02-February-Mocksville EnterprisePniTR 8 THE MOCKSVILLE ENTEUPIUSE. MOCKSVILLE, N С Thvivstlivy, January 20, 1928 ■ SaysU^ W ORKIES I If we will carefully take 'stock of our worrimeiits wc will find I that most of thorn .are about things that do not matter. For a'caj)- | tiou that wouJd ¡be suitable at the head of the list of rules I would ! suggest, “What Of It?" , I I suppose I had the best mother in the world. She is entitled to all of my respect and esteem because she putiently put up with me 'all through my lohildhood and cared for me until t)ic day of her death. I can jremem'ber, however, iihat wlien I went awrty from home In my younger daya she was always solicitous that I should . wear cle«n underweair and stockings because she said that if there ' ivag to ibe a train wreck .and my 'body was foun’d, what would people tninkdf they found out I had on dirty underwear, as though I should care «'bout .t)he state ol my underwear when 1 was a corpse. Much of the oare .and trouble that mothers take is of the Martha kind; for MartJw was “carefu] and troubled about my things.” Suppose the children do litter ‘up the floor and pick the flowers 'in the garden and tramp into the house with muddy feet. Anybody wiho knows children expects that and if they don't know children they are out of ludk. . . • It might be all right to see that your boys are washed behind the ears and that their finger niiils are clean, but you should remem ber that while-these things should not be left undone thor<? are some more important thin'gs.. It is important, for instance, that your children should «lwiiys_ think of you pleasantly and ’gratefully. Your • i./tociicrirfoi'.ypur son counts more with him than your solicitude for his nppcaraiioo./ It is Sveil that the dandruff,is'brushed oft your husbnud’a. coat collar and that his tie is right and his boota are polished, but if you ■do^notiiing else for him but call nttonWon to these peccadillos 'bj' and by the idea will seep into his head that you are nagging. What he wants most of all is to keep his rlovo and esteem for you and you ought to work at making yourself worthy of tliat much more than to work at'how h6: will look to other people. I do not moan to underrate the little attentions that should bfr bestowed upon those we iove, but I emphasize thé fact that these ^ittle things axe of small importance compai'ed with the greater mat- ... tsrs'of life.'On/one occasion It was said by a wise man that the Pharisees ®ai(l tithes of mint, anise and cumin, ibut, ncglectttl the greater mat ters of the law. So we sometimes make tho mistake of looking for flecks of dust wihen we^ should be admiring the landscape. It is all a matter of proportion. The principal thireg to learn in living is how to value things, how to be particular about the es* . aentinls and give small heed to-the non-essentials. A boiy recently turned up at Catnjina Island after Jiaving been lost for several days. His mother broke down and wept. "He’s safe,” some ono remarked. "I know," sobbtVd the mother, "but he has a dirty shirt on riglit ihei'e in front of all of these people.” GIANNINI GIVES $1,500,000 TO AID AGRICULTURE SOLICICTOR’S CAJi STOLEN ------— - .

Not only has Mrs. Allen be lieved 'her son dead, but pi'ior to his enlistment in Birmingham, when ho went to the Mexican bor der vt’ith tho Fourth Alabama In fantry, sho had not seen him for many years. Her son left home ,26 years ago when but 'a little chap, S)ie lost ti'iice of him.until sue received notice that he was in Franco with the Rainbow di vision. When the war was over, as the soldiers were returning to the United States, she was informed that her boy was dead in France.. Many, attempts to locate his bur ial place were made, but suffici ent information as to place of en listment could not .be given the War Department, and so, conse quently, nothing definite was heard. Last December, relating hor story to Mrs, James Maddox, member of the American Legion Auxiliary, a new ofl’ort was begun to locate the boy. The adjutant goneral’s department found his name ainon'g thoso who enlisted at Birmingham, followed his ser vice in France land then located him discharged and now living “somewhere in Texas.” Mrs. Alien, tho mother of Eu gene, Benge, her returning son, had remarried again years ago,, and the boy believed she was dead. He, too, had made vain efforts to locate her, her name j having been changed. Jlowever, the legioii auviliary sought the aid of the Veterans’ Bureau and now the young man, a veteran of tho World W ar and employed by the government in Texas, is com- infe home. This луеек he called his mother over long distance telephone 'and told her he was coming horne. Ono thousand miles away, and a voice she had not heard in 26 years, yet the mother'recognized it and joy ously fvwaits his return.

Ropte No, 90 from Mocksville,to County Line is already under contract; the other end, from Mocksville to Yadkin River will be taken care of by the Hi'ghway Commission as a matter of course since this artery is already included in the statewide program for a short route from Eastern Carolina to the miouintainii, Wlhni we need and 'What tho Lions Club has em phasized is a hard surfaced high way from Salisbury to Statesville via Mocksvillo, and we are hoping that such an achievement will bo , declared a certainty as soon as I the Commission lots its next seri es of contracts, j At the meeting of the Lions ■Club latit Friday night a special.

A combinatioin of Democrats and Western Republicans sent the measure to the House by a \o\^ of 53 to 31 after rejecting by over whelming votes a- long series of amendments put forward in a last minute attack by those who -con tended the measure would estab lish a policy of permanent Gov ernment ownership a'nd operation of the merchant fleet.

Route No.. 80 is really a ‘.‘feed er” to the county and we, as citi- zeins of tho county seat, should do all in our power to see that tho Statò Highway Commission uses .such funds as may be avail able to tho building of such high ways as ma'y 'be most needed for the common good of us all. Route No. 90 from Mocksville to County Line is already under contract; the other end, from Mocksville to Yadkin River, will be taken care of by tho Highway Commission as a matter of course since this artery is already included in tho statewide program for ii short route from Eastern Carolina to the miouintains. Wlhaf wo need and what tho Lions Club has em phasized is a hard surfaced high way from Salisbury to Statesville via,Mocksville, and, wo are hoping that such an achiovcmont will bo declared a certainty as soon as tho Commission lets Its next seri es of contracts.

At 9 o’clock yesterday moi'n- ing employees of the J. A. Baker Packing Company in tho River side Section started to execute a black steer destinod to be turned into beefsteak. The execution took-three hours. For some reason or 'another the steer objected, jumping the slaughter pen fence and ran wild. Sweeping along the Southern Riailway right-of-way througih tho bottom lands /between the River side section and Biltmoro, tho steer scattered workmen and ped- eatralns right and left. ¡More than a dozen persons took up tho ch'aao of tho steer..

Raleigh, Feb. 1.— In tho cotton, 'peanut and tobacco ,sections of North Carolina repeated failures with .piiaturos have .resulted be cause commercial seed mixtures poorly adapted to conditions have been planted. Especially in cer- I tain sections of eastern Carolina i has this 'been the case. Some of the mi.xtures used 'hiave contained grasses and elovevs well adapted ! to piedmont Carolina but not at all suited to the sandy and sandy loam soils of the oast. B^it County Agent E. P. Gul- I ledge, o f,Northampton county has found a way to overcome this dif ficulty. . In 1926, he locatcd 12 I good farmers who agreed to plant ' pasture demonstrations. These ' ranged in area from one to, 25 'acres and. a mixture of carpet grass, Dallis gnaas and lespedeza clover was tried. In spite of an unfavorable .season, a splendid stand of grasaes and clovers was secured. In twio instances, the pasture were over-graned and it wins necessary to reseed; but, .as a result of the returns secured on tho other ten demonstrations, seventy-five other farmers plant ed pastures in this county in 1927. The.?e (pastures were recently inspected by S. J. Kirby, pasture specialist at State College, who reports that with the exception, of two, good stands wore secured. Considerable grazing has been ob tained throughout the year and the owners are well rpleased. There has been little winter-kill ing and the pastures appear to bo definitely established. Indications are that additional land will be seeded to pastures in this section this coming, spring nnd the acreage will be more than doubled. With the coming of these ' pastured, tho land-ownors are now thinking of increasing their live^itock 'holdings.: Inter est is keen in dairying and now with, pastures as a foundation, a number of improved siros brought into the county, the out look for livestock farming is very good indeed.

Attend This Sale And Save Money HENDRIX fState^s Good Roads System Means Millions Every Year Rialeigh, Jim . 28.— About 99 millign dollar.s annually is the op erating saving brought about by the North Carolina good roads to the ovvners of automobiles, esti mates of the department of con servation and development show in its publication, "North Caro lina Taxes and Debts,” which is. scheduled to come from the press shortly. ' This is but one of a number of conclusions that is made in the ipublioatlon, which was com merce and industry in analyzing the taxes and debt system of t'he state. ' "The state of North Carolina has,” says the publication, "ac cording to its balance sheet, $151, 556,672 worth of state highways. Where did they come from and who is paying for them? "The passen'ger car, auto-truck and bus of the state are carry ing their full (highway burden of this ‘Good Roads State.’ Not a penny for the program of con struction, reconstruction, main tenance, or finance comes out of the general taxes of tho state as the interest and amortization— or ‘partial puymeirf— as well as construction, maintenance and executive expenses are 'all paid irom the yearly auto license fees and gasoline tax. “Also, when each motorist rea lizes how much time, gas, repair and replacement on Jiis car is saved by the state’s got>d roads, he knows that he is not penaliz ed for tihe outlay but gains-a sub stantial sum over his auto ‘taxes.’ This saving, in the aggregate, «mounts to millions of dollars to the stdte’s citizens to say nothing of millions more brought into the state 'by interstate motor traffic induced by North Carolina good roads. "Some figure.“?, vouched for by the national automobile chamber of commerce and other nuthoriti- es, will serve to illustrate t'he value land collnterial benefits of good roads to any one interested in studying the cost .and values of North Carolina’ highways, as an olTset to its auto taxes and ^ bonds. I "The 434,200 motors registered in 'North Carolina on July 1, 1927, nnd probably 100,000 from other states, used tho state ronda. Only Texas and Florida exceeded this registration in the southern tier of states. Again North Carolina exceeds all southern states ex cept Texas in miles of surfaced rc'5ds and is led by only six other states in 'the United States. "In motor ‘taxes,’ North Caro lina iheatls the south again, ex cepting her big sister. Texas. There are nearly 1,500 retailers in the auto trade in tho state land more than two and one half per cent of the residents of the state are employed therein. Two hun dred thooisand auto tourists vis ited the ijational forests of North Carolina in 1927. | “ As shown by a specimen map exhibit lin tJhe National Automo bile Chamber of Commerce Year Book, North Carolina has pro bably the best diatributed system of bus lines of any state in the union, for which good roads are re.sponsible. "North Carolina farmers lead in tlie s'lmbor of owned automo biles in all southfiyn stintes. ex cept Texas, and it costs on an average, but $127 per family per | annum for running a car. That the family car is not only pop ular on the farms but also in the •smialler towns is proved by tho fact, that the highest per cent of their use^— over 60 per cent— ia in the towns of 2,500 and less population. Many manufactur ers report that their operatives ■ drive daily from five to fifteen miles to and from their work over the good roads of the state.” Basing its compilation on ex- iperimenta conducted by the en gineering experiipent station of the lowia State college, the ana lysis estimates that a saving of three and one-half cents per mile is afi:ectbd by automobiles ope rating over paved roads as com- pni'od with second clas.s earth roads. This estim'ate takes into consideration t'he depreciation of the car and the cost of fuel. "Figuring, as a minimum, that the 500,000 or more (from North Carolina and other states) using the state’s concrete highways, averaging 500 miles la month thereon, we have a total monthly- milea'ge of 250,000,000 running, miles, ov, 3,000,000,000 miles in. a year. “Using tho figures of the report of the engineering experiment station, t'he saving in all costs per car is $.033 per mile and we attain tho stupendous saving to motoiists of $99,000,000 per lan- num on the operation of auto mobiles on .North Carolina’s con crete roads over the total cost of equal operation if made on the fiecond class earth roads preva lent in some states. "Checking the possible saving.4 from another angle, there was (in round figures) $6,000,000 col lected at four cents on each gal lon of gas sold in the state in. the fiscal year ended June 30, 1927, or about 200,000,000 gallons were consumed. "If We assume an approximate run of 15 miles as an ^average on each 'gallon, we find a total mile age of 3,000,000,000 miles, and, using again the savings on all costs per mile of $.038, indicated by the experiment station, Ave 'have a saving on automobile ex pense in North Carolina in the year of $99,000,000 or approxi mately the same amount as. figur ed on the former hypothesis.” O A T SliA D LY KILLED BY W INTER FREEZE Raleigh, Feb. 1.— It may be bet ter to .plant some spring oats this year than to depend on buying high-priced hay. Fall-sown oats were badly killed by “the recent winter freezes and many farmers in North Carolina who were de pending on this crop for their bay supply will need hay before they can grow a summer crop. "Oat hay is one of the best roughage feeds for work stock lhat wo have in North Carolinii,” says P. H. Kime, plant breeder for the North Carolina Experi ment Station. “It is pos.slble to I'educe the corn ration when good oat 'hay is available and while many farmers are opposed to planting spring oats because of the uncertainty of getting a good yield, conditions are such now, that' they must take a chance on | spriflg-sowfl oats or have no hay for feed in early summer. It ia true that fall-sown oats, when not winter-killed, usually, make bet ter yields, but an emergency con dition exists this year and jnore spring oats should be planted.” Failure with spring oats usual ly comes from planting too late, use of unadiapted seed, poor pre paration of the seed bed, no fer tilizer and planting on ¡poor soils,' states Mr. Kime. Oats do better on heavy soils than on the ligiht, sandy soils. Those fields where cotton grows too rank under boll weevil conditions might well be planted to ats. In the eastern part of the State the oats should be planted between February 1st and March 1st and one to two weeks later in. the piedmont re gion. A good rule is to plant about six weeks before the aver age date of the last killing frost. When planted in the spring, tho oats must bo heavily seeded. About three bushels to the acre needs to be used. The best vari eties are the Fulghum and Ap pier, with the F'ulghum usually giving best returns. If planting is delayed, it may be wise to use the Burt variety. These three varieties are better than north ern groлvn seed which are late maturing land seldom make good yields under North Carolina con ditions. • "I have not the pleasure of knowing your wife.” "Thf>n I’ow do you know it’s a pleasure?” •If -» ,ii -» * * 3i ■ Come to ‘ * ANGELL’S JKWE1.RY STORE ';• * for anything vou want in the * Jewelry line * * Repairing a specialty * * We have wbat you want * * at 'less money * C.

