RAILROADS OF COUNTRY MADE
GOOD RECORD DURING CURRENT
YEAR; HISTORY MADE; REPORT

WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.--Trans-
portation history during the current
year has been marked by "unequalled
performance" OF railroad service, the
Interstate Commerce Commission de-
clared today in its annual report.
With an unprecedented volume of
traffic to handle, carriers almost
eliminated car shortage, the report
said, and kept equipment serviceable
to an unusual extent 1t was added
that at the same time general charg-
es placed upon the public for service
were decreased.
"The effect during the calendar

in 1922 will be to lessen the total
freight transportation charges paid
by the shipping public by more than

BOONE BOY HURT
AS AUTO TURNS
Dock Brown At Point of Death in
Statesville Hospital As Result of
Accident Last Thursday Evening.

On last Thursday afternoon Mr.. D
F. (Dock) Brown of Boone, one of
the men in charge of construction and
maintenance work on the Boone Trail
Highway started in a Ford automo-
bile to a point several miles east of
Boone TO give some teamsters orders
as to some work on a certain link of
road. He was travelling at a fairly
rapid rate of speed and as he star
ted to negotiate curve near the
home Of Mr.. Walter Carol about
four miles from town one of his tires
blew out, and he was found by Mr..
Carroll soon afterwards unconscious
in the road, the Ford having turned
over twice without leaving the high
way.
The injured man was rushed to the
Long Sanitorium in Statesville that
afternoon, accompanied by DR.. MEG
Anders, where X-Ray examinations
revealed the fact that he was suffer-
ing mainly from dislocation in the
spinal column near the base of the
skull, which of course tended to par
alize the body. The latest reports to-
day wednesday, from the hospital
are to the effect that his condition
is practically unchanged. He has new
er regained consciousness, and al
though he has rallied little two or
three times and has taken nourish-
ment, little hope of his recovery
is entertained.
Three brothers D. A. Chauncey,
and w. Hardin Brown are at the
bedside, while another brother Attor-
ney John E. Brown returned to Boone
Sunday night.
Dock is one of the foremost young
men of the town, holder of valua-
BILE realty here land his many friends
are very anxious over his condition.
.Note-As we go to press Thursday
we learn that Mr.. Brown is showing
marked improvement and the doctors
have hopes of his recovery. ....;,

DAN'L BOONE PARK
BRINGS $37,697.5O|
Sale Conducted on Tuesday by Og-
burn Bros. Auction Co. Green's
boro, N. c. Largest of the Year.

The sale of the Judge Councill
property on Tuesday was quite an
event in Boone. An extra large crowd
was present, not only from Watauga
but from several other counties as
well.
So great was the demand for the
property that for some time lots
were sold at the rate of one a min
ute. Every lot in the entire boundary
was sold, and we take it they all
went at a fair price, as the gross
receipts from the sale were more
than $37,00O.00, that including, of
course the lots that were sold prior
to the day of sale.
The company has made some mon
ey, and they are entitled to it. They
came among US as strangers, but
within the last six weeks they have
made many friends. They have receiv-
ed numerous compliments from local
sources as well as from the general
travelling public on the expert way
in which they handled the big prop
osition. The property was really de-
veloped to the last word as advertis-
ed, and we feel that even as they
themselves prospered by the transac-
ton we have prospered infinitely
more, as the opening Of this new ad-
dition to the town is the biggest one
thing that has happened this season,
and will necessarily be to our mutual
advantage more and more as the days
go by. Mr.. Halladay and his asso-
ciates are four-square when it comes
to business, and they left this morn
ing feeling good, and left everyone
else happy also.

ed property in this subdivision are

The closing of the foregoing pla-
ces of business by our busy mer-
chants, and others is indeed commen-
dable, and should be continued by
them indefinitely. When the services
will close we do not know, but until
then it will be impossible to do any
trading after the hour named. And
would it not be we'll for our mer-
chants to adopt this rule permanent
ly? 1t occurs to US that when they
with their clerks, bookkeepers, stem
ographers, etc, have gone through a
twelve hour grind it would be most
fitting for them to close and enjoy
the evening relaxing and resting af-
ter the long hours. This is done in
many cities and towns and it is said
to work we'll. Of course, on the start
it will be rather awkward to both mer
chant and customer but that little
matter would soon adjust itself. We
have for quite while had Blue Sun
day laws in our town. Now we only
have to get our necessary supplies
on Saturday. that's all. If the merch.
ants will close at seven-thirty it will
soon become natural for their custo
mers to do their trading before tina,
