SUnSCKlPTION One Year $1.00; 6 M)iith.s 50c Entered as second-class matter July >1, 1020, at the po.st office at Selma, N. C. under the Act of March 3, 1870. YOU EVER STOP THINK WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE? Circle “B” Entertained THE SELMA PRESBYTERIAN DID TO p-y IHISON R. VVAITE .Shawnee, Oklahoma Harmony can do wonderful thin? for nome cities. Advertising a city is a business- not child’s play. People will go mile- to get to good, live city to trade. No advertising gives as quick re turns as newspaper advertising. Business come.s where it is invit ed and stays where it is well treat ed. The city which does not seek something better than it now ha.s is going to lose out. * * * « A glance^ through the advertis ing columns of your newspaper en ables you to tell in a few minutes all you want to know, and where to get the service or articles you may need. 4c >|c * ^ ' Some cities are order takers; they take what come to them. Other cities are order getters; they make up their mind what their city needs and then go after it until they get it. DO ADVERTI?^ED PRODUCTS COST MORE? A new-study of the consumer coats of advertising shows that the efficient advertiser is able to deliv er his goods at a lower cost than the merchant who does not advertise. The editor of the Woman’s Home Companion, summing up this study, remarks: “Paradoxical as it may seem, there is no doubt that good advertising, while it is of course included in the final cost you pay for a product, does not raise that price. It actually reduces the price below what you would have to pay for the same article unadvertised.’’ GOOD OLD COTTON “Cotton is king” of the textiles just as it was when James Henry Hammond referred to it as such in the United States Senate in 1858. ]t took a good many years for the cotton mills to learn that textiles should be classified, and the dif ferent grades of textiles specified. But that was accomplished by iicientific proce'ses of mercerizing- and the selection of the best pro ducts of the cotton fields. As a result the American public has learned that just as there are different grades of corn ,wheat and other agricultural products, so are there variations of grades of cot ton. So .it has come about that cot ton appears on the backs and legs of some of the best dressers in the country, and the prejudice again.st cotton goods has largely disappear ed for the very good reason that mercerized cotton makes up so hand somely that it is reasonably to be lieve the admis'ion of a prominent writer upon textiles that “nobody knows the difference.” Anyhow, Mrs. Hoover and Mrs. Coolidge wore cotton on many state occasions, and as the new First Lady of the Land is noted for her progressive attitude in standing by American products it is certain that it will not be long before she does fiomething to advance the cause of the cotton producers. SCIENCE KEEPS MOVING A recent paper is.sued by the Illi nois Medical Association copies of which have been received by Gov ernment Departments in Washington shows the discovery that evaporated milk is an excellent prescription for treatment of ulcer patients. This has opened a new and wide u-^e for the product of “contented cows.” This means, of course, that those patients who were unable to take the usual treatment of raw- milk and cream, can stil use milk in another form. Evaporated milk, the medical pro fession has found, leaves no irrita ting effect of free fatty acids, is more easily digested than raw or pasteurized milk and its curd is softer and mdre flocculent. It was called to my attention last Sunday morning that C. A. Jacobs had become interested in the town election just ahead of us and had gone to Smithfield and secured a record of the checks issued under orders of officials of certain relief programs instituted under the reign ' of Mr. Hoover and said checks hav ing been widely di.stributed under certain regulations throughout the entire United States for the direct benefit of the unfortunate and those not able to obtain work dui-ing the socalled Hoover panic. 