, and its law enforce ment methods are appearing in State pallet*!. Disquieting rumors regarding Sam|won’s officials in that respect have been current for some time. Os late, however, they have become more noticeable, and within the past few days news (stories in tile Wilm ington Star and the Raleigh News at.d Observer has been decidedly dis creditable to Samp-on. Solicitor .lames Powers, who was in Clinton this week, was askisl for an opinion oil these methods. He re plied that while technically the ar rest by mail might he legal, that it certainly was a loose practice, and should not be indulged in. He fur ther volunteered that he would in struct all magistrates to discontinue such practice, and see that all parties subject to arrest are brought into court and given proper trial. The condemnation of the arrests in Wilmington is especially severe. Travelers through that city are being advised to use any other route than Route 60 through Sampsooi, being told that they will be arrestea here. Members there of the Carolina Auto club, a powerful state organization, are reported to have appealed to their State headquarters for aid in making war on Sampson. Civic bodies have also had the matter up for consideration and Sampson has coine in for much bad publicity, which it will take many* months to live down. The letter cited by the Wilming ton Star gave the name of the Clin ton Justice of Peace, who under takes to arrest by mail, as J. M. Weeks. Gentlemen, Don’t Do It. Stanly News-Herald.

(iirls shfinld discredit all film foolish talk about age. If you really love a limn, die regard his age. A man who is advanced in years knows enough of tlie world to be npitreciatlve of his younger bride, much more than a man of less mature .years. The man who has gone <sn in years realizes that his first duty is to make home pleasant, but the young men ot to day. when they have been married a little time and the glamor of romance dies out, wish to return to the com panions of single days, with the in evitable result of the divorce court. I believe that 'giro should marry men many years older than them, selves, vtho are better fitted to give them a happier life than the majority of the foolish love lorn voyths. * CATHERINE ik "The scandal mongers are always saying things about Charlie aud my self” eompailcd the giddy young divorree. “I’m sure their marks are unjusti fied,” conspfed the widower. “Thafs just what mmakes it so hard."
