A TONIC Laxative

CONSTIPATION, with the annoy.
ing Symptoms that usually come
with it, cuts down organic force
and disturbs normal health and
well-being. A thorough cleansing
of the digestive tract is of great
assistance in the removal of sick
ening constipation symptoms.
When excessive accumulated
waste matter disturbs and strains
the muscles of the large intestines,
rendering them temporarily un-
able to perform their wave-like
evacuating movements, Thedford's
Black-Draught is useful in stimu-
lating them to activity, which,
again started, should continue
regularly until some future dis
turbance interferes. In this way,
Thedford's Black-Draught is one
Of the TONIC laxatives, tending,
as it does, to establish a regular
habit of evacuation.

Citizenship
BY N NAPIER, JR.
Rocky Mount, N. c.

Citizenship, as referred to in the
Constitution of the United States,
considers the individual as a member
of the nation. Any person born or
naturalized in a country is a citizen
of that country. A citizen owes his al
legiece to his government and is en-
titled to its protection. Citizenship in
a naion is a thing to be cherished.
When Rome ruled the world, there
was no greater honor than to be a Ro-
man citizen. In Ancient Greece, the
citizen of Athens had to take an oath
promising never to bring disgrace to
his city by any act of dishonesty OF
cowardice, but to strive to make it
greater, better and more beautiful
than it was transmitted to him.
Today, as in ancient times, Citi-
zenship is still a cherished honor, but
the duties of citizens have increased
twofold. A good citizen is judged by
his attitude toward others and the ser
vice he renders to his fellowmen. First
of all, a good citizen must be fair
minded. He should not be prejudiced
Or unfair in his dealings with other
people. He should consider both sides
of a question and draw honest con-
illusions.
A good citizen should be tolerant.
He recognizes the right of other peo-
pie to have their own opinions, ideas
and beliefs. He upholds the privilege
of freedom of speech and of the press.
A good citizen is patriotic. He is
willing to give his time, money and
effort in the service of his Country
for the realization of the best ideals.
A good citizen is loyal. He is loyal
to his Country, to his superiors, to his
c~ountrymen and to all to whom 10y
atty is due.
A good citizen is considerate of ev-
eryone. He helps all people who are
crippled, homeless, unemployed, or
less fortunate than he.
A good citizen is clean. He stands
for clean sports, clean recreation, and
clean habits. He believes in a clean
mind in a clean body and he travels
with a clean crowd.
A good citizen is trustworthy. He
is honest and will not betray anyone S
trust. His word is the only collateral
needed.
A good citizen is Industrious. He
works diligently for the good of his
community and of his family. He is
public-spirited and cooperates in any
action to improve living conditions of
his friends and neighbors.
A good citizen is reverent. He at
tends church regularly and helps the
church financially.
Washington, the truly great Ameri-
can, possessed all of these qualities tc
a marked degree. He is the personifi.
cation of the ideal American citizen.

State Dairymen To Meet Here
Thieves Loot Two Rowan Churches

The American ideal of federation
has been set forth by Theodore Roose-
welt in the following quotation: 1--WE
Americans can only do our allotted
task we'll if we face it steadily and
bravely, seeing but not fearing the
dangers. Above all, we must stand
shoulder to shoulder, not asking as to
the ancestry or creed of our comrades,
but only demanding that they be in
truth Americans, and that we all work
together, heart, hand, and head, for
the honor and the greatness of our
common country"
Our American ideals of good citi-
zenship are a part of our heritage as
citizens. They have come to us as a
result of the sincere efforts Of our
fathers and forefathers. They have
been developed through the unselfish
service and devotion of men and wo-
men in all periods of our history. They
are the principles that actuate all Wi
citizens at their best.
Another inherited ideal is the re-
spect for law and authority. Every
American, every lover of Liberty, ev-
cry well-wisher to his posterity should
swear by the blood of the Revolution
never to violate in the least particular
the laws of the country and never to
tolerate their violation by others. As
the patriots of '76 pledged to support
the Declaration of independence, SO
to the support of the Constitution and
laws let every American Citizen pledge
his life, his liberty, and his sacred hon
or. In promoting the obedience to law,
Washington once said: 1.-The name
America which belongs to citizens in
their national capacity, must always
the just pride of patriotism. Re-
spect for the authority of their gov
eminent, compliance with its laws and
acquiescence in its measures, are du-
ties enjoined by the fundamental max
inns of rue liberty.
The home is where one first prac-
tees and tests his citizenship. 1t is
the center of all that is finest in the
life of u people. 1t is in the home
hat children learn their first lessons
in obedience, respect for the rights of
others, cooperation, friendliness, reli-
ability and sympathy. 1t is in the home
hat children get their first instruc-
ton in American ideals, traditions,
and manner; If a child de-
habits of obedience, respect for
others rights, and the other social and
virtues, then he will find it easy
to meet the requirements of good Cit
izenship.
Frequently one is asked, "What
makes a good citizen?" The answer it:
A good citizen is loyal to his country
and nxforms efficiently and we'll his
various duties. He takes an active part
in the affairs of his community. He
cooperates with its other members in
making it a desirable place in which to
He seeks to inform himself con-
corning its affairs and is willing to
give freely of his time and money to
advance its interests. In preparing for
his duties the good citizen seeks to be-
come we'll informed concerning the
not only of his community,
but of his state and nation as we'll.
