n | tn rn myM > I THE ROAD TO- PEftC-E^a BENNETT LOC ALS AND NEWS. Bennett, June 11.—Rev. Brandoll,' Methodist minister at Coleridge preached at the Christian church Sun day night. Also Rev. J. C. Kidd held his regular preaching services at the baptist church Sunday afternoon. Mr. E. S. Phillips and Mrs. Phil lips and Mr. and Mrs. P. C. Brady attended services at the Baptist church | at Bonlee Sunday evening, hearing an excellent sermon by Rev. J. H. j Broom, pastor. The police baseball team, of Greens-! boro, went to High Falls Saturday and defeated that team by a score of 13 to 1. No doubt but what the boys dreaded the policemen. We learn that High Falls and Coleridge are to meet on the diamond here next Saturday, j Dr. and Mrs. H. A. Denson and Mr. j Bartlette left for Indianapolis last j Friday where they will visit for a month. Dr. Thomas, of Siler City, is to be here Friday, 15-22-29 to do the vaccination for diphtheria and typhoid fever in Dr. Denson’s place. Quite a few people came last Saturday for vaccination by the schedule dates which came out in the last Record, not knowing the different arrange ments made. People in this section have begun to harvest oats and wheat and the crops seem to be good as ever and if not prevented by bad weather all will: about finish, up this week. Mr. W. H. Fowler, who has been running a case here for some time, is j closing out his goods and expects to; leave Bennett. In drviing over the county roads be-' tween here and Bonlee either way we find these roads in bad shape and need j repairing, more so than ever, and it j is an unwise step to use the people’s ' money to build roads and then let them go to pieces. It’s enough to dis hearten any one who works hard to make a little money and then pay tax for road they are letting run down so j they will soon become impassible. If our road men have too much to do, I suggest that we pay more tax and put on more men and keep the roads up and not let them go to pieces, then have to build them over again, costing the county as much or more to re build them. People in this end of the county built the first gravel road by a donation which we paid about $2,000 for this road that was a help to good roads in Chatham county, and these roads are washing now and need to ■ be kept up. BEN-NET. j BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION. Pittsboro, Rt. 3, June 11.—On Sun day, June 10th, a crowd of 75 people young and old, gathered on the hill across Rocky river at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Tom Green to celebrate their birthdays. At 1 o’clock a table 30 feet long was loaded with all kinds of good things to eat. The crowd did a liberal share of eating but there was enough left to feed many more. Then came an ice cream course, wa termelon slicing, and ice cream was served again. It can’t be expressed how everyone enjoyed the day and especially the grand treat. The writer just thought if the edi tor of The Chatham Record could be there and have so many good things to eat no doubt the paper would be! postponed this week. In late afternoon the crowd left' wishing them many more birthdays and telling them they came through love and kindness.

Motorists who are planning vaca tion tours during the summer months will be pleased to know that the 1923 Associated Tours Guide, the official road book compiled and published by The Automobile Club of America, is now ready for distribution. By following the carefully selected itineraries and clearly defined road , maps with which the Guide’s 104 | pages are filled summer vacationists ! are enabled to tour by motor through the most charming sections of the eastern United States and Canada to seaside, mountain and country resorts. All tours in the Guide are compiled with a view to scenic charm; the road mapped are the best stretches of hard highway that the country affords. For transcontinental motor tourists there is a double page Atlantic and Pacific road map showing the several routes across the United States, ac companied by complete itineraries for this increasingly popular trip. For those visiting the New England coun try there is a map of the recently adopted road marking system. A large folding road map of the entire coun try east of Chicago accompanies the Guide. A feature of the Associated Tours Guide that motorists particularly ap preciate is that the itineraries are ar- I ranged to allow for logical stopping ' places at the ned of each day’s run at towns where accomodations may be ; readily secured. Synopses of State I Motor laws, ferry schedules, and lists ! of good hotels and garages also go to increase the Guide’s usefulness to the automobilist. For the accomodation of car owners i the Guide will be distributed through local news dealers, bookstores and drug stores in all parts of the country or may be obtained by remitting fifty cents to cover cost and postage to The Automobile Club of America, 247 West 54th street, New’’ York City.

This is the most common sig nification of the word, and as we be gin our computation of time from the incarnation of Christ, the word gen erally is applied to some term of one hundred years subsequent to that event, as the first century A. D. Sinister Earrings. Men, as well as women, wore ear rings quite long ago in Europe, and there was more than ornament in their intention. The earrings were really little cases or pockets which held poison. Life was cheap; if you got tired of it you simply unscrewed your earrings and drank the poison. Love of Argument. "Why is betting an almost exclu sively masculine habit?” an exchange tnquires, and a cynical correspondent answers: "Men choose betting as a means of stopping an argument; wom en never want an argument stopped.” —Boston Transcript.
