The CRESCENT PHARMACY
MAKES ASSIGNMENT

The second commercial failure
that Scotland Neck has witnessed IN
twelve wears occurred last week
when the Crescent Pharmacy, Inc,
made an assignment over to its
creditors. Such a termination OF the
firms affairs has been expected for
some little time by peop'e here who
were familiar with local business ac-
tivities in Scotland Neck.
Doing upwards Of twelve thous-
and dollars worth Of business the
first year this corporation looked
fair to do the ajority Of the drug
business in the community and sur
rounding country. At the organl-
cation Of the Pharmacy DR.. j. Key
Brown, of Greenville, who is an AK

at once on it's feet and the Crescent
at that time babe fair to be paying
proposition; but as more and more
customers were put on the BOOKS,
and with the management OCCASION
ally changing hands, the credit OF
those on the books was not looked
into, and consequently many bad
charges were made which occasion
ed it's ultimate failure The direct
cause Of the assignment was that
there was too much business on the
wrong side Of the ledger which
seemed unco]lectable.
In the absence of Mr.. Stuart
Smith, of the law firm of Kitchin &
Smith, who were appointed receiv-
ers, Mr.. Ashby w. Dunn has charge
of winding up the affairs Of the cor
poration. According to Mr.. Duny
the affairs Of the business are in ;
pretty bad muddle and that little
business judgment was exercised il

is estimated that twenty-five hun
dred dollars worth of drugs were i
the store at the time Of the failure.

ready contracted for large quaint
ty of seed for the members. There

elected. That will be one for each
Local.
The Farmers Union Company, at
Enfield, has let the contract to H. S.
Poole, of Rocky Mount. for two
story brick building 4Ox8O feet. The
first floor will be used for a general
store room and will also have the
office of the county secretary and
treasurer. The second story will
have hall for the Woodmen Of the
World and a storage room. The
building when completed will be the
largest in Enfield and will cost abou
five thousand dollars.
The membership in the county j
steadily increasing. There are NOR
than twice as many now than Their
were last year.
The next county meeting will b
. held at the Hardee Local Union nea
Enfield on Friday before the secon
