SPECIAL EDITION.
The Laurinburg Exchange today
contains twenty pages of matter
which cannot fail to interest every
reader who has any kind of interest
in Laurinburg and Scotland county.
The preparation of this special edi
tion represents much labor, both on
our part and on the part of our friends
who have so generously helped to
make the edition of such unusual in
terest. It is issued in celebration of the
thirty-fourth birthday of the Laurin
burg Exchange and the sixteenth
birthday of Scotland county. In it
you will find, we believe, a generous
fund of information and history about
Laurinburg and Scotland county that
has heretofer remained unwritten, and
it is therefore of more than ordinary
interest and value to the citizenship
of both Laurinburg and Scotland
county.
To those who so generously helped
by making the sacrifice of time and
giving the effort to add something to
the worth of the edition, we want to
return many sincere thanks.
If the efforts put forth to create
thi- special edition of the paper adds
thf least to the glory or the good of
Laurinburg and Scotland county, they
will not have been made in vain, and
all who have interested themselves,
we are sure, will feel amply repaid
for the sacrifice made.
ADIEU.
In severing my connection with the
Laurinburg Exchange, which I do to
morrow, I am leaving a work that has
been agreat blessing, of much help
and pleasure to me, and I realize that
the good I have drawn from it has
been far greater than that which I
have been able to give back to it.
The appreciations that I have
shown, as best I could, to the friends
anil patrons of the paper, have been
but a small measure of what I have
and will ever hold in my heart for
each of you. You have been better
and kinder to me and more willing to
overlook my shortcomings than I have
had any right to expect,
v 1 have always strived hard to do
what seemed right to me, and while I
have not pleased all, I realize how
futile such an attempt would have
been. But when I reckon with myself
I feel that I have not done altogether
bad, because I have done the best I
could.
For the generous support, the
thoughtful kindness and help that you
have given me during the past four
years, I desire in this brief word to
return in as full measure as possible,
my most sincere thanks.

burger Tuesday received a telegram
that,, his brother-in-law was dead. A

message that his oldest brother was
dead in Randolph County. Mr. Sham
burger left Tuesday night for Aber
deen to attend the funeral of his
brother." The many friends of
Brother Shamburger will deeply sym

CAPTURES STILL. ,
Scotland Officers Raid Another Liquor
: Factory.
Deputy Sheriff Lamar P. Smith,
Rural Policeman Frank Smith and
Mr. L. Bruce Gibson went on a still
hunt Tuesday afternoon, and about
six o'clock Deputy Smith turned up
with a 50-gallon outfit ,v;,.h he and
the others had located and captured
in Williamson township.
They found no operators, but
abundant evidence of their- nnerations,
in fact the still was hot when it I
reached the court house and had evi
dently turned out some of the finished
product during the day.
Mr. Smith stated that they found
about a gallon of "white lightning''
at the still, but could only 'find enough
vessels to bring along a quart.
According to statements from the
officers, the blockaders were well fixed
and located. They kept no guards
out to look for the approach of offi
cers, but better still, they had the
surrounding territory, which was of
a thick undergrowth, strung with
wires, all of which led to the still, and
on the end of the main wire, which
was connected with the various wires,
a bell dangled, and when anyone ap
proached they could not easily do so
without coming in contact with the
wires, and when they did this, the
bell at the still jingled and gave the
alarm.
The outfit was one of those crude
affairs that are so common to the
profession since the officers have
been finding and destroying them so
often.

HAVE A CARE.
It would be the wise thing for par
ents to have a care about their little
ones playing about the Confederate
monument. If some care is not taken,
some little tot, who is the sunshine
and delight of some home in Laurin
burg will be suddenly ushered into
the keeping of the angels some of
these days, and some automobile
driver will be held responsible for its
death.
Main and Church streets converge
at the monument from four points,
and drivers coming from either way
can not see children on the opposite
side of the monument. It is nothing
uncommon to see a bevy of nurses at
the foot of the monument with a
dozen or more children running here
and there and playing about the base
of it.
A driver going down South Main
street could not possibly see a child
on the south side of the monument,
neither could one coming down East
Church see one on the opposite side.
These streets, which are traveled by
machines, winds close to the monu
ment either way, and it would only
be necessary for one to dash out, as
they are often seen doing, into the
path of an automobile, and when this
happens, when some little one steps
out at the wrong time, we will all
jstop, shudder, and perhaps have a
care.
Riverton Quartette.

It was a sad message that was
flashed over the county Thursday an
nouncing, the death of Mrs. Boyd
Peele, which occurred at the family
home in Williamson township. She
had been ill for several weeks, and
while her passing was not altogether
unexpected, it was nevertheless a
great blow to her friends and loved
ones.
Mrs. Peele was a resident of Fay
etteville before her marriage three
and one-half years ago.
She is survived by her husband and
one child five weeks old; one brother,
William, Branch, of Raleigh; her mo
ther, who lives in Fayetteville. and
two sisters, Mrs. Heilman, of Fay
etteville, and Mrs. Rhodes, of Nor
folk, Va.
The Exchange extends its sincerest
sympathy to the stricken family.
Fairmont Took Three.
Of the four games played by the
locals with Fairmont the past week,
Fairmont captured three of them.
The first game was reported in our
last issue. The second game here
went to Fairmont by a score of 4 to
3. In the next engagement, which
was at Fairmont, the locals won by a
score of 2 to 1. The game Friday
went to the credit of Fairmont by
close score, 3 to 4.
This week we are playing Fayette
ville at Fayetteville. The game
Tuesday was captured by Fayette
ville by a score of 10 to 6 and another
game was played yesterday, but too
late for us to get the results. Today
and tomorrow the locals will be at
home and will have as their opponents
the lads from Parkton.

Nothing has ever disturbed the demand for this car.
Not for a month, not for a week, not for a single day.
Having only one car to build. Dodge Brothers have been, able to build it better and better.
But in the sense of radical changes, it is the same car t )day it was when they designed it.
And still the demand goes on growing greater and greater.
No outside conditions, no conditions inside the industry, seem to slow it up a particle.
The people want the car more intensely at this moment than they ever wanted it before.
This in the face of the fact that production is at the highest peak it has ever reached.
And in the face of the further fact that the sales in a year and a half have been more than $63,
000,000. You can find out why this is so from what people are saying about the car all around you.
For months and months they talked particularly of its performance.
Now, you will hear even greater emphasis laid on its economy.
You will bear that with thousands of cars in use, Dodge Brothers dealers have practically no use for
repair parts.
That rumor is true. Accidents are the chief source of demand for Dodge repair parts.
You will hear that the cost of maintenance is practically nil.
This too, is true in thousands of cases.
You will hear that the car consumes an unusually small amount of gasoline and oil.
This is literally true of every Dodge Brothers car, under all conditions.
You will hear that it is very difficult to find Dodge Brothers cars for sale at second-hand anywhere.
You will also hear that the second-hand price is only a little lower than the first price.
Both of these things are true not in one city, nor one state, but all over the Union.
You do not hear people talking about the price of the car.
But you do hear them talking everywhere about the kind of a car it is.
In short, wherever you find a Dodge Brothers car, you will find it surrounded by friends.
You will find it running, from morning to night, in an astmosphere of good will.
No ill will anywhere, good will every where good will that grows out of its good work.
No one knows the value of this good will any better than Dodge Brothers know it.
No one counts more on it, nor works harder to deserve it.
This is your guarantee when you buy one of Dodge Brothers cars the great good will that all the
owners feel toward it and the high value which Dogde Brothers place on that good will.
