THERE’S A BIG DIF FERENCE between getting; all you can for what you give and giv ing all you can for what you get. The average Am erican woman spends $50 a year for what she puts ON her face, and the average man spends twice that am ount for what he puts IN his face. Likewise there’s a big difference in gas and oil. Sinclair gas and Opaline oil are products that have pass ed every test for purity and quality. The public’s ap. proval of those products is based on certified perform ance plus unrivaled eco nomy. Cleveland Oil Co. Distributors Around Our TOWN ! Shelby SIDELIGHTS By RENN DRUM LAST SPRING, READERS WILL RECALL, GOVERNOR GARD NER told a group of young high school graduates over at Shelby High that If they wanted to bad enough, or hard enpugh, they could. Hu didn't, say that "If you want to go to college bad enough, you can” but that particular item was included under the general head of his urge to the graduating youths happy for the time being with their sheep skins. I It is about, the season of the year now, one reader of this eolyum writes in to inform, that those same graduates are beginning to wonder whether they wili be able to con tinue their education in college. "There are a lot of young boys about Shelby,” the letter reads, "who heed a little encouragement at this time of the year,* They are undecided now, hut they should go on to college. They can, if they want to. Why not try to inspire them a bit?” Then the writer cites us an ex ample to cite the undecided young men: "Some years back a young fellow entered Shelby high with the determination to get an educa tion. His only means were his ambition to succeed and his willing ness to work. He graduated at Shelby high and he was one of two boys in hta class to attain the honor roil every month. In addition to his scholastic work that boy played baseball and basketball teams, and one year upon the football team. At college he had to give up ath letics because he was forced to do outside work to earn his way through—but he’s going through, that boy is! This fall he will go back for hla third year and he is deter mined to keep plugging. The three years of struggling have not lessen ed his ambition and have had no effect on his morals. He has nevsr tasted whiskey or used tobacco. Some day Shelby may be right proud of him. What that boy is do ing other boys here can do—if they want to.” That's a pretty good example an "Old Teacher,” as the writer dub bed himself, holds out to the boys about town who are undecided about entering college this fall. It is right unusual to hear of a boy of college age who has no personal acquaintance with whiskey and to bacco, but It Is not unusual to hear of the fellow who makes his own way. Our guess Is that seven out of 10 college graduates who succeed in life earned all or a big portion of their way through college. Look about among those who have suc ceeded and you will likely agree. No boy. In Shelby or elsewhere, should give up his ambition to get a college education Just because he was not born with a silver spoon In his mouth. SOME TIME BACK JOHNNY MeKnlght, the aspiring poet of lo cal origin, declared his intention to henceforth be critical of any and ail things, and it seem* as if. *o far. he is living up to his ideals.

"This is the longest time I’ve ever spent helping to select a Jury lor any kind of trial." said Clyde R. Hoey of Shelby, member of the prosecution counsel in the Aderholt murder case, in commenting upon the drawn-out process of selecting jurors. “I was in a murder case once where we spent two and a half day* in selecting the Jury and we thought that, a long while. The Jury for the Kin# case in Chester was selected in a little more than two hours be cause the lawyers did not have the same powers of challenge they do here." Pulling Down The Blinds.

To Build Another Potato Storage • Special to The Star.} EUenboro, Sept. 3. -Being success ful in a recent campaign to sell not less than eighteen more shares in the EUenboro Sweet Potato Stor age Co., me third 5,000 bushel sweet potato curing house will be built at EUenboro within the next thirty days in time to store this season's crop which promises to be the larg est e.ver produced in the eastern section of Rutherford county. With the completion of the third house EUenboro farmers will have a ree ord of building three sweet potato curing houses with a total capacity of 15,000 bushels within three con* sccutive years. Sweet potato growing in the El lenboro community has increased at a rapid rate since the building of the first house three years ago. Crop census reports show that the acreage planted to sweet potatoes this year in Colfax township is al most ten times the acreage planted to sweet potatoes three years ago. This rapid development is the re sult of building the houses, thereby providing a centralized place for storing and selling. Many local farmers »old enough sweet potatoes to pay cash for their fertilizer this past spring, and for that reason they now have a cotton crop almost ready to be harvested without a mortgage. Farmers must think more about diversifying their agriculture so that their production will be financed more on a rash rather than a borrow-ed money basis with high*.'interest rates. Diversi fication is the secret for one of the best kinds of “farm relief” and for lifting rural life to a higher level. Nearly $6,000.00 worth of sweet potatoes were sold by the agricul tural department of the Ellenboro school last year. Then, many farm ers sold on their own initiative.

SOUTH CAROLINA Foods And The Goiter Problem The disease known as goiter is an enlargement of the thy roid gland, due to a deficiency of iodine in the diet. Conse quently. one of the most important preventive measures ever undertaken in the interest of health is the effort to obtain foods that naturally contain a sufficient amount of iodine so that when eaten in moderate quantities they will prevent goiter. South Carolina farms produce food products, vegetables and fruits, high in iodine content. Farms consisting of tracts of 50 to 500 acres may be purchased on. attractive terms. For particulars write N. B. Gamble, Box 1318, Columbia, S. C. REMEMBER THIS: Those school supplies will cost you less at our stores.
