TRIDAY, NOV. 14, 1930 TWINKLES A little more than five weeks until —finish it-■yourself, but be getting ready. * . ■ > Who said college boys no longer burn the midnight oil? ’ What about the lights for night gridiron play? Give the.automobile credit:; It seems to be doing its best' to eliminate unemployment, The highway death toll grows day by day. The Star joins in with Shelby.citizens in welcoming back the returning Methodist ministers, Hayes, Jenkins. Barber. .Forbis. The conference displeased no one here by returning them. A report from Geneva stating that the world's supply of gold is decreasing inspired The Charlotte News to write an editorial entitled "Running Low on Cold." Lot of truth to that, even more than is said. Fact is, as Ye Twinkier views ;• it—a personal view—gold is not the only cur rency in the shy classification these days. ROTTENNESS ALREADY THERE pH OF. HORACE l). TAFT is quoted as saying the follow ing about prohibition: “1 don’t think the people of America would stand putting the government into the liquor » business, How would you like to put the control of liquor in 4 to the hands of the Tammany and Philadelphia Machines?’' The Star isn’t any more in favor of tampering with pro hibition enforcement than is Prof. Taft, if as much, but his statement is none too sound. It isn’t the fault of prohibition or of liquor that the governmental machines of Tammany and Philadelphia are what they arc. Wouldn’t it be better ^ to eliminate such machines before entrusting them with the i enforcement o? anything ? FOR THE COLORED CRIPPLES •JHE ORTHOPAEDIC HOSPITAL at Gastonia is one thing which North Carolina may hold up to outside critics without the least fear of sarcastic comment. In recent years the institutioqjuu* rendered a great and noble service to the crippled child$j|)$ of North Carolina. On October 22, it is announced, a inegro ward is to be opened there for treating and caring for as many as a half hundred colored crippled children at one time,' This addition was made possible by the generous gift of $40,000 by Benjamin Duke, and the opening. The Star knows, will be a red letter occasion not only for colored cripples but for Bob Babington and the men who have labored with him in the interest of North Caro lina’s crippled tots. SINGING ANOTHER TUNE NOW JUST A FEW MONTHS AGO the old line Republicans in ^ Washington—those of the Mellon-Butler—-Grundy gang —were fuming and deriding the “sons of the wild jackasses.’’ At that time the regular Republicans had very little use from the Republican inclined congressmen and senators from the west who refused at times to obey the commands of the leaders of the party machine. The derision of the sons of wild jackasses was even heard here during the campaign, one speaker declaring that the Hoover-Mellon-Grundy re gime had not been criticised by anyone except partisan Dem ocrats and those independent westerners. But since the election we have an idea the G. O. P. boss es are singing another tune. With the House and Senate strength pretty well divided between the two parties, the Republicans will be courting those “sons of wild jackasses’’ instead of berating them. Such is life—and politics. KNOWING OUR SCHOOLS yODAY THE'OBSERVANCE of American Education Week ■ in America and in Cleveland county was brought to ai close. It is to be hoped that a npajority of the parents and j patrons of Cleveland county schools managed some time dur- ’ ing the week to visit the schools and see just what their j children are doing and what is being done for them. The American educational system provides the opportunity of! free schooling to every bov and girl, and to continue the pro-! gress and advancement of that system necessitates the un derstanding and cooperation of all parents. The primary | purpose of the week was to acquaint the public with the, work of the schools, their aims, achievements, and needs. The hope is that the observance of the week will strengthen the schools, the ties between teacher and pupil, and between the parent, the teacher and the school. It should inspire all to gtf$#t«!f'fcdlteyement, a-»: » * HOLIDAY BARGAIN TIME QBSEflVANT READERS of The Star’s advertising col umns are already aware of it, but it seems of enough im portance that The Star might again call attention to the re markable holiday bargains being advertised by Shelby mer chants; Ndt in many ^e^rs-gjinore years than the young jshoppers can recall—have Shelby merchants been so situated! ns (o offer their holiday trade the low-priced bargains of to day. The business depression and the subsequent drop in | price