A business can be increased from month to month with the enthusiastic effort he puts into it.

The opportunity we have in mind is that of distributing the finest product of a great industry to large users and retailers.

One of our clients, whose business development we have helped to guard and build during the depression years to its greatest success in the 14 years of its business history, is now ready to expand its distribution into additional markets. No other product that aspires to be similar can match our client's product in quality, performance or the very effective and high grade manner in which it is sold. And the price is no higher than that of otherj products of the industry.

We are not just looking for a salesman, but the man who meets our client's qualifications must have a comparatively small amount of capital enough to finance his stock, accounts receivable and operation expenses. A long proven sales procedure and ample sales training and cooperation-will be furnished to help him. You may arrange an appointment with our client through us. We. then suggest that you talk with your own banker or any friends who have made a success of their own business.

His travels enabled him to achieve tlv uniaue distinction of making the first broadcasts on both ends of the New York-Sydney, Australia, radio circuit The evolution of the "Believe It or Not" proerams to their present form has followed a broadcasting trend toward drama When Riolev first went on the Ptir, he presented his amazing cts much in the same way as present day commentators, as a monologist between musical interludes. The introduction of living "Believe It or Nots" as guest stars opened the wav to the dramatization of other amazing facts, including the historical spots that now are regular part of every program.

MOTHER TESTIFIES That whiskey was the cause of it all was part of the testimony of Mrs. Frank White, widow of the dead man and mother of the defendant, who took the stand during the inquest here this morning. The mother testified that her son hurled the chair at her husband as the latter was advancing on the younger man with an iron poker in his hand. Mrs. White said that her husband drank heavily and that on frequent occasions the elder man quarreled with his son, Louie.

The mother added that her husband frequently knocked her son down while he was drinking. There was some conflict in the testimony of this and other wit nesses who told of a number of fights between father and son. The widow of the dead man was the first witness to take the stand at the inquest. She asserted that "drinking was the cause of it all. Lots of times Frank would come home drunk and jump on me when inea io iaiK 10 mm.

ouiueimica I had to call the law." She testified that last Thursday her husband came home after he had been laid off at the mill. She said that she could detect that he had been drinking when he came to dinner. She said she reminded her husband he had promised to quit drinking and that he yelled at her and picked up the poker and threatened to strike her with it. She said that she ran out of the room and into that part of the house occupied by her son, Louie, for protection. The husoana ioi- lowed, she stated.

SON HURLS CHAIR 'He raii.d up the iron and was about to hit me when Louie pick ed up a chair and threw it at his father," she cestinea. Mrs. White said that soon as the younger man saw that his father had been badly hurt, he dropped to his knees and began praying. Several other witnesses including Mrs. Louie White, wife of the defendant, testified along much the same line as did the elde Mrs.

White. M. J. Morris, a neighbor, said that he had seen Frank White during Thursday morning and that he was not drinking. Askea by Coroner J.

Olin Burton if he thought than Frank White was treated "as a husband and father should be treated" he answered negatively. The witness said that as long as Frank White was employed, everything was all right, but that when he was out of employment White came to his house "and said he had been run off." Another witness. George Shaw, testified that he had seen Louie White hit his father with a brick. Several other witnesses testified as to the altercation and as to pre vious trouble which had occurred between the father and his son.

25. In order that there might be no suffering among several hundred families In two textile communities of Anderson county where curtail operations have been put into effect, members of the Anderson county legislative delegation this morning moved quickly 'to provide funds with which commodities will be purchased for use of these textile operatives who for the time being are without employment. Senator J. B. Pruitt of the delegation, who called the meeting after being acquainted with the situation and the possibility that there might be suffering among many persons affected by the curtailment, announced that the delegation had pledged the sum of $2,200 for emergency use during the next two weeks for the benefit of certain families of the Orr Cotton mills here and the Chiquola Manufacturing company of Honea Path.

AMOUNT PLEDGED The delegation pledged to provide this amount in its supply bill, the money to be disbursed in the usual manner through the office of County Supervisor J. B. Spearman. Persons affected are those who have been employed for the last several months on the third shift of each of the two large cotton mills. The mills acted last week to take off the third shift and as a result some 143 families of the Orr community were affected and 138 families in the Chiquola mills community.

Senator Pruitt stated that during the week-end and this morning he had received numerous reports that many or all of these families would be in need of assistance until they are able to find employment and when the matter was laid before the delegation it was considered necessary that immediate action be taken to prevent possible suiienng.

Families who are unemployed must make application to the superintendent of each of the mills who will issue requisitions for necessities.
