Florida-North Carolina Boom (Mecklenburg Times) Climate in Florida is attractive in winter time, but tourists begin to m6ve out in early spring. Florida boosters are now turning their at tention to Western North Carolina as an ideal summer resort and capital ists are making large investments in that section. Publications of national circulation are beginning to connect North Carolina with the Florida boom and developments in Western North Carolina are being given wide pub licity. The recent purchase of con trolling interest in Cleveland Springs hotel property at Shelby by Florida capitalists, for extensive develop ment, is another sign of tne transfer of the Florida booster spirit to North Carolina. While much capital from North Carolina has been invested in Florida, it now looks like the total will be small in comparison with the amount of Florida capital that ( will ultimately be put into We- eri!

Mull this week or next in connec tion with entering and robbing of freight cars on the Southern yards here. Railroad detectives are working on the matter and one warrant has already been is sued. Quite a number of cars have been broken into in recent weeks, officers say, and on Sunday night alone, it is said, that eight cars < were entered. Small articles of j merchandise are about all that has been missed, which offers the presumption that boys have been entiring the cars. Cigarettes seem to be the big lure for those breaking into the cars and the warrant already is sued is said to be tyr a boy who has been silling | cigarettes to friends recently.

Rated About Equal. Football fans in this section arc as sured the best high school game of the year Friday afternoon on the city park when the Shelby Highs will play the victorious Boiling Springs eleven for the county high school footba I championship. Picking the probable champions is a difficult task judging from advance scores. In years heretofore the county championship has practically been n matter of form with some eleven meet ing and losing to Shelby, but this year fans will have an innovation :n a real battle. If Shelby wins it will be a surprise to many and all acquaint ed with the records of the two elevens anticipate an interesting contest. How They Line Up. Shelby has dropped two out of three contests, turning in their first victory last week against the Lenoir Highe. Boiling Springs has a record of four victories, last week trampling the big Kings Mountain crew 26 to 0. From the score of that game Shelby looks to be the loser. However, the Shelby eleven of last Friday was a completely different machine from that of previous games. The return to the’line-up of “Coon" Mac ness, flashy backfield man, added a couple touch downs to the scoring strength of the team and deadly tackling to the de fense. Magness' presence means more to “Casey" Morris’ boys than just lira ability to side-step the fleeting yards in that he inspires a feeling of con fidence and fight in his teammates. They feel that with “Coon” around the eleven will be hard to stop and every player goes his limit to rival the fleet back in his advances and to tackle I with the same deadliness. McKinney and Arnette, backs, anj McIntyre, end. give Boiling Springs a strong scoring punch behind the gen eralship of Woodward and the light Shelby forwards have a task in stop ping the plunging Baptist attack, which may also take to the aerial route. If Cleve Cline and Singleton can work behind the line to halt tr,c Boiling Springs backs while Beam and Big Elliott are fathoming the line plays Shelby may win, otherwise it fs up to Shelby to run up a score that m^y overtop the Baptists. Gardner, Shelby’s 15-year-old pivot man, seems to draw the difficult tasks of the sea son. In this game he will face Sparks an outstanding center. Last Friday the youngster stood up well to tbfc on slaughts of Tuttle, the big Lenoir cen ter. With such experience he, should give a center Of His. own size a real fight, if He. ever'is Jurify enough to draiv an- easy assignment. The Shel by backfield will depend cpnsiderab ly on the versatility of Magness’ side stepping and soutnpaw, toe, though Gillespie may be back in for a 'few speedy tears at the line. Grigg so far has handled his eleven well considcr i ing that his previous experience was in the line. With eleven men playing Grigg’s headup game Coach Morris believes that he would be a regular torment in the state race. Anyway, the game Friday will furn ish several interesting features—the deciding of the county championship and an appraisal of Shelby’s strength against a strong eleven with Magness in the line-up.

