Mark well of Little Rock resigned it is announc ed. Miss Gill would neither affirm nor j deny the announcemet :, while Mrs. I Markwell declined to give any rea son for her announce 1 resignation. She had been rational commander, with national headjuartrrs there, since organization of the society last June. No statement regarding tb-> wo- : men’s order was forthcoming from i leaders of the knights of the Ku klux j klan. At the time of the organization; of the klan it was announced that the . t rior had the support of'the knights the Ku Klux klan although it was to he an organization of women and managed strictly by women. The or ganization of the women of the klan was regarded last summer as on phase of the antagonism between the factions of the Ku Klux klan headed sportively by Hiram \V. Evans im perial wizard, and William J. Sim mons former emperor of the order, recently ousted. Simmons it was said fostered another women’s society al Ued with the klan, the Kamelia.

Adv c Another Reason Why — Buick Cushions Are Comfortable On All Roads The cushions on Buick open cars are supported on doub e-deck springs. The upper springs, light and easy acting, smooth out slight road irregularities, while the larger and stronger lowers absorb the bumps that cause the ordi nary seat to “strike bottom”. Two pads of curled hair between springs and French plaited upholstery give thpt final softness and assure the purchaser a cushion that will stand up. When better automobiles are built Buick, will build them E-J1-15-NP THOMPSON-LACKEY CO.

That the deaf can hear over the ra dia has local confirmation in the case of Miss Moselle Rhyne, 11-year-oln daughter of Mr. YV. L. Rhyne, of Stony Point. The child has been deaf since birth and is at present at the state institution for the deaf at Mor ganton. While she was at home for the Christmas holiday, her father had a radio set installed. Mr, J. E. Gaither, representing a local clectri _cal firm, was in charge of the in^tal lation. The little girl sat on her father’s knee, an interested observer a? Mr. Gaither tuned in the instrument. By caprice Mr. Fhyne placed the reeeiv ers over his daughter’s ears. Knowing her affliction, Mr. Gaither gave her a sympathetic glance of interest as she sat there playing make-believe. But he gave her more than a glance, for thorn was „ light in her eves which told him plainly that something won derful was taking place. His hands deserted the tuning key and dropped to his sides in the pres ence of an incomparable joy. In the ever-brightening glow of her child’s eyes was reVealed the conquest of man over the drear and lonely steppes of silence, the thrilling spectacle of self-willed and elusive natural forces curbed and bridled by men and made j to minister to an imperfect human- j ity. ijhe needed no longer to play ’ -nnVe-believe. For the rest of her holiday the ra d'o was her inseparable companion. Mr. Rhyne told one of the principals at Morganton of his discovery when he brought his daughter hack to the school at the end of the holiday. Un ■*Me to believe it, the principal expe rimented with a set of receivers and a transmitter, no radio setTieing avail' able. The receivers were placed on her ears and the principal talked into !hc transmitter. MozClle heard dis tinctly, for all her responses were in telligent. The fact that she was unable to dear the radio through the amplifier proves that the ear receivers are res ponsible. Through the receivers dif fusion of sound is checked arid the sound waves strike the car with! »nough force to penetrate the usual j »arricr of deafness. Bernstorff Defends Woodrow Wilson Count von BernstorfT, former Ger man ambassador to the United States, has raised his voice as one of the few defenders in Germany of the late Woodrow Wilson. In the Weekly Deutsche Einheit, von Bernstorff de fends Mr. Wilson against almost uni versal charges by the Germans of a betrayal of Germany, and also calls the German public’s attention to the untruth of the generally accepted statement that Germany laid down arms in the world war through belief ;n President Wilson’s “fourteen points”. HOW BIG A BUSINEESS IS THE CHICKEN BUSINESS? < , There are 300,000 chickens in the United States which an., nually produce 1,656,000,000 dozen eggs. Their sale for otic year brought $1,048,030,000. This was 39 per cent of the total value of all live stack pro- ' ducts. So important a source of income we believe warrants the attention of every farm er. We are always glad to give it our best cooperation.. CLEVELAND BANK & TRUST CO., Shelby, N. C. “The Bank of Strength and Service.” MRS. FARMER WE INVITE YOUR ACCOUNT On nearly every farm we find Mr. Farmer taking the responsibility for raising and marketing the field crops, and Mrs. Farmer earning a good share of the total income through the sale of chickens, butter and eggs. Of course Mr. Farmers has a banking connection- -it’s as necessary as the most import an^iece of farm machinery. Farmer Needs a bank account, too—a checking ac count as an aid to better busi new, and a savings account to make that business contribute to her independence. Mrs. Farmer—we particu larly invite your account. CLEVELAND BANK & TRUST CO., Shelby, N.

SUSPEND EXCAVATIONS IN TOMB OF OLI) KING TUT The dispute between the Egyptian roverpmept and Howard Carter over he conduct of the work on Tutaekha nens tomb, say a Cairo dispatch, was suddenly terminated Tuesday by a nirLte»-:al order cancelling the li :ense of Countess Carnarvon, under A'hich Mr. Carter was operating. It is relieved here fliat this action ends Mr. Carter’s connection with these most vonderful of all Egyptian archeolo gical discoveries, unless as has been intimated, there is recourse to legal procedure. The ministerial order after tracing recent events which already have been cabled in detail, describe* Mr. Carters action in closing the tomb jnd abandoning the work as a grave infraction of fhe obligations assumed by him. Moreover, it is contended that is Mr. Carter himself has avowed. It jxposed the treasure to irreparable Famage and thus gives the govern ment the l ight to cancel the license. CHESTER SHERIFF DIES AS RESULT OF S-YEAR WOUND Diinitfl Gob ;r Anderson, sheriff of Chester county, died at his home at the county jail Thursday at the acre of 56.

WILSON'S FOES AS SEEN FROM ACROSS THE BORDER The following editorial under the caption, “Humanity -or Gold" was car ried in the Vancouver, B. C.„ Sun: “It is significant, if not pitiful fact, that those same republican leaders who a few years a<?o convicted Wood row W ilson of too little loyalty to the United States, should today themsel ves stand convicted to too much loy alty to their own pocketbooks. “Wilson, it seems, erred in his love, for humanity. His enemies, it seems, err in their love for gold. “Th;s expose, following as it does on the death of Wilson, is going to force the people of the United State to choose between the idealists of Washington and the gold diggers of Washington. “It does not signify a healthy con dition in American politics that the lines should have to be thus sharply drawn. But the contrast between hu manitarian Wilson and the rottenness of those who struck him down is too obvious and vivid to be lightly pass ed over.” WRIGIEYS yifter every meal / A pleasant and agreeable sweet and a 1-a -s-t-l-n-g benefit as well.

I don’t believe there are many cars in Cleveland that have not been in a garage. I have a Chevrolet that has been run eight years and ha? not been n a garage but one time and that was for timing gear and it cost 65 cents. It has the same spark plugs that it bad eight years ago and hits on all four now. I have changed batteries one time. I am thinking of changing for the latest model because this one looks old. I never have started and failed to reach my destination. It will take you there and bring you back. Yours truly, Adv CLAUDE TURNER. COMMISSIONERS SALE OF REAL ESTATE.
