Investigations regarding the establish
ing of gardens on vacant city lots.
Many lots were found to have such
soil that the expense of preparing

would be impracticable. These lots
can be kept clean and free from
weeds and such flowers planted as do
not require good soil. The commit

THE; FAKE SALE STUNT

Don't beAaisIed by the ten foot"
circular of gain sales" but:de-
mand that yan get values when
they are so advertised. An honest
merchant backs up his statements,
and an unprincipled hawker should
be made to do so or the people
should refuse to enter his doors.
When trading, trade with the mer-
chants you know and whom you
have reasons to know that when
they say an article worth 500 will
be sold for &c, that you will get just
suchzan article Its, easy to write
or print figures and it is time the
honest merchants should be pro-
tected against that fake cheap John
sale stunt so common these days.
Don't patronize a fake, look close
and see for yourself. There arc
plenty of honest merchants in High
Point whose sales are bona-fide.
Honesty in advertising is as much
desired by this newspaper as it
should be by the public and The Re-
view is glad to say that it will not
accept fake sale advertisements if
the editor knows or has reasons to
believe they are fakes.

Beware of Wood Alcohol.

The New York Committee for the
Prevention of Blindness has begun
a crusade against makers of bay
rum and other toilet articles con-
tainlng wood alcohol Two manu-
facturers have been fined and four
more face trial. Bay rum contain
ing wood alcohol may cause blind
ness. Power-house whisky which
contains wood alcohol may cause
bliadness or death: Soft drinks con-
tanning wood alcohol may cause a
withering of the optic nerve and
consequent blindness. Workers in
large vats who are obliged 10 shellac
the inside of them become blind
from inhaliDg the fumes of the wood
alcohol contained in the shellac. The
laws are stringent regarding the
manufacture and sale Of wood alco-
hol, but unless someone makes 1t
! his business to keep watch On the
unscruI uOus manufacturer they
! will introduce this vile poison be-
cause it is cheaper. See to it that
your barber uses only the best toilet
articles, and that the ginger ale you
drink is one that does not contain
this poision. You can detect the
odor in most instances and this
should put you on your guard. 81

Etiquette of The Bible

The Bible is the best book of eti-
quette ever published, and those
who follow it's rules will have fine
manners and be welcomed in polite
society. Here are few of the rules:
Thou shall rise up, before the
hoary head and honor the face of
the old man.-Leviticus 9:32
Honor thy father and thy moth
er.-Exodus 1912.
Let your adornment be not that
outward adjoining of plating of hair
and wearing of gold or putting on of
apparel, but let it be the hidden
man of the heart in that which is
not corruptible, even the ornament
of a meek and quiet spirit.-Peter
1874.
He that keepeth his mouth keep
eth his life, but he that openeth wide
his lips shall have destruction
Proverbs 1873
A wholesome tongue is the tree
of life; but preverseness therein is a
breach in the spirit.-Proverbs 15:4
I am young and We are very old,
wherefore | was afraid and burst
not show you mine opinion.-Job
32:6.
How forcible are right words! But
what doth your arguing reprove?-
JOB 6:25
Let everything be done decently
and in order.-1 Corin,hi 14:40.
A word spoken in due season, no"
good it is!-Proverbs 1928.
"A soft answer turneth away wrath
but grievous words stir up anger
Proverbs 15:1. -:
Therefore whatsoever things ye
would that men. should do to you
do ye even so to them Matthe"

DOWN SOUTH"

