He consulted the paper and promptly chanted off: "Rain, hail, snow, thunder, Jightning and floods." a r?TA n i n iV-MO I Vnln JiV For Infants and Children In Us For Over 30Years ISAAC E. GREEN. A Sad Ending ol a Youth. Promising- On Saturday afternoon the 4th inst., an accident occurred at Wel don that has cast a gloom over and saddened the whole community. The two boys, the sons of men who have been and are widely known, Isaac E. Green, the son of that beloved physician, the late Dr. Isaac E. Green, and his friend, Walter E. Daniel, Jr., the son of Mr. Waller E. Daniel, were over turned in a canoe in Roanoke river near the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad bridge. They were thrown in the ice cold waters of the river which had become great ly swollen by reason of the melting snows. Both clung to the boat forsome- ii'iie, and when it was about titty yards from the Northampton side of the river young Daniel succeed ed in swimming to the bank. Isaac told him to walk on down the bank that he would catch a tree. It is supposed that he was trying to save his canoe. This was the last time that the friends spoke to each other. The one reached the bank by swimming Irom tree to tree, and went on down the bank ex pecting his friend to either join him, or seek a place of safety in a tree. Isaac reached a tree, and spoke to two small boys who were on or new the bridge, Frank Cole and Arthur House, telling them to go to Weldon and get help and a boat. Young Daniel then went to a house of a col ored man on the hill near the river, expecting Isaac to come at any moment. It required such a long time to go to Weldon that it was supposed that Isaac must have be come benumbed by the cold and slipped back into the water. When found by those who had come to rescue him his sweater had be come entangled in a raft and nearly his whole body was submerged. Drs. Morehead and Suiter worked untiringly and heroically in an at tempt to resuscitate him for more than two hours, but it was of no avail. It is understood that life was extinct when his body was first taken from the water. The entire community is overwhelmed with grief over the tragic ending of the promising life of this' boy and it is a personal sorrow to every one. He had just turned sixteen years of age, was a junior in the high school, and was the hope of a widowed mother. He bore the name of an honored father who was beloved for a generation more than any other man in this section, aqd with an attractive personality and an alert mind, his future was full of promise. These providences are hard to understand and all should bow in submission to this sad dispensation. It should serve to draw us as a community closer in ties of love and helpfuluess, and he will not have died in vain. Besides his mother, who was Miss Margaret Brickell, of this county, he leaves a number of brothers and sisters to mourn his death. These are Mr. George C Green, the well known lawyer, Miss Mary Long Green, Mrs. Wil lie G. Cohen, Mrs. L. W. Mur phrey, and the younger brothers and sister, John, Shepherd and Grace, of Weldon, Mrs. Bessie Fountain, of Lakeland, Fla,, Mr, DeLeon F. Green, of Parkersburg, W. Va., and Mrs. N. C. Huehes, Jr., of Laurens, S. C. The sym pathy ol a multitude ol mends go out to these who are so badly be reft. Owing to the immense crowd of sympathizing friends in attendance the f uncial took place fruin ll M. E. Church, being conducted by Rev. Charles F. Westman as sisted by Rev. L. D. Hayman. The floral offerings were the orettiest ever before seen at a fu neral in Weldon. The following were the pall bearersl: Active Walter Sledge, Waller Daniel, Ellis Farber, Forest Rowe Earl Mountcastle, Jack Vauenan, Curps Gregory, Grainger Pierce, Char es Vincent, Brown Holoman Fenton Jones, Sterling Pierce, Frank Cole.

