THE GLEANER
GRAHAM, N. 0 , APRIL 22, 1937
Local News
? Corn Planting time ? d o g
wood blooming ? old tradition.
? Just a week of April left to
taxpayers in which to list their
property for taxation.
? The special term of Superior
Court for the trial of criminal
cases will convene next Monday
with Jadge Cowper presiding.
? An old fashion Bquare dance
by the V. F. W. of Alamance
Post 192u was given Tuesday eve
ning at Gantz Lake. String mu
sic for the occasion.
? The Junior Order memorial
service at the Baptist church
Sunday morning was well attend
ed by the members and they
heard an excellent sermon by
Rev. R. P. Ellington, himself a
member of the Order.
? It appears there will not be a
great many changes in appraised
value of property for taxation ex
cept in new constrnction during
the past year. From year to year
these matters are readjusted and
new values are taken care of.
? It will require 1999 petition
ers to make it mandatory that
the County Commissioners order
an election on the liquor store
plan provided for by the Legisla
ture. Starting this work the pro
ponents needed abont 400 more
signers, which they are confident
of securing.
? A late news item says wheat
prices took the worst decline in
years a few days ago. It did not
say when or if the decline would
reach the house wife's pantry
budget. You know it is a long
way between the wheat trading
market and the kitchen pantry
bin.
? A goodly number of Miss
Christine Young's Graham friends
attended her recital at Elon Col
lege Tuesday evening. Miss
Young, talented in music, will
graduate at the commencement
and receive her music diploma.
Miss Young is the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Young.
? It is of interest to note that
Mayor George Isley of Raleigh
has been nominated for re-elec
tion. He is a native of Alamance
and a son of John H. Isley of
Burlington. Once before, only a
few years ago, an Alamance man,
not a naiive, but made his home
in Graham a few years and mar
ried an Alamance girl, was mayor
of Raleigh. It was T. B. Eldridge
who moved his residence from
Graham just 55 years ago this
month.
? Burlington has a real fight
on for her schools. The voters
will say next Tueseay whether
they are willing to pay a little
more tax that their children may
have much better school advan
tages. It's a bold statement to
make: If the plan is defeated, it
will be by those whose children
most need better schooling. The
best things that come to individ
uals and communities are not
purely hand-outs, but the things
they get by sacrifice and work.
? Revival services will be held
at Graham Friends church, begin
ning, Sunday, May 9th, conduct
ed by Mrs. Perchie Key of Galax,
Va., who conducted a very suc
cessful revival service at this
church last October. Good sing
ing will be an attractive part of
the service. This will be led by
Rev. John M. Permar, the pastor,
assisted by Mrs. Permar. The
services will be held each eve
ning at 7:30. Everybody is in
vited.
The Furniture Show.
The chief attraction In Graham
this week is the Green <fc McClare
Style Furniture Show. Hundreds
visit it and admire it daily since
the opening. It closes Saturday
night and those who miss it will
really miss seeing something that
is both pleasing and attractive.
It wonld be a long story to un
dertake to describe it as it is and
deserves. Both floors of their big
store has been divided into nu
merous compartments in which a
different style of chamber, living
and dining room suits is dis
played. The kitchen is also tak
en care of handsomely.
Everything necessary to make
the home attractive and comfort
able is shown. There is a style
and a price that will fit in every
home.
If yon would appreciate the
show, you must see it. A word
picture will not give you what
yon want.

YOU HAVE decided on the number of acres
planted to cotton this year. The "size" of those
acres depends upon the yield and quality of the
crop they produce and the profits which they re
turn. Cotton rust and wilt decrease the size of a
cotton acre. There was more cotton rust in the
South last year than ever before reported. Cotton
rust ia potash hunger. To control rust and also to
reduce wilt, apply 50- 100 pounds of muriate of pot
ash in a nitrogen-potash top-dresser immediate
ly after chopping if your fertilizer at planting did
not contain enough potash. Consult your county
agent or experiment station on your soil require
