There's a harmony between the natural loveliness of this modern age and the natural, mild goodness of Camels. And if you find them keep ing company, don't be surprised. Camel has given the world the luxury of a naturally mild cigarette a cigarette that preserves all the refreshing fragrance of the choice, mild tobaccos from which it is made a cigarette that is delightfully smooth, but never flat, never parched, never tasteless. Modern smokers are awake to the fact that mere flatness doesn't mean mildness. That's one reason there's such a swing to Camels. Watch it right in your own crowd. Join them in Camels a smoke that's enjoyable all the way all the time. e AM EL Franklin, N. C. Sept. 18, 1930. Editor of The Tress. Dear Sir; Please allow me space in your paper to express my views on some of the questions that are of vital interest to us as citizens of Macon county, and that arc being daily Vask- ed. i I agree with Prof. Harbison in re gard to allowing the people the great est of freedom in choosing their ser vants and then when chosen it be comes the duty of that official to serve the best interest of all the people. "'I We hear more said of our roads and schools than any other, of our public institutions bcause we are in daily contact with those. " I believe that if it can be worked out these should be supervised and maintained by, the State as a whole. Then we would havq more uniformity in the character and quality of oar roads and schools. It seems to me that there is a good deal of dpulicatidn and excess overhead when the roads of our com mon wealth are maintained by the State, and by the County as at pres ent. We are proud of the good our schools are doing and justly so, but when the school authorities of the poorer counties are required to make some certain application to secure an allowance from the equalization fund for the maintenance of her schools to meet state requirements it seems to me that their pride' would be some what humiliated. So let's work to the end that all of our children have an equal educational opportunity whether they be rural or whether they be urban. I believe that our system of raising revenues should be readjusted so that the burden of' our public institutions would be distributed according to ability to pay or according to earn ing capacity. We are making it less desirable to own homes because of the fact that the greater weight of the support of our public institutions, which all share alike,, has been derived from principle of Business improvements with borrowed capital to ' the extent that the spirit of the average tax payer is crushed or the property of the less fortunate is sold for taxes in any considerable numbers. I believe that our leaders and es pecially our officials should exempli fy in their lives that they believe in law obedience, and hence the result less need for law enforcement Very sincerely, JOHN C. FERGUSON.: , o Tuesday of this week was New Year's Day with the Jewish race. The year is 5691, and two days is usually observed by prayer by all the Jewish congregation. o NOTICE OF SALE By virtue of the power of sale vest ed in the' undersigned by a deed of trust executed by T.
