Franklin ton, N. C. WARNING The following warning has be*n issued by the U. S. Treasury De partment and it is well for the public to observe: "Because of large losses suf-j fered by retail storekeepers and merchants in accepting checks on the Treasurer of the United States' bearing the FORGED endorsement of the payee, the U. S. Secret Service earnestly urges that you | secure positive identification BE FORE accepting the Government 1 check unless the person present-; lng same is known to you or your clerks to be tbe rightful payee. "It is a fact that the majority ! of WPA checks are cashed by the rightful owners in small stores lu j their immediate neighborhood and the payee is well known to the storekeeper. Therefore, it Is well to become immediately suspicious of a stranger who offers you a Government check, especially if 1 tbe address of the payee shown on the face of the check is locat- j ed at a distance from your stoie. j Inasmuch as the storekeeper who accepts a stolen and forged Gov- 1 eminent check is the loser, can tion should be exercised in cash ing them. A strictly enforced rule to demand Identification before cashing Government and other checks will eliminate losses to the , storekeepers." V Such good results are obtained 1 from the first McDowell County Horse and Cattle Show that the ! event will be made an annual ! affair, says Farm Agent >S. L. , Homewood. Residents of Roanoke.

Quoting further, they say: "The very first thing I do is to go to my Chiropractor, in whom I have learned to have the utmost confidence. This is because I have learned that the posture and ar rangement of the mechanical features of my body are vital to nerve tone and also indirectly to the correct functioning of my glands and organs. I have found through experi ence that the scientific adjustments ease tension and re lieve strained muscular tightness. The relaxation follow ing a visit to my Chiropractor is exhilarating."
