But Greenville will not be troubled by this loss. It did what some of us tried unsuccessful to get Raleigh to do-it did not put the money in the regular city receipts, but used it as a separate fund for street improvements.

The era of change from the village of 1,200 in the country town to the large and hustling and growing town with it poptl lation of 5,000 has not been at- tended by any booming, wild'CSt speculation, or fr.-nzitd financier- ing by individual-; or the public. These people have made haste slowly and been certain of the solid ground before they have stepped forward. Usually a town that gets out of thi slow village life is in a nurry fur show- ing city Improvements and is tempted to ru-sh headlong into debt The fact thatlGreenville's debt up M last year was only $100,000. and that it owns its ing that which demoralised and injured the town and county. There is not now standing 1 ut two business houses on the chief business street in Green ville that were there fifteen years ago. Scores of modern and elegant houses and hundreds of neat and modern cottages show that the population has grown rapidly and that they have been well housed. Its tobacco section ha? the largest warehouses, prize houses and the like, giving evi- dence of the big tobacco business that has cCCelerats Greenville s growth. The manufacturing plants, yet few in number, are prosperous. The completion of a large veneering plant gives it the best concern of tnat kind in Eastern North Carolina, in every line of business there has been progress and marked •gain they showed wisdom m handling the dispensary profits.

The p<.'0- applications from private com-1 pie hero have faith in them- panies, ti furnish water and lights, but the business men argued that if a private company could make money furnishing water and lights, the whole peo- ple ought to enjoy these modern necessities at the lowest possible cost without any profit to middle- men. That correct principle pre- vails in every community where its town officials were too wise to give away franchises for a song. Here the management of these public utilities is admirable. A board composed of solid business n.en has control of water and lights. It is owned by the city, but the city pays the Water and Light Board for water and lights just as private consumers pay and the management knows to a cent the cost of operation and the receipts. The problem of city govern- ment is troubling every city in America and most of the larger towns in North Carolina. Here it is solved. The best men in town accept position on the town board and give the same careful and prudent management to city affairs they give to their private affairs. Therefore they have a low tax rate and good home gov- ernment, how do they do it?

No town has better transporta tion facilities. The Atlantic Coast Line and the Norfolk arid Southern Railroads gives fine mail and passenger and fneght service, and the boats on the river for heavy freight insures the advantage which competition always gives to a town. Before there was any railroad here Greenville enjoyed a large trade and its water transportation enabled it to sell cheaply. It has not lost the river and possible water transportation and if freight rates go up it can protect itself by shipping by water, a chance for self-preservation not enjoyed by inland towns. A few years ago it was easier to go to New York from Raleigh than to come here from the State's capital. A Greenville citizen would have to snatch un early breakfast in order to get to Raleigh for an early supper. Now he can eat supper at home and get to Raleigh at ten o'clock. Two daily trains on the Norfolk and Southern make the connec- tion so close that the Raleigh and Greenville folks, long sepa- rated, now feel as if they are near neighbors. More people from this place attended the State "air last Cvtob-r from tWl c .uiily thui ever before. We State School at.u to go through tha buildings. The trustees had $115,000.

It is on a bluff, or high hill over- looking the town, with level ground beyond the hiii whereon has been erected four oi the best school buildings in the whole South. There are two dormi- tories—one for boys and one for girls—and they are models in architectural beauty and in con- venience. The refectory (din- ning room and kitchen, cold storage and bakery) is a gem in beauty and perfect in arrange- ment. The adminstration build ing, for class rooms and library and auditorium that will seat 800 people, will be an imposing structure, These four buildings will cost less than $100,000—the trustees having constructed them cheaper than any like th tran meti and women, the Appalachin school for men anil women in northwestern North Carolina, and the Eastern North Carolina Teachers' Training school, this good State will provide the best facilities for preparing teachers for the public schools.

Many expressioi of delight were heard from the visitors as they noted the architectural beauty of the buildings, the fine progress that has been made on them, atd the splendid location. It was it.deed a surprise to them. Returning from the school about neon, the trustees held a meeting in the ollice of County Superintend .'lit \Y. II.

After the meeting of the trus- tees all the visitors were invited to a lunch spread in the rooms of the Carolina Club and furnished by the ladies of the End of the Century Book Club. The re- mainder .of the afternoon was devoted to showing the visitors around the town. A great many people of the county were in town to mingle with Ptut*" r,ffi- cers and visitors.

    Remarkable Cucumber.

    Saturday Mr, J. A. Tyson of this township brought a large cucumber to The R Hector ollice that was pulled from a vine in his garden tl e later part of August, and was put away to dry for seed. At the time it was

    ineof best mattresses pulled the cucumber was yellow, but ntter it was put away it turned iireen again and grew ab ml one-third larger than it was when pulled off the vine. This is no "fish story" either, as vlr. Tyson say? he has plenty of witness to prove it by.

    you should not look at it as if

    The announcement is made that

    The papers have to tell every

    time Mr. Taft plays golf, just

    like it was something. •

    It is appalling to think of 7">,-

    000 people losing their lives in

    the earthquake in Italy.

    We believe that the legisla-

    ture which meets this week will

    he a conservative body and do

    what its members think is for

    the best interest of the State. •

    The presidential electors of

    forth Carolina will meet in

    Raleigh on the 11th inat. to cast

    their votes for president. Of

    course they will all be cosl (of

    Greenville extends a cordial

    welcome to the distinguished

    May their stay be pleasant, and

    when they depart may they

    of its size in the State.

    joy than to promote a church or

    Board of Trustees, the State

    Board of Education anil other

    distinguished visitors to inspect

    the buildings fills him with pride

    THE PURE FOOD LAW.

    Secretary Wilson says: "One of the objects of the law is to inform the consumer of th? presence of certain harmful drugs in medicines." The law requires that the amount of chloro- form, opium, morphine, and other habit forming drugs be stateil on the label of each bottle. The manufacturers of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy have always claimed that their remedy did not c ntain any of these drugs, and the truth of thai Claim is now fully proven, as n• ro'Jec1ovSry his I''1 -lib.

    "Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity." Those were the first words in the Scrip- ture reading at the welcome ser- vice to the new pwslor of Memo- rial Baptist church Sunday nigh', and they never seemed to apply with more appropriateness than on this occasion. There was an outpouring of people of all de- nominations repre^eniid in the town, as well as these of no de ncmi'.ation, united in greeting a new pastor, and they made a congregation that would liil ary speaker with pride 11 face. It was an inspiring gathering it. Christian fellowship, typical of the chinged condition? thathave come to Greenville in late years, i

    Rev. J. B. Conk, f jnn.rly ol Manchester, Va.. came to Green- ville to assume th j pastorate of the Baptist church on the first of January, and this service gun- day night was arranged to give hint a welcome to his new field of labor. The service was made op of addresses am! a "elect musical program, and the large congregation took keenest inter-

    est in all. The music, which interspersed

    the addresses, was fully in keep- ing with the high record Green- ville has attained. There were special songs by Mrs. T. E. Hooker. Mrs. B. E. Parham and Mrs. VV. L. Hall and Mr. Chatlea J;.:--:- th** were heard with much
