The Pkoclamation.
"'Whereas the modern high
way is essential to prosperity,
and to the advancement of the
social life of every community;
every people that aspires to join
the forward procession and that
hopes for the opportunity of our
time is beginning to reafize the
necessity of improved roads; all
sections and all progressive citi
zens are demanding them and
determined to have them: the
whole country has awakened to
their importance; everywhere
there is a generous rivalry to
have the best, and everywhere
enthusiasm forthem is apparent
and increasing; and
"Whereas the peopl of North
Carolina are losing, according to
reliable estimate, $12,000,000 an
nually on account of bad roads
this vast sum paid as a tribute to
m"d;-
Now, therefore, recgnizing the
universal sentiment for real im
provement, and realizing the
benefits which result therefrom
to all the people, I, Locke Craig,
governor of North Carolina, do
set apart Wednesday, the oth
day of November, and Thursday
the 6th of November, 1913, as
good road days, and do appoint
these days as holidays and days
of festival throughout the State
to celebrate the beginning of a
new era wherein improved high
ways shall be built in every
neighborhood, that all the peo
ple of farm and city may enjoy
the opportunities which they
bring.
" I call upon all patriotic peo
ple throughout the State to work
upon the public roads .and re
frain from all other occupations
on these appointed days; and I
call upon every able bodied man
to shoulder his shovel and march
and stike a blow for progress.
Let the farmer, the merchant, the
lawyer, the doctor, the minister
of the gospel, the rich and the
poor, and the men of all the
walks of life enlist as volunteers
in this mighty army for grand
accomplishment; .
"Let no man be above this
work, nor forget his duty to him
self and to his neighbors. It
will be an honor to every man on
these days to labor with his fel
low man to banish from the coun
try the curse of bad roads and
the evils that accompany them.
"Let all the people of every
station, high or low, be moved
by the same patriotic impulse to
work for the ; common wea'.
To all the benefit will come. Let
all participate. .'
"I do appoint and set appart
. these days, tin 5th and 6th of
November, that the people may
have an opportunity to give sub
Ktantial expression to the' univer
sal desire and . determination hi
the State in action inspired by
. hope, and rejoicing that will re
' sound in one unbroken chorus
from the mountain to the sea.
' T call upon all the women to
participate! v In every, hour of
danger they have ' inspired the
men of North Carolina with faith
and courage: in this day of rea
alization, they with their child-

en will come to lend this noble
:ause the charm and encourage
ment of their presence. They
can provide good things to eat,
and decorate every worker with
i badge of honor.
"Let every citizen do his duty
and these days will be long re
membered for the empetuH they
give to the cause of good roads
ind a finer civic spirit.
"I call upon the county com
missioners of every county in
the state to1 issue a proclamation
urging the people to go out on
the 5th and 6th days of Novem
ber, and labor for the welfare of
their respective counties and
communities, as well as for the
whole state of which they con
stitute a part.
"I call upon the president of
the farmer's union to issue his
proclamation to the farmers' of
North Carolina, and to their va
rious local organizations, that
this great body of our citizenship
constituting as it does the back
bone and sinew of the state, may
join with energy and enthusiasm
in this movement. More than
any other class of our citizens,
they are dependent upon the
country roads. More attractive
homes, better farming, and a fin
er rural life will result from the
building of modern highways.
"Let the work be completely
organized so that" it will reach
every neighborhood, and be con
ducted in a business and system
atic way to the end that at sun
set on the second day there will
be no community in all the state
where the hand of progress and
toil has not left its mark iu per.
manent road improvement, and
the progressive spirit its impres-
Ision in the hearts and . minds of
the people. ,
'I call upon the ministers of
the gospel, the educators, and
the press of the state to use their
mighty influence for this work,
which means not only material
development, but moral and in
tellectual development. :
'I call upon all road overseers,
good roads associations, boards
of trade, chambers of commerce,
and all association and organ!-
zations for the public' welfare
and civic betterment to give this
movement the energy . of their
influence. ' .
'1 call upon the mayor of ev
ery town and city of North Car
olina to issue, his proclamation
that his people may enlist in this
P. V. RECTOR , Marshall, North
organization, and in the building
of road upon which the pros
perity of city and town depends.
"Let every North Carolinian
show by his work that he is for
the improvement ot his state,
and let us labor that we may en
joy the fruits to day, and our
children a fuller fruition tomor
row." "Done at our city of Raleigh,
this the 27th day of September,
in the year of our Lord, 1913,

Use of Calomel
Practically
Stopped.
For Bilious Attacks, Constipation,
and all Liver Troubles. Danger
ous Calomel Gives way to Dod
son's Liver Tone.
Every druggist in the State
has no-.iced a great falling off in
the sale of calomel. : They nil
give the same reason. Dodson's
Li ver tone is taking its place.
"Calomel is often dangerous
and people know it, while Dod
son's 'i Liver Tone is' perfectly
safe and gives' better results,"
says Marshall Pharmacy.
Dodson's Liver Tone is guar
anteed by Marshall Pharmacy,
who sell it. A large bpttle costs
50 cents, and if : it fails to give
easy relief in eveiy case of slug
gishness, you have only to ask
for your money back. It will be
promptly returned. ' . . '
; Dodson's Liver Tone is a, pleas
ant tasting, purely vegtable rem
edyharmless to both children
and adults. A bottle in the
house may save yon a days work
or keep your children from mis
sing school. Keep your liver
working and your liver will not
keep you from working , . .. . ..

A Fable for
Advertisers.
Simeon Ford, the noted humor
ist, said in praise of newspaper
advertising at a banquet in New
York:
"There is a fable that all. ad
vertisers should have by heart.
It runs like this
"As a shopkeeper dozed, his
head on the dusty counter of his
shop, the grey cobwebs across
his door were rent apart, and a
goose entered. .
The shopkeeper rose with a
glad smile; he thought" he had a
customer; but when he saw the
goose he muttered an oath.
'Vhat,;("o you want here?"
he said. This is no place for
geese." ,
'Isn't it? said the goose.
'Quack, quack!' And it regard
ed the shopkeeper derisively,
then went on:
"I've come, my dear sir, 'be
cause 1 saw your advertisement
on the fence that encloses our
barnyard. I knew that you must
be a goose or else a donkey-
because otherwise you would
place your advertisement in
newspaper, where it would be
read by human beings, and not
upon an isolated fence where it
is only read by donkeys antl geese
and other barnyard denizens. So,
being lonely today, I thought I'd
make you a fraternal call. A
couple of donks will probably
drop in later. Quack, quack!'