The craft stagger ed.’ ' “What is it. Simmins?” cried the Pirate Chief. “Are we dam aged?’’ . "Blowout, sir,” replied Sim mins. , Ho walked around to the rear of the car, . and uttered an ex clamation of dismay. '“When' she blew sihe slid.into the rut and let us down pretty hani on one of those little stumps in th& middle of the road,” he ■answered Grimstead’s inquiry. "The gasoline's leaking.” G'ardiner joined the chauffeur. ‘,‘It’s buckled the tank,” he an-: nounced -briefly. “We’re stuck.” ' “The ¡gasoline is all run out,” replied Gardiner calmly. “We’re stuck, all right,” Grim- ahaw agreed. “How far is it to ihelp?” “Nearest gai'age is about twen ty miles.” It was lagreed that Grimshaw 'should pick out a shadier place to wait while Simmins, after changing the tire, walked the 20 miles and got help. Now to be considered is the Damsel in Distress. Her distress was heartfelt but not too serious. It consisted in the fact that she had been ravished 'away against iher will; which ia the usual and proper reason for the distress of fomiilos nbnnrd piratn cvart. At this moment she should have been • listening to the dulcet strains of a jazz orchestra, or maylrap bossing about infatuated ■youths in any old liaunt whore sport clothes are correct and num erous. In.stead of which she was here! Atop a stump! On a barren Cali fornia ^hillside of high brush and an occasional tree! Stranded! H ot!! Uncomfortable!! No wond er tho lines of hor figure Were unbending; no marvel that her eyebrow,s wero level and that the relgard below them w'as— sullen? Out upon you! This damsel is young and beauteous. Smoulder ing is the world. Of ten thous- iind people the younger half would have sympathized heartedly with Burton, by gad! dragged off into the sticks right in the middle of the Del Monte Tournament; and the other half would have muttered things about spoiled brats an(| an indulgent father Jind would have regretted that she waa too old ti^ be spanked. And nqne of this would have affected Miss Burton in the least. When her father insisted, in face of iher ih\st careiless refusal, that she join him on this trip into the backwoods, she was vastly sur- piised, though not greatly put out. But when at the last min ute she fotind that this Gardiner ^ person wias to be in the party, she saw— and resented— it all. Burton had met Gardiner be fore. She did not like him ; and she did not care whether he was the Second in Command of the piratical craft, part keeper of the loot, principal cioviser of stra tagem, or not. There would seem to be no reason why one should not like Gardiner. He is tall, slender, very dark, with regular movie-queen dark ’ eye-lashea, a sleepy well-bred supercilious ex pression on his thin lonig face. All his movements are languidly graceful. He is exceedingly well dressed. His, ability is enormous. He knows all about electricity, and water power, land oil wells, and Diqsel engines,, and railroads, bot'h theoretica|iy, and practically, for these things are some of the loot the Pirate Chief has captur-' ed. Burton said she didn’t like hirh because he played no ibrldge nor golf; but that was- not it. She had other i-easons— no, not reas ons, instinct. ‘ _ At the .present, moment the sec ond in command did not attempt to approach t)he aloof young god dess. Inatead he gave neelded as sistance to the chauffeur, and when the job w^is. finished he was just laa hot 'and dirty. - There were qualities to the man, besides those necessa'ry to boarding and scuttling! I By the,time the job.was finish-1 ed Grimstead reappeared. "Found a great placel” he an nounced, and pairtly on the little ‘Igas” in the vacuum tank and , partly by gravity ■ the big car glided 'around the corner of tho mouiitain. ; CHAPTER II ! Enter the Hero I As often happens at skylines in California, the nature of the country thero changed. Burton had seen redwood trees before, but never had she seen one of tho I redwood forests of tihe north. The sullenness in her eyes was replac ed by,a strtled and somewhat a- wed look. The car coasted slowly for a half milo and came to a little stream where .a tiny patch of green had won for itself la tiny patch of unobscured sky. “Stop here, Simmins,” Grim stead commanded, and all de barked, Simmins hustled out the lunch basket and the thermos cases and proceeded to lay things out in seemly and proper style. Simmins was aTi engaging per son. The natural self within him would have carried him through i life skiptiously, like the giddy goat— but it wasn’t done, you know. He loved playing up to , his part, which was solemn, em-' inently correct, terrifically im-1 posinlg, and he could do it in such a manner as to make self cons cious 'all but the most ^conventio- nal. When at home Simmins beciame a house man. In this capacity tihe one fatal mi-sfortune of his professional career overtook him. Burton, un.soen herself, had witnessed his answering of tho | door bell. He came down the hall eake-w.alking, a wonderful double shuffle, s'mipping his fingers, his head thrown back, his eyes clo.s- ed; but all quite noiseless. Then he turned the door knob and in stantaneously a wonderful tran sition took place. His elbows snapped out at an angle, and ihis inflexible .sing-song voice declaim ed impersonally that he could not sa.y, madame, but that he would ascertain. 0 fatiU day! Next time he tried to come it over Burton, as usual, lie ran against a snag. “Look here, Simmins,” she said decidedly. “I wish you’d come off the perch and be human. I like friendly looking people about me." “Sori-y, Miss,” said he non-com- mitally in his best manner. “I was not aware of giving offence. It is pawsibi'y the results of my training, miss.” . Simmins was enjoying himself fjhoroulghiy. lie knew just when to put the .accents and yet avoid impertience. It was his last shot. The next instant he exploded. Miss Burton had seen! For a long time his world was in chaos. He never did quite re- cove.r the integrity of his atti tude toward Miss Burton. It wasn’t done, you know; but he rather liked it. After supper Simmins most re luctantly began the long journey to tho nearest garage. Burton brought to the camp fire a small covered basket and removed the contents, a Pomera nian dog, half-size even for that breed, named Punkety-Snivvles. The men surveyed the creature in silent disgust. Burton adoringly fed him slices of chicken and then he curled up in a small fluffy ball and went to sleep. Burton redined on cushions, looking straight up, still within her inscrutable silence. Gardiner was clever enough to realize that thi.9 was the time for effacement. Grimstead dozed. But now the peace of the night was broken by the approach of somethinig metallic and loose. ■ Three of the watchers sat up, "Can’t hear any engine,” puz zled Gardiner; “'must be horse- drawn— a wagon' load of m ilk cans.” But the doubt wa», almost im mediately resolved by the danc ing glare of headlights through tho, trées,-.and an instant later a small light car swerved off bhe road and came tu a atop. Enter the Bright-Shining Hero! The thing he rode was one of those nondescript home - niade things of galvanized iron by which the 'youthful /attempt in' vain to disguise and render sport ful a certain otherwise jokeful brand of inexpensive car. The occupants of this craft were three. The young man at tho wheel, a ploasant-faced youth, with short, iilght hair,, and wbat had been a fair-.complexion dark- reddened by, much exposure. Be- iiind him, seated atop a canvas- covered 'jiack, was an Irish ter rier dog. The third occupant was Simmins. “This gentlem'an picked me.up, sir,” said lie glibly, “and I con ceived -as how it would be more expeditious, sir, to come back'with him.” “More expeditious! He’s going in tho other direction!” said Grim stead. Simmins’ agile mind saw the point, and ho realized that if this' young man were supposed to have offered'his services in going for help, there would have been no earthly object in returning to the fire. He would simply have turn ed "iaround and headed for Teco lote and its igarage. “Yes, sir, certainly, sir,” he an swered Mr. Grimstead’s remark. “But, sir, although our tank is ruined, sir, it occurred to me that by filling the vacuum tank by hand every few miles we would be able to work our car to Teco lote, sir, in not over two hours. We would have to borrow from this (gentlem'an only about two and a half gallons of gasoline. I hope I have done right, sir,” end ed Simmins virtuously. Ho managed by his manner to convey t'ho impression that all those details had been considered and discussed with his new com panion. As la matter of fact Sim mins was Sipinning it out as ho went along. "Quite right, Simmins,” Grim stead said. But Miss Burton stirred. "I siipposo this gentleman has that much gasoline to-siiare,” she threw in, apparently idly. That was the weiak point. Sim mins 'did not know. “It’s too bad, but I have 'no gas,” the stranger .announced calmly. “Well, distillate, alcohol, kero sene, whatever it is,” said Grim stead a little impatiently. "My oar will run on them, at a pinch,” “Not a single drop,” repeated the man; “I .run on— well, elec tricity.” "Electricity!” cried Grimstead and Gardiner in unison. "Where do you— ” ; But the technical, discussion was sidetracked. The Irish ter rier, who had been sitting .atop the i>ack, rivited his. gaze on Punketty-Snivvles and went into rctton, seized that personaige in his mouth and deposited ihis bur den in his master’s hand. , I "Come here, you old idiot,” or-' (Icred his master. "This is a dog. 1 know it doesn't look it; but smell of it. You SCO,” ho explain ed, looking up, “I am naturally of a lazy but curious disposition, so I have trained Rapsculli.()n to bring me in anything strange he runs across in the woods as long as it isn’t skunks, iBut he ought to know a dog when he smells it!” “Oih, shut up!” the young man addressed him, and cuffed tho atom smartly. Never before had Punketty- Snivvles felt the hand of author ity. But now Punketty-Snivvels did shut up. „ , , ,"If you have quite finished punishing my dog, will you kind ly return me my property?” Bur ton asked coldly, after a moment. “Why, cer,tainly,” . acquiesced the young man. "Do you really care for it?” And then a queer thing happen ed. iBurton opened her mouth, intending to squelch this upstart, but as she loolted up straight in to his laughing eyes something ingenuously expectant in the depths of them caused her to say: "No, I despise it!” “I thought you would,” re sponded the young man in sym pathetic tones. “Well, great is the power of fashion! Hero, Simmins,” he ordered, “take this nuisance away somewhere. You ought to get la roifl dog. Here, Rapscallion; you’ve got to apolo-, gi'/.e to the lady. First show her your paws are clean.” Rapscallion extended his right paw, keeping .the other still rigid ly elevated. Nobody could have resisted him. Burton did not. “You darling!” she cried, drop ping on her kneea before him. At Uhis moment Grimstead’a booming tones broke in. ."Young man,” »aid he, "It’s an imposition, I know; 'but you see how we are situated. Could you drive back to Tec;;lote and get us heip?” “Surely; I’ll do anything I can,” agreed the young man heartily. "My name is Davenport. "Grimstead is , mine. That’s fine!

