J oheiby Sidelights - roun OWTcwn By Rcnn Drum ONE FELLOW READ IN THE Star t’other day that Henry Ford had made more money iti Hi years than any other human and the com ment was: “Yes. and he has brok en more arms also." A FAMILIAR LITTLE STREET sign on a Shelby display window has changed. It once read “Ri viere's Drug Store" and now it’s “Stephenson Drug Company”. The passing of the old name remover, —ufuler that name at least—one of the Host known sport centers in North Carolina. It is related that some time hack two college young sters Caine motoring through Shel by from their home in Eastern Carolina. On the street they asked someone “Where is Rfyiero’s drug store? We’ve heard that you can get more facts and figures on bast ball find football from the crowd hanging out there than is carried in the rule and guide books of sport dom.” They were right, and likewise they could have found a gang about the front that believed in Shelby High football and base ball teams to the bottom dollar and lust breath. More football and base ball have been played in that drug store by the Radiator league than on every athletic field in the state. A. D. JAMES, THE TITIAN haired “ad" man of The Star, who is a genial fellow in the summer time, tells us l hiit. the next modern artist, who paints a winter lanil ! scape will likely include a flivver steaming .all over like a roast tur key at 12 in. Thanksgiving day. ! Perhaps there will also he in the ' scene a display window card rend ! ing “Radiator .alcohol $1 per gal lonfl” ONE OF THE HIGH SCHOOL, boys here takes exception to the publicity giVen the fact that for! more tyivls make the honor roll in the Shelby Hip'll school than boys. “Of course we’re a pretty dumb! bunch,” he says, “and we spend a i lot of our time looking nt these1 smart girls, who nre also not hard j to look at, but don’t forget that i there arc many more girls in high school than boys. Sure, they’re smarter, hut not so much as the honor roll figures would indicate.” THESE HARD ROILED POLL I ticians of the other party who thick Woodrow Wilson Was a heartless cuss because he got us into war i just because several score good cit izens were sunk with the Lusataina perhaps are holding their tongue i>n ' heir cheek while Coolidge bawls out Nicaraga and Mexico for the oil barons and Catholic priests. Anyway a reader apparently of the i Jeffersonian political faith, sends us the following little jibe from the New York World: “Onward Calvin Coolidge, Marching as to war, With the Mex. Petroleum Going on before.” TODAY’S FABLE: BOR HORD down to the Blue Ridge lee Cream company is giving away recipes tell ; ing how to make “snow cream’ and ice desserts from frozen water ^ pipes. SOME OF THE THINGS SHEL ! by folks must wonder about: Where does George Wray learn all his new jokes? Is Clarence Mull in a good humor all the time? How many friends George Smyrnios has? If i tlie, barbers ever sold DcWitt Quinn any hair tonic? Why thoj don’t put, windshields on the front of ptesent-day “bobber” chairs? What days in the week the pump at the court square fountain works 1 regularly ? If the court house clock is ever .correct ? And why this co! yum is forced upon kind readers? : THE NEXT LITTLE RUN about town is scheduled for Friday „if somebody tells us a few new ! jokes.
