Postmastfcr, Nicholson informs us
that the business of tfie Post Office
Is tocreaairig steadily. The receipts
for August 1924 were 20 percent
more than for August 1923. Where

STEADY PAYROLLS MEAN
PROSPERITY
/?V?:;The most striking manner \ to illu
'rate the interest the public should
-__ive in industrial development and
economic stability is to consider for
a moment what happens when in
js -dus tries are idle. W^-neVer have
broad lines and " hard times ' when |
the wheels are turning1. We should
all demand and. work for sound pol
icies which mean steady payrolls
good wages.

AN INDUSTRIAL NATION

lA- Otrr ' Country is basically
industrially - minded.
The American people are inherently
^?elf-reliant and do not easily fall in
to the quagmires of communism, so
cialism and the many seductive
- forms of paternalism. The one-man
acksmith shop, the man and wo
I man working a farm or store spell
Americanism as against government

BOOTLfeG BONDS
A tax-free bond is a bootleg bond
in that the profit to its owner,
?g through escaping1 all taxes, falls 'to
T*ay -its just share . toward "govern
ment, just as the profits from boot
leg'whisky fail to pay 'their share of
Igoverrtm ent expense^..
18$ V The tax-free bond is legal, how
?' 'evar, while bootleg liquor is. not,
fbut in .both instances the govem
?' /memt loses revenue from the prpfits
ill* the transaction.
* y Simple; justice demands that our
!?? ria^s.be changed so that the profits
from future 'issues of public bonds
, 'may be taxed. They would always
g v-confmand a lower interest rate than
{? "(private bonds on account of their
!^' iJjflhiSHf security. , .
i: - Why permit the profits from this
| 'class of securities to remain on a
'?bootleg basis ? that is, with no re
, * 'turn . to the government, which nec

SOCIAL. SCIENCE RESEARCH
IC".: I
few One of the most important steps |
retaken by the University of North j
Carolina is the recent organization
by president Chase of an Institute
'fOr Research in Social Science. The I
p.: purpose of this institute is to make j
comprehensive and careful studies)
S^Wo "North, Carolina and Southern
jWlal and industrial Problems from
the' Vl>.e base and to publish these
resulvd from time to time as they
& may be most serviceable.
The institute makes available |
Irom eight to ten research assistant
ihips io the University, paying a
stiponf at $1,B00 a year with- pro
$ Tisioni far field work, tabulation
fc, and analysis of findings, and publi
cation of result*. Each bolder of
such position muat ' have had at
eaafc his Master's degree or its equiv
alent in graduate research ^xperien
e and training. The board of gov
ernors of tne Institute consists of
the following: President H. W.
Jhase, chairman, E. C. Branson, D.
i>. Carroll, J. G. deR. Hamilton, A.
<1/ Jordan, L. R. Wilson, and Howa
rd W. Odum, secretary. The instl
ate has been made possible by the
rant of approximately f 100, 000
rom the Laura Spelman Rockefel
3T Memorial, distributed into three
nnual payments of $35,500 each,
he Institute is already under way,
?v,ng held three meetings and hav
,ig begun several projects of impor
mt studies, among which are those I
? i county government and county j
affairs.
TOLL of carelessness
Figures recently compiled by the
ate of Oregon show that 93 per
ent of its automobile wrecks are j
aused from carelessness. Of 9,131 j
(cidents reported from Jan. 1 to |
,fune 30, last, 5, 457 are charged
>ntirely to carelessness. Added to
:hese may, be included the following:
\peeding, 183; failure to give right
of way, 1381 ;? reckless driving, 260;
cutting corners, 372; doubly at in
tersections, 155; driving \yfcile in
toxicated, 123; failure to give sig
nal, 290; -.driving on left side of
street or highway, 64; improper
parking, 79; reverse direction in
middle of block, 40; passing tt> left
of street cars while discharging pas
sengers, 31; inexperience, 24; jock
eying on bridges, 21; a total of
8480 accidents which might have |
been avoided, according to the re
port of x the secretary of state, had
the drivers been careful. It is pro
bable th?t these Oregon figures
^roul<lsbe a fair average for other
states. .
That too many ^automobile dri
vers "let the insurance company pay
t^ie- bill" .is responsible for many
avdidable accidents. Let drivers
remember that no insurance policy
has yet been devised which Will re
turn the life of a person killed
through an automobile driver's care
lessness. Safety to life and proper
ty rests almost wholly in the hands
of the automobile driver.

