BUY-BUT BUY WISELY

While government propaganda is

the people is all right as far as il
goes, the people will do we'll to re-

tween economy and a determination

Naturally the governments aim is the
investment of the public money in
government securities, undoubtedly
the safest in the world, but there is
a business side of spending as well
as of saving that must be taken into
consideration. The merchants of

If our people are to have the con-
venience of home town purchasing,
then the people must keep the goods
moving off the shelves of the mer-
chants. There is no loss, no waste in
home town buying because the money
Icirculates in our own territory, and
eventually gets back to the purchaser.
1t is only when money is taken out of
town that the harm is felt. Thrift
should be encouraged, but thrift does
not mean no buying. Russell Sage,
who left millions, was thrifty. He
bought his straw hats in the winter
time and his flannel underwear in the
summer time, when prices were
down, but even he bought what he
needed. Healthy home trade will dc
more than anything else to restore
sound prosperity. We are all in the

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

When, after debating the subject
for several weeks, the county COM
Imissioners decided to concentrate all
of the county's road equipment and
men in one unit for the purpose of
working the county roads, we and
many others applauded the commits
sioners for their wisdom and thought
that their action would result in
great economy and efficiency in build
| ing and repairing roads.
Perhaps in time this policy will re-
suit in economy and efficiency, but so
far We cannot see that it is any bet
ter than letting each commission
have his one or two men and handful
of equipment to work with in his dis
trict.
So far as we know there is not a
piece of road in the entire county that
is as bad as the approaches to the
charlotte harbor bridge-and even if
there is worse road, no matter how
bad it may be, it could not cast so
much discredit upon the county as
these aprOaches-where, for time at
least, cars frequently became stuck

travelable.
The county convicts and machinery
have been kept busy by the superin-
tendent and his men, and they have
done good work where they have
worked, but it seems that they have
been working where their work is
needed less urgently than on the
bridge approaches. Given few
weeks, they could soon have both
approaches in good condition.
Seven months these approaches
have been in this condition and the
retaining wall has been needing at

Reports from five states show an un-

fact is that farmers and jewellers in
