"MINOR TRAGEDY" i An editorial on the above topic in tbo Wlneton-Salem' journal gives a Way the fact that Editor Santford Martin is off on a vacation or something. The editorial bag to <?o <.with a Kinston boy who was greatly die. M dMpafaaNMhwi in i ffftmramp have a pig thai he br.tl won in a prize contest. Two reasons were clt< <>4 why the boy could net have the pig: the recipient had ic be n country boy and the health department would not allow a pig in tho ' cor porate limits of the city. There was word of understanding sympathy (Or the boy in his d'sappointment that could have been written ??- Editor Martin. However, the editorial Went on to say that a pig ooutd be sb treated that It would never squeal and that the pen could be kept odorless and Editor Martin - knows better than that. He is a Sun day school teacher and knows whrf the Good Book says about a hog returning to its wallow. Even though the prize pig was a pure blood, that pure blood was hog blood and as tho hart pasteth after the waterkiceks, so the pie ranteth for a tnndhole. If here is not one he will proceed to make one. His pen also atinketh. Call it a swine parlor or what one will it reroaineth a pig pes Editor Martin knows all of this and more. That is the reason we conndently affirm that he is now o'n his vacation. However much his heart might go out in sympathy for a city boy who craved a pet pig he knows that it Just is not done In the limits of a city that boasts a health department and a zoning commission. Ho might have labeled the eiitoriai a major instead of a m'nOT tragedy oiit being acqnaluted with pigs asd tlielr habits from childhood he would have never suggested; the pcr.?.i*'llty of keepinc ore of the ? things as. a pet or for a porker. He Would have advised .the disappointed lad to forget it as Just toother impossible longing. ?Charity and Children, r .' J ' . KILLING TO CURE As late as the year 3800 more than 200 crimes were punishable by death in England and it was not until 1846 that there began" in this country the process of pruning the powers of gov ernment to put Its citizens to death on flimsy charges. Thus we maf well look into a bill now pending in Washington and which would have made cur deathdealing dorefathers green with envy Under Its previsions, officers of directors of companies who- ' "have knowledge" of an ami trust viola tiens are liable to any or all cf the following penalties: a $5,000 fise, a yeaT in Jail, mandatory forfeiture of twice their salaries for the period of the violation, and temporary or permanent Injusction against serving th company or its competitors'. No oie would object seriously to drastic penalties if guilt in anti trust cases could be determined with ab-. ohite accuracy. But, with the pres | est ciourmess ana oDscuniy 01 mucn i of this legislation. business men fre Ouently cannot tell whether certain Industrial practices are legal or illegal. Such decisioss rest on the whim of a bureau in Washington. In | such circumstances, sentence of "industrial death" for those who may have stepped over the borderKbo in ignorance is scarcely the way to aid that return to prosperity tha> business is so anxious to achieve. 8PENDING HA3 FLOPPED Apparently the only protection the tuition hae against further sizable increases in the staggering national debt lies in ^he reluctance of Congress to again raise the legal debt limit. That limit is not set at $45,000,000,000, And the current debt pomes uncomfortable close to that mark.The recant proposed plan whereby the government's lending powers would be increased almost $4,000,000 0C0-, which would appear neither in the budget nor the debt, is designed to lefcnlaete the protection of the $?bt. limit. , No plan ever devised go old. do more to promote eventual bankruptcy.

"But what about this Hgypt business!" said Wllloughby maliciously. Tou cant take her with you, Harry. When the Dervishes catch a white man they out his nose oS and hang him up by his toes.
