HearD about TowN Our good friend, Mr. J. T. Gen try, of Varina, N. C., favored us with a call last Saturday. Mr. Gen try Is a native of this County, and like a number of good folks made the mistake of "leaving us, but he has been very successful In his adopted home. He says his tobacco crop was damaged by hail, but he has received a good price, and his crop will 'pay him a nice profit. t ' Mr. B: S. Glenn,,one of the best merchants and f&rcners In the County, poked his head In the door yesterday morning and said if Rox boro kept up the pace It had set on the opening day the market would sell the crop raised in Person, well, that Is jitst -what we believe the buyers are going to do, and we pre dict the farmers will-stand by their i home market., _ __ , Mr. John Jones, of Moriah, who is recognized not only as a good farmer but as one who Is Intense ly interested in schools, had a load of tobacco here yesterday, and he was tickled at his prices. Said he Just brought along a load of tips and was not expecting any great things, ljut they averaged better than 28 cents. _ Notwithstanding the time for straw hats has passed we?saw two of our best merchants Sunday wearing straws. Well, perhaps they were' Just trying to reduce the stock of j straw hats, but to us it looked like a mighty poor advertisement for fall hats. We saw one pile of tobacco at the Hyco sell for *1.1)0 a pound. My, sounds like the days of 1919.

Carolina and Wake Forest All Set For Game Saturday I Chapel Hill, Sept. 25?Carolina : and Wake Purest are to meet on the gridiron here Saturday in what is expected to be the best attended^ - opening game between these two rS? vals since they started playing toot ball way back in the.,nineties. | All tihs week the ticket sale has been unusually heavy. The 62-0 ; trouncing that Wake Forest handed Guilford last Saturday has served j notice that the Tar Heels have a formidable crew to reckon with this Saturday. | Two of last year's standbys who . didn't play against Guilford are expected to be ready for Carolina. I They are Mike DiAngelis, one of the State's best guards, who report ed. late, and .Bill Martin, the best broken field runner on the squad, who had fin injured foot. The Deacon line will outweigh the .Tar Heels 10 pounds to the man, averaging 200 pounds. Built around the veteran cente", Reinhardt, and the massive tackles, Swan and Ghet ty, it charges, blocks, tackles, and does everything else that a good line should do. ?? . Wake Forest also has a coterie of fine ball carriers i& Martin, Edens, Myers, Kitchln, Morris, Shep . pard, Gold, Horton, and Peacock, ! and in Edens and Kitchin it has i perhaps the best kicker and foasser in the State. r ? * ! To stop the Deacon hosts, Caro ' lina is banking on the speed, drive, j experience, and spirit of its veteran line. The latter, averaging 190 pounds, lists six lettermen, Daniel | at center, - Captain \ Barclay and Kahn at guard, Tatum and Evins at tackle, and W. Moore at end, I with one sophomore, Buck, at the other flank. From tackle to tackle the person nel is the same as Carolina was starting in the closing games of 1933, Only the ends are untried. BLACK-DRAUGHT For CONSTIPATION "I am 71 years old and have used Thedford's Black-Draught about forty yeans," writes Mr. W. J. Van over, of Rome, Ky. "We are never without it. I take it as a purga tive when I am bilious, dizzy and have swimming in my head. Black Draught relieves this, and helps ma in many ways." ... Keep a pack age of this old, reliable, purely vegetable laxative in your home, and take it for prompt relief at the first sign of constipation. J/VCOM ? PUUl-aACI^. If Its work in practice is any crite rion, there will be a great battle and some brilliant play all along the line here Saturday.
