DURHAM. N. c., Oct. IA, 1909.
FOR THIRTy-sINE YEARS.

To mention the above period
of time it appears long one,
and really it is, and the changes
that have taken place in that
time in Durham have been moth
ing less than wonderful. During
all this period of time to have
been a leading spirit in a town
and community is no small thing,
and Durham should feel doubly
proud of her founder and lead
ing citizen of today-Gen Julian
S. Carr, who takes great pleas
ure telling that only last Tuesday
he celebrated the Both year OF
his citizenship in Durham.
A correct history of Durham
and the leading commercial en-
terprlses, scn,cis. churches, and
civic Improvements could not be
written unless the name of Gen
era Carr was prominent in the
writing. Running all through
the history Of Durham is seen
the handof this man that notonly
took his place among the men
that were working for the up
building Of Durham but in most
cases he took "a leading part in
public enterprises that meant the
upbuilding of the town. From a
history of Durham published %
years ago. the following facts re-
garding the part Gen. Carr play
ed in the life of the city, will be
of interest:
Mr.. Carr is emphatically a
man Of the people and for the
people. The humblest and mos;
illiterate man hAs equal access e
his presence with the weaithiest
and most learna !. and he is cour.
teous and attentive to all. he is
constantly besiegei By scores Of
visitors on all sorts OF business :
all leaving his presence with
their various wishes and peti
tons, when laudable, favorably
considered. The writer has wit
messed this incessant stream d
visitors for many months, ans
has never in all his life seen an!
Jne man who had less time !,
devote to his own personal q
public affairs than Mr.. Carr

From Route 5. ROxb0rO.

Hill, recently, spent some time
with her sister, Mrs. P. S. Rog-
ere, of Route 5, Roxboro.
Our very efficient teacher,
Miss Hettie Rogers, will teach
district school No. 5 again this
year.
Mr.. G. H. Jones attended the
Masonic Lodge in Roxboro a few
nights ago, where they raised
Mr.. Lundy Bowles to the sub
lime degree of a master mason.
Mr.. Bowles thinks that when he
reached the last step in the third
degree that he reached the top
and the best of all. He also pro-
nounced the preceding degrees
to be good if they would live up
to it in every respect.
Robert Tuck will soon move to
the Gilbert Moore farm on Rich
land Creek, where he is expect
ing to make a crop next year.
We are glad to have Mr.. Tuck as
our neighbor.
A Mr.. Wilson and his family,
of Richmond, Va, while return
ing from Durham recently on
his automobile, stuck in the mud
on the road between Barton's
crossing and Roxboro, and it took
the power of a strong horse and
seven men to get the machine
out. If these machines are as
numerous in the future as they
have been in the past for weeks.
it would pay to establish an en-
CINE at the red flats to pull them
out of the mud. Automobiles ar.

mud, and then they do not have

Telephones !. have SO important
place in the social lie OF Today that
there Is quite as much etiquette In
regard ito them as there is to other
matters. Take the word itself, for
instance. We began by calling 1t
telephone" as a matter Of course,
and always in speaking Of using 1t re-
ferred to 1t as "telephoning." But
this soon became corrupted by the
lazy and slipshod into phone" and
"phonIng." which pleased the ears OF
many and we're widely adopted until,
among certain classes. they are firm.
" established as the accepted par.
lance when referring to, or the use Of
the most Indispensable invention OF
tho age. sT5
But the language Of the polite
world does not admit OF Authorizations
of any sort. In good society any
form of sloyenliness Is abhorrent and
to speak in sllpshod way indicates
as untilyness OF speech ns distaste-
full anil as little to be tolerated asNun.
tidyness Of person or Of dress. And,
consequently, well!bred people from
one end OF the country to the other
say telephone" and look askance at
the persons who shorten It.
When you are calling up your
friends to greet them with "Hello!"
Is as bad form as IT is to say "phone"
or "phonlng." Hello" belongs strict
ly to the business world and mas no
place in the social. either at the tele-
phone or at any other place. You
should say Good morning by way OF
greeting at the telephone, just as you
would at home or in your friends

encounter one another. II another
