Nobody’s Business CEE McGEE— I isli Tails Uncle Joe dropped In yesterday to! swap the time oi day with me. He took a seat in my best chair where he felt sure that he would miss the spittoon, whjah he did, as the lino leum rug Will show. He is not a long distance witter by any means, and really should not chew, indoors. After borrowing a match and aj cigar to smoke "t^ow and 1 a little | later on,’* he got started on fish.' fishes and fishermen. He explained that he had not ketched anything much so far except a few brim in his basket, but the signs would be /right next week for trout and all other fish, so he said. I will let him finish the spiel: ‘•Pishin’ is a real art. old boy. Ij useter fish in Alabama and was i called the best fisherman in the; whole state. 1 have fished with Topi Heflin and several other governors ; and me and him fished 2 weeks with a vice-president and 7 congressmen from New York, “I remember once when We set a trot line on the Tom Biggy river: one night, we ketched so many fish! on it that while we was taking them off of the hooks and throwing them in our boat, they filled the boat so full till it sunk, and we al most got drowned and the fish all got away. "I ketched a carp one night that weighed 104 pounds and when I cut him open, he had a good sized pig in his stunrmick that was still alive, and me and my family bad roast pig and broiled fish for 2 weks frojn that ketch. I have made as high as 25 dollars per hour pulling trouts out of the water,” “They had some fish in Alabama that could crawl around in the woods just like lizards. I watched two of these fishes onoe come tip tout of the water and erawl 600 yards to a blackberry patch, and noe of them would climb up a big briar loaded with blackberries and pull It over so’s his partner could bite the fruit off, and he never swallowed a single one of them— just piled ’em up in a pile and di vided them 1 by 1 when they got through, and then they walked on back and jumped Into the water.” “I ketched 2 eels one Sunday morning that weighed 55 pounds each, and they were riot-near grown. My favorite sport fish was the gar fish. They had ’em out there with snouts 6 or 8 feet long. They used these snouts (that is—the lumber men did) for cross-cut saws. The game warden finally made me leave the state, a* it looked like I was go ing -to ketch ’em all and ruin the cpuntryi that’s why 1 moved ou( litre. Oood-bye. Come to see us some time after supper." * Thoughtless Thoughts. The brewers say that if Unde Sam will let them make beer that they can put 2,000,Quo to work mighty quick. Yes, but what is going to become of the 3,545,888 bootleg gers and the 765,000 prohibition of ficer* and rum-runners that will be thrown out of Jobs? Answer me that, Mr, Capone, Did-Jer ever notice that the men and women who attend W C. T. U. lectures are not the persons who need to be talked to concerning the terriblene.ss of boose? The way to get the right bunch out is to pull off a cock-fight or a dog-fight Jus before the prohibition speech is t< be made and then lock the doors. Cotton Letter. New York, March 23.—Due to tin activity in cotton handkerchiefs am wash rags caused by the bonu loan*, cdmbed yarns were verj strong at mid-day in sympathy with the boll weevil emergence in Okla homa. Probable thunder in Texas had a dia-quleting effect on brown Sheeting# and some further curtail ment in moose-golf is being antici pated. Miami reports skimpier bath ing suits, heoce the decline in silks and satins, but the shorts are still in evidence where pretty flggers prevail. We suggest more work and less play to make Jack. (N. B. Mr. Melon is still president.) Below you will find a list of the great events of the year 19 and 31 up to the present writing; 1. Hoover vetoed the bonus bill. 2. Democrats over-rode his veto. 8. Hoover vetoes the Muscle Shoals bill. 4. Much rejoicing amongst: the millionaires. 8. Hoover vetoes the Drought Re lief bill. 6. Belgium don't understand Mr! Hoover. 7. Congress adjourned. 8. Much fejolctng amongst the people. Eggs are now so cheap they ain't fit to eat. Being in the egg-produc ing business (in a big way: we have 14 hens and 6 roosters) we are de pressed. We multiplied our egg re ceipts for last week by our feed for wardings and nest-loadlngs and found that our percentage of losses to our probable profits (if eggs were twice as high) and discovered that our poultry was a 45 per cent great er liability than were their assets, counting the 6 hew that took 141 setting after laying 8 eggs. (For sate: a nice 2-pen hennery, with roosters to match. All pedigreed stock, but badly mixed.) Rutherford Politics Beginning To Simmer Democrat* Will Meet April t To Nominate Mayor And Aldermen. RutherfordUm.—J. B Miller, chair man of the RutherfordUm Demo cratic executive committee. Issued a call to the Democrats to meet in a convention in the court house hen Friday night, April 3. at 8 o'clock, for the purpose. of aonUnatlqg uj mayor and four town aldermen. Interest In municipal politics lt> growing. The town now has a mut ed or cltlaens ticket, which Is com posed of three Democrats and two Republicans. Two years ago the Democrat* met in convention and put out a ticket. Soon afterwards the eitteens, with many Republicans leading In the movement, put out a mixed ticket and won. At present the city officials of Rutherfordton are; Mayor F. W. H. Logan; coupe Ilmen. R. R. Flack, J. L. Robinson, J. H. Carpenter and B. D Wilson. The mayor and latter named are Republicans while the other three are Democrats. It Is likely that a mixed ticket will be put out again.

It permits greater power in proportion to weight, better balancing of crank shaft loads, improved bearing lubrication, more efficient cooling and enables Essex motors to out last low-speed engines. Essex introduces fine-csr style and Super-Six smoothness to the iowprioed field. It is strongly built to assure lasting satisfaction and enduring dependability. It challenges the performance of any six and matches the econ omy of cars most noted for low operating cost.
