Board of Education Expects To Effect Big Saving Through Improved Transportation The Moore County Board of Educa tion is effecting a saving of approx imately $2,500.00 on transportation of school children during the current school year and at the same time greatly improving the bus service, according to announcement made at a recent meeting of the board. It was revealed that this reduction of expenditure and the extension of superior transportation service to all the schools of the county, including- about 100 more pupils this year than have ever been transported before, is being brought about by the con solidation of 19 small bus loads of children riding to school on 10 old, dilapidated and dangerous busses last year at Carbonton, Glendon, Car thage and Cameron into 11 large loads accommodated by 7 spacious busses of the most modern design at the same places this year. Patrons have been expressing gen eral satisfaction as a result of the new arraAigement which eliminates eight second and third loads and much waiting for busses. The Board expressed the desire to further im prove the service as early as possi ble by consolidation of other loads and placing a larger number of chil dren on first loads. eatre METAL LATH Of the same high quality as we are furnishing for “Homewood,’’ the model house in Knollwood, is kept in stock by us and you can get it here at reasonable prices.

Take it from me. IVe seen it and I’m convinced.” The foregoing is a tip we have just received from the Coast on the com edy, “Up The River,” whcih is the attraction at the Carolina Theatre this Thursday, Friday and Saturday. And here is some more; “Maurine Watkins, playwright, who demonstrat ed her cleverness v^^hen she wrote the stage play, “Chicago,” authored this original, which gets far off the beat en track of jail yarns and stays that way clear through to the end. From every angle, “Up The River” clicks. To begin with, the yarn is there. The dialogue does full justice to the subtleties and twists of the story. The cast too, very patently caught the spirit of the thing. Clear down the line and beginning with Spencer Tracy, the performances are fine, the most important of the lot being Claire Luce, musical comedy performer and novice in talkers. Picture audiences wont know who Spencer Tracy is but it is a cinch they will be asking for lots more of him after “Up The River” makes the rounds. Coupled with him is Warren Hymer, who has been playing tough egg roles in many talkers. They make a marvelous team. Both hard as nails, you see Spencer Tracy as the smart roughneck and Warren Hymer as Dannemora, the dumbbell. And their support reads like who is w’ho with Humphry Bogart, William Collier, Sr., George MacFarlane, Sharon I-ynn, Richard Keene and a lot of others. “Up The River” is unusual and unusually good.” All Show Five hundred extras, the largest number ever taken on location of this sort since the advent of sound pic tures, were used by Paramount at its big camp and set at Point Hueneme, California, for “The Spoilers,” which is the attraction at the Carolina Thea tre for Monday, Tuesday and Wed nesday. The set, a mile long and a quarter- mile wide, duplicated in every detail the boom town of Nome, Alaska, as it was thirty years ago at the time cf Rex Beach’s classic story. The Hollywood contingent lived at the big tent city for three weeks, utilizing the tents and cabins that were a part of the Nome set, for beneath its rough exterior this new Nome was modern and with every living convenience. Gary Cooper is featured in this first all-talking production of “Thr Spoil ers.” Supporting him in the cast are Kay Johnson, Betty Compson, Wil liam Boyd, Harry Green, James Kirk wood, “Slim Summerville and others of favor with cinema fans. The big fight scene is as impres sive as ever, with Gary Cooper and William Boyd, tearing, lunging and clawing at each other; as the crit ical shadows of Farnum, Santshi and Sills stand apace. Other emotion- punishing moods, too, has the narra-^ tive and romance, feminine charm, comedy and willful rowdying. THANKS, SAY THE WOMEN, FOR CLEAN-UP WEEK The Vass Woman’^ Culb wishes to expresses its thanks to the people of the town and especially to the busi ness men who cooperated so heartily in putting across the clean-up pro gram last week. The appearance of the town has been much improved by the burning of paper and clearing away of rubbish. The children could do much to help out in keeping the streets clean if they would remember to throw chewing gum and candy wrappers in waste baskets instead of on the streets, and they would be setting a good example for the older ones to follow. Bernice Graham, M. B. Clayton, Jr., and Russell Thomp son deserve especial mention for their work on clean-up day. FRANKLIN SALES CO. IN VOLUNTARY BANKRUPTCY Voluntary petition in bankruptcy was filed Monday in Federal Court in Greensboro by the Franklin Sales Company, of Aberdeen, together with a schedule of liabilities, totalling $23,- 151, and assets valued at $19^01.

Page in Aberdeen on October 24th at 10 o’clock.
