No matter how one gets hurt nowadays the lawyers are alert 'enough to find someone with money to sue. But come to think about it, wen was it that Senator Sim mons wasn’t hopeful for a Dem ocratic majority? The climax te two good news stories in North Carolina were written on the same day with ' the same words—‘‘Not Guilty,” Thd farmers of Cleveland countv haven’t anything on the townfolks of Shelby now. Both are shy on water. The heat of Wednesday at. least eliminated one pest. It was too hot for anyone to re , mark: “Warm, isn’t it?” “Because of hard times in Denmark many farmers are having trouble meeting mort gage payments,” reads a news dispatch. Why don’t newspapers - carry home news? A native of Shelby back in town after an absence of 38 years says the town doesn’t look the same, but has improved. Style, in dresses and cosmetics, has wrought the same changes Jn women of 38 summers. Ye Paragrapher has one con solation with a temperature of 102. Short stuff, poorly written, should prove mere popular than lengthy discourses of wisdom. TWINKLES Congratulations to makers of safety razors. Following the re cent verdict in Mecklenburjr husbands will forsake the old model face mower. A headline in a Ch.i'-'o '.' per Wednesdav road: “Football Talked as SUMMER SLIPS ” So that’s slipping? The me'cu:'• „ climbed to 104 Wednesday ard - hardened Carol man wev ■ U *vn pd with heat. May wo all when life slips show such strength. WE’LL AGREE n . The Charlotte l azor-giil, * charged with cuttin/ the throat " of her husband, said when ac quitted: “I am through with men forever,’’ 1 ' We’ve no doubt at all about that. She’s right. But whether her m?n-less future will come a?, a result of her own initiative is another matter. No man has a hankering to feel the blade of an old-time ra zor at his throat when it’s being manipulated by the razor-girl, and for that reason we echo her sentiment th»* she’s through with men forever. THE WORLD SOON FORGETS The car whirred down a rough side-street leading into Shelby. Some distance ahead falteringly stepped a man. who one knew by his walk was blind. Bent of form and none too well, the man stumbled into a side ditch to let the car pass by. With unseeing eyes he tried to recognize the person greeting him from the nassing car. Then he starte on his trying jourr “That fel>*w was one of the hardest working men who ever lived in Shelby. At his trade he ■ had no. superior,” remarked the man in the car.. And today, beset by misfor >■ tune, he stumbles through the back alleys and side streets, his day of service over with nothing for present cheer and little to look forward to—other than fin al relief. SPEAKING OF IGNORANCE Editorial comment of the Greensboro News—“There’s not much of anything left to dis cover now,” mourns the Rich mond Times-Dispatch, “except ‘Who hit Billy Patterson,’ and 'What became of Charlie Ross.’ ” Is it possible that Virginians have not hoard of the existence of Mr. Dellinger of Cleveland county? * * * And we add: Is it possible that Greensboro writers have ud heard that Julius Coleman Dellinger lives in Denver, which is a town in Lincoln county, some two hours automobile ride om Cleveland? First thing one knows the Daily News may err again and <a.v that the Charlotte Observer didn't discover Dellinger. ONE THAT SERVED WELL Though his service was in a faraway land and amid anothei race, Cleveland county should be proud of the finished scroll ot Rev. Pleasant Bostic, who died at his post as a missionary in China last month. Rev. Mr. Bostic was one of three coming from the same family to enter the foreign mis sion field. Working with him in Pcehow was a younger brother, Rev. Wade Bostic, and in the same country was a sister, Miss Att.ie Bosjdc. Men back home seldom think of the sacrifice made by those who gc into the foreign mission field—not only of the life they give up, but of the trials, tribula tions and hardships met in the new life. Thirtv-five earnest, working years Pleasant Bostic, gave to the Chinese and his God. That’s tribute enough to any man. Would that something of equal worth could be written at they end of the trail to the life work of every man. May the noble work he has done in his vast field of endeavor he carried on ro Dm shoulders of his relatives and fellow work ers. They know better than other men that his life was worthwhile. WHAT uF this Recently The Star noted that Cleveland county farmers, those who have good dairy herds, are paid $150,000 each year by creameries for their butter and milk, and with the information was the suggestion that more farmers should take to this sure cash crop. After a perusal of the article a farmer who lives in town and is also considered a business man, said that such a program was “tommy-rot” and that Cleve land county farmers were al ready producing more milk and butter than the market demand ed, being one of the leading dairy counties in the state. Ignorant, or Misinformed? North Carolina IMPORTS six thousand pounds of butter ard twenty-seven thousand gal lons of milk. READ THAT AO A IN. ••’very farmer in Cleveland eoir'tv could double his dairy herd and still fall far short of •'pplv'jr just North Carolina’s demand for butter and milk. In fact North Carolina would still import some butter and milk it every county in the state pro duced as much creamery pro ducts as Cleveland. | There’s little danger of Hood ing the market. Cleveland county larmers casting