TO BE ENTIRELY LOYAL
Outstand ing! In every community the
name Certain-teed stands conspicuously for
quality, good value, satisfaction, and fair dealing.
Certain-teed
Paints and Varnishes
get their quality from the
character of materials used in
their manufacture and from
the exactness with which
they are mixed.
The formula of ingredients
printed on the label shows
honestly and unmistakably
the real worth of the paint
Modern,up-to-datemachin-ery
eliminates the uncertain
tics of mixing by hand and
insures absolute conformity
to the experts' printed
formula.
The price of CERTAIN
TEED Paints and Varnish
es is based on the most -favorable
manufacturing,
distributing and selling
costs, plus a margin of profit

had to depend upon an ex
clusive paint organization
to market our paints and
varnishes.

teed togive satisfaction. This
guarantee is backed by the
enormous resources of the
Certain-teed Products Cor
poration. Whether you do your own
painting or employ a pro
fessional painter your in
terests will be best served if

A special from Birmingham. Ala.,
,ays: Reports that agents of the
Cornian Government are using Kim
Grove, a settle tMit near Greensboro,
N ('., an linail-iu r'ers for a campaign
in Incite South'rn negroes abaiiist
i ho Government of the United States
were i onlirmeil lv local Fedeia'l
(.fonts. The. activities, according t
the ollicials heriO have extended to tue
toh ! co( and cotton Welts of Georgia.
Alahama, the. Carolina, and parts of
Florida.
These efforts, however, have net
with little sympathy among the ne
proes, who h-ive pledged themselves
in large numbers to support the Pres
'lent and render whatever service
they could to it he Nation In case of
war. Several attempts to induce ne
groes to rise against the whites in
the Birmingham district have met
with no success, the ollicials declared
but in some parts of the black belts
cf Georgia and Alabama the Teutonic
agents have succeeded In appealing
to the negrores to an extent requiring
some precautions.
The alleged work of the Germans In
the South Is believed by the Feaeril
Hgents to be closely allied to the re
cent exodus from the cotton belts to
Northern industrial centers of large
bodies of negro laborers.
Rumors have reached here that
farmers in some agricultural uiaincrs
nave formed Ku Klux Klans to meot
possible uprisings or diaffeetion.
Government agents declared that in
formation reaching them lea to tnc
belief that, in the event war with Ger
many Is declared, efforts will be nnJe
b) German agents to induce neg-D?i
migrate to Mexico with a view to
crippling industries in the boutu
which depend on negro labor.
If. K. C. Bryant writing from Wash
ninon savs: There nas neen mvci
alK recently of German actlvuu
among the whites. The Department
f Justlcie would like to have direct
vidence of any such efforts on the
tit of Germans or o'hers. No !n.i-
.ation of disloyalty on the part of !h.?
negro has come to the government .f-
f-.cials, Quite the reverse has been :n
tlmated. 'Many' negroes have offered
their services ;to the nation.
It is believed, however, that Go r
r.ian agents have been busy in the
South with the hope of stirring up
the black nnan. Definite information
is what the government desires.
On M-'rch 15, a prominent citizen
of Pelham, wrote to Senator Overman
as follows: "Please allow me to sug
gest that the Southern negro be thor
oughly investigated, by secret service
n. en, as to how they are being influ
enced by Germ in spies, and to' what
effect German intrigue and plots are
having upon them. You are aware,
that the negroes, through their lodges,
churches and preachers, are the best
organized race in the United States.
Under premeditated arrangements,
they could arise and do much harm
at night while the white rural citizens
ire asleep.aa iai party , of them aid
many years ago.
"To detect and nip in the bud these
plots by Germans among the negroes,
would be a great protection to the
Southern white people.
"The distribution of rifles and am
munition to the rural white people of
the South would be another way to be
prepared for any plot which may be
instigate!. Doubtless the negroes are
delng arcttd by !he German spies and
i.vniuu.thlzers. Perhaps the depart
ment has taken steps in this direction
which is Indeed a wise move."
Tho Department of Justice is look
i g Into this and like suggestions.
The New York Tribune prln'ed a
'ory from North Carolina on the ac
tivities of Germans among negro resi
ilnnts there.
The Negro Wanted At North
The story that planters In this coun
ly are organizing along Klu Klux
Klin lines, printed by the New York
