FOREST CITY—One of the
most ancient of film bam games
was pulled on. a Sandy Mush Ne
gro in Forest City Tuesday after
noon, and he was victimised of
$106, says Chief of Police Pam
Kennedy.
Arthur brooks, Sandy Run com
irfunity farmer, came to town a
bout noon to cash a check for
$106 to obtain funds for paying
off a group of cotton pickers.
AS he left a bank, another Ne
gro engaged him in conversation,
saying he was a farmer and talk
ed at length about farm prices.
While standing there they ob
served another Negro, just a short
distance away, reach down and
pick up a billfold.
The second Negro called Brooks
attention to this and demanded
that the third man share his find
with them. He said there was
$2,100 in the billfold, including
a large check.
He presumably left for a mo
ment to get the check cashed.
He then, demanded that Brooks
and his new-found friend put up
sufficient cash as evidence of
good faith, since the “hot mon
ey” should not be spent for a
bout 30 days.
They then agreed to meet at
another place and divide the
money, after Brooks had posted
his $106 as evidence of good
Going to the spot Brooks could
not locate the film-flam artists and !
he is out $106. Police have no !
clue as to the guilty parties. j
PAINTED REDSTART
©1954 National Wildlife Federation
PAINTED REDSTART
The amateur who is interested
in gaily colored warblers is apt to I
reach the conclusion that the fe
males of this group are less bril- j
liantly colored than the males. J
Those who know the ordinary red- |
start may place greater reliance '
ir. this because of the marked I
differences in the coloration of
males and females. However, in j
the case of the Painted Redstart
both sexes appear to be identical,
and it is also worthy of note that
the young birds are colored much
like th eadults from the time they
have their first full plumage.
The birds are colored in strik
ing contrasts of brilliant red on
the lower breast, jet black on the
head, throat, back, center of the
ta:’ and over much of the wings.
Patches of clear white appeal on \
angles of the wings, on the bor- l
ders of the tail and on the belly. j
It is not likely that anyone know
ing these characteristics would
fail in the identification of this j
bird. I
The Painted Redstart occurs in |
only a limited area of the T'nited j
States along the Mexican border j
within Arizona, New Mexico and;
Texas; Since they are primarily j
residents of Mexico anil Central
America, the birds seen within j
mr country are living at the ,
north to ,1 edge of the range. They i
are summer residents, occurring1
for the most, part in pine and i
cedar country at high elevations. ;
In the winter they migrate south- j
ward from the breeding ranges !
within the T'nited States';
It is surprising that a bird as j
beautiful and ns conspicuously j
colored as this one would tend to ;
make itself even more Conspicuous ]
by its actions. One assumes that j
vanity is frequently closely asso
ciated with beauty and this might
account for the ’‘show off’’ be
havior of the Painted Redstart.
Such an assumption of course
would be dangerous and we do
not make it seriously. But these ;
birds do have a habit of flashing j
their colors a= they go about their
work., Rome have suggested that
their behavior, a-side from this, :s
somewhat, like that of the Brown
Creeper of affecting vani‘y.
The nest is sometimes built on
the gorund along steep doping
canyons where it is well hidden
by overhanging grasses. At other
times a nest will be found in a
shrub as much as 10 feet above
the ground. It is usually bulky
and made of plant materials. As
a rule there as four eggs. These
j are creamy white with chestnut or
russet markings. Young birds
may assume their full .juvenile
[ plummage early with juvenile
molt sometimes beginning in June
and lasting until October.
One of the most remarkable
notes on the Painted Redstart
stems from the discovery of one
of the birds at Marblehead Neck,
Massachusetts i n mid-October
1947. The identification was
made by authorities whose integ
rity and knowledge of birds can
not be questioned. How the
bird got so far from its usual
range is a question that has
“stumped the experts.”
The National Wildlife Federa
tion is pleased to give you this de
scription of a bird which is worthy
of protection.—(E» Laurence Pal

OBITUARY
Monday, October 31, 1955 the
soul of Catherine Bess Towery
was called from its earthly home
to its. eternal home. She had
been in declining health for a
number of years and critically ill
for the past four weeks.
Mrs. Towery was the daughter
of the late Jacob and Sara Lackey
Bess. She was born on June 17,
1870, her age being 85 years, four
months and 17 days. In early
girlhood she gave her heart to
Christ and became a member of
Bess Chapel Methodist Church
where she remained a faithful and
loyal member until the end.
On August 8, 1897, she was
united in marriage with J. C.
Towery who passed away in 1927.
Their home was blessed with
seven children: Bert Towery of
Vale, Route 1, Mrs. Sam Howell
and ‘Mrs. Marshall Heavner of
Route 1, Cherryville and John and
Earl Towery of the home. Two
children passed away in infancy.
Besides the named children, she
leaves to mourn her going 12
grandchildren and 10 great-grand
children, and one sister, Mrs.
Monroe Martin, Lawndale, Route
2, and two brothers. Charlie and
Bert Bess of Route 1, Cherryville,
and a number of nieces and
nephews and a host of other sor
rowing relatives and friends. Two
brothers, Gus and Free Bess pass
ed away recently.
She lived a quiet, gentle life,
the entirety of it being spent in
this cmomiinity. She wp always
ready to lend a helping hand
when needed. She was a sincere
Christian woman, and practical
what she believed. She was a
devoted wife, a loving mother and
grandmother and a good neighbor.
One of her chief interests was
that of making a good home for
her husband and children to whom
she was deeply devoted. She
sought to instill into the lives of
her children Christian principles
which was the underlying source
of her strength. Her children
rise up and call her blessed and
the community, says well done.
She always visited the sick and
lonely and had a word of encour
agement for them. She will be
greatly missed by her immediate
family and friends wno were
closely associated with her. But
we bow iin humble submission to
the Will of the Father and say
“Thy Will Be Done.”
Sunset an evening star,
An<I one clear call for me
And may there be no moaning at'
th bar.
When I put out to sea.

THE CHILDREN
HOYLES’ CORNER
Now the baselball season’s over
And Mr. Charlie Hoyle is lost.
He can’t fro to the ball park
And lean agianst his post;
He misses Ben's good hot dogs
And the music and the noise.'
The soda pop and peanuts,
And American Legion boys.
He looks so sad and lonely.
He can’t think of anything.
I know he just aits dreaming
Of the coming of the spring.
When the robins start to hopping
And the Bob White starts to
call
And Norman Harris (hollers
“Come on byiys, let’s play ball.”
He doesn't care for football
And bowling's not his game.
He always shuns a golf course
Tt really is a shame.
Now he could take up fishing
And go out in the bay.
Then sit around and tell about
The ones that got away.
But somehow that don’t suit
him.
| He is not that kind of man.
But there’s one thing we all know.
| He is a baseball fan.
I And when he seeks his heavenly
home
Beyond the mountains tall.
If you should happen to be there.
I’m sure you’d hear him call
Put down those harps, round
Up the hoys, let’s have a game
of ball.
Mrs. Madeliene Hoyle,
Cherryville, N. C.
