DOESN'T SPEAK WELL FOR CITY

It does not speak we'll for any city
to let its dead sleep in a wilderness
of weeds and trash. That part of
the city cemetery known as "old" is
an unsightly place or was
Monday when the writer visited it..
We are of the opinion that the city
has man employed at so much per
month to keep the whole cemetery
at least decent. 'Tis true certain
sums are paid annually to the keeper
of the cemetery by people to keep
their plots clean and tidy, but there
is absolutely no excuse for any plot
in the city of the dead" growing up
in weeds when a little work each
day will put the cemetery in good
shape. If the salary is not adequate
at present or help is short, a way
should be provided to show at least
a decent respect for those who once
lived among us but who now cannot
speak for themselves. Keeper Of
cemetery" the very title suggests
keeping things in order

The War Situation Today

The allied forces continue to hold
IN check the Hun and have been
able to make some notable gains.
lhe American soldier has put new
life into the allied cause and now
Fritz is being often foiled at his own
game. The Germans have utterly
failed to rout the Americans. The
enemy is believed to be preparing
for a final drive for the channel
ports and when the signal is again
given will be for the last big struggle
of the war.
The allies can't be whipped and
the American forces now coming in
rapidly will hasten victory.

The Need for a Building
Awakening

IF the city OF High Point is to Sc
cure the necessary revenue to fl
nance its various obligations and
continne to make improvements in
the way of streets, etc. there must
be more building done" said Mana
ger Murphy to the editor this week
1t is absolutely necessary that a city
expand in buildings and population
for it to grow bigger in finances.
The lumber mills, hardware men and
all concerns handling building ma
terials should urge people publicly
and privately to build, through a
united campaign. Other towns are
doing this. We should not forget
our own city while becoming pros
porous off of outside business.
For many years High Point had a
record of house a day the year
around but we have fearfully fell
behind. Right now there is de-
mand for good houses to rent and
none available How can we hope
to entice people here under these
conditions? 1t is said that house
renting is not profitable now. How
ever way could be provided by
public spirited citizens pooling their
interests or forming a stock compa
nv to build needed homes here. Ma
terials will get very little cheaper if
any for several years. Can we af-
ford to continue to sleep on such
matters?

THE sLACKER

Throughout North Carolina and the nation sentiment
toward the Stacker is crystazng and the fine finger of
scorn and contempt is searching him out.
There several varieties of slackers are some
of them:
ranks and is not.
doesn't. T.
The food slacker-he male female hog who refuses
to readust their diet as to meet the demands of
Allies for those foodsuffs which may be exported.
The financial slacker-he Individual can but does
not buy Liberty bonds and War Savings Stamps
Stacking at home blood spilled by true blue
American boys in France
Stacking in America starvation for innocent
women and children in England, France and Italy
Stacking at home is menace to the success of the
American British and French in France.
THE SLACKER'S REWARD
The intelligent, observant patriotic people of America
will not forgive Stacking.
The Stacker is marked Not only during the
war; but as the goes and the casualty lists come
he will be and more hated bv decent
citizens
After the is he will be an object of contempt
He will be without the regard of decent people in his
community. His children and his chdrens children
after him will pay biterprice for his dsoyalty-For
his failure under test to do his duty his country by
humanity.
Inexorable fate is setting him apart and he will not
escape.
