I T STROUD Opposite Church, Pink Hill, N. C. The vice-president in Mr. Lonnie Smith and Mr. Ivey B. Smith is as gintant cannier. The Oldeat Firm in Town. One of the places of interest and always a busy place is the general mercantile eitabliohment of the firm of Turner Brothen. This firm, com posed of T. A. Turner and L. C. Tur ner, dates back twelve years and has a record of successful business each year, and with a steadily growing list of customers. The stock is full and down-to-the-minute in every particu lar. Young men, the Messrs. Turner, re energetic and progressive and study the needs of the community as well as the larger markets. In the stock Is a well selected stock of dry goods, hats, caps, shoes and notions. Their grocery department is a lead er and heavy and fancy groceries sup ply the need of the growing trade. In every movement to forward the inter ests of Pink Hill, the firm of Turner Brothers is always found right in the lead. They believe in their town and Its future, and are striving to have a part in the larger development of the resources of the section. With the record of being the old est firm in Pink Hill, this concern proposes to be also known as a firm of progressive men and along this line they are making good. One of the Big Concerns. One of the big concerns of Pink Hill is the general store of L. P. Tyn- dall and large quantities of heavy merchandise is handled in this store, with its list of customers extending in every direction from the town. A native of this county, Mr. Tyndall was for some while in the turpentine industry, and operated a general mer chandise business four miles from Pink Hill. In the early part of this year he erected a large brick store building in Pink Hill, and with the addition of large warehouses located at the rail road, handles a large quantity of mer chandise of heavy nature, buying in carload lots. The store building is 40 by 60 feet, with a handsome, modern plate glass front, a well lighted and at tractive store room, where is display ed the stock of house furnishing goods, stoves, ranges and other sta ple lines found in a general stock. In addition, Mr. Tyndall handles buggies, wagons, guano and wire fen cing, with other needs for the town man and the farmer. With twenty years' experience in tne business or general merchandise, it ia hardly nec essary to mention the fact that Mr. Tyndall is a successful merchant and worthy citizen. Still retaining his rural interests. the farm and other holdings, Mr. Tyndall lives in Pink Hill, occupying a handsome modern home recently erected at a cost of $2,500. This business is rapidly growing and many of the farmers of this sec tion are now purchasing all 1' tion are now purchasing all their supplies here, who formerly went to other towns this is as it should be. Pink Hill merchants are entitled to the trade of the country around this community. One of the New Ventures. One of the recent additions to the business activity of Pink Hill was the result of a long-felt want a la dies' store. Two ladies own and ope rate this establishment, and they have made good from the very first. Mrs. T. A. Turner and Miss Iiernlce Turner, under the firm name, Mrs. T. A. and Bernice Turner, have opened what is termed "The Ladies' Store," and they assert without fear of con tradiction that it is the only store of the kind in the town. The new stock covers a host of articles that go to make up the modern woman's ward robe. Full line of ladies' furnishings. millinery, novelties, notions and dry good. In addition a stock of the lat est patterns is kept up to date. Thor oughly modern, this store compares favorably with any store of its char acter in the State. Opened this fall, there is no old stock and every de sign and every style is the latest. The business of the Ladies Store is an in dex to its popularity, and this busi ness is growing each month. Good Reason for Selling. There must always be justification when a merchant offers his stock of good a at cut prices. Whenever you read an advertisement calling your attention to sales at cost and below cost ask the question Why? There are Home good reasons why a stock of goods should be sold at a loss of tentimes the owner wishes to retire from business and the quickest way to clean out the stock is to cut the profit out of the price and maybe more. Mr. Jesse J. Smith, already a successful merchant, with a large stock of dry goods, shoes and notions and. la addition, a grocery depart-' meat, with a well-selected stock of staple, heavy and fany groceries, is announcing the sal of hla stock at prices that will appeal. Mr. Smith says that he ts glad to cut the profit off every article In the store. Mr. Smith has a good reason for this step. His stock is good and his business is good, but he has recently been ap pointed postmaster, and he wishes to devote his time to the office as he should and consequently he makes this cost price offer on his stock. One of the Necessities. Visitors to every town and city are always interested in the hotel accom modations. Visitors must have some place to sleep and eat, and if a visitor is seeking a location for either a home or a business, the first acquaintance he makes in the town is with the ho tfl. It