IT’STHAT HAND OF FELLOWSHIP, OF WELCOME, OF AMBITION AND DETERMINATION WHICH HAS DONE SO MUCH IN CONTRIBUTING TO THE WELFARE OF OUR FAIR TOWN. Think back a few years. Note the many public and private improvements that have been made since then as a direct result of local enterprise. What motive prompted them? Certainly, not selfishness. Those who contributed, did it for the purpose of adding to your convenience or pleasure. Yes, to create_ GOOD FELLOWSHIP and GOOD WILL. Of course, these improvements were not made without considerable sacrifice on the part of our business interests. Quite often they came forward with financial aid when they could least afford it. And yet, they did it with a generous heart and cheer ful smile. That’s the spirit that has made Shelby so progressive.

ASSOCIATION Cleveland County Home Builders. THE CLEVELAND STAR Cleveland's Leading Newspaper—Strictly Local. “May in y ,rTi ay in May.” Thp-Tontractors working on the Kings Mountain-Shelby highway say that: it “may be completed in May” or as it is hoped in ample .time to accommodate the heavy summer traf fic. Work is now being raided on out of Kings Mountain and about two miles of Tnrvia is already down. Now Cold Storage. The Ideal lee and Fuel company 13~ niitallini' a new cold .storage plant which will he used for storing eggs durinjf the summer to be held over until winter when the price is usually higher because of their scarcity. This new cold storage will have a capacity of twg car loads of eggs and should prove profitable to this new and • Vrowing plant. By and by space should be Abided for meats arid vege tables. Halting Building Lota. Mai Spangler and his associates in the Shelby Pudding company are having the hills graded down and the low places filled to the rear of Green Park between E. Marion stareet and Sumter street, making very de sirable building lots, close in, which will be offered for sale when the job is' completed. Sam aLttimore and his tenants with thirty' mulea arc doing the grading. Work was interrupted by the weather, but when the ’•■■rather permits, the work is rapid. The course of a small branch is being changed and new streets opened up. Boston Baked Canned. If Sheriff Logan kept a register of his voluntary winter guests the thing would probably read like points vis ited in a wild ramble of Kipling’s im agination. hjone of them have been from Kalamazoo, Mandalay or Pas quotank hut some of them have ram bled trt-ritory never infested by Wild cat, Lil and Lady Luck. The latest visitor at the county jail was a spoke from the Hub of the Universe, moan ing lie was a rambling youngster from Boston. The youth was seen loitering on the streets Saturday night and in reply to a query stated he was looinK for “a place to pile up”, lie was directed to tjie county jail where he kept a cell bunk warm for occupants expected later in the night that were toot so desirous of “piling up.” ' . A Sunday School Town. “Neighboring towns may take re ligious surveys but according to pop ulation Shelby as a Sunday school town has any of the others skinned considerably more than .the modern electric light has it on Diogenes’ lan tern." said a prominent Shelby man Monday. The latest step in the town’s^ Sunday school work is the Young Men’s class at the First Baptist church taught by O. Max Gardner. The class is limited to males between 18 and 30. Last Sunday was the first since organization and the first class roster shows 51 members, wTilcK of-, ficials of the class say it: only af starter. Dr. Ashley C^iappel, of Ashe ville recently referred to Clyde Hoey’s class at the Central Methodist church as “the best on either side of the Mississippi.” It’s very hard to find a boy or young man loafing on the streets during Sunday school hours with classes like these asking hia.at tention- . A tfJ.f! The Forthcoming Article. — The lon^r talked of article about Cleveland county, the most advanced agricultural county in North Carolina, will appear ip the Countty Gentle man the first week in Febraary. Many extra copies have been engaged by The Star, local real estate dealers and others who will distribute the copies far and wide, thus giving the county of Cleveland alt the publicity possi ble. With our record as a farming county, thi$ article should stimulate real estate and bring many inquiries from people living in other states who are most certainly looking for a better location. By clearing waste .land, building more tenant houses arid importing the highest type of South ern white farmers, we should have no difficulty in producing that 50,000* bales of cotton Max aGrdner spoke of at a recent meeting of the Kiwanis club. Introducing Our £age. Beginning with this issue, we start a series of 12 advertisements, under written by merchants and business men of Shelby, boosting “our town”. We consider these the best copy of a boosting nature that has ever ap peared in these columns. They empha size such important things as these— confidence in each other, the'value qf a smile, the importance of patroniz ing home merchants, the welcome to strangers and visitors, contentment, applying tbeholden Rule in business affairs, boating Shelby, Shelby’s prosperity, Shelby’s ambitions and her creed, etc. The merchants have generously underwritten this series of advertisements and it is our inten tion of carrying a column alongside that fits the intents and purposes of this page. The Star will appreciate any information about business changes, new enterprises, personal sketches and the like.
