LOST PROVINCE
RECLAIMED
Im* t week the North Carolina Press
Association met in Its STtti annual
meeting in Elizabeth City. Our read
ers are not interested in the doings
<H the Press Association, and jrther
than to say that the Press A^pdciation
has never met in any pl^ce where
store consideration ior ps pleasure
watf shown than at Elizabeth City, we
will not dwell on .that phase of the
matter. To mahy it was their first
visit to this part of the State, and
ttoey were amazed at the things they
?*aw. It is easily the most favored
-acricuJtural part of the State, and we
candidly assert that if the farmers in
that great section worked as hard,
^th the same good judgment
uned by the farmers of this County
ttaey would grow rich. They do not
have to depend on one money crop,
but have three. Yes, we saw large
fields in cultivation in which there
were cotton, tobacco and peanuts,
acres and acres o* each: and such
land. It .would make the mouth of
the farmer in this section water
smooth. fyee from rocks or stumps,
and as rich as the most fertile bot
tom lands.
This section of North-Eastern North
Carolina formerly belonged, as far as
commerce and traffic were concerned,
to Norfolk, but the building of good
roads has reclaim? C 11 mid nun It
Is a part and parcel of North Caro
lina. And it was worth the price, if
ng other roads had been built , of the
millions put into roads save those in
North-Eastern Carolina it would have
been money well spent. However,
they must have some fine politicans
?or wire-pullers down that way. for
we verily believe every county we
patsed through has at least five times
as much hard surfaced roads as we
possess in this good County. But it is
a fine section of North Carolina, and
if the people down that way are not
appreciative and have not turned their
eyes, in a ?usiness way. to Raleigh
-and other cities, they are of all men
the most unappreciative.
We no longer measure distance in
this State by miles, but it is by hours,
and Rocky Mount. Wilson, Raleigh.
Goldsboro. and even Wilmington are
cwtfy a few hours from Elizabeth City;
and all this has copie about by the
vision of those who labored for ? the
first fifty million dollar appropriation
Tor good roads. No money, to our way
?of thinking, has ever meant quite so
much to the State as that put in good
road?. and the Morrison administra
tion will go down m history noted for
what *af accomplished a long these
lines. An<1 it was well.

THE JOY OF SERVING
This beautiful morning I left my
bed earl**; put on part of my clothing,
and went t,o a front window where a
rocker stood waiting. I love to watch
early morning passers, while my morn
ing paper is coming.
The newsboy presently appeared.
With him was k much smaller boy ?
evidently a brofher ? not over five at
the vefy ipost. This little fellow car
ried three i or four papers under his
tiny arm. Proudly he strode beside
his senior, his eyes dancing with de
light. at the trust reposed in him. I
could not hear his words, but he
evidently asked if he should deliver
my paper; the big brother nodded, as
any great personage might nod in
approval of a subordinate.
The tiny boy dashed up my steps
? seven of them, and it required el
fort for his short legs to accomplish
the man-size elevation; how he swung
and glowed and smiled in the sweet
morning -air, wholly oblivious to the
. spectacled eyes that watched him from
behind the lace curtain! With an ex
pression of profound interest, he sing- |
led out one of the three papery and
: placed it carefully at the bottom of ,
my door, just as near to putting it i
? in my hand asi possible; then he" turn- I
ed and sped away, laughing, as fast
as those short leg* could carry' him.
His financial accomplishment could
not have been over a half -cent gain ? j
no. it was that; the little tellow wa^ ^
in glee because he could do something
good? something useful for somebody,
and do it well. For him. the delivery
of that newspaper was a super-accom
piishment. Hac I been fully dressed.
I might have frightened him by rush
ing out and seizing the darling in my
arms. . , i
Do we grown-ups get a 'kick'" out
of the worthy deeds we do for others. ;

The feminine halrdrcss calls lor
more than distinctive style to be per
fectly successful. It calls for texture,
gloss and finish as well.
And this Is not alone to be at
tained through purely artificial means
The credo of hair beauty is the belief
and the practise of the 'tremendous
ly important) dally brushing. There
is no better way to develop hair
beauty. The softness and lustre which ,
come from this regular care cannot
be duplicated, not even with a pint \
of brllliaptlne.
II Is more than merely surface
beauty which brushing develops It is
the sheen of health and scalp ac- |
tlvity and no artificial aid can stim
ulate this.
The most succesfsul way to brush
the hair Is with military brashes.
Wh*n using hand brushes the pres
sure falls directly on the hair instead
of being distributed between the scalp
an* the handle of the brash. Also,
the military brushes make for an
even regularity pf movement.
After one week of rVgutar brushing i
vou won't recognise your hair. I
cannot understand why so many wo
men neglect this so Easily cultivated I
Dart of their beauty
. Next In Importance In developing '
tjie loveliness of your hair is the fre- !
went use of a tonic Many of
vou. I find ask me about hair tonics
when there is definite injur.- to be
corrected. "^whether it be premature
praying. falling h^!r cr broken dry
strand*. A hair tonic should be more
than a corrective to you It_ is first
of all a preventive of all those con
ditions of hair ill health.
There are three classifications of
hfcir ? the normal, the dry and the
oily, and the tonic you select should
be specifically suited to your particular
type. Rub "l t well into the scalp, a
drop at a time, using the very ends
of your fingertips, not the cushioned
pads .of. the first joint of your fingers.
Not only will the tonic stimulate hair
growth and strengthen- thf root#, but
it,wiU help along the good work of
brushing until a fine, natural gloss |
has become a permanent feature of
your charm.
The third Important unit in culti
vating the high lights of hair beauty
is that much used, often abased pro
duct ? brilliant Ine There are certain
arrangement* of the hair which de
mand the maximum of lustre. The
satlnsmoofh bob Is one such style, j
and to thoae' who wear this type of
halrtfres*. 1 address the caution ? a ,
very little brilHantlne goes a long,
long way. One single drop in the
palm of your hand and then rubbed
briskly into the hair brush will be
more than sufficient for the average
person. Another method of apply
ing brllltantlnt 1* by placing a drop
or two In the palm of one hand,
rubbing both hands together, then 1
smoothing on the hair.

In Pellagra Fight
Raleigh ? Stnce pellagra is control!- r

"To aid the medical authorities and

Mrs. Jfiie S. .McKlmmon. state home

ber of deaths in 1928 was an increase I
of 23 per cent oyer 1927 and if proper

this scourge, we jfcallbe glad to as- :

Mrs. McKlmmon says that Miss !
Mary Thomas, nutrition specialist in '
the home demonstration department;
has prepared a diet sheet based on
the recommendations of Dr. Joseph
Goldberger. who is ?n authority on"
thf disease. When the diet is im- 1
proved by the addition of fresh lean
meat, eggs and- milk, the disease
controlled. Mrs. McKimmon says that
her home agents will aid any family 1
in selecting such parts of a pellagra -

on the farm. The agents fwill also <
aid in making plans for the garden, t
