Both of these are out of the way now and from now on it is our intention to putill our energies to work to improve The Gazette in every way possible A steadily increasing subscrip tion list gives ns assurance that our efforts along this line are appreciated. The personal ex pressions of pleasure which come to us daily from subscribers and others whose interest and good will in the paper are voiced in terms complimentary of our in dustrial edition, together with the nice things said about it by the State press, are greatly ap preciated by this paper. Morganton has joined the growing list of towns in the State that are putting the clamps on the dead beat. The business men of that town met last week and organized a merchants' col lection association. Its object is to collect long standing ac counts due its members and in the meantime to protect them selves against the future imposi tions of those who make debts and do not pay them. Reference has been made in these columns to the good work being done at Statesville and perhaps other points in the State by the bad debt collection agencies. This latest organization has the added advantage that the collecting of bad debts is to be done by the creditors themselves through an attorney whom they have chosen for this work. Verily, it seems that the days of the dead beat are numbered in the Old North State. " We can only add that the sooner the dead beats, one and all, reach the ends of their rows and come to the root-hog- the following invitation: "The North Carolina Agricultural Society has the honor to extend to you this invitation to attend the Forty-Seventh Annual State Fair to be held in the Citv of Raleigh Opening October 14th and closing October 19th nine teen huudred and seven, E, L.
