JUDGE WAY BUYS
KNOLLWOOD LAND'
(Continued From Page 1)
niunities many times what they will
be asked for a site in Knollwood, and
^hen they pay that price in other
places they suffer all the disadvant
ages of those communities. In the
Knollwood neighborhood they have all
the charm and pleasures of the Sand
hill neighborhood. With the Mid-
Pines section taking care of the big
park which is the golf course, the
county and communities providing for
the roads, the fine water system and
those things and with all conveniences
at hand. The Judge says he has no
immediate plans of development, but
that he just happened to have a lit
tle availabe capital and he didn’t
know of a thing that struck him as a
wiser investment for it than a few
more acres in Knollwood village, and
he intimates that he may have more
of it yet before he is as old as Me-
thusala, if he happens to meet enough
dollars rolling up hill to buy it with.
He also says that he will sell some
of it some day, because even though
there is a lot of unoccupied ground
out of doors, there also is a lot of
people looking for homes in the
Sandhills country, and no more ground
is being made like that around Knoll
wood village. But he adds that what
he sells will be at higher price than
what he buys, for he expects to hold
it long enough for folks to find out
more about value than they know now.
For while a good many think land
through this neighborhood is dear its
unusual excellence for home building
makes it so cheap at present prices
that he would rather buy it than sell.
The activity going on in real estate
all through th^ neighborhood
strengthens the Judges argument. A
great amount of land is changing
hands and at the best prices ever
known in this section.
TRYING TO GET
REDUCED FRUIT RATES
The Interstate Commerce Commis
sion has had a delegation at the Car
olina hotel hearing arguments by the
fruit men in reference to a reduc
tion of freight rates on peaches. The
advances in recent years have raised
the price of delivering fruit in New
York and other points to a figure the
peach men protest, and a strenuous
effort is underway to get a reduction
that will approximate the price of re
cent years. The dewberry men are
also trying to get an adjustment of
freight rates from the advances of a
couple of years ago, and strong ar
guments have been put before the
commission on the subject. Buyers
as well as growers are represented in
the effort to get the rates down to
what is regarded by the fruit men as
a reasonable figure, and some of the
growers insist that a better rate must
be had if the industry is to live. They
regard the advance as wholly unjus
tified.
farm life boys
WIN TWO GAMES
Tuesday afternoon Farm Life de
feated Vass High, with the score of
4 to 1. The game was slow but at
several points interesting. The Vass
boys showed good form for the small
amount of practice which they have
had. The Farm Life boys were not
up to their average in fielding and
hitting, but played a very good game.
Batteries were, Vass, Byrd and D.
Thompson. Farm Life, Adcock and
Ferguson. ^
Wednesday afternoon the Farm Life
boys defeated Carthage High to the
tune of 8 to 1. The Farm Life boys
showed good form, both in fielding and
batting. This is the fifth game that
the Farm Life boys have played, los
ing only one, that to Jackson Springs.
Indications are that Farm Life will
produce the best team that it has had
in several years.
Batteries were: Carthage, McKin-
nis and Carter. Farm mLife: Moore
and Ferguson.

LITTLE RIVER STORES, INCORPORATED
VASS - LAKEVIEW - SOUTHERN PINES
The Supply ouse for the Table and the Household and the Farm
Little River Stores Undertake to provide the farm and
house with Foods, Feeds, Market Supplies, Etc., and also to find

Our Market Sells High-Quality
Meats at Low Prices
We have a sanitary market, with
modern equipment and everything is han

farmers to make the best stock possible.
Our Grocery Department
Has One Tradition
Goods we can recommend to any one,
and we see that we buy at a price that
allows us to sell right.
Merchandise, Flour, Feeds
And Everything
If you have not thought about it
you might notice that the Little River
Stoes have come from modest beginning
a couple of years ago to handle such quan
tities of merchandise that the company
ranks already with the big mercantile es
tablishments of this part of the state. Al
ways a reason for advancement of that
character, and the reason is satisfied cus
tomers with right goods and right prices.
You can’t beat that combination.
To buy in car loads used to be a
big purchase in this section, but we have
reached the place where we have had to
order a train load at a time. That’s how
Little River finds favor with the peo
ple.

Our Savings Department
tnmtnmmmunii
We wish to call your attention to the fact that this bank main
tains a first class Savings Department. We receive on savings
accounts any amount from one dollar up. On each account we
compound the interest semi-annually, adding the interest to the
account without any trouble on the part of the depositor.
Additions may be made at any time, and under normal con
ditions deposits may be withdrawn in whole or in part at any
time. On these savings accounts we pay 4 per cent interest.
We recommend this kind of account to persons who have
money for which they have no immediate use and which they
want kept in a safe place until needed. The compounding of
interest is automatic. This money is not idle, but is constantly
making more money for you, acctimulating for the rainy day or
the day of need when other sources fail.
We would be pleased to have you call and open a savings
account with us.
