YOUR GIFT.

She will not weep,
They say of me;
And when l turn my back,
Plot how they may case my pain
Through tears.
How dull, how stupid they!
They who claim that they
Have loved thee long;
Who bid me weep
Because you die.
In the still hours
That bring your absence near
l feel you there!
In the night,
That hour when darkness stops
And light is born,
1 know you there!
When the sun rides high
Tho light of you
Shines on my soul;
/ feel your gladnese.
In the hush of storm
And d-swept cloud
l know your strength.
Why weep?
I gave you all
That earth could give.
And you are giving me
The gift of heaven.

medldtely take over Tie Otd'S
Highway Us miles in our county,
and spend from three to four
hundred dollars per mile in tax,
ing care of them while we wait
for the building of the hard sur
face road. The $50,0O0,000 men
toned in the bill does not frighten
me. 1t was put there to go as
far as possible to meet the views
of our Governor.
After a thorough investigation
| am satisfied the maximum
amount of roads which can be
built in a year is 300 or 400 miles
of hard surface, and all additional
700 miles of servicable all-the-
year roads which will be ready
for the hard surface when they
get there, which will limit the
amount which can he spent to s
or 10 million per year, ..
The Governor has surprised a
lot of the old timers by his pro-
gressive ideas, and bold pro-
nouncement of them. 1t seems
funny to me who has always
classed myself as a progressive,
that | should find myself back
pedalling on some of his propo-
sitions. His friends in Richmond
county would feel proud of him
if they could know what a study
he has made of the business of
the State. His knowledge of
them startles even those who
have been making some study
along these lines. He continues
as sassy" as ever. When he
was delivering his message to
the General Assembly the other
day and came to his road pro-
gram he looked me square in the
face when he was talking about
sinking money in mudholes, "
and | saw no sign of humor
about him.
This is getting a far way from
schools and the New School
Building. | think the election
should be called as soon as the
law allows. Overy one | have
consulted tells me that now is
the time to build. We are in a
position where we must do it.
The conditions in which our high
school children are now working
is not only injurious to their eyes
and their health, but they cannot
master their subjects. The pres
ent conditions are the faults of
nobody: they could not be avoid
ed. If they are continued next
year, somebody will have to take
the blame. Who volunteers to
assume this burden? Certainly
not |, and believe not our peo
pie.
Yours truly,

Writes An Open Letter to
Post-Dispatch Regarding
100000 Bond Issue for
High School. Discusses
Hard Surface Roads and
Speaks Of Craftsmanship
of Gov. Morrison.
EDITOR PoST-DISPATCH:

EDITOR T-DISPATCH:
The election we held last year
for tre new school building is
not satisfactory to the bond deal.
ers for the reason that the Spec
ial Act passed in 1919 was rati-
fled three days before the Mu.
nicipal Finance Act, which in
their view, repealed our Special
Act. There is a difference of
opinion on this point. The At
torney General thinks the defect
can be cured, if any defect there
be.
However, am convinced that
the bonds will bring a better
price if we hold another election
under the Municipal Finance
Act, so | am advising Mr.. Bell
accordingly.
The last election was on a
proposition of $4,000 of bonds.
am now convinced that we
shall need 100000.
Our town can afford to vote
this amount, and especially in
view of the fact thot the road bill
known as the "Doughton-C Connor
Bill", will avoid the necessity of
any bond issue in Rockingham
for an 18-foot hard surface road
on Washington street from
Homer Baldwin's to our present
pavement; from Fred Dickinson's
to the Great. Falls bridge; from
Rockingham depot to Pee Dee
No. 2 bridge, and from the Meth.
odist church to the Falling Greek
bridge.
l am mailing you a copy of the
bill and call your attention to
paragraph IA, Sec. Is. We have
put a lot ofhard work on this bill,
which will form the basis of
whatever legislation is passed bv
the Legislature.
You will notice that the bill
contemplates State Construction
and Stat Maintenance, not of the
hard surface roads only, but OF
all the State roads, of which there
are about rs miles in Richmond
County. This is the only ma.
terial point of difference between
us and the Governor, and on this
point we have had to agree to
disagree. He wants no main.
tainance of anything but the hard
surface roads and wants a special
county tax for this purpose
which would cost us, according
to the Highway c Commission, from
$25,000 to $4,000 per year anc
would require our auto license te
be paid into the State, as now
while we would get no benefits
back in eight or ten years.
Qua plan contemplates that the
Highway Commission shall i'm
