Drowning Person
May Sink Dozen
Times Or Once
> How many times does a drown
ling person sink?
Contrary to popular belief, vie
| ilnve of drowning may sink onto or
a half-dozen time;. depending
largely upon the buoyancy of their
! bodies or tlie weight of the clot h -
l ing worn. Few realize that the pro
!\rrbial "three” hai nothing what*
| ever'to do with a drowning per
sons chances. Sometimes fright
I causes the victim to faint when the
j body strikes the crater’s surface.
I That person may never rise to the
top if the bod” lias no buoyancy.
On the other hand, many indivi
duals. even after losing consciou -
I ness in the water, may bobble un
j and down six or seven times befor.
f they are drowned.
Regardless of how many times t.
body rises to the surface or disap
pears, re. cues should be carefully
performed, lest the victim pulls the
rescuer under with him in his
struggle against death. Once
ashore, artificial respiration, prop
erly applied, often will save the
victim's life. ,
Those are some of tile important
tilings every swimmer chotful know j
Whenever you think of your own!
importance in the affairs of Shelby1
just remember that a few years!
after your death your memory will I
linger in a very few places. i

second time and Julius L. Smith
the step-father, assumed the bur
dens of the head of the family and
opened the wn.v for an education
for young odus.
After finishing in the local
schools, Odus began his career as a
farmer. But during President Mc
Kinleys administration, the price
of farm crops dropped far below
the cost of production;
By one year's labor. Mull prp
dured four bales of cotton which
he sold for *98 67. or 4 1-2 cents a
P°und. The distress and hopeless
ness produced by four-rent cotton
proved valuable to him for it
caused him to determine to go to
college
wintt a high school gradual>' und
possessing a Ilrst grade certificate.
Mull left the cotton field for the
school room and taught hi the
Cleveland county public schools at
a month during the summer of
18011 and Rt Behvood Institute,
from which lie had graduated dur
ing the 'school year 1898-99
lii the fall of 1899 he entered
Wake Forest college, completing
the four-year course in throe
rears, graduating in 1902 with an
A B. degree and the distinction of
‘Magna Cum Landeor an aver
age of over 97 1-2 for his entire
college course He obtained a law
degree In 1903 ufter completing the
two-year law course in one year. He
was an active orator during his
college career.
Mull had entered poll tics in 1900
during the white supremacy cam
paign nnd he has evinced political
Interest ever since. He became a
law partner with th late Judge
James Xj. Webb of the state super
ior court bench, and his brother,
the present Judge E, Yates Webb,
nf the United States district court
While Mull has never manifested
particular Interest Is holding office
himself he has promoted the politi
cal ambitions of his friends, and
himself served Cleveland county in
the state legislatures of 1907, 1919
tnd 1929
He managed Clyde R. Iloey’s
campaign tor congress in 1918 to
succeed T.. Yates Webb, who held
the office a number of years—re
signing to be on the federal bench
-and was in charge of the Gard
ner campaign In 1928
He has for years been chairman
>f the Democratic executive com-;
nittee of Cleveland county and was!
named state chairman In 1928 and
■e-elected In 1930.
After serving a year as executive,

| take a look at the chimneys, fur

j chimneys and flues of soot and
' look for defects through which
. spark might pass and find lodg
| ment in the ceilings and under the

j ace when it comes to fire hazards
; More fires result from defective
! chimneys, furnaces. stoves, and
pipes than any other single cause.
It is also matter of record that
tlti pei cent of the fires of tile na
tion, occur in the Tiomes of its peo
ple. Therefore, it would or wise to
lie especially careful in checking
over any possible causes of flrr in
tlie homes of Shelby
Fires are far reaching, and el
feet, not only the Immediate places
burned, but people as well. For in
stance should a place of business
be burned it means th&t the people
employed will be thrown out ofj
work for an indefinite period of;
time
It it- u matter ol record that In
tlic case of fires in business estab
lish men.* about 4ti tier cent of the
businesses never re-engage In busi
ness They pass out of existence
altogether antt along with them go
the men and women employed who
must seek work elsewhere.
Just at this time, When there is
so large a number of flic working
class out of employment due to the:
depression, it Is even more Import
ant than ever to use precautions to:
prevent fire!', so that tile army of
{he unemployed may not be in- j
creased. As It is, the question of t
coring for the people during the,
winter will be a problem. a art j
should not be allowed to become a!
[Krpater problem and burden on the

enough to still hold jobs,
A little precaution now may mcar
