BALLAD ON BOOZE The following clipping from a recent editorial in the Richmond Times-Dispatch shows how much North Carolina is being praised and advertised for its good roads program News comes from Charlestown that West Virginia, to the west, throueh its Legislature called in extra session for that purpose, has voted an issue of bonds in the sum of $50,000,000 for the building of good roads. To the south, North Carolina recently issued bonds in a similar amount that it might lift itself out of the mud. To the north, Maryland, already known as a good roads state, is spending millions of dollars each year in the construction and maintenance of highways that are a joy to the traveler after crossing the boundary from the Virginia mud holes that are called roads only through courtesy. Already North Carolina is receiving advertising throughout the length and breadth of the country by reason of its pro gressive action, which i3 bring ing in new industries, fresh capital and added inhabitants. It i3 not beyond reason to believe that before it has laid a mile of road out of the newly available funds it will have received in advertising dividends a large percentage of its roads invest ment The same promises to be true of West Virginia. It has proved true of Maryland. It is true of every other state that ha3 let it be known to the world that its emergence from the mud stage has been decreed. - Lex i ngton Dispatch. EDITORIAL CORRESPONDENCE Half Holiday Halifax is filled with prohibition news, But still you can get it, any kind you choose; Especially monkey-rum and corn, But if Jackson stays on it will all soon be gone. You can buy it on the 'mountain tops Far away from all the cops, Or you can buy it on the street, Where the cods daily beat; Or you can buy it on the hill Hot! just from the still, Or you can buy it on the road Served from dipper, glass or gourd. But there's one thing prohibition will do. is Knock our State of Revenue. It has given many easy positions, Paid many large commissions, Walking around all dressed up Looking for a place to sell a quart. It has made many men law Who will have to answer to their But you can make sure of my There will be some booze as long Subscriber the highest bidder fo cash, the afore said lots and buildings in ironi ui u.c office of the Roanoke Rapids Power CoYnpanv in Roanoke Rapids, N.