about fer a side-crop to take care of the farm treasury when the cotton price is not en couraging can find nothing bel ter than butter and milk. The Shelby and Mooresboro cream eries are clamoring for more cream. Their butter is becoming popular over the state—and it’s natural that North Carolina folks who buy the 16,000 pounds of imported would rather have North Carolina butter. It was suggested in a previous article that instead of receiving $150,000 annually, Cleveland county farmers should be get ting $300,000 annually for their dairy products. In fact, after noting that North Carolina, call ed a progressive state, can’t sun nlv herself with milk and but ter, the yearly income should be raised to $500,000. Imagine the added prosperity even $300,000, coming from the sale of cream would give Cleve-j land countv this year with cot ton low and the leaf hopper both1 high and low. It’s time for contemplation— and the purchase of several bun dred more registered cows. * * ¥ Sneaking from the standpoint of. the state, there’s little to boast of in the figures showing that butter and milk must be import ed. , Writers and boosters when pointing out the remarkable ad vance of the state usually speak in terms of four things: Roads, Schools, Industry and AGRI CULTURE. Frankly, there is not a sensible alibi for even in cluding agriculture. . Any state that yearly buys hundreds of tons of western hay and imports thousands of pounds of butter has no right to claim agricul tural preeminence, or even boast of farm progress. “Robbing Peter to pay Paul” is no better exemplified than in a state that produces big cash crops merely to derive the cash to buy necessary farm food and feed from other states. Fact is, it is doubtful if ends meet by the procedure. It’s like sticking a pin in an inflated balloon to note that a state called the Union’s most progressive* by Herbert Hoover and Brisbane, has to import a big quantity of butter and milk. Hot Baths and Hot Drinks Are Cooling IIow To Rat and What To Wear Arc Things Wor*h Knowing In Hot Weather Wliat is the best way to keep cool in hot weather? "A hot shower bath followed by a ' ot dr'nk. taken during the hottest part of the day,” is the most sur ’■rsing #f a number of answers to this problem Riven by Popular Science Monthly. Tne hot bath cleanses and opens *he pores of the skin: the warm drink induces perspiration, which also cools oif the body. The chief business of the skin physiologists say, is not to throw off poisin. hut to regulate the 'empernture of the body. The pores, opening and closing, are the doors through which the body heat must escape. Heat opens them; cold clo.. s them. Plunge into a tub of very cold water and the pores close tight, shut ting in the heat, with the result that after your bath you feel hotter than over. Warm water has the opposite effect, ononing the pores wide an 1 letting the heat escape. The hot drink helps in causing per spiration. which cools you through ■vaporation. Much depends on the humidity of the air about you. If you arc suffering from dry heat; t m more you per: pire the better, for the tily air will take up the moisture from jour skin. If the air is moist, aim idy saturated with water, perspiration drops will remain on the akin sur face. Another suggestion for keeping ecel is to reduce the amount of body beat that has to h<‘ let out by avoid ing heat-producing foods. Eat oranges grapefruit and the seasonable fruits, non-starchy vegetables an 1 raw vege tables salads. Eat lightly of meats, breads and potatoes and very light of cakes, pics and candies. Of all the kinds of fuel with which we stoke our bodies, vegetables and fruits produce the least heat. Mea‘s keep our body stoves roaring. Sugar, giving us’ heat in winter, is no friend in summer. Sweet drinks are to be, avoided. A s'ngle ice cream soda, dietitians point out, often contains as many calorics as a whole meal of meat, vegetables and bread. A third N gestion is to wear clothes that / ’ light in color, loose in weave ana worn loosely to permit free circulation of air. Rectcr Has Family Of 2 Nationalities One Sor Is Native American. Others Are British Born. Kinston Man Married In Scotland Kinston.—Two of three sons of Dr. and Mrs. John Hartley, o? this city, are American citizens, one by birth and one by naturalization. But the third, Arthur Hartley, reached man I hood without becoming a citizen of the United States, and thereby hangs a tale, told now for the first time. The Rev. Dr. Hartley, eminent Episcopalian clergyman, was British horn and reared. He married in Scot land. He came to America with his bride. Th-y remained here for sev eral years. A son was born to them. They returned to England and spent several years, during which time three more children were born. Then | they came back to the states. Arthur was one of the three b<mr tn Eng land. one a daughter. The other son horn overseas took out papers and was naturalized. Ar thur reached the age of 21 before his father had become an American citi zen. Thus he was reared and lived in the United States, indifferent to his nationality, a citizen of a foreign na tion but an American in thought and action. Vihen the United States entered! the war young Hartley enlisted. He was assigned to office duty at a Texas army post. Chafting under the inaction, he asked for his dis charge. It was refused. Then he pro duced records which proved him a British citizen, being held in the American forces against his will. He wanted to hurry across, he said. Hi** superiors saw the point. He was dis charged. In a few weeks young Hart ley was at the front with a Canadian unit. We havn’t heard any movie pro-j duced clamoring to sign up that girl who is national spelling champion.