Entered as second-class mail matter at the Postoffice at Plymouth, North Carolina, under the Act of March 3, 1887. FRIDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1926 Our idea of a poor joke is one on us. Not every plan to raise money succeeds. It’s funny how people are fooled on little gags. No, Pauline, Santa Claus is not a joke; ask Daddy, he knows Folks who visit "public libraries know who puts the "din ' in read ing. The beginning of 1927 will see many resolutions in force, just for a day. Now that Thanksgiving is over Ihe children know what to look forward to. The football season is over—may be the students will study a little before Christmas. The purchase of tuberculosis Christmas seals will help mankind rid itself of a great curse. Russia is a source of much debate but we notice that the debaters stay in this country. France shows signs of reducing her army, but what Great Britain wants to know is in the air. The way some men start work is to look over their mail, talk to their friends and then go to lunch. Some married folks think mar riage is no more important than the selection of a dancing partner. PeoDle who scoff about religion will be among those w'ho will find out that they have much to learn. Advertising in this journal of freedom and intelligence is the best way that we know for business getters. Our extra slice of pie for this week is awarded to the little boy who failed to get enough turkey last week. Permit the editor to congratulate the intelligent young lady who said that she really enjoyed our last issue. When you trade in your own town you are helping to increase the business of Plymouth. This means making all property here more valuable. Going to school ought to be at tractive to children; driving them to their lessons is a sure sign that somebody isn't using all their im agination. Judging from comments in the press the people of other countries do not have the impression that Uncle Sam is any Samaritan. You can t please everybody but if you pay your subscription you will have made a good impression in a good place. Frankly speaking, we believe blondes prefer gentlemen, too. _ No Secrets to Making Perfect Cup of Coffee Can Be Achieved By Following A 1'cw Simple Rules Says Famous Cooking Expert By Mildred Maddocks Bentley Foirnsrlv Director of Good Housekeeping Institute What is the secret of first-rate colTe —the kind that starts the day right that makes you feel “like a millio dollars” ? Literally hundreds of women—and surprising number of men—have aske > me this question in one form or an other. And it’s an important one—fo what can be more blighting to domesti happiness than a cup of muddy coffe or coffee improperly “creamed”? Anc on the contrary, what can be more ex hilarating than a good cup—fragrani golden, delicious ? Luckily there’s no hidden secre about making and serving the perfec coffee—it's just a matter of mindin your p’s and q’s and following a fei simple directions. Selection of CoBec There are many excellent brands o eoffee in the market—the choice of on • f these is largely a matter of individ ual taste. But X do wrant to say tha usually coffee in the bean retains it flavor longer than in the ground forr —so, if possible, buy the whole bean and grind your coffee fresh for eac meal. If, however, the breakfast hou —or fifteen minutes—is too hectic t ndmit of this extra step, at least kce your ground coffee in an air tight con tainer—a glass fruit jar for instanci And it’3 well to remember that th more finely the coffee is ground, th easier it is to extract its full strengt and flavor—consequently finely-groun coffee is economical and time-3aving. The Coffee Pot Connoisseurs maintain . that cojfc brewed in a metal pot-has a less del cate flavor than in a container o'f glas stone-ware or agate. Whatever kin of coffee pot you prefer—it should b scoured frequently and occasionall “boiled out” with water to which pinch of baking soda has been added then rinsed, dried, and left uncoveret If a percolator is used, the pip should bo carefully washed every da with a brush to remove all scum froi the preceding brew. For drip coffee, if you do not have special drip coffee pot, an ordinary or equipped with a double clieeseclot bag will serve the purpose. The cheesi cloth should be washed in cold wate after using and renewed at least on< n week. Keep the bag always moist. The “Creaming” This I consider quite as important 1 the actual brewing. Good coffee can 1 NOTICE OF SALE Pursuant tu the power of sale con tained in a deed ot rust from Wiltian H.

