THE HOME OF FASHIONS
Consolidated
Tobacco Co., Meets
The ninth annual muting of the
stockholders of the Farmers
Tobacco Company was held
today in the Star warehouse. Owing
lo the busy time with the farmers, the
attendance at the meeting was not
large.
The statements me officers for
me past year showed satisfactory
progress of the business of the com-
with its standing the best of
any time in its history. In the
ears the company has been doing
business the stockholders have been
paid cash dividends amounting to
Hit 1-2 per cent, or an average of
about IT per cent per year. The board
of directors decided not to pay a
cash dividend this year, as some very
extensive improvements are to be
made to the property in enlarging
the warehouses, and it was best to
do this out of the net earnings of
the past year, rather than pay out
earnings in dividends and make
the improvements on a credit to be
paid out of the earnings of the next
year's business. The stockholders
present expressed their approval of
this course.
It certainly shows a fine business
that can pay cash dividends of
1-2 per cent nine years, hence to
puss dividend for one year and
use the earnings to make such
as will put the company
in position to do even s larger bus-
was the wise thing to do. The
officers of the company have conduct-
ed its Affairs admirably and along
strict business principles and it
holds a high place in the estimation
of the stockholders and the people
and the financial institutions with
it does business.

NEW YORK. April Spring and the other of silk and both sleeves
fashion returns from Paris as all in
and from them It may be inferred that
the change toward greater
predicted earlier In the season, has
tn-iii fairly launched and Is making
steady progress. Steadily, though
this change has been com-
until now no one is surprised to
hear that flounces are back in favor,
skirts are a trifle wider, belts have
returned and panniers are among the
prospects of the Immediate future.
These are the first note
that Paris has struck the Dolly Var-
den type of costumes which some ob-
servers predict will soon be among
us. Of course the now panniers are
little more than draperies that cling
closely to the figure, but they show,
without any manner of doubt, a ten-
to add a little more to
the hip than is apparent at the foot
of the skirt.
One French designer has brought
out a decided pannier model which
has a voluminous skirt drapery start,
at variance with the narrow lit-
petticoat beneath. This frock is
built of blue and white spotted
lard in combination with lace.
The narrow petticoat of lace
how as far as the knee. Above it
is the pannier drapery of blue and
white foulard, which is gathered
are short enough to show to the elbow
the long gloves of faint tau silk em-
delicately in blue.
This vogue of effects Is
another Interesting style feature of
the season. Extremely graceful
in drapery are achieved by cross-
one fabric over the other In this
one-sided fashion, and usually the
used underneath is lace of some
sort, all over laces being tremendous-
fashionable just now.
The lace skirt flounces has assured-
come into its own once more, but
is Is. like the subdued and
clinging, made of soft, cobwebby laces
and giving no crinoline effect upon
the skirt upon which It is used.
and triple flounce skirts of lace
are shown by some of the greatest de-
signers. Enormous quantities of th
fine are being used for tunics,
skirt flounces, bodice etc.,
and almost all of the elaborate even-
frocks call for such trimming.
The type of frock which a
draped princess front effect,
with a petticoat showing
about the foot and the diagonal
cleverly into a train
into the back, is well represented

REV. C. M. ROCK RAPS
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Those that were present at last
night's services at the Baptist church
are to be congratulated for never be-
fore In the history or Rev. C. M.
Rock's pastorate In town did he
make as sincere a heart to heart talk
to the congregation as he did last
night.
In words that came from the
of his heart the deep he
has tor the people of Greenville and
their well living as Christian
the pastor denounced and con-
the example the older people
of the community are furnishing the
growing generation. He said there
can't help seeing the elder people do
It. Card parties, where prizes are
put up to excite rivalry and interest,
were also flayed by the pastor.
Rev, Rock declared that he had long
debated with himself before speaking
as he did. but ho fully realized that If
he were to withhold from
that which he did, he would not
have served his people as God com-
him to and as the people
would have him serve them.
The Baptist pastor Is to be com-
mended fur his outspokenness. No-
body us deceitful to himself
as to doubt Rev. Rock's sincerity.
Many people present last night re-

a blaze glory surround-
ed by such educational environment
that one might be
persuaded to believe that in the in-
scrutable wisdom of providence, it
must have been so appointed, that
he might on this occasion become a
sacrifice on the altar of the cause
that was dear to his heart, that the
cause itself might the more signally
be carved and ingrained into the very
hearts, souls and marrow of our
Southern people, so that those of us
who are left on the shore of time,
and those who are to come after us
shall accept this sacrifice as an In-

in loving remembrance of our friend
Charlie Aycock; a real inspiration to
carry on his great work in triumph
until the last words that fell from
our orator's lips shall be an
truth not only in North Caro-
but be the shining mark of dis-
of all our land.
You have doubtless observed, that
in referring to the deceased friend,
have avoided the word death. The
death and Charles Aycock
are incongruous to me, they do not
chime or or ling together. A
man possessing the heart, tempera-
spirit the desire
to help and serve the poor weak and
helpless with all his varied
talents, gigantic powers
and genius can never die. He will
always be living to his dear ones and
to the people of North Carolina, he
loved so well, and for which
he made so many sacrifices.
In regard to his future I feel that
there is no one within the sound of
my voice who believes in the
mental essentials of the Christian re-
that is not assured that he has
been already assigned to a command-

They are either swamps or subject to
frequent overflows form adjacent
rivers. They are not valueless, but in

It is the object of the Drainage Con-
to reclaim such lands and
through the use of methods known
to engineering science and throughly
proved to convert them into inhabit-
able and productive farms. When
this is done, lands that today are
worthless will be among the most de-

asset.
