The Castle Construction Company, of Raleigh, has been incorporated to carry on the business of contracting and construction in all its branches. Authorized capital stock, $100,000; subscribed stock, $300.00 by W,_ R, Makepeace, Mable A. Makepeace, of Sanford, and Sam J. Castle, of Raleigh For the next few weeks many San ford people will be away in the moun ^ tains, at the seaside or at other water ing places on their annual vacation. Some homes will be closed and the cats and chickens will be looked af ter by neighbors. They will return by the first of September and things will begin to “pick up” for fall busi People are constantly passing through iSanford traveling on foot over the highways. They include both young and old men and women and children. Families are some times seen to pass through almost in rags and in destitute circumstances. Mothers pass along leading small children. They seem to be wander ing over the country with no abjective in view. A large aeroplane came over San ford last Sunday afternoon on its way to Fort Bragg. In distress it was forced to land in a cotton field near Broadway. Upon making an ex amination the man at the controls found that the oil pipe became clog ged and would not function. The plane was badly wrecked, but for tunately the man at the controls es caped without injury. The remains of the plane were loaded on a truck and carried back to Winston-Salem. Mr. and Mrs. P. G. York and chll *dren, who spent a week with Mr. York’s people near Atlanta, Ga., re turned the first of the week. Mr. York tells The Express that the best looking crops'that he has seen this season are here in Lee county. He says the'crop* are very short in Geor gia caused by the protracted dry wea ther. He says that it has not rain ed to amount to anything in some sections of that Stale since last win ter. All crops are cut short. . I Rev. and Mrs. W. J. Jones, who are at the head of Pineland College, Sa lemburg, have been in Sanford and Lee county for a few days on a visit. Before her first marriage Mrs. Jones was Miss Mollie Roberts, of Carbon ton, She is collecting data for the purpose of writing a history of Oar bonton, her old home section. A his tory of Carbonton from the time it was first settled by the-early settlers who came into this section back in the ,days when North Carolina first became a State would make mighty interesting reading. Mr. and Mrs. Jones recently returned from Wash ington where they called on and Inter viewed President Hoover. 1 A few nights ago Mrs. Gordon Riddle dreamed that some one was making an attack upon her. When Mr. Riddle became aroused he thought that a burglar was in the house. Jumping out of bed with a pistol in hand and looking in the kitchen he thought he saw the out lines of a man standing in the shad-, oWs. He let drive and when the smoke had cleared away instead of. finding a' man lying on the floor .in the throes of death, he found a gap ing hole in the kitchen stove pipe through which a man could almost thrust bis fist.: i There are now only two Boy Scout Troops in Sanford. The following members of these troops attended the Boy Scout camp near Dunn, in Har nett county, last week: Bill Cook, Wilson Howard, Robert Howard, David Teague, Edward Griffin, Glen Griffin, Dick York. Thosce who are .attending the camp this week from Sanford are: Bill Makepeace, Wilson Howard, Robert Howard, and Dick York! Forty-three boys, represent ing Sanford, Raeford, Fayetteville, Fort Bragg, Roseboro, Siler City and Dunn were in at Camp Bethune last' week.

J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, of Win ston-Salem. From there he will go to Greenville, this state, where he will buy tobacco for tMs big concern, and late in the fall the company will transfer him to Greenville, Tenn., where he 'will represent them on the market.

Mr. Clay- , ton was accompanied by Mr. Virgil Kennedy, who will keep books for a warehouse at Douglas. The Lee County Fair Catalogue is now being gotten out by the Jones, Printing Company. Two thousand copies will be issued and It is ex-j pected that they will be ready for dis-, tribution by the 16th of August. Some things that were in the catalogue of last year were eliminated and some new features added. Many good pre miums will be offered tot agricultur al products and it will be worth wMle for the farmers and their wives to begin making preparation for the ex hibits that they expect to have at Abe fair. Let the farmers and the business men co-operate and make this the best fair ever held in the county. Crops are going to be good and there will be no trouble in getting jip attractive premiums for the fair. The fair will be hshdled with more myntem than ever before. MONCURE NEWS.

The Value of Sound Design Neir Ford engine gives outstanding acceleration, speed and power without sacrificing reliabilitg or economy THE good performance of the Ford car, so apparent on every highway, is due largely to the sound mechanical design of the engine. It has outstanding acceleration, speed and power, yet that is only part of its value to yon - Greater still is the fact that it brings you all these features without sacrificing either reliability or economy. That is the reason the Ford car has given such satisfactory service to mil lions of motorists all over the world and has been chosen by so many large companies that keep accurate cost fig ures. In every detail of construction it has been carefully planned and made for the work it has to do. The design of the compression cham ber is an Important factor in the effi ciency of the Ford engine. It is built to allow free passage of gases through the valves and to thoroughly mix the fuel by producing turbulence within the cylinders during compression. The spark thus flashes quickly tin. -ugh the whole fuel charge, resulting in quieter and more effective engine performance. Other factors are the direct gravity gasoline feed, the specially designed carburetor, the new hot-spot manifold, aluminum pistons, chrome silicon alloy valves of larger diameter, statically and dynamically balanced crankshaft and flywheel, the simplicity of the electrical, cooling, lubrication, and fuel systems and accuracy in manufacturing.
