LIGHT SAC KS COSTLY Judging from his writing Editor Page, of Kings Mountain, will not advocate traffic lights for his town. THE STARS AND STRIPES FOREVER An Englishman says they need a Hal! Mills case in hisj country to make the newspapers i\ uiable. Think of ail the; conveniences and comforts one enjoys as an American. GETS THE BALLYHOO By the next election, nothing will have been talked more by 1 the American people than A1 Smith’s qualifications—that is, | except Henry’s flivver. GREAT CIRCULATION BUILDERS (| Years ago the larger newspapers learned t hat t here is not h-! ing to beat the serial mystery story as a circulation builder. J The modem version is a “truc-to-lifo” yarn, the Hall-Mills; r case.

GOOD FOR SOMETHING T-.'^The Gastonia Gazette notes that a cotton yarn is worthy 7 of a streamer headline in a South Carolina paper. Which is •* nothin# but right. Cotton yarn ought to be good tor some 1 thing. am, .._ 1 ALL PICK UP TOGETHER £ It is encouraging to note that Shelby business houses are ~ doing better business this year than at the same time last 2 year. However, the trouble is that the calamity howlers show < improvement along with the rest of the; world. % __ _ THE NEXT CONGRESSM YN—WHO? The Hickory Record notes that this district may have a warm Congressional battle at the next election period, A fact that this paper noted some weeks ago. Such is about as easily heralded by the blossoms in coat lapels as Spring is by the buds on the trees. IT HARD TO PHOTOGRAPH No one will daresay now that the Greensboro News is not a fearless newspaper. Upon' his third escape they present a second time the photograph of Otto Wood, which the desper ado terms a bad likenes of his countenance and forbade them using It again. However, Otto Shouldn’t blame the Daily News photographer. How can a person snap a kood picture when the object is on the move so much ? RECTOR S LONG SERVICE On November 1, 1876, a young Episcopal clergyman as sumed his first charge as rector of St. Paul’s parish in the little town of Edenton. Fifty years have passed and he is Stitt rector of the same parish, which has been his only charge. i. His rounding out of a half century of labor was fittingly celebrated on November 1 of this year, with appropriate sor and a historical pageant in which .150 persons took part, beloved rector, still in good bodily-and meats! v igor, wua high tributes by visiting church dignitaries, and received , congratulations of people of all denominations for miles anniversary thus celebrated was that of the Rev. mt Drane, who has christened, married and buried Orman generations of his parishioners, besides minis to their other spiritual and temporal needs. Truly a and perhaps unique record of'serviee, to which may be added several years to come. BUREAU REPORTS HURT only do the cotf-#i farmers suffer because of the bi thly estimates by the census bureau on the cotton crop, the textile indusrty as a whole is always unsettled and »n» because of these reports. As far as our knowl goes, the government does not, make estimates every , weeks on the other farm products, but only on cotton. It be worth something of course to business to know how cotton will be made, but these predictions are not reli •nly estimates, founded of course on careful surveys, uaecurate because there are so many conditions entering the raising of cotton. next Congress should forbid the government making estimates, certainly before the crop is pretty well mat certain. The mill men find that it unsettles their tho brokers are always in a quandary as to the f el the finished product and no one benefits except rhe tor. Each time this season the bureau has i its estimate which in every instance has lowered the The report does not take into account the low grade Cotton is cotton regardless of quality in the estimate The South and the textile industry' as a whole ( could save iho groat expense it is put to in collection informa-! tion on which to base its prediction?. GROW REGANS Another pood money crop to substitute for cotton is a prove ! of pecan trees. Newer varieties of pecan, trees do not take a 1 life -time > come into bearing ro if some of our farmers would ! take some waste land and plant in pecan trees, they woOidlj find them good revenue producers within five or six years, j We are told by Shelby wholesale grocer men that pecans | bring from thirfy-five to fifty cents per pound and they find '! a ready .sale especially du * ng rhe holidays- Trees from nine to ten years ot age yield 50 to 100 pounds of puts. Old and b-rgest trees yield as much as 500 pounds, so it is not diffi cult to sea the cash value of each tree on a place. Here in Shelby there are many trees which serve as,a shade i as vve]J us u money pr-v-rer. We would urge all who are ! hunting trees at this season of the year to give consideration jj to the pecan. If you t! >r*’i. fed inclined to plant an orchard, set out a few about the home. Down in Georgia ws .* tncre are great orchards planted j,' for commercial nr. •> >ses, there if a p» can growers association I which grades the/ids according to size and softness of the j shell. When the re' ail ‘••'a trees of distribution won’t absorb; the crop, jthey urn shipped by the car load to candy manufac- 1 turcr; for use in manufacture. As the crop rarely fails to l>i< ducc, requires little care and is not a perishable product. : we hop; CU v..land county people will consider the planting of I •t few trees at least. i THE PRINCESS THEATRE Home Of Good Pieties And Good Music, —TONIGHT— Jett a Gouda1 in “HER MAN O’ WAR" With William Boyd.
