Farmers Hardware Co. j A Tribute To You It is nothing unusual for a business house to be grateful to its patrons. Your banker, however, feels his interests are so closely bound to yours, that there is a special warmth in the feeling that ob tains toward his depositors and corres pondents^ A banker is compelled for the sake of his patrons to refuse certain accommoda tions. He may seem arbitrary in so doing; often, indeed, his duty goes against that action that he would, personally, prefer. Yet his customers, as a rule, are willing —even glad—to cooperate in arranging "red tape" that may seem to them un necessary. When our banks are praised, the high character of the people who patronize them is entitled to high acclaim. *"IN UNION THERE IS STRENGTH" /• __ , t • * e Union Trust Co. FOREST CITY, N. C.

RUSH HAMRICK VALDESIAN NURSERIES BOOSTED BY OBSERVER The editor of the Charlotte Ob server must have a high regard for our good Bostic friend, Mr. Geo. W. Jones, as that paper frequently has something nice to say about Mr. Jones or his nursery. Mr. Jones' nursery is a credit to the county, and as a nurseryman he stands in the front ranks. Here is what the Observer had to , say in last Sunday's issue. "Located in the foothills of Jhe Blue Ridge mountains, at Bostic, N. ; C., is the well known Valdesian i Nursery, owned and s operated by i Geo. W. Jones, who has been iden-j tified with this fascinating business j for more than a quarter of a cen- j tury. "The growing, planning and plant- j ing of shrubbery is more than just j a "business with Mr. Jones, because) ! his heart is in his work, literally I I speaking. It is the policy of the | Valdesian Nursery to render a genu- I ine service' in .- the planning and 'planting of home grounds, school grounds, church yards, or for fac tories and public buildings. "We have at all times a mental picture iof just what the completed job will gradually grow into —« ; ; thing of beauty and constant pleasure," said Mr. Jones, in >an interview with The Observer representative. "Many specimen plants of rare ( evergreens and ornamentals in al- j most any size and age are found J among the* countless number of plants in this farm of more than 50 acres of shrubbery, v Hundreds of plants are shipped each year to almost every state in the union. "Several large orders have been filled recently by this progressive nursery, and the outlook is for nor- : mal business, "Everyone loves j beauty, and natural beauty which j is obtained by skillful planting of i grounds is the most sublime, said j Mr. Jones, "this being true people j throughout the world will continue to plant more and more shrubbery"."

And see the gentle smiling faces Of once tried and true friends. We have spent many pleasant hours With our friends in their homes. Many have been the lovely flower.s In our pathway they have strewn. When young we look to the future And the old think most of the past Every man that travels this road Will. Purely find this truth at last. For the path of life There is a line so truly drawn, i We heed not think it any strife ; If we find it traveling on. ; i * * ► 1 The young just plan for future day ►! And think the old are very strange ► i But the old know all their ways I! By the knowledge they have gained ► | , ' ► ■ So then don't think it any folly, ► For this I know will surely be. i When you cross the midst of life Youth is past and you can see. —By M. M.
