Like most Id clocks, there is a painted decoation on the glass door that coneals the swinging pendulem. The olors are "so faded with age that I lad never noticed, until I started to rind the clock today, just what this lecoration consisted of. But as I lanced at it I saw the words "The institution." That set me to tudying this ancient design. The picture is of a scroll of paper leaded with the words "The Contitution," and partly concealing an tmerican flag, whose folds peek ut from below the scroll. Across he middle of the design are two lands clasped in friendship, and a eprouction of the old Roman asces, the bundle of rods tied about he battle ax which was the symbol f the unity of the Roman Empire. As I look at the clock from 'here I am writing it gives me J uite a patriotic thrill. One hunred years ago, or whenever this Id clock was made, the Constituion of the United States was a livag, vital thing in the consciousness f every American, somemmg uui orefathers were proud of and swore y. I hope it may always retain .. cs place as an object of popular rj eneration.

Heat And Flies - "" a *(11 W^l Affect Milk now The month of July brings with it a number of problems for the North , Carolina dairyman and he must be ' prepared to protect his cows from I the effects of heat, flies and short j pasture. "Cows that are continually an( noyed by heat and flies will not , produce as much milk as those . which do not suffer from these two . mid-summer ailments," says John A. Arey, dairy extension specialist at State College." In the first place, 1 - ??ov?/-1 tirofpr I an ampi6 supply ui ^imuc anu nuw* ; should be in every pasture. When it . comes to protection from flies, the j best thing to do is to rid the premises of the breeding places of these l pests. The stalls and manure pit ; hould be cleaned at least once each ; week and when practical it is best I to haul the manure directly from ; the cow barn to the field each day. ; Certainly, no accumulation of litter or garbage should be allowed j. Tf ie rwccihlp to UDOUl Lilt? U cl i i _y. xu iu ipvuu*Maw y destroy all flys in the larva stage, therefore poisons, traps and sprays k must be used. There are several . good fly prays which are effective y in keeping flies off the cows." Arey points out further that pastures begin to deteriorate in late summer. Usually in July, the grass begins to be short and tough as a > result of dry weather. It contains less food value than earlier in the t season and temporary grazing crops . are needed. If a dairyman does not i(have these temporary grazing crops, ; j it is a wise plan to feed some silMage, to increase the grain feed and -}to raise its protein content that the - j - n milk flow might De maintained, i There is no need for the highly bred dairy animal to suffer in sum. mer, if given the proper care. Plenty of fresh water, sufficient shade, [protection from flies, and suppler.mentary feeding will allow the cows to go along in normal producE tion, Arey says. /] 5 LEGION MEETING A meeting of the American has been called for Monday night at 8 o'clock by W.

I HI IB n MOST OFJTHE NEWS \ C.o^ TIME NUMBER 27 STORES MAY BE OPENED JULY 22 Control Board Is Composed jj ^ Ut J. ts. Boyce, H. r. Bonney And J. E. Moaeley A STORE AT LITTLETON Legal whiskey will probably go on sale in Warren county in ten days, it was learned yesterday from James B. Boyce, chairman of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board, which was appointed on Monday by the Board of County Commissioners. Other members of tSie board are J. E. Moseley of Sandy Creek township and H. F. Bonney of Littleton. Mr. Boyce said that he did not know definitely when stores would open in Warren but that efforts are being put forward to open a store at Warrenton and at Littleton on Monday, July 22. The store at Warrenton will be located between the Scoggin Motor Co. and the Gillam Auto Co. in a building belonging to Edmund White. Laurie Bedaoe will be manager of this store and he will be assisted by Charlie Haibhcock. It could not be learned here in what building the whiskey store will be located at Littleton but it will be ^ managed by R. W. Harvey. Mr. m Harvey will be assisted in the store by M. P. Nicholson of Vaughan. Only two stores will be opened in Warren county at present. Mr. Boyce said that the board desired to get the stores at Warrenton and Littleton functioning smoothly before making any plans to open at any other point in the county. The Control Board has complete control and jurisdiction over the importation, transportation ,sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages within Warren county. , The members of the board are bonded in the sum of $5,000. The law states that the chairman shall receive $50.00 per month and the other members receive $7.50 per day for the time actually engaged in their duties as members of the board.

Littleton Board In Regular Meeting Littleton, July 11.?The Board of Commissioners of the Town of Littleton met in regular session on Monday night, July 8th. D. L. Singleton's resignation as night watchman, to be effective on July 15th, was accepted by the Board, and a committee was appointed to recommend his successor, who is \to be chosen by tite Board prior to July 15th. The Commissioners ordered that the street light in front o? Mrs. J. W. Gay's home on Halifax Street be put back into service. The budget committee was appointed to prepare the 1935-36 budget to be filed with the Clerk at once for inspection by the public. A number of routine business matters were dispatched. A CORRECTION This newspaper was in error last week in stating that the town "commissioners increased tneir pay from $2.70 to $4.00 a meeting, which sum members of former boards received up until about two years ago when the new board came in and sliced expenditures.'" It has been pointed out by a former commissioner that members of the old board received $3.00 a meeting rather than $4.00. ' j Shortly after the new board went in it authorized a 10 per cent cut in salaries, bringing the pay of the commissioners to $2.70 a meeting. Last week they increased their pay to $4.00 a meeting. . POSTPONE MEETING i U. D. C. meetings will not be held during the months of July an! , August, Miss Amma Graham, president, announced this week. ||
