ENTERED AS SECOND-CLASS MATTES AUGUST <SQ, 1928, AT THE POST OFFICE AT TRYON, N. C., UNDER THE ACT OF CONGRESS, MARCH 3.1879 Wc[t fflrgon Jatlg pull din (The Smallest Daily Newspaper In The World) Vol. 9, Est 1-31-28 TRYON, N. C., MONDAY, FEB. 1, 1937 The Teen Age , G. N. Lowden, the G-Man, speak ing at the Rotary-Kiwanis meet ing last Friday, stated that more criminals are arrested at the age Jkof 19 than any other age. And that jrthe cost of crime in America was $15,000,000,000 yearly, Many jud ges and solicitors have made state ments that they have never had a Boy Scout to come before them for any criminal offense. Polk County is fortunate in having a group of men interested in promoting the Boy Scout movement here. They give money and time and make it possible to'have the supervision of a Scout Executive, an excellent Scoutmaster and a Boy Scout camp at Lake Lanier. Any parent who has a boy 12 to 16 is missing some thing if that boy is not in a Scout troop. Walden W.

Governor Explains Raleigh, Jan. 31 —Governor Hcey, who admits he Wouldn’t feel dressed without his coat-tails, bought his last sack suit 30 years ago , wore it one day and gave it away. A barber in the governor’s home town of Shelby is largely responsi ble for the tails, which are as much a part of the North Carolina chief executive’s dress as his high shoes, red boutonnieTe and stand up collar. Joking with reporters the other day, Hoey told the story this way: “I started wearing tails just about as soon as I graduated into long trousers. But 30 years ago I bought a sack suit, put it on and walked down to my barber’s. He looked at me for a minute or two and said: • “Mr. Hoey, there’s something wrong with the Way you’re dressed today. I can’t figure out what it is yet, but you don’t look right,” , “Then he saw my abbreviated coat and said reproachfully! “ Mr Hoey, you cut off your tails!’ “That night I gave the suit to my son. I’ve worn tails ever since.” The governor didn’t name the barber. Against NRA Mrs.. Lilly Taylor brought to Tryon Saturday from Sunnyview two large White Leghorn hen eggs that weighed 3 ounces each. That’s oveT-production for the eggs were the largest we have seen.
