Clean-Up Week.
The mayor of Rockingham,
acting jointly with the Civics
Department of the Richmond
County Woman's Club and the
Good Fellows Club, has set aside
the last week of this month for
"Clean-Up Week"; this should
meet with the hearty approval
and cooperation of the entire
town, for surely it is needed. The
pride of the people, the charm
and beauty of the spring, and the
health of tjie community should
constitute an irresistible appeal.
Vacant back lots when filled
with trash and filth, are eyesores.
To the owners of these especial
appeal is made. Get your trash
ready for the town truck, etc. to
take off.
Along with "Clean-Up Week"
it is suggested, and is being dis
cussed, the advisability of having
a county RAT EXTERMINA
TION DAY.
The United States sends out a
man for this business and suc
cessful work of this kind has
been done in Columbia and
Greenville, S. C, and other
places.

(Political Advertising.)
I am a candidate for re-appointment
as Democratic Nominee for Solicitor
for the 13th Judicial District, and
earnestly ask the voters of Richmond
County to give me a re-nomination.
Having been appointed last Septem
ber by the Governor to this position, I
have endeavored to fulfill the duties
of the office, and I refer to all Court
Officers as to ixiv qualifications and
the manner in which I have conducted
the office.
The office of Solicitor is a very re
sponsible one, and by the appoint
ment of a Richmond County man to
this office, the Governor gave this
county one of the most important ap
pointments which he has made. For
the long number of years during which
I have been a resident of Richmond
County, 1 have always worked for the
interest of the Democratic party, and
there has never been a campaign in
which I did not take an active part.
1 have never failed to vote for any
Bond Issue for the enlargement or
betterment of the Public Schools.
I earnestly request that you give
me your vote on June 3rd and Insure
to me a re-nomination, and I promise
that the office will be conducted fair
ly and impartially, and to the best of
my ability.
