talent and mixture for this show. The
result being that it is one of the most
entertaining and surprising stage
stage shows in years. The star, Jesse
Wise, with the "All-American Half
Wits has recn the feature of seve-
raj Broadway hits. The cast also in
cludcs Moore and Shy who are known

Near Million
Pounds Leaf
Disposed OF
Weeks Average Is
$3.50; Season Total
is 22,183,384 Lbs,
Average $21.51

Nearly a full million pounds Of to-
baccO were sold on the Henderson
market during the past week, the
first since the resumption of sales
after the Christmas-N New Year holi-
days. Official figures announced to-
day showed 9O3.512 pounds had been
sold for $1A4.4S4.18. for an average of
$3.50 per hundred pounds.
This brought season sales to o.
183,3S4 pounds, selling for $4,773,440,-
20. for an average of $21.51 per hun
drcd pounds. The market must still
sell slightly less than three million
pounds if it reaches it's goal of 25,-
100000 pounds for the season.
Sales this week failed to reflect any
adverse effects on prices of the Su-
preme Courts decision two weeks ago
knocking out the AAA, and, while
averages were about cent per pound
under the final week before the holi-
days, this was ascribed to the appear
ance of lower quality of leaf on the
warehouse floors. Opinion has been
expressed in some quarters that the
season is too near the close for any
adverse effect of the AAA decision
to appear in prices.
No date has been announced for
the close of the season here and else
where on the larger Middle Belt mar
kets. The closing date will be deter
mined largely by the amount of to-
hacco remaining in the hands of far
mars for sale. 1t is thought that sew
cral million pounds more may be dis
posed Of on the local market. With
two more weeks left in January, the
belief is that the market will likely
close sometime in the early or mid
die part of February. Eastern North
Carolina markets closed their season
with the holidays.
Considering the quality of leaf left
for sale. it is thought that price aver
ages the past week were about in
keeping with the general price level
for the season.

Instead of having to play around
with ill-fitting screens the smart home
modernizer will install these new
screens which disappear onto a roller
located at the top Of the window. Two
little metal tracks are placed on either
side Of the window and the flexible
screen slides up and down in this per-
fectly fy-proof groove. The tracks and
screen frames are finished in an at
tractive baked enamel which is dur
