Sidrliglit:, In Events About Wa h inglon. (By Allege Sumner, NEA Service Writer, i Washington.—One of those silly but none the less true things is tin alternate joy and alarm which Washington officialdom reads into Herbert Hoover's collar. The Herb ert Hoover collar is as well known in Washington as the Calvin Cool idge taciturnity. It’s the same kind of collar which he has worn for nearly a quarter of a century. He discovered It in England. He's ordered them by the grass and carton ever since. It's a collar as Is a collar—the sort that utterly obliterates the great open spares twixt the chin and the col lar top. Collar and chin meet. The collar acts somewhat in the man ner of a check rein on a horse. Keeps the chin up. Because of the unwavering con stancy of that collar, the conserva tives rejoice. Here, say they, Is a man who will never yield by one Jot nor tittle those established ten ets of the party. Custom, tradition, the thing that lins always been done, will prevail tn the White House for the next four years. Because of that collar, the pro gressives and liberals go about with sober mien. It may really mean nothing; they may be over symbol izing. they admit. Still—one style collar for 25 years, and that such a collar as no other man or horse ever wore! Have you heard "Cheerio" on the radio? That little Pollyannaish geezer who, at the unholy hour of 3:;:o a. m., reminds you how good It is to be alive and get up out of a nice warm bed and prance off to work in this great, big bustling liapny world? Cheerio, you may be interested in knowing, whether you like him or whether you could sin;; hint, is the creation of Herbert Hoover,' next president of the United Stater. I The story goes that when Mr. Hoover had his office in New York a business neighbor used to stick his Ig'ad Inside the door each morn ing and yelp. "Cheerio, old thing." Hoover himself, story has It. had the "cheerio" habit as a souvenir of his "dear ole Lunnon" life. When he became secretary of commerce with certain otflcial radio duties he suggested that "Cheerio” be put on the air. The real identity of Cheerio is no^ known. Some call him a pest; some a ray of sunshine; at any rate, he m“iuv; well, raid the presi dent-elect thinks we should give this little boy a hand, Paulina tongwortli, small daugh ter of Speaker Nick, m rived from Cincinnati about two weeks after her famous parents had leturned to Washington for the sessioh. The. original plan was to Tceep.hor ww*y from Washington's cijy smoke and grime and cut in the country of fresh air and sunshine. It was the speaker who squashed the plans, story lias it. He stood tt two weeks, then said tnat (here was plenty of fresh air in Washington for any youngster and demanded that his progeny be brought him straight way. Paulina is almost a dally vis itor in the speaker's office, though j since she began getting old enough I to be spoiled lie's put on the lid ! about pictures of her with him. Mrs. Nicholas LOngworth met the 70-pound doll wife of the new Jap anese minister at an official luncheon the other day. "I've seen you before," said the Japanese lady. “I was just a little girl when you came to our country in tiie Taft party years ago. and my husband was aide to your husband ou sev eral shore trips. I was thrilled to death to see you. You were the first American girl I had ever seen, and you were the president's daughter. I cut all your pictures out of the papers and tacked them up in my j room."

Five and Ten Years Ago !'j'lowing Items Were Gleaned From Issues 01 The Cleveland Star Of Five And 10 Years Ago. FIVE YEARS AGO January 18, 1924. The W. L. Fanning company is to have a second store in Shelby this to be a two story brick building 50x90 feet on the site of the old Princess theatre building owned by E. M. Beam and sons. The Beams are placing material now for the erection of this store building. Thursday night, January 24 will be "County Fair Night" with Shel by Kiwanlans at their regular week ly meeting at Cleveland Springs. Every community in Cleveland is expected to be represented. Broadus Newman, 16-year-old son of Mrs. If. L. Newman, and star end on the Shelby high foot ball eleven, was painfully Injured Tuesday afternoon when one toe on his left foot was blown off by the accidental discharge of a shot gun while rabbit hunting. Young Newman and Thcos Hoprpr were rabbit hunting about 18 miles from Shelby between Casar and Polkville at the time of the accident. The death of Percy Sargent, Georgia negro, who died Sunday evening at the Shelby public hos pital. was due to a gun shot wound received while resisting arrest by lawful officers and the shooting was justifiable and occurred in a scuf fle in which he attempted to seize the gun of the arresting officer, according to the verdict rendered Tuesday morning at a coroner s in quest held by County Coroner T. C. Eskridge. The increase in attendance at the Shelby school reflects the growth of the town. The total enroUment for the fourth school month ending January 11th was 1,502 pupils. Compared with last year's enroll ment to the same date of 1.219 an increase of 283 pupils is shown. J. E. Webb, who once gained the reputation for dealing in whole stocks of merchandise has not been trading much of late with outsiders. A few' days ago, however, he sold his wholesale and retail store on South LaFayette street to his sons, Giles and Charlie Webb, who are conducting the business at the same stand. TEN YEARS AGO January 17, 1919. Mr. Irvin Grtgg, one 01 the coun ty's most successful and prominent farmers died Monday evening about six o'clock, following an illness with influenza and other complications. Mr. Grigg is also survived by the following brothers, George, Chaun cey. Pink and David Grigg and the following sisters: Mrs. Sarah Lee, Mrs. Columbus Harrill, Mrs. Wil liam Martin and Mrs. Mary Jane Crowder. Joe Cabanlss and John Norinan who operate an automobile repair shop in the Beam building to the rear of the Princess Theatre, have closed a contract for the agency in this county of the Maxwell car. which they will sell. Messrs. W. J. Roberts and Char lie Laughridge have taken the agen i cy for the Dort, Chalmers and Olds ! mobile cars and the Bernstein truck. They will open a show and salesroom at an early date. Raymond Washburn, the 14-year old son of Rev. and Mrs. ,D. G. Washburn, of Shelby, Route 4, suf fered a painful accident last Sat urday. He was out hunting when his gun accidentally went off, shooting him through the foot. Friends here will be glad to know that the report that Prof. Beemcr C. Harrill was dead is untrue and that he has recovered fiom pneu monii. Professor Harrill was criti cally ill with pneumoina at Camp Jackson and was passed up as dead and his cot tagged with a death label. Miss Marion Hull, one of Shel by’s most attractive young ladies leaves Sunday for Great Falls, S. C.. where she is to be an attendant in the wedding of her friend and class mate at Elizabeth college. Miss Myra Ruff and Mr. Robert Mebane both of Great Falls. Dr. A. C. Edwards has opened up the office for the practice of his profession.
