DISCOUNTS
Every person in this day of rising costs wants to
make his money go as far as possible.
Such person can do that here. We not only give full
money’s worth and more in our goods, but also with every
ten cent cash purchase we give you a card and these cards
in the different numbers, are good for various useful and
valuable articles of Rogers silverware. This is your dis¬
count.
Our line of Skirts, Shirt Waists, Middy Blouses,
medium priced Skirts, House Dresses, and staple Shoes
and 5 and 10 cent goods, is unusually attractive and
varied.

Consistency
TT Y OU want a motor car that will
serve you consistently. You
want to know that your car can
be relied upon day in and day out.
You want high mileage per gallon of
gasoline and freedom from repairs
and readjustments. And you want
these things, not occasionally, but
continuously—day after day.
On these qualities the Maxwell has
made good. It has proved its worth.
When the Maxwell stock touring car
set the World’s Motor Non-Stop
Mileage Record a short time ago it
travelled for 44 consecutive days and
nights and its performance was con¬
sistent.
It went about 500 miles each and
every day. It went within a small
fraction of 22 miles to every gallon
of gasoline. It went the whole dis¬
tance of 22,000 miles—probably fur¬
ther than you would travel in two
years—without any repairs or read¬
justments. Every one of eight tires
(two sets) went just about 9,800
miles and the others finished in good
i shape. For consistency and relia¬
bility this record far excels anything
we ever heard of.
You can get a Maxwell, an exact
duplicate of the record breaking
stock car, on the partial payment
plan we have perfected. All you
M have to do is to make the initial
payment, then take the car and
pay the balance as you ride. The
unusual value of the Maxwell, to¬
- gether with
N of purchase, our is easy payment plan
bound to dispose of
our allotment of cars very quickly.
Better make your reservation now,
delivery later if you prefer.

PINE GROVE ENJOYED
“TEMPEST AND SUNSHINE”
The play, “Tempest and Sunshine”
was very ably presented at Pine
Grove school Friday night to a very
appreciative audience.
The players, composed of a group of
pupils and former pupils of High Point
school, showed much talent in render¬
ing their several parts.
The play is taken largely from the
hook, Tempest and Sunshine, by Mary
J. Holmes, and the prinicpal charac¬
ters in it are true to their counter¬
parts in the hook.
Sunshine, the favorite daughter of
Old Josh Middleton wins admiration
at once by her pretty face and baby
ways, and Josh Middleton does too,
with his generosity, heartiness and
simplicity, in spite of his contempt
for all conventionalities and his rough
manner.
The fiery, impetuous character of
Tempest adds greatly to the interest
of the play; but, though she is hand¬
some, she is too utterly without prin
ciple to attract as her sister does. This
character was excellently rendered.
Put the most enjoyable features arc
those in which the old time darkies
enter. The scene in which the ghost
walks, and rouses the superistitious
terror of the negroes is very laughable.
The play is full of life and easily
holds the attention of the audience
throughout its length.
The people of Pine Grove are well
known for their courtesy to strangers
and their treatment of the High
Point visitors found no exception to
the rule.
