The people who keep the cost of building high nrty have to sleep in a tent this winter on account of the scarcity of houses. Claimed bread making is a lost art, but the girl? of Tarboro are experts in the production of fudge. Women candidates so far nominat ed express confidence in being able to get elected, without having to pass out many boxes of big black cigars. While some of the boys are de spondent over failure in their stu dies, inability to get on the football team causes more widespread depres sion. It is noticed that the young women who are looking for masculine atten tions rarely object to smoking. Some people will celebrate Preven tion Day by having a bonfire within a few, feet of a combustible house when the wind is blowing. A survey of college entering class es raises the question of many young men are not neglecting the great opportunities in the bricklaying trades. plumbing and NEED SEVEREST PENALTIES The automobile accidents occurring - frequently of late in and around Tar boro is a matter of reckless driving and such cases should be investigat ed to the end that the guilty be as sessed the severest penalties the court may levy. The above statement is no haphaz ard theory or an expression of spite uttered against a few individuals, but it is written soberly with full reali zation of what it will mean to those convicted and with an earnest appeal to the judges who hereafter try such cases to abandon their firmer mode of assessing a small fine or repri mand. The most recent violations occur red yesterday morning when a Dodge driven by a negro, Walter Lyon, was wrecked on St. Patrick street, while trying to turn a corner. So great a speed was this car being driven by this negro, who, with his two companions, was either drunk or had been drinking that the ear could not make the turn and hit the curb with such force that front and back left wheels were shattered to pieces, the car finally resting on the side walk outside Mr. C. H. Fluck's resi dence. Had this car gone a little further it would have undoubtedly struck a little child playing la the garden of an adjoining house, and it is the greatest wonder that someone was not killed as the result of this wild driving. ; Shortly s before this accident an other car, also driven by a negro, was making the best part 'of forty miles an hour on this same street to the terror and. danger of the residents. The Southerner, therefore, calls upon these-officials of our city who are charged with the administration r t justice to announce that hereafter til persons found guilty of reckless driving will face the consequences of the heaviest fines the law allows them to assess. All the automobiles in Tarboro, and all the pleasure loving gadders of the county aro not worth, (he sac rifice of a single life which,-! ure ly be thf toll unless a severs shack is put upon the auto speeders on our newly paved streets. ' Let tha authorities strike ttrror into the hearts of the -violators now before a killing . occurs. EVERY MONDAY.. The Farmar, Hit Part; And The Prat. ' , ant Condition, Since the beginning the farmer has had a more or less' hard time; and the trouble begun when the serp ent worked Eve and she worked Adam. The two first farmers of which there is any record, were Abel and Cain; one; a stock farmer, t keeper of sheep, and the other i tiller of the soil. Since time im memorial, the life of the farmer has been one of isolation.. and loneliness, he had but rare opportunities to mix and circulate with his kind; and this very condition brought about a dis position and trait to be self-centered and distressful toward his neighbors. His familiar acquaintance might sub mit a proposition to him for his good he would suspect and not heed him, but if some smoothed tongued suave and persuasive fellow from the city approached him, he was easily be guiled and fooled. Thousands of years ago Cain in his answer to God emphasized what should be the rela tion of farmers toward one another, and what God expected it to be; he said I am not my brother's keeper; and then and there the trouble with the tillers of the soil began. Like Cain, they did not propose in any way to be their brother farmer's keeper. And the reaction of God's curse on Cain has followed the far mer down the long ages, to the pres ent day, arid if he does not change his viewpoint and line of action, he will be in the same condition when the world passes away. To succeed the farmer has to maintain a helpful and brotherly relation toward his fellow farmer, unfortunately this condition has never obtained; and judging from the past he would just 88 soon antagonize and do one of his own kind, and often seemed to pre fer to do him, rather than do one not his kind, With this spirit prevailing there can never be any true coopera tion, and without cooperation there can never be success. We have to realize that the present condition and disposition of farmers, is a product of thousands of years' training, and it will take time for the great body of the farmers to realize and fully take in that the time and condition of each living unto" himself has passed They must likewise realize that they must stop competing with one an other; the livest, most persistent and active competition known, is that kept up by the farmers. As a rule they are not willing to sacrifice hair's breadth to help the general ad vancement of their calling. This con tention is sustained by the fact that in every instance when the farmers took concerted action to reduce the acreage of any crop, that without ex ception, the acreage was increased ; and why was this so? Because every farmer, strange to relate, had a bet ter opinion of the other farmers than he had of himself; he thought that they were honest and would keep their promise and reduce, and a high er price would come. So he increased his acreage feeling thereby that he could get more benefit from the en hanced price; shame on him, he was fooled, practically all the offers were just like him; waiting to profit .by the commendable effort of his fellows. The meeting last Monday was most encouraging; but the call should have included all business men, as they are directly dependent on the farmer. We have got to have good roads, so good that the farmers will be induced to see more of the people and their affairs and broaden themselves. JOHN L.

While police forces are doing their best to hunt down the authors of the terrille crime apparently committed . T by anarchists at the Morgan offices in New York, it will "be well to ask what can be done to remove the. state of mind that prompt such outrages. If , this act corresponds to many others to which it seems similar, some one has set out to kill innocent peo ple in order to promote' revolution ary ideas. '.Such a man must be loo ney. .If he had any sense he would know that such a deed would create detestation and abhorrence for 1 his cause: a . - , ,- ' . The man who commits such s fear ful crime is not always the one most responsible for it. He has common ly a weak mentality, fhe people who put - false ideas into his head bear the heaviest blame. ' v , , ' The world is full of -propaganda' which calls for an ' overturn of the structure of society that has been built up after threo thousand years of patient effort. - Mjany evils exist which ought to be remedied, but no lasting reform is accomplished all at once. Changes have to be worked out gradually - through experiment, one thing at a time. - The promoters of revolution have no idea how they would go to. work to create a new ; social ; order, - and they would make a ridiculous failure of it if they had the chance, as they have done in Russia. ' , They spread around the ' most grossly exaggerated statements and fantastic lies. A lot of sincere and well meaning , people accept their statements as gospel truth. Their falsehoods fall into some unbalanced minds, which 'meditate in morbid wrath until they explode" in- some such terrible act as has just felled its victims in New York.' It is a time when false statements and exaggerations ought ' not to be permitted to go unchallenged. t.uM.. J. . a . .......... 8. , vvvv,v,'ffaa!atti Vaccination in Edgecombe.
