Summer Rally Carries
Stock Market Higher
For 4th Week in Row
By Roder Wineet
Associated Press FinaneiaI Writer

NEW YORK, July %. - The
traditional summer rally this week
carried the stock market to with
in a short Jump of the big bull
market high.
For the fourth straight week
the stock market advanced, this
week with driving vigor equal to
the best week of the year.
1t wasn't a straight forward
movement. There was backing
and filling. Some major divisions
made a poor showing.
But Standout performers car
ried the whole market along with
them and gave a bullish appear
ance to the weeks trading.
The Associated Press average of
go stocks advanced $3.50 to $95. go.
The gain was equal to the best of
the year scored in the week ended
February 8.
A. P. Average Advances.
The Associated Press average
has not made larger advance
since it was up $40 in the week
ended September 8, 1899.
At the present level the stock
market now has regained more
than three-fourths of the loss in
the fall from the high of the year
in early May to the low of the year
In late June.
The four-Week upSweep has sat-
isfed many who fondly antici-
pated the traditional summer rise.
The bullish contingent looks for a
continuation of the rise, along
with the usual corrective dips.
They believe the rise has a pretty
good foundation because of the
expansion of volume. This week
it amounted to 7,863,O00 shares,
the best of the month.
But not every one was on the
bullish side of the market. The
bears mustered a lot of ammuni-
ton in their sniping at the bulls.
They contend that a great part
of the rise this week, and the
bulliSh aura surrounding trading,
came from the action of individual
issues responding with a jump to
proposals for splits and to rumors
of splits.
Examples of Gains.
Here is what four issues did on
the week as a result of split pro-
posals: Freeport Sulphur, up 1873
at 10112 National Lead, up 5l2
at 81; Merck & Co., up 11l2 at
1912, and Nickel Plate, up 26 at
217.
Fine earnings reports and in
creased dividends also put a lot
OF push behind the advance.
But these were offset to a de-
gree by lowered earnings reports
rejecting higher taxes, increased
operating costs and restrictions
due to Government controls.

Garden Time
RY ROBERT SCHMIDT

Raspberries and dewoerrleS
have lust about completed pear
ing for this season, and now is
the time to prune them. 10 un,
derstand why we prune them at
this time, we should know some
thing about the growth and fruit
ing habits of these crops. hasp'
berries and dewberries bear most
of their crops on new shoots that
come out of canes of last season S
wood, Each season, after bearing
a crop, these canes will die and
their place will be taken by ne"
canes which come up from the
roots of the plant. The old canes
therefore, should be removed DIS
soon as the crop is harvested.
This practice will give more room
for the new canes to develop as
we'll as to get rid OF dlseaseu
plant materials.
In Eastern North Carolina
slightly different procedure Is
used for dewberries. AS soon as
the crop is harvested, all canes,
both old and young, are removed
at the ground. Then the land IS
cultivated and a top-dresslng OF
nitrate of soda is given the
plants. In a few days new shoots
will appear and make sufficient
growth during the rest OF the
season to produce a good crop
the next year. This new growth
is allowed to run along the
ground and is not tied up TO
stakes until next spring.
This practice. as outlined, gives
a fair control of anthracnose di-
sease of dewberries. The plant
growth that is cut off at the
ground should be destroyed by
burning. In the mountain areas
the season is not always long
enough to permit the removal OF
new canes. In that case only the
old canes are removed.

CUIDEWAY'S NEW PRINCIPAL

open mindedness and the right kind of
cooperation with their new principal,
we believe that new era of progress
will be in existance in Guideway.
The situation is going to call tor
little giving and little taking by both
sides and a lot of cooperation from
both.
Long has taken over the task with
nc malice, no hard feelings, no thought
of being on one side or the other but
Just to do his dead level best to keep
the Guideway school ever on the road
to progress and greater educational
standards. His first thought now and
always will be the children who attend
that school, and he has our confidence
that he can do a good job.
We believe he has the confidence OF
his teachers, even though chaotic Sit
uation existed when Gaddy was remov-
ed. We believe that Greeley's attitude,
hard work and will to do what's right
will make him accepted and cherished
by all the good people of Guideway.
We have no faults with Mr.. Gaddy.
His record would indicate that he did
a fine job at Guideway. Yet, that cpl
sode is gone and should be forgotten.
The future is what counts and the
people, not the principal, have the pow
err to keep their school on the up grade
or to cause it's decline. The future of
the children is at their disposal.

Motorists Cautioned
of Travel Hazards

RALEIGH, N. C.-Motor Vehl'
cles Commissioner L. c. Rosser
today asked that vacation bond
motorists be especially cautious
when travelling the tobacco pro-
ducing regions of Eastern North
Carolina.
The Commissioner said that ne
had personally noticed a great
number of farm boys and girls
at work on tobacco sleds which
are usually pulled from field to
field along the shoulders of the
highway. These children, he add
ed, are prime targets for the
speeding Or careless driver.
Rosser was particularly anXi-
Gus for out-of-stat motorists to
heed the precaution. MANY OF
our tourists driving. through
North Carolina he said are puzzl-
ed at the bulky, mule drawn
sleds. He urged all motorist ap-
preaching the tobacco-laden sleds
to slow down and pass with eau
ton.
Children along the highway
the Commissioner said, should
be watched by the driver just as
closely as any road sign or
signal.

Greeley Long, the former Tabor City
high school boy whose athletic Prov
ness carried him near the top in the
professional boxing world, is busy these
days making plans and working out
details of his ew job as principal of the
Guideway school.
Only fighter like Long could
tackle the job and have confidence
that everything was going to work out
alright. The community for years has
been split over several issues and dur
ing the past year, that split reached
climax. The disagreement has arisen
over the proposed central high school
and over the custer of former Prlncl-
pal Gaddy.
But despite spirited protests by citi-
zens of some parts of the school district
when Gaddy was turned out, he never
theless has gone. And replaing him as
principal is Long, native of that COM
munity who recently graduated from
Eastern Carolina Teachers College and
who today is studying administrative
procedure there.
Long is faced with one of his tough
est fights unless the good people of
Guideway forget their differences and
pull together as c team for the good of
the school, their children and the COM
muaity. Should they look for faults
instead of the good, the Guideway
school will suffer. But with a little
