II For many years yon have been feeding the Checker board products, Purina and all those good things that make your horses, cows, hogs and chickens sleek, fat and healthy. Why should you change for something that is indefinite, of a doubtful nature to experiment with. Es pecially when the price is less in many instances. An old reliable, well balanced ration, at a nominal cost is hard to beat and we appreciate the large volume of trade that we are receiving from the people of Chatham county and surrounding territory. We receive almost daily car loads and you are never in doubt when you come here to trade—we usually have what you want and we save you money. , , . , We have been established many years and about every body knows this old reliable firm. This knowledge is next to the reliability of the feed stuffs that you buy and the combination is hard to beat. Then, too, we not only sell cracked feeds, oats, corn and hay, but we are well stocked with other things for the farm and the home. We are specialists in the Grocery line. Our grocery de partment is stocked at all times with the choicest that the market affords and you can get what you want when you want it and at the price you want to pay. We are always a shade under the market with flour and sugar, as well as other staple merchandise. We can supply your wants in both heavy and fancy groceries, canned goods and the feed. Remember we buy and sell all kinds of country produce, cross ties and pay the highest market price. If you are not now trading here give us a call and be convinced. TllßUlid&C^ |! Near Depot Pittsboro, N. C. | i|! Zj* ~ ■ - -I WHaaKgawfcjaßi■ iiuw.il— ’ MISS FORKNER IS MARRIED. | Many Cross Ties Handled in Bennett Local Notes of Interest. Bennett, Aug. 27.—We are glad in j deed to know that the old Chatham i Record is increasing in subscribers and we hope that the people will con i fhiue to help to keep this paper well supported. It is the same old reliable paper that our fathers took years ago, and we hope that it will continue i keep up its name as a good paper. It is worth while to note in the Rec ord last week the amount or cross ties that have been purchased and handled |in Chatham county. The old county j 1S evidently furnishing more ties to the railroads than it has ever before in its history. In fact Bennett has re ceived more ties and shipped them in the course of eight months than in j any one year before. We noticed a ! plug team with twelve ties the other day, and five years ago the same like team could not have pulled six ties. The larger load was pulled over good roads and much time saved in addi tion to the heavier load. The difference in the time and additional load will more than pay the extra *tax neces sary to pay for the road, and then the driver can come in with a smile and be pleasant. Then why do people i grumble at school and road taxes; I we all pay the same rate, and I never could understand why so many church members will grumble about the nec cessary amount that preachers require these days. Usually the grumbler does not pay much—you never hear a cheerful giver grumbling, or at least I never did. Preachers are not getting any more today for their work than they did in the old days. Many years ago one could buy meat for 6 cents a pound, eggs for eight cents per dozen and many other needful things just as reasonable, and it did not re quire so much salary to sustain a ’ preacher. I A happy, surprise marriage has | come to our ears, when we learned that our village daughter, Miss Ora Forkner was married to Mr. Carl i Brady. Mr. Brady is the son of Mr. E. A. Brady, near Bennett, and lately graduated at Elon College. His bride is the daughter of Mrs. Jettie Fork ner, proprietress of the hotel here. We wish them a happy and prosperous life. The Benentt Motor Company last week received seven new Fordson tractors and also a car load of Ford cars. They secured two new cars from Charlotte, they being driven through the country. All of these cars had been sold before they reached Bennett. Mr. Luther Garner believes that he ha> some corn that will yield seventy five bushels to the acre. He has one acre of prize corn that he says he is sure will yield at least one hundred bushels. Mr. and Mrs. Lacy Moffitt have moved into the home with Mrs. W. W. Brown and are annexing anoth er building to the home of Mrs. Brown. | A telegram was received here last week, announcing a sad death, occurr i ing by auto accident. We saw a man ; afterwards that reported that he saw j the wreck after the accident, and that i no doubt the occupants of one car . ■ were drinking. We notice each day in the daily papers of accidents and ; deaths that could be averted by driv '; ers of autos if more care was used, i The school board met Saturday and elected Mrs. R. L. Dorsett, principal; Miss Nora McManess and Miss Wan ’ da Brafford as assistants. These three will have charge of the school in Ben ’, nett this year. Mrs. Dorsett was prin j cipal