BICKETTS DREAM
I have endeavored to visualize my
dream of a fairer and finer State. I
have outlined the means by which I
hope to make this dream come true.
And the means all reach out to a
single end ? a larger hope, , a wider
door for the average' man than he
has ever known.
With a six months school guaran
teed to every child; with the forces
of disease routed from their ancient
stronghold; with the curse of rum
lifted from every home; with our
fields tilled by the men who own and
therefore love them; with our har
vests free from the crop lien's dead
ly blight; with modern conveniences
and wholesome diversions within
reach of every country home, our
dear old State, released from her
bondage to the blood-kin tyrants of
Ignorance, Poverty, Disease, and
Grime, will begin to realize her fin
est possibilities in riches and grace;
will assume her rightful place in the
inarch of civilization; and from the
blue of the mountains to the
blue of the sea there will spring v>"
a hardier, holier race, not unlike
the giants that walked the earth
when the sons of God mated with
the daughters of men. ? Thos. W.
3ickett, Ex-Governor of North Car
olina.
LOOKING AHEAD
North Carolina progress is no
'onger a matter warranting vain
boasting. The time has passed when
-eally marvelous advancement is a
;hing so new as to be a . perpetual
wonder. There is enough develop
ment behind us industrially, educa
ionally, socially, to justify us in
.aking state achievement for grant
ed in a large measure. And still
.here are thousands of people who
>ave not waked up to the realization
of what is going on around them.
They are losing the stimulus that
:omcs from knowing the story of
heir State's awakening; they are
missing the opportunities inherent
in sane forecasting of the future by ,
the things accomplished in^the past.
Let Tarheel^ never become confirm
ed braggarts, but let them open |
their eyes to the prodigious events
all around them. Only the super- 1
ficial will become self-satisfied -from i
what they see, for it requires littl?
analysis o ?V no vr? that there are
yet man: **-? 1 which we as a
people are ? . ng. ? AshevilleCiti

A BOY AND HIS STOMACH
What's the matter with you ? Ain't
I always been your friend?
Ain't I been a pardner to you? Al1
my pennies don't I spend
In gettin' nice things for you? Don't
I give you lots of cake.
Say, Btununick, what's the matter
that you had to go an' ache?
Why, I loaded you with good thing
yesterday, I gave you more '
Potatoes, squash an' turkey than
you'd ever had before.
I gave you nuts an' candy, pumpkin
pie an' chocolate cake,
An' las' night when I got to bed you
had to go an' ache.
, j
Say, what's the matter with you
ain't satisAed at all?
I gave you all you wanted, you was
hard jes' like a ball,
An' you couldn't hold another bit of
| puddin', yet las ^ight,
You ached mos' awful, stun.mick;
that ain't treatin' me jes' right.
w> |
I've been a friend to you, I have^
why ain't you a friend o'mine?
They gave me castor oil '.last night
becausc you made me whine.
I'm awful sick t?-!- ? >ornin' an' I'm
feelin' mighty blue,
Cause you don't appreciate the
things I do for you.
!>,. '
THE STOMACH'S REPLY TO
THE BOY
Well, boy, I am a friend of yours
and I'll do the b^st I can,
If you do not abuse me, to make of
you a man,
You asked' me what's the matter
why I had to go an ache,
When for me yuo spent your pennies
for candy, pies and chocolate cake?
* : t ?'
_ i
Yes, you loaded me with good things
potatoes, squash and turkey; more
Than you 'had ever given me in the
same time before; ; A ;
Then you gave me nuts and candy,
pumpkin pie and chocolate cake
Until I had to work so hard it made
mv poor sides ache.
. I
Then you failed to chew your food
last night, and swallowed ft most
whole,
?That's why they gave you castor oil
your stomach, to console.
; "You're awful sick this morning?"
' well, I guess you ought to be
Becoz you do not chew the ^things
i you're stuffin* into me.
1 ^ I
You ask: What's the matter, stum- v
mick, ain't you satisfied at all?
When you try to put a gallon where
' two pints are none too small.
'Till I was hard just like a ball, and
I just had to ache.
You say you've been a friend to me
. and I've not befriended you?
- . '? >v! ?:
You've abused me and overworked
i me 'til I'm sore through and
through;
.You gave me all I wanted before
j you gave me pie and cake!
i Then you asked me what's the mat
ter that.i had to go and ache!
