"It is hard to teach an old dog new tricks" it Is said, and Just as difficult to keep an old riverman off the water when there's a flood. Last week Ed. Witherell, of Endeavor, the veteran pilot, made a run on the Allegheny from Hickory to President with a BinaUueet much small er, in fact, than in the halcyon days of 30 years ago but still with a full crew aboard.

In doing so, how ever, be is doubtless aware of having en countered some opposition, as well as left some disappointments. The office of County Commissioner is a difficult one to fill to the satisfaction of a majority of the people, especially if one attempts fo con scientiously perform its duties, and it is altogether probable Mr. Agnew feels that for all the emoluments and glory there are in tbe position It is not worth the effort that a re-election would entail. Tbe peo ple will be fortunate if they always suc ceed in electing as good material to tbe office of County Coaiinissioner as Len. Agnew.
