SEABOARD Ramblin’ Bill To Hospital; Desires To Be Buried Here If Worst Comes to Worst Hr Hopes To Return at Last To Native C'ountv. To the Editor: If its not asking too much, have your circulation man mall rny Stax to mu at the following address u» Ml further notice W. B. Williamson, U. S. Clov’t j Hosp. I'ort Whipie, Aria. As some wise looking doctors have been looking over me lately and de cided that I will have to submit my carcass for another thorough going over where they use all such crude Instruments as saws, tiles and probes, etc. The old heart Just got a stubborn spell and refused to act In a manner becoming to a good heart, and they have decided that the best thing that Rambling Bill can do during these hot summer months Is to repose peacefully in among the pines at or near Prescott, Arizona as a guest of Uncle Sam. Yesterday I thought I was O. K., today I’m en route to a hospital, the first time In years, but one can nev er tell, and perhaps I’ll get to write my own obituary yet. In case my body ahould come back to North Carolina aome of these days, I want to be burled somewhere In Cleveland county atop a little knoll where the gentle breeze will rustle leaves over head, and I trust that some kind soul back there will carve on a tree near by or chisel on some rock the the following, “Here Lies Ramblin’ BUI, He Rambled All.Around; He Lived While He Lived and Died When He Died,” and I guess there wiU be enough Insurance to pay for the plot and to hire some kind un dertaker to plant me In a spot like that. But I believe that I will cheat the undertaker this time, as I have cheated him in the past occasions. Being in a government hospital, for a few months Is not so bad in itself. Cut* Compensation. The nurses are fairly good looking and the doctor will not cut off your leg unless you happen to go to sleep during their working fiours. Once T i went to sleep In one and waked up minus my tonsils and adenoids. An other time they cut of my compen sation, which hurt worse than the AVOID PEN ALTY Tax payers must list their property for county taxes. Fail ure to do so involves a penalty which can not he escaped. See the tax lister in the township in which you own property and give in your real and personal prop erty at once. R. L.

From the gleam in his eye t felt that no doubt he was forwarding some specific in structions to the staff at the hos pital to never suffer me to get away from there with my appendix, be cause that about all that Is left for them to cut out, except one of my arms or legs.

Let's hope it learns them a lesson, they will long remember. With best wishes, and hoping that I’ll live to see a few more Stars, I #nv . .. Sincerely. ‘ RAMBLIN’ BILL. Million More Acres Goes In Foods Asheville Citizen. The figure given by Governor Gardner In his live-at-home radio talk. Thursday evening encouraged the belief that N. C. farmers are making a sincere and determin ed effort to produce as far as it is possible for them to do so all of the foodstuffs and feedstuff* which they will require or their own use. There was a significant increase last year in the acreage planted to other crops than cotton and tobacco and the Increase this year appears to have been even greater. The next important thing Is to save these crops for use this fall and Winter. Oovemor Oardner stressed especi ally the wisdom of canning and pre serving all of the surplus vegetables, truck and fruit grown hr 1031. Last year, he says, the reports of the county agents reported that ir. fifty seven counties In which home dem onstration work was organized the farm women and girls of North Car olina put up 1,500,000 cans of food products and that these agents pre dict an increase of a million cans tins year. That will be a fine record and yet it would be less than a can of food products for each person In the state. North Carolinians spend mil lions of dollars every year for food stuffs which the could make and save*themselves. Governor Gardner asks them the very pertinent ques tion, where are these millions com tng from this year. Can they come he asks, from cheap cotton and cheap tobacco? Of course not. Cot ton in Georgia last year was grown at an average loss of nearly two cents a pound. Probably-the situa tion In North Carolina was about the same. That means that the cot ton grower who holds his owm with cotton prices at the prevailing lev els will be the farmer who raises and saves as much as possible of the things he will need to eat. The estimates furnished the gov ernor indicate that a million more acres in North Carolina have been planted in foodstuffs and feedstuff# ■ than in 1930. If these estimates are correct they spell progress and hope. Safer Driving Is Needed. (From The Gastonia Gazette.) The pedestrian, apparently, is learning how to take care of him self in traffic much better than the motorist Is. The National Safety Council has Just reported that while more than half of the persons killed In auto mobile accidents are pedestrians, deaths among drivers are increasing at a far more rapid rate. Since 1927, deaths to pedestrians have Increas ed only 5 per cent; among drivers, in the same period, deaths have in creased 35 per cent In other words , deaths among pedestrians are increasing only about as rapidly as the number of pedestrians Increases; deaths among driven are increasing more than twice as fast as the number of au tomobiles increases. Evidently, we need -careful driv ing” campaigns much more than we need “don't Jay-walk" campaigns. Some Trip. Vienna— Rotartan Waller, of l ong Beach.

