He is a subscrib- I er to several papers and magazines, but it is impossible for him to get to read The Chatham Record until all of them at his home has finished with it. He is always the last one to get it, and he walks the floor and gets nervous, he wants to read it so bad and yet he must wait. All the family i like it and he wanted to know what to do.

LOOK AT THE LABEL ON PAPER. DOING A VERY SENSIBLE THING Mr. K. H. Hackney, of Frosty, was a caller at The Record office last week and he told us about his method of catching hawks that are so numerous in his community. During the past twelve months Mr. Hackney has caught between 35 and 40 owls and hawks and he has caught six owls and six hawks since Christ mas. He also tells us of a colored man, Joe Baldwin, who lives near his place, that has caught 9 owls and hawks since Christmas. There are thousands of chickens and all sorts of game that are de stroyed every year by hawks and owls and if everyone would do what Mr. Hackney is doing, it would benefit a great deal. He is to be congratulat ed on his efforts. m i CONVENIENT FOR CHATHAM. Sanford has been made a branch of fice of the auto license bureau for four counties —Lee, Chatham, Harnett and 'Moore.

The Pitshoro circuit of the Method- Episcopal Church. South, Rev. J. J. Boone, pastor, has accepted $2,198 as five years for the cause of Superan nuate Endowment of that denomina tion. The goal for the entire church of this movement is $10,000,000.00, the income from which is to be used for the support of the aged and infirm ministers and widows and orphans of the ministers. The campaign for the fund is being directed by the Board of Finance of the Southern Methodist Church, St. Louis Mo., Bishop W. F. McMurry, chairman, and Dr. Luther E. Todd, secretary. The latter has issued and sent to all pastors a booklet, “The Call of the Forgotten Man”, which tells the pathetic story of the great need, asks the church to remember him with substantial giving and out lines plans for raising the sum sought. According to reports received by the board over 2,000 pastoral charges have up to this time accepted mini mum quotas asked of them and many of them have voluntarily increased the amounts. Several large individual gifts have already been .announced and others are expected. There are over 900 of the old preachers, many of them pioneer cir cuit riders who rode through storm and sunshine, winter and summer, day and night, to serve humanity and the church, 1,300 widows and 600 orphans, many of whom are living in a little better than poverty. They never forgot duty and the church a single minute, and there is now evidence on all sides that the church is at last thoroughly awake to its belated duty to its forgotten servants. > » WILLIAMS DARK MARRIAGE Other News Items About Folks At Siler City.

While walking down a crowded street, the other day, I heard a little urchin to another turn and say: “Say, Ch’immie, let me tell youse, I’d b$ happy as a clam, If I was only the fellow that me mud der thinks I am. “She t’inks I am a wonder an’ she knows her little lad Could never mix ’ith nottin’ dat was ugly, mean or bad. Oh, lots o’ times I sit an t’nk how nice ’twould be, gee whiz! If a fellow was de fellow that his mother t’inks he is.” My friends, be yours a life of toil or undiluted joy. You still can learn a lesson from this small unlettered boy: Don’t try to be an earth saint with your eyes fixed on a star, Just try to be the fellow that your mother thinks vou are..
