I Dreaded Aches, PAINS Disappeared "My health had been poor for ten years, before I took Cardui," says Mrs. Anna Cronin, of Rockport, Ind. *1 was lifeless and 'no account*. I dragged around day after day, every move an effort, and never feeling the joy of being well "At times, I had a dreadful ache across my back, and my sides hurt me. I worried along, sometimes hardly able to leave my bed, but the de mands of a growing family had to be attended to; so I would get up, do what was absolutely necessary, and then lie down again. •"One day, someone suggest » ed Cardui to me. I tooK it gS for several months, and all jjS the time I was growing |2 stronger, and less nervous. My aches and pains finally disappeared. 15 "That was two years ago. gg My improvement has been permanent. The good health, which followed the taking of Cardui, is still with me, so I do not hesitate to recommend it to my friends." t ia4 ! jgCARPU A Distinctive Feature of this youth is his far sighted ness; he was thanking a patent medicine Dr. for the wonder ful results obtained from the use of his medicine; when ask -9 ed how many bottles he had taken, replied: I didn't take any of it; my uncle'took one bottle and I'm his sole heir."

THE FOREST CITY COURIER, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1927 COMPULSORY ! SCHOOL LAW WILL i BE ENFORCED; - R. E. Price, School Attendance Officer, Calls Attention to Law and Its Require ments | "The Compulsory School law will Ibe enforced in Rutherford County, jas far as Tam able, with the help of j the teachers, committeemen and j friends of education", says R. E. j Price, School Attendance officer of | the county. The law is reasonable. If j a child is sick and unable to attend ! school, it is the duty of the parents jto notify the teachers. If parents j must have a child, or their children, j to work a day -or two they must first i get permission from their teacher or j principal. The law requires teachers ito report all unexcused, unlawful I absences. I | All mill superintendents and other ; public spirited citizens of the county j are asked to help co-operate to en j force the compulsory school'law. Re i port all children that you know are | well and between the ages of seven to fourteen years that are not in school to their teacher, or principal. This j is a fight against ignorance, one of i the greatest curses to mankind. No child, under sixteen years of j age, who has not completed the \ fourth grade, or more in school, can not work more than eight hours per | day in any mill or factory in North Carolina. When parents keep their children j out of school, within the compulsory age, without a lawful and reasonable excuse, they violate the criminal law of North Carolina. This is a serious thing to do. Following is the State Compulsory school law in brief: Chapter 100, Acts of 1919 Section 1. Every parent, guardian, ! or other person in the State of North j Carolina having charge or control of j a child between the ages of SEVEN ! and FOURTEEN years shall cause such child to attend school continu ously for a period equal to the time which the public school in the dis trict in which the child-resides shall be in session. The principal, super- j intendent, or teacher who is in charge of such school shall have the right to excuse the child from temporary at tendance, on account of sickness or distance of residence from the school or other unavoidable cause which does not constitute truancy as defined by the State Board of Education. Section 2. Any parent, guardian, or other person referred to in section one of this act, violating the provis ions of the aforesaid section, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction shall be liable to a fine of not less than five dollars ($5), nor more than twenty-five dollars ($25), and upon failure or refusal to pay such fine, the said parent, guardian, or other person shall be imprisoned not exceeding thirty days in the county jail. Section 3. The county superinten dent of public welfare or chief school attendance officer or truant officer provided for by law shall, investigate and prosecute all violations of the provisions of section one of this act. BOILING SPRINGS WINS GAME, 18-0 Boiling Springs, Nov. 7.—With Captain Thompson out with a frac tured leg Boiling Springs continued their winning streak by taking their fifth straight high school game from Chesnee, 18-0. The features of the game were the runs of Hammett, Tipton, Walker and Irvin as a back field quartet and the ljne playing of Powell and Moore for the visitors. SHELBY STAR MAY LAND BIG HONOR Shelby, Nov. 7.—Laymon Beam, Shelby high's star back and an All- State pick, has some chance of be ing named on the All-Southern high eleven this year, judging by queries coming in for the speedy's boy's rec- j ord. When Shelby defeated Kings j Mountain in the state race here Fri- j" day Beam made two of the touch-' downs on line plunges and ran his total of five games to seven touch downs, or 42 points. The 150-pound youngster played in the line two years before going in the backfield and the result is that he is better ihan the usual back on defensive Dlay. Beam passes, snags passes and lits the line, but his specialty is in j the broken field act. . ! Never tell a man that his boy ooks like his mother if he owes you aoney.
