hirst Cotton Of The Year Ginned In County Recently (Robersonville Weekly Herald) The first bale of cotton ginned in Mai tin County this season was ginned at the Taylor Mill and Gin Company here last week The cotton was grown by W. H. Rogers, colored preacher who lives near Williamston. Rogers stated that he had an unusually good clop* and that he expected to harvest at least a bale per acre. Willie Taylor, owner and op erator of the local gin, said he had ginned a total of 100 bales through noon Monday. The first 1 ush of the season was exper ienced last Saturday when sev eral loads of cotton were in line for ginning before being sold. Prices thus far paid for cotton 'Wonderland' Girl Was Alice Liddell When Lewis Carroll wrote “Al ice in Wonderland”, which Walt Disney has brought to the screen in Technicolor and as a hilarious; all-cartoon-musical, it was an op en secret that the original of his heroine was Alice Pleasance Lid dell, the second daughter of the dean of Christ Church College at Oxford University. Carroll, whose real name was Charles Ludwidge Dodgson, was a clergyman and a professor of mathmatics at Christ Church at the time Though “Alice in Won derland" was not wrtton and pub lished until lfir>5, Carroll first told the story at a summer afternoon picnic in 18t>2. • In 1928 Dean Liddell’s daugh* ter sold the original manuscript Visit Hcilig and Meyers Williunisloii for the “Host Itnxs In Furniture" this season has ranged from 33 to 34 cents per pound. Mr. Taylor said the crop was larger than in several years and tno quality was fair to good. “The crop is yet somewhat green and the seed is weighing heavy but I expect this situation to clear up with cooler weather," the gin op erator said. Of the 100 bales ginned this season a majority of the cotton was grown in Martin, Pitt, Tyr rell and Chowan counties. The first ball' of cotton ginned by the Taylor Mill and Gin Com pany and grown by Elder Rogers and his son, W. H. Rogers, Jr., was purchased by Sherwood L. Roberson, local cotton broker and buyer. | IN ROBERSONVILLE | V---✓ Plans are being made by the Office of Price Stabiliza tion in Raleigh to send a team of business analysts-to Rober sonville on Wednesday morn ing, September 26, it was an nounced yesterday by the Robersonville Merchants As sociation.

Take the way it steers — so light and true that it seems to guide itself Take its ease of control. More than a million owners now know the wondrous freedom from tension and strain that goes with Dynaflow Drive.* It’s eas\ to see where this eager beauty gets its standout performance, when you glance at the list of all-stni engineering fea tures shown above.