He made his decis ion to teach this upstart a leaaon. , “I’ll take you,” he said sudden ly, “on condition that T name the bot.” “All right.” “Very well then.

Then they faded; and she slept. Som%, time later she came to herself w.itlh a start, lighted .a match and glanced at her wrist watch. - One-fifteen! Fifteen minutes re mained before the conclusion of this fantastic bet; and there, through a slit in the tent shone fl. star in its patch of heaven. A i^rofound idisaippointment seized her.

'On a guess for that •sort of a 'stoi’m, lasting that long, five inches,” “Five inches! A cloudburst!” Gardiner snorted. "Yes, this is a. bad storm,” a- greed Davenport seriously. "An other thing; that tree jnst beyond your car, .the one near the edge of the road, will be blcwn down, so we'd better move the car, and be careful where wo pitch camp.” Gardiner muttered , contemptu ously to himself. "How do you claim to know these things so accurately?” de manded Burton bluntly. “Suppose we wait, until morn ing ami see if I do know them,” smiled Davenport. “Yes, that’s la good idea,” ap proved Grimstead drily. "And if we really are to stay here all night, suppose we see what wo can do toward making ourselves.

Hunter psborne) Washington, D-C., Jan. 23, 1928 — In ih statement given to tho country tlirough the press at the opening of the new year. Secre tary of the Treasuiy Mellon pur ported to review business condi tions during 1927, and forecast t'he business probai)ilities of 1928. Business generally hopes that the “continued progress” for 1928 which the Secretary forecasts will not be along the samp lines as during 1927, -when employment reached the lowe,st mark in four years, when bankruptcies far ex.- ceeded any prior year, when com mercial ,and banking fjiilures reached new and appalling^ totals ,iind when railroad trafllc and earnings showed a sharp falling off as compared wltJh 1926. In reviewing 1927 conditions, Mr. Mellon implied that employ ment waa "steady” and busino-ss and industry “stable." These conclusions are not justified by all of the facts, and are at vari ance with f)airly recent admis sions by Mr. Mellon himself, by President Coolidge that there has beew "depression," and by such an M, Schwab, tho steel king, who recently said very frankly that "business has not been good." In line with t)he long .practice of trying to fool the country into believing that the country is pros perous only under la Republican administration, G. 0. P. leaders have evaded the facts about con ditions during the last year and have tried to create the falae im pression that the country is en joying tho greatest era of proa- rican Railway A,4sociation show, loadings of freight traffic by the railroads decreased 1,600,000 cars undei’ the 1926 total, while pas senger traffic fell off four per- cent, reacihing the lowest level since 1916 and 27 per cent under the level of 1920, the last year of FROM THE WORLD’S BACK WINDOW By Chairies McSwain “I am from, Boston, sir.

Thu ! farmers ксор up the average I yields by using good farming methods. 'Ihis includes a well prepared .seed bed; seed of a good variety of cotton free from di sease and of hi'gh germinating power. With this as a beginning and with the large use of complete fertilixers in proper proportions, they, are able to produce large ^fields per acre even under ad- ver.se weather conditions and in sect ravages. By t'he use 'of available plant foods, allowing the plant not only to get a good start, 'but to make a contiiuious growth without a setback,, the plants put on more fruit and produces'it earlier than otherwise would be the case. W hile the .nitrogen makes vege tative gfowth, the phosphoric iicld strengthens the root develop ment and adds to the formation of t)he squares and to the earii- ness of the crop, while the potash not only furnishes food to the .plant,. but 'strengthens the, cell walls tendin'g to keep off diseas es, auch as wilt nnd, rust.

Tihey think if a man does .a thing in order to get money he slvou'id be somewhat ashamed of it. I wish to say a good word for tho desire to make money. If seems to me it is about the most wholesome desire in the human bosom. What would we do unless peo ple could make money? The gas we burn in the house would re main in the coal if there were no profits in taking it out .and pip ing it to the residence. You could not have electricity unless it paid somebody to bring it to your house. You would have to do without most of the food you pat and the clothes you wear if nobody could make a profit by supplying you with them. We shouW be very glad to give these middlemen . something for their brains. Without their ser vices life would be barren indeed. Giving people wages or pay is the way we induce, people to do something for u» which we can not do or do not wflnt to do o.ur- selves. Formerly we had a system of siuveiy by which men did what Wc didn’t want to do. The conscietice 'of the world rebelled a'giiinst that, and now to get a man to do for us what we do not want to do our.selvo.s, or cannot do, we simply pay him. Without this system of paying people for t'hoir labor there would be none of it done for us. The wage ,system beautifies our lives, fills it Avith comforts and luxuries and the wihole fabric of society rests upon it. Every man or woman should not only be busy but should be busy abou't .'joniething that the world is W illing to pay for. When somebody pays for what you do, you may be sure your work is needed. If you are just work ing for nothing, you may be moro of a nuisance than a benefit. The wage system is a test by which you know that your work is appreciated. No man should be ashamed of getting wages. Everybody of any account works for a wage in one form or another. Of courae ho should do nothing dishonorable or disgraceful, but he should not do that, anyhow. So, eliminating ail wicked or cri minal or selfish acts, the best way to test the usefulness of your ac tivities is to see whether anybody wants to pay for them or not.

'c f e S n g ?heTeed ?o ^ r?rof ‘'el'ation.s. with the public by throwing away’ som e'oi'his‘pra vitality; .'4, Keeping out, insects by making the seed bed tight ^nd by using poison. " ' All of' those practices tend to give them an early start. They ' fertilize properly with complete fertilizers, they cultivate thor oughly, and they harvest and market the crop in a business like manner. The 'one thing that tends to pro duce a good crop of tobacco more than probably any otiher one thing is the use of an abundant supply of available iplant. food. This in- flures a large crop grown evenly, tending to produce quality. Tho tobacco pliant is Ji heavy feeder a'nd has to be grown fairly quick ly. On sandy soils, it is recom mended that from 800 to 1,2000 pounds of a fertilizer analyzing : 8 per cent phosphoric acid; 4 per cent nitrogen, and C per cent pot ash be used. On the heavier types of soil, the same amount of fertilizer analyzing 8 per cent phosphoric acid, about 3 per cent nitrogen, and 3to 5 per cent pot ash, may be used. A modern milk house furnishes tho necessary protection, It INFATÜATÎONS Under the smooth and polite surface of the modern communi ty, hot emotion.s are seething, and many of them threaten danger ous explosions. Many men and women become pos.se.s.snd by irrational infatua tions for persons of the opposite sex. Girls fall violently in love with vicious men, won by the sweet and mannerly ways such fellows know how to assume in their company, And men will get infatuated with girls who will never give loyal devotion to any , husband. And if their friends argue with these folks, they angrily declare that those unworthy flames are paragons of excellence. Love is said to be blind. Oculists and opticians find it extremely difii cult to fit him with spectacles. Knowing folks say that the vic tims of these sentimental conta gions- neWl some new interest to divert thi^ir minds. The baby cri es for the moon, but if you give him a powerful new tin horn, the moon ceases to be essential to his tvappiness. Similarly many young people recovered from their attacks of calf love when they got interest ed in some new athletic sport, or obtained a now job that occupied thoir entiro attention.

TWO DOGS SAVE LIFE OP MASTER DEATH PENALTY LEGAL IN 40 STATES, FOI{ PRISON MURDERS IN THREE 1\10RE -------- I New York, Feb. 3.— Fourteen states have abolished capital ^ punishment since 1847, but six; of them subsequently restored' it and in throe moro it may be in voked as a penalty for homicide within a prison. State law touching upon tho death penalty has been tabulated anew by the League to Abolish Capital Punishment as a result of discussion aroused by the Sny der-Gray executions in New York, the life imprisonment of Adolph Hotelling for murder in Michigan and the State’s demand for the death penalty in the W illiam Ed ward Hickman case in California.< Michigan, Rhodu Island, Wis consin, Kansas, Maine, Minnesota and North and South Dakota have abolished caj/itul punishment, but Rhode Island, Maine and North Dakota still make murdol' within a prison itunishablo by death. Michigan, first to do away with the death penalty in 1847, has never gone back to it, although a measure restoring it came be fore tho State Legislature, in 1927 and w«s defeated. The Govar- nor of South SDakota vetoed a bill for restoration of capital punishment in 1927 after it had passed the Legislature. Colorado has abolished capital puna.shmont twice lin fifty-six years and has restored it both times. It was done away with in 1872, made legal again in 1878, aboiished once more in 1897 and put back in State law in 1901. In Ttmnossoe tho death penalty was made illegal in 1915, but was brought back in 1918. Washing ton and Oregon abolished it in 1913 and restored it in 1920. Ari zona and Missouri, which also did away with it in 1913, placed it in. tho statutes again as tho extreme penalty in 1918 and 1919 respectively. The League to Abolish Capital Pu'nishment was founded in 1925, and since then it has boon active bot)h in seeking elimination of the death penalty in states which retain it and in fighting its re storation elsewhere. No State has restored it in the three years, but neither have more states done away with it.

Would you like to know who the leading men and women of Davie County are? Would you know how to go about finding the man who is doing the thinking for himself and many other people, tho fellow who is doing things Worth while on the farm, in the factory, the store— anywhere? Would you know the names of those who are leader's in tho church, in the promotion of the growth and welfare- of their towns or communities— the real pillars as it were? You admit that half, or oven less than half of the popula tion of Davie County do the thinking for themselves and the other half, too. You will agree that less than a third of the men of the county dictate and control ,the proceed ings and policies of thoir political parties. You will, a.dmit that a very low por cent of the women rule in the social circles, in their club work— that so and so are the real Uaina and force in auch and .such a work or mnvnment' i'.'.ndng the women. Did you ever wonder W HY? Did you over' long to knovv the secret of the power nnd ability for 'leadership of the real big men and women of your com munity or county? , Do you want us to put you onto a secret by which you may judge who the real leaders of your community are? Well, listen and we will do it in a brief way. Think over the names of those whom you know stand for something in the town or community in which they live. Then go to thom and ask this question? “Do you rend YOUR HOME NEW SPAPER?” Nino out of ten of them will toll you "YES.” Is it because one reads THE MOCKSVILLE ENTER PRISE that ho happens to'be a leader in his county or community? Wo are not saying that it is, but we are say ing that if ho is a thinker, a leader, a power in his com munity, ho is recuiving and reading the home newspaper, l>r no real leader would bo without his homo newspaper under any circurnstancos. A loader is always a reader and a thinker, for no one but a thinker can bo a leader. And a thinker will, bo a loader and a reader will nparly always be a thinker. Anyhow, you will'find THF, MOCKSVILLE ENTERPRISE going into the homes of the roal .thinkers • and loaders of Davie County. If you don’t think so just investigate a bit and yoU’li bo convinced. The time has passed when a man or woman who pretends to amount to anything worth while will be without his or 'her homo newspaper. Another thing we havd observed. Most of the people of wealth, most of tho good', livers in this county take, THE MOCKSVILLE ENTERPRISE. We feel sure, after years of close observation, that you can take those who got this paper iregularly and they can buy 95 per cent of Davie County and walk off with it. That is not sayin'g that 95 por cent of the people of the county read Tho Mocksvilie Enterprise, but it is say ing that those who do road it can buy and pay for at least 95 per cent of the county— that is that the' real folks who are doing things already take .THE MOCKSVILLE ENTER PRISE. This does not mean that there are not many men and women of means and brains in this county who do not take this paper, nor any other paper, but the point we are making is that, taking the county as a whole, if you would know those who are doing things just investigate and you will find that nine out of ton of them subscribe to and read , THE MOCKSVILLE ENTERPRISE, The day is passed when a family pretending to amount to anything at all can .(iet along Avithout the homo news paper. Long term schools, universal education, modern business methods, the changed conditions in every way, make the homo newspaper as much of a necessity as a floor in tho home.