of the school here three years ■ ago and proved very efficient. Miss k | McManess also helped in the school r ! here last year. Miss Brafford comes to Bennett from Bonlee and it will be t her first year here, i The Bonlee & Western Railway will put on their passenger coach this s week, to take care of the traffic, those ■ wishing to go to Bonlee by train and back, making connecting with the pas- F senger trains on the Southern, can do i so. The schedule as announced on this road leaves here at 11:30, re -3 turning at 3:45, daily except Sun • day. . • > The revival meeting began at Mt. 3 1 Zion Methodist church, three miles from Bennett Sunday. Rev. Fred Bra- dy is preaching in the morning and ! f the pastor, Rev. Brendail, m tne ax- i ternoon. j l Born to Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Phil-' lips, a fine baby girl. BEN—NET. CHARGED WITH BEATING WIFE. Rom Eubanks Creates Some Excite ment on Saturday. News was received here last Sat urday that a mart—it was not said whether white or black—had beat his wife to death and set fire to the house. \ It was also reported that a crowd were gathering to go after the man \ and lynch him. How such reports gained circula tion is not known, but it finally be came known that Rom Eubanks, |who lives near Siler City, had struck his wife Friday and also his mother-in law, and a warrant was sworn out for his arrest and he was placed un der a peace bond. < He was given a preliminary hearing on Saturday and bound over to Octo ber term of criminal court under a < S9OO bond, failing to give it, he was ordered to jail. While deputy sher iff Pickett was enroute to Pittsboro ■ with his prisoner, he leaped from the car and made his escape. He was again arrested by policeman Crutch field Saturday night and sheriff Blair and jailer Burns went over to Siler City Sunday and brought Eubanks to ; town and lodged him in jail. While the case is not as aggravated | as first reported, it is an ugly affair for Chatham county and was evident ly caused by evil influences that need to be corrected. — NEWS FROM SNOW CAMP. (Too late for our last issue.) Snow Camp, Aug. 20.—Dr. and Mrs. Leßoy Thompson, of Winston-Salem, i have been on a visit to his parents Mr. | and Mrs. C. H. Thompson, i Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Burgess, of Elon , College, have been visiting her par ents, Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Andrew. I Mr. and Mrs. William Thompson I and daughter, Mrs. Parish, of Bur- j lington, were recent visitors here. Mr. A. B. Stout has been on a visit to his sister, Mrs. James Henly i at Pilot Mountain. ! Miss Florence Dixon has returned home after an extended visit to her 1 sister at Guilford College. I Miss Lois Allen has been visiting Mr. and Mrs. Frank Teague. SERVICES AT BROWNS CHAPEL. G. W. Perry, a Native Chathamite | Distinguishes Himself. ’ I It was the pleasure of the editor to visit Browns Chapel Sunday to at tend the closing services of a pro- I tracted meeting that has been con , ducted by Rev. George W. Perry, of . Carthage, for the pastor, Rev. J, J. . Boone. ! We heard Mr. Perry preach two ! sermons, one in the morning and one ‘ ! in the afternoon. They .were able dis ’ courses and were well received by the | immense congregation. His subjects j | were well chosen; his theme followed . closely and his delivery made the ser- II mon impressive. i j In conversation with many of the j residents of that section, rra learned that Mr. Perry had made a splendid impression on the folks in general, j The meeting was a good one and ;; the church has been generally revived. ’ i Eight additions were had and many ’ i proclaimed a new allegiance to the ' i faith, thereby benefiting the commun ’ j ity as only a series of meeting can. Mr. Perry is a son of Mr. and Mrs. ’ Syllus V. Perry, of Pittsboro. and [ was reared in the Silk Hope section of Chatham, and he has many friends J in the county who are proud of him. BUY A FEW IN SILER CITY. 1 ? In conversation with Mr. C. L. s Brower last week in regard ot the 11 amount of cross ties that are being - handled in Pitsboro, he informed us ) that on an average there were about i 10,000 ties handled in Siler City each - month. Mr. Broiwer handles ties him ■ self but not so extensively as others in Chatham. Altogether there are as . many as 25,000 ties bought and shTp -3 ed from Chatham county.

The one wise move is to put it in the Bank, to the last j j dollar. In the Bank you know where it is. It is safe. It ! | does not burn up. Thieves do not get it. And you do not j spend it for the things you do not need. With money in the Bank you pay for what you buy with a check and you will not write a check for a lot of the little fiddle-faddle that you might buy but don't real ly want, or to pay your legitimate accounts. In that way when you want money you are more likely to have it. Money is hard to gather but easy to scatter. Money in the Bank does not melt away like money in the I hand.
