1 HE GLEANER GRAHAM, N. C., JUNE 18, 1936 ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY J. D. KEKNODLE, Editor. $1.00 A YEAR, IN ADVANCE. ?n??r*d HIM 'aMlM tiOrtht*. R. a. ?? <M" tu-dlaw matMr. f Save Your Baby Bonds World War veterans will have plenty of advice about what to do with their Baby Bonds. A majority of them will be cashed at once and the money all spent inside of a year with little or nothing to show for it. If the bonds are kept, the money will not be spent. Money is about the easiest thing in the world to get rid of ? it flows out when kept abont the per son. Some will advise cashing and investing in something that pays better. That can be done ? will be done in many cases, but will it be as safe? There is no safer security than a government bond. If the bonds are "salted down" they Ttrfe safe. They grow in value every day. Wise financiers and investors put their savings in government bonds. You can do the same. If not urgently needed for im mediate use, then save. The interest on the issue of Baby Bonds would afford a modest annual income, enough to live on, for 100 thousand families and still leave the orig inal face value of the bond. Save your bonds if you can. Don't spend them until it is ab solutely necessary. You have a good investment. Dr. McDonald is already in his campaign and arranging speaking dates. Mr. Hoey has not yet announced any speak ing dates. Congress is hoping to get through with the business in the hopper and adjourn Dot later than Saturday. The tax bill is about the only obstacle in the way, and differences on that Bcore are tentatively com posed. Senator D. U. Fletcher, 77, of Florida died suddenly at his apartment in Washington Wed nesday morning. He had been U. S. Senator for 27 years. He was chairman of the committee on banking and currency. On May 8th, his colleague, Senator Park Trammell of Florida, died, both Senators passing in less than two months. Alamance County had a large delegation present at the State Democratic Convention in Ra leigh last Friday. A platform was adopted and there was much speaking. The platform recommends the removal of the sales-tax from necessities. Mr. Hoey and Dr. McDonald, the gubernatorial candidates in the ? second primary, accept the platform as satisfactory. Last Monday was a big pay day ? Uncle Sam's biggest, for on that day he sent out 28 mil lion, 94 thousand 895 separate bonds. These went in 2 million, 670 thousand 514 envelopes con taining an average of $550 each. These went to the veterans of the world war as adjusted com pensation. That is not all ? there will be pensions to pay. Perhaps no pne now living will be living when the last of the cost of a war, not our own, is paid, provided the government of the United States endures. The National Democratic con vention will meet in Philadel phia next week. The National Republican cou vention i n Cleveland unani mously nominated Gov. Alf M. Landon of Kansas for president and Col. Frank Knox of Chica go for vice-president last Thurs day night and Friday. In a five-year period, accord ing to reports coming out from Washington, the population of the United States increased nearly five million. Some States, ten of them, are listed as having lost population in the period. Conservative North Carolina with a larger percent of native population than any other state of the UnioD, was not one of the losers, but is credited with a gain of 246,724. North Car olina now stands 12th in point of population, now placed at 3,417,000. Geo. Ross Pugk Expresses Appreciation.

You'll find the Baltimore American on sale by all newsdealers. Chinese, Efyptiuu and Peruana Land Flower* Chili* (howl til* earliest record of the um of plenti and flowers for dec oration. Flowen and religion are closely united Id all their early history, ao the Chinese used to offer flowers as presents to their cods and to the de parted relatives they worshiped as part of their religion. The way these facts are determined Is by the paint ings on old tapeatrles, vases, and pot teries which symbolized the actions of the people The predominating flower In the early history was undoubtedly the peony, as It la found depicted on nearly all the works of art. In Egypt also, the history of flowers was closely bound to that of religion, for here, too, the people placed flowers on the altars and made certain flowers sacred to certain deities. The part that plants played Is learned more eas ily than from Chinese history because the Egyptians clearly depicted their thoughts. Although the use of planta In Per ala waa largely Influenced by the Chi nese and Egyptians, the Persians still maintained a distinct character. The hanging gardens of Babylon may bare constituted the most famous piece of landscape work of ancient times; this so-called wonder of the world was ac complished by terracing a steep hill side; the ultimate effect was that of many gardens hanging on the hill aide. As Persia la a hot, sandy country, their decorative plantings had three main features in landscape design : wa ter, trees, and grass. With them, flowers and color were relatively un important Buckwheat Traced 2,000 Years Buckwheat cakes, good old stand-by of