Mr. Howell to Borat Mall Carriers.
in, this day when so few men

care for omce or position more
than for the money derived there
from, it is refreshing to find a man
who takes a deeper interest in the
work he is doing; one who digni
fies whatever position he may hold
by the manner in which he per
forms his work. It is for that
reason that the following letter is
reprinted from the Progressive
Farmer and Mr. Howell's patrons
will bear us out in anything we
might say to his credit:
I wish to call your attention to
the importance of organization, as
the majority of tire local associa
tions will have their last meeting
on tne oVin 01 iay Deiore me
State meeting,, and I would like to
see every earner in me taie in
the Association by that time.
I trust the members will do all
they can to get those who seem to
be indifferent interested. The fra
ternal feature of the order seems
to me should cause every carrier
to be in the organization if he had
no other motive, but in addition
to this is the great mission for
which rural free delivery ws
adopted, namely: the education of
the great mass of the rural popu
lation of our country
As tbe service could be had only
through united action of the rep-
representatives of the people, it s
self-evident that the carrier on
whom the success of the service
much depends can not accomplish
the Work for which it was created
without united effort.
It is as much the duty of the
rural carrier to do-everything he
can for the unbuilding of the Com-
monwealth in his peculiar sphere as
it ; fnr thA President of the United
States in his sphere. We can no
more make the service the greatest

FOR BETTER' ROADS
Good Road . Material Everywhere
Why Do Yob , Pot Take tbe Leal
fa Roii-maklBg-r
(Progressive Farmer.)
Wherever practicable, in the
improvement of roads attention
should be paid to improving the
line of the roadbed.' In a hilly
country a road in a directly
straight line is never best, and
some attention is paid to the prop
er enirineering of the roads there
would be far better roads. Then
there is not a section in Nortl
Carolina where good road-making
material cannot be had. In the
Coastal Plain the oyster shells are
in many places cheap and conve
nient, and nothing makes, a better
road than shells. Then in other
parts of the East the shell rock is
handy and makes the finest of
road material. In the Piedmont
country the granite rocks are
abundant and convenient. I once
drove from Raleicrh to Durham,
tumbling down into the Crabtree
Valley over one of the gullied ex
cuses for a road, and then into-a
trench of red mud where the road
repairers had been at work throw
ing mud and sods into the middle
. . 'S
of the road till tne mud was so
deep that our team' pulled the
doubletree in two, and we would
have been in a bad plight but that
wo found some bale wire in the
carriage with which we lashed a
pole on from the woods. And
right alongside of this trench call
ed a road, the hclds were fairly
macadamized over with little
broken rocks, and in some places
the rocks had been gathered from
the fields and placed on ridges
alongside the road. - And yet the
road workers had repaired the
road with mud . when they could
have covered - it with these
with the same shovels.
There is no part of the
munity more interested in
roads than the farmers who
rocks
corn-
good
have
to haul over them. I am glad to
sec the spirit of improvement in
this respect in the South, and
note that some cities are making
beautiful roads out from the town
throutrh the township. W ith a
little co-operation among the far
mers, these roads could be extend
ed all through the State, and the
Legislature should aid in the con
struction of the main lines of trav
el. If a man has a farm for sale
and it attracts the attention of a
would-be purchaser,' it would sell
1 S 1 1 - A. A.
more readily ana ior a oeuer
nrice if on'a well built road, for-
no one would want to buy- a farm
where he would be tied up all
winter. Big loads of cotton "can
be hauled over the roads around
the cities, but the man living, off
these roads can haul only what he
can start with over his own coun
try roads- Jso that the improved
roads arc of little use to him, and
in many ctoses he has to pull up a
steep hill only to go down the
other, side, when a level road
would take him around easier and
quicker. rhink of this too, in
improving your roads.
Brighten Up Year Own Little Plot
of Ground.
The importrnt results that would
flow out of a movement? for the
beautifying of lawns, .landscapes,
and parks throughout the land can
scarcely be measured. In timo it
could not but stimulate the kin
dred movement for good roads,
for more artistic architecture, for
the brightening and humanizing of
rural life, and in an indirect way
would stimulate art in all its
branches. It would have an im
portant effect on the health of the
people in that it would take them
more in the open air and bring
them c ose to the soil. Jure air
sunlight, and Mother 'Earth, after
all, are the sovereign medicines.
I)o not leave this important
work to rich men on their great
. . a a m 1
estates. 1 our little plotot ground
has
as many possibilities as has
the most extensive private park.
Grass, flowers, shrubs, are as ac
cessible to you' as to any. The
rest depends ou yourself, on your
creative ability and artistic taste.

