To the wuniuil who hasn't a cook it is at least a satisfaction to know that she is her own boss. True, women's clothes still cost a good deal. But then, just think what they have to show for it I Mr. and Mrs. D. H. Covington left for Richmond, last week, where they will in future reside. Mr. Jack Vaughan whohasbeen spending a few days with relatives here, left for Fork union Monday. Be sure to hear the patriotic pro gram of the Orphans' Class from Oxford Orphanage. It is inspir ing.

One ot life's inconsistencies a mouse is afraid of man, man is afraid of a woman, and woman is afraid of a mouse. The program of the Orphan Singing Class is calculated to make the hearts of all loyal citizens swell with love for their country. Mrs. Sam Chadwick and little daughter, of Washington, D. C, who have heen visiting Mrs. Geo. D. Hawks and Mrs. Alice B. Hud son, have returned home. An Illinois man recently lost a fine Holstein heifer and offered as a reward for its return one good drink of whiskey. The next day twelve heifers were brought in.

The Warrenton District Confer ence win convene in Ueldon on April 5th and will continue in ses sion three days. All the preachers and many lay delegates will be in attendance.

Mrs. P. A. Lewis announces her spring and summer opening on I uesday, March 22, and extends 1 cordial invitation to the ladies to be on hand. The whim of brims in the new spring hats are as fickle and as hard to follow as the moods of the fair wearers themselves. Now they're up with a bit of trimming poised penously on the brim. Now they're drooping de murly to shade eyes, and follow the line of the sweeping plume that brushes the shoulder. And sud daily there s a brim that tips up and dips down, without rhyme or reason, except that it's more charming that way. Remember the date March 22nd. SINOISO CLASS. The concert to be given in the Weldon Opera House by a class of children from the Oxford Or phanage should enlist the sympa thetic intereM and patronage of all our people. On former visits these children have shown them selves to be well-behaved and well trained, and the concert is always worthy of patronage. Don't forget the date March 24th. GREATLY IMPROVED. It is with pleasure we note the extensive improvements that have been carried out at the cemetery in the last few months. The com mittee appointed by the Civic Lea gue have certainly been "on the job" and with a little regular atten tion, the whole place can be kept in an attractive condition. The culling down the large trees and the surrounding undergrowth has been a special improvement and in our opinion the whole town is in debted to these good ladies for their earnest work. THK HOOK CLUB. Mrs W. T. Shaw very pleasant ly entertained the ladies of the Book Club at their regular meet ing on Tuesday, March the 8th.

MEMORIAM. Covington In sad but loving remembrance of our baby boy, Douglas Halbert, Jr., who died one year ago today, March 10th, 1920: There's a little mound in "Wood land, Where often we wonder and weep. There's a der vacant spot on our pillow, Where a sweet little face used to sleep. There were pretty brown eyes, but these slumber, In silence beneath the dark mould And the little pet lamb of our home, Has gone to the heavenly fold. By His Mother and Daddy. NOTICE. The Music Club will meet Friday afternoon at a quarter of four with Mrs. F. A. Cole. All members are requested to attend. Carolyn Rowe, Secretary. When misery is at hand there isn't much pleasure in remember ing former joys. Many a man's run-down reputa tion is due to his fondness for run ning up bills.
