Mention was made in The Gazette a few days ago of the series of papers dealing with the economic and social aspects of Gaston county, prepared by the department of rural eco nomics of the State University. These papers take up in detail (1) The History of Gaston County, (2) Minerals and Soils, (3) Timber Resources, (4) "Drainage and Water Power, (5) Facts About Industries, (6) Facts About the Folks, (7) Seven-Year Gains in Rural Schools, (8) Facts About Wealth and Taxation, (9) Farm Conditions and Practices, (10) The Local Market Problem and Food and Feed Production, ((11) Things to be Proud of, (12) Gaston's Problems and their Solution. The Gaston County Club at the University plans to have these papers published in the form of a bulletin which will be distributed free among the people of the county, and since the University has no funds for printing such bulletins, the pub- lication depends upon the cooperation given by the business men of this county. The Gazette takes pleasure in presenting this matter to the people of the county. As Mr. Tom Brawley, business manager, says, we have had county histories and county geographies in abundance, but never have had any bulletins devoted to the economic and social problems of the county. A mere glance at the above list of titles is enough to assure an interesting and highly instructive bulletin. We'll Venture the assertion that the average citizen of Gaston county knows next to nothing about any one of the several topics enumerated. Gaston county has a remarkably smart bunch of boys at the University this year, and as boys from this oounty have a habit of doing, they are taking a prominent part in every phase of University work. Let the business men of the county back them up by enabling them to publish this bulletin, so that Gaston county will be one of the first in the State to lead off in this field of liberal education. Tom Brawley will be glad to give any additional information. PRETTY BED-ROOM FURNITURE . We are right up to the minute on pretty bed-room suits and odd pieces.

Jones and little daughter, Susanna, and Miss Martha Latimer left several days ago for Richmond, Va., on a visit to Mrs. Jones' sister, Mrs. H. P. Cook. Miss Latimer will go on to Xew York to spend some time. JOIN THE LEGION. The Gazette is hoping that next week when the first meet ing is called for the purpose of organizing Gaston post, Amer ican Legion, there will be a 100 per cent attendance from among the ex-service men in the county. Don't misunderstand the object of the American Legion It is not an attempt on the part of the Government to keep on track of the veterans of the World War for future emergencies, but an organization formed by the men themselves to honor the memories of the men who did their duty in a time of great need, of the men who made the supreme sacrifice of their very lives. An organization in which the friendships formed under the most trying circumstances may be kept where buddies may have a mutual ground and meeting place, a social hour of equals, all ex-members of the forces of the United States. World War Veterans, think! Do you realize that by an organization such as the American Legion, and by using your united strength, no autocrat will be able to start so easily another world conflict? Do your part. Join the American Legion. Show the coun try that you are going to do your duty in times of peace as you did in war, by making others 100 per cent Americans. An Appeal For Clothes. clerk of the Court S. C. Hendricks has in his care a homeless orphan, six-year-idd boy. whom he is sending to the Children's Home Society at Greensboro. The boy's mother is dead and his father is serving a sentence on the chain-gang. Before sending the boy away Mr. Hen dricks would like to fit him out with clothing and asks the help of any one ho has any old clothes that would fit a six year-old boy. Any article of cloth ing that has been outgrown by some of Gastonia 's youngsters would be accept able to Mr. Hendricks. Shoes, stockings, underwear and a suit of clothes are needed. Mr. Hendricks will gladly call for anything that may be given, or it may be left at his office at the court house. His 'phone number os 419-L. SAN SALVADOR, Thursday, Oct. 16. T. Sambola Jones, United States min ister to Honduras, gave a banquet in honor of President Bogran last evening, according to a despatch received here. The function was attended by many per sons prominent in Honduras. Commander Douglas W. Fuller, of the United States cruiser Baltimore, has paid a visit to President Bogran and it is said Honduran political circles comment vari ously on his action. WOMAN SUFFERS TOR MENTS OF CONDEMNED LENOIR COLLEGE. Next Sunday morning the Lutherans of Tennesse Synod, embracing congregations scattered