 business manager. For five years Editor Rodemeycr and MT. Parsons 1 saw that the paper was published regularly, until 1916, when Mir. Rodemeyer resigned to take the edi- torship of the Greenwich News & Graphic, where, he still holds forth in the sanctum sanctorum.
 MT. Parsons and C. H. Pease then contiu@ed as business manager and managing editor, their services ex- tending over period of about one year, when the present managing. editor assnmed, charge.
 If the founder of the News could walk into the office today, he would see many changes, some of which he could hardly understand. In his day every individual letter was picked from a case. Nigger Brown was the motive power for the press, while linotypes and electric motors were unheard of.
 The different owners and editors sought to keep up with the times and installed modern machinery as they came into office. Nigger Brown was replaced with a treadmill and the treadmill was later replaced with a water motor. Then came the cleo tric motor and the end of power troubles in the plant The old Guernsey press was replaced with a Country Campbell, then considered an excellent press and we'll it might be, for that press was in service in this office for about thirty-nine years. When tramp" printers could no longer be relied upon and the reliable ones demanded more than they could earn, the company installed a Uni type machine. This machine replaced number of hand compositors and years, until the great world war when the increased amount of work and the decreased number of print. CTS available made it necessary tc install the Model IS Linotype, now ir operation.
 After three years experience w;ti the linotype, it was found that ar up-to-date press was an absolute ne cessity. We now have a Whit,ocl = two-revolution press with attached l folder that not only simplifies th, r work, making it possible to operat, the plant with very small force S but greatly extends the range of tn g work it is possible to do here. - This in brief, is an outline of tn

 That day in June, 1871, when the printing press and the locomotive rolled into town, the former being hauled by teams from Canaan, the nearest railroad station, and arriv- ing at its destination about two hours ahead of the latter, was a great day for Salisbury. The little old bob-tailed engine, State Line" was No. 1, and will never be forgotten by those who saw it; in those days il was called a locomotive but the lat. ter-day railroader would call it g teakettle, which, as Jay Underwood once said, was about powerful enough to pull setting hen off tho nest" The tender and tank com bined were as large as q good-sizeC dry goods box and the drivers abou the size of Ford auto wheels.

EDITOR RODEMEYER {,
 TELLS OF ANCIENT PAST
Apparently Insinuates That His Memory Is Better Than
 Judge Roraback's

Editor News:
 I am f1attered by your invitation to contribute a bit of reminiscence of my "boyhood days in Canaan, to your fftieth anniversary edition, but my feelings are hurt little by the intimation that 1 am qualified to supply ancient history. Do really look so old?
 My recollections of the old town do not go back to the time "wFen Canaan Mountain was hole in the ground", but I can remember when
 Judge Roraback wore goatee---
 and that's something that he insists
 he can't remember. He was school
 teacher at the time, reading law
 while he taught, and practising the
 art of cross-eXamination on disooe-
 dient pupils and transgressors Of The
 rules, who learned to dread the
 grilling more than the trounclng that almost inevitably followed. And
 can remember, too that after he
 was admitted to the bar, van away
 from school to see him try his first
 case, the celebrated Michael Bion
 case, in which he was associated with
 the late Attorney Harry Graves of
 LitchtieId, who in his summing up,
 complimented his young col'eaguc on
 his. elodQence and styled him the
 Patrick Henry of Connecticut"
 cannot realize that time en0ugn h&s
 elapsed since then to have carried
 him two years past the age of re-
 tirement as Justice of the Sup1em Court of the State, apparently in the full vigor of his mental and physica prime and with every faculty UlurI- paired---barring his failure to re. } member that goatee.
 The most stII1endous event of m5 r "boyhood days" which may appro , priatelv be recalled just at this time
 was my indenture to the Connect @ cut Western News, in 1876. Tn @ News was only five years old then = and I believe I was about the same e Without consulting my parents r bound myself out to the then pro l. prietor, the late Joseph L.

Petersburg will make it much easier

games in Tarboro, Rocky Mount go
ing there the last of this week, and
Wilson will later have a four game
series at Tarboro.
The Tarboro directors and fans
will have a meeting tonight making
final arrangements for the taking
over Of the team. The Tarboro man
agement will fall heir to a team
that with some slight strengthening
will be a contender against any club
that they meet. The good sports in
Tarboro will put out team, too.
There is much of the same sort of
craftsmanship there as is found here
and in Rocky Mount. and when this
is true the size of the town makes
very little difference.
The Wilson management well
comes Tarboro into the league. 1t
will do no harm whatever to have
another N c. town in the League.
and it should have a tendency to
make competitio[ keener. There
are now three North Carolina towns

little closer the spirit of friendly
rivalry that has already sprung up

of the state line.

has prevented the outside world from
knowing what has really been going

TARBORO SECURES
PETERSBURG FRANCHISE

At the Virginia League meeting
held in Norfolk Saturday night the
matter of the Petersburg franchise
was discussed at length, and it was
finally decided to place the club in
some other town provided this could
be done. w. S. Moye, vice president
of the League, was given authority
as a committee of one to place the
franchise and this he has done in
the city of Tarboro.
Reports in the morning paper
state that Tarboro has already raised
$1,000 for the purpose $4,000 of
this will be used in strengthening
the team, and for incidental expen-
ses, while $4,000 will be used as a
forfeit to guarantee the finishing of
the season.

WILSON LOSES TO
NEWPORT NEWS.

Newport News, Va, Aug. l.
"Rube" Phifer pitched great ball
against the Wilson Bugs, allowing
them only two hits, both coming IN
the seventh, one a home run by
tRasty" Walters with one on and an
infield hit which Miller beat out, but
which was questionable as to UNI
pire's decision.
Phifer had the Bugs at his mercy
at all times, and struck out seven OF
them. The Builders jumped on
Hearne in the first inning when two
singles, and Mcmahon, making his
debut on the home lot, smote home
run over the left field fence.
Fans took up a collection as re-
cognition for this feat. Chisholm
starred both behind the bat and with
the willow, his triple with the bases
full accounting for the last three
runs Mcmahon and Chisholm got
three hits each in four times to the
plate.
The box score follows:

bases.