Raleigh, Feb, 8, — There is a variety of soybean suited to moat any section of North Carolina, Some of the beans are best fpr seed, others aro best for hay and tho wise farmer will plant the kind that fulfills t'he need on his pjlace. In tho opinion of C, B, W illi ams, head of the department of agronomy at State College, four to six varieties should fill all re quirements in any one loca'lity. Very few soybeans are now pro duced for oil. 'rhoir main use ia for aoed, for hay and for soil im provement purposes. Soybean hay is one of tho Uneat legume hays that can bo produced in tho State and ranka about equal with illfalfa as a feed for dairy cows. The man who wants to pi'oduce such 'hay will not wish/'to plant a variety that producea much seed and but a'amali quantity of coarse hay. Some of these things muat bo conaidered in planting the soybean crop this spring, stat- 08 Mr. Williams. In the ooastal plain, Mr. 'W illi ams recommends Laredo, Herman, Manimotli Yollow, Tokyo, Biloxi and Otootan in the order named for seed. For hay, he recom mends Laredo, lO'tootan, Tokyo, Herman and Mammoth Yellow in tho order named. For grazing hogs, Ihe Herman is a good e.arly boan; tho Mammoth Yellow and Tokyo do.si.rable medium beans and the Biloxi a good late bean. The Mammoth Yellow, Herman and Tokyo aro three good beans for planting in corn, for soil im provement nnd for oil. In the Piedmont section, the Laredo, Herman and yirginla are Kocd beans for aood^'’tho Larodo, V irginia'and Hprmij'n for hay; the Herman, Mamijioth Yellov' and Tokyo for grazing hogs and tho Larodo, Her|n;i,n nnd Virginia I'or planting in corn and for soil improvement. In the mountain section, Mr. Wiliipms reconitnonds t'he Virgi nia, Herman, Southern Prolific, T.,arodo and Dixie in tho other, named for seed; tho Larodo, Vir ginia and Herman for hay; the Black Eyobi'ow and Dixie for ear ly hog grazing; the Herman and Southern Prolific for late hog grazing and tho Larodo, Herman, Southern Prolific and Virginia, for planting in corn and for soil improvement.

PRESTON President, American Bankero Association N O class of people has.been more diligent in trying to under stand tho agricultural problem than the ban Iters of this country. The agricultural problem is a real problem and de- .......m ands the beat thought of everyone. This country cannot continue along happy lines w^lth only sections of the country pro.spe>'ous. -^Prosperity must be pa.ssed around if iiny- I body is long to enjoy it. This question can- I not be solved by the farmers alone, but ihe I m ajority opinion is that there ia no legisla- i tive remedy for agriculture. It is an eciv i nom ic question pure and simple and must bn I worked out accordingly. I A few years ago it was contended that I agriculture did not have suflicient credit i facilities. T hat proposition was often made s a political question. I do not presume there I are m any who will question the fact that I agriculture now has am ple credit facilities. M ixing Farms nnd Factories It is a fact that no community and no T R, PRESTON has over become great purely from , agriculture. It is not to the interest of New York and other great centers to seo the sm all communities and the agricultural I sections losing their w ealth and importance. In the end it will react upon thorn to their disadvantage. Th« 4-Door Sedan . . Tho Sport Cabriolet Utility Truct< ChauUOnly)Light Delivery trtne (Clia,,lsOnlyi à i 5Allpric« f.o,b.Fllni,Mlch.

Raleigh, Feb. 8.— The perman ent pasture trio of carpet grass, dallis grass and lo.^pedoza is causing many farmers through out e-.stcrn Carolina to become enthusiastic over the prospccts for grazing liveatock in that sec tion. Sam J. Kirby, pasture spocia- liat of State College, returning from ii trip of inspection.to many pastures, states that there are a number of oxcollont pastures thr oughout tho region. Some- mon who thought that they wore thr owing away their money in seed ing grass now aay that this was one of the best farm investments t'hat they have made in recent years. R. R. Taylor of Como in Hert ford county is ono of theao men. ITi! told Mr, Kirby that while ho thought it foolish to invest his money in grass and clover seed, he- is glad that he did, By tho first of July, last year, his sod began to show up well. He put 75 hogs and six cows on tho 16 acres and when ho saw that they could not keep tho land grazed, ho added hia aix mules. Now he plana to plant more 'Pasture and ':o increase his livestock. , Mr. Taylor planted an aband oned field, but inado excellent pre paration. lie broke the land deep- 1 . rt n H. HihIcAfl. n ЛЯ .

This past winter, ho added a'ton of ground limestone and 300 pounds of acid phosphate per acre as a top dros,sor to the land, There wore 19 other men in Hertford county who planted pas tures in the apring of 1927 and 14 stated that the returns wore well worth while. Some of them are adding blue grass, rod top and white- clover where the pas ture is seeded on tho heavier soils, , They find thiit this niixturo worka in well with the other com bination. One of the fine things about the pastures now being grown is that they are planted on the so- callod waste land. This moans that this land is made to pay a profit and to open up tho avenue for additional profit with live stock, especially dairy cowa. MIstreaa: "I saw №o milkman ki.ss you thia morning.

"It’s been running without a break, and without apparent -loss of energy at any time up to five o’clock,” answered Gardiner. "We’ve got to tie this thing down before somebody else geta hold of it,” declared Grimestead. "I wonder if anybody 'has? Hn might be tied up already.” “May bo,” agreed G'ardiner, "but I don’t think so. Thia seema to be his first test of the thing.” “Well, we must tie him up,” said Grimstead. "Going to buy him out, chief? You could 'probably get it cheap, comparatively.” "Gardiner,” said the pirate, "I somotimoa wonder a little about you,” “W hat do you mean?” asked Gardiner. "I gather you think we c,ould drive a cheap bargain with this young man.” Gardiner considered his reply for a moment. "Yea,” he said finally, with con viction. "I think we coi.vld— be fore ho geta talking with aome ono elae.” “Ot course we could, but we won’t, r n offer him the very largest share I can, or the high est royalties possible consistent with control and good business.

No\y that that young ma’n really understood tho ;position in the social struc ture he was suppoaed to fill, he played up and becamo the per fect Garage Mechanic. When this performance drew Simmin’g puz zled eye Larry’s happiness was complete. “Now,” sighed Grimstead com fortably, as he struggled to hia thick legs after supper, “If you young people will excuse us, Roas and I have a little business to talk ovor.” He lighted a ci|ifar and, foll.ow- eij by,„.Gardiner, . disappea^^^^^ elae ia going to buck.

"But 1 don’t believe I could decide as to my choice until I heard a more definite pro- iposition of each kind. How much stock would I get, and how much royalty?” Gi’imstead here showed further his qualification for chiefhood by shooting back his proposal. He had thoug'ht it all out, and was ready.

It was no impossible Utopia; it was an absurd dream of an im possible “equality” ; but it was a world of opportunity released from pressure. W hat mon did with the opportunity would still be, aa it had always been, a mat ter for themselves. But no 'longer would there be any reason or necessity for the submergence under inexorable circumstance of tho man whose hands reached toward the'stars.

Of course, I don’t know; I!m just be ginning to try it out.” . "Well, you may have something, though it sounds pretty radical,” yawned Grimstead, as though the subject had ceased to interest him.

Sweet clover is really more of a pasture than a hay plant; es pecially is this statement true in reference to the spring or early- summer crop. This crop is usu ally coarse, succulent and difficult to cure into good hay, especially when the weather is rainy as is so often the case in the late spring. Cattle make wonderful gains on sweet clover pastures and cows given an unusually good flow of milk when grazed on it. - ' Sweet clover has a sljght ten dency to bloat but not nearly so much as red clover. Therefore, ' when cattle are first placed on sweet clover pasture some pre cautions should be taken so that they will not eat to excess. How ever, but few cases of bloat have been reported from pasturing on sweet clover. , The 'best time to seed sweet clover when unhulled seed is us ed, is during the late winter. In the rpKiovi from February 15 to Mq.vch 15. In the Piec’.mont and ‘iTiountainous sections, seedings should be made from February 15 to March 15. Tho seed may he sown on top of the ground -with out being covered. Seed in the huU Konernlly gives bettor results than that which has been hulled ,br scarified. However, if seeding is delayed until .spring, scarified seed will giye just as good, results ^.ufl unhu'lldd';seed. onT/ime and inoculation arc very inaiiissary for the prQduction, of W. N.

Dr. Winters points out that the average production of cotton per fa rm - in the southeast' is nbout ten bales per farm. The average consuni'ption of the textile mills is aiboutl 3,000 bales per year, which in^iins that some 300 or more grc^M's must be used to supply tliSJieeds of a single mill.

Says tho Morganton editor: "Tho News-Heraid has taken occasion before to cnll attention to the number of imtside solicitors and 'beggars who Iny siege to Morgnnton nt more or less intervnls. Every week, nnd sometimes every dny, these house-to-house caiivnssers make their rounds. For the mo.st part they seem to confine their activities to the places of business, but frequently they. tnke the residential sections, street by street regnrdless of the' worthiness of the onuses for which they seek contributions they often resent any questioning or even slight intimation that there is nothing to prove but that they are rank imiiostors. Without doubt in many cases their claims are'without foundation and they have taken up begging as a profession. Yester- dn,\ a ni.',n made a thorough cnnvns of the town for Some mission orphanage.

Something of this kind is needed., Tiliese drift ers nnd house-to-house solicitors for alms are becoming a public nuiiinnce.” . ■ It looks like tlie time has conic when, for tho protection of the Mncksvillo general public and for tho .чр.ко of tho causo of char- Uy, f.omothinjr mii.st be dcino to abate tho 'bog;;ar nuisance in this town.

No town nor community '•jan safely grow w'ithont one of these in sufilcient proportions to back that growth. A town may make a- sudden and unhealthy growth for a season on "hot nir,” but even tually tho roneti,on must inevitably come. Towns grew beciiuse of the nccumiilntion of humanity in one small spot, nn-d to assemble' a big volume of humanity in one seation permanently, there must be something there at which that humnnity can work— something to sustain it, and this requires either mining, manufacturing or agriculture.' These ari the fundamentals of growth and prosperity and only Avhen backed up and .sustained by one, or nil of them, can any town or' communitv safely expect to expand. That’s why we have always claimed that praetienlly all other businesses prosjior or sufi’er with agriculture.- GREAT SCHOOL DISTRICT A West Virginia man has annoui\ced his c.nndidacy for a plnco on the district school board and announnces as' a principle in hia platform that, if elected, no flapper will bo employed to teach in said district.

