"While we would regret to see he railroads tied up. ve Ifeel that it is' better to have tis fight out once and for all and de termine which is the stronger power, the unions or private business. "We believe this fight should come and be done with even if it is necessary to utilise every resource of the govern ment to protect the railroads in the job and relieve business from that uncertainty for all time. REDUCED ROUND TRIP FARES TO RALEIGH Aqcount NORTH CAROLINA STATE FAIR For the above occasion the Atlantic Coast Line will sell round, trip tickets to Raleigh at REDUCED FARES from all agencv stations in Nsrth nu for all trains from October 15t!i to 21st, inclusive and for trains schedul ed to arrive Raleigh before noon of their effort to run the roads with October 22'nd, limited returning to non-union labor if it can be pro cured, and we believe it can. Making concessions of this or that thing does not settle tho question, but is just like putting off going to a dentist to have an uneasy, aching tooth pulled; it 'is simply putting off a disagree able job until tomorrow.

Over a million families are econo mizing on coal by heating their home:? selectively. They keep the whole house warm with the regu lar coal heater and use a Perfec tion, "the portable radiator," to make drafty hails, hay windows and living rooms comfortable and safe.

OIL COMPANY TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1921. j TEN STRAWBERRY PLANT ERS WANTED W Can t It At the last meeting of the Chamber of Commerce it was de cided to urge a number of farm t'rms to plant two or three acres each in strawberries as pioneers in diversified farming and to demonstrate to the farmers gen erally that a profit can be made through the growing of that crop. A committee was appointed to secure the services of some man to advise with the farmers who are interested in this undertaking with reference to planting, culti vation and marketing. This com mittee called on Mr. D. E. Hen derson and asked him if he would undertake this work, knowing that he was raised in what is known as the strawberry seetion of the state. He readily agreed to do his, saying that he wouiu giacuy ana ireely give , part of his time and experience 1o aid in the establishment of j this industry in this section. The' argument may be used that we j cannot get to the market early enough, but that is not true as there is a progressive market, and we would go to market just after the crop in far eastern North -arohna was exhausted and j probably receive as good prices. It is realized by everyone that;fl we must make a start toward di versified farming and this un dertaking will be a start in that ! direction. It is hoped and urged that at least ten farmers will come forward and offer to join in this undertaking and demon stration. If they will hand in their names to this office, or to Messrs. Henry T. Clark, Robert Josey or Chas. J. Shields, a con ference will be arranged and def inite steps taken to put this movement over. Will these ten men act at once? We would like to describe the many new things we are showing in Ladiek-Ready-ta-Wear, hut wle can't do it. So we are going to ask that you call and give us the pleasure of showing them to you. We thank you. Agehts for Footer's Dye Works. mm i t X , (New Jersey) SSBggSCflHTYOIlj . - NV jf Ask vour dealer ff WJjMfeffi ""nm" J I v about the Perfection H hFfec? sHK j"8"1?"

We have no fight, nor animosity against the unions as organizations, and we feel that they can do much good for their members, hut when it comes to dictating to the railroads, or any Other private interests, as for that, as to what they shall or shall not pay, threatening a tie up of that particular business unless their demands are grant ed, it is another and very differ ent thing. lne railroad business is too closely allied with every other New Goods Arriving Daily Fresh Stock!
