Horton, HOW THAT I KNOW ' ...I ONLY WISH I’D BOUGHT A Fewer trips to the market—sup plies bought for a week instead of for a day or two—meals planned for days ahead, these are some t NO- the advantages of owning a Norge. To get them in full meas ure, he sure the Norge you buy is large enough. Norge owners report savings up to $11 a month. Those sav ings are brought about by buying in bargain quantities at bargain prices—using left-overs—elimi nating waste. In the Norge you ^ sure of plenty of cold. The '^surplus-powered Rollator cold making mechanism takes care of that. ^ it is only a question of storage space. Refrigerating ex perts estimate on a basis of two cubic feet for each member of the family. You want the many advantages of Rollator Refrigeration. See the Norge that is exaaly suited to your needs. THE ROLLATOR— Smooth, easy, roll ingpouter instead of the harried back- and-forth action of the ordinary refrig erator mechanism. Result—more cooling pouter for the current used and a mechanism that actu ally improves with use. r ■ - ,i»} I . 'f IpitM the .tollowlwf program. B.

TELLS AIM OF WINE AND LIQUOR GROUP re- news- “C” Strest Phone 101 North Wilkesboro, N. C. The following article, taken from the Carolina Christian Ad vocate. is reprinted at the quest of readers of this paper: For Both Drj's Wets The second annual Wine and Liquor convention at Hotel Ste vens, Chicago, March 11-15, had as its favorite slogan, “Make American wiiie and liquor con scious.” Here are some of the timely advice given by the executives and sales experts; “Teach American women how to drink. . . . Invite and welcome them to your bars and tap rooms." “Show young people how to enjoy the ‘delightful’ wines of America.” “Cultivate the public, don’t worry about politicians. We con trol millions of votes and llirough them the industry can be preserved.” “Adapt and aim your adver tising so as to arrest the atten tion of the factory workers of our great cities; the miners of Pennsylvania; the farmers of Nebraska, and the particular in dividual groups of every local ity.” “There is no liquor volume possible through advertising ap peal addressed purely to the so cially elite of the upper classes.” “We need to understand the habits of women and the young er generation. Train your pub licity to catch the eye and de velop the interest of the younger generation.” “Make youth liquor conscious, .‘lake it smart to drink wine.” “Develop and cement profit able co-operation with local newspapers in every community. Remember that, basicaliy, the local newspaper is your key to sales, the reason for this being that it goes directly into the home. . . . Use your local news paper and depend upon the co operation of the press which you will thereby deserve.’’ "Liquor never was and is not now a moral issue. Up to now there has never been a concen trated effort made to instill a conscience into the liquor busi ness.” “Nothing counts like making a profit.” m “Don’t forget the fifteen mil lion votes which made repeal possible. Cultivate and please them and the future of your business is secure.’’ “We are opposed to local op tion. I think I voice the thought of the 15 million who voted for repeal. Local option bree^ds class distinction. Get the support of your own community. Eradicate trade jealousies.” ‘"rhe liquor industry should go on the radio with up-to-date program.?, with feature stars and snappy script, identified with prominent names.’’ Rmew Of J.F.Fletdier’* “A Hittory of A>lwT™'’J- Coufify aad[New River BaptUt Afneiatioiu” ^'(By iRA T. JDHNSTONr Rev. J. F. Fletqlier, who has labored as a - minister and mis sionary In the Baptist churches of Ashe county, Korth Carolina, and Grayson county, Virginia, for more than half a century, has written a history recounting tbe origin and development of the Baptist Associations in this section which should some day find Us way Into every Baptist home and library in Northwest North Carolina and Southwest, Virginia. This history, based up on personal recollection, pains taking Investigation, and persist ent recurrence to the original sources of Information, contains a wealth of material not avail able anywhere else. Across the pages of this man uscript march Baptist pioneers and heroes, such as George Mc Neill, Drury Senter, Enoch Reev es, Aaron Johnston, Richard Gentry, Richard Jacks, James Eller, J. J. L. Sherwood. T. M. Duncan, Elihu Tucker, P. H. Laire, and a host of others. In stirring phrases, there is present ed a panoramic glimpse of their tolls and labors which have led over winding trails to the pres ent position occupied by our great denomination i n these mountains. I consider that interest in this history should not be confined to Baptists. Leaders of other de nominations can learn from its pages much about the early re ligious history of this section; and even secular readers will be thrilled by its moving picture of a great people on their highway of destiny. Momentous events in the life of Ashe, Alleghany, WVIkes and Grayson counties are interwoven in the thrilling nar rative of a church grappling with its problems, often divided by moral or political issues such as temperance and slavery, split by the sword of fratericidal strife and by hones and deep seated metbodi^ and a dl^HNwn^b OT«r mlflBloaii^vtjs Primiilfo Baptists, Ublon Bap tists,'^Missionary Baptist wilUo- llke find an unbtalffHl story the soil in which they took root, written by a great Missionary with a mind unclouded preju dice, a vivid memory of men and events and a deep love for God and his fellowmen and the lo cality which gave him birth and to* whom he has devoted'bis life Rev. _Mr.' Fletcher modestly says: “t believe It will be help ful. I have had access to records that few have seen and . have been privileged to labor for well over fifty years, shoulder to shoulder with the men and wo men who have made Baptist hiS' tory in these mountain counties. ... I have done the best I could . . . For this history I claim no great literary merit but I be lieve It to be accurate* I know that I have garnered from hun dreds of obscure sources, all un known to the average historian, many fragments of history that might have been lost but for my humble efforts and If the com pleted story, as it is set down here, proves interesting to those who love the Baptist cause and helpful to students and histor ians of the future, my labor will not have been In vain.” This book has just been print ed on the personal guarantee of a number of Ashe county citi zens and printing bills must be paid from the sal© of the books. The local committee in charge have as their first purpose the j placing of this book in the hands i of our Baptist people. Incidentl- j ally, it will be necessary to raise’ enough money to defray the ex penses of publication and distri bution. The book is an attractive lit tle volume printed on a good quality of paper and contains cuts of Rev. Mr. Fletcher and his wife, Mr. James Eller, Rev. Tucker, Hoh.’ J. B. Spain- hour, Bev.
