—Ardmore Orchestra, a Red path
Lyceum attraction, will be at the
Opera House tomorrow' (Friday)
night. It should appeal to all music
lovers, and will be enjoyed by all
Who hear it.
—Some one with a disposition to
figure has given out that a pair of
flies,swatted now will forestall the
productionof 324,000,000,000 of the
breed dnring the coming fly season.
That's lots of flies—the truth and
correctness of whi;h we neither con
firm nor deny. But, if the swatting
of a pair now will reduce the breed
to be contended with by a hundred
millionth part, there will be many
less to bother and vex during the
coming season. However it may be,
get your swatter and go after them
in and out of season.
At the Presbyterian Church. v i
Rev. E. N. CaldWell will preach
Sunday at both services. At 11
o'clock: "Pilgrims," and at 7 p. m..
"Scars." All are cordially invited
to worship with us.

AFTER TWELVE YEARS
This Testimony Remains Unshaken.
Time is the oest test of trut'i.
Here is a Burlington storyt hat
has stood the test of time. It is a
story "with a point which will
come straight home to many of us,
C. B. Ellis, music dealer, David
St., Burlington, JT» C., says: '"I
have no hesitation in saying taht
Doan's Kidney Pills are a good,
xelibale kidney medicine. I suf
fered from a light attack of kid
ney complaint and I got a sip
ply of Doan's Kidney Pills from the
Freeman Drug Co. After I took
them the pain left me and I give
them all the credit for relieving
me.''
Mr. Ellis gave the above state
ment in December, 1907, and on July
10,1918 t he added: Doan's Kidney
Pills have given me a permanent
cure, and I can certainly praise
them as being a wonderful kidney
ihedlcine. '
Price 60c, at all dealers. Dont
simply ask for a kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pillls—the same
that Mr. Ellis had. Poste—Mil

The home of Mr. John T. Ker

day night, also his cribs containing
the year's crop of corn a few yards
to the rear of the residence. The fire
originated in tho rear part of the
residence where there waa some fire
dnfing the mornuig. It was about
11 o'clock when some member
went on the back porch and dis
covered the fire. A line of hose
waa laid from the Ossipee mills, but
not soon enough to keep the home
from being a total loss, but it helped
to save other near-by buildings.
Only a part of the furnishings in the
frontof thehonse was saved. The
home was built by Mr. E.'s father
before the civil war and at that time
was fine of the best country ho-n esTn

This will be a Gruliain affair ami
every citizen will be a»ke«i t> tak« a
part, both young Bud old. An
nouncement of definite' plaits uiK
be made later. The general idea is
to have a large, bum uriruut
of the Confederate uionmiieut A
big Christmas tree will be piaoed in
the middle of the stage. Thin tiee
will be decorated with all colors ol
lights. A choir composed of the
best voices of the town jvill be on the
stage aud will sing Christmas carols.
It is the plan tocarrv out "THE
WHITE OHRIBTMAS" idea-giy
ing instead of receiving. Churches,!
Secret Orders, Societies, individuals,
everybody, will be to bring
some article of foodstuff; non
perishable iood, such as canned
goods, potatoes, flour, meal,' etc.
This foodstuff will be turned over to
the local Red Croes and will be dis
tributed during the winter from
time to titqe to families of our town '
who become in need.
The. outlook for the winter does
not seem so bright, apd this is a
chance to look out for oar unfortunate
ones who may become in need, and,
toa at the same time it will be-"A
GET-TOGETHER" for all the peo
pie of our town. Every citizen
should take a part in this affair, for
it will be yours, Graham's, and not
for any special one or claaa. Be
gin talking OUR COMMUNITY
CHRISTMAS TREE at once, get in
behind the movement, and if you
should be placed on a committee to
help, then throw your whole heart
into the work and let's make it a
howling success for OUR TOWN.
