Alien wrapped | nne long iimb around another In his (Office at tho court house here Mon ; day morning and delivered an ob servation that upholds his reputa tion as a sleuth. The gathering in the office was diseasing the double murder In Cabarrus county. The mutilated bodies of the 73-year-old Starnes woman and her 40-year-old daugh ter had been lound Saturday morn ing and the killing was still the chief topic of conversation over the state. All ethers had expressed their opinions and beliefs when the sher iff broke in: “I believe I would question the man on whose land they lived and [who found them before I would Co anything else,’’ he said. A little later in the day the body of that man was found shot to death, an apparent suicide. There may be no connection between the two tragedies, but when the news of the suicide reached Shelby those who heard him instantly recalled the sheriff’s hunch. An Ardent Dry. •‘Others may change their views,” remarked a Shelby citizen as he read his paper Tuesday morning, "but Judge Yates Webb always has be^n and always will be opposed to liquor.” A dispatch from Asheville quoted the federal jurist In a charge to the grand jury as saying: "Li quor never has obeyed a law of pod or man, and never will. The only way to deal with liquor Is to absol utely outlaw It.” Hoey Oratory. Anent the arguments of the law yers in the King trial at Lancaster, Dr. O. Walter Barr writes the fol lowing in The Yorkville Enquirer of Shelby's silver-tongued orator: “Everybody was on the qul Vive to hear Clyde R. Hoey, whose reputa tion as an orator extends over into South Carolina after saturating his own Tarheel state. “He Justified all the plaudits that had preceded his appearance. Prom the first sentence, his voice was that of a tragedian, and his did.lon that of a prose poet. “What difference does it make In this case?' was his question about this, that and the other .detail of the Btate’s proof, and it was more than an oratorical question, but yet not exacting a proposition posed for demonstration. The whole speech was great forensic oratory, but per haps better oratory than logic— which makes it not of any less ef fect on the average Jury, of course. And certainly Lawyer Hoey looks more like an orator than all the dozen other lawyers in the case lumped together—he even keeps his hair long enough to make gestures with it. He held his audience crowd ing tho Lancaster court room every one of the 45 minutes he addressed the Jury half facing the body of the room. The peroration was a master piece of oratory.” Night Baseball? Reports about town have it that Shelby may witness night baseball ere the end of the summer. If enough interest in the favorite pas time is shown, there Is a possibility, it Is said, that lighting equipment may be Installed In the city park for the play of the Cleveland Cloth mill club.

A Modern Busine.s*. 1 Red” Newman, Shelby’s jack-of all-trades including -wise-cracking, still hits on all cylanders. ‘'Guess you’re still successful ana making plenty of money, Red?” a triend asked him on the street. And Red, who never gives any outward show of depression or hard times, replied: “Yep, I’m still suc cessful, but you're all wet about that money-making business: a real success these days doesn’t have to make money—he’s deserving of a write-up in the American magazine if he manages to scrape up enough groceries for three meals per.” !

