r KINSTON'S SLOGAN
'"Every back yard a truck
farm" is Kinston's 1919 slogan,
end gardening is on a boom in
that progressive town, accord
ing to Kinston's correspondent
to the, daily papers.
The Advance understands
that Elizabeth City is getting
ready for a gardening cam
paign and hopes that Kinstor
won't have anything on this
good home town when roasting
cor time comes round.
Tile ADVANCE FOR IT
The Advance is heartily in
favor of the educational "sur
vey to bo taken by a Chamber
of Commerce' Committee. The
community needs to get the
facts, and then to co-operate
cirnestly to better conditions
each year. The responsibility
is upon this generation to see
that every child, of whatever
race ov color gets- a square
deal, or somethipg akin to it.
Co the race is improved and
the thoughts of men are widen
ed with the process of. the
WILL DO GOOD
The Advance received a
message yesterday to the ef
fect that the wife of Dr. Card
veil,, the well known colored
physician' here, has become
greatly interested ;n the work
of the Elizabeth City House
wives League thru reading this
newspaper and has asked to
organize a branch of the
league among the colored peo
ple of the city. - ,
She a,nd her helpers did 'ex
cellent work for the Red Cross
;,nd they, can render most ef
fective service for their com
raunity by co-operating in this
public spirited undertaking.
AN AMERICAN PRIVILEGE
Ilallet Ward announces him
self in the race. for Congress
and straightway, goes to Kal
eijrh and speaks against wo
man's suffrage, declaring it to
be "a political snare, a sociolo--:c
u c'ili'skvH and a bk-lojricul
lie." -As to that Ward is entit
led to .'a own opinion it

New," honestly, did you ever
" - ..r of anything much more
- less? The Adx(nce'has
l-.vays liked Ilallet Ward, but
ems to this newspaper that
i 1 this instance he has availed
J-im.-iclf of the great American
privilege of making a fool' of
himself.
With every member of the
u;-J of Aldermen elected by
vote of all the people of
whole city, it ought to be

SUPPORT THE "Y"

"The work that is being done
by the Y. M. C. A. ought to be
done by the churches," one
hears some of the saints say
now and then.
Well, if the churches are
not running the Y. M. C. A.
these .dayai just who" is, The
Advance would like to know?
rot i . ' i . . 1
ine institution .is managed i
by its board of directors arid j
the men on tbi3 board are put 1
there by the churchc3 of the ,
town. ' !
If any one church gets to
the place where it is willing to
add $4,000 a year to its budget
and a gymnasium, reading
room, game room, and so on,
with the . necessary equipment
to its plant, it will be time
enough to . talk about that
church doing for its members
what the Y. M. C. A. is doing
for the whole town, cut as
long as the churches of the
town do not or cannot make
such provisions for its young
people, let's support the Y. M
C. A.
The Advance has been
handicapped for the past week
by the absence of its master
printer, Mr. ,Godfrey( Homan,
who has been incapacitated by
a sprained ankle. Mr. Homan
turned up this morning and is
again on the job. So The Ad
vance'b again ready to handle
all the business it can get
and then some.
A public library is a long
felt, need in Elizabeth City.
Can't the Chamber of Com
merce start something in this
direction?
