FEB. 10, 1925. $2.00 A YEAR IN ADVANCE BILL ■ PETIT1S FOB EXTENSION FOE11BEB10 RALEIGH SATURDAY Aldermen Approve Bill Calling For Election On Extension On Tuesday April 14. The bill for extension of the cor porate limits of the town of Shelby »nd petitions asking: for an election on the question containing 1,200 names irere forwarded Saturday to Repre setative B. T. Falls in Raleigh, the hill being drawn by the city attorney 0. M. Mull and approved by the may or pro tern and board of aldermen. The bill, if passed as drawn, pro. tides that the election will be held on Tuesday April 14th under the laws governing elections and that if said election carries, the corporate limit* will be a circle a mile and a half ir. every direction from the center of the court house. tl is known that a petition against extension has also been freely signed, mostly by people residing in the pro posed new territory, but Representa tive Falls has promised an election on the matter and the same will be settled at the polls April 14th. Efforts »re being made to compromise with out an election but up until Saturday 7>o agreement had been reached. Some of the opponents have asked for a five year tax exemption, but those who ad vocate extension are unwilling to grant this. As a matter of fact, any exemption after the limits are extend ed and the proposed new area is in cluded in the town would be illegal, hut the advocates of extension have manifested a willingness to let the ex tension take effect after tax listing time this year so those in the added territory would not have to list their property until May 1st, 1926.

J. Daniels, upon a liquor charge for the third time, was given still another chance owing to his advanced age. Charged with possessing Daniels, who live* at Mooresboro was fined $CQ0 and given a «usnend'’d sentence of six months. Notice that an appeal might be entered was made by his counsel, Clyde R. TToey. Saturday afternoon Officers Austell and Kendrick and Randolph Logan visited the Daniels home and found over two gallons of liquor scattered about in a number of vessels, five 01 six gallons of wine and some “hops’*. Daniels as customary with many ol the older folks takes his “toddy” and it was the contention of his counsel that part of the liquor was for this purpose. An invalid sister of Daniel’s wife lives with them and it was also contended that liquor was used by hei for medicinal purposes, and that the defendant had never been accused of selling it. Although the defendant has on two other occasions been convict ed on charges centering around 11. ouor the court considered his age and the “toddy” plea and without evidence that he had ever sold liquor confined the sentence to a heavy fine. Coors May Pay Cash For Their Fertilizer _ Th<‘ lime for buying fertilizer is close at hand and there appears to be a difference of about 15 to 20 per ; cent between time and cash prices. The fertilizer people are very anx ious to fret on a cash basis and no ’doubt the bit: difference in price is to force the people to secure the money and pet on a cash basis. The United States Government has provided a means whereby the farm er can set cash at a very low rate of interest w th which to purchase fer tilizer and other supplies for cash. This will bring thousands of dollars 1 into the county instead of taking it out and will help to keep business good. This credit can bo secured by giv ing a note secured by the crop that :s being grown Ibis is the simplest and cheapest credit that can be se cured. Millions of dollars are being lent to the farmers of North Caro ! lina. The credit however is limited to numhers of the Cotton Association. See Countv Agent Lawrence or O. Forrest McGill, Field Representative of the Cotton Association for fur ther information. REV MR. WALL IS HEARD AT METHODIST PROTESTANT CH. Rev. W. H.

APPARATUS TO COMMUNICATE WITH DEAD IS POSSIBLE, EDISON SAYS The secretary who arranged the interview with Thomas A. Edison volunteered the admonition: “You must’nt ask Mr. Edison about com munication with the dead. Mr. Edison has been so misrepresented in regard to that delicate matter that if you mention it to him he will go right up in the air, says an Orange, N. J„ dis patch. Despite this dire warning, the for hidden question the first one ven. lured: “Do you think it possible, Mr. Edi son, that you may devise any mech anism through which when you have left this life, you may hope to com municate with us?” The wonder-wizard of communica tion did not go up in the air. He ans wered graciously and fully. But he was cautious against misquotation. He took pencil and a pad and wrote carefully this fundamental part of his statement: “If my theory is correct—that the machine called man is only a mass of dead matter and that the real life is in the millions of individual unit which navigate this machine and if on the destruction of the machine they keep together, including those indi* viduals which have charge of mem ory (which is our personality)-—then I think it is possible to devise appar atus to receive communications if they desire ty make them. It will be very difficult, as each individual as to size is beyond the limits of our present misrroseopes.” Having thus marked securely his metes and bounds, Mr, Edison relax ed into frank talk. He stoutly insist ed that he be understood as not meaning any such moot thing as “spiritistic messages, so-called.” He means messages as substantial and as susceptible of authentication as are those of the telegraph, telephone, phonograph and radio. There shall be no “medium,” no mystery, no super stition, no “authoypnotism known as faith.” His method, to serve at all, must absolutely guarantee the integ rity of the communication it enveys and guard positively against any pos sible doubt, dispute or misconstruc tion. . It goes without saying that com munication with the dead, thoroughly authenticated, as Edison says he must have it, would instantly revolu tionize all generally accepted theo ries regarding human existence, re veal a new science of the essence ot life and open up vast visions as to the nature and ultimate function of matter.
