George Scales can fur nish evidence, if it is necessary to prose cute. Apropos of George, evidence, etc., the status of a witness in a recent trial that he attended excited the curiosity of the within, who asked him what charge was against the witness in question. He an swered “They wuz ’cusing that nigger for fragrancy.” I wonder if guilt was established. There is about a thousand miles be tween the writer and Badin right now, so someone else will have to write these notes next month. As his personal feel ings are most kindly to everyone there, he will make no suggestion. But if he does not get that nickel that Bill Stokes owes him from the last “Dope” match ing before he left, he will certainly write to the Kditor to pass the buck to Bill; and his con.science won’t trouble him, either. In the tug-of-war on the Fourth, Aug- tin was so extended that he was mi.s- taken for the roj>e by a short-sighted spectator, who said, “Ix)ok at it stretch. It will break again in a minute.” In the same event, Rinehart became tangled in the rope. He was considerably drag gled at the end, and reported several casualties in the suspender button sector. Dugan Shankle pitched the last Office- Construction game. His general sym metry, his graceful winding up and high ball was much admired. In answer to a worried questioner, would say that his feet are really attached at the angle he holds them, and the parabolic contour of his underpinning was caused by attempt ing to walk too young. A tourist recently inquired the home address of D. Hoffman. Told Jessup she was uncertain as to the name, but thought he was the Mayor of Badin. Judging from the crowded condition at the Main, after supper, he must be hold ing Court. ^In Acknowledgment of Error C-O-L-E-S in the last i.ssue should have been C-O-W-L-E-S. Understand he was “peeved”; but while deeply grieved that I should have made the error, the subject matter still stands. Floyd Culp was so proud of his new annual pass to the Plant that he offered it for admission to an Albemarle Movie. The ticket taker took it up, and Floyd had a period of mental stress until he could talk the ticket taker out of it. W. I. Stokes took a four days’ vaca tion over the Fourth in Raleigh. He made the trip without a puncture or a mishap, and now claims that comments on his car or his skill in driving it are not in order. Work has started on a trestle up the lake. Clapp and his men are getting to be expert voyagers. ’Tis said Ritchie had a bad case of mal-de-mer on the first crossing; but this is vigorously denied. Paving in the Old French Storage building is under way—every time a square foot is uncovered someone sticks a little paving down. Jessup said that the five fresh men in the Electrical Department’s team must have l>een some men. —T. J. G. Mrs. T. A. Early, who has been visit ing in the West since the close of school, has returned to Badin. .Mr. A. L. Scott attended meeting of Shriners, in Hendersonville, on the Fourth of July.
