FLINT ROCK FILLING SAT ION IS BURNED Blaze Discovered Shortly After 8 O'clock This Morning Gutted In terior at Building. A blaze, discovered this morning * shortly after 8 o'clock in the rear i of the Flint Rock Filling Station, j e mpletely gutted the building and caused damage to the exterior. Firemen answered' tlie tire call but 1 due to the fact that the station is < located outside of the city limits it , required some time to get a water , line from a point near the South- ■ em passenger station to the burning , structure. The fire spread rapidly in the build- i ing. there being a quantity of grease, . oil and other inflammable materia , that burned like so much paper. The gasoline tanks were not exploded. The filling station is leased by the “ Texas company and is managed by j Mr. Phillips. I A True Story. Christmas Seals! Christmas Seals! Who will buy? lnerry, voice of a college, lad I pealed forth across the campus on the November air reaching the ears ,j of a senior sitting in his room de jected. careworn, heart sick. The honor letter on his sweater, the de bater's key. /the fraternity emblem each told its story of achieyeirient and happy days. j His roommate awkwardly pounded his shoulder saying. "It is just a slight attack, old man. You will be well in no time. The doctor said tuberculosis is easily cured when it is fought scientifically in the early stages. Your stay in the sanatorium will be a short one.” Brave, smiling, head erect and face forward; the senior put aside his dreams., folded away his cherished plans, Went to the sanatorium and fought the fight. Days lengthened in to weeks, and weeks into months un til one shining, glorious day the doc tor said the longed-for word. 'Cured.’ "Tell my story.” said this college senjor. "Tell it to every student in North Carolina. Teach them that I might have been spared this trial' if the health message of the Christmas Seals had been told to me while I was a child in school; had the health habits which help to prevent tuber culosis been trained into my life while it was easy to acquire them.” Christmas Seals; Christmas Seals! Who will buy? Each has its message of hoiie. each its weapon to fight the Great White Plague. Two Cent Stamps For Postal Cards. ■ Notwithstanding the fact that the postal rates enacted by Congress last' February, effective April 15th, 1925. increasing the rate on private mail ing cards have been repeatedly pub ; lished in all newspaper, some people continue to place one-eent stamps thereon, local post office employes state. Christmas and New Year greot -1 ing cards, enclosed in envelope or otherwise require two cents postage. Not to place tlie correct postage on them delays dispatch and delivery and when the addressee has to pay the additional postage it takes away the spirit of joy apd goodwill which they are intended to convey. “Little Women” Presented at Mt.
