TALK ON CLASSIFIED

\ "OO many classified adver-
tlsements are written to
Y satisfy the advertiser rather
\ than to make an appeal to a
y prospective customer.
'| This is why many statements
\ get into advertising copy which
y are of no interest to the reader.
K The prospective customer wants
\ to know the quality and price of
I the merchandise.
Good advertising copy so &C
y curately describes the articles
being offered that little remains
to be added when the customer
J calls to inspect.
( Superlative expressions should
be avoided, lest the customer be
disappointed when he views the
merchandise. Rather, modestly
J describe your goods in the ad-
vertising so they may be found
better than represented. That
is always gratifying and usually
promotes a sale.
A controversial statement,
even if true, invites a challenge.
A Superlative statement creates
too high an expectation. After
J all, when dealer is described
( as reliable and an article as
. good, little more need be said.

Duke Victor
Over Carolina

Chapel Hill. Feb. l2.--!)uke Uni

back in the last three minutes OF tne
game Saturday night and defeated
North Cardinals basketball team
50-44. The victory placed the Blue
Devils Of Coach Eddie Cameron
securely on their rung atop the
Southern Conference ladder.
The Tar Heels had things their
own way in the first half. While
George Glamack was hitting the
basket for sixteen points. The last
half was another story, as the tall
Carolina star was held to only
three foul shots by the excellent
guarding of Chuck Holley and Bill
Mock.
Clyde Allen, Mock and Cy Vala-
SEX led the Duke play in 4 thrill
ing second half which roked along
with Carolina keeping ahead on
free shots until the Blue Devils shot
out ahead
rhe victory was Dukes ninth III
conference plav this season against
one loss. North Carolina has won
eight and lost two. Duke leads in the
Big Five race with five victories
for a clean slate.
A capacity crowd OF 5000 watched
the ding-dong battle between The

Il find that while funds were
solicited there was no pressure APP
piled or suggested to secure contrI-

improper and ill-advlSed, ana thefs
will be no further solicitation among
the patrol or any other employees.
I'm this connection | think II mlghl
be we'll to say at this time that II
must be understood that all heads ol
departments in the state government
have a perfect right to support With
in proper bounds the candidate OF
their choice for governor or any otner
office in the primary, but II must
likewise be recognized that TINS
same right applies equally to every
employe Of each department, and nc
pressure should be eXerted by headS
of departments or those in authority
to control the action OF employees.
This applies not only to the rev.
enue department, but to the highway

Chapel Hill, Feb. 12.-The Nc
Crazy Eagles, strong semi-pro qulnt
from Asheboro which gave Caro-
lima such a close call at their last
meeting, come here Tuesday nlght
for the Tar Heels only home game
this week and next 10 their last
home contest of the season.
The White Phantoms nosed OUT
the Eagles 1873 before, but George
Glamack's Is points were all that
saved them, and if the big center
is not on his game again, TUESDAY
night may be another story.
The McCrary outfit is made up
of several former college stars
headed by Bill Mann from Duke
Roye from Elon, and Hollenan from
Atlantic Christian. The Eagles nave
met some Of the best college teams
in the State this year and played
them on even terms. and they nave
a reputation as one Of the strongest
independent clubs in North caro-
lima.

Textile Activity Reaches

reaction OF az election year-and
particularly this election year; the

ALI these add up to a great big
GueStiCn-marK.
In addition there is the strictly
textile factor OF the tWo-ycar cycle,
Cur index for the last decade shows
that with the single exception OF
the year 1886. odd years were up
in textile activity. and even years
we're down.
SO. 1910 should lie down. We
tHinl1 il will be- We would hazard
i guess that textile mill activity

between 1888 and 1859 But that's
nothing to worry about. That would
* 4 Scod year.
Moreover. We have a bunch that
the average return 10 textile manu-
GacturerS will be better. and more
stable, IN 1910 than in l929-With
the possible exception of certain
specialized branches. On the whole.
this writer feels that textile manu-
facture has come out of its many
vicisSitudeS and is now 4 more sta
bic zone Of operation than it has
been in any year since its private
depression started - 12c|@. We are
not writing these words casually;
re have given a good deal Of
thought to them.
Furthermore, we believe that
textile manufacturers viii spend
much more of their gross income
for plant Improvement during the
next decade than they did during
the last. Not because they want to,
but because they have to. The wage
hour law, the chronological! advance,
the increase in synthetic-fiber use
all force 4 textile manufacturer
to modernize his plant-or else"

Daily dispatch ICrcau,
In the Sir Winter Giutcl.

Raleigh, Feb. 1z.-The Brewers
and North Carolina Beer Distributors
Committee has been active in almost
half the SO North Carolina counties
in which beer is sold, and its agent
will have visited every one OF them
before close Of the current year,
Colonel Edgar II. Balm, chairman OF
the committee, said today.
Sale OF beer is prohibited by law
in Yancey and Mitchell counties, Iii!
in A OF the remaining SO counties
the committee has made surveys and
in most of them has taken definite
action toward its announced cbjcc-
tive of Clean Up or Close Up.
PETITIONS Tor revocation Of eight
licenses are being filed today in five
counties (Edgecomoe, Craven, Mar
tin, Pasquotank and HayWood), Col.
Balm said
Reviewing activities since last
September |, he pointed out that
there have been as revocations iii
~ counties, one dealer was placed Oh
probation in lredell county. In all,
1863 beer outlets have been invcsti-
gated. In addition to the As dealers
whose licenses were revoked SO deal
ers nave been warned to clean up
or face close UP action. Most of them
corrected the Objectionable condi-
tons, Col. Balm said, although in
some cases it was necessary to follow
up with revocation petitions. Some
ten have not yet been re-checked but
will be in the near future.
Colonel Balm expressed satisfac-
ton with the progress of his CAM
paign. He pointed to 27 commenda-
tory edltorials.in 10 North Carolina
newspapers as evidence that the
committees efforts are appreciated
More than ever, law enforcement
officers are Cooperating, he said.
"The public, too, is becoming more
interested. The people are beginning
to take our advertising seriously
they are reporting outlets which they
consider undesirable"
