The Disgruntled Forty
The disgruntled 40 now assembled in Detroit mak
ing plans in an effort to defeat Roosevelt are mostly a
tttini h of fellows who have lost their standing with
theu own constituentcy, gotten mad and are now out
with the old snake disposition to destroy
At the head of the list is Jim Reed who fought
Woodrow Wilson while the great war president was
on his death bed A man who will do that is uot en
titled to the confidence of good people Others on
the list almost without exception are made up of the
same type of men. men who have failed to make good
arwt who are not trusted by their own folks Now
they seek to tear down by trying to advance what
they claim is superior wisdom. Even A! Smith, the
great traitor, was descent than any of the group, for
he did have the decency to remain away from the

Learn To Keep Your Wants Simple
Probably the best advice yet offered as a solution
to the wide-spread spirit of unrest throughout our
country is advanced in the following paragraph
"Learn to keep your wants simple. Refuse to be
owned and anchored by things and the opinions of
others." ..
, ve
We have dressed after the patterns of Paris, for
getting all about comfort and at a tremendous cost.
We have duplicated the neighbors' purchases just to
keep in style with the Smiths and Joneses when there
was no real need for such action. And after we get
it all, we are not satisfied.
Our standard of living rests too much on what
others think and do, and nut on what is right and
just A wrong act is not justified because another
commits that wrong, but we reconcile ourselves be
cause others do the same wrongs.

Hopeful? Why not?
Before long, it will be obvious that the New Jersey
police are impertinent for rvea arresting a young
couple over such a trifle.
Murder used to be a serious crime, matricide one
of the most horrible of crimes.
But we're supposed to be modern nowadays?even
if we are just a bit "impulsive."
England's Educational System
When you strike down a nation's educational sys
tem, you blast its hopes and destroy its possibilities
for future development. Of all the war stricken na
tions of the world, England is suffering most. They
impose heavier taxes than other nations. Their ed
ucational system has fallen more than that of any of
the enlightened nations. The grades have been low
ered in the public system until only the grammar
school is free to all. This was considered necessary
that the country might care for its war debt. Yet,
the action reaches the very vitals of the civilization
of the British Empire, placing that country in the
class of defensive nations rather than a leading na
tion.
Reflection
By Makcaket S. Owens
(Superintendent Chid Welfare in Martin County)
It happened a few days ago?the rain was pouring
down. The roads in the county presented a rough
picture of red, slippery hills and ditched, muddy low
lands. The tobacco and corn bowed their heads un
der the strength of the downpour?the doors of the
houses were closed, not a soul could be seen. There
wasn't much beauty to behold as I rode along the
lonely countryside?it was one of those rainy days
when one likes to sit by an open fire and read. But
there was beauty sitting right beside me?a child. A
tanned child nine years of age, with unattractive
features but with a soul. She was trying very hard
to catch something of beauty out of the past and
though young in years she had the mentality of an
older person. Her thoughts were of the "home that
used to be". Of a mother who deserted her and of a
father who gave the last ounce of devotion. As she
teflected and put those reflections into words she
said. 1 know my father cannot take care of me,
but 1 wish he would take me?1 love him". Then
folowed illustrations of the deeds of a loyal and de
voted father who, because of adverse circumstances,
can care for her no longer.
1 have thought many an hour of the influence of
that lather on his child and of the moulding of a very
beautiful character through that influence. 1 am con
vinced that whatever happens to her young life that
she will always cling to and hold dear those ideas
instilled into her young heart by her father. Well
may every parent learn a lesson from this humble,
tragic story; yet, one which shines like a heamn be
cause that child reflects real goodness in her every
expression
Arming for War
Roxboro Courier
The nations of the world are arming feverishly, os
tensibly for defense, but this means war sometime-in
the near future. A similar activity preceded the out
break of the World War in 1914.
We may not know, but looks to us that the re-arm
ament of the world has been forced by the activities
of three countries, namely, Germany, Italy, and Ja
pan. The first two are controlled by dictators with
a thirst for national glory and adventure. The last
named nation is ruled by a military clique and is en
gaged in gobbling up as much of China as it can and
as fast as it can.
We do not believe that either Britain, Russia,
France or the United States wants a war, yet they
would be foolish not to arm and prepare to defend
themselves against possible attack. Disarmament is
fine and desirable, but a nation would be foolish to
practice li alone.?M. S.

COTTON SALES

Farmers Urged To Return
Certain Cotton Forms
Immetfiatety ~
August 15 has been set as the
deadline (or filing applications for
cotton price adjustment payments,
Mr. T B Slade, assistant in the
county agent's office, said today.
These payments represent the dif
ference in price received by the
farmer and the price on 10 spot
markets on the day he sold. How
ever, if the farmer received as much
as 12 cents or more, he is not eli
gible to participate in the price ad
justment payments It is believed
that all farmers in this county eli
gible to participate in the payments
liave Tiled their sales certificates and
applied for the price differential.
Producers who had cotton under
the 10-cent loan are not eligible to
receive price adjustment payments
on such cotton and it is not neces
sary for them to file cotton sales
certificates, Mr. Slade said, explain
ing that the price on July 31 was
above 12 cents a pound.
Mr. Slade pointed out that many
farmers in this county who had re
ceived cotton price adjustment pay
ments have not returned certain
papers, known as Form N. C. A. P. 3.
To participate in any future! pay
ments of any kind, the fanner must
return this form properly executed.
In other words, a fariper who has
not executed and returned the form
mentioned cannot participate in any
soil program payments.
to serve the people in an unbiased,
sympathetic and judicial manner.
Those in charge of the work here
cannot even hope to make this pro
gram a success without the coop
eration of the people in the coun
ty. It is the people's program, as
well as the State Department's and
the County Department's program.
The public is cordially invited to
visit the local office at any time in
regard to any problem which come
