Whether the college girl is bad or not. there seems to be no doubt that she's painted, and badly painted at that, in more senses than one. Probably all wisdom is in neither the Garner nor the Mel lon tax plan. Either plan might borrow a bit from the other and be the gainer. Weather man says we are in for more cold weather tonight and tomorrow. Better watch out for your water pipes, auto mobiles, geraniums and sich. It's better to be safe than sorry. Fellow who was boy prodigy in 1909 is now making $23 a week as statistical clerk in New York City. Makes us plain dads of regular boys glad that wo have no boy prodigies today. The Advance supposes that the New Hope boy who ran into an automobile will hardly be likely to try the same trick again. He was a lucky youngs ter in the car he picked to run into. , Instead of having Federal prohibition agents scratching their heads the state of Louisi ana ought to have the jurors who drank up the evidence in a liquor case and then brought in a verdict of acquittal scratching a rock pile with a pick. With the new road to South Mills now open, why should not South Mills have a star mail route from Elizabeth City such as that now in operation be tween Elizabeth City and Weeksville? Has the Chamber] of Commerce investigated the feasibility of circulating a peti tion in South Mills to that end? The Advance hopes that be fore selection of a site for the new municipal building there will be a conference between th? site committee and the newly created City Planning Commis sion. If we are going to make a start in the direction of new municipal buildings, the new commission was created in the nick of time. > The Advance is happy in that it is daily adding to its list of correspondents in the Albemarle counties and believes that at the present rate it will have its en tire territory covered before the passing of 1924. We have been looking for these correspondents ever since this newspaper was established, but had little luck in obtaining them until we tried regular and persistent use of Advance classified advertising. We now add our own to the tes timony of others who have tried them and found that these little ads produce big results. NORFOLK COTTON (Reported by Wlnborn* A Co.)

Apothecary Shop FIRST M ^ ^ st^ie4' : They are standardized in order to bring about uni- \ form therapeutic efficiency to the patient whenever required. This efficiency is most needed in the sick room ? not merely in the laboratory. What is true of drugs must be true of foods. Purity and efficiency in the can js only part of the problem ? purity and efficiency in the kitchen is the true test. The law requires that baking power contain 12% leavening gas at the time of sale to the consumer. This measure insures uniform leavening efficiency and protects the health of the public. In order to comply with this fixed standard for bak ing powder, manufacturers must produce and pack their product so as to avoid the deterioration which may result from absorption of atmospheric moisture. Baking Powder manufacturers to avoid violation of i , the law, also spend thousands of dollars yearly in testing grocers' stocks and removing "spent" goods from his shelves, in spite of the fact that every pos sible precaution had previously been taken against deterioration. With the exception of Texas, thg pure food laws are not applied to bak ing powder mixed with flour at the mill and sold in bags as "Self Rising Flour." There is no penalty on the manufacturers if this fails to "self rise" ? the consumer is the "goat" ? he is the one that pays the penalty through indigestion and ill health that comes from eating bakings that are not properly raised. The standardization of baking powder is a pro tection to Doth the consumer and the manufacturer ? who welcomes such laws and co-operates in every way possible. But ! Not so with the self rising flour manufacturer ? he resents such laws and fights such legislation. Why? Because a standardization of self ris - ing flour would require moisture-proof containers instead of cheap sacks ? because low grade "clears" could no longer be_sold-as^ifanfjv-patent ? flour." It would also ineanTie must maintain expert chemical control such as is now maintained by baking powder manufacturers. Calumet Baking Powder contains only such ingredients as have been officially approved by the U. S. Food Authorities.
