New Business
Is Introduced
j
In This Locality
Art Bailey of Spruce Pine and
J. B. Miller of Boone are en
thusiastic about a new cleaning
service they are introducing in
the Boone area this week.
The service ? a powerful va
cuum system ? is designed for
just about every cleaning task
that's likely to appear in homes,
business buildings, warehouses
and commercial enterprises, the
business partners say.
Its most practical application
at this time of year is the clean
ing of home furnaces and heat
ing systems, they think, and
they point out that only during
the weeks when heating systems
are idle can effective cleaning
be done.
A unique advantage of the
new cleaning system is its com
pactness. It is a self-contained
unit, mounted on a medium
weight truck, and can operate
anywhere that the truck can be
parked, since no outside bags or
equipment are required.
Specially designed attach
ments make it adaptable to al
most any cleaning job, its oper
ators say, or as Miller puts it,
"We could move into the big
gest tobacco warehouse in
Boone and whisk it clean as eas
ily as the maid can do the sit
ting room."

Assembly Lauds
Sen. Johnston
In Resolution
Kaleigh. ? A resolution prais
ing State Senator Ira T. Johns
ton of Ashe for his service In
the General Assembly, es^ci
ally his work in behalf of ab
sentee-ballot reforms, was pass
ed by the Senate last week.
Senator Gordon Hanes of
Forsyth put in the resolution
honoring the Jefferson lawyer,
who is ill in Baptist Hospital at
Winston-Salem a&J is not ex
pected to return to Raleigh be
fore the Legislature adjourns
this month.
Although not mentioning spe
cifically Johnston's role ia the
fight to curb absentee-ballot
abuses, the resolution said the
Ashe legislator "has had the
broad vision and courage to take
a position of leadership on an
issue of vital consequence to
the whole state. .
It aaid Johnston did this
"even though he had reason to
believe thst such position would
not meet with the immediate
and universal approval of his
friends and neighbors.
Johnston helped hammer out
a compromise bill to tighten
absentee-voting restrictions. He
was regarded as the key figure
in getting mountain legislators
whose counties have been the
hotbeds of absentee ? ballot
scandals to agree to a reform
bill.
The resolution further states
that Johnston's shadow "like a
small wind-blown mountain pine
at sunset, has loomed dispropor
tinately large in this body."
It conveys to his wife and
family "the knowledge that we
share with each of them their
affection and concern" and says
to his constituents "that not
only were they ably represent
ed while he was present, but
also that because of his influ
ence they are not unrepresented
in his absence."

title bestowed on pretty Peg

Billy Graham Film
Will Be Shown Here
Evangelist Billy Graham's
newest feature-length dramatic
film, "Shadow of the Boomer
ang," will have its Boone show
ing June 22, at 7:30 p. m. at
the First Baptist Church In
Boone.
Starring vivacious Georgia
Lee and television's Buffalo
Bill, Jr., Dick Jones, "Shadow
of the Boomerang' 'is an out
door action picture with all the
excitement and breath-taking
scope of the land, "Down Un
der." Setting for the screen
drama is Australia's "Outback,"
the continent's vast interior re
gion where some of the world's
largest cattle stations art lo
cated.
The two young Americans
head an All-Australian support
ing cast, playing brother and
sister roles in a turbulent ktory
of homestead life. Their arrival
ity, Australia to manage newly
acquired family holdings,
plunges the couple into strange
surroundings and situations
with which they find it diffi
cult to cope. The brother is im
mature and impetuous, slow to
accept Australian ways. His sis
ter is much more democratic,
readily accepted by her new
friends with whom she joins in
an attempt to instill understand
ing and tolerance in her po
ther.
The new picture will be
shown free of charge under the
auspices of the Billy Graham
Evangelistic Film Ministry.

Brief Neies Items
REFRIGERATOR KILLS MAN

Bourie, 95, was killed by a re
frigerator falling on him.

of a pick-up truck with the re
frigerator when the driver
started up a steep incline.

FARM SUBSIDIES RAISED

Committee aproved a multi-mil
lion dollar agriculture money
bill that would increase subsid
ies for farmers.
FHtEMAN'S POLE MUST GO
Tulsa, Okla. ? Firemen at the
new central fire station will
not have a pole to slide down
when called to a fire. Too many
firemen have been hurt sliding
down and living quarters were
moved to the first floor.
G. L. Sartain, fire chief, said
living quarters on the second
floor and the pole originated in
the days when horses lived on
the first floor.
There can be no cooperation
between men or nations, if one
gives orders that others must
follow.
Making money easy is the
hard way.
