C THE PILOT JACKSON SPRINGS NEWS qIY for Bethesda church the first Sunday in July where many of our gncesti>rs attended church before and gfter the organization of our Presby- church more than a century Xone will travel or dress as in those days. Many rode horseback to church in those days, while others ^valked and some carried their shoes, setting' down on a log before getting ^0 chui‘h, putting on the footwear j^^ade in the homes from home-tanned legtht'i’ and greased with tallow or goats. 'j'he ^^ame of baseball that was to lie played with Troy Saturday after- iioon forfeited to the locals, visiting team not appearing on ^lie scene of battle that would have lieen a one-sided affair with the lo cal hi^i^ school reinfoKced by old am- eturs, college men, and visiting men that ^vollld have been a good ame- tuer game. The local high school team played a picked bunch of play ers defeating them 7 to 5. Jenkins, a fifteen year old of the Jones Springs section started on the mound for the “pickups.” He had speed and curves jjut lacked control and showed much promise of a good player. He was relieved by Herndon after three in nings, who gave way to McAskill be fore he retired the side. Kelly for the “Pickups” and Earnhardt for the highs fielding were the features of the game. Misses Mary and Juanita Bruton entertained several friends Saturday evening in honor of their house guest,, Miss Blanche Bruton, of Mount Gil ead. John O’Quinn and H. Poole have re turned from the Sharlotte Sanatorium where they underwent operations for appendicitis. Both young men are doing well. Mrs. Cattie Blue Campbell and Rev. Jasper Williams, of route 1, were united in marriage Wednesday by Rev. Staley of Eagle Springs. Miss Ailine Herndon who is taking nurses training at a New Bern hospit al, is spending her vacation with rela tives near here. ^Ir. and Mrs. Charlie Ehrhart, of Houston, Texas, who have been spend ing their honeymoon in North Caro lina visited the letter’s aunts, Misses Louisa and Sarah Copeland at the old Tope/and home south west of here a few days ago. The Copelands were among the early settlers in this sec tion. The dwelling built of hewn logs is two stories high and is good for a few more generations. It was erected by Mrs. Ehrhart’s great-grandfather near where the Cowpen stood during revol tionary days. The mulberry sapling that was used to tie the suck ing calves to grew to be a large tree, decayed and in the hollow of the tree a ten-foot rail could be turned around. The tree was cut many years ago as a protection for the house. Mrs. Ehrhart is the only daughter of the late John Copeland who mi grated to Mississippi about thirty years ago. Since his death about fif teen years ago his widow and three children have resided in Houston, Texas. Miss Myrtle Poole is the guest of Mrs. R. B. Norris, of Charlotte, while there Miss Poole will have a slight operation performed. D. Reece and sons, Olein and ^^ussell, are visiting at Siloam. Page ThrM Not many years ago a couple who persisted in undecent dancing were asked to leave the floor. Larger crowds attended dances in those days taking in consideration good roads, automobiles and the increase in pop ulation. We are not blaming young people (girls included) for getting “tipsy,” but the managers of dance halls who allow and encourage drink ing and are against the laws of our state. We are proud that our young people are growing disgusted by the acts of others and the sentiment is so strong that they are not taking active part in the modern dances of today with the attractive dresses that draw attention. Yet some may be in fluenced, even if their parents are not. Meredith Herndon, of Raleigh, is at home from Suffolk, Va., where he has been in a hospital since he fell from a train, breaking a rib some time ago. Miss Agnes Graham is at home from the Charlotte Sanatorium much improved. Several of our young ladies have gone to various summer schools. The Christian Endeavor Society were able to hold their meetings in the cool of the evening Sunday as the church was allowed lights again. The stores have lights again and are proud of them but will be more so when the residences and stores are put on a separate line from those who have caused much darkness and hardfeel- ings. Power comes from the Smith- erman Power Company with line ex tended from the Samarcand Manor school. This company furnishes a 24 hour current. Operators of auction tobacco ware houses seem to think something is badly wrong with co-operative sys tem. Are they the farmer’s friend, when they encourage and help him in breaking his contract. The contract has stood and will stand until the time is up. And the best thing for the farmer is to stick, encourage and im prove our co-operative marketing system which is much better than the old system or the auction men would not spend so much time nnd money against the co-operative way of sell ing. Jason Auman who has been in the Charlotte Sanatorium for several weeks has been brought to his home at Norman and is critically ill. visited Mr. and Mrs. M. I. Ball on Sunday.

Atlanta. Ga. The Power to Produce The Power to Save These the farmer must develop who would forge ahead in his business. The power to produce depends upon the ability to judge good animals, plants and seeds, machines and materials, as well as good farm hands. The power to save involves the ability to spend practically; to spend so that there will be a surplus to put in the bank. Our officers pride themselves on working closely with the farmers of this section. 1 Vass, North Carolina “HERE WE COME, DERN OUR FOOL SOULS, HEAD US SOMEBODY,” Said the boy who had tied himself up to the calf which then proceeded to run away. If you notice the situation in the Southern Pines and Knollwood vicinity you recognize the boy’s predicament. On all sides it is new building, new development, new purchases of town and rural land. EDGEMOORE HEIGHTS is in the center of the activity. House Site, Orchard Site, Farm Site—the best in the county. One of these days land values in this section will go skyrocketing. Then the man who has a piece of Edge- moore Heights will be shedding no tears. Edgemoore Heights is sold by FRANK BUCHAN, Southern Pines, N. C. S. B. RICHARDSON, Southern Pines, N. C.
