Work is progressing finely on the Geddie Fields brick building here. Give Geddie a half-chance and he would make a town of Pittsboro. The addition to the -silk mill plant is completed. When the additional machines are installed it will mean work and a greater payroll. Rev. George R. Underwood, who has been very seriously ill and in a Sanford hospital for treatment, has recuperated sufficiently to be brought home Monday. Mrs. Under wood, it is understood, remained in Sanford in touch with her husband during his stay in the hospital. Mr. Chaffin, an engineer of San- i ord, was here Monday with a view to securing either the supervision of the street work to b$ done here or perhaps to put in a bid for the con tract with the possibility of perform ing both duties, that of contractor and of engineer. A thief cut his way into Mr. R. M. Connell’s store on highway 93 one night last week and got four hams, a barrell of flour, candy,etc. The next night a ham was stolen from the smokehouse. Sections of the county have been too wet for ploughing for the past two weeks with the exception of possibly a day or two. Big rains from Bynum eastward the first of last week, and a latter one that week, and then a general rain Sunday night have put the farmers in that section in a bad plight. Hail also injured some crops the first of last week in the Bynum section. Mr. Robert Connell is spending a few days with his brother William in Washington, D. C. Messrs. Preston Carter and Sid Jordan, who have been located at Roxboro and employed in mainte nance of state highways, are assign ed to the Pittsboro district and will move here immediately. Mrs. R. H.

Burns of Roxboro and Mrs. Norris of Raleigh. The latter will spend the summer here with her mother. Mess’s. Hall arid Riggsbee are working day and late into the night in preparing for the opening of the Ben Franklin store, but the task is too great for them to get ready for the opening next Saturday. Hence, it is postponed a week. Look next for an announcement of opening. It will be a real store. Miss Olivia Harmon is home from Radcliffe, Boston, for the summer. The young lady is getting close to her Ph. D. degree. •: Miss Lina Burnett Moore of Bynum is spending the week with Mrs. Ed. Hinton. Messrs. Harry Norwood, George Brooks, Jeter Griffin; and R. S. Thompson attended a Masonic meet ing at Oxford Tuesday. i Miss Irene Moore, who holds a position with the American Bank ing and Trust Company of Charlotte, is visiting her sister Mrs. J. S. Waters. Also Mr. Water’s sister Miss Marguerite Waters, who has been visiting her brother, will remain till the fall and attend the teachers’ training class. Mr. and Mrs. W. P.

FQgi em a n near Staley. Rain Sunday night and Tuesday night delays farming operations. Some sections of the county have been without an opportunity to plough for more than three days in three weeks. The crop situation again ' looks' globmy. • ■ * $ Each summer night may be calm, peaceful, undisturbed. Just bv using FLY-TOX. Spraying the sleeping rooms. Killing the mosquitoes. Ev eryone knows mosquitoes are disease carriers. They must be killed. Health authorities advocate FLY-TOX. It is the scientific insecticide developed at Mellon Institute of Industrial Re search by Rex Research Fellowship. Simple instructions on each bottle (blue label) for killing ALL house hold insects. INSIST on FLY-TOX. It is safe, stainless, and has a per fume-like fragrance.—Adv. IS EASY (Elizabeth City Advance) Catching up on the reading of some of our exchanges that stacked up on us during the press conven tion, we find the Gastonia Gazette at a loss to understand why the Estate press as a whole seemed less stirred by the shooting down of a police chief in Gastonia than by the destruction last April of the pro perty of Gastonia strikers. The explanation is easy. It is found, indeed, in the very issue and in the same column in which the query is propounded. There were 5 persons in jail charged with complicity in the murder of the Gastonia police chief. There was never an arrest made, if our memo ry does not fail us, following the destruction of the strickers’ pro perty. Certainly nothing of any con sequence was ever done about it. Not the crime of the killing of a police chief the crime of the destruction of the strickers’ pro perty is the issue but the indiffer ence to crime on the part of those charged with enforcing it in the April instance as compared with the prompt jailing of more than three score charged with complicity in- the shooting of a police chief some two months later—that is the question. In the •; first instance, crime was going unpunished. In the second, crime had been followed by vigorous action by the authorities. It was the first case, therefore, that was unusual in North Carolina and that called for vigorous expressions from the State press. <S> . , German engineers are testing a light ray safety control system for railroads. ® . , —LET— GOLDSTON BROTHERS Sell Your Land Phone, Write or Wire Today GOLDSTON, N.
