The meeting to be held here IS one
of series being held in nearly every
county of North Carolina by teams
from State College, who are sweeping
over the State contracting growers 10
explain the new farm act to farmers
and others interested.
Following collapse OF the voluntary
sign-up campaign after meeting IN
Raleigh Thursday, little will be done
until these meetings have been held,
Mr.. Sanders said. He was of the OPP
inion that the best course to pursue
now by way of limiting the produc-
ton of tobacco this year was through
intensive and strict compliance with
the provisions of the soil conservation
act.
Tobacco growers may receive as
high as $40 per acre for tobacco land
planted to soil building or soil con-
serving crops. Cooperation will be en-
tirely voluntary on the part OF the
grower. but a committee will pass on
compliance by the individual with the
requirements of the act before henetlt
payments are made. Agricultural au-
thorities are strongly urging growers
to hold this years tobacco acreage
down to 70 percent of the base under
the old AAA program.
The voluntary sign-up, proposed by
Governor Ehringhaus of North Caro-
lima. was abandoned when representa-
tives from Virginia and South Caro-
DINA failed to show up for a meeting
in Raleigh Thursday. 1t is understood
that a sign-up is proceeding in Geor-
gia, however, but what progress it is
making has not been learned here.

DARING BRITISH MAGAZINES TELL STORY OF KINGS FRIENDSU
umors On
Divorce Fly
Copyright 1886 by United PressI

LONDON, Oct. %. (UP)
All England learned to-
day that King Edwards AM
erican friend, Mrs. Ernest
(Wally) Simpson, has sued her
home-loving husband for divorce.
Two daring British news mag
azines, Cavalcade and the Weekly
News Review, discussed respec-
lively. the divorce and the posi-
bility of the king marrying a
commoner. Both articles, how
ever, have been written with re-
straint.
Until now, the entire British
press voluntarily had refrained
from mentioning the divorce suit,
although it was the subject of avid
gossip in exclusive Mayfair circles.
Cavalcade said that a single
American news agency sent more
than 5000 words about the king
and Mrs. Simpson on one night
last week and that other Ameri-
can news organizations sent equal
amounts while not one word was
printed by British newspapers the
next morning.
1.-THE excitement started with the
following cable flashed to the CHI
cago Daily News: Petition divorce
been filed Ipswich Assize court
behalf w. Simpson against E.
Simpson. Petition will heard on
or about 1927. Address PLAINTIFF
understood be Theodore Goddard,
solicitors, 10 Sergeants Inn Lon
don, and defendant Middleton,

Under the heading king and
Commoner' the Weekly News Re-
view said:
From musty statute books and
precedents constitutional lawyers
last week ferreted out the infor-
nation that King Edward need
not marry a royal princess but may
wed a commoner."
The magazine cites royal mar
riages under the act of 1772, al
fecting descendants of King George
| II.
King Edward is descendant
of King George II.
"The only limitation on the
kings choice of a bride is that
which forbids him to marry O.
Catholic" the Review said.
King Edward, on a shooting par
ty at his Sandringham estate, sig
nalized the courts emergence to-
day from nine months formal
mourning for his late father by
appearing in a green Tyrolean hat
decorated with a bright red cord,
and brown plus-fours. He partl-
cipated in his first shoot OF the
season, being in the field from
early morning to late afternoon.

Studying the Homes of Others Makes It Easier to Plan Gu
Care of Arms
And Elbows
BY DONNA GRACE

The girl who wears formal
dress frequently Is sure to give
her arms and elbows Just as
much care as she does her face.
but the young LAZY who wears the
formal dress only occasionally
may overlook tbs very important
part of her daily grooming.
Arms and elbows will respond
very readily to the right kind of
attention, but one cannot neglect
them until the time comes to
display them in an evening gown.
Even If you are sure you may
not wear formal clothes more
than several times during the
season, you cannot afford to neg
lect your arm massage.
The elbows especially will al
ways need a soothing lubricant
and regular scrubbing with a soft
brush and creamy soap lather to
keep them smooth and white.
You can easily have nice elbows
for your next party, If you will
just begin with your soap bath
first.
We believe this should be done
during your regular tub bath.
Use your bath brush with a
handle to scrub the back and
shoulders, then rub the elbows
and also the brush with plenty
Of soap-enough to work into a
kind Of soft lather. Use this
brush with a light circular stroke
around the elbows and take a
few moments scrubbing for each
arm.
After that be careful to rinse
off every trace of the soap. Then
dry thoroughly by brisk rub
with a turkish towel. II the skin
is sensitive; omit the towel rub
and pat the arms dry.
The next step in the operation
is to cover the arms with tissue
cream or an oily cleansing cream.
Work on the left arm first and
begin the message with the right
hand and stroke from the wrist
to the shoulder with a circular
movement around the elbows.
Then repeat the massage on the
right arm.

That letter to Bob! Helen
doesn't want it to sound stiff
and formal or gushy and silly,
or just dull and trivial.
Yet what is there to write
about? Bob is in a big city,
going around a lot, seeing peo'
pie, and news of the dull doings
of herself and her quiet little
world will surely bore him, she
thinks.
But will they? Yes, If she pro
duces a letter like this:
Dear Bob,
"I've been so busy I couldn't
get around to write before. ]
hope you are well. We are all
fine. Not much news to tell
you. Nothing ever happens here.
I guess you are having a fine
time in Center City.
And so on. Life couldn't be
as gray and dull as that letter
makes it sound, not even in a
penitentiary!
AS a matter of fact. Helen's
day has been fairly interesting.
Full of pleasant little matters
that may not be important to
Bob, but-that isn't the point!
Things don't need to be impor'
tant to sound interesting on
paper, in a friendly letter.
Let's see what she might have
written:
