a welcome visitor Monday. Sam said
alter disposing of hlr. tobacco crop
last year he was just- about ready
to give up and quit; but things are
different lust now. He had sold a
Iqad. of tobacco and said he believed
thereto- Deal was going ib put him
on'top once more.
Thad K^, Jones, who is well
known to our readers for the splen
. did articles he semis in/was a
'pleasant visitor Monday. Mr. Jones
says he did not -have a crop this
year, but he was with his little
grandson who sold his small patch
of tobacco and realized a little more
than $100 for the patch. Mr. Jones
Is convinced that he quit raising
tobacco one year too soon.
Mr. R. L. Paylor, another good.
Person county farmer, was a wel
come caller last Thursday. He re
ported a most satisfactory sale
which averaged $39.14. Averages of
$40 and $50 are of common occur
rence on this market.
Along about this time every year
the Rotary club entertains the
teachers of the town, and they are
enjoyable meetings, but the last
was especialy enjoyable for this
writer. We had the pleasure of be
ing seated between two of-the most
interesting and most charming
young ladies connected with the
teaching force, Miss Inda Collins,
principal of the Grammar school,
and Miss Claire Harris of the fa
culty of the grammar school. Both of
these young ladles are past mas
ters at repartee, and while some
times It stung, still, we enjoyed
every minute of the evening and
regretted when the parting song
was sung.
Smiles, smiles, smiles, every one
with tobacco is smiling, and why
not? Any kind of a load will net
more than a hundred dollars?and
that is real money, we tell you.
The man who hauls his tobacco
to some foreign market is simply
losing money and wasting time, for
the Roxboro market is showing
them the way. Several loads av
eraged above fifty dollars per hun-_
dred here Monday. Stick to Roxboro.

In spite of wet weather, some Ca
tawba farmers say they will tore
from 50 to 60 tons of hay. Much of
is a fine quality of lespedeza.

: Get your child "out of bed in
j time for breakfast. He cannot set
tle down to work if he has not
been fed properly. Just will his
afternoon classes be dull for him if
I he dotjs not have a well selected,
i well cocked, anj carefully packed
lunch. If hi$ lunch Is bread and
meat, make good bread and broil or
boil the meat. Make a neat sand
' hare each sandwich wrapped in sep
arate paper. If an egg is added,
!cook It right; so often we lose the
food value of eggs by cooking them
too fast or too long. A serving of
fruits can be packed easily. Cake
should be separated from the other
lunch by wax paper. A. bottle TJf
milk should accompany each lunch
box to school, as milk is our most
protective food, and is indisjpen
sable in the child's diet.
More care should - certainly be
given to the school lunch, for our
children of today will be the men
and women of tomorrow. Let your
child's daily diet consist of a pro
tective food such as milt, butfter,
cheese, one egg daily, at least^ne
serving of . green, vegetable daily.
arid one serving of some colored
vegetable also each day, one serving
