Some were kept at home by the thresher, and others seem to have got tired of going to the same piace.

Don’t fail into the habit of knocking everything that comes up. Try to think how a thing can be done, rather than why it A? impossible. Cul tivate the success habit, not the fail ure complex. Boosters are doers. They are happy. They enjoy life, and make the world a better place to live. Every town that amounts to anything owes it to the boosters. They .never sit around with long faces and moan. “What was good enough fer grandpap is -good enough fer me.” Watch your self. Don’t become a poor, miserable knocker. i WANT ADS ; *************** "WANTED: Tenants for one and two-horse crops. A. B. Clegg, Mon cure, RFD 1. FOUR SHOW CASES for sale. C. C. Hall, Pittsboro.
