An Issue Of Bonds By County
ChampiOned By Mr.. Forester
Continued from Page One


from Banks paying them exhorbi-
tant interest. / understand that the
county has debt Of about twenty
thousand dollars on which they pay
about s to 10 per cent interest-and
to meet their obligations are con-
tinually borrowing money from PEI
ter to pay Paul. Every time money
is borrowed more interest, and some
times a commission accrues.
We have got to tide oyer the
present indebtedness-for our in
come is insufficient to meet current
expenses and pay back the money
that we owe.
Then it seems to me that the only
logical thing to do is to issue bonds.
BY doing this wecan reduce the In
terest that we are paying on the
money that we are borrowing to at
least 5 per cent and perhaps 4 Per
cent. Why should this not be done
when we are borrowing the money
now at 10 per cent?
BY issuing bonds the money can
be borrowed on, long terms-thus
/ giving US time to meet it when il Is
due.
1t will be pointed out by those
that are hostile to this movement
that bonds can not beissued to pay
existing Indebtedness. But even
they will not tell you that bonds can
not be issued for the purpose OF
building roads and bridges. Andif
we issue bonds for this purpose can
we not take the money that we are
getting in from other sources and
pay our existing Indebtedness and
take the money for which we issue
bonds and use to pay the expenses
Of the county changing?

serve in the different capacities;
Miss Annie Long, president; Mrs.
+. w. Reynolds, vice-president;
Mrs. Duncan Forester, recording
secretary; Mrs. Charley Deberry,
corresponding secretary, and Mrs.

building, and it is hoped that the
work viii be worth while in the up-
building Of the activities Of the

The Dreams Ahead

What would we do in this world OF ours,
Were it not for the dreams ahead2
For thorns are mixed with the blooming
flowers,
No matter which path we tread.
And each OF us has his golden goal,
Stretching far into the yeare;
And ever he climbs with hopeful soul
With alternate smiles and tears.
That dream ahead is what holds him up
Through the storms of ceaseless fight;
When his lips are pressed to the worm
woods cup,
And clouds shut out the light
TO some it's dream OF high estate
To some it's dream Of wealth;
To some it s dream Of a truce with Fate
In constant search for health.
TO some it's dream OF home and life;
To some it's crown above;
The dreams ahead are what make each
life
The dreams-and faith-and love!

TILE HOUSEWIVES, LEAGUE

There Is a Housewives League that
is doing splendid work in New York
and other large cities. with which the
Civic League, Of Annapolis, should be
affiliated.
Mrs. Julian Heath, national presi-
dent of the Housewives League, an
nounced last night that the league is
planning to inaugurate "a countrywide
movement having for its object the
giving Of a guarantee to housekeepers
that bakeries, butcher shops. grocery
stores and all places where foodstuils
are sold are clean and wholesome and
have successfully passed inspections.
The league proposes to have signs
hung in the front windows of stores
certifying the date and result OF in
spection. This will be the stamp Of
approval of the Housewives League
and housekeepers will be urged to pa
tronize only those places where the
sign is in evidence. II is believed that
if housewife has the assurance that
a store is clean and wholesome she will
not send or make her purchases 10
places that are under suspicion. On
the other hand. the league officers be-
lieve every progressive dealer in food
atuffs will be glad of the opportunity
TO post the leagues 20. X" in the
most conspicuous position in his store,
90 that every passerby can sec it.
As soon as storekeepers wake up "a
a realization that the leagues card in
a show window means business for
them It is expected that proprietors
will make demands for the emblems.
