W« trust he will improve the paper and make it a necessity in every home in Martin County. The only es sential part is the support and en couragement of the leaders in ev ery community of the county, and a steady and fearless fight for ev erything that makes for the moral bettermeut. MR. EVERETT FOR THE LEGISLATURE. Wc do not thiuk the county could send a better, a more efficient, energetic man to represent her than Mr. Everett. He is young but buoyant, and sanguine to the last degree and whatever he may undertake for the growth and progress of his native county he will accomplish if j*r sisteut effort and hard work count for anything. Like Mr C. C. Daniels, he is a clean, pure man, and the |»olitical world is clamor ing for such men to guide the Ship of State on the disturbed waters left by the politicians—like Piatt and r>uay, Gorman and hundreds of others in National and State politics. This class of men is rapidly pass ing out and we are glad to see such men as Mr. Everett and Mr. Dan iels before the voters of our county. It devolves 011 you fellow-citi /ens of Martin to name a candidate foi the Legislature that will use every faculty to get what you ask for. It is your sacred duty to name a man that stands for what you stand -for work—for the bet termeut of your county in everv way possible. You send a man to the Legisla ture to work—like you for your own interest. He is your servant and therefore* at your command. Not as a dictator do I name Mi. Everett, but as a voter, looking out for the best interest of ray county. You are the people that say who shall be your representa tive ill the Legislature and we trust you will pass the critic's eye over Mr. Everett and reach the same conclusion that we here reach that he is the logical man for the place—that he will l>e our representative in the strictest sense of word. dinclinn 01 Socletv at Close ot School at Jamesvllle. The season has arrived for clos ing of school and I must state that oven a town like Janiesville was at its highest in the past week. On Sunday night June 3rd Mr. .V. Cory principal of the school iiad.secured Mr. P. L. Kir ton, • of Williatnston to preach a sermon at I M. K. Church. Mr. Kirton's subject was faith: which hebcauti-j fully illustrated for young and old fwlks to clearly understand. At- ( terwards he paid his compliments to the school and teachers. 1 will now go a little further on 1 iu the week. A large crowd gathered in Mr. Wallace's Hall where the children's cxcerclses took place. The program consisted of recita tions songs and tableaus. I frel bound to mention a few items of special interest. First the opening song The Old North State by the entire school and the little dialogue entiled In cident on a Rail Road car Through the Country, by Miss Tillie Ward and Master Drady Gurkin, with sploadkl talant and execution. 1 mult hot forget a tableaux Stars and VUipea JV five girls dressed in White ths most beautiful and graoefal poses under the rays of red light effects. This closed the program for Tnursday night under great applause of the crowd. rri day ins the last day of the excite meut. At the early hour of 11 a in. the good people gathered at the church to hear Dr. R. T, Vaun, president of the Raleigh Baptist Female University deliver an ad dress 00 the subject: Education and its Worth in Practical Life. This wltaMMito with the greitest attention I have ever seen here and certainly highly appreciated. At i p, m. they all gathered at Pine Grove to partake in an open air dinner provided by the ladies residing here. Al 3:30 p. m. spec tators were plentiful at the ball grounds awaiting the baseball game between the L. S. C. and James ville teams. It proved to be a very exciting game. The L. S. C. boys beat the town boys wan 1410 9- At 8 30 p. m. the croMd gather ed again at the hall where they were trerted with tne presentment of the great Pluuimer Breach of promise case. This was rendered far beyond expectations. I must again com pliment Tillie Ward, also Misses Hilda Ward, Klla Stubbs and Hathleeu Wallace and Messrs. H. Hardisou and M. D. Hardison. They also here closed with a couple of artistic tableaux. Be fore closing I must recommend aud pay my compliments to Mr. A. Corey, as principal of the school, and heartily wish him as big a suc cess each year. PROF. W. B. CARLOS Evening at Cedar Branch Chil dren's* Day. The afternoon lieing rainy, some thought it best not to go oIU at night, but others could not the opportunity and by dark the people were gathering at the church to witness the exercises prepared for Children's Day. The church was beautifully decorated with evergreens and flowers. Hy nine o'clock the house was full of jjeopW from every direction. While the introduction was being played the school remained quiet. Then the IHJII was tapped and the follow ing programme was very beauti fully carried out Song by the School —"We are Loyal tp Our Sunday School." Responsive Reading "slst Psalm." Song—"Praise the Lord." Prayer, by Elder T. J. Crisp, of Conetoe. The remainder of the programme consisted of recitations, panto ■nines, marches and duets. We would not pass without speaking of the little children who repre seured the rain-bow. The rain bow was put up over their heads and they all wore a rosette to rep resent their color. Also we must mention the song entitled "Vio lets.'J Eighteen girls, all about the same size and dressed in white, inarched on the stage, nine of them carrying violets The first nine sang the intorogattve, and the others kneeling, sang the reply, "Be True." livery thiug went on nicely and Cedar Branch Sunday school gain ed the confidence of many who had been negligent. All who saw it express their appreciation and