Strong- Man Strong Made It It was a tough, hard stunt,
but Jim Strong, (above) 38-year-old freight handler for the
New York Central, pushed 800 pounds of sand from Paines
ville to Cleveland, Ohio, for a distance of 29.2 miles. He did
it on a bet. In this picture at Cleveland he is shown with
the sand container and the 100-pound truck he used. (AP

Salem Looking Ahead to
Next Census Due in 1950
Salem really has something to look forward to come the 1930
census.
Maybe the old town won't quite have doubled its population
in the last 10 years, but it will be very close to it.
Just now it s about 52.000.
For people keep coming here
to live. The Chamber of Com
merce is listing the newcomers
at an average of 18 Vi a week.
But that isn't all. Nearly every
one the chamber lists has a wife,
or wife and children, and rep
resents by scientific computa
tion 3.8 persons. That makes an
actual average of 66.6 persons
a week.
Last week was short. Only 14
family heads were listed by the
Chamber. But here are tne new
comers for the last four weeks,
showing where they come from,
what they are doing here, and
their Salem addresses:
