THE TITANIC TRAGEDY

A thorough investigation OF the
Titanic tragedy of the Grand Banks
OF Newfoundland April 18th has
been in progress by the United
States Investigating committee since
that fearful catastrophe, and the in
formation gathered shows conclu-
sively that the management of the
White Star Line OF steamships we're
at fault, and their negligence in
providing proper means of escape
resulted in the loss of many lives.
1t is possible that had sufficient
number of life boats been on the
Titanic every passenger and en-
ployee would have been saved.
Safety was sacrificed to speed.
The vessels captain and manage.
ment desired to break all records
with their splendid new vessel
Many heroic actions have been re
ported, with only a few selfist

NJ IUAL HELPFULNESS

Periodically many newspapers de-
vote some time to reflection on the
interdependence OF citizens of a
community, aid OF mutual helpful
ness resulting therefrom-
This proposition applies to all
sorts OF civic and neiThborly rela-
tionships, and has special reference
TO the custom of some people in
community who think distance
lends enchantment" to transactions
of buying goods in other towns
when just as good articles at as rea-
sonable prices, in many instances
better goods for less money. can be
purchased from the home merchant.
1t is trite to say that the local
dealer spends his money in the CON-
munity in which be does business,
that his hand is ever open to the nu-
merous calls for charity and the de-
mands CT public spirit, and for these
reasons he should receive the pa.
tronage OF his home people, pro.
vided, al~ avs, that he is able e
meet the competition OF others.
In somo towns, and in a growing
measure this is true in Lexington
many ladies of the community thinl
they can secure more fashionabl,
fabrics and later styles at bette
prices in the cities than from hom
merchants. A comparison of values
and prices will doubtless disprov
this belief. Public spirit and loca
pride should induce these ladies Il
patronize tue local dealers.
Our Wonan's Civic League ha
been and is doing much for Lexing
ton. If the members OF this organi
zation should lend their influence I
the support OF local merchants ant
refuse to purchase from travelling
statesmen and saleSwomen who droI
into Lexington periodically, we be-
lieve that mutual satisfaction will
result. THE GAZETTE calls on tn,
ladies OF Lexington s Civic League
TO try this and see if it is not true.

A Government Swindle

Those who put money in the postal
savings bank receive 2 percent interest
or, if they wish, it is their privilege to
exchange the deposits for 21s percent
government bonds AT PAR. II, how
ever, the purchaser of the bonds desires
to realize on them, the open market
price is 9211s, clean loss of IL.
This is one of the many injustices
that have aoused such wide spread feel
ing against Hitchcock's administration
OF the postofiice department. If pri
vate company used the mails to sell the
people paper only worth s92 so for
$4,000, its officers would be arrested
Oft hwith. &C.
