jnrnsnAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1930, $ * : TOWN and * ; COUNTY BRIEFS * * ************** * * * \ltom M. Riddle, who with J Riddle is employed at a hospi- Kink's Park, Long Island, was pittsboro visitor this week. Otto Wolff of Vienna, Md., '* rew up in this community, ?' hl been visiting boyhood friends community this week. Tues -sL‘ia* partly spent in carrying , raV es of the Wolff family in Methodist churchyard. Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. T Johnson of the Asbury church nmn 1 unity upon the birth of a Santrhter Sunday night. She is Miss Taeauebne Adair. Manifestly, Jack jfjJv get to give his name to any i -he four brothers. This is the " end #riil. One of the larger boys welcomed her on the ground that he should not have to wipe any more dishes. Tax payers should note that there e uvo calls for taxes in this issue the Record. That over the name Sheriff Blair is for the taxes J pr 1929 and previous years, whi'e that o’er the name of C. C. Poe, n e\vly appointed tax-collector, is , >r {he 1930 taxes. Advertisement -or the sale of lands for 1929 taxes }s long overdue, but will come. That for 1930 taxes will be due May 1 that is the advertisement of lands for sale. An item is going the rounds of the papers to the effect that some town has a hundred widows. That started somebody to counting the widows in Pittsboro and the num ber ran up to thirty among the white population, while there are less than a third as many widowers. The Record regrets to learn of the removal of Mr. Tutwiler, cash ier of the Page Trust Company at giler City, to Bur.ington. It proba bly means a promotion to Mr. Tut wiler, but his going is a distinct loss to Chatham county. Mrs. Mattie Lanius visited her daughter in Durham Tuesday, the latter being reported ill. The paper is being mailed on Thanksgiving Day. We hope you are enjoying the day and that you are really thankful for the many bless ings that you have received. How ever, it is hard for some to recon cile their trials and tribulations with the idea of blessing, but the fire purifies the gold. As for the Record’s family, we have many reasons to be thankful, despite the fact that we could wish for a great er flow of cash that would enable them to meet more readily the de mands upon them. Mr. L. E. Thomas, who has been engaged in the drug business 35 years and manager of a drug store for five years in Wilmington, and who recently come to his country home on Moncure rt. 2, while mak ing headquarters there will offer himself for relief work in the drug stores of the near-by towns and cities; that is, when a drug store needs a man for fill-in work for any short time, he is ready for the job. Mr. Thomas is really attached to the old homestead occupied so long and honorably by his parents, and wants their friends and his own friends to call upon him there. We failed to note that Dr. and Mrs. Farthing were up from Wil mington for the funeral of Mr. J. L. Griffin. Mr. W. N. Dixon writes that Rev. N. H. Shepherd of Wake Forest will preach at Carolina School house, Cumnock, RFD 2, at 2:30 on the afternoon of the fifth Sunday (next Sunday) and that everybody is in vited to hear him. The engagement of Miss Alma Dark, of Roseboro, to Rev. Charles Howard of Wake Forest, president of the State Baptist Young Peo ple’s Union, has been announced. Miss Dark, w r ho is a senior at Mere dith College, is a daughter of a former citizen of this county. Miss Camilla Powell, who has been with the Cotton Cooperative Association at Raleigh for the past few months, has accepted a position as stenographer with the Hoover Chair Company of Lexington. We have received an account of a delightful party given by Miss Rosa Lillian Avent on the Falls- Neusc road Nov. 17. GALVANIZED ROOFING WE GUARANTEE “AJAX BRAND” Super Coated Galvanized Roofing 1.

Phone 371 Goldston, N* C. \ j The Children of the Confederacy will meet with Miss Maggie Horne Friday afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. N. M. Hill of Kin ston will spend Thanksgiving here with his sister Mrs. W. L. Powell, with whom his mother is spending the winter to avoid being alone in her old home. Mr. C. S. Copeland, one of the seven brothers on our list, who lives at Cary, was over Monday and carried up his date. Mr. W. L. Farrell, who served as acting cashier of the Bank of Pittsboro during the illness of Mr. J. L. Griffin, has been officially pro moted to the casbiership. Mr. Thom as Morgan has been made assistant cashier. Both these young men de serve the promotion that has come to them. We suspect that a quite a number of old students attending the re union at Siler City failed to regi ster. Forinstance, we did not see the name of Mr. C. A. Snipes on the list published by the Siler City News, from which we copied the list appearing in this paper. And we seem to have omitted the names of Geo. F. Crutchfield, of Efland, and J. K. Clark, Hampton, Va. Mrs. L. H. Saunders was very ill for several days with p.eurisy. Rev. Sidney Womack, colored, who has been pastor of Stanton’s Temple A. M. E. church, here, has been sent to Union Mills, where he is to serve two churches and hopes for better grazing. Rev. B. E. Golfin comes from Bethel to take his place. Rev. Womack has been a good citi zen while here. Jonesboro ceases to be a regular station on the old Yadkin Valley R. R., and Corinth on hte Norfolk Southern loses its express office. Report reached Pitstboro Wednes day of last week to the effect that two men had been killed and one injured when an army truck col lided with a tobacco truck at San ford, but fortunately none was killed but Mr. Lawrence Brady of High Falls was seriously injured and his father and Mr. H. R. Phillips, of Bonlee, were also injured. They were cared for at Scott’s Hospital, Sanford, and the latter two were reported later in the week as re covering from their injuries. There were hopes for the recovery of Lawrence Brady. George Hollis Tally, a son of the late W. J. Tally, committed suicide in Winston-Salem Monday of last week, and the body was brought to Bonlee for burial. The Record has never learned the particulars of the tragedy. MRS. MARGARET BURNETT CELEBRATES 85TH BIRTHDAY (Contributed) On November 