It’s getting too late to do your Christmas shopping early. But there are still plenty of gifts to be found in the Kings Mountain stores, and the merchants will be glad to see you right up through Christmas eve. KEEP FAITH WITH CHILDREN To taste the sweetest joy of Christmas, to know it in all of IIS' happiness, you must make the heart of some child glad. Because where' the children are there is the spirit' of Christmas. "Dear Santa" is scrawled by tiny* fingers, stockings are hung by the chimney with care by little hands— so let us make their childhood' dream come true. We think that Christmas makes children of us all; it is the day of days; it brings us closer to our chil dren aaid our childhood. Make your Clirisrnas merrier by making some child happy. We ran across the poem below whiich fits in with our line of thought, so we are reprinting it here for you; There is no sight so pitiful. Nor quite so sad—forlorn— As children who have not a gift At break of Christmas Morn. There’s naught to bring joy more complete. Nor any higher pay In dftTTends, than bringing cheer To tots on Christmas Day. To hear their shouts of happy zest— To see their bright eyes shine. Brings to one’s mind in holy thought, The Christmas Child Divine. For, does He not say to the world— So we may kindly be— “As ye do to the least of these, So do you unto me?” —Selected. BE CAREFUL , Nothing appeals to a boy more than fireworks, and not a few me,n| get a big kick out of them. With an ample supply available this year, it is already evident that more will be used this Christmas than in a num ber of years. Which means that there will be more accidents with them. Back in the good old days, a ifn ger or thumb which was damaged by a large firecracker that exploded prematurely was given the usual home treatment for cuts and burns, but today, since serious infections seem to develop more easily, pat ents of children who are hurt with firecrackers should not delay in tak ing them to a physician for treat ment. The life of a child is too preci ous to be lost because of the lack of medical care. While most of us who have passed the age when we get some pleasure out of fireworks wold like to have them prohibited by a law which is strictly enforced, we cannot forget the day-s when we did our share of the shooting. For that reason, we must be more or less tolerant. Only on one thing will we take a firm stand, and that is on the matter of throwing firecrackers into cars or at persons. A man or boy who does such a thing should be jailed i)n mediately, for that practice is ex ceedingly dangerous because of the likelihood of putting out eyes. "Be careful" is our admonition. FARM QUESTIONS ANSWERED Q:—What is the best method for curing meat? A.—There are two principal meth ods advocated in North Carolina — the brine cure and the dry salt cure, either of which is satisfactory. Com mon salt is the basis of all meat cur ing and in either method is the pre dominant factor, tn both cures sugar is sometimes used to give the meat a better flavor and to counteract the action of the salt by keeping the muscles soft, where salt alone makes them hard. r'-y-nulas for b6th the brine cure and the dry salt cure arc given in Extension Folder 34 on “Killing and Curing Moat on the Farm." Copies of this folder may be had free upon appli cation to the Agricultural Editor at State College.

Lynch It takes all kinds of people to make a world. The Fire Department has had two calls lately, and the fire men say that they always have three calls pretty close together, so sure enough they got their third call Sun day morning. Now at the first two fires only complimentary things were said about the prompt and efficier. • way the riremen did their work. But, at the third fire somebody was heard to remark that if they ever had a fire they would call the Shelby Fire Department. Yes, folks it takes all kinds of people to make a world.' Anyway, I think that we have one of the most efficient and prompt Fire Departments in the State. Everybody has their pet hobby, something that they unconsciously do. I knew a fellow in Goldsboro that used to break matches in his mouth, and this fact helped convict him of a murder, and he was electrocuted in Raleigh last December. O. W. Myers, manager of Belk's writes $3 on anything that he has handy. I hope that is will not lead him to any trouble. I noticed that Henry Summitt was absent from Church week before last so I stopped in to see what the trou’ ble was, because he is usually a reg! ular attendant at Church. I found1 that he had trouble with his facel, a breaking-out, and could not shavet and of course a man would not want to go to ohurch without a clean shave. One Word Description of W. K. Mauney: Hustler. One of my spy reporters informed me that Mike Milan and his capable) assistant had been seen in their store one night this week at one o’clocK in the morning. I wondered what could be the occasion of this, so I stopped by to check up, and aft er I saw the beautiful way the store and window was decorated, I did not have to ask any questions.

SYNOPSIS Judge Calhoun Davis of the cir cuit court in the sleepy little town of Tidewater, Virginia, is hated by his stepson, Jim. Jim is in love with Mary Lee, who, in turn, vrefers Bob Stuart. Jim gets himself into a jam when he borrows a car from a neighbor and wrecks it. To avoid arrest and to pay the garage bill, Jim sells Bob a shotgun which he Jound on the rear scat of the car. Later, Bob finds out from Alary that the gun didn’t belong to Jim. When Bob meets Jim at a carnival that night, they begin to fight. Jim grabs a gun from a nearby shoot ing gallery and shoots Bob. He dis appears. Meanwhile, the Judge finds out about the shooting. He goes home to find Jim hiding iti the attic. He decides to turn him over to the authorities. CHAPTER X “I figure," the Judge told Captain miley the next morning, as he sat Dr. Trent told them. "As It Is, it’s just a flesh wound. Bob should be out of here in a couple of days.” Bob reached out and took Mary Lee’s hand. Then he turned to his mother. “You like Mary Lee, don’t you?" he asked. “I certainly do." Mrs. Stuart placed her arm around the girl. “Then you’d better start rehears ing that good old speech: ’Bless you, my children.’ ” Back on the bench in the little Tidewater courthouse. Judge Davis once more was engaged in settling the innumerable disputes which came before him each day. The first case was that of Granby Tucker. “Granby,” the Judge said to a ■ ■ hi mu mi -mm Plato Jones escurted Spasm John son and Varius Trigg to the bar. “What's the charge?" asked Da via “Fighting and disturbing the peace,” answered the Chief. “He was doln the flghtin'.
