Robin Zemp's Drug Store Phone 30 Delivery A Creature of Weakness. There is universal regret in Gaff ney and throughout Cherokee becauso of the situation in which A. B? Kirby finds himself. Albert Kirby belongs to one of the oldest and best families of the finest women in this section and to their- union has come severa^ bright children. When quite a young man Kirby engaged in business. For some rea son his first business ventures did not "pan out" as the old miner would say. Mayhaps his failure to succeed was due to tfyat undeveloped trait which later brought him into trouble, and then, perhaps}, it was duo to incompe tency, which only developed the smothered tendency to irregularity. At any rate Kirby attempted a "come-back", and this time he was regarded as a "wonder." He appar ently built up' a splendid business. He was regarded as a phenomenal success. His name was blazoned on the horizon as one of the South'* greatest seed merchants. He opened a branch in Charlotte. His trade ex tended over the entire .Southland. He gained the confidence of bankers and business men in both Carolinas. He was a leader in the industrial, civic and religious life of this community, ami everybody was singing his praises. Finally the bubble burst once more and the Kirby Seed Co. went to the wall. A number of hjs friends were caught in the crash. Undaunted, he essayed another "come-back." This time under the name of the (ieorgia-Carolina Seed Co. He induced some gentlemen from Atlanta to back him this time and in a few. years it developed that all was not well with the GafTney branch of the Georgia-Carolina Seed Co., so this business was closed out, the gentle men front Atlanta losirTg quite a sum. Then Kirby went to Spartanburg, where he tried it again. Still anothe. failure awaited him there. And now comes the climax ? he receives a pris on sentence for using the Unite. 1 States mail to defraud. WV share in the sorrow of his , friends over the unfortunate outcome of his operations. We had trusted him and believed in him and no one has been more disappointed in him than we. We would not say anything unkind about him. We believe he is one of those unfortunate beings who has in an unguarded moment allowed himself to overstep the bounds of the law. Certain it is that he does not possess a vicious nature. He has ever been kind hearted and liberal. He i-> simply the creature of weakness. Kirby deluded himself with the idea that he was smart enough to accom plish the impossible feat of walking the tight, rope which separates hon esty and dishonesty without, tailing. Hut he couldn't do it and he fell, and in tin- falling he landed in the arms of the minions of the law. Most of the crime committed in this world is committed by men and wo men who conceive the idea that they are Ninartei than the officers. They think they can violate the law and gel away with it. It makes no difference I that out of 100 other violators of have been detected, captured and con victed. They allow their egotism to persuade 'riem that they are too cun ning to be trapped. And that is where they fall dow n. I )on'l be deluded int<> the belie' that you ca'i violate the law and es cape the <-i in sequences. You might: be able to d?> it a short while but some day the strong arm <>f the law \ nil 'east ejvect it.? GafTney Ledger.

They'll foul your plugs, drip all over everything, and make a lot of smoke for the fellow behind you. Besides, they're handing out tickets for smoky exhausts around here these days." The Fleet Boss knows from experience the waste fulness of too much oil as well as the danger of too little. The safe rule is to use plenty of good reli able oil and to change it every 500 miles regularly. You can always depend on the high quality of "Standard" Motor Oils, for they are based on fifty five years' experience in refining. If you believe that experience counts in oil refining as it does in every other line of business, ask for "Standard" by name. STANDARD OIL COMPANY (New Jersey) OILS' Y O U - CAN ? T R U S T j
