CITY CEMETERY IS
GREATLY ENLARGED
20 Acres Bought and Much
Of 1t Being Improved
for Lot Sales

Through the fundamentally of
Federal WPA funds, program of
enlargement and Identification of
Elmwood cemetery has been launch
ed by the city.
A year or two ago the city purch-
ased 20 acres of land south of the
old Elmwood cemetery for a figure
of $4,000. 1t also acquired all Of the
old cemetery except the so-called
new part. It has assumed the
maintenance and upkeep and beauti-
fication Of the entire cemetery area.
Already work has started in deve
lopment of the new part of the ceme-
terry Some $4,000 to $4,000 of WPA
funds have been allotted for this
work, but nothing like all of it has
been made available, due to the lack
of relief labor to do the job. A steam
shovel has been promised and is ex-
pected to be sent here almost any
day to continue the development Of
the, new part of the cemetery.
Gutter work in a circle through the
new development has already been
laid and a tar and gravel pavement
is to be laid over that course as soon
as the necessary labor can be had.
In order to modernize its cemetery
the city has drawn up and adopted
regulations for the sale and main
tenance of lots, and has guaranteed
the maintenance of the property
without further expense to owners Of
lots therein
It is believed that in year or so
Henderson will have one of the most
beautiful cemetery sites to be found
anywhere. Already much work has
been done in the old semetery, which
has been transformed from the for
mex unsightly condition to a place
of beauty and quietness.

DRUG CO.
BUSINESS EXPANDS
Successor In Location To
Old Dorsey Business,
Long Landmark

A warm welcome to tobacco and
cotton farmers to bring their crops to
Henderson this fall and sell them on
the local markets is extended by the
Peoples Dug Store. This establish
ment is located in the quarters that
were for half century occupied by
the Dorsey Drug Company, though
the store building two years ago was
completely remodeled and renovated
and made into one of the most mod
ern stores of its kind in the city.
]. G. Tolson and L. S. Petty are the
proprietors of the business. Both have
been in Henderson for a long time,
having formerly operated their bust
ness at North Henderson. They moved
into the city proper in the search for
a wider field, and have been salts
fled with the volume of business that
has come their way.
One of the features stressed by the
company is the fact that all the old
prescription files of the Dorsey drug
store are in the possession of the
Peoples Drug Store and can be filled
as they were written originally. They
date back to 1873, the time of the
establishment of the business by the
late Melville Dorsey.
Prompt, efficient and courteous SER
vice is offered patrons of the estab-
lishment. With registered pharmacists
available for all prescription work,
customers may be assured of the best
in the way of proper mixing of drugs
on doctors orders and of the use of
fresh ingredients at all times.
The store is a Nyal Drug Store,
which means that a complete line of
Nyal remedies, sundries and toilet
goods of all kinds are carried. In ad-
dition there is modern fountain, a
complete stock of smokes and the
famous line of Whitman fine candies
Peoples Drug Store is prepared to
do it's full share in extending a greet
ing to farmers and to making their
stay in the city both pleasant and
profitable.

quiet as possible. But those in close
touch with the Hoey strategy saw that
his managers are we'll satisfied with
the progress he made last week and
that the lead which DR.. Mcdonald is
admitted to have is just enough to
scare the Hoey supporters into TAX
ing Off their coats and going to work
as they have not worked before
HOey Managers Called In
During the past week some 60 coun-
ty managers were called into the State
headquarters here for personal con-
ference with the Hoey managers.
while reports have been received from
every one of tn 100 counties. AS a re-
suit, his supporters are confident that
the organization work which has now
virtually been perfected is going to
begin to show better results than ever
this week and that it is going to cut
under and chop down much of the
Mcdonald strength in the east as we'll
as in the west.
Our people have just started to get
to work and they are getting results"
Hubert Olive, campaign manager for
Hoey, said today "There is no longer
any doubt but that Mr.. Hoey will be
high man in the first primary, and
there is very real possibility that he
may win the nomination and tsus
make a second primary unnecessary"
Graham Not Discouraged.
The Graham supporters, though
conceding that Sandy is now in third
place, are far from discouraged, and
maintain that he has made more
gains the past week than either Hoey
or Mcdonald and that he is drawing
steadily from both. A good many who
have been inclined to support Hoey
have now gone over into the Graham
camp because they are convinced that
Hoey cannot defeat Mcdonald in g
second primary the Graham forces
maintain, while even more are desert
ing Mcdonald for Graham in the be-
lief that Graham is the safer and
saner candidate and not connected
with the SHELBY Dynasty" or the pre-
sent administration Machine" And
while it is agreed that the Graham
hackers are going to have to do lo
of work to enable Sandy to run sec
ond in the first primary, indications
are that his managers and workers
are going to put more steam back OF
their efforts this week than ever be
fore in an effort to prove to the State
that he can make the grade and pass
Hoey and Mcdonald both between
now and the date of the primary
They are depending upon persona
work and contact in every county and
precinct to put him over.

Raleigh, May A. Although DR.
Ralph W. Mcdonald, of Winston
Salem is undoubtedly in the lead at
the present time for the Democratic
nomination for governor, both Clyde
r Hoey and Sandy Graham are rapid
" pulling up on the former college
professor, with the result that political
circles here are predicting that DR..
Mcdonald cannot hold his present
lead for more than a week or two
longer at best.
Most impartial observers maintain
that there has been a big change of
sentiment this past week in many of
the eastern counties where Mcdonald
is conceded to have his greatest
strength, and that since he has been
forced to transfer most of his cam
paign effort into the Piedmont and
west, much of the strength he has
had in the east is going to slip away
from him. They maintain that much
TO McDonald's following is very SINH
lar to a leaky inner tube, requiring
constant pumping up to keep it in
flated, and that while the affable pro-
fessor is busy in the Piedmont and
west his campaign tires in the east
are going to be punctured with so
many holes by Hoey and Graham
tacks that they will be beyond repair
by the time the primary on June 6.
Denials by Mcdonald.
The Mcdonald managers and sup
porters deny all these claims of their
opponents of course, and maintain
that their claims are nothing but cam
paign propaganda. They point out
that the rival managers have been
claiming for some six weeks now that
Mcdonald has already reached his
peak but that the anti-sales tax cam
ddate has been chugging right along
week after week. and that he is going
to keep right on gaining from now
until the primary. His managers main
tain that there is now little doubt but
that DR.. Mcdonald will win the NOM
nation in the first primary by get,
ting a plurality over Hoey, Graham
and John A. McRae, although many
of his hackers will be satisfied if he
can stay in first position until the
primary.
The Hoey forces, encouraged by the
showing being made by the Shelby
orator this past week, showing he is
pushing Mcdonald harder than any
other candidate, are going to make
their biggest effort this week and next
to put their candidate into first place,

tiers is trying to keep it's plans as
