Louis Fredlander, who directed the picture,
is an aviation enthusiast; and Sally Eilers was
one of the first Hollywood actresses to depend
upon aviation. Besides flight in this country, she

THE STATE MAKES AN EXCEPTION

Joe Jacobs is prominent young GaStonian. nc

He belongs. Unfortunately he killed a boy with
his automobile Albert Harrison, age TO- IN Lowell
and was convicted of manslaughter incident to OPP
Grating his car while in drunken condition. h'S
sentence was two years, of which he served ABOUT
three months, but now he is at liberty for the re-
mainder of the winter because the officials have
discovered that he has diabetes and should be given
special consideration If his health improves, ne
NAV be returned to custody at the end OF SIN
months TO finish his sentence.
Now, if that is the accepted state policy, there
is no argument If the state releases all OF It's diS
eased prisoners, then the case of Jacobs is no ex
ception and his parole is fair and just IN compari'
SON 10 that of other convctS in the same situation
But everybody knows that is not true The State
does not release prisoners merely because they are
sick. The State takes them into the State hoSplta

State officials are open to the charge that they
have shown favoritiSm and unjust discrimination
in the case of Jacobs and until they can show
otherwise they will be quite deserving OF the criu

| Everybody seems to be feeling so encouraged

But since the fly seems definitely to be in the

its presence there.

in wages and salaries and things to be fairly

HOW TIMES CHANGE

Over in our sister county of lredell we note that
the case of overshadowing Importance in Recorder
court Monday was that in which rural schooi
teacher was being tried for padding l2-year-oid
boy.
The testimony indicated that the punished pupil
had carved on the school desks, had torn girls
sweaterf had refused to prepare his lessons, had
run in the corridor of the building in violation OF
the rules, etc. For these acts on the part OF the
bow, the teacher administered the alleged padding
it was admitted by the school authorities.
How changed are the times when boy guilty
of any one of the alleged infdactions of the rules
of a school would not agree that ne had padding
coming to him.
Fact is, most of us can recall that instead OF
complaining to our parents on the occasion of
padding at school, our great concern was to see
that father was not informed of the punishment
for fear he would follow suit and repeat the dose

ARE YOU HONEST?

If someone should tell most of us, "Y9u are not
honest" we would resent it. Yet it would be true,
in many instances. Is your word your bond! 10
YOU do exactly what you say, or promise you will?
For example, you tell person, II will pay you
Saturday" A month or two goes by and still you
do not pay and say nothing to them about it. If
you find, after you have made the promise, that
you cannot fulfill it you should notify the person,
or firm, that you cannot pay Saturday.
We still like for people to do exactly what they
say they will do 1t is business. Business would
improve overnight if people would pay their honest
debts. The time is about here when all business
must go on cash basis. The firms, or corporations
who do strictly cash business usually are pros
porous. They do not have to worry about collect
ing bills, mailing out statements, etc.
It's sad day in a persons life, especially a
young person, when the world labels them as eds
honest" or one who fails to pay his debts. Ask
yourself and answer your own question, "Am

EXILEs SHOW CONTRAST BETWEEN
DEMOCRACIES
(By BRUCE CATION

You can usually tell good deal about
country by the kind of persons who are
obliged to leave it and the reasons for their
leaving.
So it is interesting to consider the cases
of the English-speaking worlds two most
famous exiles-Charles A. Lindbergh, who
no longer lives in the United States, ana
Edward Windsor, who no longer lives IN
England.
The latest dispatches from England say
that Lindbergh is happy there. No longer
does he get threatening and abusive let
tiers by the market basketful. He is pro-
tected from tabloidism, from Paul Pry,
and from Peeping Tom. He can go ahead
with his work, with knowledge that he
and his family are safe from danger and
from exploitation.
Now the fact that Lindbergh had to go
to England to get that sense of security
that he could not find it in his own land
is a thing to make Americans hang their
heads in shame. But it is interesting to
balance against it the fact that Edward
Windsor was driven from this same Eng
land which offers Lindbergh haven.
Furthermore, there is the additionally
interesting fact that Edward Windsor
seems to be more popular in America to-
day than in England. His picture is cheer
ed when it appears on movie screens; that
of Stanley Baldwin, who drove him out, is
booed Justify.
And when you contrast the cases far
Their, you make another discovery. The
situation which drove Lindbergh out OF
America could not have arisen in England
and the situation which drove Edward
out of England could not have arisen in
America.
These two situations were the reverse of
each other.
The Lindbergh situation was an exag-
gerated by-product of our natural, inbred
irreverance-our rowdy feeling that one
man is as good as the next, if not blamed
sight better. 1t also grew out of our demo-
cratic casualness - a casualness so exag-
gerated that it made us prefer actual in
security to the efficient regulation which
would put crime under control.
What hit Edward Windsor was the ex-
act opposite of that; an almost supernat-
ural reverence for custom, good form, and
the prophecies. His land was orderly, we'll
regulated, staid - too much so for king
who would defy the conventions.
= If little English orderliness would have
kept Linbergh in America, little Ameri
can casualness would have kept Edward il
England.
The contrast is instructive. 1t helps t.
light up the contrast between the twt
great sister democracies. .,,
One system is not necessarily better
than the other; they are just different
and, by comprehending the difference, w
can get closer to that mutual internationa
understanding for which America an'
England must constantly drive. -