congratulation. There is another programme on the hook fot the 4th of July. The contribution, which was six dollars, goes to distribute bibles in the desolate places. A SUNDAY SCHOOL W'OKKKK Sketch of Lite of Mr. S. Justus Everett. In view of the fact that tlij can didacy of Mr. Kverett for thi Leg islature is being discussed, I mink that it will not be unfitting i«n me to give a brief sketch of his ttfe— having known hint for three years in college, and for five years ' -*tore he came to Wtlliamston. Mr. S. Justus Everett, s■» of Mr. Justus Everett, formerly #u«»- ty commissioner, and one tl»e mast successful farmers o '*ls section, was born at Hamilt> u on March 4, 1878. After se *iiug careful instruction under Pi «*M ors Duckett and Outerbridi #, at Hamilton and xßoberso - (Ilk, and later under Prof. \\ at Vine Hill Academj M Scotland Neck, he rnatric at the University in 1898. Jmrnr years ot good, steady, con Mit ious work brought nim his d' «NM June, 1902. Asa student, h> —m.le a good record, standing amo + \me. first in his class in chemistry and geology. His inclinations led him to make a special study of Latin, history and political economy. This last study well equipped him, for the handling of subjects of de bate pertaining to governmental affairs, such as "Dispensary or Prhibition," "Government Own ership of Railroads" and "Ship Subsidy." On three public oc ! casions he represented his society in debate, and each time he was on the winning side, the last time winning the' debater's prize at the commencement of his Junior year. During his senior year he was of the editors of the College An nual, the University Magazine, and president of the Philanthropic Society. After graduation he was princi pal of the Graded Schools of Mon roe one* year, and Salisbury one year. In the summer of 1904 he returned to the University and completed his course in- law, re ceiving his license to practice in August of that year. Spending the fall on his father's farm he as sociated himself with Lieuteuant Governor Winston, for the prac tice of his profession. Every one knows how Mr, Ev erett lias identified himself with the various interests of town and county since he has been amoug 11s. lie organized the Merchants Association of Williamstou, and lie was instrumental in extending Maiu street and building the clay road. He is now secretary of the county Farera Association. His close study of, and famil iarity with, the problems that con front legislators; his active interest in everything that j>ertaius to the welfare of his county; his knowl edge of the needs of farmer, mer chant and business man, confirm me in the belief that Mr. Everett would be a steady, conscientous, hardworking representative. *\ S. HASSKU Following Till Fll| When our soldiers went to Cuba and the Philipines, health was the most important consideration. Williss T. Morgan retired Commis sary Sergeant U. S. A., of Rural Route 1, Concord, N. H., says; "I was two years in Cuba and two years in the Philipines, and being sudject to colds, I took Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, which kept me in j>erfect health. And now, in New Hampshire, we find it the l>est medicine in the world for coughs, colds, bronchial trovbles, and all lung diseases. Guaranteed at S. R Biggs drug gist. Price 50c and SI.OO.

In our town for the past week some have been rejoicing, others mourning. The close of school makes some glad, Others sorry. Some are sick and suiTe-ing, others are hearty and enjoying life, but not in the fullest, for they are forgetful of the riches they possess. We will not mention the jx'rson als this week, but speak of things in general; though at this writing we hnve in mind the names of many who have come and gone; some have gone away to accept po sitions, others for pleasure, and others still for busbies, and tht coining has been the satne, for some are here after positions and some are having a good time. The short letter on the Jatnes ville Pests last week may have done good, for we can walk on dry ground now where the mud and filth was last week, and still better things being planned. We are glad to note some new stores opening and one being built. We are not going to be left all the time —we have many inducements for people to ?otne to our town. The farmer can sell his cotton for the highest market price—to our own knowl edge, one man came from near Washington to engage cotton to our merchants. Not only cotton but all farm products; and too, the farmer may exchange his produce for merchandise at very low prices. The farmers also can sell their po tatoes light here and get the best prices and have their money at otk.-e. They need not wait for them to be shipped and take chances of be*.ng lost. There aie a few things we would like to have improved; Some one llxes to slip whiskey around the corner, for we see the fruits of such. ' We know that plain water will net make people drunk, though we see such tjfteu. Now I remember the story of the bee hunt, when Ned and Phil were boys—they caught the bee, put a piece of cotton on him and when several went in the came direction they were sure the tree was that way, and this thing detenis along that same way. You may watch to your own satisfaction. So now with other improvements, let us remember Gov. Glenn's lecture: "Is th* Young Man Safe, If Not, Can We Hep to Make Him So?" DtitlFria Loekjiw never follows an injury dressed with Bncklen's Arnica Salve. Its antisceptic and healing properties prevent blood poisoning. Chas. Oswald, merchant, of Renesselaeis ville, N. Y., writes- "It cured Seth Burch, of this place, of the ugliest sore on his neck I ever saw." Curescuts, Wounds, burns and sores. 25c at S. R. Biggs drug store.