Supreme Court To Pass On Tax And Bond Issues Court To Decide Whether Bonds Are For Special Or General Tar pones. By M. R. DLNNAGAN Raleigh, June ?2.~The North Car olina Supreme court haa before It the first constitutional problem ar ising from the actions of the 1931 session of the general assembly and one of Importance to many of the 100 counties and 432 municipalities In the State. Two test cases are be fore the court, one from Duplin, the other from Durham county, and were heard by the court last Sat urday, In order that the problem might be disposed of as soon as possible. The question la this. Many units of government have Issued tax anticipation notes to pay cur rent expenses and to be repaid by revenues later. Some of these units failed to realise the revenues suf ficient to meet these notes. The 1931 local government act permits the funding of these notes by issuance and selling of bonds, the interest and principle being payable "from an unlimited tax upon all taxable property" of the unit, placing It as a tax for a special purpose. Special Or Gereral rnrpese, The Supreme court is to decide whether such funding is for a spe cial purpose, in that 'the present economic condition make it an em ergency, as is provided In the local government act, and such bonds re tired by special tax levies; or wheth er such tax would be for general current expenses and, therefore, against the constitutional prohibi tion of a levy'of more than 15 cents on the *100 of property valuation for current operating expenses. This action has a bearing on the law enacted by the recent general assembly which would permit 30 odd counties to levy taxes for court and jail costs and the cost of the quadrtennial revaluation of proper ty as special purposes and In addi tion to the 15-cent limit for gener al expenses. Belief is that the act is unconstitution, but it was enact ed as a method of keeping county commissioners out of jail" for ex ceeding the 15-cent limit of tax levy, What Others Say APPRECIATES AID To the Editor: My term as post commander of the Warren F. Hoyle post No. 82, the American Legion, expires Octo ber 20. 1931, but I take advantage of this opportunity to congratulate the post.

Washington — Mrs. Edward E j • Dolly) Gann Is quietly swinging In- ] to the political campaign tor 1932. Vice-President Curtis’ sister is finding her peaceful summer days tn her own spacious home are inter rupted occasionally by invitations to make speeches. And though she claims she is not a "speech maker,” rarely does Mrs. Gann decline. She addressed the young Republi cans at their recent conference here, and was enthusiastically received by the college boys and girls. It was not entirely a new experi ence for her.

Special Districts May Be Abolished By Vote Of People Majority Voters Can Eliminate Special Tax. Must Take Care Of Debts. Raleigh, June 24.—Special school districts may be abolished If a ma jority of the qualified or registered voters cast ballots against the local tax, but arrangements must be made for a local levy to continue to carry the district's debt sendee. At torney General Dennis G. Brummltt ruled yesterday. Many school districts of tire state have In the past levied special taxes to provide better schools than af forded by counties. The question of abolishing these districts came to the front following the action of the legislature approving state sup port of the six months term. An election to abolish a school district must be called by county commissioners upon petition of 25 per cent of the number of register ed voters in the special district. Mr. Brummltt made known his ruling in a letter to Dr. A, T. Allen, state superintendent of public in struction. Earl Community News Of Interest Visitors From Georgia With Mr. And Mrs. Hulsey. Mr. A.

With very little labor dorons oi cans of fruits and berries and va- j rlous garden vegetables can be preserved now for consumption this winter. Soon peaches and ap ples will be ripe and they can be preserved for delicious pies this winter. Apples, whether you believe it or not, arc good for more than: elder. Western North Carolina farm! women, following a usual practice.; will can sufficient fruits and vege-j tables and berries during the sum mer to supply them this winter. | There will be preserves and Jam and - Jelly for the winter. Beans and com! and tomatoes ana beets and water-! melon rind and pickles can be can ned or the farm, ‘put up’ in glass Jars, thus to assure a steadier in- f come for the farm. We can remember when children! were expected to pick berries for' thetr mothers to preserve. The i memory of pies n mid-winter, pies! made from home grown wheat and! home picked berries, Unger on. This is one of the side issues of i farming that cannot be neglected.; If a housewife in the past has neg- j lected this phase of her work, home; rwnonstration agents in Nash and! ,TlJgecombe county are willing to! furnish instructions and to help in; the process. Governor Gardner ad vocated this plan in his radio ad dress and long practice in certain sections of the state where hun tdreds of jars are found packed away in cellars of almost every farm house when winter comes proves it feasible. It is simply one of the loose ends of farming that should be gathered up. The house wife in the city who can vegetables and fruit* that can be purchased | inexpensively, will be able to save' large amounts in her annual gro-! eery bill.