In my study of food habits, I am finding that every year more and more people prefer sweetened condensed milk in their cof fee. You see this kind is twice as rich and creamy as ordinary milk and fur thermore already contains sugar, thus serving the additional purpose of sweetening the coffee. Try it for a few days, and I think you will agree that the condensed milk gives a delight fully rich, smoothly blended drink, bringing out the real coffee flavor And of course it is very convenient, as it keeps fresh without ice even after the can is opened—and the cost is ex tremely moderate. Now as to the actual methods of brewing. There are several and your choice is entirely a matter of individ ual taste. If the directions are care fully followed, any of the methods will yield the “perfect cup of coffee”—mel low in flavor, with a delicate, fragrant aroma, free from sediment and of a dark golden hue. Dolled Coffee Rinse the pot with hot water, put the roffre In the pot —one rounded tablespoon of medium-ground coffee to each cup of boll!ug water, with an additional spoon “for the pot." Add a little vhlte of ccrg, or crushed egg shell and about oue-fourth cup of cold irate , stirring briskly. Add tho boiling water, pluro the coffee pot over heat, and bring to a full boll. Place on back of the stove or over low heat for about i-'Ti minutes to settle, before serving. Do not allow the coffee to become unsettled by careless pourlug. Percolated Coffee [7w one cup of finely-ground coffee to fix cups of rolling water. Place the coffee In the strainer In the ipper part of Iho pot and let the water bubble up through the tube, percolating through the coffee Into the lower part, until the coffee Is of the desired jtrength. five minutes being the usual time required. Servo at once. Coffee made In a percolator is not good if allowed to cook* after the required strength s reached. Drip Coffee Ihcat the pot by riaslug In hot water, and wet the strainer.' Measure carefully the coffee (flncly-grouml) Allowing one rounded tablespov>n to each cup of water.'Place In the drip-medium and pour bclllnj water througn the coffee very slowly. C-uver and let stand to drtp through and serve Immediately. Do not Allow tho brew to cool. 2f service Is delayed, place tho pot in or over hot water. Never reheat by placing aver the fire. . _ _ Steeped Coffee In making steeped coffee use one rounded tablespoon of coi.ee to each cup of water used, with an addltlotiu I spoor for the pot. Add cold writer. Fluce ovemtl.o lire and brlns tutlrkly to the 1'olllna point. Fltjhof let t stand fur a moment to eeltic or add a little told water. , Remember—the best cofFce will lose its flavor if allowed to stand. Coffee should always be freshly made . and served piping hot, as soon as it is brewed. If necessary to let stand, the pot should be tightly covered and the spout.closed by stuffing with soft cloth or paper, so that none of tho aroma and flavor may be lost.

' V " •' Z. V. NORMAN, V Trusted; I In 1925 Chevrolet astonished the automotive world by attain ing an annual production never before reached by any manufac turer of gearshift automobiles. Yet, so spectacular has been the inert. in demand for Chevro let cars, that anew and even more brilliant record is the climax for 1926. Thus, for tivo years in succession, Chevrolet has broken all its pre vious records and has set a new mark in automotive history. This splendid achievement re dttifcwaka** sults from a ste? d fast adh ercn to thefundamentalChevroietpt <.cy of building a car of the finest pos sible quality to sell at a low price. That the vast majority of bt: - rs now demand a car of this type— and that Chevrolet has been suc cessful in building such a ca.— possessing the highest degree cf smooth performance, smart ap pearance, and economical oper ation—is proved by Chevrolet’s success during the year now drawing to a close. Come in and see this record-breaking car. 1 VVIIVCIilC.I» 1C JlilN UUUIH UMI U , 0 * H<cituac VC|li;<CUK. 1 Touring or Roods ter $510, Coupe or Coach $645, Sedan $735, Landau $765, WT on Truck $375 (Chorus only), 1-Ton Truck $495 (Chassis only), All prices f.o.b.

In a few horn's the swelling disap peared and the pain was soon gone.' Healing qualities of myrrh have been known since Bible days, but when myrrh is scientifically com bined with other healing and anti septic ingredients, as it is in Han ford’s Balsam of Myrrh, it is small wonder its effects are sensational.
