with, and saved all that time and
trouble, fhe fault lie* not with the
younger generation for parking lr
front of the drug »Ure. Anybody en
Joyx a cool, refreshing drink on a hot
day. Neither are the drug storea to
blame for the fact that frisaM lock*
and ihort dresses w charmed aa to

young folk*, and if they are fond of
lee cream and pop, let them hav •
their parking space and enjoy It;
they'll move on after a while. The
redan had Its right to park in front
of the drug (tore, even if its occu
pant were a little modem. However,
it wtu. very unfortunate that ancb a
circumstance should have caused you
to forget your mission be belated in
getting your medicine, when It might
have heen so easily avoided. Juxt like
the horsehoe nail that causod the

have stopped there, you would have
avoided, driving throagh the cor

not have been in your way aad hin

in the mood to rritkiaa the •sports,"
and your faith la the younger genera
tion might have Hecn saved. Tht real
trouble ties la the fact that you did
not know the fact*. You could have
found the very drug stare for which
you expressed a wish on the edge
of town where I here Is all kinds of
parking spaa*. So if you fiad it "un
pleasant to go to tcwa and find the
streets blocked with sport* In front
af the drug stores," remen:ber this
little drug store "on the edge of

Victu' Vaporub. castor oil, corn cure,
mustard plaster, hair tonic, bed-bug
killer, liniment, talcum powder, and.
in short, everything yon want, with
out "having to go clear in town."
Now, Mr. Farmer, the next time
1 ym*re in town try to find this real
handy dny store. Ask who H is op
erated by and where it is. Perhaps
Sheriff Haynes or Chief Lawrence
ran give, you the desired Information
or just ask any of their deputies,
they've all !<ecn to see It- When you
find it ask for the manager and if
you are not a subscriber to the Mount
Airy News and will promise to here
after read announr ment*, local

subscription to the Mo« t Airy Newa
and it wont coat yon i penny. He
will also give yon a "horn" of the

Everybody else has found this drag
•tore and it's t«o had it has been
kept a secret from you. Shake your
