Fortunate or lU.OrGnate? The
Asheboro Courier last week had an
item about Randolph county citi-
zen who suffered l. series of acct
dents, beginning with his own mar
riage and ending with the death of
his mother-in-law-an with such
minor incidents as being operated
upon for appendicitis and breaking
both arms, thrown in. Read what
the Courier says of him:
MIR. Tyson Foster claims to have
eclipscd anybody in Randolph coun-
ty in the way of calamities during
last year To begin with there were
three marriages in his family, he
says, one of which was his own. Mr..
Foster underwent an operation for
appendicitis. In two days after, he
was able to go to work but had the
misfortune of breaking his arm:
This laid him up for sometime. He
had just gone back to work again
when he was cranking a Ford car
and broke the other arm. Upon
| this occasion Mr.. Foster had been to
attend his mothers funeral, her
death having occurred only a few
weeks previous

The long disused mine at Cum
mock, on the edge of Chatham and
Lee counties, is now in active ope-
ration. 80 miners are employed,
and the present output is 80 tons
of coal day. The danger from
gas in the mine, which caused the
explosions about 20 years ago that
killed over a score and caused the
operation to be stoppedy has been
eliminated by the installation of
powerful fans that sweep fresh air
within and bring out the gaseous
matter. The company is installing
additional machinery and this old
mine may yet become an important
coal center.
In this connection We might men
lion that U. L. Spence, D. A. Melon
aid and others of Carthage are pros
pecting for oil up the Deep river
valley They are having holes
bored at intervals, believing that
where coal is found, oil must be
near. There doubtless is oil in up
per Richmond and Moore and Chat
ham if only the right spot can be
bored and sufficient depth attained.

Solicitor Walter E. Brock is one
of the ablest solicitors in the state
in fact, we are of the belief that he
is THE ablest. And there is certain
ly TO more conscientious prosecut-
ing officer than he. Pussyfooting
and tricks of the trade do not deter
him from vigorously upholding the
states interests.
And he is quick on repartce. We
call to mind a passage of words in
court here at Rockingham last week.
The Arch Manor case was being
tried. Attorney H. F. Seawell, OF
Carthage. bantered the solicitor be-
cause he had failed to object to a
question propounded by Seawell. To
this Brock replied, Il can't talk
without thinking Il thought you
could" remarked Seawell. Il don't
know how you discovered it, shot
back Brock.

Of these 45,000,000 one

next harvest, in June.
Famine victims are now
dying at the rate of 15,000a
day, one every six seconds.
Every time the minute hand
of your watch makes a rev.
olution, ten Chinese have
succumbed to famine. The
famine is the result of crop
failure caused by a prolonged
draught.

sum of 3 cents will sustain a lif'
