Moser 6ays that some itinued On Back Page) * Tobacco Market Opens Thursday All over eastern Carolina for the last month and especially the last week there has been much excite ment and a great deal of hurry and flurry over what would happen Aug. 25. And that is today. Start ing even before nightfall Wednes day and all night long, cars, single and with trailers, trucks loaded high with tobacco, were traveling toward the towns that had made preparations for one of the biggest tobacco openings in the history of togacco growing and marketing in North Carolina. For a week the daily newspapers have been filled with pictures of warehouses and their operators. Not only was the tobacco business headlined, but even the banks and churches and the town as a w T hole were front page stuff. E£leigh rushed to open a new market toi the tobacco growers. Goldsboro has built a big ware house in two weeks, working day and night to complete it in time. Kinston, Farmville, Greenville are all set for a big opening. Coming nearer home Wilson and Rocky Mount have made preparations for the best season in their history. And our neighbor town, Wendell, has improved all her old ware houses and added a fourth. The to bacco men are working hard to make this Wendell’s best season, and it should be their best. Situat ed in the center of the bright leaf tobacco section, having good roads leading into this market, accessible without a long haul and board bills and a long wait, Wendell is one of the best markets available to the farmers. And it will be this sea son. With good buyers and as fine a set of warehousemen as on any market, ample floor space, Wendell is prepared to give the very best service to the farmers it has ever offered. ■Harvest Dollars ARE WORTH MORE ' THAN 100 CENTS IF SPENT IN ZEBULON O • Watch and wait for our big trade edition next week.

Felix Little pitched a 5-1 victory for Zebulon over Sanford. T. Frye made the most spetacu lar catch in this game. He caught a ball on the fly and it knocked him for a loop. However, he recovered and threw a Sanford man out. Whether or not Zebulon will play in the finals is not known as we go to press. They escaped from the cellar and passed Faytex by win ning this game. They are only a slight distance behind Laurinburg, and because they played Erwin one game under protest they may be able to be among the first four in the end. NUMBER EIGHT (3? 1235 tiff S-Sm Here I am, ladies and gents, back from a week of sleep. The week was full of daze and lo and behold, when I awoke I was living 1037 years, 3 months and 17 days from now. The thing that impressed me most about the people that will be living then was their absence of thinking. They never thought more than 5 minutes about any one subject and their intelligence was measured not by the IQ (intelli gence quotient) system, but by how r much they could absorb. The people were dripping with knowledge and it made me dizzy to see how far the scientists had ad vanced from the present day. Whenever one wanted to learn any thing he would simply clamp on a skull cap that was attached to a FACTory and absorb all he wished to know. The day when such things as that will happen is still 1037 years and some few months off. Scien tists have not yet invented think ing machines to relieve us of that duty—so—until they do, I think it would be a good idea for each of you to wrap up SI.OO securely, pyt it in an envelope with your name and address, and mail it to The Zebulon Record. In exchange we will send you this newspaper for one year. Although this will not quite take the place of the FACT ory machine of 2075, it will assist you in keeping up with your neigh bors. I’m glad that’s over. Stop me if you’ve heard this one. One day not long ago a newly-made father was in his office. Suddenly his tele phone rang. “Hello,’’ he said. “Hubby, dear,’’ he heard his wife shriek, “Come home right now!” Thinking possibly something dreadful had happened he chased himself home. In his ' haste he broke down the kitchen door, knocked down two chairs and final ly came on his wife playing with the baby. ‘Wh- what’s the mat ter?” shouted the nusband. “Noth ing now,” replied his wife. “The baby had his foot in his mouth and he looked so cute I wanted you to see him.” The complaint department has registered another complaint aim ed in my direction. It’s from the Skunk River section, Route five, Zebulon. That’s a very complainty section. We had a complaint from those parts on December 4, 1936. May we present, ladies and gents, complaint No. 2 from Skunk Rive* Give it a big hand, folks. Dere Swishbockler, • For 6 years I hev been ru yor colum and I aint seen no in it yet.
