'Mrs. W. R. Bracey of R ; cl mond,
y. t i< vis tin a: Mrs. R. H. Kayes
for" several days.
Mrs. R. M. Connell spent the
vrv k end in Raleigh with Mr. and
Mr>. Graham Connell.
Miss Camilla Powell of Raleigh
-nent the week-end with home
I 01i\-
Several of the University boys
and other college students have
been at home for the wek-end.
Miss Elizabth Blair of Louisburg
College has been home during the
spring holidays. i
Miss Lucy Farrell, aged fifty
eight, died at the old Farrell home
-tead near Hanks Chapel Sunday
evening. She had been long an in
valid and her going is possibly a
relief to her. The funeral and
burial was at Hanks Chapel Mon
day afternoon.
It is gratifying to learn that
Mr. J. L. Griffin was able to sit
op last week. He is at Watts Hos
pital He is very much missed in
Pittsboro. j
We regret to note that; the
child of Mr. and Mrs. Rencher
Campbell which got something on,
its lungs two months ago is still j
in a Durham hospital with very ‘
little encouragement for complete
recovery. It was very ill last week,
but improved somewhat. Mrs. Camp
bell remains in Durham during the (
illness.
Messrs. Joe Mclver and Paul
Farrell visited Simmons headquar
ters in Greensboro last week and
come back reporting the Senator’s 1
campaign encouraging. Mr. Joe.
thinks maybe Chatham will go for
Simmons. This indicates that the
gentleman can make a joke, wheth
er he can take one or not.
Miss Elizabeth Bums, profes
sional nurse; has returned ' to "New
York, accompanied by her brother,
John Lee Burns, who will work
with a taxicab company, though we
are not informed whether it is with
the “Fresh Air Taxicab Company
; of' ~
The death of ’Sheriff Harvard,
of Durham county, removed from
the scene of a long activity a dis
tinguished son of Chatham county.
We presume that h.e was reared in
. New Hope township, as that seems
the home of the Harwards. Sev
eral brothers survive the sheriff but
none of them lives in thei»w native r
county.
It would seem that Silk Hope
has a coming baseball piteher.
Young. -Buckner over there struck
out 21 mep; ip • a game between
-the Siier City and Silk Hope teams
last week. Silk Hope won 7 to 4.
Os Mrs. Norman Hilliard of Dur
ham who died at Scotts Hospital,
Sanford, and was buried at Gaines
Grove church, near Goldston, the
last day of March; a" Sanford dis
patch had the following good words
to say: “Mrs. Hilliard, who was 22
years of age, was, before her mar
riage, Miss Gertie Gaines. She was
formerly connected with the city
clerk’s office in Sanford, and was
universally loved by a large circle
of friends. She was a daughter of
Mrs. Gaines and the late Robert
Gaines of Chatham County. Sur
viving are her mother and a num
ber of brothers and sisters.”
Says last week’s Sanford Express:
“Rev. and Mrs. George Underwood
came down from Pittsboro and
spent Saturday with the family of
their son, Mr. Earl Underwood. On
Sunday morning they went to Shal
low Well and had a most pleasant,
experience in attendance 1 upon the
annual reunion of the Thomas clan.
Mr. Underwood had the’ pleasure
of shaking hands with many people
of that community •“ Who attended
Shallow Well when he served as
pastor of that - church. They were
glad to see him looking so well and
to learn that his health is better
than it has been in four or five j
years.” I
The Progressive Stores, Inc., of
this place plan to open stores at j
Troy, Liberty and Goldston at. an j
early date. This will make 12 stores
onened and put in operation by j
this company in the short period
of a year or two. The company
has been doing a good business
since it decided to branch out and
put stores in a number of places, j
—Sanford Express. .
Lizzie Waddell, colored, died 1
Tuesday. She had been sick for
two years. She was 42 years old. .
Mrs. James Cordon attended the
funeral of her cousin, Mr. C. W. ■
Worth, in Wilmington. Mr. Worth
was a first cousin of Mrs. Cordon’s
mother, Mrs. H. A. London 1 , and a
grandson of Governor Jonathan
Worth. i

Mrs. Ruth .McCormick, daughter
°f Mark Hanna, has walloped Sen
ator Beneen for the Republican
noniination for the senate in Illi
uois. She is already a member
°f the House of Representatives.
Her deceasd husband was beaten
for the senate six yars ago by the
man she has now beaten. If that
is not poetic justice, it is at least
Poetic.

