G«o. H. Harrison was elected Clerk
and only regular detail matters cam«,
up consideration.
it is generally realized that
boanl_ has} conaidei able work to do,
owing to extenuating circumstances,
to make both ends meet. We have a
hrst class water an dlight plant and
U»ey should have very little trouble
with that branch of tffie town's bus-j
inuss but unfortunately the) were
built at the highest prices oi' the
world's record, which makes a big
bond debt and the water and light reV
enue will nothing like pay the inter
est on the same. Uut with the most
jigid economy in operation the dilii
cutties will soon be overcome.
The retiring board has been criti
cised some but it has done as well
as any one would have under the same
circumstances. We can aft see oui

WOMEN ARE NOT

We hear a constant flood of criti

would of course, expect to near more
criticism fioni women than from the
I.neo, as they are persons of more re
fined tastes and are usually more talk
alive. Yet they patiently pass the
street corner dude who has absolutely
never formed the slightest uoiuain
anec with work in any of its varied
forms and knows more ai»out i»okei
chips than he does about anything
eise. They pass this type by with
never a comment. They seem to covttf
all of these faults with the broad man
tle ol' charity. They even tolerate the
young genus homo that vamps aroun ,
with one of these fancy pug-dog-can
nibal-isdand-hai rents tha\ we see sir
much of nowadays. They even at
times smile at tlie young thing'thus
attired whose head somewhat resem
bles a gourd wft7T~ir bunch of fringe
glued on top of it. Can anything equal
the patience, the endurance, tlu- char
ity, of the women who tolerate such
men ?

GAME CALLED OFF;
FANS DISAPPOINTED
\Vhen the local baseball fans waked
up yesterday morning and (ji-ard the
downpour a>f rain they were bitterly
disappointed for they expected to be
in Washington when the game was
called at I I'. M.
Washington has Ftank Armstrong
and El by Johnson, who were on the
WilliamSton team last year, New Horn
has Neal and kinston and Greenville
may have one or two who were with
us so it wall be very interesting to
the Williamston people
We are sorry that things are so
that we l cannot have organized base
ball here thisj year and we hope -the
teams of the Eastern Carolina league
the best success. The class of ball
that will be seen in these four neigh
boring towns this year will be verv
-good, I'lic, players are drawn from
the best that our state colleges have
U> offer. Tlu; colleges of North Car
olina hail an unusually high class of
baseball the past season. There were
four or five colleges in the state that
|>nt out teams that would have been
championship teams in ordinary years.
The' sportmanship in a league such
a the Kastern Carolina is umrsuallv
good. . The players are mostly voum
men that are playing ball to help do
fray their college expenses and the
games are free of some of the thinr
that are seen in professional name .
j The people of Williamston intend t.
follow the playing of the. hoys who
were with us last year and we will lie
glad when they make a "hit." Whofo

"WHAT SHALL WE DO?"
THE BIG QUESTION NOW
PUZZLING THE PEOPLE
Many answers are being given to
the queatjofl of "what shall wa do?"
from evry .street corner, cross roads
and wilding path in life. Some of th*
answers stem to be mixed with rea
son and thought, while some of the
others ar not. Some .say, stop *tiH.
Others ; say, turn to the right or to
the left. Still others say, turn around
.and go backward. The last statement
seems rather foolish, f oi' wh.»:. a man
turns around anil goes backward he
usually goes too last because the force
ol' gravity usually get* him. When »
man .goes up to a certain point and
then gives up lie is like a ball, that
has reached the height of its travel;
it tails slowly at first but soon gathers
momentum and finally comes down
with a crash. Like the ball a man
requires just as much force and power
to carry liinuup
For that reason il a man wants tw
Ho up to the higher points of life lie
needs to do better the things that he
is doing, put on more steam and hit
the ball harder. Perhaps what each
one of us is doing is tliw best thing
for him to do. After a man has trav
eled far in life along a certain route
it is hard for him to change to a new
line ol endeavor. The small twig can
easily be bent and shaped but the
grown tree cannot be so easily shaped.
The answer to the question "What
Shall We Do?" is to be found in the
following formula: stick to the lin«>
of work that you ar enow following.
I'ut into the execution of that work
a little more thought, a little-more en
thusiasm, a little more force. Set for
yourself a goal and work for that goal
as earnestly as you do anything i
the world.
