Edenton will beat Elizabeth City
to it in the matter of establishing
an airport and getting on the air
port map. Edenton has many citt-
zens who take pride in doing. things
for their town. Richard Dillard
Dixon will provide Edenton with a

operating to get the ground in order
and secure the necessary airport
equipment. Edenton does some
things while Elizabeth City hesi-
tates. But where in Elizabeth City
would a citizen be found with
enough civic pride and patriotism
to provide the city with ground for
an airport. If such citizen lives
in Elizabeth City this newspaper
has never seen him.

they read it in The Independent

Why Can't women get things
straight?" asked the Soda Jerker.
Whats wrong now?" asked the
Bank Clerk.
There was a buch of females in
here last night and casually asked
the oeustion whether it was fact
that Widow So-and-So had a crush
on a certain party. Today it comes
to my ears that one of those James
went right out and told it that L
had said that the Widow So-and-so
was chasing the certain party and
wanted to marry him. Now What
do you suppose makes women that
way?"
"God created man in his own
image, in the image of God created
he him: male and female created
he them" replied the Bank Clerk
But what's that got to do WIN
ito" asked the Soda Jerker, puz-
zled. ,,,.
"The first woman added little
something to the first thing she
ever tried to repeat" said the Bank
Clerk. and all the daSnterS ol
Eve have followed in the footsteps
of their common mother. It's born

that they should not eat OF the lrui,

that extra touch to it, And to this
day you will not find a woman who
can repeat a thing she has heard
without adding something to it. II
the groceryman lacks an ounce OF
weighing out full pound OF butter
for a woman. she will likely as not
swear that he cheated her out OF
five or six ounces. If the milk man
lacks an inch of filling the bottle
of milk, she will call him up on
the phone and tell him he left her
bottle that was only half full.
She doesn't mean to lie or cheat or
do anything unfair: she was born
that way and can't help it."
Where do you get all that Bible
stuff" asked the Soda Jerker, eX-
hibiting both admiration and
amazement.
81 get it from the Bible; no man
can be educated or reasonably well
informed if he doesn't read the
Bible: it is the greatest library OF
human behavior that has ever been
compiled and is a source book OF the
most exquisite poetry and word
imagery. Every man should fam
iliarize himself with this magnifl-
cient book. If more people read the
Bible for themselves instead of re-
lying upon theological bunk-shoot-
erS and pulpiteering wihpper-snap-
pers to read and interpret it for
them, there would be more sanity
more charity and more reason
among men," said the Bank Clerk.

No Need For
N. c. Couples
To Go To Va.

North Carolina's new Marriage
Banns Law doesn't amount to
very much after all. A couple en-
ters or writes the office Of the
Register of Deeds and makes
known their intentions of tieing
the knot. They file notice Of ap-
plication for marriage license and
depart. Five days later the
couple comes back and asks for
the license and if they are over
eighteen years of age they get 1t.
The new law does not require thf
Registrar to notify the parents ol
any other party or to publish thu
banns either. Just simply take the
application and sit tight for five
days and then when the couple re-
turns issue the license without any
argument. If the matrimonial in
clined couple are under 81 and over
10 anu uOll y WdllO W "oiO uAiOAA VAN
five days are up all they have to de
is to cross the hall to the office ol
the Clerk of the Superior Court ano
satisfy the Clerk that they are en-
titled to a marriage license,-and II
doesn't take much for this-th'
Clerk issues an order to the Regis
trar telling him to issue the license
and the couple get the necessar!
credentials.
Only two instances have occur
red in the local Register of Deed:

When Science
Was Too Raw
For Shilolans

Shiloh High School in Camden
County will exercise great caution
in the employment of teachers of
science and il is this newspapers
information that woman teacher
has been employed to succeed
Prof. Carter whose practical BIZ
ology outraged the sensibilities of
the rural patrons of the school
last year.
Shiloh folks are still talking about
the scandalous practices of Science
Teacher Carter who dissected cats
and dogs and birds and taught his
pupils the anatomy of the human
body by dissecting the bodies and
viscera of lower animals.
But the shock from which Shiloh
hasn't recovered yet was produced
when. it is alleged, Prof. Carter
found a female cat with kittens and
dissected it before the class, exhibit
ing the mysteries of CESSATION to his
gaping adolescent pupils. Old fash
ioned mothers and fathers of that
Purintanical neighborhood were
utterly flabbergasted. mo telling
where such durnphooliShness will
end" exclaimed one old resident OF
the neighborhod; "if the durnphool
keeps it up he will be putting a
notion in the head of some pestle-
headed boy to cut our hens up to
see how eggs are made and would
not be at all surprised to hear OF
somebody's milch cow being ripped
open by some rattle-brain wanting
to see how calves are born"
Garter impressed me as being a

Prof. Luke Stevens, superintendent
of education in Camden; but there

him and much talk about the COM
