It was a good season.

—The hunting season for part

—The weather is fine again af
ter the gentle rain the firßt of the
week. It was getting a little
dry, but the fine weather and sea
eon will give farm work another
hooat. .
—Mr. T. P. Bradshaw had three
fingers on hit* left hand broken
the first of this week. He was
lowering a window -which fell on
his hand. The hurt was very pain
ful.
—Sergt. Tom. Vaughn spent Fri
\ day and Saturday here at the home
J nt his father, Mr. Jno. D. Vaughn.
He is stationed at Ft. Thomas, Ky.
He had been acting as escort for a
squad of soldiers moved from Ft.
Thomas to another fort, and- having
a day or .two to spare, dropped off
to see the home folks.
—Conservation, or the saving, of
food has been talked a great deal.
I Rome gave little heed to'the admoni
tion, while others went forthwith to
saving or putting forth extra efforts
to raise more to eat. The Governor
stated, while it was yet time to plant
and reap the crop this year, that this
would be the "hungriest winter ever
experienced in this country." Those,
many of them, who thought he talk
ed "wild," will no doubt realize be
fore the reaping of another crop that
he knew what he was'talking about.
You are lucky if you can find and
Sit sugar now before the winter has
irly set in. Your bread costs no
more than it did several months ago,
but when it comes to meat the price
is about double what it has ever been
before.

Scott ft Brnae. 17-M
Anniversary.
The relatives and neighbors of
this Stan gathered at his residence
Nov. 11, 1017, to celebrate the
90th birthday of this distinguish
ed citizen of Alamance. A large
number came together, bridging
refreshments in abundance and
many other tokens of friendship
and love. The day was bright
and snnnyand everybody, Includ
ing the Captain, was happy.
After exchanging many glad
[greetings the writer spoke briefly
concerning the blessedness and
sweetness of life; life in this world
and the hope of life eternal in the
world to oome.
There are two periods, and only
two, when people are proud of
their ages; one is when they are
little children and the other when
they are very old. When you aak
a child for its age the boy or girl
will say, I am going on 8 or 12, I
will soon be 8 or 12 years old. The
little fellow wants to be a man, or
awoman. Ask the old. person's
age and the answer is givon by
telling that he or she has survived
all or nearly all of the early com
panions and relatives and is going
on 80 or 90 yean. Both of these
classes, the very young and the
very old, are proud of their ages.
It is not so with all others. When
their ages are asked they all give
the date behind and never say I
am going on a date ahead. We
afe all alike here; men fts bad as
women on this point. Not that
they seek to misrepresent the
truth but are begging time; they
have not accomplished life's plans
and expectations.
There is nothing grander than
the old man or woman, well pre
served mentally and physically,
walking erect with cheerful
countenance. Truly such consti
tute God's aristocracy. On the
other hand nothing is more pit
iable or deplorable than to look
into the faces of the young and
see there the marks of sin, de
crepitude, degeneracy and prema
ture age.
Following remarks along this
line of thought we repeated in
concert the 23rd Psalm, and were
then led iu prayer by Rev. D. A.
Long. Rev. Mr. Burgess, the
pastor of Capt. Stockard, then
spoke, telling about the life and
services of his parishoner, the
Capt. He waafolio wed by Captain
Stockard who expressed bis grate
ful appreciation of the kindness
and love shown him, and in his
concluding sentences told us of
his great peace in view of his ap
proaching end, and exhorted us
all to meet him in heaven. All
then partook of a most inviting
and sumptuous dinner, the Cap
tain having invoked a divine
blessing.
It was truly a happy day.

Grand Rally Patriotic Order Sons of
America.
A grand rally ot all the members
of the Patriotic Order Sons of
America of Alamance county will
be held in Oraham Saturday night,
November IT, at 7.50 o'clock. The
session will be held in the hail of
the Local Camp. The object is the
formation of a County Associa
tion and such other business as
may be considered advisable for an
aggressive drive to build up the
order In the county,
i, Already four camps have been
organized—at Graham, Burlington.
Mebane and Swepsonvllle. This
order has made rapid growth in
this State, tho' rather new here. It
however, is an old order, having
been in existence for 70 years. It
is founded wholly on the great
events of history in this nation,
and appeals strongly to all liberty
loving as well as patriotic citizens.
Several short talks will be made.
Seive the Ashe*.
This is a homely proverb, but at
this time it has a real meaning. It
moat hare originated among the
users of coal as a fueL when coal waa
becoming scarce. All users of coal
know that considerable small par
ticles of coal ran through the grates
and are carried out with the ashes
To seive the ashes meant the saving
of this waste. People, especially
those living in town, where coal has
become almost the sole fuel for heat
ing purposes, find themselves in the
dilemma of being able to get no coal
at all or getting it in very small
quantities. Therefore, it behooves
each one to be just as economical as
possible in ita use.
Many persons in Graham have had
to resort to the u«e of wood and some
of those who haul wood are talking
of almost prohibitive prices

AN OLD MAN'S STOMACH.
As we grow older and less active
less and less food is required to
meet the dearids of our bodies. If
too much is habitually takes the
stomach will rebel. When u man
reaches the advanced ago of 8» or
90, you will find that he is a light,
eater. Be as careful as you will,
however, you will occasionally eat
more than you should and will feel
the nred of Chamberlain's Tablets
to correct the disorder. These
tablets do not contain pepsin, out
strengthen the stomach and ena
ble It to perform its functions nat
urally. They also cause a gen
tle movement of the bowels.
