They say when Christmas comes again
It's going to come on Monday:

And Hes our nearest neighbor.

Her dinner in the kitchen,
And never said single time
We ought to have a switching.
She let us pinch us off Il piece
OF dough to make a kitten,
And never told on us nor said
Cit out, your hands amt fitten.

Any questions we might ask her,

MIR. MONROE's WORK.
The Marginal Annotations- of the North
Carolina Supreme Court Reports


Carolina Supreme Court Reports.
To the Editor:
have recently had occasion to ex-
anime the marginal annotations Of the
North Carolina Supreme Court reports
by w. G. Munroe OF our bar. The
scope of the work is to note every case
cited by the Supreme Court in the pre-
vailing opinion. TO state Oh what point
it is cited, and whether it il approved.
distinguished, doubted modified or over
ruled. They are being printed on very
strong paper, in order that they may be
cut apart and posted on the margin at
foot or side of the decision cited; and
they are being published in such form
that they may easily. by a simple
contriyance furnished each subscriber
be fastened in the back of each volume
annotated as a temporary or permanent
part of the book. The page or pages in
which the case cited may be found is
given. so that it requires the least
amount of search to find it. The use
fulness of the system is, that when the
lawyer finds one case on the question
under investigation he has a ready index
to all cases Oh that subject. and the
ruling Of our court upon it. without hay
ing to look through all the eases cited
in that particular case, whether. on the
point under investigation or not. as is
necessary under any system with which
/ am familiar. The annotations will be
published in four divisions, covering the
reports up to and including the 121st
and will be continued hereafter as fast
as sufficient number Of reports are
published to justify il.
/ can cordially recommend the work
to my brethren Of the legal profession il
the State. The use Of ii saves valuable
time and furnishes much valuable infor
nation. Pending the publication of the
annotations | have had repeated occa-
sion TO use the annotations as entered IN
the reports in Mr.. Munroe's office, anG
have found them Of very great assist,
ance. He has done a conscientious piece
of work which has extended over d
period of nearly two years. The pro
fession can do nothing better than tc
encourage work of this sort by q
prompt and ready purchase and use oi
the work. We have many men iii Nortl
Carolina, / believe. capable of excellent
work in all lines of mental activity il
they could find sales for the product 81

Justify him in making "A complete and
