This, readers of this news paper will remember, is the day set for the public hearing at the Chamber of Commerce rooms in the Community Build ing on the proposal to deepen and widen Elizabeth City's harbor. Here is a proposal of interest enough, ordinarily, it would seem, to draw to the meeting every shipper, jobber, or busi ness man in the city, and every citizen at all interested in the development oi nis town. In the light of the proposal, now pending, to establish a State inland waterway port somewhere on the Carolina coast, the hearing takes an ex traordinary interest. The Advance hopes that the meeting will be well attended. This newspaper, indeed, urges the attendance on the meeting of every single mem ber of the Chamber of Com merce who can possibly attend it, and the attendance as well of non members of the Cham ber who may be particularly interested in the development of the city's shipping facilities. ; How Long, Gentlemen? Twelve months ago today Th Advance respectfully call ed the City Council's attention to the fact that the ordinance committee never seemed to have done any work or to have made any formal report. The need of redrafting the city's ordinances with a view to elim inating dead letter laws, recon ciling conflicting ordinances, and clearing up the confusion resulting, frjam an endless string of amendments of which no record had been kept, other than in the clerk's minute book was even then evident enough in all conscience. The situation today seems to be precisely the same as it was a year ago, only more sol Is it the Council's idea to pass this tangle on to the next administration? . With the election on hand, The Advance could not find a way or make one to crowd in every little item of local news that should have appeared. Truth to tell, a four page paper never is big enough for us any more. "The best news since the Armistice," said an Advance subscriber Tuesday when he read the news of the Demo cratic landslide throughout the country. The Advance is hop ing it will prove so indeed. , This talk of growing Repub lican strength in this district seems to be a case of great cry and little wool, few votes but lots of bull.

By reason of the report that six cases of scarlet ft;ver had developed In Hertford since last Friday, a special meeting of the County Board of Health and the local school board wag called at nine o'clock Sunday night In Dr. G. E. Newby'g office. While the Board of Health did not consider that any serious epidemic was threatening at present, they took every precaution to avert one, An order was passed to close the Hertford schools, both white and colored, for one week and drastic restrictions made relative to children under eighteen years of age going on the streets or attending the moving pictures. They have also called off the Sunday school services for next Sunday and prevented chil dren from vattending the several church services. It Is expected that the matter will be in hand by next Sunday so that the schools may re sume operations next week. The cases so far reported appear to be of a very mild form. Since the first of September thirteen cases have been reported to the county physician, seven of which were scattered over the county; T. M. Grant and T. J. Nixon, Jr., returned home last Saturday from a short hunting trip to Currituck County. URGES TAVINQ BODY ROAD The necessity of! the early paving of Body Road to the city limits was urged by Superintendent Sheep of the city public schools at the meeting of the Council Monday night, in view of the proposed erection of a public school building for negroes on this street. Superintendent Sheep urged that, If the city's finance would not permit the paving of the street at this time, at least a wide sidewalk should be laid on it. Otherwise, he said, the building would be of little use in wet weather.

Riley did not at tempt to dispute the fact that he married to excess but he did show that he was otherwise a law-abiding and hard working negro. It was de cided by Judge Kerr, however, that Riley's predelection for dusky fe males other than his own, should be curbed before Riley had injured too many trusting hearts and he was given twelve months on the road, in which to ponder on the lnadvisability of attempting to attach "too many rags to one bush." In the case of Sarah King, Willie Raymond and Mary Eason, or Mason or Brosla or whatever her name is, all colored, charged with receiving stolen goods from Joe Smith, Sarah King was let off with the costs of the i.i - f L .11. case, providing sne leaves uuzaueui City immediately. Willie Raymond and the other woman each received eighteen months in the State's prison at hard labor.

SWEEP 'EM IN EVENING "Sweep your sidewalks after busi ness clttses in the evening Instead of in the morning," is City Manager Ferebee's request of all down town business houses. When Mr. Fere bee appeared before the City Coun cil Monday night and explained that the street sweeper force must oper ate early in the morning and that sidewalks swept after business hours resulted ln refuse in the streets all day, the Council armed Mr. Fere bee's request with the authority of an ordinance.
