Opening of New Garage
The Yadkin Motor Company’s new garage and sales room opened for business recently. Located in a building designed especially for their needs, at the intersection of three main highways, they are prepared to give the best in motor service. The Trouble Department, with its corps of expert repairmen, is on duty day and night to meet the demands of the motorist.

The Sales Department, in addition to an up-to-date line of accessories and supplies, will sell such well-known cars as Chalmers, Willys-Knight, Overland 4, Maxwell, and Maxwell Trucks, these cars having been received and now on display.

News and Fruit Stand Coming
It is announced that Badin is to have a news and fruit stand, which will open in the room formerly occupied by Saleeby. Mr. Herman Jenkins will be manager, and he states that he will give the public a clean and attractive place. He is making arrangements to have on hand all the popular magazines and papers that are in demand in Badin. A soda fountain will be installed in the near future, which, in addition to the fruits, cigars, and candies, will make this a very attractive place.

Furniture Company to Occupy Handsome Building
One of the largest and most commodious buildings in Badin is that to be occupied by The Parker-Little Furniture Company. Badin’s furniture houses are among its most progressive stores, carrying a line that would do credit to a city.