His statement follows: ‘“I have never been Interested directly or Indirectly In the efforts of Colonel Mann. ‘“If Colonel Mann is a Republi can. he and his follower—and I know of only one In North Caro lina and that Is Mr. DePriest— should put forth their efforts to up build Instead of trying to destroy the Republican party. “ ‘I think that Herbert Hoover ha proved himself as president, the equal of the Great Lincoln or the Mighty Roosevelt. “‘I shall lend my aid to do what I can to secure a solid delegation to the next Republican national convention for the renomlnatlon of President Hoover.’” G. O. P. Silent Here. Mr. DePriest'a remarks about the unpopularity of Mr. Hoover with the rank and file of Republicans In the South has failed so far to draw a retort from Republican leaders In Cleveland county. They have been at “outs" for some time with Mr. DePrlest and he with them. In days gone by Mr. DePrlest and an older group of Republicans had charge of party affairs In this county. In more recent years Mr. H. Clay Cox, Deputy Marshal P. B. Hamrick and others have taken over the reins. Mr. DePrlest became a bit riled last year when In his opinion the cen sus jobs were not handed to what he termed "old line Republicans who had worked In the Interest of the party for many years.” Some of the new party rulers In the county have been seen In con versation with him since he attain ed state-wide prominence recently In Joining Col. Mann’s antl-Hoo ver forces, but publicly Mr. DePrlest has taken no back water and the officials of the party In the county have not chirped. Presumably, how ever. such outbreaks aro not relish ed In party circles and replies to hta views as published In The Star and The Observer might bring on more talk. As It Is everyone appears to be sitting steady In the Republican boat, but political observers antici pate some fireworks from the New ells, Whitener and the old group of fire-eating campaigners should the new Republican leader attempt to keep Jake Newell from getting the Republican nomination for the United State* senate. North Caro lina Republicans have the fortunate habit of washing their dirty jin+n In the privacy of their own party, yet the CoL Mann fight on Hoover and the announced cooperation of DePrlest causes Democratic cam paigners to hope for a little less privacy. District Attorney Receiving His Pay I>onbt At first As Ts Whether Recess Appointee OonM Ob tsin Compensation. Washington, May 13.~There has been some doubt here as to whether or not Charles A. Jonas, who was given a recess appointment as Unit ed States district attorney, could le gally receive compensation. Even officials oS the department of jus tice were uncertain. But, an inves tigation this week shows that he is being paid regularly, and the pay master is clearly within the law. Mr. Jonas' nomination was sent to the senate before congress adjourned, but it was not acted upon. The rule is, that, in such cases, the appointee accepts a recess appointment with the understanding he may not get his salary, as congress nrffy not ap prove. Thoma.-, J. Harkins, whom Mr. Jonas succeeded, tendered his resig nation, but it did not take effect until Marcii fifth, the day after congress quit. That fact gives Mr. Jonas his remuneration, and, it was explained at the department, he has been paid for March and April. Lily Mill Mention Of the Week’s News May li.—Mr. and Mrs. J. D.

E. “Uncle Happy” Pinson of Platte Center, Nebraska—known in tbe frontier days as “Devil's Arrow.” Mr. Pinson is one of the colorful figures of the old west.- He rode on the plains with Buffalo Bill, and knew Jesse James and his brother Frank. You see him in the photograph standing beside his 1912 Ford with tiro Riverside tires, just removed, after giving ten years of service and covering more than 40,000 miles. Mr. Pinson paid #1&£5 each for his Riversides in 1920. You can buy Riversides today, in the Ford size for only ♦4-54, and they are guaranteed WITHOUT LIMIT. Mr. Pinson’s endorsement of Riversides came to us unsolicited and was not bought at a price. ' Mr. Pinson’s Ri Lasted 10 Y over territory What chance have “comparison charts” you see in the papers and magazines against evidence like this! Who cares about charts showing “Rub ber volume, weight, and the like,” anyhow! We could build a tire bigger, heavier and wider than any on the market (bigger even than Riversides) —but that alone wouldn’t give you satisfaction. Its mileage you want in a tire and these “paper comparisons” don’t tell how far a tire will run. We’ll match Riversides... ON THE ROAD...against ANY tire made and we’ll beat it in price. Ask Mr. Pinson! Riverside Tires are one of the best known in America. They have been sold for 19years. They are made by one of the largest tire companies in the world. They are built to the most rigid speci fications known. They are the finest quality it is possible to produce. They are backed by the most daring tire guarantee ever written. And they sell for less than any first-quality nationally advertised tire on the market! These sound like sensational claims. But they’re facts. And Montgomery Ward & Co. stands back of every word. Note this—the nationally advertised tires offered to you at the same prices as Riversides are not the first-quality tires of the manufacturers who make them—but their second-quality tires—put on the market to meet Riverside competition. So always compare qualities as well as prices. The table at the right lists some of the best known first-quality tires that do compare with Riversides in quality—you compare the prices!