The new year is more than a month old now, but it is never too late to make good resolutions. One of the leading business houses of the country, in a circular letter to its customers on the first of Janua ary, suggested the following : "To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. "To make all your friends feel that there is something in them. "To talk of health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet. "To look on the sunny side of everything and try to make your opinion come true. "To think only of the best, to expect only the best. "To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own. "To forget the mistakes of the past and to press on to greater things in the future. To wear a cheerful countenance at all times to have a smile ready for every living creature you meet. "To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticise others. "To be loo large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble. "To proclaim this fact to the world in loud words, but in great deeds. "To live in faith that the world is on your side so long as you are true to the faith that is in you." This is a fine code, and we would all be belter off and happier if we would live by it. There can be no better time for making these reso lutions than now, but the impor tant thing is to keep the resolutions after we make them. SHOWER FOR BRIDE. Enfield. N. C.-On Tuesday af ternoon Mrs. Robert Kimball de- ightfully entertained a number of guests at her home at a shower in honor of Mrs. Raymond Andrew Bass nee Miss Bessie Eugenia Marshall, one of the season's brides. The guests were greeted at the door by the hostess and Mrs. Cecil Nichols, who ushered them into the dining room where delicious fruit punch was served. Misses Condrey and Dickens presided at the punch bowl. A centerpiece of Chinese embroidery and pink roses made the table very attractive, From there Mrs. Ira Wood led the guests to the living room, which was prenily decorated with blooming narcissus and potted plants. Music, song and toast were the main features. Mrs. Britt gave vocal selection and Mrs. Ben Bob bin was toast mistress. In the midst of the merriment little Misses Vernell and Elsie Kimball, as pink fairies, entered from the recepiion hall drawing a fairy wagon laMened with packages for the bride, on be ing opened they were found to contain many useful and beautiful gifts of linen, cut glass and silver which were verymuch admired. In the midst of the excitement of opening packages and the compli mentary remarks of those present, Mrs. Kimball and Mrs. Wood served a tempting salad course with coffee followed by mints. 0 ROUND HOO DAY. Thursday of last week was ground hog day, the time when the little animal was supposed to arouse from his slumbers, come out and squint his weather eye at his sur roundings. if he sees his shadow he immediately returns to his quar ters and we may know that we are to have six weeks of winter. But some say, if he fails to see his shadow before 12 o'clock, that the backbone of winter is broken! Th morning of the 2nd was dark an raiding, until about I o'clock, an then the sun came out, and the lit tie animal had ample opportunity to see) limself. Some people pin their fvih to the ground hog theo ry, while others take little or no stock in it. At any rate, we can all wait and watch the weather from now on. We are requested to announce that the next meeting of the D, R.. will take place Thursday, the 9th inst., at the residence of Mrs, W. A. Willcox, at Halifax. Full size Dimity Quilts were $3 now $1.75. Weldon Furniture Co. PERSONALS And Other Items Told Form. In Brlel One more winter month. The river is still on a bender. Money also coverth a multitude of sins. Even colored people can tell hite lies. If your duties worry you, dis charge them. A gentleman never has to pro claim that he is one. Mr. Geo. C. Green visited Wash ington, L). c, last week. You can press a divorce suit but you can seldom clean it. It is easy to find fault, says an exchange, and nobody wants it. If spring poets were hens, even editors could afford to eat eggs. When Adam got up in the morng it never took him long to dress. Let us hope there will not be an other snow, at least, this winter. We have seen many a black- haired man who was light-headed. When doctors disagree, the pa tient may get well or die in peace. Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Beck, of Louisburg, were in town this week. "Women painted in the middle ages, says a scientist, iney stilt do. Man, like a postage stamp, isn't worth much unless he sticks to his job. The road to Easy Street is paved with good resolutions faithfully kept. Mrs. Willie G. Cohen has re turned home from a visit to Lake land, Fla. Funny thing about happiness the more of it you give the more you have. A nickle no longer has to be chaperoned by a penny at the soft drink stand. Why drink bootlegger liquor? A pistol is ever so much cheaper, and quicker. The country used to be filled with old soaks; now it is filled with young suckers. It will not be long before the birds will be singing and the flow ers will be blooming. Those who say prohibition is not being enforced should read the wood alcohol death list. There is still plenty of time for luck to fall on the side of the man who predicted a hard winter. Mr. and Mrs. M. Freid and Master Harryiand Miss Isabel, are visiting relatives in Baltimore. An optimist, says an exchange, is the man who can make a mole hill out of a mountain of trouble, The report that women's skirts were to be shorter seems to have been just another newspaper yarn. Women as