Set of Buyers; Sales Supe rvisor Predicts Average
Around Is Gents at Opening

A flood of golden weed was pour
ing into Henderson warehouses this
afternoon in preparation for the open
ing tomorrow of the tobacco market
here, along with the nine other Middle
Belt markets, all of which getaway to
start for the season at the same
time. r. w. Mcfarland, sales super
visor for the market, said today he
anticipated a full days. sale opening
day. and predicted the average would
be around Is cents a pound.
First sales will be in the Big Hen
derson B and the Banner Warehouses.
Sales are to- start at 9. a. M and two
sets of buyers will be on hand for the
start to continue through the season.
To Welcome Farmers.
Talks to farmers will be made at
both warehouses having the first
sales, Mayor Henry T. Powell being
at one and City Attorney "A. A. Bum
in the other. It was not learned today
which warehouse either of them
would visit. It had been planned to
have Governor Hoey here for the
opening of the season, ;sut he could
not come on account of being in A.
lantic City at the annual conference
of governors, where he spoke yester-
day.
Advance indications pointed to a
fairly good quality of tobacco coming
in for the first days sales, leading
to the belief that the average price
would be satisfactory. Most of the
early arrivals were of Vance county
tobacco, and most Of it appeared to
be of good grades.
Business People To Attend.
The Henderson $500 Club has is
sued an appeal to business people to
visit the market on opening day and
mingle with the growers here for the
start of the season, and then to re-
turn as often as they can on other
sales days throughout the season.
Speeches of Mayor Powell and Mr..
Bum at the opening were arranged
by the club.
Last year the Henderson marked
sold 21,O98.25 pounds Of tobacco for
$5,212, 28O.90 for an average of $2480
per hundred. It was a short crop and

ROSE COTTAGE ONE
OF BEAUTY SPOTS.
Many Henderson Beach Visitors Dur
! ing Summer Guests for Time
At Summer House

Coming of September and the end
of the beach resort season called to
the mind of many today that prob
ably more Henderson people this sum-
| mer visited Virginia Beach and the
other resorts near Norfolk than ever
before in a single season. And most
of those who have been to that popu-
lar seaside recreation center have adj
mired, and many Of them have been
guests, even if for only brief CALL
at the beach cottage of Mr.. and Mrs.
p. H. Rose.
Without exception, those who visit
ed the Rose home were received with
the cordially and hospitality that
are so well known as genuine char
acteristics of the Rose family. 1t has
been the unanimous opinion that the
Rose beach home distanced any pri-
vate family quarters at the seaside
resort. It is the last word in beauty,
comfort convenience and pleasing
! finish. It fronts on the ocean prob
| ably 100 yards from the breakers, and
| the rear entrance is on the main
street of the beach town.
Some. intimate friends of the family
have been guests for several days at
different times, and others merely
called for a few hours. But all got
the same gracious reception and no
stone was left unturned to make them
feel perfectly at ease.
Mr.. Rose maintains year-round
office in Norfolk, where he has ex-
tensive business interests, as well as
his home office here of the chain of
| 102 stores he owns, and which he
founded in Henderson % years ago.
Hard work and intensive application
to his affairs have brought abound
ling success through the years and en-
titled him to the relaxation that is
now coming as the reward of siren
IEuous efforts in earlier life.
1 Fishing trips on the Rose yacht
have been the pleasure of many who
have visited the beach resort. Many
individuals in the store organization
here have had outings at the beach
front during the summer as guests
of Mr.. Rose, whose Willoughby pro-
perty has been used frequently by
them. With the summer gone, the
Roses have returned to their home
here for the winter season.
