INTERIOR Her mind lives in a quiet room, A narrow room, and tall, With pretty lamps to quench the gloom, And mottoes on the wall. There all the things are waxen neat, And set in decorous lines; And there are posies, round anc sweet, And little, straightened vines. Her mind lives tidily, apart From cold and noise and pain, And bolts the door against her heart, Out wailing in the rain.

A half dozen cars were parked around the gas tank, most of them waiting for service. Inside the store was a crowd of folks waiting to be served. Paul is some hustler. He has his store stocked chock full of groceries and gas tanks and barrels are all round about the building. Paul sells a lot of stuff to feed folks and autos and other gas eaters. And you would be sur prised how cheap he sells his pro ducts. He sells kerosene for nine cents a gallon and if you give him a dollar he will put five gallons of gas in your car and hand you free a big 5-cent box of matches. North Carolina cared for 7,311 mental patients in state institu tions in May, 1938. There were 9,372 prisoners in N. C. state highway camps on May 31, 1938. VTTVTTVTI'TtTtttttVTTVVttt CECIL LEWIS DEAD The death of Cecil Lewis of Wendell as the result of an auto mobile accident brought sorrow to relatives and many friends in Zebulon and the surrounding com munity. He was a brother of Ralph Lewis and was formerly em ployed in this town. The funeral service was held Friday, July 22, at the home of a brother, W. P. lowis of Wendell, and burial was in the Zebulon cemetery. Seldom is seen in this sectign such a long procession as followed the hearse bearing this young man to his last resting place. I)R. HERTY DEAD The death last week of Dr. Charles Herty means that the South has lost a scientist who will be known as a benefactor. Dr. Herty was the patient investigator who, after numberless experiments, found a method of converting slash pine into newsprint and even into fine book paper. To him are due the business improvements already shown in some sections of the South. To him goes the credit of a new cash crop for the country, since slash pines grow fast and al most anywhere. In addition to its value as a source of paper, the by products are of considerable value. LOST SON—ANXIOUS FATHER N. H. Wells of Zebulon, R. 1, was in the Record office Monday seeking knowledge of his missing son. He is 25 years old, 5 1-2 feet tall, weighs 125 lbs., has blue eyes and black hair. He has been ab sent two weeks. It is understood that when last seen he was at Paul Brantley’s store under the influ ence of liquor. Any one knowing the whereabouts of Mr. Wells’ son will confer a favor to him and his family by reporting the same to The Zebulon Record or Mr. Wells. FAIRM AND HOME WEEK ATTRACTS MANY More than a thousand men and women have registered at State College for the annual Farm and Home Week now 7 being held there. A majority of the registrants are women, the men finding it too hard to leave the crops. President of the men is D. H. Boney of Duplin county. Mrs. W. T. Loyd of Dur ham is president of the women’s organization. Various courses relative to life on the farm are given with experts leading, and many recreational features are en joyed, not the least of which are contacts with friends from every section of the state. AGED PHYSICIAN BEATEN Dr. J. M. Goodwin of near Lex ington, aged physician, was found in his home on last Saturday morn ing badly beaten and bruised. He was taken to a hospital and at first it was feared his injuries were fa tal; but now it appears he may recover. His grandson, 20 years old, has been accused of the crime, which was evidently for the pur pose of robbery. The doctor was in the habit of paying off work men on Saturday and therefore usually had cash in the house on Friday night. However, for once, he had paid the men on Friday and the thieves got less than $30.00. The grandson has been in trouble before with the law. One hundred and twenty-two insane persons were confined in 84 N. C. jails during May. 1938.

The investor knows that if he risks his money in a new undertaking and is lucky enough to earn a pro fit, the government will seize an undue share of it through the capi tal gains tax —and so he is leaving his assets in a bank, where they produce nothing. Industry knows that if it attempts to save up mon ey against a rainy day the govern ment will heavily penalize it with the undistributed profits tax —con- sequently it is operating on a hand-to-mouth basis. So it goes, throughout the whole economic structure. Intelligent tax reform would probably do more than anything else to bring back the lost confi dence that is essential to good times here or anywhere else. Patronize our advertisers.

It seems that there was an unusually large number of cans put up last year and the recession limited the purchasing power of those who might have bought the vegetables for food, resulting in the cans being left on the hands of pro ducers. Still, this does not mean that Zebulon housewives can tell much difference in the amount of home canning to be done this sum mer. f(7r sale Plenty Riven Tobacco Sticks, Dynamite, Sprayers, Poison, Turnip Seed, WANTED: Com A.
