There were sales in the local market ! yesterday, of 50 bales of cotton at 8J. Two cases were up before the mayor yesterday for failing to obey sanitary regulations. Some people look uptn sanitary inspection in the light of a meddlesome arrangement which is a mistaken view af it Upon the sanitary conditions depend the health of a com munity and people should not wait to be driven by law to clean up their prem ises, but each and every one should make it a personal matter to see that the surroundings are kept in a cleanly and healthy condition.

Tjiei president says that he could not change' his- itinerary for this tour. Senator Simmons thinks the President will majceithe visit a part of his itinerary in 1937 when he willvisit the Jamestown Exposition celebration. There was quite an unusual feature of Mr. Peel's visit Unseeing the presence of a Croatan Indian, named Locklear, who had been sent fij-om his home in Robeson county bj the Roanoke county association. Locklear told the Presi dent as he shook the latter's hand that he was the first of his race to meet a President and therl in a very well word ed address invited ihe President to visit Roanoke Island, thi home of his an cestors. ; The President was very much gratified by the speech and the invita tion and expressed his pleasure at the novelty of it. i The historical commission has placed in the Hall of History a supurb picture of that distinguished North Carolinian and gallant soldier Major General Robt F, Hoke, who ranked among the very ablest of the Confederate officers, and who since the war has taken so prom inent a part in the up-building of his native state,' which has always desired to do him the honor he deserves.
