Friday, February 21, 1936 Reason and Truth in Politics While the race for governor in this State is begin ning to warm up, we hope the public will realize that the occasion is not important enough for any man to live for his candidate nor against the other man's friend. l*olitics has fallen to such a low ebb that many people seem to think that false attacks are the best way to beat the other fellow. It would seem that our State is rather fortunate in having men of character aspiring to the governor ship. Yet, you do not have to travel far before you hear some hideous remark about this or that candi date. most of which is false. One of the strange things in life is the inability to face our political and religious problems with any great degree of reason. Of course, the devil does not want any reason-or truth in religion, nor does the grafting politician want any reason or truth follow ed in politics. It is dishonest to damage a man's reputation be cause we are against him and that alone. A Dope Ring There seems to be a "ring of dope salesmen mak ing regular visits to Williamston. It is, of course, hard to get direct proof on them because both a dope salesman and user will not tell anything and will generally lie when pushed. Yet, when certain peo ple are seen in town, the dope users begin to get sick and appeal to others for loans, claiming they are in need of medicine. Then all you have to do is keep your eye on them, and you will soon see them walk in? thr street until they meet the salesman. After passing, they will dodge around a corner or in an alley to be followed immediately by thr salesman The transaction is completed at once if there is no one to observe them. It is a sad thing to see men who are capable fine fellows go to the dogs. We need a better enforcement of thr drug laws, but like it is with liquor, the deal ers make so much profit they forget the question of human welfare, making enforcement difficult "You Have Helped Me' Probably few Presidents of these United States have had heaped upon their heads more undue and unfair critisism than has Mr. Roosevelt. Most of the criticism has been hatched in the great halls of wealth and handed to the misinformed with a sugar coating to find its way indirectly to the leader and his co workers. That the attacks made by those who once were saved by the President are disheartening is cer tain, but Mr. Koosevelt shows again his greatness by continuing at his task with his zeal, his earnestness no less great. He is finding relief and support in the fact that he is trying to do the things than the mil lions of |ieople in this country need done most. In an answer to a WPA worker just a few days ago the President said in the last paragraph of his letter to "an understanding friend": "It is most of al because you give me the blessing of the unknown men whose voices seem never to be heard?because you rightly believe that I do try, as best 1 may, to understand the humand and spiritual problems of thr millions in our great land who are loyal to our common ideals and who want to hold their heads high. 1 am grateful to you. You have helped me." Slightly Coufused Rev. Xorvin C. Duncan in Morqantim Xcivs-Herald. ... I will pass along ... a story which I have had in my scrapbook for years. I cut it out years ago and was saving it for a special occasion, but as a speaker over the radio used it the other night, 1 need not hold it any longer. The chairman of the committee was addressing a meeting at a teachers' institute: "My friend, the school work is the bul-house of civ ilization; I mean -ah?" He began to feel frightened. "The bul-house is the school work of civ?" The smile could be felt. "The work house is the bul-school of?" The school-bul is the house work?" An audible Tsnicker spread over the audience. "The bul-school?" He was getting wild. So were his hearers. He mopped the perspiration, gritted his teeth, and made a fresh start. "The schoolhou.se, my friends?" A sigh of relief went up. Hamlet was himself again! He gazed serenely arbufid. The light of tri umphant self-confidence settled on his brow. "Is the woolbark . . And that is where he lost consciousness."* Perhaps he was trying to say: "My friends, the schoolhouse is the bulwark of civilization." Standard's Bright Leaf Tobacco Fertilizer If you knew of one certain tobacco fertilizer you could use that would grow a quality of tobacco which would sell for enough more money as com pared with tobacco grown with any other fertilizer to more than pay your entire fertilizer bill, you would use it, wouldn't you. Our Bright Leaf Tobacco Fertilizer has consistently grown tobacco that sold for more money per acre than tobacco grown with other fertilizers right in the same field beside it. ^Bright Leaf contains no Sulphate of Am monia. Part of the Potash is Carbonate of Potash that puts a texture in to bacco that no other form of potash does. It will pay you and pay you well to use the best this year. Williamston, N. C., R F. D.
