THIS AND THAT
In the not so distant past we saw a local man appear in
a hearing before Magistrate J. L. Hall as prosecuting witness
in a case where a young man was up for speeding and reck
less driving. This local man was the one who swore out the
warrant.
Fifteen minutes ago we saw this same man drive his car
through the street intersection at the Turner Drug Company
corner at a speed of at least 40 miles an hour, and still pick-
ing up. This reckless act brought,
the comment: "This town has
some of the craziest drivers in it
I've ever seen!" from a bystander
who was standing on the side
walk.
We didn't circulate around the
streets much election night, but
from where we were it appeared
to be the quietest election night
we ever saw. Didn't a single
drunk show up in our sector,
which, to say the least, was a
surprise to us.
Now that election is over and
the returns are in, we can get
back to worrying about the war

When we were out at Klondike
Farm the other week the ques
tion of why Klondike Nira, the
cow who died at Little America,
was named "Nira," arose. Mr.
Cooley didn't know, and we
couldn't remember. But since
that time, we have remembered.
Klondike Nira started on her trip
southward at about the time of
the NIRA —National Industrial
Recovery Act. Thus the cow was
dubbed NIRA, although these
initials were later shortened in
popular usage to NRA. If we are
not mistaken, the cow's name was
originally Klondike Carterette.
Always first to jump in and
lend a helping hand following
disaster is the American Red
Cross. Those of you who have
joined—or who will be asked to
join—are really contributing your
money to a worthwhile organiza
tion when you pin the little but
ton upon your dress or lapel,, or
attach the Red Cross sticker to
your door or window.
The Red Cross never asks your
politics, your church affiliations
or if you have water on the knee,
if you should be unfortunate
enough to wind up in the middle
THE ELKIN TRIBUNE, ELKIN, NORTH CAROLINA
of a bad fix. This organization
jumps ip with rolled up sleeves
and leaves question asking to
others.
Fortunately, Elkin has never
had to call on the Red Cross for
relief in a disaster. But North
Wilkesboro, following the flood of
not so long ago, knows what the
Red Cross means, and knows that
it was functioning to aid the
many who were left helpless and
homeless even before the muddy
waters of the Yadkin had gotten
back in its banks.
Maybe the local roll call will be
over before you read this. If it
is—and you didn't receive an op
portunity to join—call up Mrs. A.
O. Bryan, who is in charge of the
drive. If it isn't, do your part in
aiding the work of this greatest
of all humanitarian organiza
tions.
No one who knows will tell us
what company is going to occupy
the new building being erected
next to P. A. Brendle & Son on
East Main street. But if it proves
to be a large department store,
don't be surprised. Or so we get
it on the grape vine.
As we understand it, all you
fellows but. two, who registered
several weeks ago and have fig
ured out your order number from
lists publisMed following the na
tional lottery a t Washington,
have the wrong lottery number
insofar as concerns you in this
county. At this writing we don't
know whether The Tribune is go
ing to get the official list in time
to publish in this issue or not,
but as it was explained to us, no
registrant in this draft area will
have an order number larger
than the total number of reg
istrants for this section. The lo
cal draft board has taken the
master list, sent from Washing
ton, and marked off all names
except the men under its own
jurisdiction. These men will be
given order numbers beginning
at No. 1 and continuing numeri
cally on through the list. The
highest number will not exceed
2,300-odd.
Our serial number was No. 38.
No. 38 was drawn from the fish
bowl at Washington in capsule
No. 6,102. But that won't be our
correct order number, as we at
first believed. Just what it will
be we don't know at this writing,
but just as soon as the list is
available, The Tribune is going to
print it, the list to contain the
order number, serial number and
name of the registrant. Maybe
the address, too. Maybe a part
of the names will appear in this
issue. It all depends on when the
list is turned over to us and how
much time we will have to set the
tremendous amount of type nec
essary to print it.
Of course we don't expect any
of you to understand what we've
written about the numbers, but
anyway, it sure was good to fill
up space.

Be Quick To Treat
Bronchitis
Chronic bronchitis may develop if
your cough, chest cold, or acute bron
chitis is not treated and you cannot
afford to take a chance with any medi
cine less potent than Creomulsion
which goes right to the seat of the
trouble to help loosen and expel germ
laden phlegm and aid nature to
soothe and heal raw, tender, inflamed
bronchial mucous membranes.
Creomulsion blends beechwood
creosote by special process with other
time tested medicines for coughs.
It contains no narcotics.
No matter how many medicines
you have tried, tell your druggist to
sell you a bottle of Creomulsion with
the understanding you must like the
way it quickly allays the cough, per
mitting rest and sleep, or you are to
have your money back. (Adv.)
