Think it should don’t you with all these new fangled taxes in affect. t. ..i.' ‘ Successful peach season doses this week. May tobacco and cot ton get the same kind of treat ment. Bank robberies continue at an ' alarming rate. Well, that’s one item Sanford certainly can’t be bothered with at present. Sanford has had recognition for many things in time past. Now her beautiful girls come in for their share of the honors. ,, Counterfeiters caught at last! Have to hand it to.those boys, they’re about the only folks We’ve heard of in some time time who could make any monty. Boy,, that School Commission certainly has its hands fuIL They’re running it all, even to that httie onerroom school back «ut yonder in No Man’s Land. Dickens will case takes five days of Lee Superior Court last week. A civil action—five days! There’s where your money goes that they could take care of things at home as wdl as win the state prise money. Good woifcboys. listen to those mill whistle at noon. Sounds like everybody’; started back to work. Watch thal increased group of negro labor era starting home late in the al .ternoon. Things look better. No!

SANFORD SUSTAINS A GRIEVOUS LOSS. “Chief Me Kern an is dead. ’ That was what the crowd, who stood late Saturday afternoon watching the S-W warehouse go lip in smoke, heard.. THE CHIEF had answered his last' fire alarm. Have you over stood by and watched Big John direct Sanford’s Smoke Eaters in stopping a blaze ? or observed him supervising a group of workmen on the city * «traets engaged in some munici ■ ■ - m,r •>,. .... ■ pal improvement? or seen the ease and ability with which he has performed his duties as San ford’s Chief of Police? then you will readily understand what a loss has beau sustained in his death. A total the site of Sanford is indeed fortunate wh«t it has in its municipal service a man'who can be relied upon to ably super vise the functioning of its many branches of public works. San ford had that in none other than John McKeman. To replace him will be next to the impossible. The esteem with which this man was held was indeed mani fested by the vast number of out of-town city officials and local citizens who attended his funeral on Monday morning’. God rest your soul Big John, you died while at the post of duty. WHAT ABOUT : GOD’S HOUR? I My friend, were you among the fortunates who heard the -Rev. Altai Frew on Sunday night last at the First Baptist church? The young man’s thought and discussion was centered on the seeming failure of the present world to give God his hour. The appeal seemed indeed to come at the opportune time. We Americans are today facing a period of shorter working hours, more leisure time, and a general increase in salaries. Have you stopped to think just what you are going to do with the increas ed number of hours which you may call your own? Mr. Frew is asking us to do as the Samaritan woman did: Forget our water pots and give God His hour. It is suggested that if we ’hadn’t been so engrossed in clipping coupons and reaching . for more of Unde Sam’s cur rency back in 1929 and had at least given God his due the situa [tion that is today staring us in ! the face would probably never I have come about. We wer# just ! too busy drawing water to re 1 member from whence it came. People like to have things made easy for them. Our govern havesee^ifit J increasing our time for ' Well, for what? Just what an end of the year show enormous profits. What do you ttiink? -With government success quite evident in its demands on other sections of agriculture why not one that will offer long needed protection to the South's mass of tobacco farmers? > We say protection just as it sounds. It seems impossible to bring about any degree of cooperation between the tobacco industry and the planters. Result—_a i^eed for PROTECTION. ■ : ■ J’ ‘ %■ " ■ r ‘ . f 's; --J- -r i-V LET’S GET BUST ON A NEW WAREHOUSE. The Fates seem determined that Sanford’s facilities for mar keting local farm products shall open under serious disadvan tageathis season. First^we have odr hanking troubles; then on Saturday last, our oldest tobacco warehouse went up in Sanford’s most des tructive fire in .many months. When it rains it'poup. With this went the hopes of many for a successful tobacco market here this fait We don’t shout catas trophe from the house tops, but if Sanford is to live up to past records made in tobacco sales something must be done to re store this loss mid done imme diately. Brother, if you have any help ful suggestions to make, or can offer aid of any kind, don’t keep it under your hat—out with it! NOW. i WHAT ABOUT YOUR PART IN THE CODE* For the past few weeks much has been said by the press about the new code that was finally' put on in all sections of the conn-1 try this week by the administra' tkm to work out a plan to relieve * the people of this terrible de- j pression and bring prosperity! and happiness to the masses. There