WINSTON-SALEM IS SECOND LAU(5EST TOHACCO MARKET l!y selling appro.ximately 632,- 678 pounds of tobacco yesterday, the Winston-Salem Leaf Tobacco Market moved up into second place among the markets of tho world, oiisting Greenville, hither to the seecond market of tho world, which estnblished n record this year of 61,421,204, Winston-Salem’s record for tho year now stands at approximately 61,55!),808 pounds and is second only to that of the market at W il son, The iiverage price paid out vesterday was approximately $13,- 80 a hundred pounds. The local nnw-ket started tho day yesterday with a season total of 60,927,130 pounds and the lino weather brought in a host of growers whose offerings easily pushed the record beyond that of the Greenville market. Various estimates have been made as to the number of pounds thnt will bo sold before thb mnr- ket closes here. It is certain thnt the figure will bo beyond tho 62,000,000 mark, which has been predicted, t»s there Is waiting this morning almost enough of tho weed to run tho sales to that mark. Generally, the quality of tobac co being offered lately is poor, however, some good grades aro being sold from time to timee, keeping the nver.nge from getting i nbnormally low. ____ W. N. EVERETT Winston-Salem Journnl. W illiam Nash Everett first be came iknown ito the people of North Carolina ns n member of tho Gonernl Assembly. Ho wont to the Capital from the county of Richmond, ibut soon demon- straled that ho-wns more thnn a mere representative of n coun ty. Ho Avns n "Stntcmindcd” mnn. To Vv. N. Everett, as much ns to nny other single mnn in North .Carolina, Governor Bickott owed .his unparelleled success in put-; ting through whnt has como to ' ibe known as Bickett’s-grent so- clnl sorvice legislativo progrnm ■and tnx reform program. Eve rett wns nn outstanding leader of the General Assembly during Bickett’s Administration. Ho was one of the membors upon whom Bickett could always rely. "Eve-' rett’s heart is in the right place,” is the way Bickett sized him up. 'Phe War Governor hnd no stnun- cher friend thnt Everett of Rich mond. ' But Everett had more than n heart. He was one of the State’s keenest-minded business men. He had made a success of his own business in Richmond County— merchandising and farming— long before he undertook to carry on the bu.siness of the Common wealth. Mr. Everett’s liromotion to the oHlce of Secretary of Stnte mot with a popular approval seldom witnessed in North Carolina. Ho had made good as a leader of the Legislature. He had won the utmost confidence of the people. It was generally concecded that ■he was the one man to succeed, the late J. iliynn Grimes, w'hen the- death of that oflicial made it noce.ssary fo.r Governor Mor- ri.5on to select his successor. The people of North Carolina kept Mr. Everett in office until his death, 'rhey would have kei)t him there until ho died had ho lived to be ninety. Tn fact there was a time when the peo ple were -almost ready to make him Governor. Failing health prevented him from continuing active in politics. W. N. Everett was a good mnn. He was one of North Carolina’s best and most useful citizens. Bickett was right. His heart "was in the right place. Everett was one of a strong group of North Carolinians of vision and courage and high ideals who made possible the State’s re markable .progress during the last decade. He was one of the men who stood firmest by Gov ernor Bickett as the foundation was laid for all that has been ac complished since 1918, SOYIIRANS POOr ”f EED FOR FA’ITENING HOGS Dodge Brothers Victory Six Is not only a new car but an en tirely new and better kind of a car.

THE S E N IO R S IX A N D AMERICA’S lASTEST TOUR A'.LSO O N DISPLAY Raleigh, Feb. 15,— While tho •soybean i.s one of the mo.st valu able summer legume crojis for North Carolina, it ig a poor feed for fattening hog.s, “Experiments conducted by our workers have shown conclusively that soybean seeds are unsatis factory .for .pork production be- standnrd feeds used ' for fntten- Ing swine,” snys Enrl H. Hostetl er, in charge of swine inyestign- tiuna nt State College. "On the other hilnd, soybean meal has been found very .palatable and when used as a supplement to corn, rapid and uniform gains are secured.” Prof. Hostetler conducted one test in three different trials, us- , ing 188 pigs, comparing ..soybean meal with fish meal. lie found that the jiigs made about the same daily gain in weight, but that the cost o fthe gain wns greater where the animnls were fed tho so/bean meal and that both lots paid about the same price for each bu.she-1 of corn consumed. 'I’he pigs used were high graiie Poland China animnls raised at the Blackland Experiment Sta tion near Wenonn. The pigs ^yere sold on the Richmond mar- i ket and tht-i'e was, no dockage be cause of soft or oily carcasses. In another test whore he used 235 pi-r.s in fuur trials, ho com pared fish meal with one-half soy- 1 bean meal and the other half fislr meal. In these trials, tho total feed required to produce 100 lbs, I of gain was about the same. How- , ever, tho pigs consumed about I twice as much of the soybean ' meal and fish moal mixed and therefore -brought down the val- ^ no of the soybean meal to about , $30 -a ton instead of $50 which was the price actually paid. The corn used in these feeding trials was for tlie most part grown on the Station farm. The supplements of soybean meal, fish meal and mineral wero pur chased at Washington, N. C. For tho ])urpose of comparison, all feeds used wore charged at the following prices: Corn, $1.00 a bushel; fish meal, $70 a ton; soy bean meal, $60 a ton and mineral at $20 a ton.

Feb. 14.— Whole, sale replacement for former Chevrolet models with the new 1928 lino is now under way by the Hertz Drivurself Coiporn- tion, one of the largest fleet users of passenger nutoinobiles in the world, which controls the opera tion of automobile rental stations in more than 300 representative cities in the United States and Canada, according to advices re ceived 'here from Chas. W. Litsey, operating vice-president and gen eral manager of the Hertz orga nization, with headquarters nt Chicngo. “Replacement of old models with new ones is a regula.r per iodical event with us, made pos sible by the extreme popularity of our Chevrolets,” said M'r. Lit sey. “This means thnt they -are Hertz stations, and this number will be considerably augmented during the year because of the insistent calls for this make of car, “We have used Chevrolets in the Hertz oiganization consistent ly since our inception. Tliey now make up approximately onefourth the total number of cars in our sorvice. "The Hertz rental stations now have on hand the complete lino of Chevrolet passenger models to meet tho demands of our custom ers. The sport cabriolet and tho coupe are overwhelming favorites among business and professional people. The rear deck passenger or iuggage compartment on this type of car plays n big part in their selection. “The iayier types, combining alniiost ponstantly on the road, j beauty with performance, are in and as a result they pile up ,n tremendous mileage total at the end of a year. In addition, their low initial cost 'and economy of operation enable us .to pay out in Hertz mileage our full invest ment within -twelve months, de spite the fact that our Chevrolet reni:«] rates are lower than on any other make of car in our service. “During 1928 practically all former Chevrolet models will be replaced with the ‘Bigger and Better’ line in order that full n'd- vnntago of the added features in tho new car mny be available for Hertz jiati'ons. More than 3,000 Chevrolets aro now in use by high favor for evening engnge- ments 'nnd week end trips; while those who tnke ndvnntnge of our weekly rate plan -for extended out- of-town business or Vncntion tour.s select the type best fitted to their needs. “Our .orgnnizntion wns immen sely impressed with the many points of advantnge of the 'Big ger aind Better’ Chevrolet line over the 1927 ca'r, and we feel assured thnt n substnntial growth in our 1928 business will be ef fected by reason of the country wide enthusinsm which I under stand the new car is command-, ing.’ Pagii a GROW GOOD TOBACCO PLANTS Tho place to begin to mnke good tobncco is in tho plant beds. After selecting a favorable plot of land of suflicient size and burning and pulverizing the soil, it -is- still necessary to add plant food to insure n sufficient num ber of vigorous plnnts early, Most nny ready-mixed fertiliz er suited for the tobncco crop may be used on the plant bed. Generally, t!he analyses used are 8-3-3, 8-3-4, or 8-3-5. Plant food in these proportions hns given good resuil;s when put on nt the rnte of from 2 to 3 pounds per j squnre ynrd or 200 to 300 pounds ' per 100 square yards of plant bed. In some cases, more plant food may be used to advantage. If solu.bl'o nitrogen is used to supplement tho mixed fertilizer, the application should be made I either before the seeci are sown or very soon after the plnnts arc J up. If put on later, tho soluble I nitrogen win tend to cause the plants to become so tender that the shock from transplnnting may kill them. 'I’he fertilizer should be worked thoroughly into the soil to a depth of nbout four inches.-nbout two weeks before the seed nre so,wn, In emergen cies the seed may be sown right after the < fertilizer is mixed in the soil. Strong, healthy, vigorous to bacco plants are necessary for large yields of good tobncco. Plant foods are essentinl to a .successful start of tho tobncco crop.

C., TH URSDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1928 Second Annual Farmers’ Short Course Was A Great Success. THEY WORE GAKTERS EVEN THEN Dr. Grinnlell, Mr. Kimrey and Mr. Shay Ati'Juss Meetings. Spon- HWotl by Local Agricul tural Department NEW STORE TO OPEN SATURDAY The second annufll farmers short course was held February the 16, and 17 at Advance and Smith Grove schools, with 125 or more students and farmers at tending. , The first speaker, Dr. Grinnell, of the occasion, was Introduced by Mr. Young as being of the the loaders in the field of Vetenary Medicine. His address was given over to Contagious ■ Abortion, a very serious disease of tlie dairy cow. He discussed thoroughly tho symptoms of the disease. ’Phe lirovcntive measures which were pointed out as the most practical .method for thè farmer to follow are given as follows: First, take care of the spreader co\v. The importance of this fiictor can not be over estimated. This is the seat of the infection according to the, speaker. Second, blood teat, first find out the number of cows you have in your herd that are reactors. Then govern your prac tices accordingly. This te;t can b(> mado by the state laboratories 'at littlo cost to the farmers. Third, segregate your infected animals from tho rest of the herd. After the tost has boen made and if one fourth of your cows are In fested with the disease germs put them in a barn and let them run in a separate pasture, if,this is not practical at least put them in a separate part of the barn. This is tho way the disease is spread. Fourth, contrary to-the general opinion the milk from the infected herd can safely bo fed to calves from the clean cows M'ithout injury to tho calves. Tho disease is not transmitted from parent to ofT-spring, but the cows must become infected after prac tically reaching maturity. How ever tho calves will got the in-' fection from the milk, but they will bo free from tho germs be fore they aro again placed with the clean herd. According to Dr. Grinnell this practice has been followed by the loading cattle producers in this country and has given wonderful results. As a result of this work several of the farmers of the county, have a- greed to begin the testing work. Tho second speaker on the prol. gram was Mr. Kimrey, a well knewn and welcomed visitor from the extension service also. He spoke particularly to the students on the importance of dairying to society and its place in the di versified system of farming. He s.aid that many persons were forc ed into dairying in order to make money enough to support their families and to run the farm. Also that all the great nations wore nations of cow keepers. We need 400,000 more cows in North Carolina to produce all the milk the doctors say we should drink. He also discu.'isod in a general way the importance of pastures, record keeping and proper feed ing to tho dairyman. The last day was given over to Mr. Shay, the famous swine man. He illustrated by charts the ave rage price of hogs for the pa.st 17 years' Then he discussed the market iconditions from several angles. 'We should adjust our hog raising to our general ¡sys tem of farming instead of killing our ‘Grood sows as soon ns an off year comes. There is money in hogs : every year. Corn gives us 1000 times as great an income marketed through hogs 'as sold on the local market as whole corn. He also discussed and showed graphically tho-elTects of various systems of feeding on net income. Pariiiers who djid rwot attend these meetings missed a treat of tlieir lives. Thère is nothing like a good live farmers meeting in the rural sections if it is only to exchange Ideas. Lets hav.e more of them Mr. Young! , The poultry growers of North parolina have begun their annua! ‘cooperative i»arlo(; shipments of jPPultry; this work is done large' jiy under the supervision of .the County Agents of the State Col- IÌPgg_extension division. .

