live the harm done by the agita-
ton more than offset the compar-
atively small amount Of cotton
taken off the market by this
movement. If somebody had not
already prevented us in the pre-
misses, we would be strongly in
clined to start a Sell a Bale
movement. Those people who
hold cotton and owe money are
doing themselves harm and their
creditors great injury. tits up
to the farmer and to other citizens
of the south as well, to make the
best Of a bad situation, pocket
their losses and be guided next
year by the misfortunes of this.
Of course. a farmer who has
settled his obligations, has every
right to hold his cotton as long
as he pleases. Whether such a
policy will be profitable or not is
open to doubt.

mark up trains.
We also think that the present
waiting rooms could survive a
great dealmore attention in the
way of scrubbing and cleaning
than is vouchsafed to them. A
general clean up would render
Roanoke Junction almost unre-
cognizable to any but our oldest
inhabitants.
Such a service, we feel sure,
could be rendered without very
great outlay of money and it is
this service which the people Of
this community should demand.
That the Seaboard should refuse
to grant this service willingly is
a striking indication of their gem
eral attitude. A competitive
business run along such lines
would have to go into bankrupt
cy in a remarkably short time.
We would like to hear from the
Seaboard officials along these
lines.

The First National Bank

The Federal Reserve Banks
opened their doors for business
on last Monday, November l6,
the which reminds us that Roa-
noke Rapids has the only bank
in Halifax County which is a
member of a FEEDER Il Reserve
Bank. The First National
Bank of Roanoke Rapids
is a member of the Federal
Reserve Bank for this District,
which is locatedin Richmond, Va.
1t is the only member bank in
this county andis the only Nation
Bank in the county.
The First National Bank has
weathered the war scare and the
business depression incidental
thereto in fine style, as shown
by its statement recently publish
ed. 1t is a strong. financial in
stitution thoroughly capable of
growing to meet the ever expand
ing needs of Roanoke Rapids
business and now that it has be-
come connected up and affiliated
with the Federal Reserve centers
of the United States Government,
it can unquestionably offer even
greater security, if that be pos
sible, and undoubtedly greater
Accommodations to its patrons.

The Seaboard Again

It has been intimated touS that
the Seaboard Air Line Railway
officials feel hurt over our edi-
torial Of some weeks back, said
editorial being anent and fore
ninst, also against, the Seaboard S
chivalrous treatment of the pas
senger public at this point.
This information does not come
as a genuine surprise to us = we
suspected that the suggestion Of
any change in the Seaboard's
service here, which would call for
any additional expenditure,
would wound them deeply.
We narbor no i'll will toward
the Seaboard, except the very
natural resentment caused by
their policy at this point. Our
article was prompted, not by
malice, but solely in the hope Of
creating enough sentiment in this
community to eliminate a condi-
ton of affairs at Roanoke June
ton which is a positive menace
to the health of the Seaboard' S
patrons and a shame and a dis
grace to this community.
The Seaboard has misunder-
stood our article and has taken it
for granted that we were after a
new passenger station. This is
simply a case of begging the
question. A new passenger
station with the present service
would be very little if any better
than the present building.
Our article was not meant as a
demand for a new passenger
station, and we cannot see any
reasonable grounds for its having
been so construed. What we
criticised was the service and if
we were unjust on that point, we
certainly must have erred on the
side of leniency.
We claim that the volume of
business here justifes better
service and we believe what we
asked for is warranted by good
business principles and demand
ed by the commonest dictates of
We believe if the
Seaboard is susceptible to none

If this community should get to-