throughout North and South Carolina and Virginia, will launch their campaign for the $300,000 endowment fund for Lenoir college. For the past several weeks a campaign of preparation has been in progress and a great mass of literature has been sent out to all the peo ple. As much as 75,000 pieces of literature, or 300,000 pages, a page for every dollar asked in the campaign, have been dis tributed. Lenoir College is too closely connected with Gaston county for the Lutherans of this county to neglect this great cause. Lenoir College has educated hundreds of Gaston county citizens and these alumni owe it to their alma mater to rally to her in this call for help. This endowment fund, if raised, will put the old college in position to render better and more efficient ser vice than ever in its history. The Gazette does not think for a moment that the Lutherans in this city and county will fail to respond in the most liberal manner. Just as other causes in other denominations are meeting with wholehearted responses, so will the cause of a bigger and better Lenoir College be met by the Lutherans, and other friends of Lenoir College. Our chief trouble is that most of us are determined to rock . the boat until given our own way about things. Now that the public has a list of the gifts Wilson received in Europe, can't some senator think of a new way to annoy him? Even fn,thir democratic country, Albert, a king outranks everythinsr except an ace. If we keep on at this rate, it will soon require half of us to keep peace among the rest of us. W .thout in ''.".in the lettei M.nt the ;!! ib I 'ii. i u if ! . think of the counties i lids of suffering women in Ann tinning names or quoting s (if those who write a- uffering t'nat they have thous ic;i a- cause of it f Ninety-nine times out of a hundred this rapid decline of physical health and ener gy is not due to any disease or organic dis order that is peculiar to women alone. Ninety-nine times out of a hundred the cause of the rapid decline of your wom en 's strength is the neglect of Acid Stom ach and the pity of it is that practically all the misery, agony and loss of health and vitality that these millions of wom en endure could be avoided if only people would realize what a frightfully danger mis condition Acid Stomach is and how certain and sure it is, if neglected, to make its victims suffer the torments of the condemned. Because the firsf symptoms of Acid Stomach seem trifling, nothing is done. There is a little belching of gas and a sense of sourness in the stomach, a loss of appetite, had breath, blotchy complex ion with now and then a sense of dizzi ness with specks that seem to float before the eves, but the victim is not alarmed. Then follows habitual or chronic consti pation, which allows great accumulated masses of undigested foo4 to clog up the system, causing dyspepsia, biliousness and a complete breakdown, resulting in loss of weight, health and strength. Then comes the most horrible mental depres sion imaginable and after that excruciat ing, agonizing pains that bring the sweat out on the forehead in great beads while the hands and feet grow icy cold and the once strong man or woman is left limp as a rag and far too weak and helpless to battle with life's problems or take any part in the joy of existence. If only everybody would take Pepsinol before the breakdown comes. It is so much easier to prevent than to repair. Pepsinol is the marvelous preventive of such conditions. It is scientifically ac curate in its action. There is nothing like it as a reconstructive tonic and strength builder. It corrects the causes of gas and the formation of acid in the stomach. It improves the appetite and general health almost immediately. It aids digestion, induces natural move ments of the bowels and promotes healthy restful sleep. When you think of "pep" think of Pepsinol. Genuine Pepsinol is made only by The Peplax Medicine Co., Memphis, Tenn., and is in strict accordance with the Medical Standards of the United States Pharma cnpea. To be convenient for everybody and yet to prevent substitutes being sold for Pepsinol, we have appointed .1. II. Kennedv Pruir Company special Pepsinol agent for Gastonia. adv. And Kodak Supplies Having only recently taken the agency for the Eastman Kodak, we have on dis play a complete line of brand new kodaks and supplies. All he leading styles and sizes of kodaks kept in stock at all times. In the matter of supplies we have them al ways fresh and in sufficient quantities to take care of the local demands. Leave your films with us to be developed. .iCeinnedly's The Rexall Drug Store At the Corner On the Square Phone 84 y Mil . rX 1 L- tr.i rzA b n r CHARACTER - A BANK is like an individual, it is known by its character and its reputation.