is very necessary therefore, that every town should have a good hotel, one that is attractive and one that pleases. Advertising draws peo ple to a town or to a county but when they come they are very like ly to measure everything by the ac commodations they receive. Pink Hill is fortunate in its hotel accom modations. Conveniently located, within a stone's throw of the rail road station, and right in the busi ness section of the town is the Hotel Howard. Here are comfortable rooms J clean and cozy there are fourteen of them. The proprietor, Mr. Thom as Howard, is determined to please every guest, and makes a special ef fort to secure the very best for the table and he succeeds. The cooking is done with a thought of the guests and everybody who stops here tells the same story a comfortable room and splendid food. The rates are reasonable, and with the ample food supply of the county, it seems that the high cost of living has not struck the Hotel Howard. Making Good and Growing. One of the enterprises of Pink Hill destined to have a bright future is the Pink Hill Motor Car Company. The manager of the company, Mr. J. T. Stroud, has in connection with the garage, a machine shop for repair work and can handle all automobile repairs as well as other machine shop business. The concern is also equip ped for the manufacture of tobacco flues, and did a large business in this department the past season. In or der to take care of the business, the capacity of the plant will be largely increased the coming season because of the growing demand for the out put. Careful and trained mechanics have been engaged in this shop and the repair work always gives perfect satisfaction to the customers. This is another evidence of the fact, so of ten expressed, in connection with Pink Hill it is not necessary to go out of town for any need. Build your home town the motto of Pink Hill citizens and Pink Hill hustlers is possible when every industry is represented in the community. This concern is new in Pink Hill but is doing wpll. Having secur ed the selling agency for some good automobiles, they will do still better business along their various lines with the opening of the year. Growing Bigger Steadily. Identified with the community pro gress and community growth is the store of Mr. J. T. Stroud. With a general mercantile stock, consisting of well selected assortments of dry goods, shoes, notions and like lines of merchandise, this store enjoys the confidence of the people and has a large and growing business. In ad dition to the usual stock. Mr. Stroud also caters to the soft drink trade and the modern drinks are served. Ready for a Pleasure Trip. One of the delights of this present age is an automobile trip through the rapidly developing country of Eastern Carolina. Not a few years ago and this section of country was generally understood to be "down and out" but what a mistake that was. Today, men of knowledge are frank to say that Eastern Carolina is right in the forefront of the pro cession. Coming into its own fast and still faster. Hundreds of thous ands of fertile acres are being brought under the latest methods of cultivation and fertilization. If the reader of this little paragraph ha not seen a really good country come to Pink Hill and get in touch with Mr. V. A. Smith he will furnish you a careful driver and a comfortable car, and you will see some of the best country in the world Mr. Smith does an automobile livery business and knows how. His prices are reason able and service is up to the standard. In addition to the automobile liv ery business, Mr. W. A. Smith has a large and well stocked general mer cantile establishment, and has made a good record in the line. With en ergy and determination he has faith in the coming greatness of Pink Hill, and is putting his time and money into the business of helping build a bigger town. It is very apparent that rink Hill men stand together on the proposi tion of building Pink Hill. They have the location, the back country, the op portunity and they are determined to take a grood grip on the proposition and pull off success. Co-operation plus energy will do the business for the Pink Hill folks. New York, Nov. 23 There is every reason to believe that Princeton will next year adopt the permanent foot ball coach idea, which has been so eminently successful at Harvard un der Haughton, and in the majority of the colleges throughout the Middle West. Princeton, with some of the best all around material that Nassau has had to work on in years, this year lit erally foozled away her opportuni ties. There was Old Man Opportun ity fairly begging to be taken into the Tiger fold, but the old plan of a new coach every year or two, and these without full authority to carry out their programs told in the poor showing during the 1914 season. Of course, Percy Haughton is a wizard. He is as good as Yost, or Stagg ever was. But he couldn t have done what he has accomplished in a year, nor in two years. And he had to have complete charge in his department. Yale has started right, it seems, in employing Hinkey, who probably will be given carte blanche as long as he wants the job of put ting the winning wallop, smash, and punch into Yale's gridiron warriors.
