Smooth Fake.
We are informed that last
week a woman claiming to be
deaf and dumb
community for
"worked" this
subscriptions,
saying she wished to buy or
build her a home. She had no
credentials with her but said
she had them in her gripat the
place where she stopped. She
gave as reference a minister in
Hillsboro and an interested
citizen wrote the alleged minis
ter, also a businesshouse of
Hillsboro and while he receiveed
no reply from the alleged minis
ter, the business house writes
that there is no such party there.
It seems she is a fake pure and
simple and has been quite suc
cessful in raising funds judging
from the list of subscriptions
she displayed.
Advertising Free.
We want every business man
in Lenoir, in fact everybody
who reads The News, to test the
value of its advertising space.
In order for them to do this we
will insert a four line reader,
two times in the paper for any
person or firm in Caldwell coun
ty, absolutely free. Tin; copy
must be plainly written dated
and signed with proper address
of the party advertising. You
may advertise anything you
have for sale from a bound pup
to a house and farm, but the ad
vertisement must be for some
genuine article and no fake fool
ishness. We reserve the right
to reject any advertising that
we do not consider worthy or
appropriate. Now this offer is
open to everybody in the county
and we hope our readers will
take advantage of it and see the
value of the paper as an adver
tising medium. This offer will
only be held open a short time.
