State College Writer Deplores
HighwaysMarredByBillBoards
(By Anne Pauline Smith, District
Agent, N. C. State (oiler*)
la there no way to build up sen
timent against the indiscriminate
posting of bills and the lumping of
tin cans, rubbish heaps, and old
cars along our highways?
BUI boards are a common source
of ugliness. They range In size
from the small ones on boards and
trees to the printed signs tacked on j,
telephone posts and trees. Trees
are stunted, buildings defaced, ana
the landscape obscured by them, j
Sprawling Ada.
Glaring rows of bill boards stare
at us on all sides. They are seen at j:
every turn. They sprawl across the
scenic stretches of country land
scapes and the most conspicuous
points on the highways are selected
for posting bills. Long before we ,
reach a town, we are told where to
find places to eat, places to sleep,
bargain houses and whatnot. Prop- (
erty owners permit glaring signs to
be painted on barns and bill boards j
to be erected for a small compen- (l
satlon. More often the signs are
nailed up without permission from
the owner who Is not enough In
terested in the appearance of the
property to have them removed.
Business interests are defeating
their purpose in the type of signs
and advertisements posted.
If every proj;#ty owner would
have bills removed as soon as the
lease Is out and refuse to allow new
boards of objectionable nature to
t be erected, half the problem would
be solved.
, Supervised Boards.
Where bill board advertisement is
. permitted, well designed boards
placed with discrimination, and
only with the advice and consent
or the supervising landscape archl
, tect and district Highway Super
, visor, should be permitted.
There Is another side to the ques
tion. The landscape does not be
long to any one person. Every man
should have the privilege of en
joying the scenery God has given
us and no person or business has !i
the right to obliterate scenic spots :
' by bill boards and dump heaps.
"Hot-dog stands” and sign-covered
. filling stations offend good taste
and desecrate the roadside beauty
which every man should be privi
leged to enjoy.
Tax Provided.
Section 151 of the Revenue Act
1 of 1933, Chapter 445 of Public Laws,

you must admit tnat wnen one
medicine proves to be entirely sat- '

g&rdless of age, it Is indeed a won- j •
derful preparation. Well Vim Herb, |
the new development in medicine, j
is just that. Purely vegetable and, s
as stated before, it can be taken by l
children as well as adults, without
any restriction of diet. As proof of
this we print the following state- ,
ment given by Mr. R. V. Whitworth
607 south Oak Street, Gastonia. Mr. l
Whitworth says: I think, in fact :
I know that Vim Herb i& the grand- i
est medicine we have eveT used In i
our family as a regulator and lax- i
atlve. It works just fine and be't of i
all the children like to take It. I '
[ got Vim Herb for myself and wife ;
at first and the results were so <
pleasing we just made a family i
medicine out of it. We find that it 1
acts mildly as a laxative, cleans the >
! entire system, ard make,'- a perso'.’
reel better in every way. I was auo
troubled with getting up at night
jut Vim Herb relieved me of that
trouble, also my wife, as well as
,he children, all take Vim Heib
Jid every one of them feels and
x>ks better than they have for some
lme. I gave a friend of mine some
Him Herb, said she was Just about
lown with a bad cold but after a
ew doses of this medicine she felt
letter in every way As I said be
ore Vim Herb is the best all round
nedlcine I have ever used and we
ire glad that we can tell others
ibout U. It any of my friends are
n poor health I urge them to give
Him Herb a trial.” A special Repre

United efforts on the part of
