Every town should .have a municipal
cotton yard.
Armistice Day was observed In Wash
ing t on ( ity Tuesday.
It would not only be an advantage
to the traffic, but a greater advantage
to the farmer to have a cotton yard in
Louisburg.
Tin latest reports show that it is
probable that the price or cotton seed
will be reduced. The price of meal
ought to be reduced also.
o
Wake County is the first county to
appoint a woman Deputy Sheriff. She
will have charge of the collection of
taxes and do other office work.
The coal miners decided to cancel
the strike order which stops the Fed
eral injunction, making it possible for
work to resume ami a settlement made
by negotiations.
The attention of the City fathers of
Louisburg is directed to the pressing
need of a public cotton yard in order
to relieve the congestion of traffic on
the Main thoroughfare of the tovcjk.
Its a dead certainty that the cotton
wagons or the automobiles will have
to be moved from Main Street. There
will be less friction in moving the cot
.ton wagons as most of the farmers own
automobiles.

cution is too good for them.
Senator Thomas S. Martin died at
his hon>e in Charlottsville. Va.. on
Wednesday, after an illness or sever?.!
weeks. He was"the Den/bcratlc lead
er in the Senate and ha<f been a men:
br of that body for 24 years.
It would be a great advantage to the
farmer to have a municipal cotton .yard
as he could come to town drive to the
yard, unload his cotton, put up his
team and transact of. r business, if
for any reason he had to wait on the
buyers to get the market. And the
public would be relieved of the wag
ons standing on the streets for hours.
o ;
If a suitable place cannot be found
on the railroad for a municipal cotton
yard then arrangements can possibly
be made to get the use of the vacant
lot next to the King^Seed Co.'s gin. the
lot behind the Jail or the hill between
Main Street and Whitaker & Allen's

will be necessary for the teachers to

3. How rftanjr schools have organ

been sent to the schools several Weeks

Industry and saving. I hope that each

are signed by Carter Glass, Secre

these certificates will be given to
every room or grade in which ev

Society. The other certificate,
known as the "Certificate of A
chievemenf will be sent directly
from the office to every pupil as
soon as his teacher reports to us
that he has invested in one or more
War Savings Stamps since July
1st. 1919. The teacher may note
on the certificate from time to time,
the purchase of additional War
Savings Stamps.'*
If the teachers will furnish me a li>'.
of all pupils who are entitled to the
Achievement Certificates I will be glad
to send the list to Mr. Timmons and
he will forward the certificates imme

4. President Coats says: "Too ma
ny people look upon rural schools as a
little house on a little ground where a
little teacher at a little salary for a
little while teaches little children lit

"I shnii t shed another tear," she de
clared firmly. "It's done, and all my
crying w* change thing* any." -The
word? had scarcely passed her Hps be
fore the floodgates opened anew, and,
ha\:ng no ?*x;ra handkerchief on hand,
she was cMlged to resort to a corner
of her apn?n.
"I don't wonder you cry," sympa
thized her neighbor. Mr*. Kent, rock
Inc violently hack and forth In the
porch chair. "After you've worked
your fingers off for that boy, so he .
could go to college and have things
real fine?to have hiiu turn around
and ^et married without saying a
word-; lt*> -loo mu?, h."
"They'll be here tomorrow," sobbed
Mrs. Drew. I haven't the bosrt to
bake a thing?and they've to eat,
I suppose," she added tragically.
"Let the bride try her hand." sneered
Mrs. Kent. "He's got to get used to
her cooking sooner or later, anyway."
Mrs. T>rew stiffened. "Let a stranger
come Into my kitchen and mess around
with my p?ts and kertles?" She shook
her head energetically. "Besides, he
said she worked In an office. Probably
all she knows about cooking is how to
typewrite recipes!"
"Clarence!" Mrs. Kent laughed
scornfully. "What do you expect of a
fellow who Is so much In love that he
forgets to tell his ma when he gets
married? Voir* wait and see; 6he'll
want to boss everything, .and Clarence
will stand up for her. That's what
he'll do. You just wait,"
At this dire prophecy, Mrs. Drew's
face disappeared completely In the
folds of her checked calico. "I don't
know how I'm ever going to stand It,"
she wailed.
"There's the expressman." cried Mrs.
Kent, with an eager start.
Her hostess lowered her apron.
"Clarence wrote she wns sending some
of her things."
"Oh. reallyT* Mrs. Kent was all In
terest.
"lie told me to'unpack the box." As
she spoke, she walked hurriedly to the
steps to receive the package. Mechan
ically she signed for it. The mere ac
ceptance of it appeared a disloyalty
tc all the post years that, had belonged
exclusively to Clarence and her.
Mrs. Kent ~'!in i cited it. "Shall I open
it?" she ask** I "juerly.
"Well?yes?r.?>?I'll do it myself."
Mrs. Prow sat down and commenced
work'rs at the knot.
"Cut it. 4?ut it," snapped her caller.
Impatiently.
"Hut th.? mother was thinking that
probably Clarence's hands had tied
! that knot, and her; fingers lingered
over it lovingly. Slowly she Unfas
tened the string, removed the heavy
wrapping paper, untied more knots
and at length loosened the cover.
Mrs. Drew glanced at the greedily
peering eyes, and for a moment her
hands hesitated. Then her longing for
sympathy overcame her scruples. She
-let the cover slide to the flour.
"Well!" ejaculated Mrs. Kent.
The eyes of both women were fixed
on the neatly folded garments. Mrs.
Kent's hand ilew out swiftly a* if to
disturb them and explore further; but
a sudden change in her hottest attl

"I think I'll go in." remarked Mrs.

ence of r.ilnd; th?n added sourly. "I
hope ymi enjoy their visit.
? But Mrs. Drew had passed into the
house, ignoring her. Upstairs in the ,
little white bedroom where Clarence'
hr.d sl.-pt m?til he went to colleg?. she I
unpacked the box and laid its con- |
tent?, one piece after another, on the
snowy counterpane.
4,.Tu?t like what I used to have." she
whispered. "No silk nonser.se?Just
cotton like .mine."
She shook out a white dress, smooth- j
Ing Its folds. "I declare?she must
have made It hepp'-lf. The lining looks
that way. I'll have to show her how
it ought to be done. Why. bless my
heart, here's a real calico i.-pron?and !
another?great big ones." She gave i
a lirtle choking laugh.
t'i.-ee after piece was lifted from *he

ment. "Well, well, if she husn'r packed 1
In sot lie of CIaren re's socks. And
they're darned. Now that's fine. Not I

please."
Mr*:? ftfew's face had grovn bright
er and brighter. At length, her task, j
completed, she stood back to vtew the
result. The whole room, that haven) of
dear memories, had taken on a differ
ent aspect. The new personality i
seemed already to have left an im- |
press. A strangely sweet charm ra
diated from the neatly spread cloth-1
intr on the white bed. Her eyes
caressed their fresh daintiness. Then
she recalled Mrs. Kent's greedy curl
osity.
"I guess it's pone of her business
what Clarence's wife chooses to Wear,'
muttered Mrs. Drew with sudden In
dignatlon.
She returned to the bed and passed
her hands gmtly over rhe folds of the
white dress. All the'rancor; all the
deep hurt In her heart melted rfWay.
""Clari TH?? said she had no mother,"
she whirls-red; then, after a long
pause. *1 always wanted a daughter."
