This was decided at a meeting of
the various church choirs and the
Woman's club held in the Cham
ber of Commerce rooms Friday af
ternoon.
The meeting was called by Dr.
Pain, township chairman and the
consensus of opinion was that Dunn
should send a choir to th« big sing.
Mrs. Harper Holliday was elected
musical director and the first prac
tice wil be held in the First lisp
list church Friday evening of thia
week at 8 o’clock. There is plenty
jf good musical talent in and around
Dunn and with Mrs. Holliday si
director the choir sent to Lilliogyon
from Dunn will offer strong compe

Don't Scrub SiW;
Um Modern
“If your silver is tarnished
you would like to clean it with very
Httle escort, pot into a bright clean
aluminum pan one tablespoonfutl
of soda and one of tab," says Mrs.
Jsne S McKimmon, State Agent iu
Home Demonstration Work. “Pour
on this a quart of boiling water and
add your tarnished silver. Let the
water cover the silver and it will
be only a short while before it
emerges bright and shining."
"When the tarnish is removed
wash in hot soapy water and nib
with a soft cloth. Silver is tarnish
ed by the sulphur gas from burn
ing coal or more frequently by cer
tain foods which contain sulphur
and is easily cleaned by this meth
od.”
"The aluminum pan method of
cleaning does not injure the aihrei
in any way,” states Mrs. McKim
mon, “and is easier by far than the
old way of scrubbing When the
silver is put into the pan it rests on
an aluminum base which is to a cer
tain extent like an electrode and
action takes place between the met
al and the chemicals used. When
paste nr powder is used for clean
ing there is danger of scratching
the silver but it gives a satiny finish
that is very beautiful and frequently
the housewife will use a soft doth
with a hit of paste to produce this
effect after she removes the tarnish
with the aluminum pan process."

the order of the early Methodist

Despite the price decrease of ex-i

aigest customer. Shipments to the
European countries during that par
ed constituted fifty per cent of the

The forty per cent increase in im

^ “Total exports of the United

lays, "and imports into the United
States from Europe to $613,000,000
Our balance of trade was unfavor

thus the favorable balance with
Europe, amounting to $337,000X100;

“When Lady-beetle* are alnmd

“it it almost a sure tigr that the
