Wood's corner Elkin # Kiwanian HOT DOGS With the automobiles killing more people each year than were killed during the War, it be hooves every one interested in the safety of human life in gen eral and of his own family in par ticular, to see the places where some of this slaughter can be avoided. The hot dog, the ice cream cone, the vegetable stand and . the gas station owners are res ponsible for a portion of this loss of life, and highway regulations should be bo framed as to avoid this particular menace. Many of these roadside stands are so close to the edge of the highway that when cars stop to patronize them, they are still on, or partially on the highways. Cars on that side of the highway ■ must turn out into the wrong side _ of the road in passing, and many of the accidents due to this me nace are the most deadly kind— the headon collision. Such stands should be com pelled to locate far enough back from the highway proper to give ample parking space for automo biles which stop to patronize them. These stands are unsight ly enough without being an added menace to the general hazard of cross country driving. On Sundays and holidays, such stands are frequent causes of traffic jams, dozens of cars be ing held up by oncoming traffic while one hungry motorist stops to get a mustard plastered hot dog, or while some child is hu-i mored with an ice cream cone. The remedy is so simple and the stands built at such small ex pense, that highway commission ers would do well to consider carefully this way of avoiding a menace to the life of every pass ing motorist. Public safety and public con venience demand that parked cars be parked off the highway. The people who profit by their stop ping should be the ones to ar range for them to be able to get out of the way of other motor ists who want to proceed. K MEMBERSHIP DEVELOPMENT At one of the district conven tions this fall, it developed that one of the oldest clubs In the United States had practically doubled its membership without in the least lowering its member ship standards, without in any sense putting on a drive, and without doing anything else sen sational. To bring the membership of any club back to its highest point, or even higher, it is not neces sary to mßke any stir outside of the club. The result 1b attained by real work inside of the club. It is a fact not to be gainsaid that if every Kiwanian now be longing to the organization would make a sincere effort, the mem bership of Kiwanis could be doubled in one month. There is no Kiwanian now in the organization who could not into his club one desirable member. The difficulty lies not in finding worthy raen who would make good Kiwanians, but in in spiring the men who are now Ki wanians to a realization of the need of building up the club to its best working strength.

This 12th day of December, 1932. ALEX CHATHAM, Jr., 1-12 Trustee. NOTICE By virtue of the power contained In a deed of trust executed by D. R. Burch to the undersigned trustee to secure a debt to P. R. Linville there- ELKIN, N. C. I membership to build up the club. 5! The big point is selecting for this important task a man who can *! inspire and who will be followed . ( by the membership. -1 In every city where a Kiwanis '■club functions there are good J men who need the town loyalty t inspired by Kiwanis. In every [ town are young men who would - esteem Kiwanis membership a 1 recognition by the leading men of 1 the town. These men can be had ! if approached in the right way by the right person. ' No Kiwanis club has so far for gotten the dignity and the stand ing of the organization as to stage anything which takes on the na ture of a membership drive. Such a move would be more hurtful than helpful. But a careful sur- I vey of the business and profes sional men of any town will show | Kiwanis material of the highest type which needs only approach by the proper person to be brought into the club, to the bene fit of the man himself, the organ ization and the town. K EDUCATING AGAINST ITINERANTS "Madam, we can sell you these much more cheaply than any lo cal merchant. We have no ex pensive store rent to pay, we do no advertising in the daily pa pers, we have no big overhead for trucks and deliveries, so we can sell you at least twenty-five per |cent cheaper than the stores down town." This is the argument of the itinerant salesman at the front door. Membership of Kiwanis are merchants and manufacturers and business men of the home town. There is no better way to edu cate the housewife against this propaganda than to put on an en tertainment at a Ladies' Night to educate against such salesmen. The very argument of the salesman is the best argument against them. If all business were done on the house-to-house plan, no stores would be rented, no advertising bought in local pa pers, no tax money collected to pay policemen, firemen, garbage collectors, street sweepers, pav ing. city lighting, and all the oth er advantages of a properly con ducted city government. Such salesmen should be asked how much their firms contribute to the local tax budget, and how much they pay toward the sup port of the free schools in which our children are To put on a playlet in which the salesman tries to sell a house wife who asks him these and other pertinent questions, is to educate the wives of Kiwanians against the kind of buying which undermines the local merchant and materially lowers the per capita wealth of a town by send ing out of it thousands of dollars which should be spent with local merchants and manufacturers. Money spent iu the home town Is convenient money which the spender may get back at an early date. Money Bent out of town is distaat money, unlikely ever to get back into local circulation.
