In loving memory of my dear hus-
band, James T.. Boone, who passed
away November 8. 1926:
a face that is ever before us,
A voice that we cannot forget:
A smile that will last forever,
In memory we see him yet.
Fond were the ties that were broken.
Dear is the one that is gone:
In memory we shall always keep him
As long as the years roll on.
Wen be glad to see you again some-
day
AS we pass through the realm of space
And touch your hand and see you
smile
AS we meet you face to face
Always missed.

June and mid-July, according to
the monthly survey by the Bureau
Of Labor Statistics, u. S. Depart
ment of Labor.
Higher prices for eggs, dairy
priducts, and meats were the chief
factors in the rise over the month.
Between March and July, the rise
in food prices averaged 1.9 per-
cent which is approximately equal
to the usual seasonal increase over
this 4-month period.
The Bureaus Retail Food Price
Index for July was 16~ percent
about year ago and LOG percent
above the August 1889 INDEX
reaching new peak for the second
consecutive month.
Egg prices jumped more than
seasonally-11 percent on the aver
age-between mid-June and mid
July as result of strong demand,
declining production, and abnorm-
ally low storage stocks. Advances
were reported in all cities, ranging
from 5 percent to 16 percent.
Prices of dairy products rose
more than 4 percent, the relatively
short storage stocks of butter and

LETTERS 10 the Editor

Dear Editor of The Sun:
We certainly admire the courage
displayed in yoru Editorial of Aug
ust %, speaking against the ruth
less killing among Negroes, both on
the Eastside and the Buckeye Road.
Every decent citizen, white and
Colored should speak out publicly
and commend you for having the
courage to attack this disgrace
through your paper.
It is true, until you publicly at
tack this evil, there was very little
said about the killing of Negroes
by Negroes on the East Side. I
checked the records back to 1889
on these killings, found that to date
more Negroes have been killed on
the East Side than on the Buckeye
Road or West Side, and 3 of the
Negroes killed on Buckeye Road
were killed by outlaws who lived
on the East Side and in Casa
Grande. Subtract these from our
killings and you will find that we
are eight points behind the East
Side killings.
My point is, let the four hundred
on the East Side speak out against
the mass numbering over there
same as on Buckeye Road. What
the better class of Negroes should
jointly do, is to let our Courts know
that we are not satisfied when a
Negro kills Negro and is unduly
set free, and when a Negro hap
pens to kill white man under the
same shade of evidence, as I see it,
give the Negro life or the cnair, il
the evidence warrants. I have no
objections I believe that in the case

If you are one of those dieters
who fears that ice cream may be
fattening, yet finds it difficult to re-
sist your favorite dessert on a hot
day, you will be interested in this
little story and it's recipe.
1t deals with an ice cream that
contains three times as much milk
and orange juice as cream, without
sacrificing any of it's rich, full flavor
and smoothness. The deceptively
expensive looking parfait pictured
consists of this ice cream, combined
with a lengthwise slice of banana, a
dab of whipped cream, a trickle of
whipped currant jelly and cherry.
II you are very, very sensitive about
your weight you may even eliminate
the whipped cream. -
This rennet-custard ice cream is
smooth and full-favored in spite of
the fact that it is made without
eggs and with approximately one
fourth of the total liquid in the form
of cream - half to one-eighth as
much cream as is usually used. 1t
requires no cooking, is easily di-
gested and has much lower caloric
value than the usual tasty of this
type.
Follow these simple directions
and you'll have a dessert that will
delight - whether you are a dieter
or not:

The story begins back on April
IS when seven Fender county resi-
dents went fishing for shad and
a sturgeon became entangled IN
their net. They ..auled it in, and
found they had caught a whopper
that measured eight feet, two lnch-
es from steam to stern and weigh
ed 312 pounds.
Thew had the fish dressed and
stored in a Burgaw freezer locker
along with &c pounds Of sturgeon
coe-or caviar as it is better
known-which was discovered IN
the cleaning process.
Along came Game Warden E. L.
Nicholson and called the fisher
mems attention to regulation mum
Der 1853 of the Department of Con-
servation and Development which
says "It shall be unlawful to take
catch or have in possession stur-
geon taken from the waters. OF
North Carolina"
Leon H. Corbett, Burgaw attor-
-ney and one of the fishermen, said
that Nicholson confiscated the stur-
geon-and the caviar and turned
over to a Wilmington hospital and
swore out warrants for the seven
fishermen charging them with vio-
lating regulation number 1853.
Corbett pointed out that the Con-
servation department has another
regulation, number nine, which
says that i: shall be unlawful for
any person to catch, sell or have
in his possession any sturgeon less
than five feet in length. and he
said that the state supreme court
has frequently held that where
there is a conflict in the law, all
doubts shall be resolved in favor
of the defendant.

and close in different belts at dill

in which markets once operated

be re-established. Frequently
there is great contention between
