A Chain of Taxes
Editor
I have enjoyed the different
written by Y. on stock
law and Can't help but believe he is
on side of progress. I have Just
read his last article in which he re-
to voting the fence back
a chain of taxes.
I had not heard of this kind of
taxes, so I began to think what he
meant by chain of taxes and this
answer came to
If it cost twenty thousand dollars
to put the fence back and pay the
suits and right of way, as many per-
sons think, the interest on the
thousand would be twelve
at the end of the first year. If
we value the of this money like
we value the money we use to buy
a home it would double itself In about
twelve years. And so this chain of
taxes would be forty thousand
at the end of twelve years, and
in twelve years it would be
double again and that would
eighty thousand dollars and at the
end of thirty-six years it would be one
hundred and sixty thousand dollars,
that would be saved or lost to the
generation of thirty-six years to
come.
Some young men have learned this
rule and when they think about
spending five cents for a cigar or
cold drink, they say to themselves
am going to save that five cents
and put It on interest and In thirty-
six years I will have forty cents.
This rule well kept Is the way some
young men grow wealthy in old age.
you only a few days to
decide this question, whether or not

exactly the same point where they
were when first noted.
The state forester in Inspecting lo-
and catalpa groves throughout the
state, says the Indiana Farmer, has
found owners who have not removed
one part of the fork of those trees
that have formed forks below the fence
post length, believing that in years
the fork would grow up and a fence
post could be cut below the fork. This
erroneous belief is the cause of much
of the delay and neglect of pruning in
early life of street and roadside trees-
It should be remembered that the
j base of a fork or a branch of a tree
will always remain at the same dis-
I above the ground. The side
branches of some trees, such as the
elm. usually continue to grow upward,
while those of other trees, such as
the maples, incline upward when
young and as the tree grows older
tho weight of the branches gradually
brings It to the horizontal. The latter
often makes the removal of large
branches necessary, which not only
spoils tho symmetry of the tree, but
usually starts decay, which soon kills
the tree.
No street or roadside tree should be
permitted to form a fork below ten
feet and all of the side branches to the
same height should be removed so that
they will the crop less.
If this Is done the tree in time will
grow a saw log below the branches.

THE NATIONAL BANK
PATS SECOND DIVIDEND
In April the National Bank of
Greenville paid its stockholders a
semi-annual dividend of i per cent,
making per cent for the fiscal year.
This was Just before the consolidation
of that bank with the Bank Green-
ville. After the consolidation of the
two banks there was a surplus
with charged to
and fixtures. In the last few
days a further dividend of 1-2 per
cent has been paid out to the
to the National Bank stockholders.
This still leaves a good surplus and
puts the old and new stockholders,
the latter being those coming In from
the former Bank of Greenville, on
the same footing as to value of stock.
It Is also fitting to say that In the
last five and a half years, during
which time Mr. F. J. Forbes has been
cashier of the National Bank, that
the earnings of the bank have reach-
ed an amount almost equal to the cap-
ital stock

MAKES BEST
SHOWING
Not long since Tho Reflector put
out the challenge, for a town
of 5.000 imputation, Greenville is the
best building and loan town in the
Hy way of explanation we
said further, The Home Building and
Loan Association has been in ex-
seven years, has already ma-
two series, one of them in
weeks, has over shares In force,
and there were 1,200 shares in
fifteenth series just started.
By way of a call on this challenge
Mr. R. E. secretary of the
Perpetual Building and
Loan Association of Charlotte, sends
us tho last statement of that
That association is thirty
year old and has Issued sixty series.
Looking over the last twelve series
we find that the smallest number
of shares in either of them is 1,586
and the largest That is a fine
showing, but according to our