Wrapping her head in a gaso line-soaked towel which she then ignited, Mrs. Louise Jackson, fifty i six year old wife of a retired Presbyterian minister, inhaled ' (lame which caused her death a short time later. She left no ex- planation. I "Inspired” 'by a story ending in a suicide by gas, nineteen year old Sarah Hadlick, turned on the gas jots in the kitchen of hor home today in Ntley, N. J. She w.as found dead with the maga zine containing the suicide tale open on her lap. No note was found. • ' STATE COLLEGE STUDENT I PULLS ORIGINAL STUNT A few days lago it was announced that American archaeologists, representing lin American University, had dug up Queen "Shub-Ad” j in Ur of the Chaldees, Abraham’s old home town! It is believed ^ that she had been buried 6,000 years, but even so, articles found on ■ the body proved that even in Abraham’s young manhood days the ^ dear women were just about thè same— fond of ornaments and pret ty di'esses. ' Queen "Shub-Ad” wore a. beautiful robe, a lovely nèck- lace, gold rings hnd a bando. A golden seal around the body still bore her name. Her face paint was .still -vvith her, but no mention was made of any lip ¿tick having been found with her body.’ But,'poor, dear Shub-Ad, she possibly never knew the thrill of wearing short skirts and roiled stocking. This was shown from the fact that just above her once pretty knees, the excavators found a pair of gcld-buckled (gartera. ' Her hair was interwoven with an abundance'of gold ribbon, The wise man was “puity nigh” right when he said, "there is nothing new under thé sun,” or ■words to that effect. Don’t you know Father Abraham.hated to leave a town of such gorgoously arrtiyed women for the rdw and uncouth country of tho Caananites? , ' RAPS GOVERNOR McLEAN That was a pretty hard knock which the News ,and Observer gave Governor McLean Tuesday.. That paper suggested that he named Senator Williams as Assistant Director of the Budget because hé w.as afinost forced by public sentiment to name Hartness as Sec retary of State, when in reality he had had Williams under favorable consideration and hated to turn him down without doing,something for him. Thè News and Observer pointed out that the. Assistant Director of the Budget was lauthorized three years ago, but says that tho Governor in his discretion had not seen fit to name one as provided by law, until this late date, and believes that if the state had gotten along without an Assistant Director fo;‘ thiee years, there is no reason why it should not do so now. iDoes look a little bit like there might be something to the "Old Reliable’s” claim, but the Governor may, of course, be abie to show good and proper reason for his action, other than paying ,a political friond at the expenso of .?6,000.00 a year to the state. DO YOU LAMA-LAMA? Riileigh, Feb. 19. — His room mate missing, the furniture dis arranged, pools of blood on the fioor and hair upon a bed pillow, w.as tho sceno that fretted E. L. DulUe, of Raeford, State College junior upon his return early Sat urday morning from a “late date,” A terrific sti*uggle was evident. I Duille immediately got a class mate, A. R. 'Marley, of Gastonia, out of bed .and they began a I search for the "murdered”' fresh man room mate, R. H. Gatlin, Raeford. I An hour’s search resulted in Gatlin being found sleeping peace fully in another room. H e ad mitted the boax. It was a cow’s hair nnd ,a chicken’s blood that furnished the freshmen ’With "evidence” pf a fatal “hair-clipJ ping” episode. ___________ AGED MOTHER PAYS FOR ERRING SON i Washington, Fob. 19.— With the surrender of 2(i-yoar-old Paul Marye, former postmaster of near- I by Arlinffton, Va., yesterday to New York police, and his confes- ■sion to embezzlement of about $1,- 000 of tho iiostoince funds, it de veloped here that Marye’s 65- year-old mother, Mrs. Annie C. Marye, had gone to work follow ing her son’s disappearance three years ago and repaid the money to the ciovernment. Because the mother, a widow, is in broken health she has not been informed of ,her son’s sur render. It was said at her home, however, that if her son is not extradited to Virginia within the next few days she probably will be told so she may go to New York to see him. No word had been received from the son in the mor<5 than three yeais of his absence. THE movTe t ic k e F The "Lama-Lama” may become the now dance for 1928, says a Berlin news dispatch. Tho Lama-Lame eomos from, the Thibetan section of Asia, and is said to be la bit like the Charleston, tho Black Bottom, and Blues,'but has enough new stops to make it appear.as a grand-new’ dance. 0, yea, it’s a jazz dance, all right. The Lama- Lama is .done to a Thibetan band resembling an American jazz or chestra, innd they say it is wild enough for tho most ultra mqdoni American youth. Even the jungles of Africa have nothing to the Lama-Lama when it comes to real action, aecbrding-, to tho Berlin dispatch. ------------0----------- A SURE RECOMMENDATION They say that buttermilk is the favorite drink of J. A; Hartness the newly appointed Secretary of Stiite, and that he eats sauerkraut and wears wool socks. Now we leave it to any one, that’s recommendation enough. Any mnn who'likes buttermilk, sauer-kraut and turnip greens gets our vote for anything, even for president of the United States. It shows that he is a man not only of good taste, but sound judgment as well. We’re fc(r the lovor of corn bread', buttermilk, sauer-kraut and turnip greens. He’ll nearly always do to t№ to. Ho can be trusted. GAS, OR ROAST? One can even now hai'dly imagine the alluring power of the flivver. It looks like it has just seized the American people with a death-like grip. Some men and women will even mortgage their homes for an automobile, and when it is a question of using a dol lar on Saturday, for buying gas or for pmrchasing a roast for the Sund.ay dinner, when one must be done without, most men and their families are agreed on getting the gas. We heard of a follow who resides in an adjoining town, who a short while ago, had just enough money to ’buy a roast for Sunday dinner, or five gallons of gas for the ilivvei’’.s Sunday supply. iHe knew what he wanted, but thought ful husband that he was, he thought to ask the wife. .So calling her up late Saturday lafternoon he said: “Listen, dear, I have just en ough money to get five gallons of gas for the cur tomorrow, or u nice Sunday dinner roast. Which must I buy ? We can’t get both, you know. W hat do you say, ..nweetheart?” “Get gas,” promptly came back thé answer, and gas'he got, of course. ■ . Last week a ¡Chicago lady went into court and asked the judge for a' decree of divorce from- her husband. She told the judge that her husband went wild for an automobile, but had no money with which to purchase one,' neither did he have any property to mort gage. He -wanted to pawn her jewelry, sho said, for a flivver,' and when she denied him the 'jewelry, he made such an unpleasant up roar in tho household that life for her became miserable,and exis tence burdensome. She, therefore, wanted the judge to free her from such a flivver crank. ‘ That’s anothej fine proof of the hold the automobile has on the average American, but the strange thing is that in that case the woman owned something she loved more than i;he flivver, hence the trouble. A NORMAL LIFE SPAN OP 70 Interest continues to grow in our Movie ticket contest, and is causing the advertisements to be read veiy carefully. Next week you will have to get the line oiit of two or three different .ads in order to make it spell the eor- rect name. It is too easy to locate by putting short names in one ad, therefore we are going to make you earn the ticket next week.. The line this> week appeai'R in the advertisemen|; of. . . ■ on page [ number.. . . i Look, for it. ,; Dr. Charles Mayo, the ^ renowned American surgeon, says that within two generations the П9гта1 span of human life w ill .be 70 yeai's, as against less than 60 now. He believes th.at the rapid pro gress of medical science will make this possible. Discussing the work of medical science. Dr. Mayo said: "In its laboratories and its research clinics, medicine is now turning its attention to the degenerative diseases. It has eliminated many of the graver hazards of the eiarlier years and has pushed up the' average duration of life close to 60." ■ ;. That 'soijrids entirely reasonable. The average life span has 'been I'aised qliite considenably within the past generation, but most authorities attribute this so far to the saving of more, of the 'babies. However, if medical science can make possible the saving of the lives of more babies, it can wli^en directed as Dr. Mayo says, even .add to the actual life span of the average adult. ' Who knows, but that in the near future the woi’ld may learn that those old Bible characters, who lived to bo hundreds of years old were not such impossibilities as folks once thought. Old Methu selah who, we believe, lived to be 069 voars old, 'and begiit sons arid daughters,” may yet have to look to Ids laurels, else some future gentlemtyn may ■ go, him .ane,' ' ■ NORTH AMERICAN BOLIVAR By Everett Ellis American tourists who find themselves in Caracas, the capi-’ tal of Venezuela, are reminded of their native land in a pleasing way when they find a lovely little park bearing the name of Plaza Washington', in tho plaza is a statue that ought to give a thrill to all irue-hearted American visi tors, for it is a figure of George Washing>ton. On it is this in scription: "George Washington, the North American Bolivar.” The student of history natural-, ly wants to know more about this statue and' why it boars such 'an inscription.. In a historical way, it .is related to another statue in the Plaza Wa.shington. This sta tua is of Simon Bolivar, famous in history as tho "Liberator of Venezuela.” The story of Simon Bolivar has everything to do with th^ stnry 'of Goorgo Washington’s statue in Caracas. It has to do with the fact, that one finds in Caracas streets and houses named for Washington, and his, picture in hundi'ods of homes and i'n pub lic places.. Pictures of Washing- : tori and Simon Bolivar hang side by side in some of the hotels and public buildings, while the boys , and girls are as fam iliar with tho name of Wàshington as are tho boys and girls, in our own America. I Simon Bolivar is as much of a national hero In' Venezuela as Washingtori is in the United .Stat es, .and for the same patriotic reasons. Bolivar was born in Caracas in July of the year 1788. He became a lawyer and hi^ earn ings, together with an inherit ance, made him a man of ample wealth, He joined^'^the patriots who rose in revolt against Spain in the year 1810. Ho became an officer in 1811 and was given com mand of a poorly trained and in adequately equipped army of Spaniards. With high courage the young commander went forth' to do or die, if need be, for his counti'y. The full: history of his triumphant defeat of his foes is one of the most remarkalsle chap ters in hi.-tory. Of it we read: "Starting on the Atlantic side and f’orecd to live on such meager rations as the poor people wil lingly dividt'J with hin-r and his followers, an’d at other times liv ing on berries, sriiall fruits, and the root's of trees, sleeping on tho damp ground at night, and being exposed to ihe poisonous insects and fever germs; fighting on foot and sometimes from the backs of their mules, he finally reaehed the Pacific side. On his triumph ant march he freed Venezuela, Columbia, Ecuador, Bolivia, and Peru;, This brilliant young man, who in his .thirties released most of South America from the Span- .ish yoke, and who many times risked his life on the battlefields of his beloved counti'y, died at last deserted by all except a few friends, with a heart broken by the ingratitude' of the people whom he had sought to free.” Simon Bolivar came into his own, so far as honor was con-, cerned, in the after yeaya, and today one fincls him honored iri his country as'VVashingtcn is hon ored in America. His picture is in all the homes of his country, His hero was George Washing ton and we are told that it was the career of Washington that spurred him on to such .deeds of valor io r his oounti^. One 'of our own famous statesmen, Henry Clay, gave to Simon Bolivar the title of the "Goorgo Washington of South .America.”, Clay used this title in an address given , in the presence of Gérieral Lafayette' was so stirred by ¡the’'address , of Henry- Clay, that ho' aslted' per- , mission from our; American Con-, gress to send a portrait of Wash ington, belonging to him, to Sim- i mon Bolivar. This permission was granted, and a miniature of- Washington with a look of his hair was sent to Bolivar. Today one will 'find replicas of this min- iature' hanging , by . a ribbon oa statues and pictures of Bolivar irr thousands of South American homes. On the miniature is this i inscription: “This portrait of the founder of liberty in'North America is pre- .pented by liis adopted son to him who\has acquired equal glory In South America.” , , ■ ,, . 'Simon 'BoHvai’ often, declared; that, he had no possession that , he, prizèd so highly as he prized t'’o nortrait of byr own Gqorgtt Washington sent to him' by Gen eral Lafayette'. .One will find a fine statue of Simon Bolivar In Central Park,. New York, jilst aa one will find the statue of Giotgo , Washington in the Plaza Wash ington in Carcas. Not until a good many years lifter his death did SiriiOn Bolivar have the honor paid him that was jso rightfully his. He had lost f.ivbr before his death, but one has only to visit hi« native land,: and Caracas in particular, to dis cover the-high esteem, in which Simon Bolivnr, the George Wash ington of South America, is held by a grateful people. • : .I ----------* ----------, LEPROSY CURE IS DISCOVER ED London, Feb. 19.— A remedy for leprosy known as hydnijçarpus ,, oil has been discovered, accord- to-the Sunday Express, which ..

