Advertising gets results. Suncrln tendent. (i riff in received a letter Iasi week from a young girl-- the “young” is only supposition— that carried a message somewhat like this: “I nolK ed in the paper about six Shelby tea cm ors getting married during the sum mer.

CARPENTER, ONE OF A FAMILY OF FIVE DRUGGISTS Down at the Cleveland Drug Store there presides the smiling face of R. E. (Boh) Carpen ter, noted for his optimism and cheerfulness. Mr. Bob was torn over in Riverbend township of Gaston countv. two miles from Stanley, on the farm and in the territory famed for Bob Aber nethy’s picnics and the mammoth watermelons that grow in that vicinity. He is fond of horses, that’s why the artist pictures him holding to his hobby. Now Riverbend township is famed for its Carpenters too for Bob was one of five boys who took to the druggist profession. All have- for saken it, however, except him. They “departed” from the straight and narrow path and entered the highway of politics, law, banking and manufacturing. In all these professions they have been eminently successful. Not many years have passed since Mr. Bob’s grandfather was sheriff of Gaston county that some member of the family has nr' add an office in Gaston county. One-brother succeeded the other as register of deeds, some went to the Legislature while John is now solicitor for that, dis trict and is being urged to make the race for Congress. Now, they are not politicians—they are statesmen and while Mr. Bob has never sought public office, the duty of membership of the city school board was thrust upon him in Shelby ten years ago and he has filled it with credit and dis tinction to himself and the town of Shelby. Mr. Carpenter had his first experience in the mercantile business at Stanley back .‘13 years ago. His father started a business there in 187 9, a pioneer merchant and farmer, arid while his father has passed away, the store and farm are still a family pride, lie studied pharmacy in Raleigh under the late Dr. Wm. Simpson and entered the retail drug business in 1892. During these 33 years he has filled thousands upon thousands of prescriptions and each one with the same care and consideration that marks every du ty h. performs. In point of service he is the old est druggist in Shelby. He bought the present store from Clyde Webb in 1906 and came here in January 1917. Hi-, partner is Frank E. Hoey, another Beau Brummel of courtesy and politeness, and the two make a fine team, pulling together in perfect harmony. Mr. Carpenter was married to Miss Bessie Smith of Trenton, S. €., and they have one attract ive daughter, Miss Mary Frances, popular young High School girl. They have just completed j handsome two-story brick veneered residence on S. LaFayette street. ! * vUR “WE APPRECIATE YOUR TRADE” And that’s a genuine motto.
