Sometimes when his sis ter's friend would call he would entertain him in the drawing room until his sister came downstairs One night the young man asked the youngster if he ever peeped through the keyhole while he and the boy’s sister were in the draw ing room. With a sudden burst of candor Peter answered—"Oh, rather— when mother isn't there first!" What Love Is. An inspiration that moves the world. Without it the universe would be chaos. Made its debut in the Garden of laden. Holds the world's record for length of run. Activity not confined to any par ticular country. Thrives in all climates. Its extinction has never been suggested. Not particularly malignant. Attains its highest de gree of beauty in love of mother. Its lowest depths in love of self. HIGHLY APPRECIATED. We appreciate the following from Dr. E. D.

FARM NOTES. By W 0. Davis, County Agent, Weldon, N C. There will be ail important boll weevil meeting at Halifax on Thursday, January 17tli. Experts from the State College will be here to talk to the farmers on boll weevil control. This meeting is of vital importance to every farmer and business man in Halifax county. Be there. The home orchard needs to be pruned and sprayed this month if you haven't already done so. A I little attention now will pay well in I extra Fruit next summer. l-'irst j cut all dead and diseased branches then if necessary thin out the tree | m order to give plenty of sunshine ' to all parts of the tree. After prun ing spray thoroughly with a solu tion of concentrated lime surphur using one part of spray material to nine parts of water. This will de stroy all scale and fungus growth living over winter on the trees and keep it in a thrifty condition. Lime sulphur can be bought from seed houses and nurserymen at small cost. January is an important month in the poultry yard. Select the best young liens land mate them with good cockerels now in order ! to produce plenty of good fertile eggs for setting. It is necessary to select now so as to improve the quality o the pullets we will have next year. Just gathering eggs off the yard and setting the hens when they take the notion will not pro duce profits in poultry. Use eggs for setting only from the kind of hens you want to keep that have been mated to a good cockerel. Start breeding up your Hock by selection this month. Have you worked out your farm program for this year yet? lie sure and attend meeting at Halifax on January 17th and you will get some ideas to help you. MR. DICKENS RESIONS. Mr. R. I . Dickens, Register of Deeds for Halifax county, ten dered his resignation at the meet ing of the Board last Monday and Mr. S. B. Alsop, of Onfield, was elected to fill the vacancy. Mr. Dickens has been Register of Deeds about three years and made a most excellent officer. He leaves to enter private business. CONTRACT LET. At the regular meeting of the town commissioners on Monday night last, contract was let to L. ' Wheeden & Co., of Rosemary, for ! building a town hall and jail. The old hall will be used as a public I library SPRIGHTLY SPARKS. Gathered Mere and There and Everywhere. Dust is mud with die juice squeezed oui. People ;ind automobiles that knock need attention. A bargain that lakes money out ot Weldon is a backfire. The man who can bottle up Ins wrath at all times is a corker. We are gaining a little day light —but not so you can notice it. One of the dungs you cannot deposit at the bank is a promise. There is getting to be a close re- . lationship between car and coro ner. Men should call women "honey" when they wear combs in their hair. Many a boy who was the apple of his mother's eye turned out to | be a winesap. The wages of sin is death. And most of us are glad that pay-day is a long way off. Who raised the largest hog in Halifax county last year? Let us hear from you. Weldon is big enough to be con- j venient and small enough to be a i pleasant place to live in. Kissing a girl is like opening a ; bottle of olives—if you can get one, the rest come easy. It's a wise farmer who knows his condition—after reading what the politicians say about it. Most of the classical dances re mind os of trying lo get into a ! union suit in an upper berth. This is leap year—the year the I girls are supposed to propose in j stead of just talking the boys into I it. : Maybe they call them “third" parties because they always do [ three things—organize, get beat \ anJ quit. People would have better health , if they would remember that the ’ stomach is a workhouse and not a playhouse. j Of all the sad surprises, There’s nothing to compare With iu.,„i.ig it: e darkness On a step—wf i 'h isn't there. I his would he a much better world it we had more people lay | ing brick and fewer people throw - I ing them. Our advice to every young man in Weldon is: When she goes 10 pumping you about life insurance, look out' They say auto production will jump 50 per cent, in 1924. And we suppose pedestrians will have to jump in proportion. Maybe the reason some Weldon people haven't discovered the se cret of success is because it’s hid den in the sweat glands. The average Weldon man is just about the difference between what his wife tells other women he is and what she tells him he is. They used to say the Lord took care of the fools and drunks, but that was before the fools and drunks were trying to run motor cars. A Vermont man says he has dis covered a way to tell a good egg from a bad egg. All right. But we’ll stiil depend on our nose. Who can recall when about all we had to watch out for on the streets of Weldon were runaway | horses and careless bicycle riders’ One thing some of our motorists never seem to learn until it's too late, and that is that gasoline vapors are always ready to meet a lighted match half way. Any Weldon woman who has been married a couple of years can tell you there are two sides to every question—the right side and . the side her husband takes. Possibly if that New York church that has introduced barefoot danc ing would try out a hide stud poker at prayer meeting it could still further increase its attendance. We overheard a Weldon man say yesterday that there two things he’d like to have—one of the crisp rolls his mother used to tnaKe and the crisp roll his father used to carry. Nothing’s Impossible. But did you ever try to strike a match on a cake of soap2 RECEPTION. Miss Julia Turner Enter tains in Honor of Mrs. Stephenson. ()m I ii • .lay afternoon trom J to 5, Miss Julia Bryan Turner enter ! tamed at a lovely tea in honor ol j Mr-. William 1 urnerStephenson,a recent bride.

Little Miss Genevieve Gregory and Master Thomas Gregory then showed the guests to the register I which was presided over by Miss | Lizzie FI ale and Miss Ruth Han ! cock. The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Stephenson are delighted to j know that they will make their i future home in Weldon. NEW BUILDINO NOW OCCU PIED. After several years of anxious and eager waiting, Weldon has at last realized that she Iijs a new high school building. The high school moved in Tuesday at noon and the pupils as well a teachers are enjoying the new building and its furniture. The desks are very pretty and durable. The auditorium chairs are beautiful and as substsnn. I as possibly could be. The light lixtures are in keeping with the building and the lurni ture. Hverything, part, and parcel unite to make it a handsome build ing hoih in the, interior and on the exterior—a school building that the town can well be proud of. HOY D-STEDMAN. A marriage of unusual interest to many Halifax county penple is that of Miss lilizebeiii Stedman, of Halifax, the 17-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. N. L. Stedman, to John T. Boyd, of l-ayetteville. The young couple quite unex pectedly eloped from Halifax and went to a friends home ..■ hair ,nont, where they were united in matrimony. The bride was one of the most prominent oi Halifax county s younger social set, and was well known throughout this section of the State. 1'he groom is a student of the University of North Carolina, and comes from a prominent Fayette ville family. New Bungalows. 1’he Carolina Building Compa ny has contracts to build two five room bungalows for Mr- D. B. Howell, m South Weldon. Let the good work go on.
