Hunting Season
Endangers Lives
»» •__■
Sportsmen of Rowan
County Urged To Fol
low Rules of Safety
Already emblazoned in the head
lines of papers all over the countr;
one reads "Hunter Killed Acciden
tally.” Yes, that happens every sea
son and it seems that we would tak
warning and use the necessary cau
tion, but somehow, we don’t.
It is said that one generatioi
profits from the mistakes of othe
generations; that we learn to leav
off doing certain things when
glance into the past shows tha
those things are dangerous, but hot
true is this saying? It certain!
doesn’t prove true when it come
to hunting accidents, automobil
accidents and the like, does it?
Well, we all get the idea tha
we couldn’t do such a foolish thing
We wouldn’t drag a loaded gui
over, under or through a fence. Ni
—not us, we have too much sens
to do that. We wouldn’t get so in
terested in a hunt as to shoot at
moving bush and perhaps accident
ally kill our hunting companion.
Isn’t it peculiar that we can nev
er attribute such foolish acts ti
ourselves and yet right here ii
Rowan county some one is going ti
be seriously wounded, or perhap
killed by just such carelessness dur
ing the hunting season which i
now upon us?
Every season THE WATCH
MAN issues a warning to those whi
are planning to avail themselves o
the privileges and pleasures of th
hunt. Hundreds of sportsmen reai
these articles but fail to apply th
warning to themselves. We will b
adding our bit to the effort to cu
down this unnecessary toll of acci
dents if we offer here som
''Don’ts” to the hunters of Rowai
County. Here they are:
1. Don't point the muzzle o:
your gun at anything you don’
want to kill, whether the safety i
on or not.
2. Don’t lean your gun agains
anything where it may slip off, fal
down and discharge.
3. Don’t handle your gun by thi
-muzzle. The stock was made t<
take hold of.
4. Don’t pull a gun toward yoi
over, through or under a fence, o
out of a car, holding on to the bar
rel.
, 5. Don’t fail to unload your gur
before entering camp or your car
6. When walking with a gun
carry it pointed up, or at thi
ground, especially so if someone i
k
walking in front or behind you.
7. And, above all, don’t shoot at
moving shadows or crackling brush.
It may be your hunting partner in
stead of a deer.
Of course, there are many other
'don’ts" which could be mention
ed, but if all hunters bear the above
cautions in mind, there will be few
er hunting accidents during the
current season.

Transfer Certificates
Through Co. Agent
Legal transferrence of cotton
tax-exemption certificates from
one grower to another must be made
through the county agent’s office,
warns Dean I. O. schaub, of State
College.
Illegally transferred certificates
will be cancelled, he said, and the
cotton they were intended to cover
will be subject to the Bankhead
tax of five arid tWo-thirds cents a
pound: ' .• ’if’
To protect growers from fraud,
Speculators, or unfair practices in
the trading of certificates, provi
sion was made that all exchanges
must be made through the county
agent and. at the rate of four cents
a pound.
Schaub pointed out that it is also
illegal to sell a certificate to a per
son who is not a cotton grower.
■ However, it is permissable for gin
jners to go to the county agent and
jbuy certificates for a grower when
I the grower gives him written auth
orization to do so.
i When an illegal transfer is dis
covered, Schaub said, notice will be
• sent the collector of internal rev
enue and other persons involved in
| the transfer, including the county
Schaub also said that every dollar
spent for extra taxrexemptiqn cer
tificates goes to help growers who
failed to produce the full amtAint
of their allotments.
The sale of surplus gives the un
derproducer a form of crop insur
ance by enabling him to realize
four cents a pound for that part
of his allotment he failed to pro
duce. It also gives the overpro
ducer a' chance to sell his excess
cotton without paying the full
{amount of the Bankhead tajfT
MISSING CHILD FOUND
Four-year-old Jackie Gibbons,

Givens, 18, and said she had lived

Foundations Tell Inside Story
Of Fashions For Larger W omen !
*-]■ Mmc. LANE bpvamt l|
Noted Fashion Counselor
mmmm mmm rirn -rumvm*
U/HAT figure the Larger Woman
will o»t In the mutter ot dress is
at times determined by her choice
of foundation garments. They are
the Inside story ot what she should
wear. " ; ' '
To begin with, there are two ma
jor types of the Larger Woman
One. we stylists call regular, and
the other irregular., •
Sketched to the. right is a lady
of regular proportions, in an all
tn-one garment which is the type
she should wear She ie 44“ bust,
and may be anywhere from 40“
to 40”. hips.- And while : the lady
to the left doesn't meet these meas
urements, because she is an trreg
ular. she has achieved practically
the same results with two separate
garments. ■’
But, -if you are like the lady
to the left and your problem is a
large diaphragm, you would be
wise to wear a corset a few Inches
higher at the waistline, and a long
er brassiere attached to It. And re
gardless of type. If you are targe
through the shouldero, you should
be wearing a garment with built
up top, instead of shoulder straps
For extra control at the bust, there
are brassieres of heavier fabrics,
or all-in-ones with top of self-ma
terial—flat rather than shaped.
mmmmmu mmmm
■Though, If you prefer the more
youthful line at the bust, there are'
shaped ox uplift types both In bras
siere and all-in-one.
Both types of garments some
times have inner belts which offer
the double advantage of special
support, and the nice flat look of
an over-all top garment. Some are
fitted, with curved elastic bands, to
give particular support to pendul
ous abdomens.
The all-in-one shown here is.
made with, colled wire. Instead of,
ordinary boning. This looks like a
regular spring, flattened, and is
preferred by women Who don't
like stiff boning.
But whether you prefer the stiff
or the flexible boning, the garment
you choose should support, and at
the same time it should fit the
body in motion, it should be .so de
signed with Inserts, hookings, and
lacings as to give with every move
you make. 1 feel that , the Larger
Woman should be thoroughly at
ease In her elothes—at rest, at play,
or even running for a street car.
