"BoONDOGGLING"

Peculiar conditions, customs, and habits require
peculiar descriptive terms. Thus new words come
into use. Who concocts them doesn't matter. They
soon become generally understood and that counts
With government distribution of relief in vari-
Gus ways, "boondoggling' came into use. The word
is formed of two words-"boon," gift or benc-
fit, and dog" verb, meaning to follow as in

The recent legislature, in ast-minute scramble
to lift the burlington lid, passed laws providing
for the legalization of liquor in II counties-pro-
viding the people of those counties so desired.
Naturally, Tar Heel citizens would like to know
whether or not the special legislation is consttu-

Consequently, suit was started and an appeal
taken to the high tribunal with the sole purpose of
getting an opinion to the validity of the county
liquor laws as quickly as possible,
The whole state waited patiently knowing full
well that YOU can't and shouldn't hurry the justices
when they have weighty question of law to pass
upon.
Imagine the general surprise when the justices
hand down an opinion which soemnly advises the
public after all of this suspense, that the question
of constitutonality of the new legalization laws
hasn't been properly presented to enable them to
consider it.

HAIL TO THE SYMBOL OF A
FOOLISH ERA!
(Bv BRUCE CATTON)

The return of prodigal son is always a
touching sight. Even when the prodlgal
has been reduced, not to the husks that the
swine did eat, but to the daintler fare OF
swank European hotels, it moves the heart
to see him drawing up his chair once more
at the parental table. And so everybody
must have been deeply moved to see JIM
my Walker return to New York.
- New York gave him a welcome, OF
course. Whistles, blew, people leaned out
of windows, crowds cheered-there was
nothing missing except a get-together on
the steps of the city hall, and last linger-
ing remnant of good taste forbade that.
1t would be foolish to say that New York
has gained anything by dapper Jimmy's
return; but it would be equally foolish for
the good people of the country to grow
indignant over the fact that he did get a
welcome.
After all, this man Walker is a useful
sort of person. That is, he is a symbol OF
the things that were wrong with us back
in the gay days of the Boom, and if he can
only keep moving about in our midst he
may save us from the folly of going back
to those days.
For Walker, after all, was nothing more
, or less than the incarnation of the good
! time Charley. He was triple-distilled

there was only one thing wrong with him
; he was the last man on earth who ought tt

Being mayor of New York is one of the
most tremendous jobs that any politician
on earth can have. From the point of view
of money spent and people affected, it is q
bigger job than the premiership of many

In any halfway intelligent social Or

amount of pains to fill it with man who

MONTGOMERY COUNTYS LEADING RURAL
NEWSPAPER WAS LAUNCHED AT ROCKVILLE
IN AUGUST, 1855, BY MATTHEW FIELD
Dairy Industry
Leading Activity
In Upper County
Prize Herds OF Cattle Roam
Montgomery Meadows; Milk
Output Large

While the largest growth of Mont
gomery County as far as population is
concerned necessarily lies in the SUBJ
burban sections, the rural county is
not without it's attractions for the
residents of Washington City and 9th
er urban communities. The early set
tiers were essentially an agricultural
people. Their likes and dislikes arose
from close communion with the soil.
They came mainly from that English,
German and Scotch-Irish ancestry
which has ever chung to Mother Earth
for subsistence and vigor.
The soil Of Montgomery varies. But
it is naturally fertile and productive.
Of recent years the main occupation
Of the farmers is dairying. The rolling
land and grassy meadows explain this
fact. It is easily understood, when the
subject is analysed, why Montgomery
County produces annually over 7,000,-
900 gallons of milk. The revenue from
this huge output is reckoned at about
S1,800,000. The sale of surplus stock
will account for nearly another mil
lion.
Montgomery County is proud of it's
dairy herds and feeder stock. The
breeding of pure bred &lairy cattle is
taking hold in every section. Hol-
stems, Jerseys and Guernseys FREEDOM
mate. Prizes galore have been captur-
led by breeders in shows throughout
the State and Nation.
No small credit can be given the A.
Fl Clubs for this development in the
dairy and withdrawing industry.
Shorthorns and Aberdeen Angus are
produced as beef cattle in large
quantities.
Sheep and hog raising is popular in
many sections, but cattle leads the list
of agricultural pursuits in nearly
every district.
In addition to the work done by the
All Clubs, the county Oranges and
the Farm Bureau have been very ac-
tive and far-seeing.

Prize Percheron Now
In Montgomery County

The widespread interest in draft
horses which is prevailing throughout
the country, has brought into Mont
gomery county, a purebred Percheron
stallion of royal breeding, purchased
by Charles H. Davis of Charline
Manor, Beallsville, from C. H. Arnold
Of Lucketts, Va.
The stallion is Loudoun Pride, a
black yearling sired by Laird of
Woodside, son of the famous Laet,
premier sire Of the breed for five diff
ferent years, and is out of a mare
which also traces to Laet and to the
celebrated Etudiant, one of the most
colorful stations in Percheron history.
According to the records Of the Per-
cheron Horse Association Of America
at Chicago, sales of purebred Per-
cherons have increased 80 per cent
during the first nine months of the
fiscal year as compared with the same
period Of year ago, and registrations
Of purebred colts are 107 per cent
ahead for the same period.
