Paid subscriptions are fewer than 1,000. A recent report: by George H. car ter, public printer, eliows that the government printing office turns out 35,500 copies of the Record each day congress Is in session and that the cost of the daily and bound edi tions of the Record averages $600, 000 per annum, almost wholly paid by the federal government. Congress itself Is the best customer of the Record, although the government lets anybody purchase the Record at a reasonable rate—$1.50 a month or $8.00 for all editions of a long con gress session and $4.00 for a short cession. Members of congress are author ized to purchase any number of ex tracts from the Congressional Rec ord for circulation in their districts. The cost is only that of composition and paper. “Flanked” envelopes are supplied free for the mailing out of such extracts and the chief use made of the privilege is in a cam paign year. On the average about $65,000 to $70,000 a year is expended by members of ct^igress.

Aubrey I,. Calton. Adm n -trator, Newton & Newton, Attorneys. 6t-Jan 26 ■U Reynolds Profits Greatest In 1930 Winston-Salem.—The annual statement of R. J. Reynolds To bacco Company, issued here re ports earnings of $31,256,664, a near ta'gh record, as -ompared with $32,210,521 for the previous year. This is equal to $3.42 per share for 1930 against $3 22 per share in 1929, and represents a continuance of record-breaking armings shown by that company for many succes sive years. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities, according to the statement, is over 12 to 1, with no bank debt, no outstanding bonds or preferred stock, and with only the nominal sum of $1 assigned to Its brands, trade-marks and good will. In a letter to the stockholders, Bowman Gray, president of the compr ny, pointed out that the re port "is being sent to the largest number of stockholders In the com pany's history, the aggregate num ber being nearly three times that of two years ago.” "The company,” Mr, Gray said, "holds she res of its own stock which are carried at a figure less than market price at December 31, 1930.” During the past year the company sold a block of the she res previous ly acquired, and the profit from the sale was applied In reduction of the cost of the shares still held. No part of the earnings shown in the treasurer's report for the year was derived from the sale of stock.” FOREST CITY HAD BIG FIRE LOSS LAST YEAft Forest City. Jan. 23.—Forest City. Rutherford .ounty's largest town, suffered a large fire loss during the past year.

Cornet Trade and IV Warren St* Vi . ..— Accused Man Slain By Girl In Court Room With Dramatic Suddenness, Arkan sas Woman Rises r'rom Seat, Kills Who Slew ’ather. DeWltt, Ark., Jan 21—A judgment of death, rendered in a crowded courtroom by the pistol of 17-year old Mrs. Helen Spence Ecton, has ended the trial of the accused slay er of her father before a jury could return a verdict. With dramatic suddenness, the daughter from the White River country rose from her seat Monday rnd fi-ed four bullets into the body of Jack Worls, 30, Just as the Jury prepared to file from the room to deliberate charges of murder against him. Her action ended a river episode \ that cost the life of her father, A. Cicero Spence. and eventually brought death to her mother. Panic Develops, As Worls slumped to the floor,1 panic developed vlth women and children screaming and fighting to get out. Mrs. Eaton surrendered quietly to sheriff’s deputies lit the courtroom and was taken to the State penltentlcrv Little Rock. Worls was accused of wounding Spence and throwing him from a boat into the White river while still alive. Two other men and Mrs Spence we o in the boat. i ne siaytng occurred i„: a remote section of the White river country, snd it took officers several days to Journey to the scene and return with Worls and Mrs. 8pencer, who officers said had been beaten. She died two weeks ago in a Memphis hospital. “I’m not sorry for it and I’d do it again,” was Mr. Eaton’s comment at Little Rock. “I was afraid that Jury was going to free him. Worls claimed he killed my father in self defense, but I shot him down like he did my father—in the back, or at least from behind.” "I stepped out to the railing and pointed the pistol right at him and pulled the trigger,” she told officers, “He fell out of his chair to the floor. He never said a word. Everybody seemed to have hurried out of the courtroom and I found myself alone. “Finally a deputy came up and I handed him my gun.” She lias been given lodging in Warden S. L. Todhunter’s home un til she can be transferred to f e appropriate quarters than the State penitentiary which has no depart ment for women, EXECUTORS’ NOTICE.

Women did not powder and paint smoke cigarettes, play poker, do the black bottom, show their knees in public. They were taught to cook at the age Of ten. Men wore whiskers and boots, chewed tobacco, spit on the side walks and cussed. Laborers worked ten hours a day, took a dMtth In a pail and never went on strike. No tips were given to waiters and the hat-check grafter was unknown. Boys walked to school ( where the Bible was read ) 1. B.’s and B, V. D ’s were unknown. No one wraa ever operated on for appendicitis, tonsllitts or other itla. Microbes were unheard ol'; folks liv ed to be a good old age and every year walked miles to wish their friends "a Merry Christmas.” Today—you know everybody rides In automobiles, taxis, or aeroplanes, uses bottled pasteurized milk, eats canned frutts and delicatessen foods gets music and religion out of the air; has amusements furnished by others; insists on a ertf.ln brand jof cigars or cigarettes, but will drink Retpinol give* quick relief from rasping, hacking, racking cough*.