a rule are not pro fane, and yet a great many of them rip, tear and darn their husbanns old clothes. A ton of coal will never get to heaven, because it has been so often weighed in the balance and found wanting. "Why is a wife called her hus band's better half?" asks a corres- oondent. Because why, er be cause that is just what she is. An exchange says that in the cold storage plants of the country there are a million chickens all dressed up and no place to go. Every man in this country would be a millionaire if he would work with half the energy that his wife does when she starts out to catch a flea. Rev. and Mrs. R. G. Kendrick have been visiting relatives in town for the past few days. Mr. Ken drick occupied the pulpit of the Baptist church last Sunday Miss Emma Purnell who has held a position in the Register of Deed's olfice at Halifax, for the oast several years, has tendered her resignation and accepted a po sition with the weldon uca uota Works. ANOTHER SNOW. Our people were astonished on Tuesday morning, when they awoke from their slumbers and looked out to find the earth wrap ped in another snow When they retired the moon was shining beau tifully, and later it commenced to rain, which afterwards turned into a snow. This is the second snow of the season. THE MUSIC CLUB. The music club met with Mrs. W. L. Knight on Wednesday, January 18th, 1922. The music shower which was held in December, was reported by the president. Some of the victro la records to be used in the music memory contest were presented to the Graded school. The program committee elected for the next three months were: Mrs. W. L. Knight, Mrs. J. B. Zollicoffer and Mrs. Grady Lassi ter. The program for the afternoon was as follows : 1. American composers. Each member present read a short sketch of the life of a noted American composer. This was followed by a very interesting discussion of the lives of these composers. A short memory contest was then led by Mrs. L. C. Draper. 2. Melody in F-Rubinstein victrola. Dainty refreshments were served by the hostess. After spending a delightful after noon the club adjourned. BASKET BALL. The game of basket ball which was advertised to come off last Thursday between the High Schoo' boys of Weldon and Fork Union Military Academy, owing to the weather, was not played. The Fork Union boys went up to Roa noke Rapids Thusday night and played a game with the Roanoke Rupids Highs, which resulted in a victory for Fork Union by a score of 60 to 14. The Fork Union boys are a gentlemanly set of young fellows and we hope they enjoyed their stay while in Weldon. It was indeed gratifying to know that the best player in the bunch was a Weldon boy. CHANQED HANDS. The last issue of the Littleton News Reporter announces that the paper has been sold to W. Brodie Jones, of Warrenton, and that the paper will be edited by Mr. Ken K. Lyon, of Long Island, N. Y. We wish the new owners great success, still we shall miss the News-Reporter as edited by our good old friend, T. R. Walker, Brother Walker is indeed a fine writer and we read his editorials each week with a great deal of in terest. His style was peculiar unto himself. He never hesitated to call a spade a spade, if in his judgment, it was necessary to do so. ST. VALENTINE'S DAY. Next Tuesday is St. Valentine's Day. The custom of sending val ennnes on the 14th ot February has about been relegated to the innocuous desuetude, in days that are past and gone St. Valen tine's Day was eagerly looked for, and many sentimental and comic missive were often sent by love sick swains to their adored ones Times change and we change with them. CALOMEL SALIVATES AND LOOSENS TEETH The Very Next Dose of This Treacherous Drug May Start Trouble You know what calomel is. It's mercury; quicksilver. Calomel Is dangerous. It crashes into sour bile like dynamite cramping and sickening you. Calomel attacks the bones and should never be put into your system. If you feel bilious, headachy, constipated and all knocked out just go to your druggist and get bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone for a few cents which is a harmless vegetable substitute for dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful and if it doesn't start your liver and straighten you up better and quick er than nasty calomel and without making you sick, you just go back and get your money. Don't take calomal I It makes you sick the next day; it lofts you a day's work. Dodson's Liver Tone straightens you right up and you feel great. No salts necessary Give it to the children because it perfectly harmless and cannot salt vate. llUNfci iu luain Money to III loan on improved country and town property. Apply to Ashley B. Stainback, Attorney-at-Law, Weldon, N. Q. JUST FOR THE NIGHT. Just for the night the weeping may endure, Just for the night the darksome shadows fall, When morning dawns the light will come again, And shed its radiant beams o'er all. Just for the night the pathway seems so dark, No glimmering ray to show us where to go; But daylight comes, the Comforter is near, And guides us over ways we did not know. Just for the night life seems so full of gloom, And oft our pillow is bedewed with tears; But on the morn new joy will fill our hearts, ! And chase away the sadness and the fears. Just for the night we sigh and mourn and weep, And feel that life is more than we can bear; But when the gladsome sunshine brightens all, Our hearts rejoice in beauty everywhere. Just for the night; 0 weeping one look up; Earth's shadows soon will flee away, And joy will copie, and we will enter in, The glorious dawn of an eternal day.
