We extend a warm welcome
to our new Second
Hand, James F. Bailey, who
comes to us from Greenville.
Hope he will like his job and
that he and his wife will like
our community. Understand
they are fishermen so they
should find plenty of kindred
souls in Clinton.

Evelyn and Gholdie led them

I have been told all my
life that folks went coon
hunting at night but A. A.
Barker came home on a rerent
Sunday afternoon with
a 14 pound one, so I guess

when you find them. He was
hunting hickory nuts but got
the coon instead.

Selling cloth or any other
merchandise nationally on a
branded basis, which means
using a brand name, involves
a great many factors which
our mills do not feel like
going in to at this time.
Nevertheless, as a part of its
future planning, trial shipments
have been made to
several customers from New
York using the new tickets.
Most of these have gone to
a large chain of Carolina department
stores although
much cloth is sold to this
chain, only a very little has
carried our two trade marks.