you means the beautifiing of your

LETTER.
rUIeig-b . Schools Hazin? His lieal
'Governor. '
Editor of The Anaonian :
For sometime I have not afflict
ed your, readers . with, anything
from my pen. Those engaged in
educational work have but little
time for anything else but the tax-
ing and imperative duties titat
come as regularly aud relentlessly
as the college bell rings.
oince writing you before we
have' had our celebration of the
passing of four hundred, mark, in
our enrollment of the students of
the Baptist University, A- bright
day has pawned for our girls who
want an education wnen so mucn
interest is manifested in them as is
seen in the enrollment of over
four hundred in the nine years of
its earnest work for the young
women of our country. It does
my heart good to see our young
women looking through the micro
scopes into the secrets of nature
and storing their minds with the
wealth of knowledge that enables
them to live the best life possible,
if they will just take heed to the
lessons learned.
You have heard about the haz-
. .a 1 rw-ai
ing spirit in the colleges, the
papers love to tell about such oc-
currences. r'or my part 1 have
never seen any good to come from
the hazing practice. Now and
then some snivelling coxcomb or
an aggressively egotistic rascal is
taken down and taught a lesson or
two that he ought to have learned
m . 1 it.
soon alter he was weaned, but
someone suffers either by expul
- t a .
sion, suspension, demerits or
alienation of friends which kills
the spirit of loyalty to the college
That is not all of it. So often
have known these hazcrs or those
who entrace in the Questionable
college pranks to be led by fellows
who themselves incorrigible and
care but little, if anything, for a
successful college career to induce
in one way or another young fel
lows who love real fun and the
good natured rollicking spirit in
college life to join hazing crowds
and devilment hunters. Ihen
when the mischief is done these
nobler spirited fellows have to suf
fer with the uupnncipled rasca
whose influence led them astray.
He does not care. It was only a
question of time when he was go
ing to drop out of. college Jife apy
way. But for the other -fellows,
!itw different! If "they nontihue
at college, so often in the disci
pline that follows these outbreaks
they become offended with the
authorities at seeming wrongs
done them. This takes the pleas
urc and success out of their course;
and if they are suspended, they
become so often everlastingly es-
ranged from the college, and their
parents and friends are likewise
orever against that institution
All because some dare-devil fel-
ows devoid of the finer qualities
thought they had a right to pun
ish some fellows whose conduct
did ndt please them. There is the
rub -this after effect. I have
known a score of bright worthy
. 1 a 1 a .
young men thus ruined, and the
iearts of their parents wrung. to
bleeding with wounds that would
not heal. Then tell me that, haz-
nr does erood! If only the really
izuiltv suffered there might be
some excuse, inat is scarcely
mi 1
ever the case. And if the college
faculty were angels these results
would follow. It may be that I
will talk more on school life by
and by, if you will allow me.
Raleigh is quite an educational
center. Over seven thousand stu
dents are here in the different
schools. -Then if you take into
consideration the number of teach
ers and others necessary to run the
schools there is quite an army of
them.
Ex Governor C. B. Aj'cock de
livered an address on education
here recently that was a master
piece in argument and force. How
I wish every man woman, and
child ' in North 'Carolina could
hear.it. The people of Raleigh
are going to vote tomorrow on
whether they will increase the
tax to support the schools here.
There is considerable opposition
to it mirable dictu." Before
you read this the issue wil be de
cided. Goldsboro the home . of
Aycock votes 33 i cents of tax on
the "hundred dollars to support the
schools. - Raleigh has been , pay
ingonly 20cts oh the hundred
dollars foriits schools; Goldsboro
voted ? out saloons -and dispensary
lohg'agov and prospers' grandly
now." Raleigh has just voted out
the dispensary with its-thousands
tbAtrwent to the school, fund, and
some of the people are quafcmg'
inr their knees-at -the thought of
increased taxes f o support the
schools. f iGoldsboro 4 knows : how
good it is fobe free from saloons.
JSome ol RalefghV tax: payers still

from whiskey. I ' trust they Svill
