No Time 10 Lay Down.

The past six months has seen
great changes in commercial ac.
tivities. The slump" as it has
been called generally, has touch
ed Everybody, and has m d e
grouches of many. There is much
talk about getting back to nor
NAL conditions. The term nor
NAL conditions" is vague. We do
not believe that it means similar
conditions as existed during the
part two or three years, ending
about July or August. That was
more of an insane period. Such
times could not last always. The
reverse has been complete.
Now that there has been a com.
pletc change it is time to begin
building Overland on a more
sounu basis. 1tis no time to lay
down on the job. 1t is going tc
tlke real work to build back t.
the time when all wheels will be
turned. All businesses have founC
it too easy to sell. During the
past the buyer has accepted any
thing at any price. Now this same
buyer is waiting for the rock bot
tom. When he is assured tina
the bottom haf been reached ht
will begin to buy again. Not 81
freely as before, but there will b.
a gradual picking up until reason
able times have returned. There
is lack of confidence in the buy
ing public today. This must b
cleared up by sound argumen
and facts. 1t is up to each indi
vidnal business man to help il
bringing about a restoration o
confidence. 1t is no time to la
down or be a crouch now. LIZ

observers on the hill.tops tell
us that they can now see the ro-
sy tipped fingers of the dawn
drawing aside nights sable cur.

food of brightness will awaken

the starting up of the wheels of
industry and Of the quickened
pulse of commerce as the first
signs Of the passing of the night.
Soon will follow the busy stir

HOW TO GET DESCENT PICTURES.

We are sorry to see that the
State. Federation of women's
clubs is backing a bill proposing
a state censorship of moving pic.
lures. We are sorry TO see it be.
cause we believe that the fedora.
tion will not get what it wants in
that way. 1t can force the bill
thru the Legislature, perhaps,
and have board of censors es.
tablished; but things it will cen.
sor will not be the vicious things.
There has never been state bd.
of censors established yet that
did not prove in the end utterly
asinine. We will back the pic.
ture shows of North Carolina
any day against the moving pic
ture shows of Pennsylvania for
cleanliness. All the board of cen
sors in Pennsylvania has accom-
plished is the prohibition of films
that ridicule the police.
In Kansas no picture can be
shown that exhibits a revolver, or
other death dealing instrument
Yon can devote your first reel to
killing all the actors, and your
second to pumping blood out of
the basement without any objec-
ton from the censors, just so you
do not show the weapons with
which all the butchery is accom-
plished. Could anything be more
utterly silly?
North Carplina will have the
same story to tell, and the reason
for it is very simple. If the
board is established the salaries
attached will be so small that nc
body will serve for them except
people with third-rate brains: and
if you geta board that serves for
any other reason than the salary
70 will have a board of fanatics
worse than stupid.
If the federation wants clear
picture shows it can get them
In fact, in most of the larger
towns in all that we know any
thing about-it gets them now
without aid from legislature
The process is the simplest il
the world; if a picture show .ex
hibits an indecent film have the
manager arrested. That is a bet
ter argument against the exhib
ition of the wrong sort of tllm'
than all the boards of censorship
in the world. Greensboro News
