SCB8CKITTI0K %IJ4 Ttr irnn n lien holders MUST ATTACH OR JUKE WRITTEN DEMAND TO ASSOCIATION Before He Cti T?ke Over Crop ? Grow er Hut >o Klght To Dispose Of Crop In Any Manner Except "So Associa tion*. The latest rulings by the Cotton anil Tobacco Growers Associations in regard to crops npon which liens or mortgages have been given will no doubt be of interest both to the grow ers and Hen holders. Both Associations have ruled that the grower has no right whatever to deliver his crop to anyone upon any order or demand except the Associa tion or upon its or a Court order, ex cept in so far as the claim is held by landlord for rent or advances for mak ing the crop. The Cotton Association has ruled that in any case where the lien hold er wishes to refuse the member the right to sell through the Association he must make formal written demand to the Association at its office in Ral eigh. The Tobacco Association has ruled thai.the Hen holder or mortgage must take out an attachment before the crop can be delivered \ipon hiB order. These rulings become necessary to protect the large number of loyal mem I vrs against the breaking of contracts i y a lew weak-kneed members who ? ? i v<l attempt to* evade their solemn ob I ion by claiming they had been or dvri.'. by their creditor to sell on the open .rarket, and to save the creditor from l.e embarrassment of having to cssist such an unscrupulous member to hold his friendship. It is well to call to mind here that neither of these ruling's are beybnd the requirements of the old laws that v. . re in force before the organization of these Associations, but are in fur therance of the desire>of each of the Associations to be lawabiding, and it is their construction of the law that surh action is required to be legal. Therefore all lien holders or mort gages who want to enforce the open sale are requested to take action along tl.ese or the accepted legal lines. o SERVICES AT ST. PAUL'S Sl'NDA* NEXT Rev.

Tucker died at Park View hospital In Rocky Mount on last Saturday morning atter a long and hard fight to regain himself fol lowing an operation for appendleitts. He was In his twentieth year and be sides his parents leaves a younger brother, and a host of relatives and f r lends ? His remains were brought to Loula burg Saturday and the funeral was conducted from ttfe Methodist church by Pastor G. F. Smith and aaslsted by Rev. J. A. Mclver. Pastor of the Baptist church, Sunday afternoon and were laid to rest In Oaklawn Ceme tery. The pall bearers, were Napier Williamson, Jno. Yarborough, Jr., Chas. Elmore, Robt. Alston, Harris Turner, George Ford . The newly made mound was cover ed with the-eholceat of flowers, tokens from loving relatives and friends while the choir sweetly sang. "He is gone! The problem that so long he studied, That mystery of the world to come ? profound. Is solved! His free- of life, which only budded Bears how full harvest In Ce lestial Grounds." It seems a pity that so young a life, with the promise pf so full a future should be taken Jttft as he was enter ing manhood. Bi^t the Lord In his Wisdom saw fit tq remove him from the trials of this life to enter a fuller and more beautiful life that Is all 'mystery to those he leaves behind. He was possessed of the stability of character and pleasing personality that won for him popularity among his Associates; and respect and es teem from his older acquaintances. The tenderest sympathy goes out to his bereaved parents, to whom words offer little consolation In their sad be reavement. Their cup Is full of sor row todays But may It please Al mighty God, to transform this sorrow Into the happiness of a knowledge that he has been called for a more grand and noble purpose, Is the prayer of their many friends, who are sharing in their grief. Both services were largely attend ed.
