C., last week on account of sickness in his fam ily, three of his children being down with the flu. Wg. are requested to announce that a pie supper will be held at Moses school house on Saturday night, Feb ruary 3rd, and that everybody will be welcomed. •, ' i Charles A. Brotfm, one of the main supports in the office of the Record, tumbled to old flu on Monday nght, and is still nursing the ailment at his home on Fayetteville Avenue. He is improving. Cotton is higher in Pittsboro than it has been in the past two years. It sold in Raleigh this week at 28 find a half cents, and at Sanford at 28 cents. The market here is 27 and a half. v Many cases of flu have been re ported all over Chatham, but very few fatalities, those occurring being mostly among colored people. The disease has about spent itself and all the sick are convalescing. R. C. Dismukes, at Saxapahaw tells us in a letter that he cannot do with out The paper .He sends remittance along to pay his subscription up to June 1924 and also enough for the Progressive Farmer and the Southern Agriculturists. T. S. Richardson, of Mattapan, Mass., sends in his renewal and says he does not want to miss a single con ■ of the paper. He states also that he is sending a book under separate cover to be delivered to Mr. Durham. We shall be glad to deliver it upon arrival. A negro man, living a short dis tance from Pittsboro, whose nam# we were unable to learn, came very near cutting off his left thumb Monday, whle trimming a wedge with a very sharp axe. The axe glanced, striking the hand at the base of the thumb, making a very painful wound. Owing to the fact that Dr. Chapin was in bed sick, the man drove on to Mon cure before he could get medical at tention. Under date of Jan. 20th, Master Willie Morgan, who left employment in The Record office, to become a Page in the Legislature, writes us: “My private secretary has gone to her uncle’s funeral and I will attempt to thank you for the papers you have sent me since I have been in the Leg islature, myself, I sure do enjoy them, and I hope everything is alright in Pittsboro. Thanking you again for the papers,, I must close as I have some important matters to attend to.” Ernest E. Williams, the registrar, can be found at the store of Brooks & Eubanks, a*nd he* will gladly place your name on the registration books. .You cannot vote for the school bonds if you are not registered. You want to be sure to register and then you want to be sure and vote for the school. We must have a new building and now is the opportune time to get it.
