THE CLEVELAND STAR, SIIELBY, N. C. FRIDAY, SEPT. 2, 1921 ELLIOTT REUNION HAS CROW D OF 750 PEOPLE Great Crowd at This Annual Af fairEnough Feed for 200 More People F'l'tor Star: The annual Elliott re union is a thing of the past, the n-.'twd was large and orderly; and human provender was in abundance. Among the 750 assembled, were representatives from Georgia, Virgin ia, South Carolina; as well as delega tions from Casar, Lattimore, Ruther- fordton, Ellenboro, Shelby, and else . . where. Four ministers were present, with locust preachers galore, and one ed itor came, hollow-eyed and woe-be gop: but went away with a new song Jn his mouth. Four of teaching fac ulty were in evidence from the best high school in Western North Caro--Jinar-and-the-ame-felt-thanrW4S food to be there. While this is known to profane his tory ai "Tha Elliott Re-Union," any. body is an Elliott that comes and con forms to usages thereof. The weath er was propitious; and ever since this assembly was organized the weather has been ideal. This was about the twelfth of the series; and nobody has ever, been rude or boisterous, and if anyone left hungry or dissatisfied it was his own fault. At least enough eatables were car ried home to feed 200 more people; for this is not a covetous nor niggard ly community. When white people have been fed to repletion, a goodly bunch of the old ex-slaves are feast ed. We are trying to banish, by an object lesson, the niggardly practice that prevails in some dark corners, of scattering around in the forest; in- AMERICAN METHODISM HAS GAINED MILLION MEMBERS Nashville, Tenn., Aug. 29.

Herbert Hoover Warns the Public NO PRIORITIES WILL BE ISSUED THIS WINTER URGES THE PURCHASE OF STORAGE COAL WITHOUT DELAY. (REPRINT FROM THE WASHINGTON POST.) WASHINGTON, July 18. Secretary Hoover has advised the country to buy its winter coal supply instead of waiting for possible lower prices. , ' "I am convinced," said Mr-Hoover's letter made public here today, "that due to, the general depression, the price of . bituminous coal at the. mines is not too high at the present , time. If there should be a recovery of business activities in the autumn, taken in conjunction with the large increase in percentage of disabled cars, and the inability of the railways to finance their railroads, there is possibility of a most serious - condition as concerns coal production. "I .can not but feel that the Interstate Commerce Cora mission, in the' fact of warnings they have sent out in this connection, would not be disposed to give priority in such an event."

Weathers of San Anton io, Tex., was a visitor in Lincolnton Friday, guest in the home of his sis ter, Mrs. J. L. Putnam on Congress street. Talking about Texas he got on the subject of artesian wells, from which his city gets a supply of wat er. Out there the artesian wells flow with such force that the water is forced direct from the wells through pipes into the standpipe, there being no pumping problem to solve. No doubt this fact would interest a city alderman of bur town who has the job of keeping the pumps going to sup ply enough water for a growing' town. ; , Co-Operative rnarketing has kept California , growers',, prosperous through the present depression, which almost broke the rest of the country and hit the South with special force, adv.
