state case yesterday and at the conclu-
sion of the hearing William Trelore
found himself resting under sentence

Yancy represented the state. Mrs. Tre-
lore testified that at about o'clock on
last Saturday morning her husband had
returned from his work as a miner and.
after awakening her with a blow on the
head. continued to strike her. She had
begged him to cease. she said. but he re-
fused to comply and said he would kill
her even if he had to swing for it.
During the trial it was developed that
the beating was the result of the re-
fusal of Mrs. Trelore to withdraw a pre-
vious charge of beating, she had
brought against him in the court.

OUR CHILDREN OR OUR DoGs-wH1CHq

Correspondence OfThe Progressive Farmer.
Now our lawmakers are in session
and it is a good time to agitate a
much needed advance-may 1 say
reform?-in our State.
The great subject of educating our
children is ever on our hearts and
minds. We live for our children
we try to think for them, that they
may be the better able to think for
themselves and their p~osterity. In
many country places the sessions of
our public schools are limited to two
or three months in the year-a sad
comment on our laws or practice.
Can we not add one law to our stat
ute books that will help some in this
important work of education? If
there a tax of one dollar on
each dog in North Carolina and this
tax applied to the schools of the
State it would help wonderfully in
our schools.
l know some communities where
the number of dogs about equals that
of the children; would it not be a
blessing on all such places to raise a
revenue from the canine family
and put it on the human family?
With all due respect for our noble
docile friend, the dog, it surely
would add much to the advancement
of our children.
Perhaps a few of the canine family
would be taxed out of existence.
And this, too, would be an improve
ment, for then we could raise more
mutton and wool for our children to
eat and wear.
Perhaps our legislators t gen
orally men who wish to advance the
educational interests of our State
if so here is the place to make a
record, and some youth now in our
State struggling for mental advance
ment will, upon receiving this help,
rise and pronounce a eulogy upon
the North Carolina Legislature,
which, at the beginning of the goth
century, did by its wisdom and
might, add an important revenue for
our schools by turning canine sa-
gacity into human wisdom.

A GOOD REPUTATION HELPS OTHERS,

Occasionally 1 hear someone say
with a pious air cit doesn't matter
what people think of me, 1 know
my heart is right" All, my friend,
but it does matter.
Let me give you an illustration &;
In sight of my Office window is d
church tower on each of the three
sides there is a clock face. On one
of these one of the hands has been
broken, making the clock tell strange
tales. OF course, there are people
who do not understand the circum-
stances and are, therefore, misled by
it. At heart the old clocks alright,
but that doesn't alter the serious
5 of the fact that people have
been late in meeting their engage
ments and have missed their trains,
because the face is not an index to
that which it cOvers.-Sel.