After all is said and done, the
out-and-out newspaper reporter
generally does better job, when it
comes to setting down facts, than
the most competent expert. it is
because of this general recognized
truth that new series of articles
coming in The Country Gentleman
will ne OF peculiar value and inter-
est to the entire South. Barton W.
Currie, who while on the staff of the
New York World made "a reputa-
ton as one of the most accurate re-
porters in the country, recently
journeyed through the South and as
a result of that trip has written these
articles which hecalls Down South
The Era of Optimism and Oppor-
tunity." For example:
Sectional feeling has crept back
to the mourners' bench" writes Mr..
Currie, and many of the mourners
are so busy making money that they
are unconsciously becoming optim-
lists. -.--..~
The opening of the Panama
Canal and the consequent shorten
ing of trade routes will add anoth-
er spur to industrial enterprise.
The railroads Of the South are
bending all their energy to assist in
a healthy growth and direct atten-
ton tC the advantageous opportunity
for investment in the South.
The new currency law has ar
rived at the psychological moment
when expansion Of credit for both
agricultural and industrial activities
was in immediate demand"
Again: "When you can take
mulatto soil that was cropped for
cotton for fifty wears until its fer
tility became a microscopic quantity
and its wealth fell to one bale for
every four or five acres. and plo
duce on il five tons of alfalfa to the
acre you have got something IL the
Wav,of an asset that invites the at
tetatiion Of all nations. When you
can. take a sugar plantation that has
produced cane for one hundred
years, and raise record crop of rice
on it, you are performing practical
miracles that spell anything but dis
aster. There are vastly better things
in store when we get down to the
discussion of the crop of folks and
the Southern farmers cf tomurrow." "

BRIEF FILED BY MR.. DAVIS
North Carolina Merchants Demand
Equal Opportunity in Their Own
State-Attitude of Virginia.

NOIln CdIOlind McICldIltS DotildIlu
Equal Opportunity in Their Own
State-Attitude of Virginia.
Raleigh, Jan. 25-This was the
last day for the filing of briefs with
the interstate commerce commits
sion in the case of the petition of
the railroad companies and the
North Carolina corporation commits
sion for the application of the re-
duced interstate freight rates to
North Carolina points under the
special compromise between the
railroad companies and the special
season of the legislature and Chair
man Travis, of the corporation COM
mission, forwarded his brief for the
commission to Washington last
night. 1t makes printed docu-
ment of 26 pages.
The brief reviews the whole
scope of Virginia cities rate discrim-
nation against North Carolina and
the proposed reduced srates from
western points to North Carolina
that would in part relieve North
Carolina Concerning the Virginia
Cities Carolina conditions sought to
be relieved the brief makes this
pointed comment: virginia cities
merchants are, and have always
been, the nearest, most active and
aggressive competitors of North
Carolina merchants IN the North
Carolina towns for North Carolina
business. While on the! other hand
the North Carolina merchants have
no opportunity whatever to COM
pete with the Virginia. merchants
in the natural territory to Virginia
cities. This is caused by the great
inequality Of the rate. North Caro-
lima merchants do not complain of
exclusion from the Virginia terri
tory, but what they have, for years
contended for, with growing earn
estness and determination, are such
rates as will give them equal op-
portunity in their own North Caro-
lima territory with their outside Vir-
ginia competitors.
VIRGINIAS S ATTITUDE .UNTENABLE
| Much attention is given the atti-
tude of Virginia cities in interven-
ing in opposition to the proposed re-
lief to North Carolina shippers, the
contention being that the attitude Of
the Virginia cities is wholly unten.
able, the underlying purpose of the
pending adjustment being to re-
move the unjust determinations
against North Carolina in favor of
Virginia cities. ...
In discussing the Southern rail-
way rates into the state from the
west to all points in eastern Caro-
lima and AS far west as Statesville,
involved in the Intervention of
Knoxville, Tenn, against the pro-
posed North Carolina rates, tie
brief asserts that this is the most
serious opposition that has been
raised as constituting new viola
ton of the fourth section against
Knoxville as a point of origin, in
that the proposed rates from Gin
cinnati to certain North Carolina
points, notably Greensboro, would be
less than the rates from Knoxville
to these points.
The brief admits that this would
be true as to Greensboro and points
east thereof, due to the fact that
, the rates to Greensboro and similar
ly situated points from Cincinnati
are based on Virginia cities rates
which the rates from Knoxville to
Greensboro are necessarily made via
Paint Rock and Asheville.

holstering chairs, making boat or
