BILL CUMMINGS
PLANS ACTIVE
RACING SEASON
Fresh from his victory In "the
500" at the Indianapolis Speedway,
Bill Oummings is already busy
with plans for carrying out a stren
uous program of racing for the bal
ance of the season at the various
tracks. For nothing dims the ar
dor of this youthful veteran for the
motor racing game!
Discussing his victory after the
race, Cummings said, "thirty three
drivers started the Indianapolis
Classic this year?scorching the
bricks over that 214 mile track. For
200 grueling laps?nearly 5 hours
of it?we kept up the blistering
pace. I had to average 104.863 miles
an hour, the new world's record-far
"the 500"?sometimes hitting It up
to over 2 miles a minute?to win.
4 hours and 46 minutes of this
wrings the vitality out of a man
and you can bet that I felt pretty
well played out at the end of the
race."
Cummings' first request after the
race was for a Camel. "Any time
I'm 'all in,,"' he explained, "Camels
give me a 'lift' In energy. I smoke
them steadily."
In view of the known preference
for Camels of champions, in various
fields of sport, such as Cummings,
Ellsworth Vines, Jr., BUI Horn,
winner of the Gold Cup Speedboat
event. Miss Helena Madison, Olym
pic champion swimmer and holder
of many world swimming records,
and others whose endurance and
energy is constantly tested to the
limit. Camel advertising now stress
es the "energizing effect" In Camels
which has been experienced by mil
lions of smokers, and recently con
firmed" by scientific studies carried
out In a famous New York research
laboratory.
IN MEMORIAM
Bessie Bailey Walters, daughter
of John Bailey and Jennie Bailey,
was born at the home of her par
ents in Roxboro township, March
12, 1882. She was married to James
Henrv Walters 1909, and entered in
to life's eternal at her home in
Roxboro, N. C? as the glorious sun
was beginning to gleam across the
eastern hill on May 18, 1934.
Her birth brought Joy and sun
shine into her parent's home, where
she grew into womanhood, exhibit
ing . her daily activities the lovely
traitd of geritleness, kindliness and
gcod will to every one. She was al
ways loving and lovable. She was
an unfailing source of comfort to
her father and mother, an inspira
tion to all who knew her.
She was even tempered and well
poised, patient, cheerful, brave and |
hopeful. Her influence for good was
inescapable, and to all who knew
her, it was a challenge to live a lit
tle more nobly, a little more unself
ishly, a little more graciously day by
day. Who can tell how far down the
ages the influence of her life will
be felt? How many lives, will be
lifted to a higher plane by it.
She was a diligent and efficient
housewife, she ministered with un
limited energy to the needs of her
household, extended unlimited hos
pitality to intimate friends and'
strgngers alike, and yet was never I
too busy to do what she could to
benefit the cause of Christ, -our
heavenly King.

LOST CONFIDENCE
By THAD K. JONES
We read with pleasure and pro
fit Mrs. Day's excellent piece in a
recent issue of The Courier . It is
worthy of our profound, prayerful
thought and consideration. I have
been thinking about writing a piece
on a similar subject?Lost Confi

jcovery of one "person's treachery
tends to weaken our confidence in
1 the integrity of mankind and
treachery abounds It Is sometimes
found in the most unexpected places.
Some people you would think were
almost immune to any gross wrong

[and fall sometimes to rise no more.
Deceit, sham, pretense, insincerity,
[vacillation and treachery abounds.
Oh, deception, thou art one of the
[Devil's most faithful and destruc

It Is in the foundation of children's,

Mileage Hints

WfH Y is it that one mo tori* t gets

while a contemporary will obtain
only 20,000 miles front the same
type and grade of tires T The reason
is usually because the first motorist
takes the trouble to heed a few
simple rules designed to minimize
tire wear.
Tires are built to render real milei
age today; but they can not do so if
the motorist who uses them is care
less. The driver should inspect them
periodically for nails; glass and
other foreign substances in the
tread, which will work their way in
and cause trouble. He should keep
his wheels in alignment. He should
not permit worn or loose wheel
bearings, tire rims out of line on the
wheel, springs out of line <* loose
spring clips. iv
Every motorist should have hif
tires inflated to the pressiire recom
mended by the manufacturer at i
least once e week during the sum
mer months. Under -.inflation causes
undue wear. One way to aid tTT|
keeping the tiree properly inflated
le to' be aure the valves are not
worn and leaky and to use valve

the arch enemy of mankind, con*

flood came and destroyed them all,
reminding us that sin and suffering
stand related as cause and effect is
Divine order and appointment. And
this appears both nationally and
personally.
Lost confidence Is prevalent and
Is getting worse, which Is clear evi
dence of the downward trend and
degeneracy "of our country. Dear
people, it is no pleasure to me to
say this about my beloved country.
I wish something could be said or
done to~get people to think and
seriously consider their own destiny
and also that* of our beloved coun
try. Lost confidence is a serious
loss. I pity the ones who have lived
such low, dirty, deceitful lives whose
conduct Is so vile that no one has
any confidence In them and If we
have only a little respect or love for
them and they have lost about all
that Is worth living for and they
have no one to blame but them
selves, and we can all live a truth
ful, honest life and be worthyof the
confidence and respect of other peo
ple and lost confidence like many
other evils brings trouble and loss
to both the guilty and Innocent. j
Those who can be trusted to stick;
to the truth and right at all times
seeta to be few and hard to find is:
Mrs. Day's opinion and she is right.
It is a sad fact which tells of the
moral let down of our country. Fif
ty or sixty years ago about half of
our adult people were trustworthy.
But, oh, how are the mighty fallen.
Only a few are truly trustworthy,
and yet they are trusted by some
people. How often do parents al
low their daughters to go night or
day and most anywhere with young
men which they know to be untrust
worthy. Fifty years ago this would
not have been allowed by parents.
Oh, for the time to come when peo
ple will, be more interested in ?ir
tue and morality. The moral let
down of the present is terrific and
|far reaching. It is a heavy blow
on the foundation of our national
greatness. Virtue, once dethroned'
is seldom again enthroned. And this
often makes marriage a failure-at
jthe beginning. And this often Im
plies dissension, discord, ^pparation
j and divorce with all the train of:

HOW THE COOK
GOT EVEN WITH
AN F. F. V.
(Upton Wilson, Reidsvllle Review) '
Prof. J. E. McLean, superintend
ent of Rockingham county schools,
tells this one: l
A cultured scion of one of the
P. P. V.'s was a guest In a hunting
lodge on the North Carolina coast.
The Negro cook at this lodge prid
ed himself on his skill with skillet
and pan. ' The first day he placed
a savory dish of vension before the
Virginian. The latter ate o fit hear
tily, pronounced it good but thought
Virginia deer would have provided
meat just a bit more tempting. The
second day the cook served a most
delectable fish that had been caught'
off the North Carolina coast. This,
too, the Virginian went for gustily
but when he had finished he waS
nevertheless oi the opinion that the
fish would have been better had It
been caught in Virginia waters. i
The cook said nothing out tnought
a great deal, followed it by a bit of
action, with the result that soon
after the Virginian retired for the
night he sprang out of bed with a
small turtle clinging to his great
toe. His cries for help brought the'
cook flying to his aid. "What is
this thing that has me by the toe,"
the critical guest demanded, "a sea
turtle?"
"Nawsir, boss, dat ain'k&oottfScle.

"Kin you beat dat in Verginny?"