is no way of knowing how the thing will work out as it has no precedent. In a Way it is a leap in the dark, but it is believ- j ed that it is workable and will' prove a success if merchants,' manufacturers and others will' carry it out as planned. Presi- j dent Roosevelt has said that it will be impossible for him to j make a success of it unless he can get the cooperation of the people in putting it over. i In a talk before the Kiwanis Club last Friday night Mr. D. B. j Teague discussed the code and said it was the second great' revolution in this country. We think it can be called the great- j est revolution of its kind in the! history of the world. In fact; there has never!, been anything iu the history cff the woridfeffi it. Should it prove a success in this country the good effect will ®o doubt spread to other coun tries. Uoyd George, one of the great English statesmen of to day, is quoted by Mr. Teague M stating that there are now three countries in the world in . which 'great revolutions are In progress, [Russia, Italy and America, and J that the most interesting, of the I [three is in America. The condir tion of things made this kind of * revolution necessary. The coun .try was facing a crisis and it was found necessary to give Presi dent Roosevelt the power of a dictator to bring about a change and save the country from what might eventually be a bloody revolution. ■The people of the country are responding to his plan of bring ing order out of chaos by putting »n a program that is revolution ary in its nature. They feel that yum ui operauon prove a failure, the financial con iition of the country could not »e made much worse than it has been for the past two or three years. People who fail to co operate with the government by putting on this code will be put in a class with men who proved to be slackers during the World War." Some 40 merchants and other business and manufacturing concerns of the town have sign ed the blanks that they received from Washington through Post master Ralph Kennedy. They put on the program. Tuesday morning and many have put up the blue eagle on the front of their places of business which shows that they are working in cooperation with the govern ment to make the thing a suc cess. These blue eagles are sup plied by Postmaster Kennedy, who has also received a large batch of th$m from Washing ton. " ‘ *! Sanford’s National Guard out fit preparing for annual encamp ment. Hope the boys will live up to the record they have made in years past. > . V- -W ; -; r. -*.r* v Editor Harris Pays Visit T® New Mining Are* -V '.v..;. ;( - Mr. Wade H. Harris, editor M the Ouurtott* Observer, recently made a trip form Deep River and published th* following story about a visit to the mine ef the North Carolina Cool Mining f&rpoteiioa near Carbonton: 4 An advertisement m Sunday's Ob server indicated a new strike in the coal fields of the Deep River section, the development being operated by the North Carolina Cool Mining Cor porstion, and information of a now coal mine set the editor of the Obser war an* an exploring expedition. iPol lowing directions given at Carthage, it was found that the mine is located just off a fine country road, which is crossed by the Norfolk Southern, and o short distance from Carbon ton, hid den in a wooded strip of pines and scrub oaks, close to the dividing line of Chatham and Moore counttae. The thing that made it look like a coal mine was a monumental pile of black debris accumulated from preliminary workings to the main deposits under ground. There is no tipple and the engine house is but a crude affair, constructed to serve development pur poses, but the bine prints for an intan mve mining plant given token of what is to appear on the landscape when operations are started in a commercial way. The preliminary work has been going on for two years and all is now in readiness for construction of the permanent mining plant. Underground the'coal runs in sheets 32 inches thick and surveys show a practical inex hansbble field, with the interesting possibility of striking hard or anthra rite Coal. It is a bituminous mine of the same character that prevails in the old Egypt district, but the engin eer has noted that as the shaft goes down the coal takes on a hardness that indScates a change from Mtumin. ous to anthra^te. This has been long regarded as a possibility in the coal mining region of the State and is a posh bility of considerable consequence. So far, mining has been conducted merely on a demonstrative way, but with an eye to initial revenue, as the plant is taking put about 20 tons a day and has made contract for supplying the Moore County court house and school houses. The capacity of the mine, when in full operation, will be sufficient ICE CREAM SUPPER The members of the Willing Work era’ Senior dess of 'the Morris Chapel Sunday School are sponsoring an ice cream supper at the home! of Mr. and Mrs. R.