the breakfast snd luncheon table generally regarded to be as 100 per cent American and native as snythlng could be, are. It turns out. actually an ancient Tibetan dish. Itcsesrches la connection with the early hlatory. origin and distributluu of the world'a cultivated and useful plants, trace buckwheat hack to Asia and Indicate that It was there cultlvsted for st least 2.000 years. The Tlbetsns snd ether mountsln tribes related to them, living in the Himalaya region, were the original buckwheat oultlvatora and the first buckwheat cake eaters. They produced a complete buckwheat cul ture complex, grinding the buckwheat Into flour and making the flour Into cakes, gruel and beer. They even 1 utilised the straw of the plant as fod I der la the winter. Among some of ; thee* hill tribes buckwheat still forms the principal crop tod the staff at Ufa. Ho?y Slogan ? "Let's Finish the Job" Raleigh, June 15. ? "Let's fin ish the job." Thia is the slogan of Hoey-for- Governor workers all over the State th&se days, said Hubert E. Olive, manager of Clyde Hoey's campaign for the Demo cratic nomination for Governor. "Working in harness with the men and women who did each splendid work for8andy Graham, we are going aBead at fall speed." the manager continued. "Mr. Hoey and myself have been delighted with the response of the Graham forces, 90 percent of which are continuing their fight against McOonaldism. Instead of having a let down following the first primary, we picked up speed, due to the help of the Grxhain workers." Members of Hoey headquarters staff here said they were glad that McDonald called for a second primary. It is their contention thnt a second primary was neces sity to "iiuislr^he job" begun by Hoey, Graham and McRae camps during the first primary. They even tell a story that Marshal Foch, head of the allied forces during the World War, wept when Germany signed the armistice be cause he believed that it would be to the benefit of tl>e entire world to go on to Berlin and "finish the job." It was lucky for North Carolina, these Hoey workers contend, that McDonald did call for a second primary in that it made it possible for the Hoey- Graham- McRae allies to go "ou to Berlin." "But don't think we are going to be the victims of over confi dence," Mr. Olive added. "We know that there is still a lot of work to be done and we are doing it. Every county manager, every worker in our organization, knows that this job will not be completed until the sun sets July 4." Vitamin* Always There; Ever Played Their Part The Idea that vitamins exist alone In the various foods and that s sufficient variety must be fed If all are to be Included in the ration Is one that Is likely to be obtained from the litera ture discussing them. The emphasis placed upon a certain food's content of some particular vitamin may lead to the conclusion that no other vitamin can be found In that food. Aa a mat ter of fact, declares a correspondent In the Rural New-Yorker, the known vitamins are widely distributed in practically all foods, any one of these containing several. Certain foods, however, are richer in a designated vitamin than others and, if that vita min is particularly wanted, the food containing it is given preference over other foods holding less. As with all discoveries, that of the role played by vitamins in nutrition has led to an emphaals upon their value that has obscured other things of equal importance. One cannot live upon vitamins alone, and no one or several vitamins can accomplish all thlnga In nutrition. Food is still food, and the fact that certain nutritive principles contained in It have been discovered does not alter the fact that these principles were there before their discovery and that they played their necessary parts as well before they become known ss now. Mammoth Cave Discovered by ? Hunter in Year 1809 Uammoth Cave, the largest known cavern In the world, was discovered in 1800 by a hunter named Hutchlns, relates a writer in the Cleveland Plain Dealer. The cave is situated in Ed monson county, Kentucky, near Green river, about 125 miles southwest of Lexington. There are several streams In the cava, the principal one being Echo river, which is nearly three-quar ters of a mile long and. communicates with Green river. The Styx, about *50 feet long. Is crossed by a remarkable natural bridge. There are avennea which extend for ml lea, and great chambers spacious enough to hold skyscraper office build ings. All of the halla offer to view a great variety of crystals and Incrus tations, stalagmites and stalactites, and with the cataracts and fountains form a most picturesque scenery. Trips through the cave ars arranged at certain hours under the direction of sxpert guides. An entrance to the csve, opened several years ago, has a trip which Includes on Its route Rob ertson avenue, discovered in Septem ber. 1921, It contains the most re markable and beautiful formations la Uammoth cava ? Astronomy Table Used by Columbus Is Found 8eville, Spain.? Prof. E. Zlnner of the Bamberg (Germany) observatory, announced discovery of the astronom ical tables used by Christopher Colum bus la bis voyage which led to the discovery of America