We wish to call your attention to the fact that it is and nas oeen our custom to charge five cents per Hue for resolutions of respect, cards of thanks and obituary notices, arter one death notice nas Been published. This will be strictly adhered to. FRIDAY, .JULY 1931 TWINKLES Tomorrow is the Fourth—the one day in the year which nay outclass Sunday as a day of highway slaughter. Ke nember thut as you go motoring. Shelby civic clubs should gladly cooperate in the move nent to restore an evening outgoing mail here. No outgoing nail, east and south, after b in the evening until 7 the next Horning, will work a handicap on business in this section. Alexander the Great wept because there wore no more worlds to conquer, but the flight around the world in less han 10 days by Post and Gatty would have sounded like the maginative raving of an insane man to the conqueror. “Much Canning In County This Year.” informs a head ine in our favorite tri-weekly. And with the State refus ng to work prisoners with sentences shorter than 60 days it ippears as if there will be right much of it going on for the •emainder of the year. Calvin Coolidge writes in his column that any nation vhich can weather an economic storm as America has been loing is in very sound condition and dependable. But we vonder if the former president had realized that it is hard ‘or a nation to crawl out on a window sill and leap for the ■idewalk from the fourteenth floor. Various cities and towns in the Carolinas have been minting out recently that the heat hasn’t been as unbear able In their cities as in others. That line of talk may be lassified as A-l publicity by the chamber of commerce, but o our way of thinking it has been plenty hot everywhere in he two States. Rev. L. B. Hayes today takes over the duties as presi dent of the Shelby Rotary club, and knowing him as Shelby loes it Is accepted knowledge that the civic organization is ntering upon another good year of community service and he strengthening of friendships between men who are in egral factors in the life of the city. An Eastern Carolina newspaper hears of a man being Jlled in a mica mine not far from Shelby and remarks that lown that way they did not know there were such mines in his section. But for this we may be thankful: It was not *ne of these eastern papers which, hearing of a new industry ip this way. would immediately start clamoring for taxes to >e taken over their lands and slapped on the industry up tere. BISHOP OPENS CAMPAIGN USHOP CANNON opened up his 1932 presidential cam paign while on a visit to Charlotte this week. And, as sual, the good bishop leaves several gaps in his statements nd declarations which are a bit puzzling. If the Democrats will only nominate McAdoo in 1932. « declares, “the whole prohibition question will be lifted ut of the campaign,” Looking over that statement, The lharlotte Observer very aptly remarked, “but just how the omination of McAdoo could bring that to pass is not ex lained.” Another puzzle, if you care to dig deeper into the state lents of the politically-minded churchman, is this: If the ishop is against a candidate will it aid or injure the candi ate? Or, to reverse it, if the bishop is for a candidate, how dll that candidate's future be swayed? PEACHES. VEGETABLES HERE ». BELMONT MAN has'called the attention of The Char lotte Observer to the fact that fine peaches are grown ear Belmont, not so far distant from Charlotte, as well as t the Sandhills. The Observer has been an ardent booster f the Sandhill peach section and is to be commended for hat interest in the peach area, nevertheless Belmont is giv n proper credit. In that connection, it might be noted that utsiders are learning this year that many things other than otton are produced in Cleveland county. Widely known at cotton county, the average visitor to this section appears urprised to see anything else growing. A visit to the semi eekly curb market in Shelby will reveal that some mighty ine peaches and fruits are produced by the farmers of Cleve md county. And, although they were an oddity to a certain xtent hereabouts a decade or two back. Cleveland house ’ives are this year “putting up” more English peas than ver before. k All the Cleveland county eggs aren’t being toted in one asket this year. ANOTHER INVESTIGATION T SEEMS TO BE an open season for investigations inspir ; ed for political purposes. George Pritchard, overwhelmingly defeated tor the United States Senate by Josiah W.

Now we have a new one on our hands. District Attorney Jonas nominated Attorney J. M. Hoyle of Gastonia, for a position as assistant district attorney. Congressman Bulwinkle, who defeated Mr. Jonas, soon let it be known that he would not indorse the Hoyle appoint ment until an investigation was made. The new phase de veloped when Neil C. Perry, World war veteran, suggested that when he talked to Mr. Hoyle, the Jones nominee, about a job as prohibition agent Mr. Hoyle intimtfted that he might endorse Perry if the latter were willing to do a good turn in turn by contributing so much annually to the Republican campaign expenses. Mr. Jfoyle said it ’t’warn’t so’ and Mr. Perry said ‘t'is”—and there you are. First thing you know we may have enough investiga tions going on to relieve the unemployment situation. SYNTHETIC FISHING WE’VE HAD OUR synthetic golf, and our miniature this and miniature that, and being a town that is fond of fishing Shelby may be considerably interested in the an nouncement that ^synthetic fishing is the latest thing. “In Eos Angeles,” informs The New York Times, where things move faster, trout fishing has been brought into the heart of town, so that a man may do his fishing on the way home from the office. A trout pool stocked with fish is now open for business on Wiltshire Boulevard, a fash ionable Los Angeles thoroughfare. ‘‘Already three 'synthetic fishing clubs' have opened within a half hour's drive of midtown. “It is an economical diversion; you pay nothing if you catch nothing and only 35 cents for each fish taken. The fish may be cleaned, cooked and eaten on the premises, or tidily packed up and taken home. Miniature golf, already on the wane, must, feel sorely the competition of this innova tion.” STRIB'S LAST BIG CHANCE TONIGHT THE STATE OF GEORGIA, incubator of athletic champions, may have another champion, _ and, again, may‘not. When tonight’s Schmeling-Stribling battle is over, rif W. L. (Young) Stribling, the Georgia boy, is not the victor and does not win his victory in a decisive manner, he will be through in the big time* fight game. The bout tonight lacks the color and glamor of other major boxing matches. The young German, Schmeling, has not been an idol since becoming champion because he won the crown once worn by Tunney—and by Dempsey, Willard, et al—on a foul. Nevertheless he is a fine physical specimen, better than the average boxer and can take plenty of punish ment, or stand the gaff, as they say in sporting circles. If Stribling tonight is the Stribling that banged Kisko all over the ring, or the Stribling that floored Scotty then the Georgia boy will be the heavyweight champion tomorrow morning, and a colorful one at that. But if he is the Stribling who boxed and danced and clinched with Sharkey and did like wise in many of his other big bouts, then he will be licked and no great number of people will be sorry. Stribling hasn’t a peer as a boxer, but only upon rare occasions has he ex hibited real fight. The fans who pay the fiddler desire fight when they go to a boxing match; they’re noj^ looking for fancy dancing and clever footwork about the ring. That’s why Dempsey, the Manassa man mauler, could draw the crowds; he vaulted, in like a tiger at the first bell and was just one lunging, hammering mass of battle until it was over. Stribling has his last big chance tonight; he has muffed more opportunities in big bouts and been given another chance than has any other fighter in the history of the game. He has shown that he can fight when he forgets caution, turns loose and lets go. The South naturally hopes it will be the fighting Stribling tonight, not the clever box er. If such is not the case, the Georgia boy’s future is fixed; he is headed back, and headed for good, to the tank towns where he may bowl over one palooka after another. Tonight is the turning point, the last big opportunity for him. If he comes through, another name will be added to the Georgia list which is headed by Bobby Jones and Ty Cobb. If he does not, it is the beginning of the trek down the hill on which there is po road leading back. TiTStHt EVER!