— Columbus Dispatch. M« CASE HAS SURPRISE EVIDENCE Announces Arthur Butler Is In Insane Asylum And Not Dead. Cran ford Is Unmoved. Albemarle, July 22.—The state sprung a surprise this morning in the trial of Nevin C. Cranford when it announced that Arthur Butler is now in an asylum in Raleigh. There had been no previous hint that he was anything hut dead. Witnesses who had seen Butler stagger nway from camp told pathetically of later ob serving buzzards in the direction he I went, hinting that lie had died. With the announcement of Butler’s insanity, the state has gone off on a new track. It is showing that Butler, in a crazed condition, was beaten and bruised and otherwise inhumanly treated. 'I his reduces the* number of deaths under the Cranford administration to five. Tell Of Dead Bodies. Three men today went into details about three dend bodies. Dim do tor, J. I. Campbell, and two undertakers, Wade Lowder and Virgil Ross, de scribed at length the eon lition in which they found the remains of James Terry, James Howell and Hen ry Wooten, negroes, who died while serving sentences on the Stanly coun ty chain gang. If the recital had any effec* on Ne\in C, Cranford, now on trial fo’* murder of the first two men. he did not show it. He sat stoically through the day and exhibited less apparent worry than he has at nr.y previous time. Direct ItcfutaMi ci. Today’s testimony was the first offered by the defense in direct ref utation of the charges that Cranford is guilty of killing T°rry and HowM'. Previous testimony has contradicted the implication of itensc cruelty. Nothing New Comes Up In Fortune Hunt The week has brought no new de velopments in the claims of near 20t> North Carolina people for a share ir the three hundred million dollar Hop kins fortune in California. Norm Carolina claimants, inducing one m Rutherford county, in the Bostic sec tion, have employed counsel and arc apparently meaning to sic the mat ter through, but'the legal procedure, of the move is not definitely known yet. Federal Judge Votes Webb, oi Shelby, yesterday infprmed attorneys for claimants that th- only way the federal court could have jurisdiction over the matter would be in the legal form of a suit. 'It will be remember ed that Mark Hopkins, native of North Carolina, died years ago in California, leaving t\ vast fortune. Thc^ estate,.' it is, said, w.-m split be, tween a brother and a common law wife. Now relatives in this and othoi eastern states are claiming that they are entitled to share in the fortune. The Bostic claimant is Mrs. S. W Long, who says she is a great gram* niece of Mark Hopkins. PRISONERS GIVEN FREEDOM BEC AUSE OF INTENSE HEAT Raleigh, July 22.—Because of the intense heat, City Judge W. C. Har ris today ordered the release on their own recognizance of all prisoners in [ the city jail awaiting trial. A innn must he charged with mur der or something very serious to he kept in that place this kind of wealh ! cr, Judge Harris declared as he or | dcied the turnkey to swing open the doors to the jail. Some 15 or 2 ) pris oners walked out, after being recog nizcd for their appearance in city court for their trial. Judge Harris is the democratic nominee for superior court judge in the Seventh district. It’s a wonder the barber shop mir rors haven’t cracked under the strain of seeing so many stranger faces in late years. A trusty lias escaped from the Iowa prison far is. at Fort Madison, evidently seeking farm relief.—Oma ha World Herald. HUM SUFFERING Ml LIFE MISEMSLE Until He‘Found Herb Extract Known As HERB JUICE Which He| Save Brought The Relief He Had Been Seeking For Year. W. B. HARGETT “It was a long time before I finally found a medicine that would give me any satisfactory relief and now that I am at last relieved of my formir trouble, I feel as though 1 shall give this statement and tell others how my health was greatly improved through the use of the wonderful herbal r^medv. Herb Extract, known as HERB JUICE. “Herb Extract, known as HERB JUICE, is the best medicine I have ever found to keep me healthy ard in an active condition’," said Mr. W. B. Hargett, well known carpenter, who resides at 18.12 Dallas Avenue, Charlotte, N. C. He told the HERB JUICE representative :n an enthusi astic way how HERB JUICE had re stored his health. “For a number of years before I began taking HERB JUICE I had suffered dreadfully from constinatnn and indigestion. My stomach was always upset, never felt like eating at meal time and what little I did eat caused me to suffer afterwards with a tight, bloated feeling in my stomach rom e*as. I tried in vain to fird something that would cure me of tin indigestion pains, regulatr my bowers, and build me up. I could not sleep at night and had such r. tired, worn out feeling when I would get up in the morning., that I <H<1 not feel like going lo my work. Several months ago I started taking Herb Extract known as HERB JUICE, having been urged to do so by a friends who said1 it would do the work for me and put me in a healthy condition. He did not overstate the facts, for just as 1 soon as I began to take it 1 began to improve and feel better in every way.
