Base ball is a line sensation. Bat
are we fair to ourselves, "ouffamilies
and our town when we allow a sum
nier sport to retard a movement
which looks to the "upbuilding of the
entire tmmunity. , . -
On last Monday night in the
Court' Hourethe organization of the
Chamber of Commerce was perfected
by the election of the following
Officers: ,
J. R, Collie, President.
Dr F. McKinne, 1st. V-President.
T. W. Watson, 2nd. V-President.
C. T. Stokee, 3rd V-Preaident.
, Dr. A. H. Fleming, Secretary and
Treasurei.
The election of a Board of Direc
tors was deferred until tonight, and
it is the sincere hope of the offioers
elected that at the ringing of the
Court House bell tonight the citizens
of Louisburg' will come out and let's
all get together and go to wrk Jfor
the common good of the town. With
a long pull, a strong pull and a pull
all together, boys, we can double
our population, increase our holdings
and reduce taxes.
Graded School Opens
Supf. W. R: Mills informs us that
the Louisburg Graded Schools will
open on Tuesdav, August 31st., and
that the same force of teachers, who
taught last year will be with them
again this session. It is -important
that all children who intend entering
