This, picture brought to our
minds the deplorable fact that
there are entirely too many

SCOTLAND NECK IN THE
LIMELIGHT
Wherever one goes in North
Carolina and Virginia, and even
in some portions of other states,
Scotland Neck is spoken of in
the highest terms. Upon being
informed that one is from this
good town, the people begin to
compliment Scotland Neck. They
greet you with': "You are cer
tainly making wonderful strides
in that town now. What has
taken place? I don't even hear
the hotel complained of now,
but, to the contrary, they say
there i& no better place to stop
at, and traveling men are leav
ing other nearby towns to go
there '" And so it goes.
A stranger might wonder, but
the home people KNOW what is
doing it. The citizens have
awakened to the cold fact that a
united effort will accompli.-m
great things and they are bend
ing every energy and straining
every nerve to see that Scotland
Neck is the most progressive,
cleanest and best town in North
Carolina.
For lofty ideals and aspira
tions no town or Community can
boast of a better citizenship,
and for intelligence, where is
there a body of people that can
surpass' our home folk?
The keynote has been struck
and Scotland Neck will continue
to lead. Procrastination is the
only thing that has kept her back
so long.

shape I couldn't eat anything
but what would bloat me up
with gas so bad I just had to un

"I wish I had taken Tanlac
two years ago for it would have
saved me a lot of money and a
world of suffering. Six bottles
built me up so I can now climb
a fortv-foot laddeF as easilv as
anyone and my stomach troubles
are ended. Tanlac certainly
does everything they say it will."

At Dixie Theatre Tuesday and
Wednesday nights one of the
very best shows that have ever
come to Scotland Neck was pre
Sfnted. It was the famous
Mary Carr ?s i " Over the Hill. ' '
It poii rayed an American home
with a large family of children,
some good, otohers bad and indif
ferent; an indolent and worth
less father and a very deserving
mother.
The fehow was good thorough-
out, but the one feature of it
that impressed us more forcibly
than all the rest was the hypo
critical son, Isaac. Isaac, from
early childhood, was a Bible stu
dent, received prizes for know,
ing the Ten Commandments and
always gave thanks at the-table.
But Isaac. was a hypocrite of the
rankest sort. He had taker
grvni pains to learn tne passaire
of scripture about not letting tp
