Raleigh.—G o v e r n o r Gardner thinks the lire at home program in North Carolina will be manifest when North Carolinians retjurn to the good old days when every mem ber of what was then called the family, but now would be an insur rection, cut apples and peaches, then spread them in the sun on the house top and dried them for the next year's supply. His excellency has seen all the evidences that the state rs interest ed in living at home. The money crop acreage has decreased about 28 per cent in two years and the food crops have gone up correspondingly. The improvement has been nation ally norated. If Governor Gardner should hop into county wide promi nence it would be largely on account of his live at home go,-pci. And he has r-f-ached it in season and out. Today he is recalling the ancient days. He remembers how- he peeled and cut fruits in season, dried them in the torrid sun and next spring was growing big and capacious on the pies that were wrapped inside fruits that, carried all the flavors and pep that the figs and dates of the orient retain in their drying processes. He thinks a hardier, not to mention happier, race would spring up if children of today would dry apples and peaches, in these summer suns and save them for next year. Even in the elder day housewives managed to get an oc casional dollar from the sale of these dried fruits. But Governor Gardner is a sentimental fellow-. He wishes to see North Carolina fight and defeat calamity by living at home and working every day in the year at the trade. The crops this year are tremend ous. Fruits and vegetables are pil ed up in the market places with few takers at living prices. There will be need for the driers and canners now. Not everybody can do a fine job of canning, but anybody can cut and dry fruits and when every body does it Mr. Gardner is sure that North Carolina will be living at home. His excellency would like to take a squint at a house top full of dried apples and peaches. Believes Daniels Will Gte In Race Charlotte Paper Looks For Raleigh Editor To Run In 1932. Charlotte News.—Mr. Daniels says that he has no desire for public office, this being incident to the rather excited talk that has been indulged lately in regard to his prospective candidacy for Governor. This attitude of the Raleigh pub lisher is typical of almost all those who have a hankering for public place, it is the psychological slant to aocept. And one may be ever so intentionally sincere about it ir. assftming this relation. It is possible for a man to feel within himself, sometimes rationally and sometimes, of course, unjustifiably, that the clamor for his services are so gener al an insistent and that he is so peculiarly needed in some high po sition of responsibility that he must forego any personal disinclination about the matter and treat it solely as a stern doty. We are not proposing to put a final finger of diognosis upon Mr. Daniels motives in the premises. I We cling, however, rather tenaci ously to the notion that whatever may be his personal desires about the issue, he is going to run for Governor. his Preference. That pretty girl over there selling Christmas toys said to a young man who stopped to admire her booth: "What do you think of my scheme of decoration—holly leaves and ber ries over laurel," "Well, to be frank," said the young man, "I'd much prefer mis tletoe over yew." Quality Furniture On Easy Terms. Phone 592. Shelby, N. C. Nobody’s Business •r#v* «st *%« 6£E McGEE— A Weeks Vacation. • Sixth Day.» . . . We have ail kinds of folks a: i the beach now-a-days. Some o!; them go in bathing, others go in! swimming, and still others going in a-washing. Saw one guy parad ing toward the surf just before noon ; ;with a cake of laundry soap in on" hand and a towel in the other hand 1 and two wash-rags in the other hand, and he teemed bent on clean ing up. ... .1 felt terribly sorry lor a young lady of about 47 summers and 48 winters this afternoon. She was jumping the waves near me and her bathing suit busted in the wnuv place. After that, she let the waves jump her. She became very calm, turned a dull pink in the face, walked backwards towards the chore where nobody happened to be and when she got to a point where the water wa-> only knee deep, she sat down. When I left the ocean, she was still sitting—evidently awaiting the arrival of dear old nightfall, . . , I did my part ‘at the urgent request of my wife i to absorb some ultra violet rays for my health t> sake during this vacation-apd a a consequence, my back is blister ed from one end to the other.' In stead of getting a Miami sun-tan, I got a blast-furnace red hot. I have rubbed it with ail kinds of suggested remedies, and now t am peeling off like an irt.h potato. After this experience. I am going to be perfectly satisfied with moth er nature's hide, be it whatsoever color she has left it from day to day. I have to (nearly) stand up to sleep—except when I try it with my nose embedded in the pillow. . , . I saw the fisherman fetch a bucketful of live crabs to our “stopping place" last night, They were crawling and squirming all over one another and looked like anything else except someth og “fitten" to eat. I later saw the cooks undressing those birds. It seemed only a case of pinching off their tails and hulling them from stem to stern. What they pluck ed from these string-haltered, spid er-legged turkles was good-looking white meat. They were brought to the table at dinner all dolled up in their own shells, baked to a nut; brown. I thought of them as they' had been and I thought of them a’* 1 they were—and being perfectly sober, I a’e 2 of them and liked them. . . . .We will have to pack up to- | morrow and leave for home and | ============-- ' hard work, It's n pity that ikioi folks CHti t be rich folks for about 2 months every year and enjoy a stay at a place like this. If I eould borrow only 4fi dollars. I'd stay another week, but nearly everybody I talk to about money- have either been piddling with the stock market | dr trying to grow cotton,. so my case ts hope leu; So far we've had the times of our lives, but we ain’t paid our bills vet. and I believe t feel my blood pressure coining back on me Mood-night till tomorrow. 'Seventh Day • Well, folks—our vacation is Just about over The net results of cur week's stay at the beach is a sun-burnt, terribly blistered back, a flat pocket book. ; better ap petite. a dislike lor bull dogs, anti a love tor baked flounders The firit thing 1 end this morning was have th?' filling.sta* tion fill my gas tank The said tank ha i a capacity of 11 gallons I had 4 gallons in the Unit; before he put any in, but somehow or‘other, he pttnrped in 12 additional gamuts. 1 am truly thankful that he did not bust my container . , The land-ladies at our Inn consented to take a check for our board and lodging Thai wa nice In them. I woke up tin. morning worrying about things back home. When v.e left, we forgot to phone the electric light, folks and the wa ter meter people and the gas works that we would be out of town for a few day.:, and now we will possi bly have to pay at the same rates that we would of had -to pay had we stayed at. home But. here's hoping they'll take the meter’s word for it.' . ,1 saw a sad thing this after noon. Just uoalings and oodlmgs of pretty girls were parading and walk ing and strolling up and down the strand —dressed in those big-legged beach pajamas, and believe It. or NOT. an austm car . ran up Miss Katy Diddo pajamas and frighten ed her into buying a Flit gun. Aus tin.t is bad, but personally I'm opposed to those pajamas—-when 1-piece bathing cults can be had for less money . ■ . .Folks don t talk politics much at the beaches. I asked a man down there how lie liked Hoover He replied. "I don't think I every tried any of it.” He thought Hoover vas a soft drink. Another guy war approached on the tariff bill, bul he had never heard of it I tried to find out how many legislators were sent up (not to the pern from the county our beach was, located! in, and the old fanner who was peddling tuud-turkles at that time told mo (hat he dldent. think his Bounty had a legislator at all. We are packed up now and just as soon as we can get our tn tallmcnt plan cranked up we 11 be on our way Take if from me. folks, if you want to have a real pleVant, cool, satisfying vacation, go to. ihe seashore, take along a few every-day clothes, a bathing suit, and nil the money you can get, and the water and the breezes will do the rest —cure.