Kitchen Policemen
MAYBE you think Pin going to re
fer to ,he cop who comes around
to the back door to n uke love to the
cook and the apple pi<*. But that isn t
the only kit <1 of man you may stum
ble on in the kitchen.
Nor do I mean those poor dough
boys who were set tt the sink and
made to clean the kitchen when they
misbehaved in the army. Ihe officers
put them on kit-'hcu police duty, hut
theyVouldti t n aU<* them love the Dy
ing pan or d’shniop.
My idea o| the m n who does real
duty in the ! "< !j n N that of the
fellow who “hare of house
keeping. tts I f as cooking is con*,
cerned. The <* am has of men who
’have come t<>‘^ili<*‘ : mnii/.Htion that
kitchen work is V" picnic for a wom
an, and’ thc F ctiligh’cned men have
begun to sham the responsibilities of
the gas range and dishpan.
With the old-style marriage, which
is rapidly growing extinct, there was
a “division of labor.” whereby the
1 ntan worked from sun to sun. or from
j whistle to whistle, while woman's
I WO rk was never done, because she
running on scheduled time,
i With the new marriage, the man
r finds it both possible and agreeable
j to do a certain amount of work in
! the shadow of the gas range. His
wife may be doing her part in meet
ing household expenses with the L’il
pay envelope, so it's only fair for him
j to match her work with his. If she S
in an office, he can be in a kitchen,
j This arrangement changes the mean
ing of the rolling pin. Time was when
this kitchen implement was only a
j S i g n of the wives’ disapproval. Now
It means that men, too, have some
1 Interest in the place where their food
Is prepared.
Do you think that kitchen duty
makes a man effeminate? I don’t. It
doesn’t change a man when he does
| woman's work any more than, -it
changes a woman w lien she does
man’s work. It’s just a case of turn
about is fair play.
I know of a man who is about as
far from being effeminate as a man
can be. judged by his body and brain.
And yet that man rakes his place at
the sink, and isn't half bad when if
comes to performing on the kitchen
range. .
He says be learned the trick in
camp, where it was his job to get the
breakfast. The family used to have
strong coffee, soggy cereals, and ro
bust muffins when he got the meal,
but they liked the fun of seeing him
play cook. Hail to tin* Chef!

CHILDREN’S CHAPTER MEETS
The Henry London chapter of
the Children of Confederacy held
its regular meeting for the month
of April at the home of Mary
Brewer. The meeting was called to
order by the president. The Lord’s
Prayer was repeated in concert,
after which the minutes were read
and approved. The subject for *the
afternoon was “Stratford, Home of
Lee.” Interesting readings were
given by Margaret Guinn, Bertha
Lee Poe and Mary Brewer. Busi
ness of the chapter was discussed
and it was decided that new officers
are to be elected at the next meet
ing.
We regret to say that Mrs. Stan
ley Riggsbee, whom the chapter is
helping support, is very ill at the
Confederate Woman’s home in Fay
etteville. The corresponding secre
tary of the chapter was advised to
send her a letter xpressing our
sympathy. After singing the last
song, “Dixie,” delightful lemonade
and cake were served by the hostess.

A WORD FROM C. C. HALL
I wish here to express to my
customers the appreciation I feel
for each and every purchase made •
by them while I was in the retail
business, as I realize the customers
made my business. The fact is,
for several months prior to the sale
of my business I was working on
the line of hosiery which you will
soon see advertised and which con
sists of a complete line for men,
women, and children, of all prices,
colors and patterns. This line of
hosiery will be gnown as “Hall’s
Tailored Hosiery, Knit Better for
Longer Wear.”
Trusting that every former cus
tomer of mine will purchase at
least one pair of “Hall’s Hosiery,”
as I sincerely believe if you wear
one pair of my hose you will be a
continuous wearer of “Hall's Hos
ier,”
I am respectfully,
C. C. HALL.
