Eubanks, Friday, March 8, at 3:30 p. m. » Mr. R. R. Seagroves was in town Monday for the first time in several months, we believe, he having been vick the most of the winter. Mr. and Mrs. Dave Thomas of Dur ham spent Sunday here with the latters mother, Mrs. Lanius. Miss Catherine Hardesty of Ra leigh spent the week-end with Pitts boro friends. Mrs. Kernodle is desperately ill at the home of her daughter, Mrs. J. A. Dailey. Miss Cappie Burroughs of Dabney and Mr. Robert Taylor of Townville visited Miss Emily Taylor Sunday.

R. Law rence wish to thank their friends and neighbors through The Record for all the many acts of kindness during the I fatal illness of their mother. l/ouOnlyHaue | Guard tiiem DR. J. C.

C. || Mrs. C. C. Poe has been ill. Hon. Walter D. Siler spent Sun day at home. • Mr. L. M. Petty has bought and moved to the Geo. W. Perry place at Silk Hope. The Masons expect to have their annual banquet at the Pittsboro school building March 15. The commissioners and board of education were in session Monday with a full attendance present. Mrs. W. H. Ward and daughter, Mrs. Frank Gilmore, who have been ill for several weeks, were reported improving a few days ago. In the case of Jenks vs. Jenks, a suit in which the husband was suing for divorce, a real fight was made Monday and the husband lost. There was a double-headed basket ball game here Saturday night. The Pittsboro boys beat the Moncure boys and the Goldston girls beat the Moncure girls. His friends here were gratified to see Judge Sinclair ride up to serve as judge this week. He had ex changed courts with Judge Midyette who was the assigned judge in this district this term. Miss Louise Petty, of Pittsboro, but now a student at the Eastern Carolina Teachers’ College, with her colleague on the debating team, re cently won a debate against the team I of the Emerson Society of her school. Rev. O. I. Hinson writes us that Rev. J. J. Boone is assisting him in a meeting at Jonesboro, and that he would be glad to see some of his former members at Pittsboro down to the meeting. j Court for the trial of civil cases |is in session this week. Judge Midy ette is presiding. There will be no court next w r eek, but the week after there will be another week’s term, that also for the disposal of civil cases. We call particular attention to the advertisement of the valuable Burl ington properties. No sale in recent years should attract more attention than thatjone. And many Chatham folk are interested in those properties bringing a good price. They hold bonds of the bankrupt company. Mr. Jeter Griffin was feeling good Monday evening on receipt of check for SIBO for the burial expenses of the wife of Rev. A. T. Sherror, col ored, who now lives near Charlotte. The wife died while teaching near Corinth, and Mr. Griffin had the body embalmed, furnished a nice coffin and went to considerable other ex pense, all on the mere assurance of the husband that he would settle the bill.. But this prompt settlement is what one who knows the colored preacher would expect. Some folk thought Mr. Griffin was doing a risky piece of business. THE CHATHAM RECORD,- PITTSBORO, N. C. Misses Bronna Johnson and Juanita Webster spent the week-end in Wake ’ Forest with the latter’s sister, Miss Julia CampbeT. 1 Mr. L. E. Thomas of Wilmington, ! accompanied by Mr. R. G. Mclntyre of the same city, ran up a few days , ago to pay his taxes «and visit his sister. His friends are always glad to see Mr. Thomas. Court was at a rather much of a standstill Tuesday, as illness' and highwater prevented important wit nesses from reaching Pittsboro. Mr. Joe D. Mclver’s illness prevented the trial of a case in which hej was a witness. A goodly part of the San ford bar was here, including Solicitor Williams, but to no purpose. Rev. R. R. Gordon is the luckiest preacher we know. As an example of his good fortune, fifteen cars drove up to his home here Saturday and deposited quantities of eatables. The editor of The Record has heard' him say that he is being given something nearly every week of the year. Mr. Gordon is a fine gardener, also Raises 8 more chickens than his family can eat, and has eggs galore, it is hard to see why he should have a grocery bill at all, and as his parishioners carry him to his country appoint ments, he has no automobile. He is fortunate in the regard in which he is held by the members of his sev eral flocks, but he deserves his good fortune. $ Gilliam Brown Wants Fresh Peaches Badly (Moore County News) Points as far north as New York and south to Jacksonville, Fla., were wired last week in an effort to obtain fresh peaches for Gilliam Brown, Buick dealer for Moore, Lee and Chatham counties, who is being treat ed in Carthage for high blood pressure, and attendant ailments, at the home of Dr. C. T. Grier, his brother-in-law and physician. Un able to eat but very few things, Mr. Brown expressed a desire for fresh peaches, of which he is inordinately fond. Friends and relatives, ready to satisfy his every desire, immedi ately set about trying to secure some of the coveted and scarce fruit. Their efforts, however, proved of no avail. Both Jacksonville and New York commission men reported no peaches available, but one of the latter wired that he was expecting a consignment of the I luscious fruit from Africa or the Mediterranean on Tuesday or Wednesday. He was asked to rush a crate here at the earliest moment possible. Mr. Brown, one of the most pop ular men in this section, has been very ill for a number of months. He has been receiving treatment at several of the leading hospitals in the state, but finding that his condition progressed better under the care of Dr. Grier, requested that he be brought here in order that he could receive his constant attention. *************** : want ads : ************* ** GOOD FLOUR AT A low price at R.

You will get your money back in a few short years. More than that—it keeps right on earning dividends for you. Case Threshers last for twenty years or more. No, you don’t have to be an expert. You can, with little experience, do a good job of threshing and save grain with a simple Case machine. There are only few belts, and few working parts to watch and adjust. But that isn’t all. You can thresh all grains and seeds that are thresh ahle. No condition or crop is too difjfieuit. You can do it with the minimum of power because the Case thresher is unusually light running. ’Wouldn’t you like to learn more about the profit-making possibilities of Case threshers? Come in the next time you are in town. J. I. CASE T. 11. CO., Inc. PAGE FIVE
