Aerial Review 9 a.m. Exercises at Post Theatre 10:30 a.m. That business in Roanoke Rapids is better is further indicated by the report of the Roanoke Rapids Post Office for the quarter ending Sept. 30th, showing an increase in postal receipts of over 30 per cent over the same quarter last year.

Call R337 for further informa tion.—The above appeal speaks for itself. They would like to give the youngsters in the graded schools some entertainment via the air but there is no way for the schools to purchase equipment like this. Anyone with an old radio they would be will ing to donate would be welcomed with open arms. Or a donation toward the purchase of a second hand radio would be gladly accepted.

From Sept. 28 to Oct. 2, the following showed perfect attendance records: 4th grade Clara Hearne School, Miss Kimbrough, teacher; 4th grade Rosemary School, Miss Rebecca Price, teacher ; 4th grade Central School, Miss Mary Hix, teacher. Messrs. O. Griffin and D. P. Wyke spent Wed nesday at Bailey, N. C., where they attended a Ma sonic Convention and barbecue dinner. SILVER SPRINGS, Fla., (Special)—Among the many tourists who spent a day at Silver Springs recently, viewing the unparalleled beau ties of The Nation’s Underwater Fairyland from electrically driven, glass bottom boats was the fol lowing resident of Roanoke Rapids: Clara Louise Ruth, Roanoke Ave. Dr. Norton of Raleigh, of the N.

This is one we would like to print but we can’t get started on that. The letter was written to us and said that while the writer is very grateful for the wage increase just announced by the mills You Cannot Match AGATES vs. GLASSIES “Glassies” as we remember them from our boyhood marble playing days were despised imitations of agates, the true aristo crats of the game. At sight, they were hard to tell apart—but, woe unto the boy who tried to play glassies for agates. All con fidence and respect for him fled, and he was quickly scorned in all business relations. LAND BROS, operate upon the same principle which this moral teaches. Inferior merchandise and second-hand standards of doing business are taboo. Our trade is conducted on the tested grounds of CONFIDENCE. Our integrity and desire to be of superior service throughout this section is well-recognized. LAND BROS.
