Cameron News The following very interesting letter has been received by the cor respondent from Mr. Alfred F. Gra ham, who witli his thoroughbred game chickens, spent the month of December at Orlando, Fla. January 17, 1921. Dear Mrs. Harrington: I am back from the land of flow ers white sajici and lemons, and I like to forgotten to say (tourist). The tourist are by far the best crop that Florida has, every hotel and rooming liouse is filled to ca pacity, and then tenting begins, they-come from everywhere, I saw one outfit from Quebec, Canada, and came all the way in a Ford, quite an a(lvertisement for a Ford. Tampa is a hustling city, but I found Yarhor City which adjoins Tampa and is nearly as large, most interesting, to me. Yarbor City is the Havana of V. S. and is a Cuban city proper nearly all of these Cu* bans are^ interested in game chick ens, and I had much pleasure look ing over their various strains, saw a few' battles, and won a little money on the side. I found Orlando to be the most beautiful city I have yet looked upon, beautifully shaded streets, lakes, and oceans of flowers, ’tis this city wliere the Deer Island Game club resides, and I met sports from all parts of the 1-. S. and Canada, saw some 1,200 game fighting birds. witnessed some 80 or more battles and picked up about $700 by back ing the right cocks. Another thing I want to mention I found that Christ lives in Orlando, Dr. C. D. Christ, suppose this ac counts for the loveliness of city^ Well it w'as a fine trip, but who would want to live in Florida, when they have lived in dear old North* Carolina? ALFRED F. GRAHAM. /■ S.—My own birds won by big odds and made me many friends. [Continued on page eight] Lakeview Surveyor Bailey, of Carthage, is here for a few days doing some survey work for Mr. J. R. McQueen. Miss Blanch McNeill spent Monday in Raleigh, shopping. Miss Alice Brown, of Prosperity, is visit ing her sister, Mrs. Walter Deaton, this week. Miss Frances Gardner is in Pinehurst this week the guest of her brother. Mr. Lloyd Gardner. Mrs. W. D. Caviness and children, Glenn and Francess Lee, spent the week-end with relatives in Aberdeen. Mr. A. M. Alcott, engineer for the James Leffel Company, of Springfield, Ohio, ar rived Friday and is installing the large water wheel for the electric light and power company. They hope to have this job complete and the wheel in use before many more days which will help the sit uation immensely. Mr. and Mrs. Biur arrived in town from Attica, N. Ym to spend rest of the winter with their brother, Mr. E. P. Burr. Mr. and Mrs. Walter Deaton have been right sick for the past week, but we are glad to report them improving. Miss Ida McLeod, from the James McConnell Hos pital has been with them for several days. Miss Pearl McNeill is substituting for Mr. Deaton in his school work. Mr. and Mrs. 0. H. Stutts and Mr. and Mrs. Lloy<J Gardner, all of Pinehurst, were Sunday visitors in our Village. Miss Blythe Carrol, of Gardner, is spend ing this week with her grand-parents, Mr. and Mrs. S. J. Gardner, here. Champion Hog Rtusers Messrs. Daniel Smith and Milton Brewer recently made a trip to Upper Hoke and returned with twenty-seven new subscrib ers with the promise of plenty additions shortly. Mrs. Sarah Wright and Mr. Jas. T. Marks who became subscribers are con sidered the champion hog raisers of that section. They killed two hogs each on the day of the visit that weighed 1,423. The hogs killed by Mrs. Wright were 12 months old and weighed 386 and 374 pounds, and the two killed by Mr. Marks were 14 months old and weighed 334 and 329 pounds. There was a friendly rivaly be tween the two. Mrs. Wright wagered that she could defeat Mr. Marks in raising pigs, and since woman’s suffrage has come into existance, naturally she won out.
