The United States will not recog
nize Russia until the Soviets put their

Fayetteville among other thing?
has outlawed hogpens. That has
been done here, but there is a sug

'jogpens have not stayed outlawed.
' B. il. Hedgecock, cashier of a
High Point Bank, is reported short
$40,000 in his accounts. Apparent

and in other instances there is no

was a case tf high living. il;c
bank, however, is in no danger, as
the 'depositors were amply protected

NEED OF TAKIl T BOARD
There came to the Record's desk
yesterday a pamphlet, 'Take the
Tariff Out of Politics," published by
the preliminary organization ccm
miUtr';fbr an American non-part iz
an' 'scientific tariff, which ought to
receive careful consideration from
those who; are interested in tho pros
perity of thVUnitcd States. The Rec
ord is in favor of a genuine tariff
board will be influenced by
facts rather than" politics' It wants
the tariff taken out of politics.
In tho pamphlet, which is edited
by Julius Ror.stman, a manufacturer
of Passaic, N J., are these 'two pat
ent facts:
(a) That the tariff on which the
uncial and economic structure and
the entire future prosperity of the
country arc absolutely dependent, is
a matter of constant political dis
pute; and that the tariff theory on
which the nation's economic stability
must be based, varies ftccording to
the political party in power.
(b) That whatever measure is
finally adopted by either party is
passed under the pressure of polit
ical expediency and of special in
terests. Definite and expert data on
material and production and conver
sion costs that are the fundamentals
on which any equitable tariff must
rest are neither properly collected
nor presentt'd-'- V "
European governments which levy
tariffs have a coinm's'siiM which
studies the question and is not in
fluenced by politics. It is said that
in France, where there arc more po
litical upheavals than in any other
well govetned country, the tariff is
never an issue. The tariff could be
eliminated from politics in the Unit
ed States to great advantage to all
classes.

Worry and fear are life destroy

be happy while worry preys on
your mind and takes all the iov
out of life. y
Nine times out of ten lack of
money or something money could
help to secure is the cause of wor

and usually the chief causes of
worry.
And it will be safe from burg

Why There Should Be An
Electric Range in
Every Kitchen
Here is another prize winning letter in
the Southern Public Utilities Electric
Range Word Contest. The writer is the
possessor of an Electric Range and speaks
with authority.
There are many reasons why there should be an
Electric Range in every kitchen, and the first and
foremost reasons are, after having been the happy
possessor of an Electric Range for the past eight
een months is the fact, that it conserves and protects
a woman's health, cuts the kitchen wbrk down
more than half. No heat, smoke, soot, or dirt of
any kind, something that cannot be truthfully
claimed for any other cooking range, not even the
gas. range, which does smoke under certain, con
ditions, over which the owner and. user has no
control. The oven of the Ijlectric range holds and
maintains an even .heat, at .all. .times,,, assuring the,,
cook that one side of the cake, biscuit or pie, vill'
not burn, while the opposita remains 'uncooked, as
often happens in using any other kind of cooking
stove or range. : .
,--y i -
Owners of Electric Ranges, especially those
who cook or supervise their cooking know that I
speak thruthfully when I say that an Electric range
is without one single exception the greatest as
set to any home, in its furnishings, that it comes
nearer solving the servant problem than any other
convenience that is within reach of practically ivery
house wife.
Another very commendable feature i of the
Electric Range that we never cease to praii&Kis the
fact that instead of consuming an hour's ' tfnte in
preparing breakfast, as is always the rasV'Vn
cooking on other stoves and ranges, ififteen 6'twCTi
ty minutes is all the time that is necessary-when
using an Electric range. Hence the Electric ran?"
is one of the greatest time and labor savers of the
twentieth century. '.-' V' "
An Electric Range will inspire any On t-want
.to learn to cook, especially those who desire tovap
pear neatly dressed at1 all times, and without 'a
servant, be able to serve the most tempting -TtreaT.
And to those who would like to. have time-athd '
strength to engage in other worthwhile 'thirijj-g atfk
enjoy life, the Electric Range is the logicaranF-Cve??" "
After you have owned and used an Electric
Range, you will wonder how you have lived through
all the heat, dust and drudgery of the past, some
times without a servant, but you will not wonder
why your daughters, so capable and efficient in
other home duties, just were not interested in learn
ing to cook. , .. ...
Then one of the last but not the least reasons
why there should be an Electric Range. in everv"
kitchen is the fact, that it is just as economical as
wood or coal or any other fuel, minus the smoke,
soot ancTdust incident to other methods of cooking.
All the good points .that can and will be men
tioned in this contest will not be sufficient to express
the real value to the housewife of the most perfect
and wonderful cooking range, the 'Electric".
Respectfully submitted,
MRS. W. L. LONG.-
