Tuesday, June 4, 1929 A Fine Piece oi Advertising Governor Gardner succeeded in «ivinj North Caro lina a tine piece of advertising on May 18, through the columns of the Chicago l)aily News and through its broadcasting station The governor did not fail ty tell them about our mountains, hills, and plains, the splendid resources given by nuture, our climate, our waters, fields and forests, our schools and colleges, growing cities* 1 and line agricultural advantages. Governor Gardner earned at least one year s salary in this one talk. When we think that Chicago is nearer Asheville than Cape Hatteras is, we can realize the importance of advertising in that great city and rich commercial center 1 '• . Nothing pays a bigger dividend than advertising and any country thatAhas as much to advertise as North Carolina has should lose no time in "telling the world." Overplaying the Sensational ' - ' * * .' # Why are we giving so much attention to movie stars, bail players, prize fighters, high-flyers, and peo ple of those classes? Have we reached the point that we regard only the sensational ? We seem to be giving too little attention to the great common level of men, where the soul and body of our civilization rests. Those people who should be our ideal are seldom mentioned. We are growing a generation having little interest in a career a 1 a good quiet safe citizen, who works for his living, pays his way, and blesses his neighbors in honest unselfish service. We are nut setting up that kind of a career as a model for our children We are staging their minds for presidencies and captaincies of industry in the political and financial held or great lawyers or doctors in the professional field; in the fights we must be Tunneys; in the flights, Lindberghs. But we are failing to tell them that the best man to be is the good honest citizen of the community, the only man upon whiqh the church, state, and society can safely rest. I The Mediterranean Fruit Fly What may prove to be the greatest plague t haf has ever come to America is the Mediterranean Fruit Fly, which seems to be a native of North Africa, but NOTICE i • Cnder and by virtue of a judgment r of the superior court of Martin Coun ty in an action entitled "Eli Wilton vs. JanuHi WilMUi, I will, on the 17th day of June, 1929, at 12 o'clock noon, in "ftoAt of the courthouse door of Martin County, in Williamstun, N. C.', offer for sale to the highest bidder, for cash, the following described land, to wit: 500 TONS . - NOVA SCOTIA j LAND PLASTER ] Cheap for the Cash -1 mi i i . i 'i e=M=g=g ' ~v / • • i ' ' C. D. Carstarphen and Co. WILLIAMSTON, N. C. * which has now spread to every continent on the globe. The habit «f the fly is to deposit its eggs in almost all kinds of fruits and some vegetables, causing them to decay. The eggs then hatch and grow into a small grub or worn, which eats the rotten fruit. Then the grub lies dormant for a few days and develops into a full-grown fly, multiplying many generations each £ ear ' _ * « The fly was first discovered in this country about two months ago near Orlando, Fla. A hard fight was then made to destroy it, and the government spent millions in destroying all fruits in the infested dis trict, but that method failed and the fly is now being found in various sections of the South to which fruit has been shipped. It now appears that the battle is lost, and the orange groves, peach orchards, and other fruit and vegetable producing areas may soon become valueless unless some method of extermination can be found to destroy the pest. The ten plagues of Egypt, with a few others added, have aliout girdled the globe, yet in some way, man and beast have l>een able to exist and make some progress Doubtless man will find some way to de stroy the fly; and if not, then a good substitute for the fruit it destroys. Honoring the Veterans - The Confederate lines are now almost extinct. The reunion b?ing held at Charlotte is comjxised of only a few of the aged and feeble soldiers who fought so vali antly and surrendered sixty-four years ago. While the country feels a just pride in their bravery and in the valiant battles they waged, their noblest deeds have been in the building up »f a waste country, es tablishing homes and establishing a government where they, their children, and generations to come may en joy the blessings handed down to them as a heritage. While their cause was lost, they never lost their honor but profited their sad experience and built a stronger government than they possessed before. Martin County is not represented at this reunion, for the first time since it was organized. We only have four of the brave fellows left in the ceunty. 'l'hey are Messrs. D. F." Roberson, John A. Nelson, and B. R. Jenkins, of Robersonville; and Zephaniab Howell, of Williamston. All of tbem are now well past the four score mark They lost their,cause and are weakened by age, but strong in their faith :n God and humanivy-and are honorable, dependable citizens. ' f ,1 • 4 A Farm Program Theodore Roosevelt suggested the following pro gram for helping farmers, which is worthy of our con sideration today: "Our object* must be (1) to make tl*e tenant farmer a land owner; (2) to eliminate as far as possible the conditions which produce the shifting, seasonal, tramp type of labor, and to give the farm laborer a perma nent status, a career as a farmer, for which his school education shall fit him, and which shall open to him the chance, of, in the end, earning the ownership in fee of his own farm; (3) to secure cooperation among the small land owners, so that their energies shall pro duce the best possible results; (4) by progressive tax ation or in other fashion to break up and prevent the formation of great landed estates, es|)ecially in so far as they consist of unused agricultural land; (5) to make capital available for the farmers and thereby put them more on an equality with other men engaged in business; (6) to care for the woman on the farm as much as for the man, and to eliminate the condi tions which now so often tend to make her life one of gray and sterile drudgery; (7) to do this primarily through the farmer himself, but also, when necessary, by the use of the entire collective power of the people of the country, for the welfare of the farmer is the concern of all of us."
