season of the year, especially with
the farmers.
The good old summer time has
just about passed, and the health.
full season is coming on.
j. G. Goodman contemplates
going to Florida, October 9Th.
We do not know why, but probab-

M. A. Goodman and family
visited at A. L. Lyerly's last Sun
day night. Come again, well
come,
Our farmers are not uear
through making their meadow
hay yet. 1t seems very late to
make hay in October. So much
rain has done the work for them.
Geo F. Blackwell, is quite
sick. We wish him a speedy re-
covery.
Many of Unions congregation
attended services at St. Matthews
last Sunday.
Some will laugh7and some will

G. L. Lyerly and family visited

Lewis D. Earnhart and family,

hope this is only gossip; surely
our route will not be changed any
more. If the proposed changes
are made IA families will be de-
prived of their mail, unless they
make a change in boxes. Some
will probably move to Gold Hill,
Route 1. Now if we are going to
have free delivery mail, let's have
it. If the route was established
for the convenience of the people
let it remain where it is. Give us
free delivery or give us the old
star route and a postofice to get
our mail. There is some talk Of
circulating a petition to down
this route and to petition for the
old star route.
We notice in the Salisbury Post
that Hon. A. L. Lingle has ten

his resignation to take effect at

accepted as heartily as you ten
dered it. You resigned. to the
wrong parties If you didn't want
it accepted. We have already
felt the effects of your resigna-
ton. The heavens seem to weep
so that we can't make hay or pick
cotton. The sun seems to be on
his southwark journey and the
moon was first seen to shine In
the west last week. All this is a
token Of your departure. The
Republican party has been much
strengthened and we rejoice with
the masses. We don't blame you,
Bro. Lingle, if Spencer Blackburn
promised you an office and then
wouldn't give it to you. don't you
vote for him, try somebody else.
You better get Hackett to put 1t
in writing. Be not deceived. Be
sure you are right, then go ahead.
We bid you farewell. May Hack
EFT take you and keep you, May
Hackett make his money to SHINE
on you and be loyal to you. May
Hackett lift up his eyes on you
and give you an office; amen.

4 cigarettes in England have
/ called forth almost as much con-
demnation as American canned
goods Before a select committee
of the House of Lords recently
Edward Page CASTOR, an Ameri-
can, who is London manager OF
the publishing firm of Funk &
Wagnalls, made statements concern
ing American tobacco that have
caused no end of comment on this
side. Naturally the agents OF Amerl-
can tobacco companies have come
out with wholesale denials In order
to ascertain the facts of the matter
the writer has obtained from Mr.. Gas
ton some frst-hand information on
the subject
In giving my testimony before the
House of Lords" said Mr. CASTOR, Il
was careful only to make such asser-
tions as I knew could be corroborated.
| knew we'll the character of the peo-
pie 1 was fighting, and that they
would be glad to take advantage of
In the first place" continued the
speaker, Il might mention that the
organization with which l am con-
nected for fighting cigarettes, and the
American cigarette in particular, is
one of the strongest of its kind in
England. To give you an idea of it's
makeup we have on our advisory
board Major General Baden Powell,
who is chairman of the board; Hon
Winston Churchill. NJ P; DR.. T. J.
Mcnamara, NJ P; Professor Sims
Woodhead, the Bishop OF Ripon,
ArchdeacOn Sinclair and others who
are internationally known"
How long have you been in exist
ence as the international Anti Ciga-
rette League?" was asked.
Our active operations have ex-
tended over FIVE years now, and to
sum up the story of our efforts in a
nutshell | must tell you that we have
enrolled on our books $4,000 British
boys, who have pledged themselves
not to use cigarettes in any form, and
that number is increasing daily"
Did you meet with much opposi-
ton IN forming your league or carry
ing out your propaganda?
AT first we had to overcome the
usual difficulties of all new move
ments, but it was not long before we
had our Organization working. The
American tobacco people,. who are
chiefly affected, denied that their
wares were adulterated as we claimed
that they were. We met these charges
by producing expert analyses showing
that American cigarettes did contain
opium, chloral and other impurities.
1t was denied also that the American
tobacco manufacturers employed Ital-
ians TO pick up filthy tobacco which
had been thrown away on the streets
and which was, naturally, full of all
sorts OF germs and other impurities.
We were able to prove these charges,
also, and our efforts were rewarded
not only by being able TO enroll
$4,000 boys under our banner. but to
seriously affect the sale of American
cigarettes in England"
