OLD WELDON.
Things That Happened 33
Years Ago in Town
and Vicinity.
July 3, I889.-Mr. Sam Pier
son assumed the duties of the post
office at Enfield Monday, vice Mr.
Whitaker removed.
Grace Episcopal church at this
place will be consecrated to divine
worship next Sunday morning by
the Rt. Rev. Theodore B. Lyman,
Bishop of the diocese.
When it was announced that
General W. H. Anthony had ap
pointed Mr. W. W. Hall, of this
paper, upon his staff with the rank
of Major, a number of the friends
of Mr. Hall immediately contribu
ted a sum of money sufficient for
the purpose and presented him
with a handsome uniform. Deeds
of this kind are what make life
worth living and lend to strengthen
the ties of friendship which already
exist between the donors and the
donee.
Dr. P. S. Petway, a prominent
and highly esteemed physician of
Enfield, died suddenly at his home
in that place on Tuesday night of
last week, the 25th ult., of apo
plexy. He was stricken about
12:30 and passed calmly away
about one, being unconscious after
the stroke. Dr. Petway was a
practicing physician, was in the
5 1 st year of his age, and left a wife
and six children, to mourn his
death.
The announcement that Mr. W.
R. Harvey had been appointed
postmaster at this place was cor
rect, but it is reported now, that
First Assistant Postmaster General
Clari son informed Senator Ran
som tiiat as he claimed this as his
office, Mr. Evans, the present in
cumbent, would not be disturbed.
Mr. W. L. Stainback, who has
been running express messenger
on the route between Richmond
and Charleston, has been assigned
to the office here since his injury
in the late railroad accident. Mr.
G P. Phillips has been iransferied
from the office to the place former
ly held by Mr. Siainback.
BRANCH HOUSE.
Our friend, Mr. H. G. Rowe
has opened a branch undertaking
establishment at Jackson. The
Northampton Progress in speaking
of the new enterprise, says:
"Mr. H. G Rowe. of Weidon.
will open an establishment in Jack
son in the next lew days, but we
hope none of us will soon have to
patronize it. We rralize, of course,
that we'll need his services at some
time, yet we want to put it off as
long as possible. Mr. Rowe rec
ognizes this universal inclination
to avoid as long as possible the
patronizing of his establishment,
and when we told him that we
would announce the opening of it
this week he begged us not to so
licit any business for him. He
stated that orders for merchandise
in his line only came in the most
extreme and urgent cases, so he
very modesty retrains Irom boost
ing his wares. His l.u .iness is
that of undertaker and funeral di
rector. We humbly pray that we
will not soon need Mr. Rowe's
services, but he promises good
service in case we do."
PREVENTING TOOTH DECAY.
The grooves in the teeth are the
meeting places of the sections of
enamel that come together to form
the tooih. If the development of
the enamel is not quite perfect
when the tooth erupts, a very in
viting spot for decay is present.
Every tooth should be carefully
examined two or three times each
year, and if there are any faults in
development or any cavitie, ihey
should be attended to.
This is one method of prevent
ing decay of the teeth. The other
method is the careful brushing of
the teeth morning and night regu
larly.
The bacteria of tooth decay are
always waiting for an opportunity
to go to work. Whenever you
neglect your teeth, you give ihe
bacterja a chance and it is very
difficult 10 get rid of them..
Do your part by keeping your
teeth clean and by having the cav
ities in them filled.
NEW LICENSE.
The State law requires all cars
driven on the public highways to
have new licenses by July 1st
We merely call attention to this
fact for fear some of our readers
may overlook this important mai
ler m4 tfeaefcy gu into (rouble.
"BUTTERFLY LADY "
Tattooed Leg of Bather Disturbs
Peace In Wilson.
R. B. Evans writing to the News
and Observer from Wilson, says :
Atlantic City is famous for iis
miles of board walks, Coney Is
land for its numerous attractions,
Raleigh for its hard fighting and
persistent politicians, but for a real
attraction that never fails to attract
Wilson has the world beat, and
while this city is noted for its beau
tiful women there is one whose
form is as perfect as that of Venus
and whose smiles are enough to
cause bachelors in forsake t lie life
of single cussedness and worship
at her shrine.
Yes, this young creature is as
pretty as red shoes with blue strings
in them her dimpled cheeks as
soft as sunkist peaches, her eyes
scristillate like twinkling stars and
while these charms are enough to
cause all eyes to turn in her direc
tion and bring on an epidemic of
rubber necking ihis charmer has
one more attraction which is never
visible until she dons a bathing suit
and there is no duck or duckling
that ever disported on the placid
bosom of a mill pond that is hap
pier than she while playing with
speckled perch on the pebbly bot
tom in the old swimming hole.
This young beauty is known as
"The Butterfly Lady," from the
fact that midway between her knees
and hip on one of her lower ex
tremities is tattooed in India ink a
gorgeous butterfly in all the hues
of the rainbow, which shows plain
ly just below the hem of her ab
breviated water garb.
