I was raised (not reared> about 19 miles from a town, but there was a country store only about 7 miles from home and we visited there once or twice a year when any of us could get "holt" to a nickel or a I penny. We ran into a little civiliza jtion at the store. .1 recall that a "town ' man I came to our house one day to go a fishing. We lived near a large river. II was about 16 years of age at that j time, and 1 had a brother who was I older and several brothers and sis | ters younger. We were all curious and white heated. We dodged strang ers with the same agility that we 1 would have shunned or dodged bears ! and maddogs. .... on account of a very neavy i rain, this "town" man had to spend | the night at our house. His horse | never would have pulled his buggy over the socalled road that ’-an from our farm to the Lord only knew where—we diddent. It was indeed a great honor to have a fine, rich man spend a night at our house, so we fixed up for him from fried chick en to the featherbed in the company | room. I. ... . There w ere 2 knot holes I through the wall into the company ! room that permitted Pete and my self to gaze through when we had anything to gaze at <N. B. We never gazed at women through knot holes or otherwise, as we were too timid to let a female see us). Well, this | visitor was accompanied to the room by father and the fellow said: "Good night” to him, and he said “Good bye. Mr. Brown,” but that wassent his name: It was Smith .... The “town” man took off his clothes and to our utter amazement and astonishment, he had some oth j er clothes still on him. We had nev ' er seen any under-clothes up to that night, and believe it or not, that guy had on 2 undergarments. We had never worn anything in our family except a shirt and a pair of britches —except when it was very cold, we wore two pairs of britches—if we could find any to wear. . . Well, after^he got his uner 1 clothes off. he reached into a satchel ! and fetched out a long dress and put it on. <Later on, we learned that that dress was a nightshirt). ' He combed his hair before he got in bed. We had heard of folks combing I their hair after they got out of bed j He took off his socks—that was new to us. He removed the pillow shams . from the pillow’s. (One had this em ^ broidered, on It—“At Rest” and the othes one had this—“In Sleep'). He 1 crawled into bed and was snoring loutjl.y in a few minutes. and so were me and Pete. People Moving Back To Rural Sections Formerly Attracted To City By High Hates, People Are Mov ing Back to Farms. Raleigh, June 21.—"Farming as a vocation is becoming increasingly popular with city and town people as shown by the greater number who are moving to the country,” declar ed Angus W. McLean, former gov ernor of North Carolina. "My obser vation and experience in the last few months coincides with the facts brought out in the federal govern ment's figures showing the move ment of people to the country. In 1930, a total of 1.392,000 persons left the towns and cities to farm—the largest movement of this kind since the government began to record such movements in 1922, In the lat ter year, the exodus from the farms amounted to 1,120,000; in 1924, 679, 000; in 1925, 1,0202.000; in 1927 , 604, 000; in 1928, 376,000; in 1929, 619, ; 000; and in 1930, 151,000. "It is significant that, the move ment from farms* to the cities and towns has declined progressively and that the number of people go ing from the city to the country in ' 1930 was the largest since 1924. ''Farmers were attracted to the j cities because of high wages and I the ease with which they could find | employment. Many of the people Snow returning are those who prev iously farmed or their sons. They will find farm real estate selling on about a pre-war basis. Agricultural 1 commodities do not bring fancy prices, but agriculture should re cover from the current depression along with or before Industry. With a better market for farm products, land values should be stabilized at above their presentr4evels."

The Charlotte council, meeting late Thursday, ordered the suspen sion of Alex West, night captain who shot Mason, and of patrolmen Guy Vickery and R. C. Cordell, who had arrested the young man. The officers declare that Mason had been placed under arrest but broke away from the officers and attempted to escape. The night cap tain, seeing the fleeing man and noting that he was escaping from the other two officers shot Mason to stop him, it is alleged. We trust the investigation will be .sufficiently exhaustive to prove def initely whether or not the officers are at fault or were simply doing their duty. It looks, at. a distance, as if It might be a case of family prominence causing a shake-up un der circumstances that might have been accepted as perfectly proper if the wounded young man had been from a lower rank in life. The idea of officers shooting promiscuously without plenty of provocation is, of course, all wrong However, a man who has been ar rested by officers of the law should realize the consequences of at tempting to escape. Ii he is bring held without cause, he has nothing to fear because he can easily prove his case at the first opportunity. It will be interesting to await the termination of a most unfortunate incident. Let us hope, though, that the young man’s injury will not prove fatal.
