Ser geant Ingle was so convinced that 'the hams were stolen that he «allet the Sheriff of Watauga county and asked if he had any r^ort of hams being stolen. The reply was that no such report had been received and Sergeant Ingle Insisted that inquiry be made in the Vilas community to learn if any hams bad been stol en. The sheriff went to iCoy Bil- Uags' store at Vilas and asked if any hams had been stolen. Mr. Billings first said "no” but de cided to take a precautionary look Into the rear of his store. There he found the windows broken out and 20 hams gone. Mr. Billings, who is a memoer of Watauga county’s board tf commissioners, showed his aprv’'e- elation of the good -work on the part of the officers by giving t)ien)'one of the recovered hams». which has 'been divided among Sergeant Ingle, 'Patrolman Honey* cutt and Policeman Horton. ^CalMdar^ n* ’Wtmatm’w Wmtmiarf etetgr of the WlXkesbona 41ia. dinivtdi wiH meet Tnegda; aftomoos at’S o'clock tit i She hciM or lifB: IVanMr lUltar. c.- tU FrihMiy ONiiD o^ the WOkmibeag Dfetlwdtot dwMh ■aeeb VMaiagr ewawtag ag TtWI o'clock B*''tlie hMBO .of '’Ifisa Batty gcmew mitnim, 3m I/—Tam Bowie, 'sMtdy laiown at the "Lton X' of a« Moaatalaa^.wlio dominated Ashe county pt^ca and occupied a "apotllglit In >1 the State ton- a.

Akim Tamiroff Is Shot (by Camera) In “Hobo Jungle »» During the filming of Para- mouiU’® dramatic picture, “The Way of All Flesh,” which Is sche duled to open at the Liberty Theatre on ’Tuesday only, thu script called for a number of Im portant sequences to be shot In a '’hobo Jungle,’’ one of those camps that comprise the only homes available to the legion of peregri nating tramps who roam the country from coast to coast fol lowing the railroads, their usual medium of transportation. While plans were being discuss ed to build such a camp In the studio, location men ran across a real one just outside Chatsworth, California, so the .players who were to appear in these scenes were taken there for the shots. Initial attempts to persuade the hoboes to evacuate their jun gle, even temporarily, met with flat refusals. Their dinner—a mess of fish, frying on discarded automobile license plates being the entree, with vegetable soup in a scoured-out five-gallon gas oline can as an added attraction was just ready to be consumed, the biggest moment in their day. But when Director Louis King dangled so.me real “folding mon ey’’ before their eyes, they eager ly capitulated, and agreed to throw In the cooking food as props, for good measure. But they stuck around just outside the camera range, vastly interested In seeing, for the first time, a movie being made. “The Way of All Flesh,” Is a ^werful and human drama of regeneration through sacrifice, in which Akim Tamiroff gives one of the finest characterizations of his career. following children: Foster, North Wllkesboro; Mrs. Norman Lee Barr, Boston, Mass.; Raymond C.

Vestal, W. H. Hardy, N. C. Spoas, and E. S. Welborn, directors of the Winston-Salem Production Credit Association, will attend a meeting of direc tors of production credit associa tions to be held at Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, on July 10-11-12. Each summer group meetings of production credit association directors are held at which prob lems common to all of them are discussed. These meetings have been held annually since 1934 and by the exchange of Ideas all of the associations profit. The directors are the men who guide the destines of the produc tion credit associations. The suc cess’or failure of an association depends largely upon them. Each and every one has Its problems. What may be a problem at the present time to one may have at one time been a problem to an other but has been solved by it. A discussion of problems by the di rectors of various assoclatious thus proves mutually helpful. Directors of a number of as sociations attend each of the group conferences. At the meet ings this year In addition to a general discussion of problems, there will be a discussion of effi cient operations of an association by representatives of the Produc tion Credit Corporation of Co lumbia. A special effort Is being made this year to have a 100 per cent attendance of directors of all pro- city, duction credit associations In the third Farm Credit district, com prising the states of No»th Car olina, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida, at the group confer ences. Group conferences are held In all of the twelve Farm Credit districts In the United States each year and a careful record Is made ot the number of directors at tending In each district by the Farm Credit Administration at Washington. This year this district hopes to lead all others In the percentage of directors present at the confer ences. Reports from over the district this year indicate that the direc tors are planning to attend prac tically 100 per cent. Mr. Vestal lives at Moravian Falls. N. C.;. IMr. Hardy, SUoam, N.‘.
