From this he told of the marvelous development and growth to the present a credit, not only to Albemarle, but to the piedmont section of the State. After he had spoken for some time on this subject, he Introduced to the Inree number present Rev. George- At kinson, of Monroe, who spoke for ne.ir half an hour-very Interecttingly on "The Present and Future Outlook of Albemarle Norton! and Collegiate in stitute.' He eulogized .In highest t rms the great work that Is lielng silently done by this school stating among other things that the great wonoer to mm was mat everv vear. far, the school had closed Its sesstons out of debt.

He looked over the clothing affered at $2.50 a suit and could sret none his slae for the price, lie finally fell on an old-time duster that struck above nis shoe tops and the price was $2 even. Then 35 cents went for wlr grass straw hat Fifteen cents re mained In his pocket.
