From the days Of our childhood we
have heard Of that terrible Battle Of
Squirt--nobody killed and nobody
hurt"
The present controversy over the
licensing for the sale OF beer would be
humorous were 1t not disgusting. And
the saddest part about 1t Is that those
involved In the argument can see no
reason why they are not justified in
the whole hulabaloo.
The national congress and supreme
court have ruled that beer such as is
to be manufactured and sold Is a
beverage and not an intoxicating
spurious liquor. Yet the collector OF
internal revenue asserts n liquor
license must be obtained.
Yet watch what will happen when
he beer peddlers go into the federal
courts. the fact that beer is an in
toxicant and not beverage will of
necessity have to be proven, and If
proven, what about the 18th Amend
Inent which prohibits the manufacture
and sale Of an intoxicant?
Presupposing beer is beverage
are not coffee, tea, milk, ginger ale,
root beer, ETC., also beverage? BY what
authority could the sale in restaurants,
hotels, or cafes of coffee and tea be

Dear MIssup Editor;

Dear MissuB Editor;
Times has changed. Higher educa-
ton means n broader, fuller life"
That's what heard one o. them
education sharks say spell back, and
I read II In the papers quite some too
but I'm glad TO see that you amt one
Of em.
Me, / claim that is Just q lot o.
cheap bunk--cheap to anybody which
don't have to pay the taxes. Anyways,
/ interrogates lot O. hungry fellers
recent and far rs can see the symp-
toms pears to be exactly the same as
they was when guy was hungry fifty
years ago. More'n few Of EN- could
masticatc Latin adjectives eastern 1
can say scat, but 1t don't seem to
go to their stumlcks none whatever.
Likewise, hole In the pants seems to
have bout the same general effect as
1t done fifty year ago.
The great trouble is that there is a
lot more bull throwed around pro-
mlscuous, cause there is o lot o. more
people In the business O. THROWN bull.
Is 1t boss sense to reckon that kid
can live in thirty-dollar shack and
get his idees In hundred thousand
dollar brick school house without goin'
Bolsheeveky? And 1t amt the poor
kids fault neither
Times amt changed SO much. It's
the people that have changed, and 1t
gripes 'em to have to change back
again.
Pears to me like depression is a
time when we got to do without a lot
o things which Pa and Ma never had
and Grandpa and Grandma never
heard Of, and the sooner We make 1t
national habit, the sooner will we
get through hayin' EN-. A lot o. frills
and lace and lip stick and altar O.
roses can be pruned off of our cduca-
ton system without doin no harm to
it-facts is, the roots will be a heap
better off.

regulated II the new beer is merely
beverage and not an intoxicating
liquor why should there be the neccs-
sity OF regulating its salcp
II doesn't take much imagination
TO visualize the court battles that will
take place when attempts are made to
regulate this vital matter with its
promise Of prosperity to nation"
and happiness to those thirsty souls
to whom life has been waste during
the years they have been pleading for
light wines and beer.
Amusing2 No The real pity is that
we as nation have not yet reached
the point where we can base our as
symptoms on honesty. And yet 1t is
safe to say that a perusal of any daily
paper will convince us of the fact that
we'd rather be Americans, with all Of
our national immaturity than to be
living In any other country that might
be mentioned. But to return TO the
beer question
With this, In characteristic Ameri-
can fashion, we have allowed our per-
sonal prejudices to bias our viewpoint
to such an extent that we can see only
one side, and that side the wrong one
in the opinion of some one else.
Humorous and amusing are scarcely
the proper words. Ridiculous would
SO much better describe the situation.

