J| A Miracle, ATruthfulAd Did you ever read a truthful Ad. I mean one when you read it you would say, "That fellow really means what he says'' ? No you never did. You read where some Guy endorses an Overcoat, and to prove it he has one on, (or one they loaned him for the Picture). Now even if he did like it, what has that got to do with you. Peoples tastes are not alike. What difference does it make to anybody what some prominent Statesman, or Actor or Actress, or Movie Star wears. You are no kindergarden, you know what you wore last year and if it pleased you try it again. Now I itant smoke "Bull" Durham, I am ■not going to smoke "Bull" Dur ham, but if you did and you liked it, why dont let some Guys Picture and indorsement tout you off on something else. Now the only way I could ever be caught in a false hood with this ad would be to smoke it myself. P. S. There will be another piece here two weeks from now. Look for it. SIXTY-FIVE YEARS AGO!

Patton, editor of the "Made in Carolinas" section of The Charlotte Observer, was a recent vis itor and was immensely impressed with the evidences of progress ana prosperity in Rutherford county. Writing under the caption of "Indus tries of the Foothills," he says: "Twenty years ago," as Clarence Kuester remarked while on a trip with the writer up in Rutherford county, "it was a day's trip from. Kings Mountain or Shelby in a buggy over muddy roads to Rutherfordton or Forest City." Nature's glorious foothills neld all of their beauty of color and subtlety of charm, but the trouble was folks from other sections couldn t get theie to enjoy them. Good roads form the key which has unlocked this great territory to the world and one may speed over hard surface roads from one town to another and find much to enjoy at every bend of the curve. And while tourists from far and near are passing hourly through Mc- Dowell, Burke, Cleveland, Rutherford and other foothill counties, the hand of industry is also writing history in big letters. Take Spindale, for instance. A few years ago it was merely a spot on the map. When Kuester and the writer climbed the steps of a monster office building in this town, which is the home of seven distinct big mill cor porations under the direction of Ken neth Tanner, Elmore and others, it was to marvel indeed at the achieve ment in industry in this section. On almost every hill in sight the smoke stacks of big mills were reared to "IMPORTANCE OF CHEMISTRY" (Continued From Page Three) burning. Many a mill owner looks out the window and sees without knowing, his dividends go up the chimney. Chemistry meets these conditions by analyzing the fuel gases and regulating the draft. At 5>2.25 a ton the fuel bill or the United States was over $1,000,000,000 in 1910. Of that amount chemistry could easily have saved $100,000,000. A large pulp mill found itself with over 100,000 cords of peeled wood piled in its yard and this wood was beginning to rot. A few thousand gallons of sulphite liquor sprayed over the pile from a garden hose, killed the growing plants that were causing the wood to rot and thus saved the pile. The same mill was losing 23 per cent of its wood as bark waste. Laboratory trials proved that an excellent quality of paper could be made from this waste. As a result hundreds of dollars was saved. In the old days of making paper the rags were piled in a heap, mois tened and allowed to stand for weeks until fermentation softened them. Now they are boiled with lime for a few hours and are made soft so that they can be made into paper. They used to be bleached by the slow ac tion of the sun and dew as they were spread upon the grass. They are now brought to a better color over night by the use of a bleaching pow der. Many of our great industries are founded on minute chemical facts. Goodyear drops a bit of gum mixed with sulphur on a hot stove and the rubber industry results. The fact that silver salts blacken when ex posed to light is responsible for a corporation with $35,000,000 capital on which the earnings are over 20 per cent a year. Because the chem ist learned that glycerine treated vvi-li nitric acid becomes explosive our army engineers are able to separate two continents. The patient study ,of uranium, one of the many hun dreds of elements discovered by scientists, by Madam Marie Curie, has resulted in the discovery of ra ' dium. Radium has and probably will play a leading part in the lives of men, but in my mind there is even a great er service which the chemist has giv en to the world, that thing which is dear to the heart of all of us—food. The words protein, carbohydrate and fat were taught to us by the chem ist. In his ever patient manner he delved into the food! problem and found that beans, peas, lean meat, almonds and eggs furnished the mus cular tissue of animals. To this kind of food he gave the name proteins. He discovered that apples, bananas, dates, honey, molasses, potatoes and rice were rich in sugar and starch, so he named this group carbohydrates. There is still another class of foods such as olives, peanuts, fat meat, but ter, bacon, cream and walnuts that (By J. C. Patton in Charlotte Observer) the heavens. Handsome school build ings, playgrounds, churches, neat and | attractive homes of workers —all of these things spoke of the spending of | millions in the erection of a great in | dustrial Colossus of the Foothills. " And just a few miles away on a j splendid paved road is the equally ■ bustling town of Forest City, with its ! mills and factories, its paved streets, , its fine schools and progressive peo ple. Here we find an old friend, ' Hugh F. Little, in charge of Florence Mills, making cotton flannels and do | ing a big business. Then over the | way a short space is Rutherfordton, 'with its additional factories and but : a few miles distant is Henrietta and j Caroleen, mill communities commem j orative of the foresight and energy ■ of the late S. B. Tanner; and still a ! little further, that magnificent mill : village of Cliffside founded by that princely gentleman, the late Raleigh Haynes, and carried on today by his son, Charles Haynes and associates. | To many the foothill country holds . greater charm than the imposing I mountain regions, but in both, ' scenery unequalled even in Switzer i land is not by any means the whole ! show. For industry has peopled these ! foothill counties with armies produc | ing millions upon millions of yards ' and pounds of merchandise required :by a world that must be fed and 1 clothed. It is not strange that western Carolina is richer than almost any like section in America when one sees the outstanding achievements of her captains of industry in the past few short decades. are rich in fat and are called fatty foods. He goes further and tells us how much heat value each kind of food has. The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of water to 1 degree centigrade is called a calorie. One biscuit con tains one hundred calories, two small pieces of bacon fifty calories and one piece of apple pie three hundred cal ories. He goes further and tells us how many calories we should eat per day. For instance, writers, teachers, book keepers, shoemakers, tailors and phy sicians require from 2,200 to 2,800 calories per day.. Carpenters, mail carriers, house workers and others, require 2,200 to 3,000 calories each day. Farmers, masons and black smiths require 3,500 calories per day. Again were it not for the great achievements in chemistry all the fat women would have to remain fat and the lean ones pass all their precious days without ever knowing that there is a way to gain weight by the prop - er choice of food. The work of chemists in making so many combinations of foods has greatly benefitted the housewife who is now able with only a small variety of foods to make a number of ap petizing and delicious dishes. Women through all ages have learned that to win the love of man she must feed him and I think the success of many homes is due to the fact that the wife with the aid of the chemist has chosen foods for the home in an intelligent manner, has served them attractively and in the proper combinations and proper cal oric value to keep her family in a healthy and happy state. The foundation of the world is based on the success of the home. The foundation of the home is based on chemistry, therefore upon this hypo thesis the foundation of the world is based upon chemistry. Since this is true it behooves us as citizens to give to chemistry its proper chance to grow that it may in the ages to come serve man more advantageously.
