for all good men to come to the aid
of the part?.
I feel my countrymen that the ccun

services of all the great orators, there
fore, I am heeding the call and will
mount the stump next week.
Thoee of you who have not heard

TOBACCO PRICES
ARE ADVANCING
LouMiurg Market Getting Ilnwa To
Pretty Good Start Off; Fair Sales
At All Hoasea
It was encouraging to note the ad
vance In prices for tobacco being paid
on the Louisburg market this week.
Other buyers became active and more
life wag injec'ed into the sales.
Many growers visited the market
the past week, most of whom made
very satisfactory sales considering the j
low trend of tobacco prices and qual. I
lty. I
It is conceded that tobacco is off
full two to four cents a pound in j
o.uaiity from the crop of 1927, yet the j
figures show that the Louisburg mark >
et has already sold approximately 30,.'
000 pounds more than at the same
time last year and the prices paid
is only an average of $1.30 per hun.
died less.
With the advance in price more tff
bacco is coming to Louisburg and
the entire town and county is enthus
iastic that the market will exceed Its
expectations of more than eight mil
lion pounds this season.

Here Gomes Arabella To Be
Given At Bimn High School
If you like a thrill, a heart throh,
& side busting laugh, and good sing
ing, come to see "Here Comes Ara
bella," given at the Bunn High School
auditorium Tuesday evening, October
2, at 8 p. m.
Arebella, who was stolen from the
j orphan asylum when she was a baby,
and who is now dressed as a little
; ragged gypsy girl, enters the studio
'c:' Bob Adair, a struggling young ar
tist. Bob sees something in her
which he misses in the flappers who
have been chasing him. He falls for
her, and since he doesn't want her
living around the Wrest in Gypsy
land, he sends her to his two old
maid aunts without her knowing his
name, or his relations to the two old
maids. They receive her with much
coolness, but their brother. Uncle
Josh, takes her in.
i -Young Bob, now dressed in civilian
clothes, and who looks very different.,
ly from what he did in his studio at.
tire, visits his two old maid aunts with
his contribution to the Aid Society.
Arabella falls for this man also, who
'she thought was a different man. Yet,
j she remembers her promise to the
young artist that she will be true to
him.
It is complicating, come and see the
end. ?
Quite A Difference In Prices
That there is quite a difference in
the price of brandy and whiskey today
and in 1848 will be seen from the fol
i lowing flgures given to the?TIMES
by Mr. M. S. Clifton, administrator of
.the estate of Mr. R. T. Clifton. The
figures were found in some of the old
papers belonging to the estate of
i Wiley Clifton. On May 31, 1848, twen
: ty.flve gallons of brandy was sold
for 49 cents a gallon and sixty.eight
gallons of whiskey for 38 and 39
cents a -gallon. In November of the
same year seventy-one gallons of
brandy was sold for 34 cents a gal
lon.
i It might be stated that in these
. days brandy was brandy and whiskey
j was whiskey, not imitations as they
are today. >
