Th'ree straight shut-outs, and here's Edenton again. Well, Jess stood up pretty well for an old fellow. Wonder what Shelby's candid opinioji of the Dempsey-Gibbons light is today? If every owner of a flivver would vote for Ford, wouldn't the flivver king get a landslide? ~ Wonder if anybody is seeing to it that the kerosene cans are dripping after the showers these days? The Advance is hoping that Roanoke Island is planning to observe Virginia Dare day this year. What with all the folks who are being trained for leadership1 these days, one wonders if there are going to be followers enough to go 'round. Glad to hear that the crop' prospects are bright for a bump er crop of Currituck sweet po tatoes this year?and we a re hoping that the price will be as1 satisfactory as the yield. It's a hopeless sinner who, proclaims his failings. What chance would the prophet Na than have had with old King David if the latter had been bragging about his devilment. It would be interesting if some one had been stationed at the various banks Friday after noop.t^.see how many forgot that jjatiks . as well as stores close Friday at 1 o'clock during July and August. From the number of revivals1 they have in Goldsboro The Ad vance judges that the Coldsboro folks must enjoy their religion or else they must need more of It than the average North Caro lina town. The fans were keen for news from that ball game at Edenton Thursday. The Advance got al most as many telephone calls asking for the result as it did inquiries as to the "outcome of the Willard-Firpo fight. Kentucky rock asphalt is the material that is being used in Raleigh for re-surfacing Kay etteville street ? one of the bumpiest thoroughfares in the capital city. Wjiat about using the same thing to smooth over Elizabeth City's Belgian blocks? And what about trying it out on one or two of the spots on the Weeksville road that need patch ing?

Hv TTi? iar-4 I'rt-M ? During the last 12 years the fur niture Industry has grown to be one I of the most Important In the state, In 1910 there wi rt* 8 factories in the Istate; today there are 107. The value of the output of these mills in 1910 was $1 1,232,000 an nually. In 1921-22 the value was 130. 288.761. i Guilford. Davidson, and Caldwell {counties lead In this industry while the city of High Point Is the ac knowledged center of the industry in I the state. In 1910 the total number of wage earners employed by the industry I was 6.38.3; today there are 8,697. [The wage scale has kept pace with 'the Industry for it has advanced 89 percent during the decade. Capital invested in the manufac tories in 1910 as $3,283,246 and 1:1 J.922 had increased to $6,525,102. The annual payroll a decade agl. was $1,618,150 while fn 1921-1922 it amounted to $5,467,614. Wages in these plants are pail | weekly uud semi-momhly. The manufacture of tobacco pro ducts ranks second among Industries] of the state, being exceeded only by J the cotton good* industry. The combined value of the tobac co and cotton goods manufactured products represents more than 40 percent , of the total manufactured products of the state. North Carolina ranks first In acre- , age planted in tobacco among the ; states of the> union and is second in ' quantity ad value of products. Winston Salem is the center of the' Industry, more than three-fourths of ' the tobacco being manufactured there. The tendency for the past 20 years has been to concentrate the indus try In Immense factories. In 1900 there were 96 factories in the state, 4 in i9io. and in 1922 only iS. The value of products manufac tured in 1910 was $35,987.00 and in 1922 it had grown In to $214, 830,348. The industry furnishes support to 16.449 persons, with an averag-* i hitch daily wage for men of $5.0 1 and for women $3.07. Durham. Asheville, Greennboro. Hickory. Leaksville and Htatesville are the principal tobacco manufac turing points, with Durham second to Winston Salem which leads all others. Durham, because of the pro duct bearing its name, is perhaps j the most widely known of these ceu- I ters. The value of plants* operating in ! 1922 was $20,115,034 with a yearly | payroll of $14,027,661. STORAGE BATTERIES FOR AM. MAKER OF OARS?
