Neal’s hens must be lay ing about thirty golden eggs a day now, since we see him driving a brand new sporty looking Durant car. Like all men, it’s off with the old love and on with the new; so his first "choice, poor Lizzie, with her rattles and creaks and groans, is sent abroad to fare as she might among strangers. Miss Ora Wilson spent the week end in Greensboro. Mrs. W, E. Price has returned to Spartanburg, S. C., after several days visit with her mother.

Fannie Butler and Florence Cobbs went; down on Asphalt St., to pay Miss : Exa Johnson a call but to their sur prise they found she had moved to Leaksville Saturday.

Miss Maybud Ray is absent from tvork this morning for reasons un known, We hope she isn’t grieving over the peaches in California and the street cars in Winston for she will get a ride Easter.