Tribune and then by the Associated
I'ress, Is not rue. The so-called Ger
man agents are more likely labor
agents from the North down here at-
knipting to get the negro frlgh'ened
Mid hustle him off to the North. The
North is sadly in need of help. The
foreign Li borer is not much in evi
dence as he was before the war, and
making heavy bids for the negro. In
thn whole North has been for months
n aking heavy bids for the negro In
fact, thousands of them have been be-
"iiiled by northern labor agents and
from some districts farm help Is a.'
rrady scarce because of the exodus.
The talk about the farmer organiz
ing to get rid of the negro Is to laugh".
What the farmer wants is to help the
negro. Only the other day w j prln'ed
: story from Atlanta which told that
t lie labor problem, because of the ex
odus of so many negroes, was a very
serious so-called, ;were doubtless Nor
ttern labor agents In disguise, and
It Is time the white men of Guilford
county, instead of allowing stories to
obtain that they were going to or
ganize the Ku Klux Klan to run the
negro out, were getting busy and or
ganizing something to run the kbor
agents from the North out.
We hive Investigated these no-o
t lories and will no;; believe it true that
German spies have done any work
until we are shown more proof th.n Is
now obtainable. We do not credit the
A P. story which Birmingham agents
confirm. We are rather inclined to
believe' the northern labor agents bent
on securing help from the South ae
the ones who have set in motion the
ufory which has been wildly exagger
a'ed. ;
The white imen of Guilford can easi
ly determine the truth or the falsity
of the story, and it is time to invite
Ibe colored man out to some pitriodc
:ietings. and this would finally settle
the -.matter. Greensboro Record.
TOBACCO MANUFACTURED
DURING FEBRUARY, 1917
Tobacco manufactured during Feb
ruary 1917 showed an Improvement
over tho corresponding month last
year, with the exception of snuff,
which showed a loss of 451,95) pounds
over February, 1916. Small cigars
continue to show Increases, while cig
arettes show an increase of almost
t00,0iii),000 over the same month last
year. Smoking and chewing tobacco
with cigars and cheroots, all show big sign of trouble, will keep the little cha
guns, says the estern Tobacco Jour
nal.
These gains, when taking into con
alceratlon the freight embargo in vir
ious parts of the country during the
month of February, are very favorable
;nd certainly would have been larger
nan the manufacturer not been ham
r.cred by the freight congestion The
Journal adds:
The cigarette, which again shows
i he largest increase, is being made the
subject of much legislation, and It is
well that the tobacco interests are
beginning to pay more attention to
this imenace. In fact it is the opinion
oi many that the reason why the pro
posed Chamberlain military bill at
Washington is because of the objec
tion of cigarettes
Manufacturers of cigars, g nerally,
rre asking and getting more money
for their product. Very few of the
manufacturers raised their prices un
til they were actually forced to thru
tne increased cost In the manufacture
of cigars not only In the price of cigar
material, but in labor, boxes, paper,
twine and everything else that is
connected with the cigar industry.
During the month of February, 1917
the tax collected orf-manufacttured
tobacco products amounted to $7,995,-
099.98, an increase of $1,276,980.12 as
compare. with the collactions for Feb
ruary 1916.

The following from the Belmont,
New York, dispatch, shows that Rev.
Xrthur Abernethy's sermons are wide
ly read. Rev. W. E. Aberriethy of
Reidsville is a brbther of Arthur Ar
tnur so well known In the South and
In Grcnsboro:
f Perhatps the title of "the most pop
ular and widely known preacher in
the world" does not rightly belong
to Rev. Billy Sunday of tabernacle
fame, as Is generally thought, and
who knows but that ar Belmonter, in
the person of the Rev. A. T. Abernethy
of the M. E. church, has more of a
rail on the title than the ex-ball player.
Several years ago and before join
ing the ministry, Dr. Abernethy w
en' editorial writer on metropolitan
daily and it was at the time of his
becoming a pastor that his newspaper
friends conceived the ideri of extend
ing his field by syndicating his weekly
rermons.
The papers now using Dr. Aberne
thy's sermons have an aggregate cir
culation of over' six imlllion copies
weekly and perhaps half as many
again readers. When this vast num
ber is taken into consideration, one
can readily see that Dr. Abernethy's
Dernions reach more people weekly
than Rev. Billy Sunday reaches In a
