SEATS ARE SELLING WELL

Tickets to the Thanksgiving
Day Virginia. Carolina football
game were sent out by registered
mail this week, and along with
them Charles T. Woollen, grad
uate manager of athletics, sent
a map of the roads leading into
Chapel Hill. This was prepared
especially for the football crowd,
but it will be of interest to every
body who has occasion, now or
in the future, to travel in this
territory.
The newest of the improved
roads is the one from the south.
The last stretch of concrete, be-
tween here and the Orange
Chatham line, was laid a few
days ago, and the pavement will
be open for traffic next Thurs
day. This will be the most direct
route from many towns, includ-
ing Charlotte, which are sending
thousands of men and women to
the game.
The dotted line from Nelson
to Graham indicates dry
weather road" 1t has a dirt
surface which affords fairly
good going when there. have
been no recent rains, but of
course it cannot compare for
smoothness, even under the best
weather conditions, with the con-
|crete state highways. Persons
coming from Raleigh and other
places to the east, by turning to
the left at Nelson, will save
eight miles and avoid the pas
sage through Durham. Visitors
from the west along the central
highway will probably do better
to follow that artery as far as
Hillsboro and there cut off to
the right. The road from Hills
boro here has been resurfaced
with a Understanding tar sur
face, over most Of it's distance,
within the last few weeks.
Yesterday about IL, 900 tickets
had been sold and the flood of
orders continued to pour in.
There is always a large crowd
which does not buy tickets until
the day of the game, and so it
seems likely that all the $4,000
seats will be occupied.
Parking is one of the big prob
lens connected with the event.

POLICY ON TREES
Is RE-AFFIRMED;
CITIZENS SPEAK
Aldermen, after a Public Hear.
ing, Hold to Decision to
Plant on Main Street
sWEETGUMs AND MIMOsAs

After a public hearing Mon
day evening the aldermen re-af-
firmed their decision to protect
the existing trees and to plant
new trees along the north side
of the business block of Frank
lin street. Enclosing frames
will be provided for the young
sprouts, and the town govern
ment will attend to the water
= ing.
Some 40 or so citizens, having
heard that the tree question was
to come up again and that last
weeks decision might be re-
versed, crowded into the little
room over the Peoples Bank,
Mr.. KnoX's office, which serves
as the aldermanic chamber. 1t
was owing to their vigorous pro-
test against interference with
the trees, and to subsequent ar
guments presented at the meet
ing of the board alone, that the
planting policy was confirmed.
Moody Durham was spokes-
man for the merchants who
thought the business block
would be better without trees,
but he displayed a conciliatory
attitude and said that, as a'citi-
zen and property owner, he
wanted the street improvement
problem solved in the way that
would be best for the village as
a whole.
VIC. Coker led in presenting
the case for tree preservation
and planting. He quoted some
of the worlds most famous
town planting experts to the eff
feet that small towns and vii
lagos should have trees in bust
ness as well as residential blocks !;
and.he said that, after thought
full consideration, he had decid-
ed that sWeetgums and mimosas
would be the best for planting
along our main street.
Among others who addressed
the aldermen in championship
of trees were Mrs. A. NJ. Jor-
dan and Mrs. A. A. KIuttz, the
latter being the. owner of stores
in the middle of town. J. E.
Lear, electrical expert of the
Uniyersity's school of engineer
ing, said the trees, far from in
terfering with lighting, worked
in admirably with a good light
ing system.

the finest codes of the kind in the

lied report shows the immense
amount of work done by the social
worker and also the value and scope
of this work This branch of the
work alone would be sufficient reason
for giving the County Red Cross un-
limited support.
In addition to this, however, there
has been the following work which
may be clasSed as typically Red Cross
work. The items given below are
taken verbatim from Miss Callister's
report.
Outside Of the social program, the
Red Cross has been active in bringing
to the 200 mothers Of the county the
course in Home Hygiene and Care Of
the Sick; study course conducted
by a Public Health nurse qualified to
give careful instruction in personal
and community health.
The chapter raised total of $780,
90 for disaster relief during the Mis-
sissippi Flood II also contributed its
quota Of Christmas materials 10 sol
diers stationed in foreign lands.
The plan of work of the Redwood
County Chapter for the coming year
is similar to the program carried out
in the past and can be summarized
as follows:
i. Raise n sufficient sum by Roll
Call TO meet the quota for disaster re-
lief and service needed by the Nation
al Organization.
.. Continue TO cooperate with the
Children's Bureau m keeping an ex-
ecutive secretary in the county.

3. TO give home service to ex-
service men and their families.
4. To assist in the Public Health
work available for the county.
). To continue with Junior Red
Cross work in the public schools As
in the past.
Is. To give to the county further
opportunity to receive instruction in
personal and public health by continu-
ing the course in Home Hygiene and
Care of the Sick. and if funds are
available to open this course to moth
erS and to students in the Senior High
Schools in the county.
This program of service is well
worth the investment. If taxpayer,
and for no other reason interested.
the fact that the activities carried on
by the Red Cross and the Child Wei
fare Board.in this county has light
ened the tax burden considerably is
sufficient reason why this worthy
cause should receive the heartiest
support of all.

LOCAL MARKET
FAIRLY GOOD IN
OFF HOG YEAR
City Packers Respond to
Demands of Competi-
tive Market.

Closing a year in which the fifth
eth anniversary of the Belt Rail-
road and Stockyards Company was
celebrated, the local hog market
compares favorably with 1925, eS-
pecially when conditions are COM
pared with those in other markets.
One Of the threatening menaces,
somewhat general over the country,
is the. so-called country buying or
direct shipping. Buyers comb the
tarmside for the best material,
which is shipped direct to the pack
ers. The animals that remain are
shipped to the stockyard, thus re-
ducing the quality of material on
sale at the competitive markets In
dianapolis packers have, however,
refrained from this practice, more
so during the past year, with
benef1tting result to both producer
and buyer.
Hog receipts for the year show
gain over the preceding twelve
months. although other livestock
have decreased in the number re-
ceived. The demand of local pack
ers on the Union Stockyards has
increased, as shown by the loss of
approximately 10000 hogs in Ship

man type as rapidly as it was pos
sible to finance the changes.
The program has not been COM
pleted. but a sufficient number Of
cars we're transferred during the
year to put one-man service into eff
feet on several Of the lighter lines
in the south part Of the city. For
the first ten months Of the year the
wages paid to one-man car opera
tors increased 1866.
The most radical step taken by
the car company during the year
was the purchase Of the Peoples
Motor Coach Company, under
which the car company becomes
practically the sole transportation
utility Of the city.
Under the terms of this purchase,
the motor coach company is main
tanned as a separate entity and
pending the approval Of a coordina-
ton plan. recently in hearing, no
practical benefits have accrued to
the service through the purchase.
II is the theory OF the street rail-
way management that when the
service offered by the TWO conpan-
les can be coordinated, the transpor-
tation needs of the city will be COW
cred either through the car line and
bus lines or through the transfer
privilege which viii permit the use
of any two lines with a maximum
of IL cents fare.
With its employees receiving higher
wages than ever before in their ex-
perience, with its cars operating on
faster schedules than ever before,
the accident record of the street
car company for the year 1927 was
remarkable enough to attract atten-
ton throughout the country, the
number Of accident for which the
company was responsible being more
comparable with interurban car OPP
Grafton than with that of city lines.

Company enters the year 1923 with
every prospect Of still better year.
