If
Shelby Star At
WakeAfterHe
Is Moved About
Carolina and Wuke Fort'st both
wanted ‘•Milky” Oold, former Shel
by high and Oak Hidge football star,
on their grid elevens. After consid-j
erable shitting, Oold wound up at
Wake Forest and played the first
game with the freshman eleven
there.
Wade Ison, Charlotte News spent
! writer, tells of the fight for Gold a*
follows:
‘‘Caddell, Frank Packard, P;,t
Miller, and yours truly were talk*
lug about snitching athletes over ex
Wake Forest the day mentioned
above. They told how Zeno Wall
and some of the other Shelby boys
who were Fro&h there bad coaxed
Milky Gold to enter the l>eacou in
stitution.
" And would you believe it,’ the
Wake men chimed in, 'lie's already
at Carolina.’
It’s 411 Over Now.
’‘Fifteen minutes later Zeno, and
Kinsey, the latter a former track
and football star at Wake, blew In
to the gym, pasting by the Coaches'
office
‘ Milky Gold was with them. Five
minutes later, a well known Caro
lina alumnus rolled up in a cloud
of dust.
"Out went the order to Kinsey to
get two men to watch that fellow
"They, must have done then
work well, for we sec by the papers
that Gold played In the first frosh
game at Wake Forest.
"That means that lie can t com
pete on any other college team lh
the south.”

The following from Hie Green
ville News will be of interest to
those who saw' the Duke-South
Carolina game in Columbia last
Saturday:
"If any South Carolina sports
writer were to compare Earl Clary
with the late George Gipp, con
sidered by Knute Roekne the per
fect football player. he probably
would draw some razzes.
“But when a man who played
with the famous Four Horsemen of

Carolina coach, that Clary reminds
him more of Gipp than any other
back he's ever seen—well that's
different.

