“Shelby Highs Win Their First Grid Game HE IS GDIl STRONG III 48 Hanes (N. C.) Cabinet Maker Says He Is Able To Go Hunting Or Anywhere ,.He So Desires; Feels Fine ~All The ' Time; Praises Millers’ Herb Extract. "Your Herb Extract remedy Is the r only medicine I ever could find that would act proprely on my bovve’s. It Is the greatest laxative known to me. I firmly believe there's none better anywhere and I doubt if its equal can be found on the market today. Surely such a wonderful lax 4 ntive, tonic and system regulator has my hearty indorsement” said Mr. J. B. Sikes, expert cabinet maker, 137 Second Street, Hanes, N. C., who Is always telling ids Mr. J. B. SIKES friends about Miller's Herb Extract, .commonly known as “Herb Juice.” “I am 84 years of age, have used most everything an the market that was recommended for such ills and ailments as I had, but I am frai-k to admit that no medicine X ever used before would half-way compare with Miller’s Herb Extract, called ’Herb Juice.’ For about ten years past I've been in poor health. I suffered dreadfully bad at times with rheumatic pains in my shoul ders and at times every joint in my body would ache and cause me great pain. I was a victim of chronic constipation for years, stomach up set so bad that I suffered terribly bad with gas and indigestion. Every meal was a dread for months be cause everything I ate would hurt me, a fullness and chocking sensa tion seeiped to grip me and warp rne about in such a manner that I could hardly breathe at all. Bowels were very irregular, liver and kid neys all out of order. I would have to get up many times during the night, due to excessive kidney ac tion. But at my age, 84, months ago, I heafd of and started using Miller’s Herb Extract. This remark able remedy has banished all my aches and pains. I am once more free from all that suffering and mis ery. My general health today is very good, in fact, better than it has been in ten years. X fully be lieve that the Herb Extract remedy has prolonged my life, for I doubt if I would be here today had I not used it when I did. I am now able to go out hunting with the boys; go anywhere I please—this I could not do a few months ago. Herb Extract or Herb Juice has restored me to health, and I am mighty glad to tell anyone about it. I will answer any inquiries about this medicine. My wife takes it and she thinks it is the best medicine in the world. We heartily recommend it to all suf ferers. It will do the work.” Sold and recommended by Paul Webb & Son, Shelby, N. C., and leading druggist everywhere. Shelby Eleven Downs Lowell For First Win Farris And McSwain Star As Crip pled Shelby Team Wins Hard Fought Game. The orange-jerseyed Shelby high eleven with its captain on the bench injured and several othei regulars crippled exhibited ?oinc srappy football here Friday to win its first game of the season by de feating Lowell 20 to 6. It was a revamped backfield and f> made-over line with youngsters in here and there all the way through which turned in Shelby’s first vic tory of a hoodoo season by playing as scrubs always play when trying to make the team. r The generalship of Johnny Hen drick, never a regular back until Friday, at quarter and the smash ing backfield play of Hal Farrl3 and the great end performance of “Shorty” McSwain featured fer Shelby, while Leonard, a sawed-off stick of dynamite in the backfield, was the entire show for Lowell. Score Early. The game was hardly underway before Hendrick had his orange eleven carrying the ball all the way across the field on off-tackle plays and plunges by Parris and Barrett. From the eight-yard line Rippy rip ped over for the first touchdown. Parris failed to kick goal. In lie second quarter Shelby scored again on an off-tacgle lunge by Parris and then “Purp" Barrett plunged over lor the extra point from a fake drop-kick formation. In the third quarter Lowell scored with the ‘•Stumpy" Leonard diving time aft er time for good gains through the heart of the Shelby line which fail ed to hold against the onsloughts cf a youngster who in build and piay looks as if he may be another “Shorty" Branch or a “Stumpy” Thomasson. The Morrismen came back to score their third touch down in the fourth quarter, the score resulting from good defensive play by McSwain, who darted be hind the Lowell line three times to dump a Lowell back for losses or from four to II yards. Twenty-five yards awa# from the goal line Hendrick gave the ball to another rookie back, Haig Poston, and toe fleet-footed youngster galloped the remainder of the distance for a touchdown. Hendrick on another fake play plunged over for the ex tra point. Show Come-Back. In their win the Shelby eleven, made up for the most part of young sters and a few crippled veterans, displayed a fine fighting spirit which had not been entirely smoth ered by defeats and shut-outs hand ed them on every other occasion this year. The backfleld which beat Lowell did not have in it a single youth who had ever played in the backfleld prior to this year, and up in the forward wall were only a few boys who knew the game before the season opened. The starting Shelby line-up: Mc Swain and Sheppard, ends; Put nam and Williams, tackles; Hulick &r.d Newton, guards; Logan, center; Hendrick, quarter, Barrett and Rip py, halfbacks; Farris, fulback. Play Lincolnton. The highs have only two more games this year. Friday they play Lincolnton in Lincolnton, and on the following Friday close the sea son here in a game with Kings Mountain. Quifk Thinking. “Henry, baby has swallowed all the ink that was in the inkwell! Whatever shall I do?” “Write with a pencil, I guess.” ROMANCE HIGH COURAGE ..

