when YOU TAKE
A LAXATIVE
80. use a spoon

1t isn't what brand of laxative you
take that's so important-it's the
form. A liquid laxative can be taken
in any required amount. If only, a
little is needed, you need never take
a bit too much.
Doctors favor the easily measured
iiquid laxatives. Instead of any form
that does not encourage variation
from the fixed dose. A fixed dose may
be an overdose for you-or your
child.
Always remember this one thing
about constipation: the secret Of any
real relief is reduced dosage.
Give the bowels only as much help
as may be needed, and less help as
the need grows less. You will find DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin an excellent
aid in regulating the bowels. 1t con.
tains SIENNA and cascara natural

bilious, sluggish condition without
upset. Delightful taste, and pleasant
action. Your druggist has it..

APOLOGIES FOR OUR
SMALL EDITION

According to the instruc-
tiOns given The Skyland Post,
county taxes were to be adver-
tised during the month of May.
Carrying out these instruc-
tions, the usual time given to
printing the newspaper was
taken up with printing the
tax list when orders were re-
ceived that a new law had been
passed in Raleigh making it
legal to put off advertising
until August, September, or
October.
The second set of orders did
not reach us in time for us to
replace the printing already
done with news. We regret
that We have to send our sub
scribers a smaller paper this
week, but those who have not
yet been able to pay their
taxes will rejoice to know that
an extension of time has been
given.

HIGHSMITH PLEADS
FOR EDUCATION BEFORE
NEW RIVER AUDIENCE
Stresses Need for Practical Learning ;
Reviews History Of Education
in North Carolina

Speaking to the New River gradu-
ating class and a packed house of pa
irons and friends Of the school, DR..
J. Henry Highsmith plead Friday
night for an educational system that
would include courses in farming and
housekeeping instead of Latin, and
higher mathematics. He touched upon
adult illiteracy and declared that par
ents needed education to properly
teach and train their children. Princi-
pal Wade E. Eller announced that the
work among adult illiterates which is
being carried on by the government
will begin in earnest in that section in
September.
DR.. Highsmith reviewed the history
of education in North Carolina since
April %, 1886. The first academy was
established in Wilmington in 1850,
and Salem Academy followed in 1772.
The University Of North Carolina, he
said, is the oldest state university in
the United States. In 1866 the legis-
lature levied money for schools; in
1865, Negro education was begun,
and in 1907 the legislature appropri-
ated $45, 900 for high schools. In 1915,
public high school was made posi-
BILE in every county, and in 1921, the
first building fund was allotted by
the legislature. In 1881, the state took
over the support of the six months
school and in 1888, the state took
over the eight-month term.
DR.. Highsmith also stressed the
need for training in citizenship, char
acter, and health. He spoke against
war and expressed the opinion that
young and old should combine to pre-
vent future wars.
DR.. B. B. Daugherty concluded the
commencement exercises Saturday
night. He took up the subject of edu-
cation progress in Ashe county and
stressed the Importance Of it's further
growth.

PATMAN BONUS BILL
PASSED BY SENATE
If Not Vetoed by President Payment
to Vets Would Amount to More
Than Two Billion Dollars

In direct defiance of expressed
White House wishes, Senate hackers
of the Patman bill Wednesday smash
ed swiftly and successfully through
three roll call votes to complete con-
gressional action on the proposal to
pay theA bonus with $2,201 1874 900 in
new currency.
The final vote for the inflationary
measure was SIS to 33. Only a last
minute notice of motion to recon-
nit separated the bill from the White
House.
The ballot, which sent through I'M
altered the house-approved bill, thus
fell several votes short of the two
thirds necessary to override a presi-
Dental veto. Leaders who had threat
ened that the bill would bounce back
from the White House, promptly pre-
dicted veto would be sustained. But
advocates issued contradictory pre-
dictions.
Under the Patman bill the average
veteran who had not borrowed on his
certificates would get $1,000 immedi-
ately. The average veteran who has
borrowed would get around $497. AL
together 100000 veterans in round
numbers hold the adjusted service
certificates.
Before the final vote, senator's
turned around and listened carefully
as McAdoo, the wartime treasury
secretary, rose for one of his first
Senate speeches.
Talking in low, but clear voice, he
said, if the Vinson bill passed, it
would require bond issue of about
So, zoe, 100000. He said this would re-
quire an annual interest charge of
sec, 100000. If the bonds were per-
mitted to run 20 years, he said, the
government would pay 81 ,320, 100000
in interest and would still owe the
principal.
On the other hand, McAdoo said,
sinking fund supplied with $81, 00G,-
900 year for 20 years would wipe
out the entire issue of non-interest
bearing notes proposed in the Patman
bill.
McAdoo contended that all currency
now in existence is actually green
back money, back of which was only
the "honor and good faith" of the
American people.
ut is mere conjecture that these
notes are inflation,' he said. 81 have
been unable to find anyone to tell me
where sound money ends and infla-
ton begins"
The former treasury head contend
ed that the government had match
less credit and that the issuance of
$4,000, O00, 900 in new currency would
have no more effect than Throwing
a handful of sand on the seashore in
the hopes of affecting the incoming
tides"
When the Patman soldiers bonus
bill was passed by the Senate, Sena-
tor Bailey voted against the measure,
and Senator Reynolds was absent. It
was announced by Senator Lewis of
Illinois that, had Reynolds been pres
ent, he would have voted for the bill,
thus indicating pair for it. Reynolds
is still in the West Indies on a tour.

SHOOTS HOG FISH OUT OF TREE

Mr.. Clint Blevins comes to town
with this believe it or not that he
shot 12-inch hog fish out of a tree
last week.
The Skyland Post did not believe
it so Mr.. Blevins explained that he
shot hawk that was perched in a
tree and killed him. Just as he shot
him, the hawk dropped the large fish.
Evidently the hawk had just caught
him from the river as he was not
dead. The wing spread of the hawk
was SO inches, according to Mr..
Blevins.
