HALF MILLION WILD HORSES STILL AT LARGE IN ARIZONA Phoenix, Ariz.—Although more than 8,000 wild horses were slaugh tered within the year, the Arizona Industrial congress estimates there are nearly a half million still at large in the state. The feed the animals consume Is needed for cattle and sheep. It is claimed that two horses eat as much as three cows and their calves. The wild horses are used prima rily in the manufacture of poultry scrap, canned dog food, fish food and recent inquiries have been re ceived for horse meat for export to Holland. A demand for young hides has developed from Los Angeles where they are made into ladles’ coats. Fifteen thousand head will be put through the reduction works this year. Try Star Wants Ads.

C. * m Around Our TOWN Shelby SIDELIGHTS By RENN DRUM “WONDER WHAT SHE’LL LOOK LIKE?” Is the popular query be ing heard about Shelby this week-end. “She" is the new teacher, and the question is being dangled about by the school tots, always interested in their new teacher—and by the collegiate young fellows about town, who are always on edge ior new dates. * * » Of course, that Is just one of the many questions In the air about Shelby with the school bells all set for Monday’s tolling. "Gee! I’m all fidgety wondering how I’ll .get along with Mr. Smith and Mr. Abernethy. Wonder if their system will be much like that of Mr. Griffin and Mr. Andrews?” one teacher asks another. “I wonder, too,” muses the other teacher. “Hope to goodness they don’t give me classes with 35 or 40 students to the class. When there is so many to a class, the students cannot learn—and a teacher gets gray hairs." ♦ * ♦ —‘‘Mr. Ebeltoft, I want a his tory,” asks a timid little girl as she walked into the book store. “Well," what kind of history,” comes the voice out of the semi gloom of the reading couch to the rear. “Modern, ancient, medieval, United States, European, North Carolina, or what?” "I don't know. I just want a history,” comes back the timid voice. • • * And there are many other school time questions: “Wonder if I'll get a chance to make the football team?” “I got my old teacher back. I hope she’ll be good as she was fore she got married?” It’s a great season of the year. SHELBY SHORTS: One young fellow Informs that he is having a pair of pajamas remodelled for public wearing purposes so as to save Shelby's rep as a modishly dressed town .... The billboards around Shelby indicate just how much of the weekly payroll goes for "the necessities of life.” In a row of seven billboards two advertise ciga rettes, one a smoking tobacco, two automobiles, and one make of gaso line . Shelby’s Webb boys shouldn't take their one or two golf defeats so much to heart. Look *,t the flop of Bobby Jones himself . ... Squire Sylvanus Gardner, whose memory goes back farther than some of us have lived, recalls that the first cotton planter he ever saw in action was being used by Jule B. Fortune, the Shelby postmaster of the long ago, who is now in town for his first visit In a quarter of a century. Mr. Fortune was using it on his farm four miles north of Shelby and the planter was consid ered ‘‘a quare contraption” in those days ..... The Shelby high school band, some ol the parents are say ing, is, from every appearance, all dressed up and nowhere to go:' a collection of costly horns on their and no one to teach them to toot. A HEADLINE IN WEDNES day’s Star, telling of a motor trip by a county citizen, reads “Passes 3,000 Cars in Two Hours Time.” Be lieve us, the auto dealers here abouts are sure asleep at the gas feed unless they fall all over each other finding out what make of car that fellow was driving. HERE’S A LITTLE DITTY WE borrow from F. P. A’s “Conning Tower” for the amusement (?) of the fellows who climb the stair ways to the Shelby stock broker ages: Ay diddle diddle, I thought I would fiddle With stocks that started to sputt; A little Bull laughted to see such sport And a Bear ran away with my shirt. THE A. V. WRAY STORE WE read in the news columns has a new advertising manager, and then we notice the new slogan in the Wray advertisement—“Where Your Dol lar Has More Cents.” The new ad vertising manager should have well-earned his first week’s check for slinging out such a slogan for the customers to roll over their tongues. 3,000 HINDU WORKERS GO TO FUNERAL OF MONKEY Hubli, Bombay Presidency. — One of the strangest funeral processions in India was held here when 3,000 workers in the local railway work shop carried the body of an electro cuted monkey to the burning place. The monkey was electrocuted by touching a live wire in the work shop, and the workers felt that it was due to their own carelessness that the monkey died. They decicred therefore to give him a proper funeral, and his body was carried with all the ritual and ceremonies accorded to the body of a Hindu,, with all the workers fol lowing the cortege. It has been discovered that the new money fades. Which may ac count for the fact we have seen so little of it.—Dallas News Pleasant Hill News Of Current Week Rain is Welcome.
