MISS WALDEN HURT IN WRECK.
Brickhaven, Dec. 1.7. —Excitement
ias been running high in these paits
or the past few days. Last Wednes
,ay evening while in Moncure practic
g iu r the minstrel to be given Sat
.rday evening, a party of young peo
ple, including Alma Walden, of hay
vood, Bernice Womble, of Moncure,
.nd Louisa Harrington, of this place,
vere returning to the school building,
ifter taking one of the teachers to
ier boarding place when the driver
if the car lost control ar.d ran into
i tree. The car was damaged very lit
.le but Alma Walden came very near
>eing seriously injured, having been
ut and bruised about the face. Sever
al stitches were taken in a cut across
;he forehead, and it will be several
lays yet before the young lady will
be able to resume her school work.
While the othrs were badly fright
ened, they suffered only minor injur
ies. Again on last Friday morning,
Mr. Avery Marks crashed into a
at the crossing on the Norfolk
Southern. The men on the motor car
leaped to safety and no one was hurt,
but Mr. Mark’s car was partly demol
ished. This is an unsafe crossing. A
deep cut makes it impossible to see
the tracks. Avery’s friends are re
joicing that the accident was no more
serious.
Mr. and Mrs. O. C. Kennedy and
Miss Ruth Kennedy were week end
guests of relatives in Durham.
The Christmas tree for the children
of the Brickhaven Sunday school, will
be at the school Friday evening, Dec.
21. Misses Bland and Harris have
charge of the program and every
one is looking forward to an interest
ing evening. While the tree is given
under the auspices of the Sunday
school, the plan is to make it a com
munity Christmas tree. Anyone who
wish may put presents. on the tree,
but all presents except those provided
by the Sunday school must be marked
“special.”
Before another issue of The Record
comes, the year 1923 will have pass
ed, and with its passing goes anoth
er Christmas time —th&t season of
the year when people of every nation
and every clime—the custom is uni
versal—celebrate the passing of the
old and rejoice with the coming of the
new. Especially do the Christians ob
serve this as the birthday of Christ,
that matchless leader and teacher of
practical religion—the man of Galilee,
who demonstrated so nobly the only
life worth while, the life of service
and sacrifice. It seems at Christmas
time that it is well to remember that
the same message of love and peace,
that came with the first Christmas so
long ago, is renewed and if possible,
made more emphatic with each pass
ing year. If the weary, sin-laden
world could only grasp the real spirit
of the Christmas season! The sDirit
of helpfulness—of cheer, a~d o f
“peace on earth, good will toward
men.” May each of us on De-emhe 1 *
25, renew our faith in out*
and be glad and happy that we too,
may serve, and thus walk in the foot
steps of the matchless Christ—the Sa
viour of men.

Mr. and Mrs. R. S. Parker spent
last Sunday and Monday with rela

i In the recent stock selling cam
i paign put on by the Carolina Power
and Light Co., team No. 4, won first
■ place. Teaqi No. 4 was composed of
the employees at Buckhorn and at
Sanford. This means that Chatham
, and Lee county won over all the com
, munities in the two Carolinas, where
, the C. P. & L. Co., operates. There
i were 11 teams competing and No. 4
■ took first place by a narrow margin
i of five shares. The Buckhorn bunch 6
in all, each sold 5 or more shares and
■ a total of 161 shares or $15,100.00
l worth of stock. A total of 47 sales
. were made. The people of Chatham
i county deserve most of the credit for
this achievement, for it is their hard
. ; earned dollars invested in a good, safe
way thjat has put the thing over, and
. we boys here_at Buckhorn, as individ
. uals, are sure proud of the way the
, people of the community responded.
• The Lee county bunch sold $7,500.00
worth of stock, which makes a total
• of $32,600.00 for team No. 4—the win
