It Is now claimed by the eaono mJc prophets that the dog that ha* been running so long Into the wood* Is now running out of the woods poetically that “Night's candles are, burned out and Jocund day stand ing tip toe on the mountain tops," scientifically that the law of action and reaction applies to the Indus trial world and the last year being the worst in history, the next will Introduce us to that long departed friend prosperity. At the same time It Is remembered tliat tire dog while running out is still in the woods: that, while the rosy dawn graces the mountain top. It Is still dark down In the valley: and that while the cycle of good times is coming our way it will not strike Shelby until she Is ready to receive it. In the meantime there are In Shelby several hundred people out of employment, a- people willing to work and anxious to work, the greater part of whom will suffer In silence all the pangs of outrageous fortune and never hint to their most Intimate friends that their little ones are going hungry. This Is a class of people we all love, a people who do not want handouts, but a people who ask only for an opportunity to work and thereby make an honest living. What are we going to do about their distress? Many of our well to do people have doubtless planned many ex penditures for next spring, houses to be built, houses to be repaired, houses to be repainted. Doubtless the town ha* many Improvements scheduled for Installation just as Soon as the panic is over. The coun ty has some roads to be constructed just as soon as practicable and sev eral of our cotton mills would like to make Improvements, But what about the finances? Fin anciers tell us that there Is noth ing worth a dollar except a dollar. It is true that dollars are very val uable. With the exception of very few lines a dollar will buv far more today than a year ago/ It will buy more lumber, more brick and more labor by far than a year ago. And If the prognosticators are correct, it will buy far more today than a year hence. Therefore those who expect to get above par for their dollars must spend them now The weather prophets tell us tint! we shall have a severe winter and therefore much suffering. Yet there enough of good people in Shelby to transform a bitter winter Into glor ious summer bv a spirit of helpful co-operatkm. What are we going to do about It? J R. DOVER.

HIDES TITLE TO leu im Orman Barones# Has Nearly Com pleted Course At Johns Hopkins. Baltimore.—A German baroness ha.s completed nearly three years as a student nurse at Johns Hop kins hospital, with her title known only to a few intimates. Baroness Marie Dorothea Eugenia Freiin von Kleist Is enrolled as Miss Marie von Kleist of Germany. The only hints as to her lineage until recently were those found oceaeion aly oh a letter from her father or a package from her mother. A blonde with curly hair, she told laughingly and with a slight accent of her life and her difficulties In overcoming parental objections to nursing, when her Identity became generlaly known. "I managed to arrange a trip to the United States in 1926,” she ex plained, ”to visit relatives In North Town, a suburb of Buffalo. After ward ^ went as far west as Chicago without my parents’ permission. My mother Was dumfounded when she found out—Chicago has such a bad reputation.” Shortly after this the baroness de cided to take up nursing, and plan ned to enter a New York hospital but her mother overruled this. So she came to Baltimore in the fall of 1927 and enrolled at Johns Hopkins. “In this country,” she said, "nurs ing is more of a profession than In Europe. I do not know whether I will continue when T graduate. I have never seen my father's new home in Bavaria and am eager to go there for a visit.” Find Nordic Site 5,000 Year* Old Primitive Pottery, Jewelry And j Utensils Found In Checho slovakia.

Cambridge, Mass., accord ing to a report just received from Dr. Vladimir J. Dewkes of the Uni versity Museum, who Is field direc tor of the expedition, ‘ The second summer’s work of the expedition," Dr. ReWkoE stated in his report, “has produced a number of interesting and important finds. In the course of our excavation at Horoviee. southwest of Prague hi Qzeeho-Slovakla, we have uncovered objects that point to Slavic burials, of the late bronze and iron age. “Iti addition to this we have car ried on extensive digging at Hom olka, northwest of Prague, where the finds reveal a settlement of Prague, where the finds reveal a settlement of people belonging to the so-called Nordic phase of the period, 5,000 years ago. Eneollthic or earliest bronze age “When the whole site has been completely dug up It will mark the first time in the history of Euro pean archaeology that a primitive settlement has been excavated. "The Homolka site is a steep, ^rounded hill connected by 0 saddle back to a long ridge and as many as 50-pits have been discovered in the course of a complete excavation of the site. A number of these pits v ert refuse pits,' others were used for purposes which we have not .vet beer, able to determine. ‘In addition to the Eneolithic ob jects types of very primitive pottery hau come to light which indicate that the site was possibly occupied over a long period or perhaps that in this region a nuumber of differ* lent cultures met end later merged ! into one. “Extensive excavations have oeen carried on at Chrastany, west o( ' Plague, where objects representative of Neolithic and bronze age cultures were found. The material recovered was most Important, including some beautiful bronze r.gc pottery and a perforated hoe of the same period. “The whole Central European reg ion is archaelogicauy very Important, and as yet little understood, and when the finds of the expedition have been studied and the results published, no little light will be thrown on the hstory of man in Etnope I’sing Limestone.

A cotton goods manufacturer pays :he farmer 9 cents for his cotton ind manufactures cloth therefrom ind sells It back to tne larmer on i basis of 9-cent cotton. BUT: A tobacco manufacturer pays the larmer 12 cents a pound for his to oacco and manufactures therefrom plug tobacco, snuff, cigars and cig arettes, and sells it back to the farmers on a basis of 24-cent to bacco, and WHY? Ask the Repub licans. My firm recently ordered a ship ment of merchandise which weigh ed 2,500 pounds from a distance of 719 miles. It took 1 of our best rail roads exactly 14 days to deliver that shipment at destination, thus haul ing the said stuff a distance of about 3 miles per hour, and they call that service. Just 2 days later, we ordered a bill of goods of the same character from a town 442 miles away, and this shipper decided to ship ,the said goods to us by truck and in exactly 31 hours (less than 2 days'), the stuff was in our warehouse ready for distribution. I believe more strongly in railroads than I do in trucks twhlch the taxpayers furnish fine road-beds to wear out), but Mr. Railroad must make some changes if he cares to compete. Modern bus iness methods demand quick action and not snail-ism. And furthermore. Bill Smith is the daddy of 4 sons, and each son graduated In the 6th grade at school and there are no more brains in one of the Smith's heads than In any other—but Sam Is a railroad engi neer, and is paid $275.00 per month for his service. Rubin works-In a cotton mill at $3g.00 per month, and Joe is a policeman at $150.00 a month, and poor old Tom farms at nothing a month and boards him- j self and his 7 younguns. And there you is, Mr. Hoover, I am not selling my opinion nt present, in facfe—I have never had a bid on any of them, but good times are not just around the corner, ns Mr. Ford would have you think. We have to “live down” hard times and good time will return so gradually, we’ll never know that they are re turning. In 18 months, X think, more of our people will be employed at some kind of wages, Cotton will fetch a somewhat better price, wheat will pay for its cost of pro duction, and taxes will be higher and graft slightly more extensive, but we will grow used to our sur roundings and will finally quit grumbling. Of course, we could have a war that would help. Mike Hits Evolution a Lick. Hazelhurst, Ga„ Nov. 4th, 1930. Mr. Mike Clark, RFD Flat Rock, S. C.
