It has struck me from time to time that there are so many things which could be Improved in the average pa rV, Yes, even The TWfibar, which far above the average, could Be 1 benefitted by my iinfls. NotV I Might not have any subscrib ers to my paper nor might advertis ers flock to pay me for the use ot its pages, but it would be a greatly improved sheet. Anyway, I have no need for money and would probably not want any advertisements in the paper. They detract from the gen eral tone, don’t you think? Mr. Sher rill says yes. One of the first rules I would make would be the banishing of certain topics from my news columns. Neith er Floyd Collins nor W. B. Cole would, ever be mentioned. Governor Morri son would suffer from a curtailment of space in bis utterances and all his arguments about? the state deficit, or lack of deficit, would get never more than a non-p«riel -type tvhile the great ,er part of it would be set in agate, ' For the uninitiated in newspaper, jargon, I might explain that non-pagel type is smaller than that ordinarily used.vwhile the latter would be almost impossible to read. There arc other changes which I would make in the news sections but r pass lightly over them. it Is the social department that mnny, many innovations would be instituted. The motto for my society" editor would be: “the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.” Her office would, of course, be hemb-proof and bullet-proof, to give ner protection against any who might become incensed at what she had said. It might even be better to acquire some husky 200-pound foot ball player, a fullback, to take the job of writing up the society items. He wouldn't be as likely to sustain injury. As an example of the sort of stuff 1 should demnnd, I clip excerpts from iny first personal column: "Miss Claudia Club-foot, who says she is from Charlotte but who really makes her home in Pineville, is the 1 unattractive visitor of Mr. and Mrs. I, O. Everybody on Xortli Avenue. When invited hire before, she didn’t have a date during the entire time she tvas in Concord." . '• ■ “Miss Marilia Magpie and Mr. Den ton Dumbbell motored to Charlotte to day In the latter's broken down Ford where they, had luncheon at ope of the dirtier of the hot-dog stands. | Later they attended a movie Which I Miss Magpie paid for out of her last week’s salary.” I And from a Adding, I have the i following: I “A CPremony, which whs of little • interest to anybody in tdwn.*was sole emnlzed last niglit of the Cnurclk op the Holy syrail when Afiss Iva Long Neck became the bride of T. Berry Cftpwinggum. “The church had been specially dec orated for the the bride’s brother having borrowed W number of ferns and flowers; most of which were I wilted, for the occasion. Two or three candle-sticks shed a puny light over the scene until they incited, as I c'ahtll'es will do In hot weather, and had to be extinguished by the janitor to keep them from dripping on the carpet. "Just before the ceremouy, I Lost Chord wailed- out some of her most atrocious stuff about love’s dreum ever heard in the city. Her vpicc was even more rhsping than . usual.

Hlic was quite as homely as usuaj In a gown of white sateeh tpinp Imed in ten cent insertion. A veil of imitution real laee, helped a flttle, hiding part of her face ami figure.

He hopes to be able to get some odd jobs when lie and his bride return from their wedding tour to Denver and Mooresville." There arc other improvements which I have in mind but which I shall not detail at the present time. , If you like my idea, however, as' they say over tlie radio, be sure and drop me a card. Or, better still.

He was valient pro tagonist for Vance and Vance’s cause in 1876, when tlie state was wrested from the rerohstruetion regime, in ' the Vanee-Settlf campaign. Another notable contribution as :i 1 winning factor in a major political 1 campaign wasrin file Simmons-Kiteh ’ en-Clark campaign for the United 1 States Senate, in which Editor Harris ’ with characteristic persistence and unrelenting advocacy, secured Sim -1 mons’ nomination. Another notably successful edito rial triumph was the Morrison-Gard n»i'-Page_gubernatorial campaign in 192(). in which’he drd the major edi torial fighting among state editors in advocacy of Morrison as the logical man for the place. He was con sistently a strong advocate of Morri son's program of progress that has turned the eyes of ttie nation on North Carolina. • In 1916 Mr. Harris was a delegate 1 from North Carolina to the national Democratic convention that noinihSt ed Woodrow Wilson for the second time at fit.
