.m JACKSON SPRINGS One of the largest crowds of the season was here for the dance on Saturday night. It looks like old times to see a crowded floor A large number of towns were repre sented, some coming from quite a distance. During the hot weather visitors and residents are taking advantage of the swimming pool near the spring, and the lake where we get our power for lights. At the present there are bathing suits for sale here, and the Sandhill Drug Store has a few rubber bathing caps to keep the hair dry. The community picnic was not a complete failure on last TSuesday evening, although it was raining. Quite a number of the people brought their picnic lunch to the dormitory and all feasted together, played many games and had some special mnsic by Miss Ella May Poole, of Raeford, and other young ladies. The picnic was to be held at the Mc Kenzie Mineral Spring on the banks §1 Drowning Creek, three miles north west of here. The picnic in August will be held at Currie’s Bridge, three miles south of h^rPj f I’he O^tolina Construction Co., of Hamlet, has a force of hands at work at the Samarcand Manor school. Material is fast coming in for the new buildings. Miss Thelma Ellis and young sister, of Grover, are stopping at Mrs. W. E. Blue’s for a few weeks. Miss Ellis was a very efficient music teach er here last year. Editor D. S. Poole and family, of Raeford, were here Sunday shaking hands with old friends. Miss Ada Daugherty, who holds a position at Tarboro, is. visiting rela tives and friends in and around here. E. A. Maurice, of New York City, who owns the Maurice orchards, is here for a while. Mr. Cartland, representing the Artie Ice Cream Company, of Greensboro, was here a few days ago and an nounced he was going to buy three carloads of Sandhill peaches to make peach cream. Peaches in the Sandhill section may be wormy this year, but it is not a sign they will continue to be so, for we have always known peach trees in fertile spots that have no attention to have wormy fruit. Even if the Sandhill peaches are not so good they are very much superior to the Georgia peach, our greatest competitor. Peach packers coming from Georgia say our fruit is nicer and that this is the real peach section, for the life of the tree is longer. West End won 3 out of 4 ball games last week. Outside of the league the fast Rockingham team met-, defeat 2 to 1, and the Ellerbe team 9 to 1. In the latter game Moss stole 2nd, 3rd and home before his side was re tired. In the game with Biscoe, Young featured with the stick with 5 hits out of five times up in their 10 to 2 defeat. TRUCK FOR CANNING LESS Miss Proffit, the county home demonstration agent, says the truck for canning this year will be less than in past seasons and she urges every woman in the county to watch for all the stuff she can get to can or pre serve in any way and care for it for winter. The same reports come from all over the country. The dry sum mer has spoiled much of the garden stuff, and the early spring frosts killed the fruit and vegetables in many of the sections where that kind of food matei'ial is made for the canneries. So Miss Proffit warns everybody to go to unusual efforts to provide for the winter, and not to depend on What cannot be forthcoming from other sources. The latter part of this sea son may produce something in the gardens that can be saved for winter, and some fruit may yet be availa{)le. But she thinks nothing should be al lowed to get away that can be saved. SUGAR TRO Mr. and Mi*8. J. A. Thomas and family, of near Cameron, visited at the home of Mr. J. R. Thomas, Sun day afternoon.
