It is a good thing that perpetrat
ing an illegible signature is not a
hanging criitnt this country -would
be depopulated. Wherefore it is well
necessary, in fact in writing a
business letter to have one's name
either printed or typewritten on the
sheet. Otherwise the one who under
takes to answer the letter may make
a wrong guess in addressing his let
ter. Some days ago ..the secretary
of the Lumberton Chamber of Com
merce received a letter from a Ral
eigh man inquiring about this town
as a location for an ice cream fac-l
tory. The letter was answered oour-!
teously and promptly, giving the in-,
formation requested and assuring the J
inquirer that any further informa-'
tion he might want in . enabling him 1
to decide would be gladly given. But
alas, the secretary guessed wrong as
to the signature, an the letter came
back to him, and the inquirer thinks,
no doubt, that the Lumberton Cham
ber of Commerce is careless about
answering such inquiries.
O :
Touching on and appertaining to
an advertisement on the first page
of the last issue of this paper, it is
"Raleigh News and Observer, Char
lotte Observer, New York World,"
cried a newsboy in a hotel in a dis
tant city. Master John Robert Boyd
of Lumberton was among the guests
at the hotel. "I don't care for any
of those," he gaid. bracing the newsie;
"Have you got a Robesonian, that's
the paper I read." Smart boy. He
knows a good thing and cannot be
stampeded into forgetting.
