TWMWMeB" ? '* " t ?? WARNS OF DANGER OF CARBON MONOXIDE "Forget about the thermometer, no matter if it is flirting with, zero, and open up that garage door if. you are going to run your motor inside," says Roy M. Chipley, of the Chipley Motor Co., Raleigh. "This is an annual warning that possibly has grown hackneyed but it is one which cant be given, too often, especially at this time of "the year, fot the penalty of its non-observance in most cases is death. "A majority of automobiles are kept in small garages, which through the winter are tightly dosfed. With the motor running, these small struc tures, when the doors are shut, fill quickly with deadly carbon monoxide. "Deaths following the running of automobile motors in closed garages have been of such frequent occur rence in every part of the country that it would be thought warnings now are unnecessary, but the poison ous gas is so insidious m its action that motorists grow careless with it. "If your motor is hitting on all of them sweet and pretty and no smoke at all is coming from the exhaust don't take it for granted that no harm can befall and close the garage door. Carbon monoxide is odorless, tasteless and invisible. "Carbon monoxide is present in the exhaust of an automobile all the time. In a building where the air is being circulated constantly or in a large structure the amount of gas coming from one car is so small relatively^ that it can do no harm, but in a small garage with windows and doors closed enough is produced in a very short time to cause death. MILLION MARRIAGES Washington.?There were 1,126,418 marriages performed and 148,554 di vorces granted in the United States (hiring the calendar year 1922, ac cording to statistics compiled by the bureau of the census and announced recently by the United States depart-' ment of commerce. For the calendar year 1916, the last year for which these statistics 'were collected by the bureau of census, there were I,'840,684 marriages and 112,036'divorces reported- ~ Accepting as correct the figures announced by the department of com merce, there were in 1922, 1,033 mar riages and 136 -divorces per 100,000 population, as compared with 1,055 marriages and 112 divorces in 1916. A prohibition agent was shot to death in a Buffalo restaurant last week in the midst of a crowd of din ers, who trampled one another in an attempt to escape th? rain of bullets. . Nine bullets were found in his body. Whiskey smuggling is no different from silk smuggling. It's a safe bet that if aihc were being smuggled in stead of whiskey .that every idle sol dier in the-U. S. Army, every gun boat in the navy would be put to work to 'enforce our constitution and de stroy the outlaws. But?.? During recent political debates Lloyd George asserted that under free trade Great Britain was the greatest exporter of manufactures. The United States exported $150, 000,000 worth of cotton goods while England sent out over $900,000,000 worth. Last year the United States sold $190,000,000 worth of iron and steel, while the British exports were $300,000,000. There seems to be con siderable room for thought in these figures and in the fact that all goods were sold in an open world mar ket NOTICE OF SALE Under and by virtue of authority conferred in Section 2435, of the Con solidated Statutes of North Carolina, I-will offer for sale, to the highest bidder for cash, in front of Rouse's garage, on Main street, in the town of Farmville, County of Pitt, State of North Carolina, on Saturday, the 29th day of December, 1923, at 12:00 o'doek, noon, the following personal property, "to wit: One five passenger Ford automobile, Model 1920, serial No. , it being the property of one Charlie Smith.
