Some of our high schools get so excited over sport that one wonders if sport is the main object of going to high school nowadays. Banks will enable a man to do business without money, but he has got to do business to pay back the money, which is the troublesome part of the arrangement. Advertising tell8 the public what merchants are trying to do for them. There isn't a woman in Dillon county but who isn't as interested in the ads of merchants as she i? anything else in the paper, and it i3 up to the merchants to furnish this interesting Ingredient of the paper.

Washington, Feb. 26?This government is greatly concerned over the fact that Great Britian, which owes $4,500,000,000 to the United | States and has not even paid the interest has served an ultimatum and is threatehlftg military action against the tiny Central American nation of Costa Rica unless it immediately pays a debt of less than $2,000,000 due British bond holders, it was learned today. A similar ultimatum has been served by Great Britian on Salvador, another tiny Central American gov-^ eminent for the collection of $6,000,000 also alleged to be due British bond holders. j The British premier, Lloyd George and his immediate family, are direct-' 1 ly interested in the coercoin of Costa 'i ( T? ion oIda roA/vor?*;?? *u ,f J!1 * I uiov ivvugiuiit; H10 validity OI an oil and cocoanut concession grant-j1 ; ed by the Tinoco government to a British concern known as the Amoyl Sydicate, headed by Lord Cowdray.

C.. Feb. 26?North J Carolina now leads the entire Unit-' f( cu States with the highest birth rate ^ in the Union according to statistics( for 19 20 just compiled by the state , board of health. At the same time _ this state has one of the lowest death ^ rates. | , Reports during the past year show a total of 83,9 66 birth in the state.'y a rate of 3 2.8 per thousand. The deathH totaled for ihe same period 33,228, a rate of 12.9 per thousand. These figures do not include the stillbirths, which amounted to 4.171 for the year. |, During 1920 every six minutes a new life was born into the world every fifteen minutes another life was .j snapped off. That the births are so: far in excess of the deaths accounts for the large increase in the popula-J tion of the state during the last decade as shown by the last census fig- .. ures, for the state has had little increase by reason of immigration. o Cl n The following young ladies of Dil- b Ion county have beeu nominated in tl the contest for "Queen of Palmafes- tl ta:" Miss Louise Moore 10 votes b Miss Mary Bethea 10 votes w MisB Annie Henegan 10 votes n Miss Nell Good 10 votes tl Miss Marion Harvey 10 votes w Miss Ruin nt-quu n ? ? ?.? xv votes a, Miss Margaret Elliott 10 votes n Miss Christine Edwards __ 10 votes w Mis6 Myrtle Stubbs 10 votes Miss Ruth Able 10 votes G Miss Nell Smith 10 votes tl Miss Annie Coppedge 10 votes p Miss Helen McDowell 10 votes c< Miss Jane Gibson 10 votes a Miss Doris Caldwell 10 votes.u Miss Lacey Jackson 10 votes ^a a in ?hsii?i SB aulas & I L Moore*s Old le Unite to Mak ) Spring Suits, l discounts that may ind.
