Mr. Hoover was the candidate of the Republican party but he will be the president of the American people. Governor Smith made a gallant fight and has earned the admiration of multitudes of people. The campaign is over. The voters of America have made their choice. The Courier hopes that as Chief Executive of the nation Mr. Hoover will abund antly justify the wisdom of the voters and that under him our country will move forward in all things that are good. While there are sore disap pointments in the Democratic party, which has been severely; torn by the stress of the cam-j paign, the bitter fight waged in j the party by Smith and anti- Smith adherents, and the pro-j hibition and other issues, there | is the consolation of the elec- i tion of Max Gardner and the j State ticket: i It is time now to forget the j bitter fight, patch up the diff-1 erences in the Democratic par- j ty and build for the future with j the hope and belief that the many causes of bitterness and strife are now removed by the vote of the people, and will not re-appear in future elec tions to cause strife and dis-j sention. The Courier urges the Dem ocracy of Rutherford county to re-unite, get together in full i fellowship and look to the fu ture. We must present a solid front to beat back any enroach ment of the Republicans, who must not be allowed to strengthen by bitterness and j factionalism among the Dem- j ocrats. Democracy is the only hope of the Southland. Forget all bitterness over the election, get together and save our land from the horde of negro voters who will be unleashed at the first opportunity given the Re publican party. The negro vote is the great est menace facing the South to day. It can only be forestalled by a united Democracy. H. B. MASK WILL CONDUCT FIELD DEMONSTRATION Rutherfordton, Nov. 6. On Wednesday morning, November 14, at 9:30 o'clock at the farm of Mr. J. O. Ledbetter who lives about 2 miles west of Rutherfordton on high way No. 20 there will be a field meeting. Mr. Ledbetter is conducting a corn demonstration and has plots where fertilizer tests are being tried out. One of these plots is fertilized with Nitrate of Soda, one with Acid Phosphate and Murate of Potash, the other plot has Acid Phosphate, Mu rate of Potash and Nitrate of Soda. Mr. Ledbetter also has a 5 acre test of fertilizers. These tests are conducted in co operation with the Chilean Nitrate of Soda Educational Bureau, the County Farm Agent and Mr. J. O. Ledbeter. Mr. Homer H. B. Mask, Field Agent for the Nitrate of Soda Bu reau will be present and talk on the value of fertilizers. Mr. Mask is one of the best fertilizer experts in the South and it is hoped that a number of farmers will come to hear him. The tests at Mr. Ledbetter's are well worth the time of any farmer to come and study them. There will be SB.OO in" prizes off ered to the persons that make the best guesses on the amounts these different plots will yield. Rutherford County spends thous ands of dollars for fertilizers each year and sometimes we may buy the wrong kind, so now is an opportunity to come and see just what fertilizers prove to be the best.

THE FOREST CITY COURIER, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1928 SANDY RUN SUNDAY SCHOOL ASSOCIATION MEETS Mooresboro, Nov. 6. —The Sandy Run Sunday School Association held a most interesting meeting with the Sandy Run church, Mooresboro, on Sunday afternoon, November The song service, led by Mr. Green was most inspiring. The devotional was by Rev. Stoudmire, who read four teen verses from the fifty-second chapter of Isiah. Prayer was led by Rev. Rimmer of Spindale. At the roll call of the churches, it was found that Spindale had the greatest number of representatives present, therefore winning the ban ner again. This church is showing great interest in the meetings, which should be an example to other churches. Mt. Pleasant (C) ran a close second in attendance. We won der why more churches do not send representatives to these meetings. It is not that the meeting is not ad vertised, as the secretary sends a notice of the meeting to every Sun day school superintendent a few days before the meeting is to be held. If the superintendents would read these notices to % their Sunday schools, and urge them to attend, perhaps the at tendance -would be more inspiring to the general superintendent of the j organization. The organization voted to make the count on the monthly j attendance basis, thus giving the j smaller Sunday schools an equal chance with larger schools to com pete for the attendance banner. Mr. G. C. Harrill, the general sup erintendent, was in charge of the meeting, and introduced Rev. Mr. Jenkins who brought an interesting message on the subject, "The Ideal Way". He handled his subject well and held his audience to the last word of his message. Benediction was pronounced by Mr. B. B. Smart. The next meeting will be held with the Holly Springs church.
