Means at Rockland Farm. Mr. and Mrs. Brandon W. Means •entertained uniquely in honor of Miss Catharine Goodman and her guests, Miss Blanche Bell, of San Antonia, Texas, and Miss Lydia Fitzgerfttd, of Clarksdale, Miss., with a great bar becue at Rockland Farm, west ol Concord, la Thursday afternoon. Some 400 guests gathered around the festive boards in tne little picturesque ravine to feast of the delectable meats. The merry occasion was held in a beautiful, cool, natural setting. Alongside a- babbling brook, which draws ite life from several springs, the great feast was spread. Huge trees, whose slightly tinted leaves give hint of Autumn, protected the spot from the parching rays of the relentless September sun. Nature could not have furnished a more suitable place for such an event. The barbecue began about 5 o’clock and continued until twilight had fad ed into the night. The guests weie served as they arrived, their plates being heaped wih different kinds of barbecued meats, Brunswick stew, slaw or dressing, pickles, etc. A variety of soft drinks were served, and those who desired water, found pure iced water in a nearby spring. The event illustrates perfectly that neither patriotic or political meetings have a monoply any more on barbe cues. It is needless to mention what kind of a time the guests had- Good times are the only amusement one can have at such occasions. Eating, it is generally understood, is ex cellent amusement, and when it comes to providing a barbecue de luxe, Mr. Means certainly “knows his Bruns wick stew.” Dinner For Mrs. Linn. On Sunday, September 11th, the children of Mr. and Mrs. M. A. Linn gathered at their home near China Grove to help celebrate their mother’s 55th birthday anniversary. After all had assembled they spread a table in the yard, which was filled to capacity with good things to eat. After God’s blessing was asked up on each home represented and thanks for the many good things to eat, ev ery one ate until they felt that it was time they should stop. A very pleasant afternoon was spent in singing, making pictures of the family and talking of childhood days. As the time drew near to de part the ch ; ldren sang, “Home, Sweet Home.” and “God Be With You Till we meet again,” and wishing their mother many more happy birthdays left for their homes respectively.

WANTS BETHEL TO HAVE EXHIBIT AT FAIR IN OCTOBER Teacher of Agriculture at Bethel School Taking P ar i in Plans For the Fair Exhibit. Now is the time for the people of Bethel community to get busv on our Fair program. There should be full co-operation of all in this matter and I f%el sure that if we think seriousiv for a whi.e we will come to the same conclusion. If we decide as some did at the last meeting of the Com munity Club, the community exhibit will be a success. Those who were present at the last meeting of the Community Club remember the dis cussion we had as to the work re quired. I feel sure and others do too, that this community exhibit will mean much to the community and that the work will be fully rewarded through the prestige that, we receive as related to others. The fair will mean more to the peo -ple of this community if they have something in the fair; so lets see that each individual does his or her part in the community exhibit problem. It can be solved in two ways ; the cor rect way and the incorrect way : That is, if enough will work hard it can be a success, but on the other hand it will be a failure when one or two have to do the work of the whole com munity. From the fair catalogue we have the following under department A—Com munity making the best exhibit : First premium, S3O 00; second premium, $20.00; third premium, $15.00; fourth premium, SIO.OO. The scale : First —the following scale of points will be used by the judges in awarding premium in departments A and 15: Field crops 40 points, gardeu crops 10 points, home industry 10 points, fruits 10 points, -educational value 10 points, artistic arrangement 10 points. Sec ond, the entered for this premium are limited to Cabarrus coun ty, and each will be assigned to a space 8 by 16 feet. Third, a neat, sign not exceeding ten feet in length should be placed over each exhibit, giving name x>f community. Some of the things we will want to exhibit: field crops, 10 ears of some variety of corn, three stalks of some variety of cotton, half bushel, cow peas of some variety, soybeans, three stalks, half peck Mung beans, half bushel peanuts, bushel oats, half bush el rye, peck of legume seed, half a bushel of wheat and other farm crops. Horticultural products: plate of five apples, half gallon grapes, etc. Home industry: canned fruit, yeast bread, cake, clothing. Please see catalogue for complete list of the above. The community exhibit will give the people extra worth-while work but at the same time we are developing competition of values. Lets make this cpmmunity go over the top through our own efforts, -That is if we want an exhibit we can get it. Those who have failed to get a Cabarrus District Fair catalogue will be furnished by the agricultural teacher. X. SMALL STILL WAS FOUND THURSDAY; IT IS DESTROYED / ________ Still, Made From Galvanized Tub, Located in No. 10 Township by Officers of County. A small still of about 20-gallon ca pacity was found in No. 10 township Thursday by Sheriff R. V. Caldwell, .Tr., and Deputy Sheriff Carl Honey cutt. Two barre’e of beer found at the still were cut down by the officers who also destroyed the still. No ar rests were made as the still was found at such a place it would be difficult to determine its owner. The officers reported that the still was made from a galvanized tub which had been equipped with worm and cap necessary for the distilling of the beer. It was a rather crude affair and had every earmark of being a home-made affair. Concert Class at Bear Creek Charge Church.
