LARGE NUMBER ATTEND BALE PER ACRE BANQUET fifty-Seven Cool Springs Town ship Men Attend Banquet in Charlotte —Delega- tion Awarded Two Trophies. Cool Springs department of vo cational agriculture was represent vi\ at the "Bale-per-Acre" banquet L Charlotte last Friday, by 57 L irniors and students. This banquet. Nvhich brought together 600 farm ers from the 16 counties in the Charlotte district, was given by the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce an d the Chilean Nitrate of Soda Educational Bureau. Rutherford county was well represented. The four agricultural schools had 150 representatives at the banquet. The Cool Springs delegation brought back two prizes. Clark Math env won first prize in the district for students of agriculture. His cotton project of 5 acres of Coker cotton had the best yield of any student in the 22 schools in the Charlotte district. It is highly pro bable that he will also receive state prize for students, as his record is much ahead of any reports so far in, but there are some schools not heard from. Sam Ruppe, of the Oakland section won third prize in the state for farmers who used Chilean Ni trate of Soda. Mr. Ruppe's jirize riot was the same one that won first place in the county last year. Cool Springs had the second largest yield in the state also, in the plot of Mr. Tom Harris of Alexander, but this plot was not entered in time to win a prize. The banquet was held in the Cham ber of Commerce building in Char lotte and was preceded by a parade of the farmers and students. The speakers were: Arthur Dixon of, Gastonia, president of the American j Cotton Mfg., Association; The Mayor of Charlotte, the president and sec retary of the Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Boyd, Southern district repre -1 sentative of the Chilean Nitrate of ' Soda Educational Bureau, Roy 11.

More and more residents of our small towns and rural communities are coming to realize that even though the auto has provided them with a quick means of reaching the big city stores, there are many drawbacks to doing their shopping there. The problem of parking is the most general one. With thousands of city car owners clamoring for park ing places the outsider finds it next to impossible to find a place for his car. If it is stored in a garage or parking lot there is a charge of from 25c to 75c. Then, too, there is. al ways the danger of violating a park ing law or traffic ordinance, and perhaps paying out as much in the shape of* a fine as you would have spent in shopping. Again, if you find a parking place the time is so limit j ed that you have to keep fretting and | Worrying for fear you will leave the jcar a few minutes overtime and find fl ON DISPLAY TODAY | fcl '1045- I 41« '• I n r\ • I r' I ■ ment of the New Oakland Eight.

These are but a few of the many drawbacks faced by those who shop in the city. But thex.are unknown in Forest City and will be for long years to come. For that reason the wise resident of the small town or rural district steers clear of the big city as much as possible and does busi ness with his home merchants. He has learned that in doing so he can save time, money, annoyance and possible arrest and fine. And he will still maintain the friendship of his neighbors who are engaged in busi ness here at home. CARD OF THANKS. We wish to thank our many friends and neighbors for the many acts of kindness and sympathy shown dur ing the illness and fleath of our hus band and father. May God's richest blessings be on you. Mrs. Elijah Daves and Family. Fire Siren Causes Great Excitement When the siren over the city hall went off Monday evening, after the alarm had been turned in that the Forest City Oil Mill was on fire, a great many people in Forest City were greatly alarmed. Already ex cited over the the tragic accident that occurred Monday morning at Sandy Mush when one of the county's most prominent men met his death, and after officers had been searching all for the driver of one of the cars, who is charged with murder and who escaped; when the fire siren went off it is believed that a great many people thought they had captured the man and wanted the people to know it, or that they had captured the man and a mob was trying to lynch him. Of course when they saw the fire truck go out they knew it was really a fire that had caused the disturbance but they had already turned out by the hundreds. A great many of them went on to the fire, however, and watched the firemen put out a blaze, that were it not for quick and effi cient work on their part, would have resulted; in thousands of dollars damage.