22 the children, grandchildlren and great-grandchild ren, other erlatives, neighbors, and .friends of Mrs. Margaret Burnett met at her home to celebrate her 85th birthday. Mrs. Burnett is the second daugh ter of the late Mark Bynum and Mary Clegg Bynum. Os the large family, only Mrs. Burnett and one sister survive, Mrs. Adolphus Burns, now of Goldsboro. Mrs. Burnett was married Dec. 16, 1867 to Mr. John M. Burnett, deceased. Three children survive, namely, Mrs. G. C. children survive, namely, Mrs. G. G. Ward, and R. B. and John F. Burn ett. There are eleven grandchildren and one great-grandchild. Early in the morning friends and relatives began to gather in the beautiful grove with its tinted coats of autumn leaves, bringing many well-filled baskets, aslo many pretty and useful gifts, which were highly appreciated by the recipient. At one o’clock a long table was heavily laden with many good things to eat. Two large birthday cakes, beaming with 85 tiny candles, graced the table. Her pastor, Rev. R. R. Gordon, paid a beautiful tribute to Mrs. Burnett’s life, speaking of her as a woman of rare ability and of unusual knowledge of the Bible, of her keen interest in her friends, her wholesome, uplifting conversa tion. She is remarkably strong, physically, intellectually, and spirit ually, being well read and of a mind capable of interpreting and ap plying what she reads. Mr. W. B. Cheek, a newphew by marriage, made a few but very fitting remarks. Then followed a toast by Mrs. Jeter J. Hackney, which space forbids printing here, though it was so very oppropriate. Immediately after dinner Miss Flossie Cole of Raleigh led in smg- THE CHATHAM RECORD, PITTSBORO, N. C. i ( ing old favorite hymns. Soon after dinner pictures were made, the most striking being that of the four generations including Mrs. Burnett, her daughter Mrs. Ward, and her daughter Mrs. J. C. Cran ford, and her son Ward Cranford. It was a great day and suggestive of the great reunion above that will not have to end. We all wish Mrs. Burnett many more birthdays. *************** * * ’Brown’s Chapel News’ *************** About half the money needed to pay for the new piano was raised Sunday. Those who desire to con tribute to the fund may pay Mr. Junius Durham. Milk is to be cut ten cents on the gallon in Durham, we are told, and this is serious for our dairy men. Mr. Kiah Henderson, of Raleigh, Mr. Wm. Mann and friends of Dur ham, and Mr. John Durham and friends from Burlington spent some time here last week at their o.d homes and in hunting. Mr. J. F. Bouldin sold a load of 1718 pounds of tobacco last week at the Tilley warehous, Sanford, at an average of 23 cents, but getting as high as fifty cents for some. Only $38.50 remains unpaid on our pastor’s salary. We understand that this is not his only church in arrears. A cut in the pastor’s salary is expected for next year, regard less of who the pastor may be. The rest of us are having to cut ex penses and the preacher will probab ly have to do the same. Yet a dollar is worth more now to the j salaried man than formerly. Mr. J. R. Goodwin attended the funeral of his cousin Dr. Trailkill at Ebenezer church Sunday. i Mrs. A. P. Dark attended a birth- 1 day dinner in honor of her mother, Mrs. Ed. Williams, over in Bald win’s township Sunday. Mr. Oby Thomas and familv. of Burlington, spent Saturday night wjth Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Duham. i The game law permits hunting 1 now, but we folk who have leased hunting rights are out of the hunt ing business. Man Run Over and Killed Thursday (From The Hamlet News-Messenger) Arthur M. McCollum, white man about 45 years old, of Burlington, was run over Thursday night while walking on the highway between here and Rockingham. It is under stood he had started out for Red Springs. W. D. Brown, of White ville, who hit Mr. Brown, was meet ing a car and was blinded by the approaching car’s lights.

Charlie McCollum, brother of the dead man, came here and made fun eral arrangements. The deceased was divorced and left no children. ® Unknown White Man Killed Near Maxton (From The Hamlet News-Messenger) An automobile, driven by Henry Fairly, Charlotte man, struck and killed an unindentified white man, apparently about 55 years old, Fri day night near Maxton. Mr. Fairly was obsolved of blame at a coroner’s inquest. According to the driver, the un known man ran up to his car as though to jump on the running board. Fairly said he could not avoid striking him. The body was carried to an undertaking establish ment at Laurinburg. Mr. Fairly was originally from Rockingham, having been in Char lotte for the past few years. <g> •- * CURRENT COMMENT I , Italy moves on entire rebellious population of eighty thousand sever al hundred miles across the sands of Africa to the shores of the Dediter ranean, thereby extending to large affairs, the little red schood bouse doctrine that the bad boy belongs on the front seat. The Bureau of Home Economics has found an important out et for cotton fabric. Perhaps female rai ment is referred to. It is more ef i fective as an outlet than as a covering, in some styles. Genoa has come forward again to defend its claims as the birth place of Columbus. Europeans think well of Christopher because he was the man who showed them how to i get out of Europe. 1 The Soviet government plans to link Moscow with Alaska by air transportation. The word “link” suggests that it might be wise to watch out for a chain. The business of this country isn’t exactly sick, but it does feel the fall elections 'Coming on. * * * A visiting clerical from Europe I has concluded not to enter into : point debate with a local free -thinker. It lis questionable whether i either side would have made a substantial gain as a result of the harangue. Goethe hit the nail on the head, when he made one of , his characters say: “I am a foe to long arguments. They deceive either the maker or the hearer, and sometimes both.” of women depend upon Bayer Aspirin every month to spare them from those pains peculiar to women. These tablets do not depress the heart; they may be used as frequently as there is need of their quick comfort. So, it’s folly to endure ans pain that Bayer Aspirin could relieve so promptly.
