Now if the Hall-Mills case and the Mc • ; Pherson orgy should end what would we have to read about, how could the newspapers be filled? AFTER AGREEMENT WHAT? T.he Democrats, the headlines say, have agreed on the s'” jbt the tax slash. And it would bo equally as easy for Yc , .Twinkier and a friend to *iooe on reced ing a million dollars | each. Getting either, however, is the problem. FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF ff North Carolina loses nothing by high-priced marriage li fe cense.

Mmdm r, that rd low cm-i, (hnr j*with hits $100 hill cornered the snare change. Hereabouts ’Cstatistics seem to have lied for once. NO NEWS. GOOD NEWS Some philosopher of I he horse-sense variety once said ‘‘No news is good news" and pe.haps that’s why the front pages tof our newspapers are really newsy and tell quite a bit of •crime. Speaking of the event; considered news here are the headlines on one o' the South’s leading morning papers of liast week: “Mauler Accused of Juggling Money,” “Murder ^Described in Gnnhic Manner;” “Lost Youngster Dies of Ex jsure;” “Trio Who Sho" Uo Burnsville Caught;” “$250,000 4pos j*Lttfel Stiit Outgrowth of Merger Battle;” “Professor and ^Family Poisoned At i! vrM o’ ‘‘Two Head in Duel;’' “Air *n€n Fatally Hurt As Plane Falls;” “Cue of Masked Band Killed”; ”13 Guardsmen Indicted in Rum Rin<r;” “Eyesight Restore d When Powder Explodes in Fa “Two Troopers Jailed On Murder Charges;” “Poison Suspected ia Death of |iar.” _^_ (Dne of the few other headlines told of Queen Marie’s de cision concerning “Show Me the Way to Go Homo.” H No news is good news, and good news would menu nothing to read-at the breakfast table. SEABOARD PULLMAN SERVICE Shelby knows now what one of its railroad rumors hinted f^x Some weeks ago the president of the Seaboard road ade his first trip to Shelby in his private ear and he was companicd by several of hi:; high officials. A dav was ent touring the section to the westward. Sensing that such 1 ip was not for pleasure alone this paper heralded an pnt Qf importance to the folks along the Seaboard line west Shelby. Now comes the word that next summer the Sea ird will operate Pullman service as far west as Ruther rdton and will use bus freight and passenger from the atherford county seat on to Chimney Rock, which means ■ sb hvuch to the resort region. _he announcement of what is really going to happen ould not discourage those who hope to see the day when road itself will be extended on to Chimney Rock and iersonville. Seaboard officials sec something to the reg ■ they would not do what they have announced they do- And in that light the bus plan is on an experiment, _Jlough traffic conies over the added Pullman service and j bus extension look for the building of the road on into the it&ins. Remember our prediction. BIG HEROES NEVER KNOW. One of the pranks of life that in all the games of living “ it heroes usually go unsung,, and for the most part ; iown. Take the line player in football. Whoever of his great playing? Yet without seven good line there never could be a good football eleven—seven there giving their all continuously while a back with lute's play corners the glory. this is of a story other than football. It is related to ledge by Harry Stillwell Edwards. One of the big reasons why the Allies defeated the Germans that the Brit ish Navy seemed to sense injadvance every move of the German fleet, submarines and all. Every time a German sub or battleship moved out of its course an Allied vessel was waiting, prepared for just what took place. The reading pub ic gave the British credit for being a brainy outfit; the wise j.its calculated it to be the work of the British Secret Service- Neither was right. An unknown of the war, a young fellow named E. C. Miller, was the reason. By accur ate warning of suomarine attacKs he probably saved tne lives of thousands of American soldiers on transports. Who was he 7how did he do it? Miller was a diver and following tne sinking of one of tne first German submaries he dived to tbe bottom, ransacked the submarine’s safe and the pock ets of the officers and by so doing brought to surface the secret code of the German navy and the inner plans of the fa mous fleet, thereafter when a submarine scouted along any Piace for a loaded ship to send to a watery grave there was always a prepared enemy awaiting. And following the sink mg oi every German ship young Miller kept diving, and very time ihe German code was changed he found it. Re .nemou' those hectic days then figure just how much a man j .ju nerer heard tell of had to do with licking Germany. And -hink tor a minute if that was pleasant work. Under water tor hours, tieing dead bodies to something stationary while .;o worked, lighting off sea crabs, choking for air Was it not fitting that Kings George after the war interviewed him per tonally and pinned mecials on his chest? A Successful Cow Campaign Interest in dairying in North Carolina is at high pitch since the successful completion of the state wide dairy-sire campaign conduct ed during the first c?g?it months of the year. During that time. 22,; scrub hulls were removed frdm the state and 350 purebred sires were placed. One full transportation and live three-fourths transportations to the National Dairy Show were given as rewards to the six coun ty agents doing the best work in the campaign. A fui: transportation was given to the district agent in whose territory the greatest amount of work was done. Aside from the benefits received by the State in having so many pe.eDrcd bulls placed, the large amount of educa tional work and puTicity in con nection with the campaign is re sulting in a renewed interest in dairying. According to W. E. Win termeyer, of the United States bu oau ot dairy industry, who coop rated with John A. Arey, state dairy specialist, in conducting the campaign, this is one of the best examples of success in such work in ihe South. The older you get the quicker he future becomes the past. Monarch Put Above Law “The king rim do no wrong.” Is a lognl axiom Hint still holds good In l'.ivglnntl. .lames I rq firmly be lieved In this prittHrrte llmt lie enr^ vied It to the extent of claiming divine right for everything he did. Rven now the king’s person Is ab solutely exempt from arrest. He never ran be sued In it court of law. nor Is he required to attend and give evident**, says the Mont real Family Herald. As lie Is above I the .lodges, he has the power of remitting any punishment Imposed ] on a suh.leet. A curious result of the king’s le ! gal position Is that he Is dehirred from arresting or giving Informa tion that will lend to the arrest of a criminal, sinee nobody ran be 1 both Judge and prosecutor. Government and Liberty The people who exercise the power are not always the same peo ple over whom It Is exercised : and the self-government spoken of ts not the government of each by him self, hut of each by all the rest. The will of I he people, moreover, practically means the will of the most numerous or the most active part of the people; the majority, or i those who succeed In making them i selves accepted as the majority: the people, consequently, may de sire to oppress a part of their num ber: and precautions are ns much j needed against this ns against any other abuse of power.—John Stu art Mill.

Longfellow's Maine Home Thorp is ,11 Longfellow house In Portland, thh home where he spent much of his boyhood. It was built In 1785, by the poet’s grandfather, (Jen. Peleg Wadsworth, and was the first brick house in Portland. It stands on Congress street, nest to the mansion of Commodore Preble, and It still exists in its original form except that .Stephen Longfellow added a third story to It. This was Longfgllow'g home when he re turned from college, from Ids trips abroad, and when afterward he made his visits from Cambridge. By the sister’s will the hoiffce with most of Its contents was left to the Maine Historical society, to be kept ns a memorial to her distinguished brother. In It have been deposited by the family many Interesting things associated with the Wads worths and the Longfellows, and there the poet's admirers nm.f'-jjee the desk where “The Itatny Ilgy” waa written, and mementos of his childhood and youth.