It ia believed that 'She hnd been buried 5,000 yeara, but even so, articles found on ■' the body proved that even in Abraham’s young manhood days the dear women were just about thè same— fond of ornaments and pret ty dresses.' Queen “Shub-Ad” wore a beautiful robe, a lovely n'i>ck- lace, gold rings and a bando. A golden seal around the body still bore her name. Her face paint ЛУП'З still with her, but no mention was mnde of any lip ritick having been found with her body. Blit, poor, dear Shub-Ad, she possibly never knew the thrill of wearing short skirts and rolled stocking. Thia was shown from the fact that just above her once pretty knees, the excavators found a pair of ffoltl-buckled (garters.

He believes thiit the rapid'pro gress of medical science will make this possible. Discussing the work of medical science, Dr. Mayo said: “In its laboratories and its reaearch clinics, medicine is now turning its attention to the degenerative diseases. It has eliminated many of the graver hazards of the earlier years and has;pushed up the' average dui'ntion of life close to 60.” That soiinds entirely reasonable. The average life span has 'been raised quite considerably within the past generation, but most authorities attribute this so far to the saving of more.of the babies. However, if medical science can make possible the saving of tho lives of morci babies, it can when directed as Dr. iMayo says, even .add to the actual life span of the average adult. ■ Who knows, but that in the near future the world may lenrn thnt those old Bible, charactcra,who lived to bo hundreds of years old were not such, impossibilities aa folks once thought.

No man, even ever so well educated, could have written tliat address, save ho whose soul was greater than hia brain, for intellect alone could not have helped him to compose such a masterpiece. And that our readers m-aiy again read it, we copy the following from that ad- ,tVres9,! and recommend tlvat all read it. Here is what Mr. Lin coln said in that address which was delivered on tho Gettysburg .battis field in tho autumn after ■the battle of Gettysburg had been 'fouirht in July before: "Fourscoro and aeven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent ,a new nation, conceiv ed in.-liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men aro created equal.

Wo have come to dedicate ■a por tion of that field aa a final rest ing place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might) live. It is altogether fitting and proper that wo should do this. But in a larger sense we cannot dedicate, we .cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground, 'rhe brave men, living and dead, who struggled hero, have conse crated it far above our poor pow er to add or detract. Tho world will littlo not, nor long remem ber, what wo say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather to ■be dedicated hero to the unfinish ed work which tliey who fought here have thus far so nobly ad vanced. It is rather for us to be hère dedicated to tho great task remaining before us— that from these honors dead we take in creased devotion"'to that causc for which they gave tho ia.st full moa?|Uro of dtvotion — that wo hero' liighly rcijolvo that those doad shall not havo died in vain — tlif'.t this nation undor God, .'■■Iinll havo a new birth uf free- dtr.i— ,'ind th:it govtriiment of the l.'co;ic, by the ¡¡eoplo, for tho peo ple, sliall not periali from tho C iirl.h .” BELL SHOE N4^,:¿’diiy.

W H O’S WHO IN THE STORY .. ,Larry Davenport, author in vents an electric buttery of startl ing power. Grimstead, a capitalist, whom Larry meets wliile he is stranded on a California mountain side by the breakdown of his ear, induces Davenport to sign an agreement % which he nnd the capitalist make and market the battery. Ross Gardiner, G'rimsted’s se cond-in-command, draws up the agreement. He and Grimstead are overheard by Larry as^hey .discuss the manner in which they nvill profit from the battery and ignore Larry’s idealistic aims for It, Burton Grimstead, the capital ist’s daughter, has fallen in love with Davenport, impressed by his strange power of prophecy. She ■suggests that he “dissemble,*” so that Grimstead will think he a- grees to his plan for handling the 'battery. Simmins, butler - chauffeur, iriendly toward Davenport, is persuaded to try to steal the sign ed «grcemcnt from Grimstead’s 'bill-fold. CHAPTER X IX Simmins, a Ijruc Knight The carajpaign of dissembling wont off with a bang. Grimatead’s liostility melted easily. The im pact of Davenport's identity as a famuus author, instead of the me chanic-he Tiad believed him, was •tremendous. Tho engagement fin ished him. Davenport wa.s an excellent mwtch, he was manly chap, and — If Grimstead could arrange it — he was going to be immensely wealthy! Of course he had .a lot of damn-fool idealistic notions, but an author was supposed to be eccentric. Supper passed jovially enough. Then Grimstead caused the hearts of three of the party to skip a beat. "Simmins,” he commanded, "here’s my coat to clean up a lit tle; it’s got an awful fish smell about it.” As he 'Spoke he took off the gar ment and. hung it on a stub, re placing it with a sweater. He removed nothing from the pock ets, and all three of the conspira tors could distinctly make out a corner of tho bill-fold showing from the inside pocket. Simmins picked up the coat .and with it started toward the creek. “Hey!” called Grimstead after him. "Where you going? I don’t want that thing washed 1” "No sir; of course not, sir. Merely .a trifle of sponging, fresh rurinlng water, lyou know, sir,” stammered Simmins at a loss. ,‘Well, go ahead. But there’'S some things in the pockets; look out you don’t lose them. There’s a tobacco pouch and 'a notebook in the side pocket, and my pockct- book in the inside pocket.” “Never fear, sir; I’ll take the best of care,” chattered Simmins. beating -11 hasty retreat. “You’ro not afraid to trust him with a pocketbook?” Larry ven tured to sugge,st. Grimstead laughed. “I wouldn’t trust him with my roll,” ho agreed. “But that pock- etbook contains nothing but pap ers; and they can all bo replaced. There’s nothing there to inter est Simmins.” Burton and Larry exchanged another glance. It was almost too good to be true. After 10 miniite.'j Simmins glid ed unobtrusively into the fire light and hung the coat 'again on the stub. “Here,” Grimstead commanded at once, “bring me that pocket- book out of the inside pocket, For a moment Simmins limbs refused to work; but he succeed ed in extracting the pocketbook and bringing it to his master. Contrai'y to expectation, Gii-im- stead did not open it. He ex amined Simming curiously. “You’re trembling like a leaf,” lie said. "W hat’s the matter with O'ou?" Simmins muttered something about its being chilly by tho stream. “Well, bring me'i my small leather kit bag.” i He opened the kit hag, burrow ed down to the bottom, and tuck- ......................... " ‘ ougli there until wo go. back, Simmins.” "Yes, sir,” said Simmins, "and if there is nothing more, sir, I ask permission to return to my camp to turn in.” “Well, take a drink before you go,” ogered Grimstead. "Here’s the key. Your teeth'are chatter ing.” Simmins gratefully swallowed the whiskey, returned the key and disappeared. Larry and Burton v.'andered off toward the car and found Sim mins waiting for them. “Here, sir; here it is,” he burst out, thrusting .a paper into Lar- ny’s hands. “Whot is to happen when he discovers his loss, sir, I cannot for tho life of me ima gine." "Nothing! Don’t worry, Sim mins. If he finds it out, I will take the blame. You have acted very nobly in this matter. Neitlier Miss Burton nor myself will ever forget it.” “Indeed we shall not, Simmins added Burton; "you laro knight I” Simmins retired, his heart glow ing. The two young people made their w.ay to the bank of the lit tle stream, where they \vould be screen, edfrom the camp. There Larry lighted a match and cast a hasty glance of inspection at the document. ‘‘It’s all right,” he assured Bur ton relievedLy. “This is it! Bless ed be Simmins!” He tore it into small pieces and cast them into the current. "I feel .as though the weight of worlds had been lifted!” ho cried. "It does seem as though some one or somethingAvas helping us,” said Burton soberly. "I think that we should be very thankful .that things came about so easily.” CHAPTER XX Discovered The moment the young peoplo were out of hearing Grimstead turned on Gardiner with an al most savage'intensity of manner. "Listen here Ross,” he said rapidly, "'rhc time has come for action, and vfo must get busy. Things are at touch and go лvith Us and the stakes are the biggest over played.” Gardiner looked at him 'blankly. “Never mind figuring it out. Listen to me, land take orders. ■This man Davenport is a fool, but he ha.s brains. It was perfectly evident that the thought would Soon suggest itself that if he could once get hold of the agree ment he had signed, he could tell us to go whistle.” “But since he and Miss Bur ton— ” “Poppycock! Do you think that type of fanaticism ever becohies •reasonable?” “Then why— ” "A blind. It wouldn’t fool л mudhen, let alone a wise old coot like me. I ’m an old bird; I can put two and two together. The first thing to try was obviously to got hold of it peaceably, by stealing it. If that didn’t work, he was going to get it some how, if he had to hold us up or sand bag us. I know the type. He’s a fanatic, and the most dangerous kind. He’d commit murder be fore he’d give in.” Gardiner was excited. “Get him before he gets us!” he suggested. ‘‘1 began to take my measures at once,” Grimstead went on. “Obviously he’d try fiivst of all to steal the- bill fold; So I made it easy for him.” “Did you suspect Simmins?” “Not at that time. But I fig ured Davenport would begin to manoeuvre to get hold of the coat or near it.” “A test,” murmured Gardiner. “]?recisely. Well, when he did not, I began to think I might be wrong. Then Simmins came back scared as a I’abbit, and I realised he was in it. I’ll settle with him later!” “But the agreement— ” “Was not there, of course! I substituted the carbon copy.” “They’ll detect tho difference; it isn’t signed.” “I signed it for him,” grinned the older man, "it isn’t a very good forgery, but all he’ll do to night will bt- to examine it with Punkett>yánivvles soundly' when that personage had bei.wiiieft in his cl^f'ge. So, crouched in his placC) Tunketty-SnivVols fixsd his beady’ eyo.-j in malovolnncO cn his enemy, and worked up a fiile big hate. ■ Gardiner flashed around a last corner to see ahead ol h im ’.a straight bridge. The lights show •ed him its approach on a slight riso, and that it was built on a high trestle. Then the nose of! the car touched the alight rise | M’nirn i f , „n., , lights lifted. ;iaice it Clevor work, chief,” cried,Gar- At the same instant Punkett ■■; diner.

