Dun Welcome* You
Dum extends the gland
band of welcome to the distin
guished guests ,-vith which it is
to he honored thin week—the
Buiday school superintendents
of Eastern North Carolina. Thin
body of visit014 to ‘ the boat
town under the sun” will be
made on of the moet represen
tative and leading ritiaens of
the various towns and rural
cotr7ra.oii.ler from which they
cone. Then truly Dunn is hon
ored to have these Christian
leaders of h'retem North Caro
line OS its gt.-3.ltft.
The Sunday school superin
tendents and co-workers as a
class are doin- more perhaps
than any other to promote and
cmnurage right living. This
being true, the very best citi
zens are picked for these offi
ce*. This means that the very
'wi ciwzen* iroiii many town*
and rural roir...un;tics In East
ern North Carolina will awem
ble her® to make plana for fill
in* their mission to a greater
degree of efficiency. i
Again wo say Dunn will be
honored to have so large a per
rent of what might l>e termed
“The salt of Eastern North
Carolina's citizenship” as fu
guests and again ws extend
the visitor* a sincere welcome,
trust in* lhat they will find
their stay in Dunn a pleasant
one.
Faith in The Future
James H. Farley, of New
York city, who operates a
T chain- of stare* j* eighty-fin
■» of Consmdrce'ha predicting
the^vraateot wave of prosper
ity in the South that it has ever
\V)»ai he says is of In
termjt to the people of the
►jouth and It is to be hoped that
Jus prophecy comes true. Here
I* what he says:
“The South is due for the
greatest period of proxpertiy ft
ha* ever known. Wages hav*
inrreazed in the South in great
er prop® -lion than in the North
or Kiddle West. Sales are bet
ter and payments for goods are
better In the South than ever
bero-e While business la good
generally everywhere through
out the country, and coming
fall season promises to be the
best in history, it is the South
that shows the greatest and
most solid gain. The building
program in the South exceeds
that of tho North right now and
hon es and new business opera
tions are progressing on a big
scale.
“The smallest towns now de
mand ‘Fifth Avenue' styles,
and are a* up-to-date in this
regard as an v of the big cities.
It Is no longer possible to play
off ‘last year’s models’ on th«
snail town folks, for Fifth
Aienu* extends through the
be Art of every city and town
in die country.”

short of amusing to glance o ver
the correspondence from the
various rural commnnitle* in

the name* by which they are
known.
it'is true that most commu
nities get their name from the
community church or tehoob
and why many of the names of
these should have been chosen
is a question. In a semi-weekly
(taper before us now we note
the following: ‘Bear Marsh
News- and •Thunder Swamp
.-totes.” It would seem that the
acmes in many instances were
dt nved from some stream, and
then the question arises. Who
flamed the streams? In travel
ing through the rural districts
oi:a finds churches known as
Hog Swamp. Big Branch, tang
Branch. Flea Hill, Hog Wal
low, Bug Hill. Great Marah,
etc. To say the least, very little
di <action was brought into
pluy by the early settlers who
< t ass such names.
The Massachusetts banker

The fact that early estimate*

what exaggerated means that
th -re are more five victims who
need assistance. So loosen up.

Ford Cor* Being Improved
Detroit, .Mich, Sept. 9.— Intro
duction ot a higher radiator, bring
ing new and improved body lines K
all types of Ford cart, is announced
today by the Ford Motor Company
The changes hive just gone into
effect, and the various types are now
in production.
While the la rver radiator has beer
made standard .«r all types, an.
while H has uiaiU- possible other bet
kcdciv mynncom
which has resulted in more graceful
lines
The new radiator sets an inch and
a half higher than ihe former and
has an ijinm nt the bottom which
joins a similar apron effect of the
fender on either side, giving a high
I ly finished appearance to the
front of the car. Thi larger radiat
or also increases cooling efficiency
Most conspicuous among the new
tyjies is tlic Ford coupe, which i.* of
entirely new body design and con
si ruction, resulting in a more trim
exterior a|(f*nrance, more comfort
able seating arrangement and a
greater luggage carraying rapacity
From the dash there is a graceful
rwtep m the cowl to ihc radiator,
bringing a pleasing effect to the
front. The doors are wide and open
forward, making access and exit
easy. They are neavily framed for
rigidity and strength. The com
ixtrtment at the rear Ua». been en
larged to afford inereaicd carrying
capacity. '1‘he gasoline tank Is under
the *cat. with divided cushions to
afford easy filling of the tank from
the right side, making it unnecessary
for the driver to leave his scat. Ven
tilator in Ihe cowl and a visor over
the windahiebl add much to the at
tractiveness of die car. A new rear
tender ot more ray character aim
is a feature.
Four Door Solan. This car, high
ly )H>;mlar since its introduction a
yeiir ago beratt-c obits low, graceful
lines, notv piesrnii a more sturdy
appearance.
Another feature coming as the
result of the change made in the
front of the car. including larger
cowl, radiator ami hood, is that oc
ni|««nU of the front seat are afford
ed more space, thus insuring added
riding comfort
'Iany other little imjirovenients
anil refinements are noticeable, In
ctmling revolving type window reg
ulators for at) ilnnr windows and
a <loose light for illuminating the
Interior.
The new cat* will he on disfitay
