I actually be lieve this wonderful medicine has added years to my life. “For fifive years my health had been failing steadily. My -nerves were all to pieces, and I hardly knew what a sound night’s sleep meant. “Since taking the Sargon treat ment I feel as well and strong as I was 25 years ago.

CHEVROLET LOW PRICES Because of the popular nation wide reception of the new Chevro let Six at lower prices, the Chevro let Motor Company is preparing for a volume of business in 1930 that promises to break all records of the company. Confidence over the out look for a banner Chevrolet year is widespread in the factory and dealer organisations. This is the statement of J. L. Bankhead, local Chevrolet dealer, who has just returned from Char lotte where he attended the mam moth banquet. I “Under the direction of H. J.

The teller has on light green socks. * “I’m a stranger In town and I was wondering if you would— I “Yes, yes. I can take care of you right here.

One letter however lias come to our tension witch seems like it hares repeating and I will take the pains to copy it down liere and also grant the*, writer’s request in part which she wrote in the letter as follows: “Ring School of Photo Play Write ing., Great Neck, L. 1., “Madame; 1 seen in the paper where you were going to learn the people to write photo plays and you give a sample in the same paper of a 1 reel comedy as it should be wrote witch convinced me that you got the 1 reel comedy game down to a silence. Well honey I have always wanted to nose into the photo play writeing game and earn a bbl. of jack dureing my loose time, but my* mind never runs to comedys. My life inis been a sad one as 1 am married to a wid ower 3 mos. old With a large brood of children over which I spent most ts my time brooding over them. It looks to me like if 1 knew the technic and how to put my sour thoughts down on paper they would make a ideal photo urrrma hut as I say I don’t know anything about construction, and etc., so I wish you would write a serious 5 reel drama without no monkey business about it and if you do as well with it as you have done with the comedy 1 will be glad to sub scribe to the Coarse and all that goes with it. "* —WEEPING WILLIE.” Miss Willie seems to have the proper mental pose to knock them hag gard as a author of heart int. drama and 1 may as well also say that she . chose, the best held, as not only is serious 5 reel plays a whole lot easier to write than a comedy but producers also offers 5 and 6 times as much money for them and in rare instants pays better than % of 1 . per cent of what you think you got comeing. Well then the necessary items in a 5 reel drool is (1) a suggestive title (2) heart int. (3) suggestive sub titles (4) a pop eyed girl with loose tear ducks (5 a couple villains and (6) a chorus man that can knock them dead. The scenes should ought to* be lain out west in some wild rough mining country like New Jer sey. ♦ For this model reel we will take the title “Why Girls Snore”, and the locale Li Muskegon, Mich.

Rol lins, of Hamlet, was a recent visi tor to Sanford. Mr. Rollins in dis cussing old times with some of his former friends here, says that his father, the late Thomas Rollins, was first 1 postmaster at Jonesboro and also at Sanford. He was ap pointed postmaster of Jonesboro in 1865 when the office was establish ed there. A little later, when the Raleigh and Augusta Airline Rail road, now the Seaboard Air Line, 'built the village of Sanford, two miles north of Jonesboro, came into being, but the postoffice at Jonesboro served both communities. There was a conflict between the citizens of these two villages as to which should have the postoffice and it was moved back and for wards between the places several times. Mr. Rollins says that when he was transferred at various times he walked the distance between the two places, and carried the entire equipment. Finally two postoffices were established and Mr. Rollins was postmaster in Sanford and ‘ the late Sion H. Buchanan became post master in Jonesboro.

From the time when the first Camel Cigarette was made that one idea has set Camel apart. mm A policy of better tobaccos, combined in an incomparable blend, manufactured with the most exacting care—all to lim assure the utmost pleasure in smoking. That is the ideal and the practice back of every package of Camel Cigarettes. It has made Camel the most popular cigarette ever known. More millions have chosen Camels for smoking pleasure than ever accorded their patronage to any other cigarette. Camels 1 " for m - 1 ' ~* ... M.i l .) ..r' M *- { ."J t.

Brown, who was postmaster until 1876, when H. T. Rollins was appoifited ' p'ostmaster and served until 1879 when he became postal agent on the Raleigh and Augusta Railroad, serving in that capacity for many years. Possibly Mr. Rollins and W. T. Buchanan who was a merchant here at that time, and who is still en gaged in business here are the only two persons living who were in Sanford when the town was founded. The first railroad that was con structed in this territory was the old Western railroad which was built from Fayetteville to the Deep river coal fields in order to haul the coal to Fayetteville. Before that it was conveyed by boats and barges to Wilmington to be used for the Confederate navy. This road became a part of the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley railroad which later went in the hands of the receiver. » The Southern pur chased the portion from Sanford to Mount Airy, and the Atlantic Coast Line purchased the portion from Sanford to Wilmington.
