C as second-class matter. New Bern, N. C, May 17, 1907. WITHOVT IK TENDED OFFENSE AMD WITH APOLOGIES. ' The memory and effect of the cold spring wind'is not so far past, as to make ' the usual spring congratula tions, of all spring's lovely creations tor man to be a thing forgotten. , Much is forgiven in spring. Hu man nature, except of the most for bidden kind, gladly welcomes both the Dew flowers and the soft rains. Human nature of the right sort, grows more mellow, in the spring, and welcomes any change which makes the wintry days, forgotten. - The man without spring bilious ness, has a tender sentiment about him, during these days of spring. He is not critical, except in his desire for the early onion and all of the other tender herbs, that go under the style of "garden truck." Of the more tender sentiments such as poetry, at this season there is not critical ana lysis, to see if the metrical composi tion is true, or if the sentiment is high sounding. "The curfew tolls the knell of part ing pie, The pantry shelf is empty, too, per se; ' The pudding's gone, the cook has said good-by , i . And left the World to hunger and to me." Every man's mind will at once go back to boyhood days, after reading the above verse, and will recall with ' tweet sad ' memory the closing day, the poet tells of. "And have you ever loved before?" He asked, "I pray you, speak!" She blushed; her sweet eyes sought the floor. She answered: "Not this week." , The poet thus writes of the girl be . terms, "modern." Who cares, she is at least honest "Man is a queer contradiction i, When all is done and said. He buys dope by the gallon To raise hair upon his head, .. Then he goes to the barber ' And blows his money in Almost dally, in an effort To keep hair off his chin." - Is even the guilty man going to get mad when he reads the above? He might in winter or summer, but he will laugh at in the spring time. It might be the Impecunious young maa who would envy the youth jf whom the poet lays: In days of old, When knighto were bold,' , And sheetiron trousers wore. They lived in peace, For then a crease ' Would last 10 years or more," but then he will not get really pro voked. , r,, Scientists fill the papers with the spring time dangers of germs and ba cilli and files and yet like the po liceman's warning to "keep oft the grassV the Impulse is to rush Into danger, defy the scientists and accept the penalties that may be incurred; v - "If germs do lurk On every Hp, To give the kissing Man the grip, Where is the man ' ' Who'd care to be Grlpless through all ' ' Eternity? : -Why, such a man Is but a worm! True men will cry, "Bring on your germ!" And yet amid nil the gayety of buds and lloioins, of birds and love mak l 1, yet comes some dim thought Of t' a f '-ire. Of twme possibility, as it f.ti n obstruction to man's tmal V ;-. l l,.a4iie8. It may La Cat tle 5 I ''-t t',U r i hd.1 fyhig " t. ! i tin .. 9 i f i r r r i v.: 'i I ' - C ' ;:, ! -j .

We long for days ot yore,' . For ladies' duds dont these days grow On bushes any more." . ' DEMAND FOB ADDITIONAL GRAD. ED SCHOOL BOOM. ' In calling attention to the need of an auditorium tor the graded school, there should not be forgotten or over looked the fact, . that the . present school room and teaching facilities are already over taxed. If this so at present, what is to be expected next fall when there must be more child ren seeking admittance than there are today? - . -.: 1 It is doubtful if the trustee's ot the school, and the parents who have .v.- ... children to send to school, are fully aware ot the actual heeds of the grad ed school. To some, the advocacy of an auditorium, may seem a superfluity and extravagance. But when school rooms become over crowded, and "pu pils cannot receive the attention they ought, and other children cannot gain admission, it cannot be charged as extravagance, to provide suitable and necessary room, and to be able to give attention to each and every pu pil applying for a chance to enter school, and to not impose extra duties upon any teacher, because of an over crowded school room. The question of securing the East ern Normal school, sinks into insig nificance, compared to the issue, of giving the home children of this city, the school accommodations that .are due them, and which every parent feels fully entitled to, as a taxpayer and citizen, f 20,000 to $30,000 coulrf be well and profitably expended in graded school betterment, and really necessary additions to - the present school equipment This city has an obligation to perform in caring for the education, and providing suitably, the means, whereby its children may receive this education. It $20,000 is demanded for needed school purpoaeH it is not a question ot hesitation in promptly spending the $20,000. If it is needed, and inadequate school fa cilities exist, it Is neglect on the part of those who have the graded school in charge. Now is the time to go into this matter, not next, fall, when child ren will have to be turned away, be cause ot want of school facilities to take them. .' A few days, and the pres ent school year is over. ThVneeds of the future are already pressing upon the graded school, and call for Imme diate attention. LOCAL BUSINESS CONFIDENCE ATTRACTS OUTSIDE LNYESTORS Capital as a rule, does not ruBh Into a town or city, if the local sentiment in the place lacks buslnes confidence in the future of the place. The people of Wilmington, our sis ter city recently voted $900,000 for municipal improvements. This looks like a big bond vote, a big municipal debt to assume. So It would be, if the citizens of Wilmington lacked in lo cal confidence. But when people are ready to vote a blgsum for local im provements, there la the local faith, that believes that every dollar of debt, means ten dollars in community gain. It is the men and women' who make cities, the cities do not , make ' the character, and inspire Its Inhabitants. Therefore the average outsider the man with money to Invest, would see in Wilmington" a good place for his money, because the citizens of that place, without hesitation .are agreed to bond themselves for a big sum, to further improve their municipality. . I There Is this same question coming to the citizens of New Bern. What is your confidence in your city? How much will yon vote for needed local improvements? This local , improve ment matter is not to be argued from the point of how little oan be voted, to secure city Improvements that will just do for the present What is need ed la an expression In the spirit, of how much can we vote for Improve merits for today and tomorrow and for the future. We, the people of New fcern have a full confidence in our city today. Having this confidence, we therefore propose to show how irui this confidence is, by voting ponds tlmt shall develop and ninlce a rory much hHtor and greater I.'avr l -rii i.i Je f..t :. SHORT TALKS BY J L. T. COOPER. DEBILITY. 7 Many people who talk to me say: "1 feel half sick allthe time. I dont Just know what's th matter with me This ia general debility. It's very 4 I common. Peopl ) I 1TUU Sjc ' shape aave my sympathy., They arn't sick enough for. bed o they 1 drag around and their families get exasperated with them. There are two X. UC DADS. cansea for this condition ; bad habits and a weak stomach. By bad habits I mean eating irregularly and too fast and not chew lng the food thoroughly. The stom ach gives out and loss of appetite, biUiousues, constipation, and general debility result. First get the stomach in shape and then be more careful in the future, and the worn out, despond ent, half sick feeling; will be a thing of the past. " Two bottles of Cooper's New Dis covery will put the stomach in shape. Common sense will do the rest. Ther are fifty thousand people la thb country who know this to be true b" cause they 'vjt tried.it. . w - Here's a letter from one of them: "I was all run down from overwork, lost ambition and energy and couM not sleep. . It was difficult for me t attend to my work owing to that tired out feelinjr. I secured two bottles of the New Discovery medicine and de termined to try it :The result de lighted me for renewed strength and vigor and energy came with the first few doses. It's effect was different from anything I had ever taken. 1 finished the two bottles now and feci well and strong again," K: McDade, 839 Dix Ave., Detroit, Mich. - We hear favorable reports of thetrt famous medicines every day. Ask Oi about them. . -. v Bradham's Pharmacy; Cor. Pollock & Middle Sts. pluyed. The outsider with money will have no hesitation in placing his money here, because there is the lo cal confidence which does not fear; and a people who have no hesitation to-pledge themselves by bonds, that their city will become all that they believe it will. $100 KEWABD, 1100.
