"MADE IN NORTH CAROLINA"
WEEK OP JUNE 1-6
North Carolina's greatest industrial
exposition, a program which hundreds
of thousands of individuals and ev
ery community may have a share, is
scheduled to be held on the dates of
June 1 to 6, inclusive.
This event will be the second "Made I
in North Carolina Week" set aside
by proclamation of Governor 0. Max
Gardner and sponsored by the State
Department of Conservation and De
velopment. !
The main features of the week will
be display* of North Carolina-made ]
products in the retail store windows
and special sales of these goods as
a merchandising feature. Commun
ity functions covering a wide field
are being planned for cities and towns
throughout the state. These will in
clude banquets, joint civic gatherings,
style shows, and other features.
Some of the local trade organiza
tions have notified the Conservation :
Department that special studies of I
the industrial development and fur
ther prospects of their committees i
are being undertaken as a feature of <
"Made in North 'Carolina Week."
Schools and Women's clubs are among
the organizations featuring the pro
gram with projects and studies.
Observance of programs such as
have been outlined, according to of
ficials of the Conservation Depart
ment, will enlist the interest of many
rimes more people than an event fixed
at a single location. They point out,
to their knowledge, that this move
ment is the first attempt on the part
of any commonwealth to stage an
event of this kind on a state-wide
scale with an invitation to every man
ufacturer and retail merchant to take
a part Such a celebration gives an
opportunity literally to bring an in
dustrial exposition to the door of vir
tually every citizen of the state.
'This program," said officials of
the department, "can be staged vir
tually without any cost in the various
communities. What little expense as I
will be involved by the merchant and
manufacturer may be classed as an
investment for more business." . j

Science Develops New
Stain Resisting Wall
Paper to" iWthstand
Present Day Usage
New York, May 15.?iWhile wait
ing for the operator to connect you
with the wrong number, do you in
dulge your artistic talent by drawing
squares, scrolls and grotesque de
signs on the wall paper adjacent to
your telephone? When the tough
customer is ready to sign on the dot
ted line, do you feverishly shake
splatters of ink from your trusty
fountain pen with eagerness dulling
your sense of direction? Have you
ever inadvertantly spilled a bottle?
ahem!?of shaving lotion or a glass?
again ahem!?of mouth wash on the
wallpaper with the result that a pret
ty flowered pattern suddenly changes
to a Siberian sunset?
If you have in the past ? here's
news that will bring relief to your
aching conscience. Science has hark
ened to the cry of distress of dis
traught hotel keepers who have been
footing the greater part of America's
$30,000,000.00 wallpaper bill. E. I.
DuPont de Nemours & Company, aft
er years of research, have perfected
for the United Wallpaper Factories,
Inc., a wallpaper that resists every
sort of spot or stain that even the
most ingenious of careless guests can
devise. Several laboratory tests have
proven this marvelous new wallpaper
to be as resistant to soil as is a night
clerk to an uncertified check. This
enduring new wall covering has been
aptly named Endural.
If your travel's should take you to
New York's finest and latest hotel?
the new Waldorf-Astoria, or to any
other modern hostelry papered with
Endural, you can with reckless aban
don, and without extra charge, util
ize the walls of your hotel bedroom
for jotting addresses, and other dis
plays of artistic ability. Yon can
even throw your breakfast at it if the
impulse moves you. For no sooner
have you forsaken your room, than
along comes a chambermaid who
quickly washes away all traces of
your artistry or temper with nothing
more than soap and water. The next
occupant Is greeted by walls un
marred, undimmed, as fresh and as
bright as if they were papered that
morning.
Hotel owners estimate that this
new wallpaper will lower redecorat
ing costs by millions of dollars an
nually, a saving service, Increasing
comforts for guests and, we hope, to
decreasing tariffs.
A BROADWAY HAPPENING
A horse played a star part right
in the heart of New York's theotri
cal district the other day when it
backed into a mrmhole at 44th Street
and Broadway,
Its hind legs went down into the
manhole In which two laborers were
working ten feet below the street
level, and stuck there. Leading the
crowd of curious was the policeman
on the beat. He looked things over
and called the fire department and
the police patrol.
Meanwhile the crowd grew until
it numbered 3,000 or more people.
Those in front offered all kinds of
suggestions. The driver of a truck
took out a rope, made a sling under
the horse's belly, hitched the rope
to his auto, started the engine and
out came the horse, practically un
scratched.
When the firemen arrived they
found themselves with nothing to
do. The captain of the firemen gave
his O. K. to the job and asked the
truck driver where he learned how
to pull horese out of manholes.
"Oh, you have to do things like
this out where I come from," was
the rejoinder. IT was raised on a
farm." |

tional Park, Tennessee, is a spring

from an active to inactive state with
