the popular flavors, and in bulk from
gallon quantities down to cones and
cups. 1t is distributed in any of these
sizes at both the stores in Henderson,
one of which, known as the Gold Seal
store. and located on Garnett street
south of the Industrial Bank, was the
first to be opened here, and the
other, known as the Ice Cream
Sheppe, further north on Garnett
street, next to the E. G. Davis &
Sons department store. Complete
fountain service is also offered at the
latter store.

{. C. DAVIS & SONS

One of Oldest Firms In Sec
ton; r. c.. S. Davis Man
ages Business

1t is a rare exception that a bus
mess continues steadily active for
half a century, but E. G. Davis &
Sons Company of Henderson is one
that goes even that one a lot better
The company is this year observing
it's sixty-first anniversary, having
been established in 1875.
The late E. G.. Davsi was the found
er of the business sixty years ago
this year. and he was active in it UNI
til his death in 1922. For many years
he was known as one of the sound
est business leaders in the city.
Some time after the establishment
of the store in 1875, George A. Rose
was taken into the company He re-
manned until 1902 when he withdrew
to form his own company.
Bob Watkins was then taken into
the concern as partner, and that
relationship lasted for several years,
at which time the name E. C. Davis
and Sons Company was adopted, and
by that title it has been operated
ever since.
The firm is now a corporation and
is the oldest department store in
Henderson, and probably anywhere
in this part of the State r. C. S.
Davis is the president of the present
corporation. He has been active with
the business since 1904, and is one of
the outstanding merchants and bus
mess leaders in the city.
The store began operations in 1875
IN the location now occupied by the
Hughes Furniture Company Some
years later it was burned and was
moved to the present location in 1885.

NRA ANSWE Err
BY PRESIDENT
DUE FRIDAY
BY EARL GOODWIN

Will President Roosevelt answer
the insistent demands by his OPP
ponent, Governor Landon, who
repeats the statement made by
James Roosevelt, son Of the Pres
ident, that the Chief Executive
plans to revive NRA?
So far, President Roosevelt has
done very little answering, being
content with defending and ex-
planning various phases OF his
Administration-and so far never
coming within touching distance
Of MIRA. If he touches on NRA at
all, or anything approaching 1t,
he may do it Friday night when
he speaks on hook-up by which
he will be heard from the White
House at Is dinners of business
men scattered throughout the
country.
Laugh at LandOn
At the moment, the Roosevelt
defenders laugh at Governor Ian
den for bringing son Jimmy into
the campaign. They say the Kan
saE governor is now running
against Roosevelt Junior. At the
same time the Roosevelt oppoSl-
ton is bearing down on the r1dlc-
ulous phases of NRA, and leaving
out any references to tn a un-
fortunate experiment, which could
be interpreted as an attack on
labor. since organized labor was
very strong for the shortened
hours and higher pay promised
under the Blue Eagle.
It will be recalled that George
Berry, a labor union leader and
now at the front for President
Roosevelt in Labor's Nonpartisan
League, was digging into the
wreckage of NRA to find out what
could be salvaged for everybody's
good. When Mr.. Berry was de-
scribed as reviving NRA he made
a hot denial; at the same time, Ad-
mlnistration friends have always
kept alive the idea that many bust
ness men in addition to labor lead
ers believed something akin to
NRA could be revived without dit.
ficulty.
To Press Program
Whether or not the President
answers Governor Landon, there
is a growing belief that the Presi-
dent, If reelected, will present as
part of his Second-term program
legislation for reduced hours OF
labor. Some Of the observers who
have travelled with the President
point out that about the only indi-
cation the President has made as
to a future program was at Detroit
when he made a gesture in the di-
rection of shorter hours for labor.
Political leaders will watch
carefully the dash into New Eng
land and back today. tomorrow
and Thursday. This is certainly
a foray into the enemy's country,
although the President has been
told he has chance of taking
Connecticut, Rhode Island and
Massachusetts,. Those who work
with the President and travel with
him know that the Roosevelt be-
lief is now that he will win with
425 electoral votes out of 531.
There is certainly no feeling Of
pesSimism at the White House. If
the President is defeated his Off
cial family will be 100 per cent
surprised.
