FROM INGLESIDE
Hutson deplores gales stam

ket their tobacco more slowly for
better results.
"Nothing Is so pleasing to you
when you have obtained it, as It
was when you merely desired it."
Numerous as they are here di
vorces, are not confined to the
United States. According to sta-1
tlstics nearly 50,000 divorces
have been granted In England
since the World War.
Tobacco Is still being market-;
ed in large quantities it one Is to I
judge from the many truck loads
passing over this highway. And
batter prices are reported for the
grades more in demand. ,
Many of our farmers are seed
ing wheat and other grain during
the fine season for that work. It
is believed that more wheat has
been planted than In some form

Friends of Miss Claudia Rober

One good lesson that statistics
teach is, that it you want to live
a long life and a healthy one,
drink plenty of milk. The three
nations with the highest per cap
ita consumption of milk and its
products hsve also the longest
life span ? all In excess of 60
years.
Newton said a long time ago:
"If you do not practice friendship
among people you do not like, you
will not be able to make friends
with pfcople you do Ilka." '

How would this do for a sign,
painted In large letters, to' hang
over the head of the Judge In
every court house in the State.
It is from the Book by which we
take oath to tell the truth: A
false witness shall not be unpun*
ished and he that speaketh lies
shall not escape.
Judge Henry L. Stephen set a
precedent In the last court he held
In Loulsburg as to the false testi
mony of witnesses.

Wake Forest's 190 points In
six games to-date this season is
the highest team scoring mark in
the nation. In the last three gam
es, the Deacons have rolled up
131 points without yielding a
tingle point.
A good way to keep that love
from waning is to get a job and
work at it.
