Tribune Bureau Sir Walter Hotel Raleigh. Oct. 19.—Henry Ford, the billionaire tlivver magnet, will use the present distress of the Tobacco Grow ers’ Co-operative Association in his effort to make good his charges against Aaron Sapiro. At least that is believed to >be the purpose of attorneys who are seek ing to get a deposition from .Tames H. Poll, one of the receivers of the asso ciation. It was learned here yes terday t’aut Mr. Ford's attorneys hoped to get some facts from Mr. Pou touching upon the. professional services of Mr. Sapiro, that will aid the automobile maker in establishing his charges against Mr. Sapiro. The latter has brought a heavy damage suit against Mr. Ford for injury to his character.

The devetbpment -of the county fair is matter of State r«- | murk-, Charlotte,, beiug central to a jliirge bunch of the new-idea fair, is in position to make appraisement on . . ■ II I ■ personal knowledge; and .it does . not] ba'.k at the statement that the average count; fair aa managed thee* day* is Superior to the best fair that had! been staged by the 3tfe at Raleigh. | The reason for ascendency ol the i county fair ia not far to seek. The' beginning of thus ascendency dates; coincidentally with completion of 1 county stretches of good roads. It ia now an easy matter for the far mer to pick up his family, crank up and motor off to the couaty fair, to spend a day in wholesome entertain ment and in valuable instruction, and make return home with the ex hilarating feeling of a day well spent. Likewise, it is an encourage ment to -the fafmer and his house hold ’ to : collect their exhibits and' enter into the neighborly contests. Lin short, the couaty fair has bowl shorn of all its former features of ! drudgery, and invented with tie | characteristics of pleasures. * ‘j i The good roads likewise operate to ) I development of record attendance | pud jt attendance that makes ! tfte fair treasury bulge with money, i Tbe fairs, iuturq, maxing. money, are | enabled' 1 w proVide ia; better clast off entertainment for . their.patrons.

By deciding to continue ; thp shpw- , ing of films starring; the late Rudolph Valentino, the movie indhstry does an “about face" on one of its pet polices. When Barbara La Marr, screen “Vamp,” died:sarly this year, the industry . solemnly; and emphati ; cally 'let if be knbfhn" that aU be*- * pictures would b<‘ immediately with drawn. This was not in deference to tbe dead star but. because, as _the producers explained, the public loses interest in dead favorites. It was claimed that posthumous films are a drug on tbe market. As examples the producers cited the case of Wallace Reid, Oliver Thomas. Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Drew. Max Linder and. a score of fother idols of a past May, going as far back as ‘John Bunny, filmland”, pioneer comedian. But this policy wits not adhered to. Pictures showing Barbara La Marr continued to be exhibited just as if this actress still lived. However, in the case, of Valeptino tbe industry does not again run the risk of being called iinconsistent. Tt freely admits that though the “sheik” has passed to his reward his films are drawing greuter Crowds than before. And the industry is cashing in on his post death popularity; It has ransacked the film storehouses for any and all pictures in which Valentino*ever ap peared, even his early efforts;; Resur, rection'of. these films is now said, to be earhing $30,000 a May in royal ties for the dead star’s belts. The lajtcr .will appreciate this because in life Valentino spent his $2,000,000 49.3 Miles To One ; j Gallon Os Gasofine! j Final mileage tests in Charlotte on September 15th, § show this to be a fact.
