THURSDAY. APRIL 24. 1030. f CAROLINIANS—KIOW Your State! m) COPYRICHT 1930 BY BOYCE & RANKIN • ' ■■ ' l>n 'I I I*WMH M**WW> (mill I H !■ I||l IB»"^«W>WWWI>WBWWWP^WWWWWWWHpWWW—W«MWM—WWMWWMIMMWIIWBM^IIMM"——* 4 m , PICTURE OF NORTH CAROLINA GAZETTE, NEW BERN THE FIRST newspaper published in North Carolina was established in 1755 at New Bern by James Davis. The paper was called “The North Carolina Gazette.” During the Revolution printing of papers ceased and there is no record of a paper in the State until 1783 when Robert Keith started a weekly paper at New Bern. Keith said the people had learned the “Worth by the Want.” There are now thirty-eight daily and one hundred and sixty three weekly papers in the State. The newspaper of North Carolina through the broadcasting o facts about our State have been instrumental in building up community and State pride. Their public-spiritedness is manifest. The material benefit is negligible to most newspapermen who take special pride in producing a good paper filled with profit able and enoyable information for people of their communities. Large corporations are to day spending millions for newspaper advertising. Retail merchants and small manufac turers are fast realizing that newspaper advertising is a good investment. ************** * TOWN AND * * * * COUNTY BRIEFS * * * *************** r Mrs. F. C. Mann has returned from a visit to her sister, Mrs. Shannon in Washington, D. C., who recently underwent a serious opera tion. Miss Edna Hackney of Bynum, Miss Elizabeth Thomas of Moncure, and Miss Frances Shelton of Siler City are listed among the graduat ing students at North Carolina College for Women this year. Mr. and Mrs. /N. M. Alston of New York visited the latter’s sis ter, Mrs. DeGrafFenreidt, this week. Mr. W. E. Brooks, who closed his school at Hickory Grove, Bear Creek township, last week, is at home and seems to be enjoying chatting with home folks again. Since the list of election officials was prepared for the printer, Mr. Numa Bright has been appointed to fill the vacancy observed in the Oakland list. Mr. Millard Johnson of Siler City R. F. D. No. 4 told us Monday that his son Otto has been seriously ill with pneumonia. Governor Elmer Long and Mrs. Long spent Monday with the lat ter’s sister, Mrs. DeGrafFenreidt, near Pittsboro. Elmer says that our editorial of last week on Sim mons’ relation to the Republican party is unanswerable. Mrs. J. A. Dailey returned from a two weeks’ stay, Tuesday, at Watts’ Hospital, where she under went an operation for tonsilitis and took treatment for other troubles. She is reported much improved. Mr. W. R. Oldham, who is now running a barbershop at Yancey ville, shaved them all up Saturday and spent Sunday and Monday at home here. Last week’s Record started off to Mexico City to visit Mr. and Mrs. S. F. Maddox. Mrs. Maddox, who has returned to Mexico after a visit to relatives in this state, orders to old paper to visit them weekly. Messrs. S. D. Johnson, .R. H- Dixon, Sr. and Jr., and Sheriff J. J- Jenkins attended the Republican convention in Charlotte. Sike John son, Jr., accompanied his father. f DR. J. C. MANN the well-known EYESIGHT SPECIALIST will be at Dr. Farrell’s Office PITTSBORO, TUESDAY, April 22 at Dr. Thomas’ Office SILER CITY, THURSDAY, April 24th . . » Miss Gladys Peterson is visiting her sister, Mrs. N. R. Bass in Wilson county. Mr. and Mrs. F. J. Faison and little daughter of Roseboro. also Mr. and Mrs. Roscoe Bass of Wilson county were with home folk here Sunday. Both Mr. Bass and Mr. Faison report a shortage of tobacco plants in their immediate sections. If our New Hope tobacco growers have spare plants this spring, there will be a market for them in Wil son and Sampson counties. The San ford Express reports also a shortage of plants in Lee. If the shortage should be general, it would prove a fine thing, except for such plant ers as should have entirely too few. Florence Nixon Peoples, the in telligent colored teaeher of Glover Grove colored school in Hickory Mountain township, dlosed , her school last week. She had an enroll ment of only 19, but averaged more than sixteen for the term. She thinks her hoys and girls did well and brags on her second grade class particularly. Officers Lacy Johnson and Wrenn Gilmore arrested Elmer Perry at a still a few days ago and Mr. Perry is under bond for appearance at the next term of court. He was already under a suspended sen tence, which will probably not be much longer suspended. Mr. John son is said to have one of the best farms in his section, and there would seem to be no reason for his engaging in the making of 'liquor. Such men are the ones that should be dosed most heavily. A year or two in the penitentiary will possibly bring him to his senses, and help him to respect the laws of his state. At least, he would be out of the way for a while. There seems to be doubt of his guilt. In fact, when the boys get them, the most of them own up to the corn. Daniel L. Bell has purchased the Anson place, which was renovated a year or two ago by a wealthy couple with the expectation of later moving here. The Bells ex pect to move to their new home soon. It is one of the most de sirable places in Pittsboro and has been thoroughly modernized. Mr. Harvey Gunter is planning to build on the lot recently pur chased on West Street, at the rear of the Blair Hotel. There has probably been as much corn planted in the county as was planted all of last year, when con tinuous rainy weather prevented the planting of much of the land in tended for corn. Interest in the campaign seems rather at a low ebb in Chatham. The county affords only two con tests in the Democratic primary, while Congressman Pou and Solici tor Williams are without opponents. MRS. SMITH DEAD Mrs. Elvina Smith, widow of the late Frank Smith, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Lon Cooper, Wednesday of last week, after an illness of only an hour and a half. The burial was Hanks Chapel Thursday afternoon. Pas tor Brown of the Bynum Metho dist church preached the funeral. Mrs. Smith, however, was a mem ber of Hanks Christian church, is said to have been a most godly woman. She leaves eight children, name ly, Ivey and Neal Smith, of Ala | mance county, Will Smith and Mrs. Lin Cooper of Chatham County, Mont, Albert and Richard Smith of , Durham county, Mrs. Alma Ham , mock of Durham, and Elwood Smith, of the Sanatorium, who is an invalid as a result of his par ticipation in the war. All were present at the funeral except Elwood. > —- If you can’t be a good servant you will not make a good m*s - proverb. CHATHAM RECORD. PITTSBORO, N. C.

Unintentional Suicide . —<§> —- Many people are slowly poison ing themselves just as surely as if they drank iodine every morning ' for breakfast. They are daily ab sorbing the toxins, or poisons, cre ated by accumulated waste matter in their constipated digestive sys tems. Sooner or later disease will conquer their weakened bodies. If you have dizzy spells, head aches, coated tongue, bad breath, insomnia, no appetite, bilious at tacks or pains in the back and limbs, you are probably suffering from self poisoning caused by con stipation. The surest and pleasant est relief for this condition is Herb ine, the vegetable cathartic which acts in the natural way.
