Sof* Drinks As Many Sands Of The Sea and All Must Have Appropriate Handles Do people really like all these queer “concoctions” showered up on os, or are they merely stimu lated to order them by the names that appear over soda fountain glasses? Soft drinks, like race horses and Pullman ears,, possess names that have intrigued human ima gination since the practice began. A horseman seldom has so many prancing steeds in his stable that he must devote his sleeping hours to ((injuring up names for them. A few hours cognition or a chance inspiration usually provides a fit ting handle for his two-year-old and his task is thus solved. Pull man ears, though they seem as plentiful as dead Indians, are not tinned out in a second as are soda fountain beverages. But. consider the ptigin of those Who have fall en heir to the task of quenching the nation’s thrist with niftily named “concoctions” since Mr. Volstead decreed that Atnreica should go thirsty or run afoul the law,. The drinks he must name are ns sands of the sea, and his pos sibilities with syrups, ice cream, sizzling waters, fruits and alleg ed fruit juices are unlimited. Requires Genius The owner and manager of a popular soft drink parlor said he solved the problem through the imaginative and creative genius of a trusted employe. Behind the counter attending to the hurried demands of insistent patrons, stirring a coke, mixing mnlteds. and jerking sodas all in one breath, this trusted employe did not look as though he had much time for entering into the occult realms of imagination required to conceive handles for his wares. A thirsty neighborhood can con sume plenty of funny sounding names on a hot night. A line-up of soda fountain gems may run something like this: Leaping Lena, Fig Leaf, Siberian Freeze. Fickle Tickle, Flappers Fizz, Varsity Vim, and Rainbow "SUM" When Nature takes on the garb of Spring-—REFRESH YOURSELF! When budding leaves and fra grant flowers take a new lease on life, and the air is washed crystal pure by gentle nimr and warming sun, you can emulate the example of all the growing world by “sprucing up.” Clothes scientifically clean ed in our plant refresh ydu mentally as well as physically. They put you in tune with the joyous days of Spring. “MAY WE SERVE YOU?” “QUALITY” CLEANERS — DYERS. Phone this or this . . . 105 ... . 106 ! Special. Out in Hollywood the enterpris 1 ing soda shakers have capitalized ! the naming of coolers by charg ' ing publicity prices for names of I drinks like the “Gilda Grey Shake,’ j “Polar Negri Nectar,” “Marion Davies Dainty Delight,” and | “Gloria’s Glorious Glassc.” Most of the names seem to ask the pa tron to take a chance, and give no j due as to the ingredients contnin . ed. The rtick name is good for j business, it seems, j Name Intrigues \ The customer gets tired of see ing “Chocolate Nut Sundae” stare | him in the fave every day, point ! ed out one manager of a drug I store in Hendersonville. He sees j the name ‘Bldck-K.ved Susnn,” or I something else. It may have a i sensational attraction, or be may I he intrigued by curiosity, hut he | says, “Guess I’ll rty one.” He j gets his usual chocolate sundae | but it tastes better with a new i name. When the youngsters of yester day wished to be listed among the village cut-ups, they went right out and ordered the most expen sive thing on the menu, a banana riplit but the yod‘.h today must have a headliner composed of iwo or three kinds of vari-colored ice creams, crushed nuts, fruits and whipped cream. It has all the ear j John, Old Fire Horse, Loses To Motor Truck, Hauls Coal; And Dies Burlington, Mar. 15.—(INS)— John is dead—an outcast m the 1 great parade of coal haulers. And with him passes an institution. John was a fire horse—a king in his day. Firemen all over the state, from the coast to the mountains, remember the day he dashed to i fame on Cherry street, Winston j Salem with his wgon and jumpers ito win a state championship in I .'10 2-15 seconds. j Hut that was in 1914. Came a day when the city decided that .John’s j private stall must give way to ! progress. It was the beginning of [ a new era—the dny of motorized • fire-fighting apparatus. There was a handful that pleaded ! for John with the thought of put i ting him on Kasy street 'or the re mainder of his life. This thought, however was passed up. and Jlhn was offered for sale. The sale price was small and his transition was quick. His old friends continued to re cognize him for several years— patted the head that drooped down, marks of a five course dinner, but i it is popularly considered as a re [freshment by devotees of the mar ble fountains. stroked the mane that was matted and unkempt, soothed the coat that was glossless and ragged. During the big snow he slipped on the ice on his rerssion of haul ing coal to warm the fireside of his erstwhile friends. The old nag. 22 years old, died. VAN METIS ELATED OVER ( AMI* MEET Raleigh.— (INS) —J. Van B. Metts, adjutant general, is elated over the mobilization of toe .%! Ii division at Camp Jackson, S. ('. this year. “As our troops do not have an opportunity to see or mix with large bodies of troops, I feel that the mobilization of the 30th divi sion every few years is a great advantage as well as very instruc tive to every young man in the Guard.*' The adjutant general has writ ten Senator Simmons. of North Carolina, expressing his apprecia tion for his action brought to bear in the interest of the mobil ization of the division. Shelby is sure to grow when the in which to stay.

Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan, ],,,' himself knows nothing more it other than what he’s read in newspapers. The popular Asheville attorney, and senatorial candidate jn last primary, said all this in a statement to the International News Service following wide spread reports that he was being “boomed” for the Grand Dragon ship to succeed Judge Henry A. Grady, of Clinton, resigned. Makes Denial “I know nothin? whatever about it, and the report is utterly with out foundation.” Our Dob declared Judge Grady, who was Grand Dragon of |he Ku KJu* Klan in North Carolina for four year . re signed a few weeks ago after an alleged break with Imperial Wiz ard Hiram W. Evans. The Clinton jurist resigned, hr said in a statement issued at the time, because the Imperial Wizard had attempted to have anti Catholic legislation introduced m the newly-dead General Assembly. Earlier in the week ex-Con gressman H. L. Godwin, of Dunn, branded as false reports that he had been offered the office, an I in statement issued at his home towr declared that in his belief no sel ection for an Imperial Wizard for North Carolina would be made “until the field is thoroughly re organized.” Published reports that another “boomlet” was under way for In surance Commissioner Stacey Wade brought forth ihe statement from the State officer that the “report is ridiculous, and I’m not even a member of the Klan.” See O.
