Real Estate
Dear Soldier "Buddies:"
You are receiving your "adjust
ed service certificates" (not bon
us). We earned this at $2.00 per
day in the U. S. and at $2.50 per
day overseas.
At the time we were receiving
SI.OO per day in camp or $1.25
per day overseas, our playmates
and friends were working at the
camps for from SIO.OO to $15.00
per day, so you easily see this is
still only part of the amount paid
for, (in lots of cases boys that
were not physically fit for army
service. (So do not think of your
bonds as a bonus or as "come
easy" and "go easy" money; but
consider and see if you can make
this your first payment on a
home or if you have a home and
want a better one spend it that
way. The old saying is very true,
viz: "The dearest place on earth
is our home next to Heaven." We
know this is not true in every
case, but it should be true if we
as man and wife do as we should.
I have had more than 20 years
experience in both building and
real estate business and know I
can be of some service to many
of you If interested in these lines.
Do not fail to call and see me if
you need either a home or your
own remodeled.
We still have some real values
in both small farms and city
property. Come Ttrjyid Ma me.

GEORGE'S PUCE
ROBBED SUNDAY
Odell Payne in Yad
kinville Jail in Lieu
Of Bond
Odell Payne, about 25, of Jones
ville, is in jail at Yadkinville in
default of SSOO bond on a charge
of entering George's Place, a fill
ing station located in Jonesville
at the south end of the new
bridge, and stealing two slot ma
chines. Payne is also alleged to
have stolen an automobile be
longing to Marshall Hemric, pro
prietor of the filling station, and
to have wrecked it.
Discovery of the robbery was
made Monday morning, and the
wrecked automobile was found on
Elk Spur street where it had been
driven from the road and through
a fence.
It was said Payne admitted
robbing the place, and that after
bursting the slot machines, which
were thrown from the bridge in
to the Yadkin river, he attempt
ed a getaway in the stolen car.
After wrecking it, however, he re
turned and confessed, giving back
the money alleged to have been
taken from the slot machines, it
was said.
Hemric and another man were
sleeping in the filling station at
the time it was entered and rob
bed, thus making Payne liable to
a charge of first degree burglary,
which is a capital offense. How
ever, no such charge has been
preferred, it is understood.
State Secretary
Tells Kiwanians
Of Opportunity
(Continued from front page)
SIOO,OOO building can be secured,
it will contain a full size gymna
sium, an excellent swimming
pool, health and social rooms, and
other departments for both sexes,
he said, also space to be used as
a meeting place for community
affairs.
Mr. Chatham has also offered
to connect such a building with
the electrical and heating plants
of the Chatham Manufacturing
company here, Mr. Wilson said.
It was further stated that there
are a number of towns with pop
ulations of around 12,000 which
are anxious to secure a Y. M. C.
A. building but are unable to fi
nance it. However, due to the
fact that Elkin, even with a much
smaller population, has a manu
facturing plant with funds and a
management with a heart, the
town has the finest opportunity
to secure such a building of
any other town within the speak
er's knowledge.
L. Q. Meed, president of the
club, urged the Kiwanians to take
the matter under serious consid
eration and to see what can be
done. A club committee to further
the matter is to be appointed
within a few days.
Mr. Wilson was introduced by
Kiwanian Errol Hayes, who acted
as program chairman.
Large Sum Loaned
In Surry County
(Continued from front page)
repaid this year, while from two
to three years is allowed for re
payment of livestock loans. In
some of the cases the borrowers
are expected to be able to repay
the loans in one year.
Farmers to whom loans are
made conduct their farms upon
1 the planned cropping and farm
production system worked out for
this vicinity by the farm experts
under supervision of the super
visor and advisory committee in
order to insure proper repayment
of the loans and profitable farm
ing for the small-scale farmer in
normal years, Mr. Harrison stat
ed in his explanation of the ru
ral resettlement program as it
has been applied to Surry county.
The live-at-home idea is stress
ed by the resettlement bureau,
which includes in its plan for
farm operation a method for pro
ducing necessities of life, as far
as this is possible.
The farm system worked out
for the smaller planters in this
country who had been unable to
make their farms pay because of
the bad crop years, droughts, low
prices and other reasons includes
a balanced cropping plan with
provision for feed and food crops,
which had formerly been very
much neglected by the farmers.
The live-at-home plan, worked
out in conjunction with the main
farm system and supervised by
Mrs. Sara A. Hough, provides for
an adeqUate amount of food,
clothing and equipment for the
home. Stress is placed upon suf
ficient garden space, hogs for
Bleat, poultry and jcows.
One of the most* important di
visions of the program, it seems
and the one upon which its suc
cess hinges, is that the supervis
ors endeavor to educate the far
mers in regard to their own 3itua-
Ittan and to teach them that their
primary aim should, be toward
making themselves self-sustaining
in regard to food, clothing and
shelter by handling their farms
in the proper manner. The mat
ter of foodstuffs is stressed In
stead of cash crops, which had
formerly occupied much of the
farmers' time and caused the fi
nancial failure of many when
prices dropped during the depres
sion.

office at Dobson within the next

working sheets before the recent
changes were made in the pro

mixed crop of wheat and lespede
za to count as one half soil con

peas or soy beans wili count as
one half soil conserving, and will

Mr. Crawford also stated that
he expected the 1935 tobacco
checks to be in within the next
two or three weeks.
State Democrats
Pledge Votes To
Pres. Roosevelt
(Continued from front page)
Almost every reference to
Roosevelt and Ehringhaus brought
cheers from the more than 3,500
persons who sat through most of
the convention.
Business was disposed of with
dispatch after the keynote address
but the convention had to wait
two hours then on the platform
committee's report and hundreds
of delegates left the hall.
Immediately after the conven
tion adjourned the delegates to
the national convention, acting
on instructions, named A. D.

hany on the rule committee and

VETERANS! Spend
Your Bonus Wisely!
When the Bonus Bill was passed by Congress, we, like
iN# yl thousands of other merchants the country over, were of the
opinion that payment of the bonus would serve to stimu
l&te business by releasing millions of dollars into the chan
"-*-** nels of trade.
AMA w /Jci\ However, now that Veterans are receiving their bonus bonds
2gVw\ 1 from the government, we want to urge all Veterans to spend
~/V( MQ &'&/ their bonus money wisely.
* |[ Without a doubt, since payment of the bonus was author
~ lzed by Congress, more schemes have been cooked up to re
lieve the veterans of their money than we have space to tell. But you will find no
schemes advertised by reputable merchants.
As furniture dealers, we are not in business altogether for our health. We need busi
ness! to exist. But we do not need it bad enough to start shouting for the Veterans to
spend their entire bonus for furniture and furniture alone. Rather, we counsel you
to spend your bonus wisely.
However, if by chance you are "in the market for new furniture, naturally we hope
you will favor us with your patronage. We are ready and willing to serve you in any
way possible ... to aid you in selecting the furniture you desire and in making ev
ery dollar go as far as possible. But we do not believe in trying to high pressure you
into buying just because we know you have money in your pocket.
It's not our way of doing business.
