Not everything that is cheap is a bar
gain.
There’ll be room for you at church

The way to make dreams come true is
to wake up and start working.
Trading in Summerville is recommend
ed as a tonic to local prosperity.
One newspaper man suggests that pup
py love is the beginning of a dog's life.
Apparently there isn't any solution to
the taxation problem except to pay them.
The hardest job will get easy as you
come to its end. The way to get through
is to begin.
The man who learns to carry out in
structions will some day be the man who
gives them.
The best way to educate the children
properly is to begin on the parents when
they are young.
Any town that is big enough to pro
vide proper educational facilities and
cultural advantages for its children is big
enough to live in.
Advertising, according to many big
business men, is the cause of their suc
cess. Summerville merchants might try
it for a sustained period and see wheth
er it works here.
HERE'S A GOOD IDEA!
This will sing the praises of the offi
cials and police of Danville. Virginia,
who have launched a campaign against
motorists who press the buttons of their
strident automobile horns unnecessarily.
Policemen, it is reported, watch es
pecially for drivers caught in lines of
traffic who immediately blow their horns
the moment the green light appears.
Moreover, they keep an eye on the impa-

tient motorist who, when he has nothing
else to do. delights in blasting the air with
the pull output o his horn.
This is a good piece of work. We hope
the practice spreads throughout the
United States and that indiscriminate
users of automobile horns will be fined
until they learn better.
HOW TO LIVE LONG.
Readers of The News who find life
interesting and wish to live a long time
will he interested in the health advice f
Dr. Malcolm MacEaehern, of Chicago.
The Chicago surgeon says that every
body should work eight hours, play eight
hours and sleep eight in every twenty
i four. Moreover, people eat too much,
worry too much and overlook teeth, ton
sil and appendix infection.
The doctor urges a balanced diet. He
would end worry, which retards the func
tions of vital organs. It may be compar
atively easy for most people to secure a
balanced diet, but the prescription "end
worry” will# give many individuals a
harder job.
We are not expert in the affairs of
medicine, but, nevertheless, we suspect
that, the Chicago surgeon has the key to
good health and long life.
STATE BARRIERS TO TRADE.
Every State in the nation has some
sort of trade barrier legislation, accord
ing to Dr. F. E. Melder, economic advis
er to the Council of State Governments.
Many states enforce “buy-at-home”
laws to give preference to the produce
within their borders. This may benefit
local businesses, unable to meet outside
competition, but, in general, the taxpay
ers have to foot the bill.
The multiplicity of trade barriers that
exist in the United States seriously
threatens the continued existence of the
"free trade” policies which are generally
credited with playing an important part
in the internal development of American
industry.
This subject has been the cause of
considerable discussion recently in many
sections of the United States and, appar
ently. a concerted effort will be made to
eliminate these barriers as far as possi
ble. While one state may think it can
secure an advantage by erecting an arti
ficial barrier to trade from other areas,
this is short lived, because the habit
spre ids and the multiplicity of trade bar
riers tend to reduce the trade of every
state.
WREN TAKES COAT.
ROXBORO. N. C.—When (’. B. Ad
cock went to get his coat that he had
left hanging on a tree a day or two be
fore. he found a wren sitting serenely on
four tiny eggs which she had laid in an
inside pocket. Adcock will let the coat
remain until the wren can raise her
family.

and Martha Raye.
Rosalind Russell has been cast as
Sylvia in 'The Women’ and Louise Ho-
Vak will have the role of Mrs. Phelps

protests from fans denouncing the glori
fication of the gangster.

ters,’ will have the same principals in
the cast as the former picture with the
exception of John Garfield, who "died”
in ‘Four Daughter.’

in ‘The Hunchback of Notre Dame’ if
negotiations with RKO go through.

tures based on the Ten Commandments,
