was predicted, and a platform was
adopted.
According to reports this was a
hot convention. The hot:
the auditorium wliere> the 2,400
delegates steamed and sweated was
hot. A hot keynote speech was made
by temporary chairman Varser, of
Lumberton, who was hot when he
'finished. Even Josiah W. Bailey, who
generally keeps cool even in July,
was hot after giving the Republi
can party a very heating brand of
hades and , subjecting President
Hoover to a verbal Turkish bath.
But it remained for Governor O.
Max Gardner to get things really
heated up to the proper pitch, when
in his short speech he really sounded
the keynote of the convention and
declared that the Democratic party
in North Carolina had kept faith
with the people, had been true to its
promises and in spite of "Hoover
prosperity," Republican unemploy
ment. and the depression in prices
caused by the Hoot-Smalley or Smoot-
Ilawley high tariff bill, had been
able to bring about a material re
duction in taxes, at the same time
materially reducing the indebted
ness of the state by more than
$8,000,000.
Governor Gardner characterized
the convention as a most inspiring
sight, despite the heat, and declared
that the Democrats of North Caro
lina are now 'organized, harmonized
r>nd ready for the kick-off," ready
to stand by the record of the party
during the past 30 years.

Cook Vegetables
Quickly And With
Little Water
W hen vegetables cannot be served
raw, they should be cooked as quick
ly and with as little water as possi
ble.
Cooking has a tendency to des
troy some of the necessary vitamins
and if the vegetable is cooked in
water some of the valuable mineral
salts ar e left in the liquid," says Miss
Mary E. Thomas, nutrition special
ist at State college. "Baking and
boiling are the best methods to use
in cooking vegetables if these ele
ments are to be saved, but, since
boiling is most popular, care should
be taken that the loss is not great."
When a vegetable is to be boiled
have the water boiling when the
vegetable is put in and then bring it
to the boiling point again as qhickly
as possible. This tends to retain the
food value as well as the natural
color and flavor, says Miss Thomas.
In cooking green vegetables, leave
the vessel uncovered to retain the
natural color.
I According to Miss Thomas, ten to
j fifteen minutes is long enough to cook
most leafy vegetables and the cook
ing should never exceed thirty min-_
utes. Overcooking causes a great
loss in food value and makes the
vegetables tasteless and mushy.
The size of th e vegetable also has
much to do with its food value, says
[Miss Thomas. To get the greatest
benefit, vegetables of medium size
should be used. The larger ones are
woody, strong in flavor and are not
so rich in vitamins. Then, too, they
require longer cooking which des
troys their food value.
Two vegetables a day, in addition
to potatoes, should be served every
day, and on e of these should be the
leafy kind. If possible, one should
also be served raw, advises Miss
Thomas.
ICE CREAM SUPPER.
The Betterment club and ladies
of Ellenboro community are giving
an ice cream supper Friday night
July 11, between the Presbyterian

YOU HAVE A DOCTOR'S
WORD FOR THIS
LAXATIVE
In 1875, an earnest young man
began to practice medicine. As a
family doctor, he saw the harm in
harsh purgatives for constipation and
began to search for something harm
less to the sensitive bowels.
Out of his experience was born a
famous prescription. He wrote it
thousands of times. It proved an ideal
laxative for old and young. As people
saw how marvelously the most slug
gish bowels are started and bad
breath, headaches, fevprishness,
nausea, gas, poor appetite, and such
disorders, are relieved by the prescrip
tion, it became necessary to put it up
ready for use. Today, Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin, as it is called, is the
world's most "popular laxative. It
never varies from Dr. Caldwell's
original effective and harmless
formula. All drugstores have it.
