MISS MYRTLE HUTCHENS DIES AFTER TAKING POISON TABLETS Miss Myrtle Hutchens, former Yadkinviile girl, died at the Bap tist hospital Wednesday of last week after she had suffered for three days from the effects of taking bichloride of mercury tablets, apparantly with suicidal attempt. l^iss Hutchens, who was only 19 years old, had been a student nurse at the Baptist hospital for 17 months prior to her death and was held in the highest esteem by all her associates around the hospital. She was said to-be very efficient in her work and a life of usefulness seemed to be in front of her. It is learned on good authority that Miss Hutch ens had become despondent over a love affair and also because she had no funds to support herself and her.sister who is in the Ox ford orphanage. She remarked to one of her girl friends ^ust be fore, she took the poison tablets that she had been out riding with her boy friend and that they had quarreled. , The_deceased was a daughter of Walt Dan Hutchens, who has been living in Indiana for some years. After the death of her mother Myrtle went to Oxford orphanage where she stayed until coming to the Baptist hospital to take train ing. She is survived by her father who arrived too late to see her alive, and by three sisters, Miss Bianche Hutchens, who js training for A nurse at Greenville, N. C., Mrs. Luther Hutchens of East Bend and Mrs. Simon Parker of Boonville. Funeral and interement for Miss Hutchens wras conducted at Pilot View Friends church, this county, Friday, and was conduct ed by Rev. Charles H. Hutchens and Rev. Mrs. Lucy Vestal. Rev. i.'1 ■ ' "* pital mane a short talk in which he told of the faithful work of the deceased and the high esteem in which she w7as held by her co workers. A class of student nurses at the hospital attended in a body to pay their respects to their unfortunate friend. -♦ FORD IS TURNING SHIPS INTO LAND MACHINES Vessels of Wartime Merchant Ma rine Being Dismantled; Ev e|ry Part Saved A 1926 version of the business of turning swords into plow shares was disclosed in informa tion made public by the Henry Ford interests in Detroit explain ing how the nucleus of the War time Merchant Marine fleet is ra pidly being fed into the Ford industry. Wartime ships are lit erally being transformed into au tomobiles, tractors and imple ments for use in the organiza tion’s various enterprises. « A crew of five hundred men, working at especially designed dismantling docks erected by.this gigantic industrial concern which taboos waste, every other day wreck one of the 199 steel ships which the Ford interests purchas ed of the 80# originally built as the United States shipping boards merchant fleet. Thirty-five have already been dismantled and as the process is completed another crew of 300 men move the parts to alloted places where they meet a variety of needs. Steel and metals are used to make automobile parts. Heavy booms and spars go to, the lumb er mills to become wheels and automobile bodies. Scrap wood and cork are ground for pack ing purposes. Piping faucets and plumbing fixtures are stored away for some future need. Stacks and air pipes are installed in va rious plants. Wooden deck ma terials are made into crates and boxes. Even nails are melted in to pigs. ' The ship’s engines are sent to drive saw mills and generate pow er in the plants while one of them was sent to a Ford factory in France. Searchlights are sent to light Ford aviation fields, and ship ice plants find use in experi mental laboratories. A place for every part and par cel of these one-time ocean going vessels is found in some place in the Ford organization. I DR. PERISHO SPEAKS TO YADKIN TEACHERS Dr. E. C. Perisho of Guilford College addressed the Yadkin county teacher’s association at the school auditorium last Satur day. In his splendid address he | stressed the importance of get J ting prepared for the work of | teaching, and then cooperating with the people, in the various interests of the community. While here Dr. Perisho was questioned concerning the boys who are at Guilford from Yadkin j ville. In reply he said, “They i were a fine bunch of fellows and were doing good work in school. The following boys from in and around Yadkinville are at Guil ford this year: Worth Mackie, / Walter Davis, Charlie Gough, George Hinshaw, Milo Hoots and j Perry Shermer. Worth Mackie pays practically all his expenses in school by working evenings for tl^e “Greens i boro News.” He also holds the responsible place of “Pastor at I Archdale and Springfield church 1 es—which the pastor is on vaca | tion. "■ | Dr. Perisho spoke at Union j Cross church at 11 o’clock Sun I day. Among the many good things that he said was that science is revealing by the spade of the Areheoligist that the narratives of the Bible are true. Many valuable excavations have of late been made in Palis tine, Egypt and at Abrahams early home that have confirmed Biblical accounts. -i I NEW CHEVROLET COMPANY ORGANIZED The Mocksvilie Enterprise: !

