Unless a person takes a trip i?t? '

nas and sees for himself the hue.
patches of cornstalks beaten to ulo '
ground, and other evidence, it is al- 1
most unbelievable that anywhere m !
North Carolina bears are a menace
to the crops.
One farmer who owns a tract of
the land which once belonged to tho
late Judge Makely, declares that in !
one 23-acre field he will this year lose
upwards of 500 bushels to bears. Ajid 1
what does the farmer do about the
losses caused by bears ?
During the summer, and early fall
they stand by helpless and only hope
that later in the season, before cold
weather causes the J^ars to go back
into the swamp- to indulge in their
winter sleep, they will have the op- '
portupity of catching them in huge
steel traps. J
Some are caught, but instead of
the animals getting scarcer they seem
to increase?especially since the game
-aw protects them during the spiing,
which is the breeding season.
Many of the tenant farmers try
their hand fit trapping bears. Some
are caught. To catch one bpar means
food for the farmer, and a skin which
on the St. Louis market brings from
$7 to $11. Considering that one of
the fellows can < damage that much 1
corn in a week it is a losing game for
the farmers. But they continue their
efforts and criticise a law that protects
animals.
Last year, an old time trapper from
the- northwest went to Hyde and had
fairly good luck trapping. He averaged
during the time around $35 a
week. His raccoon, muskrat, otter
and other small game pelts were
taken to the nearest shipping point
in wagons and trucks, but there were
very few bear skins among the lot.
When the trapping season?which
is a few weeks after the first frost--<
leally starts, boars have gone into |
their hollow trees.so far back in the
swamps that neither dog nor man can
find them. After sleeping all winter
they come back to the spring crops,
seaming to know that they are protected,
and carry on their destructive
escapades without having any fear of
being hunted.
Greht care must he taken in settirtg
a bear trapi They are the largest
steel traps made, and on the edge
of cornfields adjoining the swamps,
in paths which .seem to haveObeen
made by humans, a person is in great
danger of catching himself. -The
traps are not chained to a tree, because
if-such?wee?the- case-tho boar
when caught would pull his leg oflfc
leaving only, a hairy foot for the trapper.
Instead they are chained to
anchors which can be dragged; but
nbit successfully, by the* bears.
Usually when a catch has been
the animal is found 'within a
hundred or two feet of the ; place
where the trap was set. And the
bear is not taken without a struggle
gafiter being in the trap for a few
hours these Hyde county bruins are
ready to fight mhn or dog. It takes
a good sized rifle ball to kill them,
or big shot from a shot gun. The
eastern Carolina hears usually weigh
from 200 to 350 pounds.
During , the past year or two on
several occasions hears which had
probably been caught 10 years ago
and gnawed themselves free of the
traps have been takpn. Thesis three
legged animals are always'terrors to
the farming citizens, the natives say.

