No man can say with any degree of truthfulness that the business of Dunn has been hurt in the least by closing up the bars.

It seems that he came near getting what he was praying for. Every man or boy who wishes to work can find em ployment now. One of our citizens called our, attention to the fact, the other day, that there was not a man in town loafing around doing nothing. We noticed after that and found that his statement was true. Dunn has no . use for ltfafers, and we are glad that we have none. The-storks have been play ing around our town again.

An effort is being made to establish a colored Missionary Baptist church at this place. The number of colored Mission ary Baptists here is small but they desire to have a church of their order. Rev.

He preached his first sermon at the town hall here Sunday, before last: He is a fairly well informed man and we are glad to know that he is coming to work among our col ored people and wish him suc cess iu his efforts. -r-Most of the boys taken to the.

Some people, wonder why the merchants in Dunn sell so cheap. It is not strange when you remember that our mer chants buy corn, flour, meal, oats', hay, stoves, plows, wag onSj buggies and other things by the solid car load. This enables them to get jobbers prices and cheap freight rates, and this saving they give to their customers. This is why they can compete with any body's prices and undersell most places.

He never knows any thing of the special bargains of fered by the merchants which he might take advantage of. Just a few days ago a man not living more than two miles from tovn ordered some tobac co flues from a distance not knowing that he could get them from the Jno. A. McKay M'f'g Co. He paid the freight which was about $2.00 and paid as much for the flues as he would have paid here. This man lost enough in this one transaction to take his home paper two years.
