It did no other damage. It the booming of guns indicates hunting the township is in need of a game warden. From every direction comes evidence tbfit the game laws are being violated with abandon. If these violations continue until the open sea ' son we just as well have no law of protection as there will be no game by then. Dpgs have already destroyed this year more turkeys and hens than the game is worth. Two dogs last Sunday made a raid on a* poultry yard and killed twelve turkeys and 15 hens, and many other instancea are re l ported where dogs have killed turkeys | and chickens. We arc writing this, i that the game commission for Cabar- j rus County. Many know the haw is being violated and that they may make an attempt to enforce the law.

Mr. Morrison goes to i Balm Beach, Fla., and will do carpen- I ter work. Corn, liny and junk brought good prices at these sales, but stock, and good farming tools didn’t bring half their value. For $24 Manlius Morgan, (col.) -bought an old wagon, hitched his mules to it and drove to town, loaded 10 bushels of oats on it 1 nnd started for home.

She had been n great sufferer for four yenrs. For the- past five months of her life she never lay down, having to- be propped in bed or on a chair. She bore her affliction with much, fortitude. Al-; though a member of the Methodist Church she believed in Christian Sei-" ence, and her faith in that doctrine s believed by many to have given her strength with which to fight the mat-: ady that was sapping her life through : the years of illness. She is survived by her husband, six sons and four daughters, all of whom are good citi zens and all are married but one. Miss, Lula Carriker, of Charlotte. Funeral services were conducted last Sunday by her pastor. Rev. D. C. Ballard, ! nnd interment was made in the Bethel cemtery. John H.

Oi; nnd Lon- - nie and Miss Lillie Aycock. John Ayeock was a poor man but lie gave to the Western North Carolina Con ference one of her big preachers, Rev. A. L. Ayeock.

Xc»v York, Oct. 29.—Steady sell ing by the south is the chief cause of the easier market today thought 'ocnl operators were quick to take their cue from that and' help the de c:ine along. As long a» pressure from the south remains in evidence the prospect of any recovery will be- C..me correspondingly fainter and trade demand will hesitate ami at n 1 cv nts be noted only on recessions as such sellings will be reasonably con structed as strong confirmation of the large crop ideas which are ex pected to receive further support from private crop estimates to be Issued next week and which are thought likely to suggest 15,500.000 or about that. For the present the market looks to be very much at the mercy of bearish trades who are not likely to neglect the opportunity provided for them bill will sell on every moderate i ra iy in the confident expectation that contracts will be supp ied as nnded by the south selling against the crop. If the present crop, how ever, proves as large as now pre dated after its various experiences it would seem that none need ever despair of a good yield regardless of weather conditions during the grow season. There are many in the trade who will insist on full confirmation of those crop figures, however, through the ginning which is- the only evi dence-on which they will rely be fore /then will be ready to admit' that the Experience of a ifetirae lias mis led then). Such pcop’e arc doing lit tle or nothing but stand on the side lines at present letting the market drift where it will without opposi tion on their part*- POST AND FLAGG- Adolph 8.

Herrin, 1 111., 0.-t, 2!).—OPl—A sign in a store " window reads: “Former Herrin tailor returned; firm under a new nntne." It is a sign of the time in Herrin. Change tho name and there would be few vi ible iodieorions that there is the town which wrote its name in blood. They are returning to Herrin —the people who went away while the “war” * raged—and the town is trying to heal its wounds.’ Ten widows, 28 orphans, ami 13 d< .1(1 men are hard to forget..* Among many reasons for the town's eome-baek these are outstand ing; Elimination of the champion gun toters; a religious revival; a re turn of activity in the coal field*. There are many other signs of re generation. Rank deposits in two weeks this fall jumped $30,000. Two chain stores have opened branch houses, one n grocery concern, the other a nation! music ltouse. At the beginning of this coal sea son, three banks were handling a monthly payroll of more thjjn $700.- 000. In 1024 there were 47 mines operating in Williamson county producing almost 10 million tons of coal a year and employing more than 12000 miners. In 1025 mcro than 20 mines closed. The. mines are open ing rapid’y. Stores are starting up. Empty houses are being oeenpied. It is estimated 200 fami'ies est Herrin during the internecine strife. Property depreciated tit) percent. There were bankruptcies, stagnation and despair ' This happened while 05 percent of the citizens looked on in horror at their own town gone wild, help less to stop it, yet bearing equally with the lighters the evil reputation. Besides the signs of commercin' resurrection there are others. Gospel quotations are posted in public places. One over the* cashier's win dow in the leading hotel is familiar. “For what is a man profited if ho shall gain tho who’o wor’d and ’oso hi*, own soul! Or what slinll a man give in exchange for his soul?" A wild, dirty litt'e mining town is tho picture of Herrin that has gone out into the world. A clean, cultured, naturally prosperous city of 12,000 S; the fact. The local chamber of commerce says that Herrin has a higher per centage of home owners than any city in the United Stnates. The disnsterous Southern Illinois tornado of several month;- ago, wntch did not hit Herrin, but brought toes into contact in a work of mercy, was an ill wind that blew good to Herrin. Some of the leaders in Herrin’s troublous days were stranger* S. Glenn Toting, who tried to clean the town with a gun, was a stranger. Howard S. Williams, revivalist, who tried it last summer with a Bible, was a stranger. Many strangers were among the leaders of the strip swine massacre of .Tunc, 1922, which occurred about half way between Herrin and Marion. TODAYS EVENTS. Friday, October 30, 1925.

To Spare Rod Spoils Child Veteran School Head Thinks. Lynchburg, Va., Oct. 29.—i/c)’ For forty-seven years E. C. Glass has held continuously the post as superintendent of schools in this city. Fifty-four years of teaching • and administrative service has been | given exclusively in Lynchburg | schools. Superintendent Glass, who arso [ was educated as a boy in the schools which he came to direct, be'ieves in the principle that “to spare the rod spoils the child ” He points as evi dence to 156 ones of corpora! i punishment in his school during the last season. That use of the rod is declining, however, was cone’uded from the fact that although tfcere are now four times as many students in his schools as were enrolled in 1879, when Mr. Glass first took the office, there were in his initial year 2,159 cases of corporal punishment. The majority of “whippings” -were ad ministered to negro children by negro i teachers. Raise Enough Wheat For Their Flour Monroe Enquirer 0. M. Redfern, who se’ls commer cial fertilizers, says there are few farmers of Stanly county that do not I produce enough wheat to supply the family with flour. Stanly farmers | take their wheat to the' roller mills j and exchange it for flour, securing | the flour fresh from the mill during : the year as they need it. Mr. Redfern is of the opinion that I many Union county farmers are mak ing a mistake in not sowing wheat this Fall, as three to five acres will produce more than eonugh for an av erage family’s use for an entire year. But wheat growing is unprofitable when done in a haphazard way.: Good seedbed, with properly planting and fertilization is absolutely neces sary if good results are obtained . | A paper dollar in circulation has a t life of from 6 to 10 months. | 7/11% 0 (vmun-wmE U .