After the re ! organization this company is one of the strongest in the city, hav { ing added several thousand dol - lars to its capital. I Mr. W7inecoff is one of Davie’s most prominent men and it is useless to say that he will make Chevrolet’s hum in this section.

Hereafter, when a newspaper or magaz.ne carries an advertise i ment of a tonic that will grow ; hair on a billiard ball or a salve i that will cure tuberculosis in ; thirty days, it will be struck by | the vengeance of the Federal Trade Commission. This body, according to one of its members, is launching a drastic campaign against all publications that car ry fraudulent advertising. . Reputable newspapers and mag azines scrutinize with the great est possible care all advertising matter submitted to them. There are, however, mushroom publi | cations which suddenly spring up and flourish for a short space on advertising patronage which the ; better members of their business i refuse. They do not enjoy long ; lives, however, because the frau I dulent advertisements in the end ; drive away the readers by destroy S ing their confidence. * But as soon as one of them has I gone the way of the transgressor, ! another turns up to take its place, i It is a fact, despite the constant j endeavors of the honest advertis j ers and publishers, that the crook ed advertiser can always find space for his matter. Millions of | dollars are taken from the public j every year by these published I promises which the publishers must have known to be impossible when they agreed to spread them before the public eye. The campaign of the Federal Trade commission, if it is drastic enough and if it lasts long en ough, will serve the public well. The desirable thing is to have the day drawn when- the public may and will have absolute con fidence in every advertisement published in the United States. From May 15 until September 15, farmers of Henderson county sold over $14,000 worth of pro duce on the curb .market at Hend ersonville. ( ■ MRS. SARAH JANE LEGANS Mrs. Sarah Jane Legans, aged 80 years, died at the home of her son, Mr. Frank Legans, near Courtney Sunday, and was buried at Deep Creek Baptist church Monday. Mrs. Legans was one of the old est and most highly respected ladies of the neighborhood. The funeral was conducted by Rev. Mr. S. S. May. A large crowd at tended the funeral-. TARHEEL FARMERS MUST STUDY MARKET REPORTS -— Raleigh, Oct. 13.—Faced with a price below the cost of produc- | tion and one of the largest crops ' of cotton ever produced in the ! South, it is time that farmers of the State gave more attention to market reports and arranged their production to meet the situation. This is the opinion of Dr. G. j W. Foster, head of the'department j of agricultural economics at Statej College. Early in 1920, Dr. Fost er’s department issued an out-1 look for the cotton crop for this year in which .it was pointed out, that the American cotton* crop for this year w*ould likely be as large if not larger than in 1925. Tw*o sasons previous, said the re port, the production of cotton had exceeded consumption and cot-; ton stocks had increased. The ! domestic and foreign cfemand would not materially increase in 1926 but would likely decrease and production costs would be about' the same as in 1925. These pre dictions based on a survey of the;! situation in the entire -Nation and on facts established by many years of observation and research have proven to be true this fall; Dr. Forster states that ihiji chief advantage had by the cot-; ton farmer is his control over the supply of cotton. This control^ 1 controT acreage. It has been proven that 54 per cent of the actual supply of cotton may be attributed to changes in acreage and 46 per cent to weather conditions. It is evident therefore that cotton far mers can, if they wTish, exercise confc-ol over the supply and hence over the price. Dr. Forster does j .not believe in the efficacy of cam- j paigns for the reduction of acre- j age. They have been failures, he I states, but if farmers wrere con-; scious of the fact that the acre age intended for cotton w*as go ing to be materially increased, they could revise their plans and cut down their acreage. Where the farmer has no idea before planting just what the acreage will likely be, he has no basis for intelligent adjustment of his acre age.

WHY WE YAWN Popular Science Monthly. Anything will start a yawn. An earnest monotonous ta.ker; see ing somebody else do it; excessive nervousness; love; too much con centrated attention or not enough of it. We yawn when we are bored, but we yawn when we are excited, too; we yawn when we are sleepy and when we’ve had too much sleep; when we are en joying the best of health, or when we are sick or about to be. And strangest cf all, we may yawn when we are about to die. Under neath alb of these things, the pri mary purpose of the yawn isf to supply the imperative demands of for morr air amr-hur ry up about it!