in 1402. The tables, he said, were those of Johsnn lluller, a scientist from Koe nlgsberg, and were entitled "BegUmon tanoa." The edition which Columbus used was published In 1481 and con tained various marginal notes In the explorer's own handwriting, Zlnner ?aid. Too Poor to Propose By BETTY STRONG C> by llcdurt Newspaper Syndlcat*. WNU 8*rvle# Tr DORIS WRITE bad not fallen Id ^ to his arms. Bob Richard* would oerer bare given her another thought He was clumping op the laat flight of dark, oilcloth covered stalrC when he heard a little gasp and then some thing soft and yielding was flung bead first Into bis arms. Be caught her aa easily as he had caught the ball when he was fielder, and baring set her on her feet gently asked In bis big voice with the trace of busklness In tt, "Hurt anyj" She breathed quickly, and answered. 1 ? I guess you saved my life I" There was Just the suggestion of a laugh In that voice that went straight to Bob's heart "Ton see, I must have caught my toe in the oilcloth," she explained. Bob thought she had the softest, sweetest voice he had beard for a long time. "I think my dinner Is forever lost!" Doris said sadly, stooping to feel about the stair*. They found at last the head of let tuce, the two rolls still In their bag and the lemon that was to help make np the dinner. In the process they said several things to each other, al together trite and yet somehow most illnmlnnHny So It waa not strange that the second time Bob ran Into the occupant of the hall bedroom be lifted his hat and stopped to talk. The third time they met. Bob asked directly, "Would you take a walk with me this afternoon?" The faintest tinge of color showed through Doris* white skin and she said ?for It was Saturday? "I'd love to I" They walked along Fifth avenue, stopping before the shop windows to peer In and feeling a part of all the thrill and stir of an afternoon on the avenue. Doris eyes were shining and she was acta ally prettier each time Bob Richards looked down at her. Tha next Saturday It rained and Doris hesitated and then knocked at tha door on the second floor that bore the card: "Robert Richards." "I thought you might hare tea with me. It's such a cold, dismal kind of afternoon," Doris offered shyly. At the answering gleam of pleasure In his eyes Doris hurried up the flight of stairs. She knew it would mean that she must lunch meagerly all the following week, but she bought crump ets ? toasted them over her gas burner ? and a tiny Jar of marmalade, and a spray of narcissus to put In the bowl by the window. At his loud rap she opened her door and smiled up at him. Bob laid down a box of candy as he said, 1 bought It for the party," and looked about him curiously. For It was tha oddest hall bedroom ha had ever seen. He had imagined a room with a bureau and an Iron bed, and enough room Just to sit on the one chair. What he saw was a room with two windows and an alcove, a room that looked sunny In spite of the fact that It was raining, because the walls were yellow and charming sun ny colored chlntx hung at the windows and covered the cushions of the two brown tinted wicker chairs. Gleaming brass candlesticks were on a table in the corner, a brilliant color print of blue mountain and an icy mountain brook hung over the gray painted table. A couch under a tum ble of cushions ? and a black luster bowl held the frail narcissus in the window. Doris sitting down at the table pour ing tea Into clear yellow cups, he sud denly saw as another girl. A girl re moved from his own hard struggles by all the beauty of this charming room. Why, she must earn more in a week than he did to have a place like this I For a month Doris scarcely saw the owner of the room on the second floor. When ahe did meet him by chance, he hurried past her with an abrupt "Good evening I" But once when she climbed the two flights of stairs and saw tlflft Bob's door was open and a strange girl was standing by the black marble mantel piece, her heart seemed like a piece of lead. She could scarcely drag herself away. "Oh, do yon live on the floor above?" tha strange girl asked eagerly. "I've seen your room and It la. so pretty?" Doris answered, wondering how ahe could go on talking when the bottom of her little world had dropped out "1 bought the hanglnga on Sixth ave nue at a sale, and the candlesticks In Allen street for $1.25; you can find soma second-hand furniture and paint it yourself; oh, yea, m show you how." She smiled wistfully and went on up tha stairs. But tha blood thrummed in her eara madly when aha heard clumping steps behind her. Doris turned to see Bob Richards coming toward her with a bewildered, dawning happiness in his eyes. "X heard what you said," he began, "1 had to come back. I thought I'd go away and try to forget you? for I knew I couldn't ask a girl with all you had to marry a poor fellow like ?aa. Ton mean It, Doris, yon fixed up that room out of nothing r He caught her hands and looked down Into her eyee. "Don't you know I love your "But ? " ahe whispered. 1 was ashamed to aak a rich girl to marry me," he said as he took her | In his arms. "It u far better to be alone than to be found m bad company m I JIJNF 1 1?
