The rest cf the money the public paid us went into mating a car with scores of thousands of miles of excess transportation. These earnings are a triumph for the one-profit basis of manufacture.

In short, these ore the came fine cars in every particular—oniy the price has been reduced. You can’t appreciate what a bargain Studebakcr csrs arc at these new prices until you compare them point by point with others. Remember that Studebakcr cars have been kept constantly up to date. Improvements have been made as soon as developed — not saved up for spectacular announcements under the guise ot “new yearly models’’ designed to depreciate cars already in the hands of owners. Superiorities—both hidden and obvious Many of the most important superiorities of Stude balters are hidden until revealed by thousands of miles of usage, but here are some you can check to prove our statement that every Studebakcr is more up to (Jatc than the newest “yearly model."

DOGGETT BROTHERS Dealers - Shelby, N. C. THIS IS A STUDEBAKER YEAR SHELBY MISSIONARY IN CHINA SAYS SITUA1ION GROWS FROM BAD TO WORSE Dear Loved Ones in America: Since I wrote about 10 days ago, the situation over here that has been brought about by the student class, has gone on from bad to worse, till there has been some wild talk of war, in which according to report Feng Yu Hsiang, the world famed “Christian General?" is leading. I am not at all sure that he is saying all that is at-* tributed to him. but many fear and others feel confident that he, since he weht to his new position in north yjniu, rhs ut'curne inuruu^niy linked up with the Red force* of Rus sia. There are more and more evi dences that this whole movement that is affecting the whole world from China, if not entirely in the hands o* the Reds of Russia and China is cer tainly very powerfully influenced by them. Our last two papers give an ac count of a Russian and his professed wife who were arrested a few days ago in Hongkong as suspects and sent hack to Shanghai and they are in the hands of the mixed court there with such strong evidence that he was sent fortli from Shanghai for the sole pur pose of organising bands to make dis turbances that the court at first fix ed his bond at about $27,000 Mexicans, but before the second day in court they had gotten such further evi dence that they withdrew the privi lege of Jjond altogether and yet his wife is allowed to go free and is In the hands of the Soviet consul in Shanghai and they can do perhaps ait the damage he meant to do. Reds from all over the world are encourag ing these made students in China and if the whole world can realize that and the better part of all the world, including China, cun unitedly epose this doctrine of the Devil that has led in the past seven years to the Russians killing about five million of their own j people, that may check the world wide! movement and so thus flare-up here! in China may prove a blessing in dls- i guise. May it really prove so, for as ! i often said in talks at home if China ever gets swept off its feet intfc full fledged Bolshevism, then we are te; have a situation in the world by the side of which the world war will seem insignificant. May His great mercy save China and the world from such a catastrophe. I and many other Americans out here have been amazed j at the statement attributed to Senator Borah and which I suppose he made as it has not been denied. His lan guage out here, however meant by him, only encourages disorder ar.d di* turbance of a most serious kind 10 the whole world, even if it does not en courage outright Bolshevism. Our paper of July 1st that came yesterday reports that the soberer thought in Canton seems to be pre vailing where the so-called govern, merit had gone clean off its head, so that it was able to send in to the Britist consul a note based entirely on made up lies, as best I can gather from the papers. They have been wild er in Canton than anywhere eles, in so-much that the cadets from their military school were in the proces sion that fired on Shameen, killing a Frenchman and wounding several otb. ; ers. Those cadets were in the proces- ' sion in uniform and under arms and under the leadership of a Russian of ficer, who is said to have given the oitler to fire as they passed this beau, tiful, wealthy little island which Is the foreign settlement of Canton, with millions of dollars in property and business and yet which was, even since I came to China, only an isalnd of sand that was offered one of ou» missionaries for $5,000. But for for. eign pluck and money and energy, it probably would have still been only an island of sand. That is one of the most slinging things to the reading Chinese class—they see what can be done by co-operation and money and yet they never have been able to do anything of the kind because of their utter lack of confidence in one anoth er. They wish to grub these billions of dollars worth of concessions now with all that is on them rather than got the inbnck by the reasonable and consulting idea as has already been agreed to by all the great powers in (he Washington conference. There wiK have to lie lots of money involved in the final transaction in this matter and that is the one article, among many other important commodities, that the so-called government here has not and just now cannot get; but by fnr and away the most serious ob stacle in doing just now what these crazy students are demanding from the powers is that there is no real government in China to which to turn over these matters and with which to deal in handling them, and you can be quite sure that they are not going to just rushingly hand these most