IF WASHINGTON CAME BACK

(By w. H. DugdaIe)
Do you think for a moment that you coul1
conceive,
What people would say or might do;
If Washington happened to come back to
life:
And sit in his Mt. Vernon pew.
No doubt he would notice what changes
were made;
And some wonderful things he would see,
To watch his expression and see his sur
prise;
What a queer looking sight it would be.
fhe got on train and would visit New
York,
How long do you think he would stay;
If he got on the Bowery or old Bowling
Green, or went for a stroll on Broad
The places and landmarks he knew are all
gone;
Not a man would he know on this shore,
He certainly never could tell where he was
or if he ever had been there before.
If he went to she White House to visit a
friend,
He. of course would pass in on his name;
It's always a passport, wherever you 60,
If man has both honor and fame;
NO trace Vi liIC OoyS WHICH, lC SoI III SAiS
chair,
At the white House today can be seen;
The only reminder ned get of the past,
Are the trees and the grass just as green.
Now what do you think he would say of
the war?
Do YOU think he would sanction the strife,
He always was strong for protection and
peace;
And placed a great value on life,
He knew what it was to have war on his
hands;
He tried it on land and on sea,
He studied conditions and done Well his
part;
And that's why this country is free.
Washington ever came back to this
sphere,
And see what great progress we've made;
If he saw what improvements were made
since his time,
In science, in commerce and trade;
He surely would wond.r how these things
could be,
How the limited stays on the track;
No doubt he would rather remain where he
is,
But don't worry, for George won't come back.

MATTOCKS BIG CASH SYSTEM
SALE

In a talk with Mr.. Clarence Mat
tocks this week he is very much
pleased with the sale being conduct
ed at his store and which continues
until Oct. 18th. The cash system
is the only satisfactory way of doing
business says Mr. Mattocks. 1t gives
the merchant the ready money, en-
ables him to buy cheaper and of
course the patron saves good money
by paying cash. Firms all over the
country are adopting the cash sys-
tenn and MIR. Mattocks is more than
pleased with the plan already which
ordinarily saves the retail buyer
from 10 to Is per cent andat such a

JOHN WADE SENTENCED FOR
ONE YEAR TERM

John Wade, the High Point white
man, who was captured a short time
ago by posse of sheriff's deputies
on the Greensboro-High Point road
with an automobile pretty well
stocked with liquor, was arraigned
in Superior court Friday on the
charge of having whiskey in his pos
session for the purpose of sale, and
entered a plea of guilty. He was
sentenced by Judge Shaw to serve
a term of IL months on the county
r0ads.
Wade has had the reputation for
a number of years of being one of
the county's most notorious boot
legeers, and his recent operations
gave the officers of the law no little
trouble. Finally they secured a
good tip on him, to the effect that
he would be at a certain point on the
High Point road one night with a
quantity of the contraband for the
purpose of distributing it to his
patrons The officers weresot- ian6
when he put in an appearance. and
he was caught red handed while dis
tributing the goods to number of
men who had appeared simultane-
ously. At the preliminary hearing
he was held to Superior court under
ST 900 bail, and yesterdays sentence
will relieve the county of his indivi-
dual traffic in wet goods for quite a
spell.
