Gantonia's celebration ot' Armistice Day was not what it should have been. This is not meant as ieliecting in any way upon the Victory Sing- staged by the women of the music club. Goodness knows, if it hat! not been for that celebration, we would not have known the day from any one of a hundred others. Ami they deserve all honor and praise for the excel lent program they arranged for the occasion. But there should have been a celebration that was all-em-tracing, city and county-wide in its scope. Other com munities in other parts of the country pulled off the biggest oc casion in their history. Richmond's celebratnon began on the 10th and lasts until the 15th. Has Gastonia become so mercenary, and its civic self so commercialized in the race for the almighty dollar that it cannot take a brief period from its money-making days to pay honor and tribute to the memory of a date that is not only national, but world-wide in its significance? What has be come of the much-vaunted patriotism of a year ago? Is it possible that Armistice Day does not mean any more to the folks who stayed at home than any other so-called national holiday in America? Was it real patriotism last year when istice? Or were last vear's cele- brations nothing but wild orgies of revelry and delight over the I thought of war-time discomtorts and sacrmces removed ; Now is the time to plan for a celebration next year that should eclipse any thing ever held hero. Our Large Assortment will Make it Easy for Your Selections You Are Invited. Gastonia Furniture Co. The Home of Good Furniture WHAT DO YOU THINK? "The factories and mills all close around noon now, and who ever heard of a painter, carpenter, or plumber, working after dinner on Saturday any nvre? So the last lone reason for the clerk's thirteen-hor.r day is gone," thus concludes an article in Key's Weekly Store News appearing in Monday's Charlotte papers. And at the risk of giving David Ovens a lot of free advertising in Gastonia w e are quoting some more of his stuff about this early closing on Saturday nights. He further says : "We believe that any store employing any large number of women that keeps them at work all day Saturday, and until 8, 9, or 10 o'clock at night, is "out of step" with the times, and is in an indefensible position. "Every leading organization in Charlotte, as well as Or ganized Labor, has come out in favor of early-Saturday closing, and Ivey's is glad to be in with the crowd, who is in line with this new spirit of Progress and a fair deal for the other fel low." For the past two or three weeks The Gazette has been trying to hammer this same idea into the heads of our folks in Gastonia, but for some reason or other it does not go. It may be that we are on the wrong trail altogether and advocating something all wrong, but we think not. If we are wrong set us straight. Some of the merchants may not like the attitude of this paper on this subject, but like Ivey's we believe that "all the leading stores of the city" favor such a move. We know that all right thinking people do, and for the rest of them we don't care. Of course, it is nothing to us. We shall continue to work on Saturday nights as usual when it is necessary to get this column filled. But The Gazette wants to see Gastonia take its place among the list of progressive and leading cities that ae adopt ing this move in order to give the men and women who work hard all week, a rest on Saturday nights. Sas Ivey's ad again: "Along with all the other leading stores of the city, Ivey's closes up early Saturday nights, and the public has said: "That's the right thing to do," by doing most all its shopping before supp ?r." HOME OWNERSHIP Gastonia citizens as a rule, are home-owning people. There is nothing like the satisfaction and pride and content ment that comes from the sense of ownership of one's home. As the Morganton News-Herald says: "There are many ways by which a community may be judged as to the character of its citizenship, but that town or city in which the larger percentage of the families own their own homes can always be rated high. Home ownership in duces such contentment as few other possessions bring. It should be the ambition of every family to own their own home to pay rents to no landlord. "Many people advance the argument that where rents are not exorbitant it is usually cheaper to rent than to own a home, considering interest on the investment, taxes, upkeep, etc. From a financial standpoint this may oftentimes be the case, but when those things with which money cannot be compared satisfaction, security, contentment, home pride are consid ered, the theory will not hold. Where it is at all possible every family should work toward home ownership." Gastonia wants an "old-fashioned" political convention to nominate the Democratic candidate for Congress, if it is found that the time between now and December 16th is too short to go to the expense and trouble of arranging for a primary. Some thing like the Craig-Kitchen-Horne ensemble of years ago in Charlotte. Does Gastonia need a landing field for the convenience of air scouts who will ere long be making the route for the JVashington-Atlanta mail line? Gastonia needs more houses.

THE PRINCIPLE OF THIS WONDERFUL IN VENTION The Wonder Merger is a simple, sturdy churn, as pictured, having a specially constructed plunger with a valve that pumps or impels air into the contents of Milk and Butter, causing them to merge in such man ner that NOT A DROP OF MILK REMAINS. So simple in operation that a child can use it. Think of what a boon this little device will be in your- home, with butter at its present exorbitant cost. The merging is purely scientific. The Butter anil Milk, once merged, become as one, a most DELICIOUS AND CREAMY product. The fact that the butter fat is reduced is an argument in favor of the Merged But ter, as delicate stomachs that are disturbed by rich butter fat will accept the MERGER BUTTER where Butter itself would distress. For children and invalids, Merged Butter has the endorsement of the medical profession. THE KEEPING QUALITY of Merged Butter is truly wonderful. In fact, in a cool place it will keep as long and remain as FIRM as the original butter. It has the creamy, delicious taste of Fresh Country Butter that everyone likes so well. On CORN AND HOT CAKES it is especially delightful. The container will hold easily one quart (32" ounces), but half the quantity, that is, ONE POUND of Merged Butter, may be made out of One-half Pound Butter and One-Half Pint Milk.

A wries of lioiind anil iiiiiMiiiiei piiarniac entic al .jour nals, covering many of the better known American and some Knglish publications on pharmacy, a few of the volumes dating back to the civil war period, is included in the lit. In all there are more thai, a hundred volumes and many additional pamphlets, most of them relating closely to the work of the pharmacy sclioool. The rarest set of volumes in the gift, probably, is the complete proceedings of the American Pharmaceutical Association during the civil war period and the Jour nal of the Society of Chemical Industry, published in London. Other journals in eluded in the gift, some of them com plete files, are the Druggists Circular, the American Druggist, proceedings of the North Carolina Pharmaceutical Associa tion and of the North Carolina Medical Association, the American Soap Journal, the Pharmaceutical Era, Merck's Report, and the Southern Druggist. All the pro ceedings ami reports of the North Caro lina Agricultural Experiment Station, from its beginnings and of the Connecti cut experiment station are also included. The present gift, according to Dean Howell, goes a long way toward complet ing the journal side of the pharmacy li brary at the University, and affords a largely increased opportunity for valu- :: !- : c.; !i v rk. The Norih Carolina ( In!, of the Uni versity has received an uiioliicial mtanber- 1 ship on (iov. Hiikett's state reconstruc tion commission. One member of the club, I- V. Haggcit, of .amj-s'in Comity, will sit with the commission at all its meet ings, and other members will sit with the c inmittees of the cnniinission. The club, which for the past five years has made an. intensive economic and social study of North Carolina, is this year working out j a campus plan of state reconstruction, fol lowing closely the program of the state commission. Students will thus hare the advantage of sitting in with leaders of the state and at the same time they will carry on their own work in the club. At the end of the college year they will pub lish their dan in book form. The wind-up of the campaign for the (iraham Memorial Fund to erect a build ing at the University in memory of th late President, Edward Kidder Graham, will come November 26th, the day beforw Thanksgiving. At that time directors ef the campaign throughout the state, meet ing at Chapel Hill at a banquet given by the university, will submit their final re ports. Present also at the banquet -wiU lie the central committee from the trus tees, the state and the university faeultr. Indications point to the complete sucrea of the attempts to raise the 1150,000, ac cording to A. M. Coates, secretary of the fund.