I Epidemic Taking A Heavy Chicken Toll Some Poultrymen Say Colds, Some Say Limberneck and Some Say Sorehead. Remedy Suggested. Poultry raisers of the county are complaining about the heavy death toll among chickens but the disease does not seem to be the same in every poultry yard. Some contend that “lur berneck" is the cause, others say colds and still others are losing their fowrs from soreheead. Limberneck conies on rather suddenly and is a sort of j paralysis in the chicken’s neck mak-' ing it impossible for the fowl to eat. Death usually follows. Many chick- j ens have sorehead which is a more ) common complaint. T. C. Hitchcock of the Cherokee farm who is quite an authority on all diseases of chickens \ says his flock has been suffering with colds, brought on because of the se vere hot summer, sudden drop in the temperature and lack of sufficient | green feed. Mr. Hitchcock says green feed is essential to a fowl s welfare. | It not only makes hens lay better but it seems to balance their ration and keep them well. He finds permanganese of pota: h is ! a fine preventative for diseases. This can be secured at any drug store and , while it is poison, it can be used in 1 small quantity in the watering places without harm. It should be dissolved in a bottle of water first ihen poured sparingly into the drinking water. -■ . Federal Judge Webb Charged With Speeding Greensboro, Oct. 20.—A warrant against Judge E. Yates Webb, of Shelby, of the western North Carolina Federal district court, on a charge ot speeding his automobile, has been is sued at the office of O. W. Duke, local magistrate, it was learned this after noon, but has not been served. Rural Policeman W. F. McAdoo swore out the warrant against Judge Webb, who told officer who he was but the policeman was skeptical and wired to Raleigh to learn the name of the person owning the tag on the ear. He was informed by mail that the in belei-g' ■! u. J'-Vig*3 V ».M\ Shout Of Joy Goes Up As Slayer Of Hender sonville Mayor Is Freed. Hendersonville, Oet. 20.—“Not guilty” were the words that fell to night from the lips of the jury, when Bonnie Brooks, charged with killing former Mayor Sam Bryson, was ar raigned before the 12 men to heat their verdict. The jury held that Brooks acted in self-defense when he fired the fatal shot that snuffed out the life of Bry son on August 6 last. Two ballots were necessary, two of the jurors not hav ing made up their minds fully on the first ballot. The insanity plea wan not considered. Consideration of the case was be gun at 7 o’clock and at 9:45 the bailiff was instructed to summon the court. The bell tolled and the crowd soon filled the court room. Brooks was calm and possessed as he took his seat, and this calmness did not desert him when he stood up to receive the vet diet. Shout For Joy. As the words “not guilty” felt from the lips of the foreman, a shout of rejoicing went up from the im mediate members of the family, and an outburst of handclapping was started. Brooks personally thanked each jurors and members of his fam ily did likewise. On emerging from the court room without un officer at his side for the first time in two months, Brooks was fapseiged on all sides by friends who congratulated him. The verdict occasioned no surprise, as it was generally believed the pris oner would be acquitted. The charge consumed an hour and a half, during which time the judge viewed contentions of the state and of the defense, cited the law and defined the varying degrees of murder and manslaughter. He instructed the furors as to how they would determine the nature of their verdict, and then read a prayer of the defendant covering a review of his contentions and private charges by the court. The defendant had no right to kill because of Bryson’s wrong to his home, but the jurdrs have the right to take into consider ation former relations between the two men in arriving at their verdict. The defendant did have the right to kill, if he had reasonable groundrf to suppose Bryson meant to kill of do him great bodily harm. If they so find the verdict would be justifiable homicide. If the defendant's mental qpnditlmt i was such at the time he could fj'flTdts 1 tinguish between right .or wrong upon this particular subject, they would not convict. This did not mean he would have to be generally insane. If they found the defendant, willfully and with malice, meditation and delibera tion killed Bryson, as contended by the state, their verdiet would be mur der in the first degree. If there was no deliberation and meditation but malice was found, the verdict would be murder in the second degree. If the defendant convinced them there was no malice but the killing was in the heat of passion the verdict would be manslaughter. New House Section Doing Fall Plowing Promotion Day at Sandy Plains.