The commissioners of Craven
have increased the road tax from
fifteen to twenty cents. That road
tax is five cents higher than will be
required in Greenville to
carry bonds. Hero a levy
of fifteen cents will pay the interest
on the bonds, create a sinking fund
to pay off the bonds at maturity and
leave enough to keep up the
after they are built. Yet there are
some people who say they had
not have good roads if they have
come with a bond Issue. Guess
they had rather pay twenty cents
tax like the Craven county people
do, and do a little piece of road work
when they can, than to pay
cents for a bond issue that will bull
roads all over the township and let
them have the use of them.
The large meeting held in the
court house, Saturday, to organ-
a Greenville Township Good
Roads Association, shows that
the people are interested in the
coming election on the question
of issuing bonds to build good
roads in the township. While
the attendance was gratefully
it would have been much
larger had tho meeting been held
at a later hour in the day after
farmers in town. As it was,
the organization with
fifty-five members was a fine
start Others have since been
calling on the secretary to have
names enrolled. Every
in the township, regardless of
political affiliation, is eligible t.
membership in the good roads a-
--------o
This is the last reminder we can
give you that a meeting will be held
in the court house at noon tomorrow
to organize a Greenville Township
Good Roads Association. Every one
who signed the petition asking for
the bond election, as well as all
others who favor good roads,
attend this meeting and Join in the
work for carrying tho election In fa-
of bonds. If we get good roads
we must work for them.
The Reflector has been taking note
of the situation and If it is a judge
outlook the people of the
district arc not going to vote
in next Tuesday's election to change
the stock law to Its old bounds. They
realize the folly of such a change
and the cost, and trouble it would
cause. Many who formerly opposed
It. now realize that stock law is best
for them.
We went to hammer it under your
hat again that on Saturday, at noon,
a meeting will be held In tho court
house to organize a Greenville Town-
ship Good Roads Association to work,
for the election on the question of
issuing not exceeding bonds
to build good roads in tho township. I
It is the duty of every man in
township who favors good roads to
attend that meeting.

The State Board of

that fairs to be entitled to the

forms of gambling and indecent
shows. This is right. We never
could see why fairs should not
be conducted without the so-call-
ed side attractions that rob and
fleece the people who attend. In
the two years just past Pitt
held two fairs, at neither of
which no shows of any kind, nor
any gambling schemes were
lowed. And there were no sales
concessions, and even no horse
racing. Yet with the absence of
all these tilings, which some think
are necessary to make a fair, the
Pitt fairs were a great
success. What was accomplish-
ed here can be done anywhere
when the management goes at
right, that is have a fair and

I EFFECT OF GOOD ROADS
SOCIALLY AND FINANCIALLY
We are entering upon an age of
progress and development. The
Is grasping new Ideas and adopt-
new that look to the
broadening of our national life phys-
mentally and financially. To
keep abreast of the times and go
hand In hand with her sister states
North Carolina must utilize her re-
sources and every energy. Sure
her lagging behind will not block
the wheels of progress, but we must
realize that to keep our enterprising
young men In this state we must
offer them inducements that can be
obtained elsewhere.
As it Is with the nation and the
state, so it is with the state and the
county. The grand old of Pitt
cannot afford to Bit still and
be contented while the other counties
of the state are striving In every way
to more perfectly develop their re-
sources. We cannot expect the
young men to remain here or others
to be attracted to our midst unless
we can offer them at least a part of
what Other localities are giving.
There is nothing that adds so
much to the attractiveness of a com-
as good roads. And good
roads as much as anything else make
ruling a profitable occupation.
Social intercourse that Is so
to the happiness of human be-
especially the youth, is made
by good roads. If young
and young women are to be kept
on the farm and away from the fas-
cities, the farm and com-
must be made attractive
them. There Is no possible way of
keeping the young boys from going
to town to see their sweethearts
so why not give him a
good road that will shorten his trip
and make It easy for him Other-
wise he will begin to dread the trip
and decide to locate In town and
avoid the long and sandy drive.
To the active energetic farmer who
makes his time count, the monetary
value of good roads
First. A reduction In the cost of
hauling, by saving time, carrying
loads and reducing the wear and
tear on wagons and strain on
Second. An Increase In the value
of lands within Its zone of Influence.
Third. Increase in productive area
the making of uncultivated land
accessible.
Fourth. The substitution of the
more profitable crops for the less
profitable crops.
Fifth. The ability of the producer
to market his at a time
when prices are most favorable, In-
stead of marketing the Just
when the roads permit.
The time Is ripe for action, good
roads will benefit all classes and ail
professionals, corporations and
alike, so lets all Join the
Good Road Association and boost
a movement that never has failed to
rive progress and success.

