?Like a May morning?this.
? A large number of cases of in
fluenza is reported in the county.
?Mr. A. K. Hardee attended the
funeral of his brother's wife at Ben
son Monday.
?Sunday and Monday mornings
were very frosty?and about the
coldest so far this winter.
?Superior Court for the trial of
civil cases convened Monday with
Judge Walter E. Moore of Jackson
Countv presiding.
?Miss Nellie Lineberrv, graJuatf
of Charlotte Beauty School, will be
at Misses Amick's millinery store

work at special prices.
?It is noted that Mr. 0. L. Sapp

Long and Ma). L. P. McLendon of
Durham are among the attorneys
attending court here this week.
?Mrs. Geo. A. Mebane and son,
Allen, of Greensboro and Mrs. Victor
Graves of New York City were here
Saturday attending a business meet- .
ing of the L. Banks Holt Mfg. Co.
?The County Council at a recent
meeting received the resignation of
' Mrs. Chas .B. Coble as chairman of
county curb markets and elected
Mrs. Robert Culberson her successor ,
with Mrs. \V. F. Somers as assistant.
?John W. Story, ,51. was a victim
of suicide in Burlington about 9 o'
e'ock Tuesday night. In the base
ment of his bome he fired a bullet
into his head. Ill health is assign-!
ed as reason for the rash act. Eight

?The Superior Court started off
Monday morning with 23 divorce
cases in the hopper. Six of them
were tried and divorces granted and

?Alamance matrimonial market
? slumped the past .week. Only one
marriage license issued?for Fred
Garner,Snow Camp, nnd Florence
Tyner, Liberty, colored Jolks. But
St. Valentine's day?legendary mat- |
ing time?is only ten days off. Then
the poetic prophecy "In the spring
time the thoughts of young men
lightly turns to thoughts of love,"or
words to that -affect. So a revival
in matrimonial matters Is in a way
foreshadowed. . ? I
?Citizens, financially and other-1
wise interested, are, it seems, leav- !
ing no stone unturned to effect a
reopening of the First National Bank
and United Bank in Burlington. It
is recognized that the loss and cost
of liquidation will exceed by far the
cost of putting them into operation
again. The spirit of cooperation
that is being manifested will turn
the trick. The National is well a- I
long toward the goal. The UDited
is following, spurred on by the the'
parent bank in Greensboro which j
was first to weaken, but now mov
ing hopefully toward reopening. ;
?That George Attmore Long, son
of Mr. and Mrs. J. Dolph Long, was
advised last week that he Sad pass
ed a successful examination before
the State Supreme Court for license
to practice law was good news to
his parents and friends here, Geo
rge's 21st birthday day will be in
March and he will not receive his
license until that date. He grad
uated at Chapel Hill two years ago
and since then has been taking the
law course. He will complete his j
law course in June and receive his
law degree. During his four years j
at the "University and his High I
School days he was an out-stand-1
ing student with honors. We con
gratulate him and extend all good
wishes. l
Another Alamance boy, Clarence
C. Cates, Jr? of Burlington, though
blind was also licensed. He grad
uated at Chapel Hill in the same j
class with the former and since has
taken the law course. Handicapped
by blindness, his achievement Is not
able and he will deserve every suc
cess that comes to him.

Winter Over According to Ground
Hog Legend.
There was not a ray of sunshinr*
in these parts on Februar. 2n 1 ?
ground-hog day.
The tradition is. as almost every
body knows, that the little animal
burrows into the earth upon the ap
proach of winter to remain till
spring opens.
That Feruary 2nd is the day ap
pointed to come forth and investi
gate the weather situation. If he so -s
his shadow, he decides that winter
is not over and returns to his win
ter-quarters to remain six weeks be
fore coming forth again. At the en 1
of that period, when he appears a
gain, if he sees his shadow, he re
turns to remain two weeks longe.
fcefore coming out for good
| Brt on the contrary, if he does not
I see his shadow on his first appear
ing the decision is that winter i?
over and he remains out.
Wait and f watch to prove th"
| verity of the tradition.
| A group of Carteret County grow -
ers received $707.45 net for a car of
76 hogs sold on the Richmond mar
ket last week.
Three hundred Johnston County
tobacco growers had the county
farm agent to clean their -planting
, seed last week.
Membership in the North Caro
lina Cotton Growers Cooperative
Association increased nearly 2,000 in
the last year and now totals 13,500,
General Manager V. Benton Ulalock
announces.
The newly organized OrangeCoun
ty mutual exchange has ordered 1,
000 bushels of soybeans for its far
mer members. The seed will b-*
used in hay production.
Cotton handled cooperatively in
1927-28 was 825,78c bales, which was
increased last season to 2,lr2,001?
an increase in actual bales of 1(7
per cent.
