Mr Walter Johnson and bride have returned’ from a 10-day trip to Flor ida They are housekeeping at their ne\v home on West Salisbury street. Pittsboro was visited by several electircal storms Monday night. Much rain fell and the creeks were away out of their banks. Miss Maie Poe, of Raleigh, and Mrs. Paul Dezem, of Raeford, came Satur day to spend the week-end with Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Poe. Mr. John Dezern and wife, and Mr. Paul Dezem, of Raeford, spent Sunday here with relatives. Mrs. De zem will remain here a few days with her daughter, Mrs. Cecil H. Lindsay.

Henderson met his death Monday night, was brought to Pittsboro Tues day and placed in a garage. It was badly torn up, f Pittsboro people had to do without their Sunday Greensboro News. The bag containing the papers was thrown from the train at Moncure and the wheels of the cars cut the papers and other mail to pieces. It will be interesting to our local readers to konw that during the first eight days of March, this year, the noney order funds of the postoffice ere $812.00, while the same days last year they were only $387.50. .We are requested to ask why the difference in prices of cabbage. At one store in Pittsboro there is a charge of 1-2 cents a pound. At another store it is 7 cents, and at one store the price was 8 cents a pound. Again we a?k, why the difference, when they are all shipped from the same point. The merchants of Chapel Hill are going to have a fifteen-day sale in tne near future. Each merchant puts ap a certain article to specialize on. Wouldn’t it be a good idea if the mer chants of Pittsboro would get up something on that order? In the Harper land sale, which tf >ok place last week, J. A. Woody was one of the lucky men who bought pretty building lots. Besides the three in town he bought 13 at the Haughton place. Five of these lots w Ce avenue and eight on , ’ es t street extension. Mr. F. P. Nooe bought the Haughton home place. A great windstorm passed over some of the Southern States Sunday igOt doing considerable damage to property. Twenty people were killed and wounded in Tennessee and at Dne town in that State 50 dwellings were blown down. Here in Chatham S e , a heavy rainfall but very lit tle wind. s J? er k the Court J.

Mr. Floyd Hendley, of Iredell coun ty, is now linotype operator in our offices, setting the type for both the Herald and The Record.

Co., and is com ing to Pittsboro to make arrange ments for installing Case tractors and automobile supplies for Chatham county and other territory covered at present by Mr. Bynum. Rev. R. C. Gilmore, of Sanford, preached Sunday morning at the Pres-; bvterian church to a large audience and was listened to with much atten tion. His sermon was a very fine one. At the evening services at the same church Rev. C. L. Wicker, of Gulf, fill- : ed the pulpit and delivered an able 1 sermon. Mr. Wicker was at one time j pastor of the Presbyterian church in ' Pittsboro. The commissioners of Stanly coun- j ty, have done a good thing. They have j appropriated money to buy a ticket for every Confederate veteran in the ! county who wishes to attend the re- j union at New Orleans. Will the com- J missioners of Chatham do likewise? I A few of the old veterans of Chat ham may attend the Confederate re union at New Orjeans April 10. The rates over the railroads) will be one gent a mile each way. 1 We have a letter from Mr. Henry F. Durham in which he states that he is greatly improved of the painful tubercular hip, after wearing a plas ter cast for several months He will go to Burlington shortly where Dr. Walker will remove the cast and de-! termine the condition of the -diseased , joint as to whether it will be neces sary to place another cast or not. Be ing governed by the doctor’s advice he has been closely confined but through all the weakness and stubborn pain from the disease he has been patient and he asks that the believing Chris tians remember him in his prayers.
