CONFESSING Lonely Song That Louis Home Listen, all the desert is full of sound Silence that is sound, sound that is silence; Voices the ironwood and saccatlon have lost perhaps, As the soft night'" wind breathes wordless Secrets of -how the -wild bees gather desert honey, How lowly quail dart so swiftly across the sand. And of these tiny, nameless flow ers that perfume the trail. Whispering of why the stars are ?more Brilliant. and seems so much nearer here than elsewher, Of the great blue skies so blue they mist the eyes with loveliness. And the reason the desert grips the heart with beauty. ANTIOCH LADIES ENTERTAIN THE KIWANIS CLUB I I For the second time In succession the Roxboro Kiwants Club held its regular meeting with the ladles of Antioch Baptist Church on Monday night.

Many, both married and single, took advantage of these invitations. Also there were some other guests there. ? ! If such a thing were possible the ladies of Antioch outdid themselves on the last meal, but the food on both accaslons was so good that we are Just at a loss to say which was the better.

July 12.?Chevrolet deal ers have sold 35.000" automobile ra dios to purchasers of new Chevro let cars in the last 90 days, M. D. Douglas, parts and service manager of the Chevrolet Motor Co., announc ed here today. The report covers only the sets installed in new 1934 Chevrolets. It does not include the additional thousands purcha s e d from Chevrolet dealers by owners of other cars or of earlier Chevrolets. While the accomplishment is im portant in itself, as setting an all time record for radio sales by Chev rolet dealers. Chevrolet officials are especially interested in it as an in dex of the public's "Increased"-buying power. It signifies that many auto mobile buyers instead of contenting themselves with the cart itself, have enough money over and above its purchase price to indulge in their desire for addional comfort .lux ury and enjoyment. The situation, it is pointed out, did not exist a year ago. and the fact that it does exist today is a proof of returning good times. o READ THE ADVERTISEMENTS WANT ADS FRESH VEGETABLES, can taloupes, watertnelons, brought in daily.