New Chevrolet Soon
Offered To j
I>ast?inif on to the motoring puhli&j
he benefit? of economies arising out]
)f tremendous volume production, the
Chevrolet Motor company introduces
'the Outstanding Chevrolet of Chevrolet
history? a Six in the price
ango of the Four," according to an
innouncement sent out by the Chevrolet
factory.
In making this announcement, W.
S. K uudson, president and general
manager, points out that the public
reception accorded the car in recent
/ears has enabled Chevrolet ttt this
time to olfer the added power, speed
and smoothness of six cylinder per j
formance at practically the same
prices that contributed so much to
the worldwide popularity of the four..'
Preparations for the greatest year
in its history are now being made by j
the Chevrolet Motor company. Production
of the new car was started
last week and the company's 15 gi^pt
factories across the country will be
turning out' cars to be shipped to
dealers by December 16. Deliveries
to the public will start January 1.
Although no-- definite schedule has
been set for 1929, Mr. Knudson de
clared that production of the new car
would probably exceed 1,250,000 units,
thereby surpassing all former records.
In its new offering, Chevrolet has
retained the valve-in-head principle.
The motor is of the high compressioi
type with a non-detonating head, and
develops 32 per1' cent, more power
than its, predecessor; its acceleration
is greater and its speed has been
stepped up to satisfy maximum re-1
quirements. The piston displacement
is 194 cubic inches.
Despite this improved performance j1
standard, thousands of miles of testing
under every road and weather
conditions at the General Motors
Proving ground in addition to many,
cross country runs, have shown that
the new Chevrolet engine will oper-j
ate with an economy averaging bet-'
ter than 20 miles to a gallon of gasoline,
according to the factory announcement.
The motor develops 46 horsepower
at ldw engine speed and as a result
of the automatic lubrication of the
valve mechanism the motor is excep-J
tionally quiet, throughout the entirq
speed range.
J ? *
Seven models of passenger earn
and three commercial types compi
ise the line,' which, according to
("Html Motors officials, embodies
the greatest dollar value ever offer?d
in an automobile. Included in the
pa>senger car line are five closed
?a<i two open-cmodels. All bodies
in.* y*ear carry the famous Fisher
Mump of craftsmanship. The commercial
car line embraces a new and i
latter utility truck of one and onehalf
ton capacity, a new Dght dollver>
chassis and the sedan unlivery.
From an appearance standpoint a?
Will ?s from inherent design, the
car is completely new with a wide
range of attractive colors and fine
car appointments formerly found only
on the more expensive makes.
Despite the score of advanced feat
ires, prices remain practically the
same, chiefly us a result of the influence
of tremendous volume production.
The passenger car range is
from $525 to $725 f.o.b. Flint, Mich.
The prices, according to models, are
as follows: Roadster, $525; phaeton,
$526; coach, $695; coupe, $596; sedan,
$675; sport cabriolet, $696; convertible
Landeau $725. The commercial
car prices are: light delivery chasi >,
$400; one and one-half ton utility
truck chassis, $545; one and one-half
ton utility truck chassis with cab.
$650 and the sedan delivery, $595.
All prices are f.o.b. Flint Mich.
Advance showings of the new
Chevrolet line will be held in leading
cities strategically located throughout
the country beginning November 24
and continuing until December 22.
First deliveries to purchasers will
start January 1. No deliveries will
be made prior to that time, officials
say.
Speed, acceleration, power and
smoothness, to an unusual degree,
are offered in the new motor. It is
of the high compression type, fully
inclosed and with a non-detonating
head. It has a three and five sixteenths
bore and a three and threequarters
inch stroke and a 194> cubic
inch piston displacement.
The motor develops 32 per cent,
more horsepower* than its predeces$>r
and has an abundant source of reserve
power for fast gateway, heavy
roads and steep grades. New featu
res that contribute to this . added'
power are an improved combustion
chamber; a newly designed cramshaft
and four exhaust and three intake
ports.
Tortional vibration is imperceptible
at any speed through the use of
a heavy 46 pound crank shaft which
is perfectly balanced statically and
dynamically.
The clutch is of the single plate
dry type and requires no lubrication.
The new rear axle is similar in design
to that used on the most expensive
earn. It is of the semi-floating
type with a strong, one-piece banjotype,
pressed steel housing.
Appointments are the richest and
most luxurious ever offered by Chevrolet.
. The seats are wider and more
restful. The driver's seat in all closed
models is easily adjusted, forward
or back, a feature recently introduced
on a few of the high priced
cars. The redesigned dash carries
an attractive grouping of all control
instruments indirectly lighted including
the new motor temperature indicator.
The steering gear is semi-reversible
of the ball bearing full worm and
gear type. The new shaft is solid, replacing
the tubular type formerly
used. It is mounted in a bracket securely
riveted to the frame. The 17inch
black finished steering wheel has
a rubber covered spider.
Dependable non-locking four wheel
brakes with rear service brakes in
two self-aligning segments contribute
to the quiet, safe operating feature
of the car.

Juvenile Murderers
William Mitchell, colored lad of Id
years, is dead, and 1'. R. Green and
Finest Green, brothers of nine and
eight years of uge respectively, have
been urrested charged with the murder
of Mitchell. Because of the
uges of the principals in the case,
something new in criminology in
Calhoun county is expected to develop.
The ulleged killing took place in
Fort Motte Saturday. A coroner's
jury empanelod by Coroner W. II.
Guskin assigned the blame on both
brothers, but it has developed that
the older of the two is principally
responsible for the killing of Mitchell.
The three children, according to a
story brought buck from Fort Motte,
were eating at the same table when
Mitchell is said to have taken some
sweet potatoes from the older of the
Green boys. An argument ensued,
after Nvhich Green went into another
room and removed a shot gun from
p shelf. He is said to have shot
Mitchell and then replaced the gun on
the same shelf.?Calhoun Times.
With a gaping wound in his abdomen
caused by an accidental shot .
from his own gun, Archie Lane, 18yonr-old
son of Mr. and Mrs. Holland
Lane of the Cartersville-Lamar section
was found in Lynche's River
Swamp late Friday afternoon by his
brother who, alarmed over his absence
from home, had gone in search
I of him. A' few minutes^ after' the
mortally wounded boy had tol'd his?
brother hotf the gun had discharged
its load into his body as he slipped
| and fell over a log, he died. ?