If. A. Page. Pres. Wright said It
had been the policy of the school each
year to get as a speaker some North
Carolina man. a man who stands for
something. In this money mad age
It is well to realize that manhood
and womanhood are the greatest as-
sets of any state, county or town.
He said he felt peculiarly fortunate

Resolution Passed by the Literary
Society, Hay 1911
As a of the deep debt
of gratitude we owe to, and the sin-
love and appreciation we have
for Mr. W. H. In whose
brain the East Carolina Teachers
Training School first had It inception
and whose efforts,
zeal and rare professional spirit
created tho desire in the minds and
the hearts of others, and as a
our debt of gratitude and
sincere love and affection we have
for GOT. J. Jarvis, whose mind
once caught the significance and
people and the children of the
worth of such an Institution to the
North he loves so
whose rare gifts of organization and
leadership made It possible to bring
this school to this splendid reality,
Be It Resolved, That the Lit
Society and the Edgar Allan
Poe Literary Society think and be-
that the feeling of love and
which the school has for
Us founders, Mr. W. H. and
Gov. J. Jarvis should find ex-

Be it That the ways and

two members from the Liter-
Society, two members from the

Mr. President, Ladles and
The state of North Carolina is Just-
proud of her noble men and
men, and well may she be, for no
state in the Union can boast of a
better citizenship. In war end In
peace her soldiers and her statesmen
have always ranked with best
that our nation has produced. These
things we as North Carolinians are
not only willing but glad to admit.
In fact, so proud are we the re-
of this school decided to have
oil paintings made of two of the found
of our beloved Institution and as
a representative of the Edgar Allan
Poe Society It becomes my happy
now to present one of those
portraits to the school. Tho subject
of this portrait Is a man whose
are well known to u all and a
man whom we have all learned to
love. any eulogy that I could
offer e useless. He Is a man
who has been honored In every way
possible by our state and a man who
at one time represented our nation In
a foreign country. And after all
these had been bestowed up-
on him, he did not think It beneath his
dignity to settle In the town of Green-
ville and here spend the closing years
of his life the betterment of the
masses of the state he loves so
It duo largely to his Influence that
the East Carolina Teachers Training
School Is In existence today and that
It Is located at Greenville; and as
member of the Board of Trustees and
chairman the executive committee
he has done much toward bringing
the school up to Its present condition.

son of R. W. Lassiter, bank.-r

day morning about o'clock at his
father's country home, death being
the result of a pistol shot.
While a bullet through the right
temple must have caused Immediate
death there Is know not the slight-
est reason for any suicidal Intent and
it Is thought by many people that the
shot was fired by accident in a night-
mare. The stricken family, alone,
were with him and they know as lit-
about it as strangers. There Is
left no that Indicated any
dissatisfaction with life. It is learned
here.
Lassiter was a splendid boy
of twenty-four, a communicant of the
Episcopal church, a man of strong
mind and the youngest son of a
of our boys and one girl. He lost
his mother several weeks ago and the
family has suffered many griefs. Last
week he was at work with another
brother and health and spirits were
perfect.
He retired Saturday night In
perfect bodily and mental
condition. It is not known how his
father came to find him when he did.
but it is understood that the pistol
shot aroused the father.
The funeral services were held this
afternoon from tho Lassiter home on
the edge of town and the burial took
place In cemetery. Rev. f,

old associates undertake,
early life having been spent in your

of a bond issue for road building.

there was some opposition to move

system of working the roads was
exceedingly inadequate, the roads
were very sandy and bad at all times.
The progressive spirit Influenced the
better element of thinkers and the
of a bond was put be-
fore the voters of the township and
they voted an Issue of All
the of the Ignorant and
prejudiced were preached, but these
were explained away and
the road system was established with
results which have stood the test.
We have now all of the leading
roads to our town in good shape-

for a change to the old sys-
If a man says that the road build-
is expensive, two men answer and
but they are worth twice

me that your township cant
afford not to build better roads. If
it does not there will be regret in
the future.

A Grand Jury Is an official body,
a part of tho county's government,
acting on authority given by law, and
under oath.
Their recommendations, as you
know, should not be Ignored. To do
so is dangerous to our peace and
good order.
Therefore, it is the duty of every
good citizen of Pitt county to aid
tho County Commissioners In carry-
into effect tho persistent
of the Grand Juries. The
Commissioners desire to act for the
citizens of the county, so, If you
