COCA-COLA PLANT
MODERN ALL OVER
Popular Bottled Drink Man
ufactured for Wide Dis
tribution Here

One of the reasons for the large
and growing business in the sale Of
bottled Coca-Cola in Henderson is the
fact that the public has come to real
ize that it is put up and offered in
the most sanitary plant. The es-
Enlistment, erected a little over a
year ago, is a large and commodious
two-story structure on the Raleigh
highway a stones throw from the
city limits.
Principals of good business manage
ment and craftsmanship are fostered
and carried through in the operation
Of the business by c. o. Seifert, the
general manager and one of the prin-
cipal proprietors. Mr.. Seifert is a man
who has given strict attention to his
business and devotes his time and eff
forts to the direction of its every de-
tail.
The Coca-Cola plant is the last word
in sanitation and cleanliness. From
cellar to garnet it is spotless, so much
so that visitors marvel at the evil
dences of tidiness to be seen in every
department. Every precaution is
taken to safeguard the health of
patrons, so far as this ever popular
drink is concerned
All bottles are thoroughly sterilized
by modern machinery before being
re-filled and delivered again to Gus
toner's The actual bottling of the
drink, too, is by machinery, of course,
with human hand touching the steril-
lied bottles only as they are placed in
the crates.
A fleet of trucks is operated to fur
nish prompt and frequent delivery
service to all parts of the Henderson
territory which is served by the local
company.
To the side and to the rear are con-
crete driveways for the trucks, and
these are kept free from trash and
debris at all times. The front is a
grassy lawn, generously interspersed
with shubbery, and with an appear
ance that is as attractive as the finest
residences.
The past few seasons have seen a
marked growth in the distribution of
Coca-Cola in the Henderson territory.
The popularity of the drink over
nearly half a century is becoming
even more pronounced when backed
by modern business methods and the
the latest type of manufacture such
as that employed by Manager c. o.
Seifert in the Henderson plant

EFFORTS MADE TO
HELP THE TENANT
Governors of Southern
States Conscious of Ne
cessity for Action

Little Rock, Ark, Sept. 15-Gover-
nors of cotton growing states pledged
cooperation in a movement launched
by Gov. J. H. Futrell of Arkansas to
solve the south's year old farm ten
ant and sharecropper problems.
AS an initial step, Futrell called a
southwide conference to conduct an
impartial study of the tenancy ques-
cord in the cotton country since re-
construction days.
The executive, who announced his
intention to retire to private life at
the end of his term in January, in
dictated desire to devote the last
months of his governorship to this
work.
Moves to Name Board
He already has moved to name an
Arkansas commission, to form a nu-
cleus for the proposed southwide
group. Hot Springs, Ark, far remov-
ed from the troubled east Arkansas
sharecropper belt, was proposed for
the meeting place.
Futrell said he felt solution could
be worked out through cooperation of
federal and state agencies, indicat-
ing he believed a program for assist
ing tenant farmers in purchasing
their own farms through long-term
financing offered the brightest hope
for what he described as an under
privileged class"
Gov. James V. Alfred of Texas was
one of the first to pledge cooperation.
1.-THE governor of Arkansas has a
very worthy objective" said Alfred.
II am in complete sympathy with any
concerted move to change farm ten
ants into farm owners"
At Columbia, S. c., Gov. Olin D.
Johnston, the son of tenant farmer
said:
my father was a tenant farmer
and I worked as a boy on a tenant
farm, so naturally I would be inter
ested in anything that will aid the
farmers, especially the tenant farm
ers, of the state and nation "

Test Orange and
Tomato Juice For
Vitamin c. Value

Washington, Sept. 15.-Orange juice
contains from two to three times as
much vitamin G as tomato juice.
Either of the juices lose vitamin c
if allowed to stand before using.
These results are announced by work.
ers in the Bureau of Home Economics
u. S. Department of Agriculture in
an article published in the Journal of
Home Economics. The Bureau points
out, however, that when tomato
prices are much lower than orange
prices, it may be possible to get as
much or more vitamin G protection
per dollar from tomatoes.
The tests included both chemical
analysis and feeding trials Of four
varieties of oranges, two from Califor-
MIA and two from Florida-fresh
pressed juice of tomatoes and juice
from a brand of commercial canned
tomatoes. The juice of the California
Naval oranges was slightly richer
than the others but some of the others
were enough juicier so that the juice
from a fruit of equal size gave as
good or better protection. To obtain
the same protection from tomato juice
it would be necessary to give two or
three times as much juice.
The Investigators, Esther Peterson
Daniel, Mary H. Kennedy, and Hazel
E. Munsell, found that the canned
tomatoes which they tested contained
as much vitamin G as the fresh sam
pie. These tomatoes were grown in
different sections of the country and,
since there is a loss of vitamin c in
canning, these results raise the ques-
ton of the effect of soil and climate
upon the amount of vitamin c formed
in the plant.
The common household custom of
squeezing orange juice at night to
serve at breakfast causes loss of 10
percent or more of it's vitamin G
value, even though it stands covered
in a refrigerator. Tomato juice from
fresh or canned tomatoes also de-
teriorates when allowed to stand ex-
posed to the air. This may amount to
as much as a 40 percent loss if the
Juice stands for several days.

The United States has acted as me-

offers also have been rejected at
times, as in the Franco-Prussian war

No Hair-Line Decision
Since rejection of League of Ma
tions and world court adherence the
policy may have become emphasized,
But it was not merely hands off,
policy in internal affairs that influ-
enced the action regarding Spain, al
though that was accepted as suffi-
cient reason
The pulling and hauling by France,
England, Italy and Germany in the
Spanish situation magnified it far
out of the scope of mere peninsular
revolution. The state department
saw that any effort by the United
States to mediate in Spain likely also
would involve mediating interests of

Washington, Sept. 15-(AP)-Be-
hind this governments polite refusal
to act as mediator in the Spanish re-
volution lies frank recognition that
such a job ultimately might entail
ironing out dynastic, financial and
political troubles that have vexed Eu-
rope since the war.
In replying to Uruguays sugges-
ton that American states offer to
mediate in the Spanish affair, Will
liam Phillips, acting secretary of state
said the refusal was in conformity
with this governments policy of non
interference in the internal affairs of
other countries.
Casting back through Americas ex-
perience prominently discloses two
instances of American interference
in the internal affairs of other coun-
tries, notably China and Spain. It
was American intervention in SPAIN
administration of Cuban affairs which
brought on the Spanish war. SUBJ
sequent intervention in affairs of GER
tain Latin American republics might
also be mentioned.

The molds come in four shapes heart, spade, diamond and club shapes. The dough is packed into them, and when sufficiently chilled, is cut in slice, placed non the baking, and poped into the oven for quick baking.
 And speaking of slicing You can get a most expert looking slicer resembling those magic things the delicatessens have, for less than $5. The base is of hardwood and the circular blade of stainless steel, with a litle device to regulate the knife so 1t will cut slices as thick or as thin as you may wish.
