In Memoriam In memory of my dear uncle Monroe, who departed this life October 26, 1934. Uncle Monroe has gone and left us, Left us now forever more; But some day we will go to meet him, On the bright and golden shore. It was on one Friday morning, The hour w,as getting late; God sent a snow white angel, To open wide the golden gate. Some may think our sorrows are over, And our wounded hearts ,are healed; But they will never know the sorrow, That’s within our hearts con cealed. He is now sleeping, I am sure he is at rest; We all loved him dearly, But God loved him best. His Niece, Elizabeth Lundy Want Ads Rate: One cent a word. Minimum charge per insertion, 25 cent*.

Thursday morning “Governor” Doughton spoke on “Taxation in North Carolina.” His long as sociation with the State Revenue department and his life-time in terest in the welfare and progress of North Carolina has made him thoroughly familiar with the sources from which the state derives its income and equally familiar with the disbursement that the state in turn must make for the education, protection and progress of its people. He was followed with interest as he outlined in a clear and forceful manner the different sources from which the state draws its revenue; namely: inheritance and income taxes, personal and prop-, erty taxes, franchises, licenses and sales tax. He then cited the many benefits conferred by the state upon its citizens in re turn for taxes received. On Friday morning, Attorney R. F. Crouse, in a stirring Armis tice day address, greatly impress ed his audience by his earnest ap peal for greater respect for our national constitution. He said that unless the principles of lib erty and freedom which it em bodied were jealously guarded that we would not be keeping faith with the .ten million moth ers’ sons who died in the belief that they were fighting “to make the world safe for democracy,” and that we would jeopardize the future security of the American people. He said that mere edu cation of the youth was not enough. They must be taught to understand and reverence these fundamental principles—principles which have developed out of thousands of years of struggle and bloodshed on the part of our forefathers. In a few years hence he said the students to whom he was speaking would be shouldering the responsibility of carrying this great heritage of liberty forward. He appealed'to them in an earnest and sincere manner to rise above individual selfishness and greed, to respect this, "the greatest document ever struck off by human hands,” and to carry its principles forward inviolable. The school has designated next week November 19-23 as Book Week. During this time an effort will be made to raise some funds NOTICE t NORTH CAROLINA, ALLEGHANY COUNTY Under and by virtue of power vetted in me at Truttee in deed of trutt executed by C. A.
