When condition are not to our
liking, we are apt to expect
elected authority to put every
thing right. We ask why they
don't enact laws to mitigate our
woes. why don't they?"
"Why don't we?" is rarely the
question. Yet half the cure is in
our hands. Theatrical circuit
managers announce that the
American theater was never SO
prosperous as now. So the III. C.
Sof L. is not preventing an I'M
sprecented indulgence in theater-
going. Labor unionists, already
better paid than many execu-
ltives, go on strike about once a
month, which indicates that
they have money enough for va
cations.
/ Perhaps national extrava-
lgance is partly to blame for our
maintenance problems.

That America stands for
nothing but loyalty is demon
strated by the election for Gov
ernor in Massachusetts, last
week. At the time of the strike
of the Boston police several
months ago, Long, the Dem
ocratic candidate, endeavored
to play the demagogue by
siding with the strikers. The
Republican candidate, Coolidge,
stood squarely against them. It
was partly on this issue that the
fight for Governor was waged.
And when the ballots were cast
it was found that Coolidge had
won by over $4,000 majority,
as compared with a majority OF
only $1,000 two years ago.
| So pleased was President Will
son with this victory for law
and order that he at once wired
Governor Coolidge his congrat-
ulations. And this is the in
teresting spectacle of a Demo
cratic President congratulatine
a Republican Governor over his
election. But this is as it should
be. In these troublous times oil
socialistic unrest there shoulC
be no party lines-our people
should stand squarely together
as AMERICANS, else we will
revert to second Russia.

Mrs. Cameron Morrison
> Died Wednesday Night.

Friends in Rockingham and
this entire section were deeply
grieved to learn of the death
Wednesday night in Charlotte of
Mrs. Cameron Morrison.
The following concerning her
death and life is clipped from the
Charlotte Observer of Nov. 18th
date:
Mrs. Cameron Morrison died
last night at els o'clock at the
Presbyterian hospital after an
acute illness of a week.
Mrs. Morrison was, before her
marriage, Miss Lottie May Tom
linson, of Durham, daughter of
Major S. F. Tomlinson and his
wife, Angela Lawrence, of Mas
sachusetts. She was educated
at Peace institute in Raleigh, and
at the Woman's college of Balti-
more. Before her marriage, she
often visited Charlotte and was
we'll known throughout the state.
In December, 1905, she was,
married to Hon. Cameron Mroris-
on, and since that time has made
her home in Charlotte.
In addition to her husband
and an eight-year old daughter,
Angela Lawrence, Mrs. Morris
on is survived by her aged far
Their, Major S. F. Tomlinson, who
has made his home here for the
past several years: a sister, Mrs.
Gilbert c. White of Durham, and
a brother, Lawrence A. Tomlin-
son, of Durham.
Mrs. Morrison was in every
sense of the word recognized as
an embodiment of the best type
of southern womanhood, making
her home her first thought. While
she was chiefly remembered by
her friends as a gracious hostess,
a loyal friend and a devoted
church worker, many soldiers
who were stationed at Camp
Greene during the late war will
remember her as captain of one
of the American Red Cross can
teen. teams, and recall her hos
pitable ministration to their needs
She will also be remembered
Throughout the state, aside from
her large and prominent social
connection, for her work as
chairman of the Fourth Liberty
Loan committee.
4 Funeral services will be held
at the residence, COS East Boule-
ward Friday mording at II o'clock
by Rev. DR.. A. A. McGeachy,
pastor of the Second Presbyte-
rian church, Of which the de-
cease was a member.

activity throughout the Carolinas
and the New England States
