A SHAME FOR THE COMMUNITY.

Editor Legder: Il would seem, from
the appearance OF our cemetery that
the dead are soon forgotten, not by
the loved ones left behind but by those
in charge OF our cemetery. On May
S0th, 1920, Decoration Day, It was al
most impossible to see the beautiful
flowers that were spread upon the
graves of departed loved ones by low
ing hands, because OF the grass and
weeds, which, through neglect have
been permitted to grow knee-high in
the cemetery. There is no water now
nor has there ever been any in the
cemetery, and families having loved
ones buried there are compelled to
carry water from their homes to water
the flowers and shrubs which they
have placed beside the graves of their
departed. There is no toilet in the
cemetery, nor any shelter of any kind
from the elements, except the trees
and the tents of the undertakers,
/ NHlCu COsl the CSihSlSig OOhipahy
nothing The driveways are in, de-
plorable condition, and the paths
which used to be a guide for pedes-
TRANS to keep them from treading up
on the graves have grown up in tall
grass and weeds, and no matter how
careful one is when walking through
the cemetery, without roads or paths,
they will walk over and upon the
graves.
There is no chapel where families
may take their loved ones when they
are brought here from distance, but
are compelled to seek the home of
friends or take the body direct to the
grave. We Understand the Cemetery
Company are money lenders, and it
is not only a shame but disgrace
that they have let our cemetery get
into the condition it is now in. When
you go to other places the size of
Maysville the people take special de-
light in driving you through their
cemeteries, but here our gates are
locked and you are compelled to leave
your vehicle on the outside along the
road and walk through. We think it
is high time that the directors get
together and do something to better
these shameful conditions.

HALIFAX COUNTY PHYSI
CLANS MAKE STANDARD
FEES FOR PRACTICE
IN COUNTY

| he Halifax County Medical
Society as its regular meeting IL
Scotland Neck, June End, adopted
standard fee system for char
ges in the county. Many phys1-
clans claimed that the fees Of 49,

tomobiles and gasoline Of 1920

words the doctors have to pay
just as much for what they get
as anyone else and very few doe
tors have anything to sell.
Below is the list Of charge,
adopted for use by the PHYSICIANS

reasonable as possible. The ply.
sicians only want an honest living
for honest work. This will go

GRAVEL COMING IN

Several car loads of gravel have arrived for the Carlisle-Hamilton road and more is coming as rapidly as the railroad company can get it here. The work of putting this gravel on the road will be done as fast as possible.
 It is no doubt gratifying news to the good people living along this road to know that they are soon to have a hard surface road over which to come to town with their products.
 This will not only make it more convenient for people on the road, but will be a great help to all who live within a mile or two of it on either side.
 The road is twelve or fourteen miles long and will open up to one of the best trading territories adjacent to Carlisle.
 The commissioners have lost no time in constructing this road and one of the finest grades in this section has been built to receive the gravel which is now to be put on. They have worked under difficulties as the work has been done during the busiest farming season of the year, but they have lost no time only the delay in getting the gravel.
 The road traverSes some of the best farming country in the rice growing and general farming district of the prairie and will be of untold value to our people. It will make nice drive way for Sunday pleasure drives, and will no doubt be used as much or more than any other road leading out of town.
 Knowing that there will be no mud holes and rough places to cross it will be real pleasure to take your friends for drive over this road when they visit Carlisle.

Mrs. Slat- tery, as has been her custom for years-perhaps for 50 years-is with her husband and sons on a months camp hunt in White River Bottom, Arkansas county, and it was her good tuck to be permitted to bring down with her own gun the largest buck of the season.

BLUE LAWS DISLIKED BY MANY
 SENATORS
No One Willing to Introduce Them,
 Is Belief

Washington, Dec. 1.-Senator Reed Shoot of Utah put on his fighting clothes upon arriving here today on leal ming that certain reform organi- cations plan the passage of drastic Sunday laws. He announces that Ii the movement assumes serious pro- portions he will lead the fight against it with all his energy.
 Senator Shoot says he did not be- lieve it would be possible to find any senator willing to introduce the pro posed measure or sponsor it in the Senate. It is believed the measure will originate in the House, but pres ent indications are that it will have small chance of success. Senators Be- rah of Ohio, Reed of Missouri, Capper of Kansas and Ashurst of Arizona joined today in opposition in the Sem ate to the proposed "blue law legis- lation.
 .'I don't know anything of the de- tails of this proposed legislation, Senator Borah said, "but 1 am op- posed on principle to any oppressive legislation and to all measures which seek to impose further restrictions on the people. I am in favor of more liberty and want to end all this war psychology.
 "We ought to be forgetting all such foolishness as attempting to pass a Sunday law" Senator Ashurst said. "The thing is impossible"
 .'The only thing to do with such propositions is to treat them with the ridicule they deserve,n observed Sena- tor Reed.
 Senator Gapper said the farmers of his state are too busy fighting the tow cost of farm products to give much time to the laws. He said:
 We haven't much use for Sun day law out our way. We have other things on our minds that demand our attention"
 The reform organizations have es- tablished elaborate headquarters here and are preparing to carry on an ex- tensive lobby in campaigning at the capital during the coming session, Many of the skillful lobbyists of the Anti-Saloon League have forsaken that organization to take up the cause of the reform Sabbath.
 A delegation of local clergymen has asked for a hearing before the Dis trict of Columbia appropriation com mittee to present a bill applying the ''blue law restrictions to the district.
