Staying Within Their Limits.

1t is said by those having the mat
ter in hand that an inspection of the
records in the various express offices
in this section shows that the people
are keeping within the limits of the
law in the matter of the shipment
Of liquor.
This is one of the results of the re-
cent raid on the blind tigers in this
section, when several were sent up
to superior court at Halifax. Those
having the matter in charge say
that a close watch will be main
tanned and all these found violating
the law by running over shipments
will be promptly and severely dealt
with as the law directs.

A Delightful House Party.
(Reportcd.)

tReported.J
Miss Anna Kitchin for several days
has been the charming hostess at
one Of the most delightful and en-
| joyab!e house parties ever given in
Scotland Neck. her guests being
Miss Swannanoa Horne, Of Clayton,
Miss Jeanette Daniel, Of Weldon,
and Miss Myra Vann, Of Edenton.
Others visiting here on account Of

gene and Charlie Daniel Of Weldon,
with William Mcdowell; Lord"
Cooley, of Nashville, with Danford
Josey; Dwight Barber, Of Clayton,
E. B. Josey, CT Tarboro, and Lieut..
George Bryan, of Annapolis.
Never was more congenial party
assembled at more hospitable home.
All things combined to make the oc-
casion most pleasant, Beginning
Tuesday, the 22nd Of July, and con-
tinuing through ten days, one ct
tractivc feature after another filled
each day with a continual round cf
pleasures. Automobiles were at the
disposal Of the party, and at times
trips were taken to such places as
Rocky Mt, Tarboro, the North Car
DINA State Farm, and other points
of interest in the locality. One of
the most enjoyable features Of the
house party was the supper given by
Hon. Claude Kitchin Thursday night
at Rocky Mount to the guests and
their many friends, the crowd going
over in cars.
The days passed all too swiftly and
too soon was realized that the house
party was ended, but all who were
entertained in this roya! home by
these ileal people have nothing but
praise and appreciation for the gra-
cious hospitality accorded them. AS
the swiftly gliding days 60 by and
the wears come ard go they will ever
continue to cherish in ten Ter memo
ry the bright and happy days when
they were guests in such a delight

Death OF Miss Pauline Leicester.

On August 1, 1913, Miss Pauline
Leicester entered the haven of rest.
Her life was blessing to those who
knew her. She loved her Sunday
School and at the age of fourteen
she made profession Of faith and
united with the Baptist church of
which she has been a consistent
member for two years.
She was Industrious and maintair-
ed a happy disposition, notwith-
standing the fact that shs was the
victim of a cruel accident from
which she could not hope to recover.
| When little child her arm was Sc
verely burned and when it healed
her forearm was drawn to her up
per arm and this was attached to
her side rendering her arm entirely
useless. About three months ago
her physician cut it loose and it was
nearly we'll when she was stricken
with fever about two weeks ago and
rapidly approached the end.
She was laid to rest in the Baptist
cemetery Saturday morning in tie
presence of a host of mourning and
sympathetic friends Of the family.
She is survived by her parents,
Mr.. and!Mrs. G. T. Leicester, five
sisters, Lilly, Ruth, Idonia, Geneva
and Elizabeth, and one brother,
Clarence. With the exception of
Ruth and the baby the entire family
has been sick with typhoid fever
within the last two months. Mrs.
Leicester, Lilly, ldonia and Geneva
are still sick.
In this storm of sickness and this
bitter sorrow the family has the
sympathy of wide circle Of friends.

Better Paint.

Better paint this year if your pro
perty needs it. Mistaken men have
been waiting for paint to come
down. The cost of their job has
gone-up not down; it always goes
up by waiting; never comes-down
Better paint than Devoe? There
isn'tany.
Suppose one had waited 20 or SO
years ago for a better paint than
Devoe; how long would he have
waited? How long would would he
still have to wait?
The price a gallon makes some
difference; yes, but not mach; it's
the paint that counts; the quality
counts.
It's the go-far that counts. Pro-
lection Of property counts more yet.

Washington, May 5.-President
Wilson proposes to make the depart

dollar diplomacy. He intends to
broaden it's scope, develop American
trade abroad and remove suspicious

junct. The president made this plain
at today's conference with the news

day the president and Secretary Red
field conferred on the subject. The
president is marking time" until
the return of Secretary of State
Bryan before commenting on the
anti-alien land law passed by the

Wilson has received the bill by tele-

Portland and Pasadena Adopt Com
mission Government i'm Their
New Charters Last Week.

Portland, Ore, May 5.-The city
has emerged from the throes of one
political campaign only to be thrust
in the midst of another.
When the commission form of
government was adopted at Satur-
days election it made necessary the
election of a mayor and four COM
missioners. Those who were nomi-
mated for office under the old form
of government had their efforts null
lifted by the adoption of the charter
amendment.
A number of candidates had their
petitions of cand dacy ready to be
filed Saturday night as soon as the
result of the election was definitely
known, and others were out bright
and early today securing certificates
that will entitle them to run. To
qualify to run for the elective Of
fices candidate must secure 100
nominating certificates signed by
bona fide voters.
All the candidates for mayor nom
mated under the direct primary have
signified their intention of running
for mayor under the commission
form. They are A. G. Rushlight, re-
publican, incumbent; H. R. Albee,
progressive, and c. L. McKenna,
democrat.
Under the commission form there
are but six elective offices: a mayor,
whose salary is fixed at $4,000; four
commissioners at $1,000 and an aud
itor at not less than $4,000.

The Janitor and the Peanuts.

Earl Goodwin, who writes human
interest stuff for several newspapers,
went to the Department of Agricul-
ture in Washington one day, and Sc
cured a peck of diseased peanuts.
The scientists in the department
were having a hot argument as to
whether or not the peanuts. If eaten,
would kill a human being and God
win took the eatables to his office
to have them photographed. He saw
big story in the fact that the high
browed scientific men could not tell
when a peanut was fatal.
The next morning when he entered
his office he found that the whole
peck was gone. He instituted a
search, and finally discovered that
the colored janitor had stolen and
eaten the peanuts.
After keeping the janitor under
observation for three days, and see
ing that he neither peeked nor pined,
Goodwin abandoned his story and
wrote to the department:
Quit arguing. The peanuts are
harmless. THE Popular Magazine.
