EVEHY POUND SOLD IN AN INDIVIDUAL AIR -TIGHT TIN CAN II1ZIANNE coffee The Reily-Taylor Company New Orleans CAN'T ROCKINGHAM STAND ALONE? More than seventy dollars have boon sent to Rockingham from Wil mington to help build Midway Bap tist Church. Having studied over the situation, 1 have undoubtedly rightly concluded that this is not at nil necessary. Can't Rockingham build a little three or lour thousand dollar church? I am almost asham ed to receive monei from other com munities when we have so much wealth right here at home. Solo mon says, "He that givetli to the rich shall surely come to waul. I see-absolutely no use of other towns having to send money to Rocking ham to help build a church. This should be stopped at once. The bus iness men of other towns receive no direct benefit from the people of Rockingham. Why should they build our churches'? Who brings the bread and meat to Rockingham? The laboring man- the very man I am pleading for. Why borrow meal from your neighbor when your smokehouse is full? The thing foi every man in Rockingham to do is to give until this church is complet ed. A man from Laurinburg actual ly writes me, that, if nine men. oth er than members of our Midway organization, will give one hundred dollars each, he will send us a check for one hundred dollars. In the lace of existing condition, how could a Rockingham man of means excuse himself from such a fair offer as that? 1 am not grumbling: I am only stating facts. To tell the truth, few people have failed to respond Several have already made worth gifts. My brother, ttie way to get this noble work over with is to go little deeper in vour Docket. The man who can help, but will not can hardly help having strange and peculiar opinions of him. But I will find lew of these. 1 am sure glad that Rockingham has few of this type. Vou w ill do well to remember the proverb, "An open hand shall have something in it." .Respectfully, A. (.;. Melton, Pastor. X-RAY IN FLORIDA Editor Post Dispatch: I am on a ten day vacation and thought I would spend it in Sun ny Florida. We are having the sun shine allright; but my, it has been cold down here. I arrived at my brothers in Hawthorne, Fla., Jan. and we have had some ice for several mornings. S I have tried Tampa; it is lots warmer here and there is line market trucking all around and the markets are full of about all kinds of vegetables. 1 have passed through some very fine orange anil grape iruu groves ano many of the trees are still loaded. Tampa is full of Northern tourists: all hotels are lull up, but myself ind brother were lucky to secure a loom in the Hillshoro a very fine 10 story structure. Tampa has many fine, large hotels, but the Tampa Bay Hotel is the most beautiful 1 cut saw, wiih large, neauuiui grounds tilled with tropical trees and flowers.

Because"' I maintain three very extensive chemical laboratories in which all materials are thoroughly tested. No harm ful materials can ever enter into Royster goods. Our home and foreign markets are picked over for the choicest raw materials; then I formulate them in just the proportion which my life-time experience has found to be best for each crop for which the fertilizer is in tended. The results of all this care is, naturally, a complete mixture which" is really the "last word" in fertilizer. So, you see, I am justified in feeling proud of the Royster Products, which come from our fifteen up-to-date plants. H. S. Bonn A. R. McPk.il B0GGAN & McPHAIL Attorneys at Law ROCKINGHAM, N. C.
