C., and a tour west. They will visit Mr. Nash's mother and relatives and friends. They are making the trip in a new Ford, with a kitenen cabi net, ice box, table and everything to make camp life perfect and still have room for one more. How is that lor a little old “John Henry?” Mrs. Emma Berry, oi Houston, Tex., spent the week-end with her cousin, Mrs. Fred Cross. Mrs. A. E. Rollins, of Duncan, spent last week iwith her parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Cross. Miss Violet McDaniel is visiting her aunt, Mrs. T. V. Sexton.

Mclver spent a few days last week in Georgia on business. Mr. Ray Cross spent Sunday in Cor inth with friends and relatives. Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Parker, of Albemarle, came last week to make their home at Buckhorn. We are over oj ed to have such splendid . e v neigh bors and extend to them a hearty welcome in our community. Mrs. T. V. Sexton ana son, Vance Lea, have returned to their home at Buckhorn after spending a few days in Siler City with her sister, Mrs. J. W. McDaniel. Mr. W. H. Lawrence and brother, of Durham, spent Sunday with Mrs. Fred Cross. No more red roadster in Corinth, as it is being painted a blue-black. Don’t Try Farming Without a Farm Program. The crop reporting service of the North Carolina State Department of Agriculture, which takes an agricul tural census of the State every year, says in this year’s report that the cen sus taking has shown that “North Carolina farmers do not definitely plan out their farm work much ahead of their actual planting. _ _ _ The far mers frequently did not know their own intentions, even in the midst of their planting season.” Is it any wonder most farmers fail to get rich, or even to make fair pro fits, when they conduct their business on such a basis as this? It is likely that any business so run would show much profits, We think not; and )we are afraid the tendency to run along without any definite plan of farming and to let each day in large measure i determine for itself what the main I interest of the farm shall be, is by ! no means confined to North Carolina farmers. FOR THE BEST. The happiest man is he who holds ' no grudges, and has no old scores to even up; who not only forgives Luc forgets an injury. As to slanderous words heard of another —what interest have we in repeating or even remem bering then} ? The sooner they are forgotten the better for all of us. —Ex- change. BILL SAM’S DICTIONARY . ■ -L By J. L. MARTIN The debate at Cross Roads school j house Friday night forever settled ! the question whether Lem Gardener’* J old work horse has real sense or just a high grade of instinct. Bill Dooley, who spoke on the side of the affirma tive, proved by actual facts, and con vinced all three of the judges that Lem’s old horse has more horse sense than Le*n has instinct. INSTINCT; A peculiar natural sense found in all animals and in some men, which enables them to get by without having to go to the time and trouble of learning anything.

I go—men pity my distress; | i et 1, with neither house or land, Am rich in all that I demand. 1 shelter me beneath a vine, Over a wall that is not mire; L v, ' al ?. h ripples in a pond, And c.imb the tree-framed hill beyond noi gh all I share, no coin is spent I have no labor to repent, There are no loves to hamper me, And to my will the world is free. For ages men have toiled that I May have the things that satisfy; Poppies, and towers, and fields cf grass To make me pictures as I pass. I make no lefws, so none I keep, And still in safety I may sleep, I ask no dole, so none I give, And yet ’mid gracious things I live. In this full-brimming cup of bliss, Is but one taste of bitterness; For what I have no one will share, And when I die no one will care. Law About Sheep-Killing Dogs. Southern Planter. N. J., Claiborne Co., Tenn.—What protection have sheep-killing dogs, or dogs that suck eggs and break into springhouses, What about mad dogs ? Answer by C. L. Boyd: A dog that kills sheep has no legal protection whatever. Any person who finds a dog chasing or worrying sheep has the right,—it indeed is his duty--to kill the dog. The same is true of dogs that pro wl around your premises destroying your property, breaking into your spring house or other buildings. Any dog having symptoms of rabies or hydrophobia should be promptly ; killed before any injury can be done to persons or property by it. No liability attaches to anyone who kills dogs under the circumstances above detailed. But one should be sure that the dog about to be killed comes within one of the three classes men tioned. Take paint out of clothing with equal parts of ammonia and turpen tine. HOW’S THIS? HALL’S CATARRH MEDICINE will ' do what we claim for it—rid your system of Catarrh or Deafness caused by Catarrh.