of necessities apd luxuries will result in a saving of thousands of dollars To the hundreds of people who will shop in Shelby during the holiday season, shoppers who are al ready shopping. It isn’t very long any more until the Yulc 1 tide season, and the wise shopper is always the early shop per. This year the early shopper is finding more bargains than he or she had expected. Our advice to shop now, and to keep up with the bar gains of today’s market through The Star, is not merely ai boost for the merchants, but also should be a valuable tip to' Star readers who form the nucleus and more of the patronsj in this trading area. i _____________ THE 1931 FARM OUTLOOK JT IS PERHAPS the wisest course “not to cross bridges; until you get to them,'’ but the sensible man seldom leaps' I before he looks. Such should be the course of the farmer, | now undergoing considerable hardship because of a low de Imand for farm products. A report from agricultural experts land workers at Atlanta this week conveys the cheering pre jdiction that ‘‘the domestic demand for next year's farm pro ducts m the South is likely to show an improvement. This prediction is based upon the belief that foreign demand for Southern products in 1931 will increase because of an im provement in foreign economic conditions. Another reason advanced is that industrial activity has fallen about as low as it can. and the low level of raw material prices may be expected to stimulate activity among consumers of raw ma terials. There is. however, .one gloomy side to the Atlanta rc ! port and prediction, Credit conditions may not be so favor able. This outlook is based upon the fact that the short harm income of 1929 will prevent many farmers from meet ing their obligations and repaying advances in 1930, thus lessening the credit strength for 1931. At that, a future with some silver as well as some dark lining in the clouds is much better than a future with no silver lining. The farmer is too much a basic part of mod ern civilization to be burdened down always with handicaps, short markets, and low prices. j Cox Explains Name Of Clint Owens On Republican Ticket To the Editor Star: T noticed there was a complaint made by Mr. C. C. Owens (or Clint Owens) in your paper of last Fri day, Nov. 6 to the effect that his name appeared on the official Re publican ballot and was noted on for justice of the peace in township No. 6 in last Tuesday's election with out. his knowledge or consent. For Mr. Owens information I only wanted to say that B. E. Williams at that time was secretary of the ex ecutive committee and recorded the action of the committee, and In my absence filed the names of the var ious candidates with one John Mull, chairman of the board of the elec tion and if Mr. Mull had desired to give you and Mr Owens the truth about this error as he showed he could have done this now as the election is over. He knew that I didn’t file this list of candidates but did call at his office and gave him my personal check for these fees (to cover the various candidates fees.) I don’t know Mr. Owens, but I think he has a justifiable com plaint. one should have been given the truth about this matter. I am satisfied the secretary then had no desire to do Mr, Owens a wrong. I also take it that the secretary of the (committee signed my name as chairman to this document and still Mull knew I didn't file this list with him <1 was out of town.) 1 some time wonder if a special deal or premium was placed on the truth after the election and not during the campaign could it be told. H. CLAY COX. mmm ME INTERPRETED "The paramount demand of our era is to establish an harmonious unity between the inalienable rights of the individual and the nation on the one hand, and the categori cal rights imposed upon us by so ciety, both national aud interna tional, on the other. "That this demand is everywhere regarded as the most urgent is best evidenced by such earth-encircling organizations as Rotary. It is only natural that we should unite and that we should unite on a large scale for the common solution of a problem which confronts each of us as an individual and of which we all feel that it is not only a moral problem, but a highly practical one.” —Thomas Mann, Munich Rotarian. winner of the 1929 Nobel prize in literature, in the November Rotar lan Magazine,’ CALF-PATH a not-too-serious analogy '.V’v. * tiSikfgW vmf hit »• j «M»# b*»***t, r*mm4t v* of Sow » fow'i fom+st p—m, r*o£otf A *•» MAmi .»^o~ v« o*M* On* day, through a primeval wood, A calf walked homo 01 good calves should;' And loft a trail all bant askew.
