North Carolina, foi i<tn.Miu^>ioii thioitgh mail as 2nd class matter under act o| Jongreas. March 3. 1897. Carter's Column By—>V. Horace Carter AWAY: Wray is away. Yes, Wray Thompson, our managing editor is on a trip to New York vvitn members oi the "300 bush el Per Acre Sweet Potato Club." The only newsman on the trip, he is supposed to publicize the tour that began last Friday and ends touay. It' tne New York weather is any worse tttan that experienced here in the last week, we certainly don't envy hia on this journey. PROMOTION: Next week the big BrunswicK County Apprecia tion Days sale begins in Tabor City. Tnere are going tu be S300 given away on February 9, 10 and 11. on a new gimmick th.it evolves around numbers on the front υ I each ui the special sec tion that we are mailing out. This is a complete givewav. There's not a thing to buy, not a rhy ine to write, no tickets issued—this is strictly a giveaway of $30u. and we arc anxious to see how many folks will bring those numbers ba.k to Tabor City and get their free money. While the three big days of pro motion are entitled "Brunswick County Appreciation Days." the money that will be given and the values that will be on hand in local stores are designed to appeal to the entire public re gardless of where they live. Some of the tree money will go to persons on routes other than Brunswick County but a large portion of the lucky numbers will be in Brunswick. Merchant·· want to show the iolks of the neighboring county thai they ap preciate their trading in Tabor. NO ERROR: Kon Lovell lias been putting "in bumper sticker. on autos reading "Trade In Tabor" and it's got ;i great ileal «Ί comment. Several folks have said that the printer must have forgotten to put the "City" on the sticker. But such is in>t tin case. We printed the stickers and when you say "Tabor" fulks in these parts know where you are talking about. We believe the advertising value was greater as the si«n read then it ir had had "City" on it. Consequently, we have printed another batch of these stickers and they re.td just like the last group cxcept they say, following the "Trade In Tabor" line. "You'll Be Glad Y--u Did." And that's the truth too. Thi- is another pro ject of the Merchants Association that directors hopi will help bring more and more customers to town. Some individual merchants are also promoting the Trade In Tabor theme with b«Mik matches tint ciurie.- their own ad vertising message and then puts m tht ueneial plug tor Tabor City. TAXES: Mrs. Xellie Spivey. the local tax lir-t«-r. reports that quite a number of new tax properties nave been p it mi tiv.· books this year. This is always a healthy situation showin. growth and the additional tax revenue can certaily be used by the town and county governments. 4-H FUND: Only six Tabor City business linn- tu date have contributed to the county wide drive tor funds lor the 4-H De velopment organization designed tu provide scholarships to needy and deserving 4-H club boys and girls. Columbus County has a quota of S78U0 and t<> date only Sliifi."» has been received. This is a worthy charity, fully tax deductible, and if you can help, please look up the letter that was sent to every local mer chant this month, find the stamped addressed envelope, put your check in it and mail today. The drive closes February 20. but we hope to complete as much of the drive as possible by mail prior to the start >>f personal solicitation February 10.

And he likes to help you do exactly that. But he also has a gentle reminder. Cold snaps call for more kilowatts than do summer months. The auto matic furnace runs practically all the time. Your electric water heater must heat water that comes into the home at a much lower temperature. More hot meals and in - between snacks are prepared on your electric range and small appliances. in tact you use more of just about everything electrical such as TV, lighting and electric space heaters. Naturally, the more Reddy works for you the more his services are re flected in your electric bill. However — when the weather's roughest is when folks appreciate the comfort and convenience of electrical living. Take a peek around your home and then ask what else does so many things at such reasonable cost? It's still the biggest bargain in the family budget. J "in cold, wintry I weather-you use more electricity 1 *κ C CAROLINA POWER Λ UOHT COMPANY An invcstorOuned, tax paying, public utility comjmny