Nobody’s
Business
Hy GEE McGEE
Let’s Do Some Supposing.
, 1.—Suppose a man hires you to j
run his store. Me promises to pay I
you for running his store. Suppose
you deride to run H on the “poll- I
tlral plan"—just like our cities and
counties and states are run.
2. Suppose you start to work.
Suppose you think you need an as
sistant store keeper. Suppose you
hire your nephew. Suppose you go
along for 3 month and by poor man
agement and loose methods, vou
nnd that you are entirely out of
money. Suppose you go over to the
bank and sign your bosses name to
a note and get all the money you
nfed.
3. —Suppose you decide to build
3 more stories on the building
Suppose you haven't got the mo
ney. Suppose you and your helpers
vole bonds to build the addition.
Suppose you tell the owner to go
to thunder If he objects. Suppose
you increase the pay of all your
clerks and hire assistants by the
score. (Kinfolks, of course.)
4. —Suppose you keep on borrow- j
ing money on 'your boss’ credit, j
Suppose he asks you to reduce ex-!
peases, cut salaries. atop leaks,
waste and grail. Suppose you don’t
pay any attention to him. but in
stead—Just keep on with your ex
travagance. Suppose you and your
helpers decide to put up andther
store. Suppose you go back to the
bank an dusc your boss’ credit and
get the money.
5—Suppose you hire 25 or 30
buildings Inspectors and 7 or 8
plumbing Inspectors, and a like
number of time-keepers and mate
rial checkers. Suppose you begin to
overcharge your customers In or
der to get money to operate on—
iN. B. The boss Is supposed to re
present the tax-payer, that is the
customers)—Suppose you hire some
body to do your own and loaf. Sup
pose your customers get tired of
being over-charged. Suppose there
they can patronise, and are forced
to keep on dealing with you. '
6—suppose when you need more
money, you Increase the price of
everything. Suppose when you find
yourself head-over heels in debt
you force your customers to raise
the money to keep you s-golng,
building to, adding on, hiring more,
paving double wages, favorfhg
your kinfolks, and trippln along
toward bankruptcy—And then sup
pose the boss finally musters up
"innards” enough to fire you and
your whole she-bang. And now you
can stop supposing. And unless our
present public officers who have
charge of us and our tax money
show a spirit of economy at a
very early date, and use bustpess
judgment Instead of rotten politi
cal schemes to further their own In
terests, the public Is going to rise
up in convention and spew them
out and start over. Suppose we try
something like this the next time
we get ready to vote? But let's sup
pose they-11 learn some sense be
fore we do this. Aw, shucks—It ain't
nice to suppose.
Down South Versus Up North
I am glad I live In the south. As
a rule, we are mostly poor folks
down here, but when hard times
come, we don't freeze to death for
lack of fuel, as the sun furnishes
almost enough to keep us warm.
Cotton and other stuff are cheap,
but rent Is low, and we are all good
to one another.
Union labor is a fine thing when
times are good and work Is plen
tiful. Wc happen not to have much
union labor In the south, therefore
we can adjust ourselves to a bad
situation without a fight. Union la
bor won't stand for a wage cut
regardless of business conditions;
they’d rather see half their brothers
turned off and loafing—than per
nrit their wages to be cut so more
folks can work.
It will take the north 8 years to
get through the depression, but we
ran make It in only 1 year—mean
ing. of course, after conditions be
gin to Improve. Southern people
vull together belter thgn folks in
other sections of the country.. We
are not blessed (?) with foreigners
vho spare forth randtcalism and stir
up strife. Wc have our ups and
downs, but we soon drift back to
reason and are willing to begin ah
over again.
Cheap crops have kept us from
having much money to rattle, but
ive have plenty to eat and plenty to
.veer, and a man can almost live out
doors In the south for 10 months
n the year and not suffer very
mtich The north Is waiting for
good times to return; the south is
making good'ttmes hurry on. If our
men can’t get a job at $10.00 a day,
most of them are willing *« work
Un order that their families might
have food and clothes) at $8., or $6.
sr *4 or $2. or even II 00 If neces
flary.
The north has all ol the mo
ney, it is true, but it is in the hands
of only a few families. Tfrey have
poor folks up there in good timet
and now they have them by the
millions. The reason the north has
so much money is due to the fact
that we send them ail of ours for
automobiles, radios, clothing, shoes,
hats, clocks, and almost everything
else we get except turnip-greens
and poke sallet.
Some folks up North are wonder
Ing what the poor Southern folk.s
are going to do this winter with
cotton only 6 cents a pound. They
need not worry about us: If we
can keep our factories running, and
we can; and cut out installment
buying (for a few weeks, and live
within our means, which is easy—
if wc try. we will get along fine.
Our bread lines are going to be
few and short and if the folks work
ing for us see that we ain't making
any money, they will agree to work
for less without thrbwlng any
bombs. The north can’t do a tiling
till poverty forces union labor to
work for what industry can afford
to pay and keep running.

Fine Barley Field
On Ellenboro Farm
Mr. Hamrick Gets Ten Tons On
One And a Quarter Acres.
Worth $175.
I .
• Special to The Star.i
. Ellenboro, Sept. 1.—With a yield
of ten tom of quality barley, oat
I and vetch hay produetd on 1 1-1
acres or land by J. L. Hamrick, jr.,
of Ellenboro, this past spring, farm
ers should plan to sow during this
menth a winter hay crop to be har
vested next spring when feed may
be needed for livestock.
! Young Hamrick who grew the
crop for one of his agricultural pro
jects required with the course in
agriculture which he took in the
local school last year sowed a mix
ture of two bushels of oats, one
bushel of barley and 30 pounds of
winter vetch on the plot of land
which is rich and well inoculated
for vetch by the growing of this
crop on the land during previous
years. He applied six tons of ma
nure to take the place of fertilizer
Then, another factor in his success
was that the land was limed six
years ago.
Judging from the price of selling
one load of this hay the ten tons
were worth a total of $200.00, but
his father states that the crop has
been worth at least $175.00.
Term. No. 6 bearless barley and
Fulghum oats should be used in the
mixture, and a mixture of from lh
to two bushels of each oats and
barley with twenty pounds of win
ter vetch is usually found best per
acre. If the soil has not been ino
culated for vetch by the growing of
this crop before the soil or seed
should be Inoculated for success.

one of tiie greatest of our problems;
especially at present when we are
