the unrepentant, and TO denounce

NOTHING WORTH WHILE
COMES EASY

GOD never intended an achievement
without great effort. There is no re-
ward without great labor" These
words of President Harding are the
text for the new year in 90 schools
of New York City, as suggested in a
letter to all principals and teachers
in the two districts supervised by DIR.
Edward w. Stitt. The pupils who
stood highest in each class in these
districts received copy of the super
intendent's letter TO boys and girls.
Both letters were printed in school
shops and are examples of fine typo
graphy.

The newly formed spirit-trust is
building 10 factories at Petrograd, of
which six are practically completed
and two of them are turning out
vodka.
Since Russia decided to be wet
again, the manufacturer of vodka is

thirsty Russians have no cause to be
worried over the supply, for in ad-
dition to the stored liquor being re
leased, 100 factories are making vod-

Under the Czaristic regime Ger

sale of vodka are devoted to educate

The present regime, toe, intends to

Many Chickens at State Fair.

A. G.. Oliver, State poultry extension
agent. has gone and done it. He has
gathered together some $2.100 in
prizes for the poultry division of the
North Carolina State Fair to say moth
ing of five hundred dollars that are
offered members of the boys and girls
! poultry clubs,
That would be a sizable achieve
ment in itself; but Oliver has done
more, He has gotten more than a
thousand dollars for the special classi-
| fication that is open to all comers, and
some of the biggest and best poultry
breeders in the country have entered
exhibits for the fair. OF course, they
have an eye out for some blue ribbons
and honors, but the money is also a
real attraction.
General Manager f. " Walborn. who
! has been going to State fairs over
the country for quite while, says that
the poultry show this year will be just
about the best of any of the State
fairs, And he denies that he is trying
to string anybody for what are
known to the trade as string" fowl ex
hibitors are barred from the State
Fair. BY string" poultry shows is
understood those exhibits that the

STATE NEEDS TO

BOND ISSUE WOULD PROVIDE
SAYS There Isn't a Corporation in the
State That Has No Capital

"The State is the only corporation
| know of operating without capital,
and | can't see why it wouldn't be
good idea for us to borrow about five
million dollars and provide sinking
fund to retire the debt" declared Sec
retary of State w n. Everett, who
has been thinking a good deal about
financing the commonwealth here of
late.
I'VE have depended on current rev.
the colony was established two hun
dred years ago-borrowing in antici-
patton OF revenues. and never being
in very good shape financially. l be
lieve We ought to have an operating
capital of at least five million dollars
ing so much money"
There isn't a corporation in the
State that has no capital stock, Mr.,
Everett points out. Nobody going into
business will depend entirely on his
income to finance his business. and II
OuRuI 10 ne lllt same WIN puDLlC buo-
mess The State ought to have some
capital to go on. and a bond issue
that could he liquidated in few
years would provide a revolving capt
tai
In the days before the income tax
for State revenues, the income period
was distributed pretty well over the
entire year and it was not usual tha,
any great sum of money had to be
borrowed. But since the State no
longer levies a property tax. the in
come period is scarcely six weeks in
length and the rest of the year the
State must borrow in anticipation OF
revenues.
Bonds might be. sold for a small
rate OF interest. which would Offset
the larger interest rate that is re-
quired for small borrowings, over a
period of ten months He has not
yet arrived at the point of advocacy
of the matter as legislative policy.
hut he does think that it might work
to the advantage of the State to have
some capital to do business on.

Condemn Old Trinity Building.

Old Trinity College. in which q
State high school has been maintained
for some years at Old Trinity, Ran
dolph county, has been condemned by
Special Agent Brockwell, of the State
Insurance Department, after brief in
specton of the building by him, Ac-
cording to his posted notice, the lower
floor of the building can be used but
none of the upper floors, which in
cludes the two big auditorums. until
the defects are remedied.
1t is stated that the west wall OF
the building is out of plumb and pos
sibly dangerous, but the main defect
noted was that there are not sufficient
means of egress from the upper floors.
though there are three broad stair
ways leading downward from the main
auditorium which is on the second
floor.
The action of the insurance depart
ments agent has caused consterna.
ton in the community in view of the
fact that the school, with IS teachers
is scheduled to open for the fall term
September II, and the lower floor of
the building is sufficient for not more
than half of the school. 1t is probable
that some adjacent house will be used
for the other grades.
The main problem developed is that
when the building ceases to be used
for school purposes. it is said, the en-.
tire property, including about 15 acres
of land, will revert to the heirs OF
James Leach, who originally granted
the land to Trinity College in trust for
the maintenance of a school, the prop
erty having been sold by Trinity Col
Iege five years ago to the Randolph
county board of education.
There is much criticism of the con
demnation proceedings just before the
opening of the school, but it is claim ed
| that the whole matter can be remedied
| by prompt and proper action of the
school authorities in remedying the
! defects.
