TO THE PATRONS OF RURAL
ROUTE NO. 1, BUNS, N.C? j
EAST SIDE OF Tilt RIVER
I have been informed by a member;
of the Board cf County Commissioners
that they would meet Saturday, Nov.
7th, 1925, at Anderson's bridge to have '
torn away one half of wing of Ander- '
bon's bridge on Tar river west side,1
this wing being about 400 ft. long and
extends out to the edge of hill on west1
side and then building a short abutt-'
ment. 1 he freshet of 1924 covered'
at out 20 ft. of this wing last four days.1
On the East side of Tar river I serve
rinety-three boxes and one hundred
and twenty-nine families. Now it this
wing is taken away then during high
water these patrons on East side may
expect to do without mail delivery'
from one to four days.
My suggestion is this, instead of
taking away the wing at Anderson's
bridge, build a wing three hundred feet
long on the East side of Ferrall's
bridge as I have already driven over
one thousand miles doubling back in
the past 21 years to deliver mall dur
ing freshets in the river.
Should some one ask how I served
I revioua to the building of this wing
on Anderson's bridge? At that lime
11 drove a horse and when I could not
ford at Anderson's I left my route and
drove four miles up the river to Mul
flens bridge, sometimes being able to
jford there.
I Since I drive a Ford car now that
! cannot be done.

AUXILIARY AM) THE BOYS
The following is a letter received
from Miss Minnie Gwaltney, Rehabili
tation Chairman of the American Leg
ion Auxiliary.
At the Convention, the Executive
Committee approved of the plan of
asking the Ministers of. the vaHnem
churches, on the Sunday nearest Ar
mistice Day, to speak of our Sick Sol
diers and remind the people again of
their brave deeds and great sacrifice,
and offer a prayer for faith and
strength to fight thefr 'hardest battle,
but best of all, to let the boys know
they are not forgotten. Then give the
people a chance to give something for
the boys and their comfort. We are
not asking alms, but allowing the peo
ple a very great privilege.
First interest the minister by telling
him of your boys and of something you
have done for them. Do you remem
ber that during the War and for sev
eral years after this was done without
asking, so why not now? First care
fully explain to each minister what is
done with the money and why you are
asking it. - Just think of how much
good we can do if each Unit will fall
in with this plan. The day falls on
November the eighth this year.

The TIMES is indebted to Mrs. J.

sent us Tuesday. Mrs. Weaver says
these peaches were seedlings from
trees grown from seed planted three
years ago. The ease with which fruit
is grown makes it impossible to see
why more fruit isn't grown and con
sumed. Even town lots hsve space
enough to give to half a dozen or I
trees.
