He was badly, but not seri ously, hurt. -tp-Mr. and Mrs. Walter M- Ealiss have moved to the cottage on the lbt south of Mr. W. J. Nicks' store. The house has been repainted and fixed ' up. L>• —•Like many other communities in this State, as we gather frwra the papers, this ode has quite a number \ of cases of meantefj. It has been BO prevalent in a few communities that schools have suspendod for a week or two. ' —Germany's submarine warfare pfbgrain knocked the bottom out of the price of cotton, corn and wheat last week. .:-American* grit has steadied the market Bomewhat, but Ik the former prices have'not been re- Hfafljjjjjfd- of the fact that a dives down in the Hurtful to vegeta- of our gojd house keepers have looked with feelings of sadness upon the wilted plants which /they had so carefully nursed, now that thingß have thawed out. -Last Wednesday night in Bur ' lington the third of a series of basket ball games between the Burlington and Graham Highs was played.

Last Friday morning found some of the finny tribe framed in ice. Some of the possessors parted witlrtheir ' little treasures, thinking them dead.

As many as nine contestants enter ed, from whom the following were chosen, viz: Misses Zelma Horn-' v buckle and Myrtle Cooper for the affirmative-,- and Miss Enita Nicks and Mr. Thomas Cooper for the v negative. The query is; Resolved, That the Federal Government should own and operate the taiiroads. .The judges at the preliminary were Mrs. J. Dolph Lon)j, Miss Mamie Parker and Mr. J. S. Cook. r In the debate last year Miss Cooper was one of the .debaters in the final at Chapel Hill that brought the Aycock Cup to Grahairf. Misß Horn buckle and Mr. Thomas Cooper also bud prominent plates in the High School Debating Contest last year. With the ability and prestige of the Graham School debating team, Graham is hoping that the debaters chosen will do as well as they did last year 'and that the cup will re main here for another year and finally luake its home here. Frozen Water Pipes. / The winters here have been com-" /■""paratively mild for the past several winters and many had really forgot ten just how cold the weather would have to be before the water in tlje pipes would freeze to the damaging point. Many'have found out now, however. Where the pipes were not drained or well protected the water froze without exception. Soiqe fared worse than others. There are few homes here with water that did not have any trouble on account of freezing. Most of them will re member their experience of last Fri day and Saturday nights. The biggest damage to any one place, perhaps, was at Hayes Drug Store. A water pipe goes up to the —'Lodge room on the 3rd floor. This iroze and buret and turned the capacity of the pipe loose. The pt . per and plastering were soaked from the' ceiling and things wet up gen erally in the prescription depart ment, causing damage of around •100. Since the freeze the plumbers have had a busy time. Jurors For March Term.

" J. J. HENDERSON, Commissioner Added Evidence of American Pros perity. Every day brings evidence that the Amer.can public are witling to pay for the things the people really want. For many months newspaper and' magazine publishers /have been hard pressed because of the,tre mendous increase in the price of white paper. In many cities one cent papers have raised their price to two cents without any appre ciable falling off of circulation, but the most striking example of the public's willingness to pay an in creased price for a better prouuct occurred last month when the pub lishers of Cosmopolitan, America's Creates Magazine, determined that, Instead of cutting the auality of the magazine, they would print an even better magazine and Increase the price. Over a million |eople have been buying the Cosmopolitan for many years at 15c a copy, and, With the greatly Improved February issue more people paid U9c for Cosmo politan than had ever in Its history purchased the magazine at 15c. How sucii a magazine can ut produced, sold for 20c and pay a firofit to the -producer is a modern ndustrid problem, especially when the editor has among his writers Gouverneur Morris, Robert W Chambers, John Oalsworthy, Jack. London, Edith Wharton, Owen Johnson, Elisabeth Robins, Amelie Rives and Elinor Olyn. The maga zine |s profusely illustrated by the greatest modem artists, and Its tre mendous sale is only 'an added proof of the American public's ap preciation of a quality product at any price.
