Page Eight THE PILOT Thursday, Septembe ABERDEEN NEWS R. F. Stewart and Carl Buchan in company with Dr. Leiby and his as sistant, J. A. Harris, made a two-day trip through the Hartsville and Flor ence, S. C., cotton section. They went to satisfy themselves of the progress made with the spraying method of combating the boll weevil and to also study the boll weevil situation gener ally. They report that the spraying method has proved a disappointment there the same as at other places where it had been tried and that our cotton here is in good condition as compared to cotton in that section w^hich has been regularly sprayed. While down there Dr. Leiby address ed a delegation of twenty-five cotton planters from the Abbeville, S. C., sec tion at the Pee Dee Experiment Sta tion at Florence. J. C.

Every now and then Chief Page’s “Go to the Right” concrete street posts receive a severe shock, but it remained for three young men to give the one on the corner of Sycamore and Main Streets the shock of its life Sunday afternoon. We can get only one meaning out of “Go to the Right” readig it backwards, upside down or any other way, but to these gentlemen it must have meant “Stop and Have a Drink,” for low and be hold, they stopped to the right of it, to be sure, and all got out. One pro duced a bottle and each took a drink; then just as perfunctorily they climb ed back in again and went on their way rejoicing.

Why? Just for the simple reason that the thrills in this most stirring of mystery melo dramas are realy terrific. Our hat is off to director Clarence Badger for his handling of this spine- shivering sequence of action that has been built into the runaway train scenes. Dashing madly down steep grades in the Grand Canyon a private Pullman swings wildly along the hills, around sharp corners, through dark tunnels and into what looks like a disastrous crash with the second sec tion of the Continental Limited but just you grip your seat and prepare to witness the smash ! ! “Red Lights” has all the mystery of “The Bat” and “The Canary,” in- terpersed with some rich comedy so nicely dovetailed that you are laugh ing at the same time your hair is standing on end. It is one of the real novelties of the year. Something new under the sun. If ever a picture deserved success, this is it. It will sure please the red-blooded folks who take their pic ture entertainment straight. Under the direction of Mr. 0. H. Stutts, chairman of the Pinehurst Community Club, Mr. Jas. Craig and Mrs. R.
