SHELBY SALESMEN are a wide
awake bunch of fellows who are al
ways getting ahead of the other
fellow with new Ideas. The latest on
this group' of "knights of ■ tfce road
is: how they manage all the "sales
man jokes.” It is a well known fact
that they all have their line of
jokes. Too. practically all of them
know the others Jokes. Still furth
er, they have little time for telling
them in their brief little "tete-a

are gravely considering getting out
a- catalogue—with all the Jokes
listed and numbered.

I JOHN .B. WRIGHTan .Up-.CCUh
man says the only thing that
w»tn« him think he might be get
ting up in years is the fact that he
knows. a man younger than he is
who has four or five great .grand
children, some of ’em big enough to
go to school. He takes consolation
in the fact that a man is Just as
old as he feels. Incidentally, he is
a good farmer, likes cats-for pett
and is an old-time lasses maker.
MORGANTON SENDS the story
of a in the Insane asylum
there who was promised freedom in
about three weeks. Deciding to
write home 'he procured a stamp
aid started to put it on a letter. He
thought he placed it on well but
'there was- a cock-roach under it
ahd when he" saw the stamp go
atg.gag-ing across the room and
disappear in a crack, he exclaimed
"Three weeks nothing. I wont be
out-ol "this place in three years!”
-A- W. BOND UR ANT assistant
freight traffic manager of the
Southern railway system with of
fices in Charlotte, was a visitor in
Shelby the other day, and related
in interesting story concerning the
cittle shipped to North Carolina
ffom the drought-afflicted states.
Ut, Bondurant Says that while the
tfae’almost-starved cattle are being
shipped, they are fed a limited and
regulated amount of food, and given
a certain amount of water to drink,
in order that they might not in
line themselves by eating too heav
ily. ' But when time comes for the
unloading, the shippers have a Job
on their hands because the cows,
accustomed to parched, dry prairies
,s pa£l months get their first
giimpae of fresh, green grass and
ia. a t neral stampede to get to
It. He says that " the" stampeding
cattle give trouble at every un
loading.'and that they furnish one
df the biggest inconveniences to
th*v have exDer
leneed ■ In history.

perienee is Robert L. Luckle at
Bo6tlc. over in Rutherford. Mr
Luckle and his wife passed through
Shelby last week enroute to Pitts
burgh to attend the Spanish-Amer
ican War veterans reunion. Mr
Luckle was‘born in Staunton, Va. in
the same block where Woodrow
Wilson was born As a youngster
he joined the Marines and was on
the Battleship Texas when it went
to the rescue of the Maine, sunk In
the harbor of Havana back In 'OS.
Harrowing tales of this experience
can be related by Mr. Luckle when
you question him. After his Marine
service, he entered the railway mall
sendee. When the CUnchfleld rali
road was completed, he was han
dling mall on the first passenger
tram. He bought property at Bos
tic and when he retired after 30
years of service, decided to remain
at Bostic.

Boiling Springs
Bride Is Honored
Old Man Depression received a
terrible blow when B. G. Beason, of
Boiling Springs, decided that it could
be licked with sandwiches.
Out of a Job, a family to support,
and with a lone $50 cash and credit
to begin with, Mr. Beason opened
a sandwich shop in the little Jun
ior college town and- in little more
than six years his shop has meta
morphosed into the Cleveland Sand
wich company, working more than
a dozen employees, making each day
more than 4000 sandwiches of some
| fifteen varieties, which are eaten
I with relish by customers in a terri
'lory of more than a fifty mile ra
Idius.
A Spreading Business.
A visit to the sandwich shop will
convince the most skeptical that an
idea plus management and work
will produce death blowTs to a .de
pression. An array of modern equip
ment including polished oil stoves,
electrically driven food choppers,
bread slicers and mixers, and a doz
en other instruments of the man
ager’s own invention give evidence
of Just how thousands of wholesome
spreads are prepared each day.
Manager Beason states that from
the very beginning, he'adopted ser
vice and quality as twin trademarks
for his business. With four other
men in the field all the time he
furnishes the service, and to Miss
Lou Moore, dietitian and his assist
ant since the beginning of the pro
ject. goes credit for the quality.
Miss Moore directs the activity of
some eight or ten young ladies and
women of the community as they
prepare and mix food, build the
sandwiches and vTap them in Wax
ed paper or cell^ohane and give
them proper labels.
Barbecue Most Poular.
Barbecue hash. declares Miss
Moore, Is the most popular article
In the entire line of sandwiches. It
is the pride of the company, the
recipe being Miss Moore’s inven
tion, and its consumption doubles
that of the once over-popular ham.
However, as close seconds, thirds, oi
fourths come chicken salad, deviled
egg, straight barbecue and pimento
cheese. Other popular numbers are
roast pork, ham and pickle, a
French.- a special and a baby club
Chuckling at the-" question of loss
in overhead in having to take back
unsold sandwiches every day. man
ager Beason states that such a
problem was the least of his trou
bles. A large pen of porkers fairly
bristle economy as they eat up the
scraps and left-overs and in turn
present themselves for more barbe
cue and ham sandwiches.
Carrying out the economy idea
still further the company has in
connection with the making of sand
wiches installed a general stock of
merchandise for which country pro
duce such as eggs, chickens, butter,
and vegetables are accepted as cash
These products are then used' or
sold as needed. ' * - *

Straight from the heart of old Castile, came the plans, the scaled models, and
the ideas for the Spanish Village, called by many the most attractive of the dozen
and more foreign villages which are featured at the Chicago World’s Fair. Like a
trip t6 old Madrid, a visit to the Spanish Village confirms the romantic notions
surrounding Spain that are associated with this country in the minds of most people.