ADMISSION.10 - 20c 4 Boiling Springs Wins From Wingate Eleven i Drive Of Stroud In Backfichl And Brilliant Play Of Young Bap tist Line Features. Blainey Racklcy's Boiling Springs college eleven, reaching the peak of its season’s play, won its third junior college vic tory of the season here Satur day by defeating Wingate col lege 26 to 0. The driving force of Stroud, hussy fullback, on returning punts ar.d off-tackle plays was the outstand ing feature of the offense of the junior Baptists but the real strength of the Rackley eleven lay In a forward wall which repeatedly cutcharged the Wingate lino and smeared plays before they got un derway. Buck Coble, injured ex-captain of the Baptists, was the outstanding line performer of the day with “Big Six” Caldwell, Howard Moore, the shifty Cecil, and Jim Robinson, the roving center, rivalling him close ly. Robinson was continuously get ting in front of desperate Wingate passes while the diminutive Cecil, who drop-kicked two extra points during the afternoon, was repeated ly breaking across the line to dump the Wingate backs. Entire Team Good. For that matter the entire Boll ing Springs eleven wras at the best form shown In home games this year. Chetty, the big quarterback, was a constant gainer on line plunges, and his head work was the best exhibited by him this season. Fanes, the hardest man of the Bap tist team to stop when headed straightaway, proved reliable in making necessary yardage for first dawns, while Boney, although still inclined to fumble, was as elusive as ever once he got his hands fastened on the ball and got started. Wingate threatened to score uwv once and was halted by a fierce charging Boiling Springs line which caused a fumble and recovered it. The junior Bapt ists scored in tl .e first quarter when the fleet Boney skipped 15 yards for a touchdown on a fake line play. Cecil added the extra point. There was no scoring in the second quarter, but early in the third period Chetty ripped c.cross tt\£ Wingate line for 11 yards and a touchdown and Cecil again stuck his cultured toe in the pigskin for the extra point. Again in the same quarter, after Stroud ran back a punt for 40 yards, Chetty bucked the line for a touchdown but Cecil's dropklck was a bit wide for the point. In the fourth quarter Stroud carried another punt far across the field and a few min utes later scored by carrying three Wingate players across the line with him. The try for point failed. Fans witnessing the game saw a far better performance than the High Point game. There was less fumbling although Boiling Spring's punting was not any better than usual. Gaffney Game. With the form shown by Rackley's players recently fans in this section are clamoring for another game between the Junior college and the flashy Gaffney high eleven for Thanksgiving. Gaffney defeated the Baptist boys early in the season but a second clash should draw one of the largest crowds of the year for this section. Why He Would Not Tell Solicitor Hi* Joke On Bootlegger (Louis Graves in Chapel Hill Weekly.) An alumnus here for the 0'ame last Saturday told me this: In an eastern North Carolina city a citizen—let us call him. for con venience, Mr. Jones—v,as driving along the street wher, he saw his friend, the solicitor of the district, afoot. Mr. Jones took the solicitor aboard and said to him: ‘‘You know that and said to him: “You know that bootlegger you were pro secuting this morning? When your term of office expires you must re mind me—I want to tell you some thing amusing about that case.” The solicitor replied; “Oh, go ahead and tell me now—I need some amuse ment.” But Mr. Jones steadfastly refused. Six months later, when an other solicitor had come into office, he met the ex-solicitor on the street and said: "You remember our con versation about the bootlegger, that day I picked you up and rode you home from the courthouse. I can tell you now vhat I didn't want to tell you then; that is, that while you and I were talking I had four quarts of that same bootlegger’s best brand In the car, right undtr your scat.” Caught Him. ~ " j Traffic Cop: “What’s your name?” Truck Driver: “It’s on the side of me wagon.” T. Cop (trying to read name): "It’s obliterated.” T. Driver; “Yer a liar.