You’ve got to get out of here, and you’ve got to take this agreement with you to the nearest recorder’s, and get it entered. That means you start tonight; just as soon as everybody has turned in.” Gardiner nodded. “ So far, so good. But there’s another thing. This man is abso lutely capable of laying down on Gardiner, M'ho had not known of the dog’s presence, jumped in surprise and alarm. The car swerved, 'but he was too cool a driver to perm it'it to leave the road. However, '.for three sec onds his attention was deflected, and that time was suflicient' to shoot the car on to the plahking of the bridge. Gardiner saw all this with the corner of hi.s, eye and steered straight and true, while at the same time his direct vision was us, no matler what agreements occupied in identiiÿing the cow- we may have. “What do you mean?” “Refuse his formula.” “But you 'can ruin him.” “He’ll stand that. He’ll stand for anything now he’s got his head set! That’s the sort they used to use the thumb rack on without much success. Could you true i this battery, if you had it, and reproduce the formula?” “Certainly; if what he says ia true, that the plates are a 'Siniplo alloy, and there is no further secret. It Avill only be necessary to analyze them, measure their exact proportions, determine their specific ■ gravity, and observe carefully any peculiarities of their shape and position.” “Remember, their distance from each other is important.” “That, of course. I see your idea. We are to steal the battery.” “It must weigh 40 pbunds,” objected Gardiner. "Do we hide it somewhere?” “No, you’ll drive it out. The roads will now carry you; I ’ve been watching them. Put tho batter.y,.back in that rattleti'ap of his and drive it out.” Gardiner pondered. “When we .stop that self-start er it will be noticed,” ho objected, “.and there’ll be a lot of noise get ting away. Simmins sleeps right next door. What do I do with him?” ■ “Simmins is already taken oare of,” said the pirate chief calmly. “Ho will continue to sleep. That drink I gave him will fix that.” “Doped,” surmised. Gardiner. “Just that. Morphine from the medicine case. And we’ll feed Davenport a little of the same.” “Chief, you're a wonder! You think of everything!” cried Gar diner admiringly. I’d suggest you tie him up after he goes under or he’ll likely iraise hell when ’ he comes to.” “I expect to,” said Grimstead. “Look out; here they come! You understand your job and remem ber, it’s the biggest stake in tho world!” CHAPTER XX I Punketty-Snivvel’s Revenge Events ran smoothly along the plan laid out for them by the pir ate 'Chief. Burton and Davenport returned shortly to the campfire. At a suitable time a night-cap was proposed and drunk. Soon after, with Burton in her darkened tent and Davenport deep in stupoi', \ the conspirators had the place to themselves. ’ . Silence rushed in upon the dy ing clatter as into a vacuum. Gardiner paused long enough to look in on Simmins. That wor thy had not stirred. It was the work of but a few moments more to .reinstall Dav enport’s strange storage battery in the other car. Gardiner found the engine much more flexible than any gas oline car he had ever driven. For « fow minutes he amused himself by bringing it almost to a stop and then picking up smoothly and positively iby merely opening the throttle. Ho then started out and settled down to the sheer pleas ure of driving as fast as his skill would permit. He was a good driver, and he understood well how to pick up on the straightaways and just how much to check at the curves. And he was a safe driver, as gen uine skill is usually safe. But Gardiner was not alone in the car. No less a personage than Punketty-Snivvels occupied tho seat next him, but the little dog’s protective coloration had concealed him from Gardiner’s ering little dog., Then ho .look ed back to the front. . • Before him yawned ail abyss. Tho bridge had been, carried a-; way by the flood! Even while he reached .for tho brake his brain photographed clearly the jagged edges of the bridge, the opposite bank' picked out clearly by .the lights, and dimly far below a white and phos- phorecent tumble, of waters hos- tening to the sea. . The brakes checked the mom entum almost but not quite en ough. The car slowed, ran off the edge,, seemed for an instant to hover right side up like a bird. Then down it plunged and the foaming, turbulent waters seized it and bore it shouting away.

He was first a We know of Paul Revere from uoldier, no.4t a silver engraver, iii.4 midnight ride, but many do brass founder, castor of bells, ot know that he was ajnuster copper plate engraver, picture fi'ame carver, manufacturer of dies, maker of paper money for the Continental Congress, gold smith, and engraver of music. As, a side line he sold, in a shop, .iowolry, false teeth, and picture frames. He was a member of the Sons of Liberty and an accomp lished horseman. Nearly all of tho silverware nany other articles of tableware, made by Revere, like that of most of the New fingland silversmiths, had a lightness that the pieces of plate made in New York undpr Dutch tradition lacked. All Col onial silver, and this includes ex cellent examples made in Phila delphia, carried an air of simnli- inpnlitnn Museum. All visitors city in line and decoration that was markedly difTerent from some of the highly decorated silver ware which our forefathers brought with them from England. The early American had no liking raft of silver working should | for ornateuMs; furthermore, he inive been in such a high state of was not wealthy enough to pay lerfeetion in the Colonial days. | for this elaborate work. Spoons, ftVe read that this art was prac- ’ ' • - • ■ - }iced in the Colonies at an early l)eriod, in fact only twenty-five years after the landing of the S'Mayflower.” Of course, these )f the silversmith art. Even to Lhis day his handiwork is an in spiration of beauty and simplicity :o designers. The work he has eft behind, pieces bearing his nark, compare very well with the ,vovk of the best craftsman of his I'iiy in England. Among his works wero tank- rda, teapots, .jugs, bowls, and ■Jvery one of them embodies .a are taste in line and form which lur modern dosigner.s arc using, teuently the writer saw on Fifth \venue. Now York City, a silver ea set copied from the Piuil Ro- ,'ere set which is now in the Me- |to this museum should make it a j)oint to see the silverware of this B'amous eraftsman, there preserv- pd for future generations. It may seem unusual, that the knive.s, and forks made from melt ed silver were as light as feath ers. The writer pos.sesses a poon made ii'om melted silver which her great-grandfather had larly craftsmen must have had | made to order in Philadelphia, nany trades at hand in order to arn a living for not all the poo- )le could afford silverware. ' In itles, however, like Boston, Phil- idelphia, and New York there .vas much activity in the making )f silver tableware. Doubtless ho first examples of silverware )roducod in the new country were iomo of those cjuaint thin spoons, he easiest kind to make. Ibston was far ahead of New ork in the making of silverware n the seventeenth century. The >ulch in Now York wore rather if an agricultural or commercial urn of miiul. When the English ook over the New Amsterdam "olony in 1664, they knew they lyere acquiring a trading post for urs and a seaport for the Dutch rading companies. Trade was lainly by barter and silver in tho orm of money, the very essential or the .silversmith’s trade, was ibsent. Some work was done, lowever, of a heavy, substantial Tpe patterned after pieces in tolland, and even after the Eng- ish began to settle in the city, be style in silverware remained Dutch until along in the eigh- etnth century. In the Brooklyn, New York, ^Uuseum may bo seen a silver ankard, the work of a Dutch raftsman by the name of Jacob and it weighs but four ounces. The lack of silver workers in Maryland, Virginia, and the Caro linas is accounted for by the fact that the Cavalier settlers, with a greater symjiathy for the Moth er country and her customs, im ported most of their ware. When one examines a piece of Colonial silver, ono is struck by the architectural quality of its moldings. One famous artist has j)ointed out how true to the clas sic forms of molding used, in ar chitecture aro many of these de tails. Take one of these old pieces and examine it carefully. The gleam of the silver general ly obscures thesfi small forms that one finds as rims on the top of a piece or as part of the base; but close inspection discloses that the makers of this early ware were not only craftsmen of good taste, but also men who knew consider able about the traditional form of architecture of the classic Roman or Renaissance periods. The straight sides of 'a tankard, for instance, spring out of the molding at the base, or the pure ly Greeian quality of the curve to a bowl show that the work is not the product of a mere apprentice. As these silversniitha had not visited old museums in the coun tries of Europe, we realize they SOOmERN eANK ü TRUST' CO. DISCONTIIIUES О Р Ш ! At a meeting of the directors of the Southern Bank and Trust Company held last night it wa.s decided by a unanimous votes 'of the directors present to discontinue the operations of the bank in view of unfavor able conditions that have been encountered for several monihs past. We understand that the corporation vdll voluntarily dissolve af ter paying its depositors and creditors ONE HUNDRED CENTS ON THE DOLLAR. With the passing of the Southern Bank and Trust Company, Mocksville and Davie County lose one of their most valuable institutions. Commencing business about five years ago under the management of A. A. Holleman the bank functioned well as an, asset to the farmers and business men of Mocksville and Davie County. The action taken last night by the board of directors must be construed as a wise step, the purpose being to discontinue operations before the bank should become faced with insolvency. As we understand it arrangements have been made that meet with the approval of the cor)>oration com mittee for complete dissolution of the bank and the liquidation of its affairs without a penny loss to a single depositor.

FARMALL TALKS TO DiAVIE FARMERS John D. Rockefeller thinks tho modern , newspaper is doing a "fine and glorious work in a con structive way.” In a recent interview, Mr. Roekefl'ller said, "I can see a great improvement in the news paper profession in the last few years that is very encouraging. “It used to be that newspapers took a great delight in being an tagonistic, but it seems that they have changed their policies and are doing fine and glorious work in a constructive way. Of course there are still some that harp and nag and find fault and criticize, but I think that most of them are getting ovor that.” D O D G E l’N afEA SES NEW SPAPER SPACE THE COMMISSION BARN Dodge Brothers’ investment in newspaper advertising in 1928 will represent a 30 per cent in crease over last year, which was the largest, in the history of the company, according to G’eorge Harrison Phelps, Inc., advertis ing agents of Detroit. Newsjiaper ’advertising of Dodge Brothers in January shows as 85 per cent Increase over the advertising for the same month last year. Charlotte Observer. Mockaville, the fast-developing Capital of Davie county, makes boast of an institution worth while. It is a Commission Barn with Live Stock Yard attached, the only thing of the kind “in North Carolina.” The Mocksville Enterprise gives credit to W. R. Clement. The barn is "well- lighted,” electrically, and is mod- ernly equipped, and carries on business during the night as well as by day. At this Commission Barn live stock sales are conduct ed on the last Tuesday of each month and draw stock buyers “from all over the United States.” A jjavillion is provided so that sales can be made any day,' rain or shine. The undertaking on part of Mr. Clement is to make Mocksville the “live stock center” of the State, and that is a worthy ambition. LINDY TURNS UP IN GO'l’HAM Curtis Field, N.

Cooperative Order Be Made For Davie Seed Farmers Free Marbles To School Boys NOW IS TflE TIME TO PRUNE AND SPUAY FRUIT TREES • This is the last week of the season for pruning and spraying fruit trees. The San Jose scale is one of the most serious insects 01 tile peach. This scale is quite small, little if any larger than the point of a lead pencil. This scale ia grayish in color,, circular in outline, somewhat convex, and with a nipple like prominene in the center. When 'a tree is heavf- ly infested with the insects it presents a ashy gray appearance. To control this insect it is rieces- aary to spray during the dormant season. This should consist of the following home made Concen trated lime sulphur spray: Flours of sulphur 14 lb Stone lime 12 lb and water 50 gallons. The sul phur is made into a thin paste with water. The lime Is then adr . ded and more water added gradu- spending your money for same. We have thousands of m arbles, that we are going to give to th© school boys, and girls, too, if they want them, within the next fevr. days. Now these are very pretty- marbles and every boy in Davi» county will be proud to own a. half hundred or more which w» are going to give you. Now w t N.’ant all tho boys who would like to have at least fifty of these pretty marbles to call .at our ofllce any afternoon this week and let us explain our proposition to you. You can got fifty or more for just a few minutes of your time, possibly not over five minu tes of very pleasant work for you' to do. But it is not hard work either, 'and you will not have to ispend any of Uncle Sam’s good hard money. Oh, gee, won’t that be an easy way for you to get your supply of marbles without ally as the Ifmc slakes. As soon as the lime finishes slaking the mixture is cooked in some con venient boiler for about an hour. It is best to ad water enough to keep the mixture up to about 12 gallons. This mixture is made up to about 50 gallons with water, strained into the spray tank, and applied to the trees warm. This same spray will help control the ioaf cury which'was serious in this season last season. I shall be glad to help anyone with their spraying or pruning. Lets get this done before it is too late. Other articles will appear In this paper later on when it is time, to put on ^ spray. W. P. YOUNG, Agr. teacher.
