with the latter’s parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Charlie Webster, Siler City,

Charley Thompson told us to be
• sure to say he had a cotton blossom

ton was the second man to report
blossoms, Mr. Buck Campbell being

Carthage, long clerk of the court of
Moore county, will fill Mr. Barclay’s
pulpit at the Pittsboro Presbyterian
church next Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. 1
Barclay are at Montreat.
A subscription at this season when
the paper is not making publication
expenses in the advertising depart
ment counts for more than at any
other time. Can’t you spare us a
dollar or two? (
Only the appearance upon the
scence of Dick Ramsey saved the
home of Rev. W. W. Long Sunday.
Fire had started in the kitchen in .
the absence of the family at church, •
Dick broke into the kitchen and ■ex- j
tinguished the fire, though the kitch
en was considerably damaged.
Mr. C. H. Poe of Durham gives
us the following data on the Poe'
reunion at Gum Springs last week:
508 Poes and relatives present; 297
of those bore the name Poe ; 41 vis
itors, or mere friends of the Poes.
The two oldest present were Mrs.
Emily Poe Dowdy, aged 83, and Mr, j
W. E. Poe of Cher aw, S. C., aged 75, j
. . i
»\ Mr. Wilson Burns, who was eriti- !
'cally injured in an automobile wreck j
two weeks ago , has had a narrow j
escape from death. His situation was (
exceedingly grave, but the last few
days previous to this writing his con- j
dition has been more favorable. His ,
friends have been very much con
cerned in reports from Mr. Wilson,
who is in a Sanford hospitaL
The Fourth seemed very much like ;
a Sunday in Pittsboro. Many of the
folk were at the Poe reunion, the i
Siler City, Sanford, or Chapel Hill
celebrations, while others disappear
ed from the streets. The editor had
the pleasure of riding up with Mr.
and Mrs. J. L>. Griffin to hear J. W.
Bailey*? address at Chapel Hill. Mrs.
James Cordon also enjoyed the Grif
fin hospitality and the eloquent ad
dress of Mr. Bailey.
Mrs. J. W. Hunt returned Sunday
from a very pleasant visit to Mr.
and Mrs. William Hunt, who live in
Charlotte. Mrs. William Hunt had
recently undergone an operation for
appendicitis, but had convalesced
beautifullv. Mrs. Hunt found her
son and his bride of a few months
cosily domiciled in a lovely apart
ment. On the Fourth the mother, son
and wife visited the parents of Mrs.
William Hunt near York, S. C.
The little Case thresher recently
purchased by the Mitchell’s Chapel
group of colored farmers is making j
a record for efficiency. On the!
Fourth, starting at 7:40 in the morn- j
mg on Mr. Will Bland’s oats and
wheat just out of Pittsboro on high- j
way 93, it had completed the job I
within five hours, though several
Stops had to be made for lack of j
grain. It was threshing faster than
several wagons could bring the grain. |
The thirteen, acres of oats yielded t
jp- 437 bushels. There was about 100 j
k ' bushels of wheat.
Insects are raised in incubators at
the FLY-TOX factory. When they
\ are fully grown and especially strong
\ and lively they are turned loose in a
' test cabinet, “The Fly-Tox Chamber
of Death.” than a teaspoonful of !
FLY-TOX is sprayed inside. Within
five minutes all are dead. But, the
test isn’t finished yet. The dead in
sects are carefully taken from the
“Chamber of Death” and put gently ;
into incubators. They remain there ’
24 hours in an effort to revive them.'
If even a wing flutters, the FLY-TOX
does not come up to the high
standard of quality, and never leaves
the factory. This is the quick acting
msect spray you want. It is FLY
TOX. Accept no substitutes. There
ls nothing just as good. There is only
one FLY-TOX. Developed at Mellon

WORTH THINKING ABOUT
There are many ways to be thrift besides merely
saving the pennies, although we’ll admit they are worth
saving. Here are a few of them:
Save the moments —they are worth something to you if
used properly. Be careful of your health —it may save
you money for doctor’s bills. Store wisdom away in your
mind—where it will be valuable to you. In fact, keep
sound mentally and physically. We can safeguard your
funds—the rest is up to you.
