Mrs. James Robert Pratt. Sr., of Co-
mmDia, ooutn Carolina. The an

per party for intimate friends recent
ly. Miss O'Brien graduated from Mil
burn High School and is a senior at
the Woman's College of the Universi
ty of North Carolina. Greensboro,
where she is House President of Mina
Weil Hall, and a columist on the staff
of the -Carolina". The bride-to-be is
a direct descendant of Sir Adams
Archibald O'Brien, former governor
of Nova Scotia; and of Manitoba and
of the Rev. Eleazer Wheelock, found

and that's about all. Lt. Col. and Mrs.
H. S. Bryan and daughter, Bettey
Hart, of Greenwood, S. C. are visiting
Dr. and Mrs. ft. A. Matheson. The
Bryan's will move into the Fuller
house, which was vacated last week
by the Dooleys, Saturday or Monday.
Lt. Col. Bryan is stationed at Camp
Mackall. We owe the McGraths an
apology for omitting their name from
this column when they first moved to
Raeford. Lt. and Mrs. J. A. McGrath
are from Kansas City, Kans. and have
taken Dr. Matheson's apartment. The
Lt. is also at Camp Mackall. Bet he's
missing those good old K. C. steaks.
We still insist that the omission of
Mrs. Bogard's name from the vara
guard of army ladies who went on a
Tenn. husband hunt was purely a ty
pographical error. However our
apoligies. Jean. And speaking of ty
pographical errors, remember the time
it was officers' "Wices' Club? The
'wices" are meeting this afternoon for
bridge and cokes or some substitute.
Please note the "afternoon". The
gals decided that the mornings with
their cool breezes were much too
sleep-enticing to venture forth on
bridge playing escapades. Lt. C. D.
Obrecht is pulling at the reins, anx
ious to take off for home. He and
Lois will leave Saturday to spend ten
days with the Lieutenant's family in

pen to be playing. We just learned
that before his army days Lt. Obrecht
played the Juvenile roles in nis dad's
shows and 10 to 1 he will do a part or
two while home jusl for old time's
sake. "Lucky" Watson was in very
much of a daze Tuesday, leaving her
car keys and sun glasses in one store
and then walking off and leaving her
groceries in another store. Perhaps
her mental lapse was due to the fact
that there's a great possibility that
she and the Cnpt. and their little son
may be homeward bound for Okla.

the first part ot this week with very,
very sun-burned faces it wasn't the

What a thrill! And they said the box

Treasury Department Qualifies
The Bank of Raeford
AS
Depositary For Withheld Taxes.
Notice to Employers.
Employers are required to deposit in a qualified depositary withheld
taxes amounting to more than $100.00 in any month before the 10th of the
following month. Employers withholding taxes of $100.00 or less in a month
are NOT required to deposit such taxes in a depositary bank, but there is
nothing in the regulations prohibiting them from doing so, and qualified
depositaries will be expected to accept such deposits when tendered. It is
also permissible for employers to make deposits oftener than once each
month. It is our understanding that the Treasury Department expects ev
ery depositary to accept deposits of withheld taxes regardless of amount
when tendered in funds immediately available to the depositary, but does
not expect the depositary to advocate the making of deposits moro fre
quently than once each month.
