THIS WEEK'S BIBLE THOUGHT
KINGDOM IS WITHIN: Neither
hall they say, Lo here! or, lo there!
for behold, the kingdom of God is
within you. JLuke 17?2L
MUST COME SOONER OR LATER
Walter H Oakey," Jr., judge of
Perquimans County Recorder's Court;
is adhering to his expressed deter
ruination X to sentence to jail every
defendant convicted in his court of
driving sin automobile . .while drunk.
This week he sentenced the third
offender to a jail teri&fat this of.
fense.
C P Dickinson, judge of the
Recorder's Court of Wilson County,
this week also sentenced drunken
driven to jail torms.
Judge Oakey's initial step in his
avowed Intention to do everything in
his power to stop the slaughter on
the highways provoked a good deal
of favorable editorial comment in va
rious newspapers in the State. The
Associated Press carried the story of
his second jail sentence meted out to
a drunken driver.
Judge Dickinson's action this week
in sentencing drunken drivers to jail
is also very favorably commented on
by the press of the State.
That the courts have been too len
ient with these offenders in the past
is evinced by the fact that it is news
when a judge imposes a jail sentence
for drunken driving, and that every
where is there commendation for his
action expressed.
The public is at last beginning to
be aroused by the horror of so many
fatal accidents on the highways. A
large number of these deaths is
caused by the driver who is under
the influence of liquor.
'The time must come when a jail
sentence will be inevitable for the
drunkendriver.
3 TIME TO SAY "YES" OR "NO"
A chance to vote on whether or
ot to continue the corn-hog control
rogram is given the farmers.
If you do not like the program, Mr.
- Farmer, now is your time to say so.
, If you do like it and want it contin
ued, you should express yourself.
You are given an opportunity.
A REMINDER OF THE PAST