Rejsigrl, star of the Portland Ce ment baseball nine, if his team de feated another. The team won and they were married immediately, but now she is suing for a divorce. IntcrutiMMl Nrmrect What An Orator Is. A negro met an acquaintance of his, also colored, on the street one day, and was surprised to see his friend had on a new suit, new hat. new shoes, and other evidences of prosperity. “Hey, boy,” he said, “How come you dressed up this way? Is you got a job?” “I’se got somethin' better any job,” replied the other. “I'se got a profession.” “What is it?” "I s a orator.” “What is a orator?” “Don’t you know?” replied the resplendent one, in surprise. “Well. I'll tell you what a orator is. If you was to walk up to a ordinary man, and ask him how much was two and two, he’d say 'four;' but if you vas to ask one of us orators how much was two and two, he’d say: ‘When in de cou’se of human events it be comes necessary to take de numeral of de second, denomination and add it to de figger wo, I says unto jtou. and I says it without fear of suc cessful contradiction, dat de results will inva'bly be four.’ Dat’s a or ator.” Guess That Put Him Down. A young lady entered the sta tionery store and asked for a pound tin of floor wax. “I’m sorry. Miss,” said the clerk, "all we carry is sealing wax.” “Don’t be silly,” she snapped. “Who’d want to wax a ceiling?” I-— SHOES FOR MEN We Are Selling FRIENDLY FIVES I AT $3.95 and $4.39 FLORSHEIMS AT $6.95 and $7.95 OTHER MEN’S SHOES AS LOW AS $1.98 THE PARAGON SHOES FOR MEN, WOMEN & GIRLS, CHILDREN NEBRASKA GIRL ‘ Cigarette Heiress,” Cyncert Pianist, Forfeits R. J. Reynolds Stock And Owes Broker. New York.—Miss Margaret Shot well. concert pianist of Omaha, Neb. has disclosed that she not only lost her entire fortune of $900,000 in the recent stock market, break, but also incurred a debt of $50,000 whtch she still owes her broker. The loss was part of an Inheri tance estimated at. $1,000,000 which she received from the estate of John Neal, district manager for the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., and which caused her to become known es the “cigarette heiress.” “Yes, I lost every cent I had In the world,” . she admitted rcud.ly after being informed of a disiratch from Omaha In which her oother was quoted as telling of the loss. “That was $900,000 and I owe $50, 000 to my broker besides.” "But It isn’t smart any more to be rich,” she said,, with a laugh that might have been more hearty. “I have lots of company now you know.” The 22-ycar-oId pianist received her Inheritance after John Neal died in 1923. Most of it was in stock of the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco com pany. Tonight Miss Shotwell said sne was “just one of the suckers.” “I was in Omaha, visiting my mother, when the market started to drop” she recounted. “I sent my Reynolds stock to protect my mar gin and started for New York. My broker carried me as long as he could and I began to hope I’d pull through when I was wiped out in the last big slump.” In Milw aukee, Wis., while they were making a report in a police station, Detectives George Radtke and Elmer Kahn were robbed of their automobile.