valuable concessions with their vast wealth over to these student organi zations, however loud and long they may howl and however hard the hold ing on may be on the part of foreign er*. I think the backbone of the op, position is broken from reports in our yesterday’s papers and they are breaking down right where they fail in everything else—lack of any honest co-operation. Our papers are now re porting that of probably more than a million dollars contributed from all the world Chinese and the Soviet gov ernments about 80 per cent of it is lodging with the machinery. The stu dent organisations that have stirred up the matter in Shanghai and about 20 per cent of the near quarter mil lion workmen, many of whom these stuck-up student bodies have forced under fair promises. This situation la causing the more sober students and business men to be discouraged, and so it looks hope ful that matters may settle down again soon. Many of the things for which they are clamoring they ought undoubtedly to have and will get as already promised by Washington conference, whenever they are able to take over and manage their own af lairs with some degree of justice and right, but just now they are very far from that point and nothing shows it more clearly than the utterly unjust things they have both done and said in this matter. In Peking both the Chinese and dip lomats have appcinted commissioners to take up and discuss the matter of the justice or the injustice of the shooting of nine persons on the 30th of May as they were trying to get out of the hands of the police several of their fellow students who were ar rested for violating the laws of the municipality in trying to stir up tho minds of the people against foreign, ers right in the foreign settlements. This is the question around which all the fuss started that has led to serious outbreaks at three other port cities along the Yangtsze and several deaths. Were these policemen justi fied in shooting to prevent a mob of 2,000 agitators from getting into pos. session cf the police station with all its arms and ammunition for the pro. tection of far more than a million peo ple living within this municipality, tho very large majority of whom are Chinese who live there and do busi ness and pay their taxes, because it is the best governed place in China. Now these students have thrust in at least 13 ether large questions, most of which are most important and in ternational, they say all must be set tled with or before this simple ques tion of that shooting is settled. I am now quite hopeful that within a few' days soberer judgment may pre vail and some agreement may be reached. Some are afraid that we cannot go about our country work in tho autumn, but I do not yet feel so. This whole question is going to affect most seriously and widely our mission educational work and I hope much foe the better. Even if it causes every missionary in China now in educa tional work to turn even for awhile to telling the story of Cod’s love to dying sinners in a wide and earnest man ner, I am not sure but that it might be a great blessing instead of a ca lamity. Yesterday’s paper told of one of the most prominent mission schools in China having been rejected by its students who propose to set up a new and better one. They are to call theirs “The Great Light School." G. P. BOSTICK. Po Chow, An, July 6, ’25. Poems Of Country Life: ‘The Good Old Farm.” Progressive Farmer. Down on the farm ’bout half past four, I slip on my pants and sneak out the door. Out in the yard I run like the dickens To milk all the cows and feed all the chickens. Clean out the barnyard, curry Rhoda and Jiggs, Separate the cream and slop all the Pigs, Hustle two hours, then eat like a Turk, By heck! I am ready for a full duy's work. Then I grease*the wagon and put on the rack, Throw a jug of water in the old grain sack, Hitch up the mules, slip down the lane, Must get the hay in, it looks like rain. Look over yonder, sure as I’m born, Cows on the rampage, hogs in the cornT Start across the meadow, run a mile or two, Heaving like I’m wind-broken, get wet clean through. Back with the mules, then for re compense Rhoda get a-straddle the barb-wire fence. Joints all aching, muscles in a jerk, Whoop! Fit as a fiddle for a full day’s work. Work all the summer till winter is nigh, Then figure at the bank and heave a big sigh. Worked all the year, didn’t make a thing, Less cash now than I had last spring. Some folks say there ain’t no hell: Shucks! They never farmed; how can they tell? When spring rolls 'round I take an other chance, As fuzz grows longer on my old grap pants, Give my galluses a hitch, belt an other jerk, By gosh! I’m ready for a full year’s work. D. M. PETERSON. FRONTIER DAYS AGAIN RECALLED AT DEADWOOD Deadwood, S. D., Aug 1C.—Dead wood has turned the calendar back fifty years to relive the Blackhills Gold rush, “days of ’70.” Streets of the once most widely known gold camp in the world are again filled with be-witiskcved men, primitive cabins. Bearded miners pan gold daily in Whit Wood Creek, which flows through the town, the old time dance halls have been reproduced. The old spearfish stagj coach and an impersonifkation of Deadwood Dick, in his scout garb of half a cen tury ago were high lights of parndq yesterday. -SCHEDULES INTER-CAROL!NAS MOTOR BIS COMPANY Leaves Shelby for Charlotte 7 a. m., 9 a. m., 11 a. m., i ln 3 p. in., 5 p. m., 7 p. m.-Leaves Charlotte for Shelby S a 10 a. m., 13 Noon, 2 p. m., 1 P- n».r* 6 P- *>• SCHEDl'LE L1NCOLNTON-SHELBY BI S Leaves Shelby 7s30 a. m., 10 a. in.. 1 p. m., 3:30 p. ni„ r,:J5 p. m.—Leaves Lineolnton 8:30 a. m., 11a. m., 1 p. m., 3:00 p m 7 p. ni.