Another part goes to the workman on
the Job
The workman spends his part for
the necessities OF life. The corner
grocery, the drug store, tho depart
ment store get it---and through them
II goes 10 their employees, to the farm
er and the manufacturer. Then the
circle beglns again-the money enters
new pockets, passes through other in
dustries, travels to other sections OF
the country.
The part OF the dollar going to the
store providing the supplies follows
much the same course. II pays the
stores workers. 1t pays bills. It goes
to factories to purchase new stock.
From the factory It goes to other
workmen, to related industries supply
Ing raw materials. to investors.
And, at last, the dollar comes back,
through one channel or another, TO
the original spender.
In short length OF time that dollar
has had q thousand uses. It has done
the work Of a thousand dollars.
That's the beauty Of money which is
actually circulating--it is used an in
finite number Of times, and 1t does as
much good each time.
Now is the time to obtain needed
repairs al, the lowest cost in decades.
and at the same time do your bit In
fighting depression.
Jobs are cheaper than charity--and
without the Jobs, there won't be any
thing for charity

McC nbbins Believes Federal Route
% Will Have Its Biggest Year

1.-THE heaviest traffic of tourists
bound for Florida, California, and
Mexico that has ever been witness
ed in this section of the country,
will pass through Salisbury this
winter" predicted Frank N. Nc
Cubbins of Salisbury, executive
director of the Piedmont Highway
association.
"a new road has been built from
Laredo, Texas, into Mexico, and
this is now the best route from the
north into Mexico" continued Mr..
McCubbins. "There is an especially
>adly spirit now prevailing be-
tween the two countries, and tour
lists find a warmer welcome in
Mexico than they did previously.
Some of them go to Florida and
cross to Mexico by boat, and in
either CASE the best route south to
our neighbor country is United
States No. %.
Take Southern Route
"Many travellers are learning tc
use the southern route to Califor-
ma, too, especially in winter. The
Billiards and snowstorms that some
times catch tourists in~the Rockies
are avoided on this southern ruote.'
Mr.. McCubbins said his assocla-
ton will continue its attempt te
obtain a budget fund of 100000
with which to advertise Nc: %

Up And Down The Main
Stem Fifty Years Ago
by Clyde Fnnis)

Mr.. ]. X. Culbertson, of Wood
leaf, recalls some of the boys of
days gone by and writes us as fol-
lows:
Fifty years ago beginning on the
corner of Main and Fisher SITS. on
che North side of Main were the
following business houses:
McCubbins, Beall & Julian ran
a general merchandise store and
were buyers of cotton. Next came
D. A. Atwell, hardware. Next was
that old veteran merchant, Victor
Wallace, dry goods and buyer of
furs and shipper. of roots and erbs
for the manufacture of medicines.
Next came J. M. Knox & Co., gen.
eral merchandise and country pro-
duce. Then Mock & Brown, gen.
eral merchandise and ladies apparel.
Meroney Bros. came next with gen.
eral merchandise and wet goods.
DIR. ]. H. Ennis Drug Store and
stationery and books. Jerry Brown
groceries. Then Bingham & Co.,
groceries and liquors. Smithdeal,
Taylor Bros. hardware. Then ]. w.
Ross, all kinds of ladies and gen
tlemen's furnishings.
A little personal story right here
might be Of interest to those who
knew not the ways and customs of
the old town. 1t was at a time
when Salisbury was considered a
very fine tobacco market and Mr.
Culbertson had come down from
Woodleaf in the afternoon with a
big load of the weed and as custo-
mary to put up at the hotel for
the night and. be on the market
bright and early in the morning to
! struggle for the best prices. He
arrived about shutdown and after
driving into the warehouse and
feeding and getting everything set
for the night, he with other friends

Plan For Wheat
Drive
Salisbury Chosen For Headqaarter,
For Reduction Campaign

County agents from a majority
of North Carolina counties met
here last week and selected Sails
bury as state headquarters for the
wheat adjustment campaign in this
state.
]. w. Goodman, district agent,
was placed in charge of ~headquar-
tiers.
The campaign will get under
way this week, and H. w. Hoch-
baum, federal extension worker,
who explained details of the gov
eminent plan to the agents, said
that first checks for North Caro-
lima will be available by the middle
of September.
The initial payment will be on
a basis of 20 cents per bushel.
Hochbaum said. Eight cents per
bushel will be paid next spring.
The allotment money is based on
a domestic consumption of 81 per
cent, and payments are calculated
on 1893 acreage and production.
A third payment. Hochbaum
said, may be made before the 1884
crop is seeded and the allotment
based on a wheat parity price" te
be determined by the secretary Of
agriculture.