Many wives have put a ban on
their husbands attending either of
the bathing pools, saying they will
have no "slosh around" at home
in their own baihiubs until the
"Butterfly Lady" hides her beauty
spot.
Thousands of women and chil
dren patroliize (lie buttling pools
daily and they will be glad to know
that in the future "The Butterfly
Lady" will cease to flirt around
either of these popular resorts, for
the "charmer" has been requested
to remain away from both places
or wear long hoisery while doing
mermaid stunts.
FIRST COTTON BLOOMS
Mr. Lonnie T. Garner sent to
our office last Friday the firsTYot-
lon bloom of the season. This
bloom was plucked from his field
on June 28th, which is quite early
for this section, We can remem
ber the lime when it was a race
among the farmers to try to bring
in a bloom by the 4th of July, but
that was before the days of nitrate
of soda and other high grade fer
tilizers. Mr. Garner is one of our most
prosperous farmers and rarely
ever makes less than a 500 pound
bale to ihe acre.
We also received on July 4th, a
bloom from JAr. Calvin A. Dick
ens, of Halifax, which he claims
appeared on June 30th.
AFTER MANY YEARS.
Miss Mary Wilson, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Adolphirs Wilson
former residents of Weidon, but
now of Chattanooga, Tenn., is
visiting Miss Margaret Pierce on
Washington avenue. Miss Wilson
has been visiting relatives in Ox
ford and is on her way to Colum
bia University, New York, where
she will take a special summer
course.
We are glad to hear of the suc
cess of these good people, especial
ly Landis, who occupies a rcspon
sible position with the American
Fruit Company, and is travelling
in South America. From a child
Landis was of an attractive person
ality and we wish him well.
THE CROPS.
The crops in this county and
parts of Northamptonlthat we have
seen, are indeed very fine.
The cotton has been well worked,
clear of grass and in a fine growing
condition. The plants are begin
ning to fruit early and we can al
most certainly look for a full July
crop, unless something happens
from now on. The corn crop is
better than it has been for years.
The peanut crop is also prom
ising. The plants, in some places,
are small, but are green and in a
fine growing condition.
These are said to be hard times
for journalists. Newspaper men,
however, seem to be getting along
as veil as ever.

CALLED OFF.
The patriotic meeting at the park
on Monday evening could not be
held on account of the violent elec
tric and rain storm which lasted
several hours. The committee
regrets very much, as all arrange
ments had been made; the speaker
present and had it not been for the
storm, this would no doubt have
been an enjoyable occasion. The
ladies wish to thank very much
Mr. Hunt Parker, of Enfield, and
all who assisted them in any way.
DROWNED IN CANAL.
Drowned in the Roanoke Rapids
canal at Roanoke Rapids, on Sun
day last, Edward Pierson, colored,
aged about 20 years. It seems
that Pierson was taking a bath
in the canal and made a high
dive, his head being caught under
a large rock, which caused his
death in a short while. Search
was at once made for his body, but
it was not recovered in about five
hours. Coroner Rowe was sent
for and viewed the body, but deem
ed an inquest unnecessary.
YOUNOEST IN STATE.
Our young friend, Mr. H. G.
Rowe, Jr., last week received his
credentials as an embalmer from
the State Board which met at Ashe
ville. He is doubtless the young
est embalmer in North Caro
lina, having reached his majority
a Few days before the arrival of his
icense. He is associated with his
father, Mr. H. G. Rowe, of this
place.
THESWIMMIN1 POOL.
The swimming pool up Chocka-
yone creek is indeed a popular
place during these hot July days,
The water is cool and clear, with
a nice sand botton, clear of rocks
and deep enough to swim, for
those who know how and shallow
enough for thoss who merely want
to go in, just loo cool off. Go up
the Chockayotte and take a plunge.
SUDDEN STORM.
On last" Thursday there' was a
match game of ball between Wei
don and Norlina to be played here.
Just as the gam: started, a thunder
storm came up and put an end to
the fun. A great many of the
spectators were thoroughly drench
ed belore tley could reach shelter,
so sudden was the storm.
PLAIN TALK.
The Statesville Landmark says:
"There are some things that
need to be materially changed in
North Carolina, for the good of
ihe State and the Democratic party
as well. Some plain talk is nec
essary and we had as well have it
now as later. Let the talk pro
ceed." In your struggle to make more
money or to achieve greater sue
cess in any other direction, are
you making full use of the great
force that can be generated by that
dynamo, your brain?
"Preachers Denounce Law
breakers," declares a headline.
Well, you wouldn't expect him to
endorse them, would you?
IMPORTANT MEETING,
There will be an im
portant meeting of the
Chamber of Commerce on
Wednesday evening, July
5th, at the Town Mall,
at 8:30 P. M. The cotton
storage warehouse plan
will be fully discussed
and all the citizens of
the town are urgently
requested to be present,
as the building of this
large ware house here
means much to all our
people.
