(Special to The Star.! Lawndale, July 10.—The spirit of the people of Lawndale is upon a much higher level than seems to be Indicated by the writer of the anony moua letter published in Friday's paper suggesting underhandedness in Lawndale’s loss to Hickory. We lost to Hickory and we are able to take it on the chin and lose Ilk? men. We hereby exonerate the Hickory team of any charge of any thing suggestive of unfairness. Fur ther we refuse to believe that there was any underhanded acts made by the umpires. While It is true that a rivalry ex ists between the Cleveland Cloth mill and Lawndale, something akin to a Duke-Carolina rivalry. It has been and we hope it remains, a friendly rivalry. It is further true that Lawndale has taken several steps toward arranging'a game with the Cloth Mill, each of which has been rejected. It Is further true that the Lawndale fans had rather see their team win over their neighbors, the Cleveland Cloth ml" than over any team that they might play. Still we intend to be good sports and not stoop to any depths of unjust criticism based more upon Impulse than upon reason. To Show Picture* At Mull’s Chapel Dr. E.

Lawndale Loses Game In 10th To Hickory Outfit 2-1 Loss Put* Cleveland Team Out Of Seml-pm Title Series. Hickory, July 12—A perfect bunt in the 10th inning here Monday broke up a 1-1 deadlock and en abled the Hickory Rebels to elimi jnate Lawndale from the semi-pro | tourney by the score of 2 to 1. It was one of the closest and most thrilling contests played on the Lenolr-Rhyne park this year. The Rebels nicked the veteran Hartsoe for eleven blngles, but found It a hard matter to hit safely with men on bases. M. Bumgarner twirled a great game for the Re bels. allowing only five scattered hits, no two of which came in one inning, and would have achieved a shutout had it not been for Farris’ walk, and J. Bumgarner’s error on Wilson's single In the sixth, which allowed Lawndale to score the first run of the game. The Rebels tied It. lip In the "lueky seventh” on singles by Burns, J. Bumgarner and Munday. Hovis, J. Bumgarner and Mun day led the winners with the ash. while Wilson was the only visitor able to get more than one hit. Hartsoe struck out eight men to seven for M. Bumgarner, but “Gus” walked three to Bumgarner’s one. The old Valdese vet had a great day in the field, boasting eleven assist^ from the slab position. A good crowd attended the game, a large number of fans following the team from Lawndale.

As is the case with flour, sugar | prices have jumped considerably during the past 60 days, Raleigh merchants report. The wholesale price has steadily increased from $3.90 per hundred to $4.60. Flour prices, wholesale, went, up from $5.35 to $8 10 within the same period.

What their de cision will be is still uncertain. < anned (rood*. Practically all of the leading canned goods can now be purchased at the same prices that prevailed three months ago. but. merchants are anticipating a rise in these lines also. "Many of us are spending every cent we can lay our hands on in stocking up, for the futures are uncertain," said one merchant. So far neither meats, milk nor butter have been affected. Merchants are finding that they can make "spot" purchases of many staples at lower prices than "fu tures." This reflects the uncertain ty of the market, it was said.

A ruling has been made by the department which says to the de light of the farmers: "The Act exempts from the processing tax, wheat processed i by or for a producer for consump tion by his own family, employees, or household. This means, accord ing to the Bureau of Internal Rev lenue, that a farmer may for his I own consumption have his wheat ground or may procure direct from the mill grinding his wheat, in ex change for this wheat, an equivalent amount of flour made from similar wheat without any tax being im posed ” Wheat that is ground or crack ed, not in the form of flour, for feed purposes is also exempt from tax it is pointed out.