1 have been informed that his motive was to attempt to show that the money had not been properly- distributed in this locality and if possible to find some irregularity to broadcast same to the folks to the end that the Honorable W. W. Hare might have to suffer politically. In carrying out this plan, I am inform ed by reliable people that he ran across a check made payable to Mrs E. G. Hobbs in the amount of $2.00 and ran back over here and stated that she had applied for relief or some fool statement similar to that. The facts about the check are as follows: A certain poor negro man with nine children came by the house Christmas and told Mrs. Hobbs that he understood that she had a stove to sell. She showed him the stove and they agreed upon a price which was $2.00. The negro inform ed Mrs. Hobbs that Brother Single- ton would stand for the stove and Brother Singleton gave the negro a note certifying that he, as head of the relief organization, would see that the money would be paid. After the negro had performed certain work. Brother Singleton issued an order, as a re-ult of said order one check was issued made payable to Mrs. E. G. Hobbs, said check being dated December 30, 1932. Now 1 do not object to Mr. Jacobs running his mouth just as much as he de sires but if he does not know that it is bad bu'iness to circulate false statements on innocent ladies, 1 will have to find it necessary to take time out to teach him a lesson if he admits to me my wife had ap plied for relief and had received I money from the relief board. I do not know whether Mr. Hare will be re-elected mayor again but I do know that I have always found Mr. Hare to be a gentleman and capable of handling the affairs of the Town of Selma as well as any man I know of in Selma. And J say this without regard to how C. A. Jacobs feels about it for person ally, I don’t care a tinkers damn how Jacobs feels about anything or any of my friends. And the only- purpose of this statement is to keep the record straight. As far as I know the relief fund allotted to Selma has been handled ju't right. And if Mr. Jacobs is against the way it has been handled he has the right to kick as long as he does not involve the right.s of other folks. Mr. Jacobs has been drawing re lief from the United States Govern ment for a great many months through the Veterans Administration. He comes under the law passed in 1930 allowing certain veterans so much per month for certain dis abilities not contracted in the service of the United States forces in time of war. He has a rating, I am in formed, of 50 per cent non-service connected disability and this rating- carries with it a payment of $18.00 per month to the veteran. I hold that if Mr. Jacobs is entitled to $18.00 per month from the Govern ment, certainly the people who have found it hard to live and were hungry until March 4th, 1933 should be entitled to some consideration; and it must be remembered that Mr. Jacobs was one of these Hoover- crats. 1 am sorry that it is necessary to make this .statement but upon clo=e investigation, 1 found that this false report had been widely circulated by certain people. I am far from being on the charity list and if it should become necessary for my wife to get any relief, she has people in Ashe ville and other points who are blessed with much of this worlds goods. Mr. Hare will never be w-hipped for Mayor by those interested in circulating false statements concern ing his office. Personally, I have a high opinion of Mr. Hare and every member of his board; including Mr. Wall who keeps the records. Miss Ellen Talton, Mrs. Ida Sher- i-on and Mrs. Joseph Peedin were joint hostesses to the members of Circle “B” Tuesday evening at the home of Miss Talton. Mrs. W. D. Fields presided over the busine.-s period and good reports were heard from all groups in the Circle, $100. was paid by this circle on the -church indebtedness. Two very uniefue contests had been arranged by the hostesses, Mr-;. W. D. Fields was winner in the 'first and Mrs. J. T. Hughes in the second, each was given an appro priate prize, Mrs. W. A. Nordan re ceived the consolation prize. The hostesses served congealed fruit cup topped with whipped cream and cherry and wafers. The next regular meeting will be held Tuesday night, April 18th with Mrs. Oscar Creech and Mrs. Her bert White, hostesses. Selma Church 11:00 a. m. Sunday school 10:00 a. m.

Everyone accepts the fact that Bayer Aspirin is the swiftest form of relief for headaches, neuralgia, neuritis, periodic pain, and other suffering. If you've tried it, you know. But no one need hesitate td take these tablets because of their speed. They (ire perfectly safe. They will not dejircss the heart. They have no ill effect of any kind. The rapid relief they bring is due to the rapidity with which they dissolve. So, keep these tablets handy, and keep your engagements—free from pain or discomfort. Carry the pocket tin for emergencies; buy the bottle of 100 for its economy. The new reduced price has removed the last reason for trying any substitute for genuine Bayer Aspirin—each tablet kamped with this cross: NOTICE OF SALE NOTICE OF SALE OF REAL ESTATE.
