SDPTBMBSR It, 1048 BROADWAY ROUTE 1 NEWS (By Mrs. W- B- Johnson) It was a pleasant visit this writer had with the members of the Wo man’s Auxiliary at Flat Branch Church last Sunday. Tho purpose of the visit was to complete plans for the Group Conference which will be held there on October 10. Learning a long lime ago to bo on time at a meeting we staTled out rather early which gave us plenty of time for ob servations along tho road and at tho church. The first thing to Impress us on the way was tho black cotton patches around the home of Mr. John Moore which tolls us that cot ton picking has really begun In that .section and we know that fall' 1b lust around tho corner. Arriving at tlio church our first Impression was that wo were as near homo as we ' could possibly bo as far as the ap pearance of the church Is concerned as it looks for all the world like our own Mt. Plsgah church. Later when speaking to Mrs. J, A. Marsh about the resemblance she informed me that they modeled the Sunday school rooms after Mt. Plsgah's and this certainly was news to mo and it could LYRIC COOL iwmi COOL THEATRE—LILLINGTON, N. C. SHOW HOURS; Mon. - Through - Fri. At 7 & 9 P. M. Saturday 1 ;00 - 11 ;30 P. M.

Plagah folks. With at least thirty minutes of time before the scheduled meeting which was to be at 3 p, m. 1 took'a stroll out to tho cemetery and by observa tion It yfM easy for me to tell that many of the families in this section are Scotch, tho Mac's predominating,', ' those being McCormick," McArtan, McDonald and McLean. I know you Barbecue folks will be surprised (o learn that.I, did not know the date of you; ^ afternoon preaching service so (hat I could give this information to some nice young ladles of Flat Branch so that they may attend the service, but you can rest assured that I lost no time finding out when I came home. (This was where a newspaper came to my rescue.) And I am doing as they asked me to do, namely, put it in this column (oh yes they road it.) Girls, Annie, Martha and Estelle, services at Barbecue are as foliowt: Second Sunday morning at 11 a. m. and Fourth Sunday afternoon at 3 p. m. (If I happen to be wrong la this ri! have the wrath of preacher 'Biddle and the whole Barbecue con- grcKatlon on me.) The newspaper where 1 got my Information about this is The Sanford Herald and un less the time has been changed since the announcement was published It Is correct. Wo expected to see the court house in Lllllngton packed and Jammed last Saturday afternoon to hear the Phillips murder trial but such was not the case and we are wondering ' why. Is it because folks have lost interest in murder trials? I romem- bor when you could hardly find a seat when a man was on trial for his life. There wore plenty of seats to spare as the state sent witness after witness to the stand In an effort to convince the 13 man jury that Charlie Phillips killed his wife at their home near Angler on August 18i, Phillips heard himself branded as a wife beater, a killer and a bigamist without visible emotion but when his daughter Marie, six years old took the stand to tell of hi.s cruelty to hor mother and his Ihreatenlng on more than one occa sion to kill hor, he showed signs of nervousness. It was one of the most dinmatlc moments of the 'trial and you could have hoard a pin drop as all spectators craned their necks for a view of the young witness 'and Ilaioned attentively so as not to miss a word of hor testimony. All the ovideuce is circumstantial. There wore no eye witnesses to the alleged murder. We regret very much tho Illness of our good friend Mrs, Mamie Dick ons at her home on this route. Ac cording to her husband her condi tion remains about the same. Wo wish for her an early recovery. Sunday was one of those days we can’t do anything about. Hot if you get what I moan. If you will pardon my telling this little incident as it has to do with the dauglfter Willie Blanch I will give you hor thought on the weather when she was very small. I don’t, remember her exact age at the lime, but she must have been around five or six because her father died when she was eight and it was sometlmo before his death. It was on a day like last Sunday whon she said to her Daddy "Daddy I believe 1 like cold woathor better than hot weather" Whon he asked her why, sho replied "When it's I cold you can wrap up and stay warm but when It’s hot there ain't nothing ' you can do about It." Today (Mon day) promises to bo another day you can’t do anything about and the weather report Just now on the radio ; tolls us there is no relief in sight for the next two days. All we can do ^ is grin and boar It, while you hay- , makers revel in this kind of weather to cut and cure your hay. I It should he an inducement to ah farmers to pay cash for their fertlll- I sera vi'hen by so doing they are given a refund by the fertilizer company ,of approximately 3 per cent. We aro not Buro that all companies are do ing this, but we do know that ‘ Smlth-Douglas Co. of Norfolk, Va'., I has been sending out refund checks I right along this summer. It's easy to understand why they can d,o this, for ' cash payments do not require book- , keeping, while time time orders do. Wo think It Is very generous of this company to give the farmers this refund. (And this Is not Intend ed to be free advertising, we are giving it to you because when a Fer tilizer Co. does a thing like this, It certainly is news, probably never published before.) How much do I got for this ad, Sidney?, Now, I am going to take off and hear some more evidence In the i murder trial. I Mr. and Mrs. Johnny Patterson and family and Mrs. Jack Patterson and EXorls Sloan went to Wrlghtsvlllo Beach last Friday.
