We extend the use of our columns for the purpose of a call to perfect an organization. ?If you dou't take the Faxuiuw Times wo want you to take it. Be one of the 2000 satisfied subscribers in the county, ?There are quite a .number of changes of advertisements in this issue that will be of great interest to you to read! Look them up. ?Every farmer in Franklin county ehoald read, the advertisement on the fearth page of the Job Department of this office, about printed stationery. Read it and let us hear from vou at once. ?The W, E .White Furniture Company is moving its stock of - furniture, coffin, caskets etc., to their new quarters on Main street. Since the remodeling of their new building it presents quite a neat and attractive appearance. ?The fourteenth of February is a day sacred to St. Valentine! It was a very odd notion, alluded te by Shakespeare that on this day birds begin to couple; hence, perhaps arose the custom of sending on this day letters containing professions of love and affection. ?We are requested to state that n regular meeting of the Woodmen ffcf the World will be held in its ^TTorest on Tuesday night, February 14th, 1911, at 7:30 o'clock promptly.

They are to be found in every style and every variety. Beautiful valentine souvenir spoons are seen and they are out ef the ordinary run of SDoons, in that the end of the handle is in the form of a cupid and oupids ohase each other aroand - the twisted wire of whieh the handle is formed Wii huve leuoived?several lets of items this week that found their way to the waste basket 011 account ef not having the name of the writer enclosed. We are very anxious for a good correspondent in eaoh part of the county, but we are necessarily compelled to insist on this rule be ing carried out. If any news bappens in your section write ob but don't forget to write your name on a piece of paper and put in the letter. ?In sending valentine mementos, the deu| girls prefer to diBguise their handwming, because a* valentine gift is r loye gift, and no mistake about it. And bo, with papa's stub pen m hand and one of Jack's big _ plain envelopes, they direct the little Yf token which carries with it the pretty little message which no man, who is a man at all, would miaconatrue or take advantage of. ?Do not, then, despite, the little bit of sentiment whieh prompts people-to remember each ether on Valentire's day, because of all the festivals of the yeat it is the one whieh plays most sweetly upon the heartstrings of all. In the poatofllce one sees many e maiden and asany a matron, many a young man and many a banker stopping tor a moment in front of the parcel window * ' \ < ...L. y - 1 . cx * .-; to drop in a package, all top , precio?8 to be entruited to the careless hands of messenger and office boys. Alex Burnette Dead. The remains of Mr. Alex Bar nette, who died in Florida one day last week, was bought here for in-, termed on Saturday. A Lorlmer Lobby Senator Cummins' strong hint to the United States Senate that a Lorimer "lobby" was dogging the footetepa of senators to secure a verdiot in favor of the "blonde boss" re-1 gardleas of evidence is seen by his signifioant remarks in th? Senate when he said: "I not enly agree in the lofty sentiment that excludes from eur consideration the opinion of the people and the comments of the press, but I broaden it, so that it will include all the influences whioh have been aroused in this uafoitanate controversy, for there are other voices than those of the general public and from the newspapers which are quite as insistent, and sometimes infinitely more powerful, and whioh at times are heard about the Capitol." BUI Nye Memorial. We are publishing below a letter from Supt 3. Y. Joyner to the Ceunty Superintendent!, Protestors and school tsaoharg urging tbsm to take a part ib this wark. It is a moat nobla and glorious work and everybody should be more than glad to take a part. Tba letter follows: T? TUB COPBTT SvrBBIlfT1BDIVTS AMD TUB 1'WBLIC SCHOOL TEACIIjs?s: February 1,1911. The public press of North Carolina has always responded generously and UDselfisbly to erery oall of the public schools for seryice, and no agency has been more potent in promoting the development of these schools aad the progress of education in the State. The ooun?y superintendents and the public school teachers now have an opportunity to express their appreciation of this service, and to render at the same time a valuable service to a most worthy cause by co- operating heartily with the "Bill Nye Memorial Committee" in their commendable effort to rait* toads for'the ereetion of a central or main building at the "Sionewall Jackson Manual Training School," to be known at the "Bill Nye Memorial Building." The oommiltee has prepared an interesting program for the celebration of Bill Nye Day in the public schools. An hour devoted to hon oring the memory ot such a man, who laved all children and all men, who devoted big eplendid talents to making them happier and better through his writings, will be properly and profitably spent. I earnestly request and urge the oounty superintendent of each county to distribute these programs to the public school teachers of the oounty. accompanied by a letter to each teacher, directing the netting apart of an hour in the sohool for thie celebration, and urging the hearty oo-operaiion of the teacher for the succeaa of tbe celebration. Tbe noble work of tbe Stonewall Jackson Training Sohool and giving wayward boys of the State a chance to have a cbanoe to be traioed mtn good citizena should appeal strongly to the hearts of the children of the public schools, who but for the meroy of God might be like these wayward boys. It is a privilege, therefore, (or these children to heve an opportunity to make a centribution to such a work. Tt will do them good. I earnestly urge, tbarefore, that oouaty superintendents and teachers lend their hearty co-operation in scouring at least a penny contribution from every ohild in tbe public sohools lor the erection of the Bill Nye Memorial Building for increasing the faoilitiee at the State'e school for training wayward boys. I designate Wednesday, tbe 32nd day of February, for tbia celebration. I suggest that the teacher devote an hour en thie day to reading te the pupila this booklet and to aroneing an enthusiastic interest in Bill Nye end hie work and in the work of the Stonewall Jaokson Training * ' " ' ' < -' * - . w".' " 'mii ? ? School, concluding (he exerciser < with an earnest appeal , (or a contribution of at least one penny troin every child, to be brought next morning. All contributions should be forwarded by the teacher or the principal oI the school to Mr. R. W. Vincent, secretary of the Bill Nye Memorial Committee, Charlotte, N. C., and they will be acknowledged in the oolumns of the Charlotte Observer. Very truly yours, J. Y. Jstsu, Snpt. Public Instruction. Old Lady's Sage Advice.
