qtrtto a street crowd and tha ntaraat
wan up to tha bo'Ung point.
With the routa .landing around aa
thick they could crowd together the
mlmmin hayan to talk about rasors
and to tall about how good rayon are
now hard to gat and high at any price.
Rut he waa abla to gat a auppiy of the
old kind of raaora—the kind they
made hack before the country went
to the rich folka, and he waa g 'iug to
do thia particular bunch of men a
favor by supplying them with th» beat
razor* that waa ever madr at the
price they nold for back before the
war. He waa going to aell them for
92 each when they were worth not leae
than |5 and maybe nix. Now during
all thia time he waa having talk about
what ha waa coiaff to gtvm away wfeaa
hi* crowd te think that be was going
to make noma valuable praaent* to hie
friend* before he ijuit talking. Then
he began to hand out the razor* at
92 each. The folka bought them aa
faet aa the fellow could take their
money and make change. In the rourse
of a very abort time he had handed
out no telling how many, poenitaly V>
at 92 each.
On* naturally wanted to see die
end of the show and waited to w
what he could see. No sooner than the
folks quit buying at 12 the talesman
made a short talk about the great
scarcity of razor* and how every man
who waa able to own soeh a (food
razor waa alao the friend of *ome man
who aiao naaded a ' azor And then ha
proceeded to aell each of hi* customer*
it ia a fart, another razor. When each
man had two we -tupposed the show
waa nearintr an end, hut wait. The fet
low boldly ond brazenly told the folks
that almoet any man could sell a citi
zen two razor*—that «u an easy
matter but that it wan not to aa»7 to
-tell a man three razor* at the swAi)
time. And then he irathered up a doz
en and wanted to know who wa* th#
first man who would take the third
of the*# razors. And believe me. for
it i* a fact, he supplied practically
every man who had bought before
with the third razor, each man paying
him 92. How we eupposed that the
show waa over rare enough, bat wait
The fellow had the boys who had
bought to cuts close up. Others were
invited to stand hack. One was remind
ed of the professional evangelist. Hie
boys were t4d to coma close up.
Something wa* going to happen. He
was going to do for theae men arito
were wiae enough to take advantage
of this occasion—wall he was going to

yon believe it or Mt, by this tfcae the
citizens were aa ready to hay the

Board of Commissioners made an ar

Health wherebv a payment of forty

are seven hundred of them, the Board
of Health exter.ned the r.ime *vhen we
should comply with this law until
January 1st 1921. In our judaremrnt.
we felt that it would be needless ex
pense to comply with the state law
when we were in a position to place
sewerage near the residences of our
citizens. Whether or not we were
right or wrong is left to the good
judgement of oar people. We hope
that thia system will be installed as

the bonda. After finding out that w*
were being delayed in the sale of the
bonda. the writer sought information

count of the rock strata in Mt. Airy
that this type would not be permitted.
Therefore, the only type remaining
waa a concrete or sceptic type.

citizens vill not wurry Dr. Williams
