CONTRASTS.


Unknown-Have We Descend
ed From Our Former High
Plane?
To the Editor of The Robesonian:
| must not forget the Colonel
in the ramblings of the past, and
1t is hard to realize that nearly
forty years have past since his
familiar footsteps were potent
qualities on his domain. Only
the other day saw in an old
clubhouse his familiar walking
stick, and, near by, hanging on
the wall, his old coat, easily recog-
nizable by the fashionable cut Of
that day. These are held as
sacred relics of a very masterful
man who in his day ruled we'll
his household, and everything
else that came in his way.
often muse on the difference
in times now and then. Those
old citizens who inhabited the
world in those days may have
been guilty of a good many sins,
both of omission and commits
sion, but they were honest and
sincere in their dealing with
their fellow-men. They knew
little of the word mortgage, and
as for liens, they had never heard
of the word. In most cases a
mans word was as good as his
bond, and trickery and short
cuts were looked upon by the
better portion of the citizens as
beneath a gentleman's notice.
Now what has brought this
great change in the moral status
Of our citizenship? Does poverty
demoralize one, and was it be.
cause we!were not able to main
tain ours former financial credit
that we descended into the low
grounds of mortgages and liens:
Whatever it was we have de-
scended as a people from the
high plane we once occupied to
one of catch-penny and deceit.
] hope the next Legislature will
repeal the lien law, and throw
merchants and farmers upor
their honor in their transactions,
Then the man who pays up bis
debts will not have to pay fol
other peoples accounts. Mer
chants can then do business with
smaller profits and farmers cal
more easily manage labor.
On the other hand, we have
better houses, we live more com
fortably, we travel more ant
dress better, and are more liberia
in our benevolent causes.
Now which do you prefer
Take the case, gentlemen.

Easter Occurs Late in March.

Easter comes exceptionally early this
year, in fact, earlier than any other
year since 1900. The first full moon
after March % will appear March %,
therefore, Easter, which is always the
first Sunday after this occurrence, will
be March q. Easter will not be so
early again, except in 1913, when it
comes on March %, until 1921, when it
falls on the same date as this year.
1t is also observed that in regard to
double holidays 1910 will give US one
more than 1909, since Lincoln's birth
day comes on a Saturday. Memorial
day, as well as Independence day,
comes on a Monday, while Christmas
falls on a Sunday which will, in all
probability, be observed the following
Monday.

Work Will Be Heavy.

According to the statements made by
officials of the B. & 0. railroad regard
ing plans for betterment and main
tenance work during the coming sum-
mer, expenditures by the maintenance
department will exceed those of any
previous year. Early in January of
each year division officials send reports
to general headquarters showing the
amount of money required to keep
tracks in condition during the year.
Some of the divisions are asking for
about so per cent more money than
was expended in 1909 and about 10 per
cent more than was appropriated in
1907 1t is pointed out that on account
of the retrenchment on the line main
tenance work since August /, 1907, has
been comparatively light.
