ENJOYABIiJCCASION,
Miss Oavies Delivers A
Most Impressive Dis.
course-Children's Day.
The services at the Methodist
church on Sunday last were differ
ent from the usual lines and both
the morning and evening services
were specially enjoyable. Miss Daisy
Davies, of Atlanta, Ga , one of the
Board of Managers of the Mission
ary Department of the M. li,
Church, South, spoke at the morn
ing hour in the interest of the Cen
tenary movement, inaugurated
about four years ago, at which time
more than $50,000,000 was
pledged for the extension of the
mission work of the Church. About
this time Miss Davies had charge
of the Polish Relief which was
given in supplies and worked per
sonally at Newport News in ship
ping the vast amount of clothing
which was contributed by the
Church. She also served on a
commission which was sent to Po
land, Belgium and other places to
help in the relief and establish
missions among those war-ridden
people. Miss Davies is a forcelul
speaker and brought a stirring per
sonal message on the great need
of the full payment of all Centena
ry pledges so thai this and other
great work may not be curtailed.
The music at this hour was special
ly fine I he solo, "Calvary," by
Mrs Alice Hudson with organ and
violin obligjta accompaniment was
very much enjoyed. The congre
gation i-. iiiiktiied to Mr. F.li Bloom
for the violin accompaniment in
the music at e.icii service.
At the evening hour ihe young
people of the Sund iy school gave
a beautilul service which was much
enjoyed. Many beautiful chrysan
themums decorated the altar and
altogether this was a red lener day
in the church.
"BOB WHITE."
As the limning season approach
es, deaih aw. ins numbers of out
partridges unless the t inners call a
halt and issue a decree that these
friends nl theirs shall be protected.
It was recently pointed out to us
thit the partridge is an enemy ot
the boll weevil, and certainly if this
is so, hunters and larniers alike
will endeavor to protect these
birds. "Bob White" is not a bird
of passage. He does not migrate
from a colder to a warmer climate
in winter, but it not disturbed will
remain in the same vicinity lor
several years in succession. He
(Veils nnon berries and buds in
winter, and upon com, rye, seeds
of wild plains and insects in sum
mer. It is said that partridges
have been killed, and boll weevils
found in their craws. Being a
ground bird and feeding upon in
sects, this is not surprising, and
since the boll weevil lives through
the winter, it sounds reasonable
that the partridge could be of help
in destioying this pest. At any
rate one hunter at least avows his
purpose to refrain from the killing
this farmer's friend, and perhaps
others will join him in saving the
"Bob Whites. "-Smiihfield Her

LA HOE SWI-I-T POTATO.
Mr. S. Meyer, of Enfield, writes
the News and Observer that he
has a sweet potato weighing over
eleven pounds. He says:
'In your paper of October JOth
you stated in an article taken from
the Oxford Public Ledger thin
doubtless liie huvieal sweet potato
of this season was produced on
Mr. J. W. Wrenn's place, on Route
J, this season. Now this is a mis
take as 1 have a sweet potato ol
the Porto Rico kind, grown by Mr
Mills, and the potato can now be
seen in Meyer's Grocery Store
window. It weighs eleven pounds
and two ounces. How is that for
a potato?
BEYOND EXPECTATION.
The farmers throughout this
section have made more cotton
per acre than they anticipated.
Some of the farmers say they will
make as much if not more than
they did last year. The long dry
snHl of weather in August and Sep
tember, caused the top crop to
make. Some of the farmers are
making over a bale per acre and
that is as much as they ever ex-mc-wA
m make under the most fa
vorable circumstances. With cot
ton selling at 25 cents per
pound, ihe farmers throughout
this section are wdl off indeed,
TO PATRONS.
A; Macedonian Call
Assistance,
For
The superintendent has talked to
several patrons in regard to the
manner in which their children
study.
In the first place there are several
high school as well as grammar
school pupils that do not study at
all. How can they or their parents
expect them to get anything out ot
their work ?
Again, there is a class of pupils
that think they are studying when
they are doing one of two things:
First sitting with an open book and
still not studying merely having
the physical appearance of study
and not the menial. Second
showing their parents their assign
ment and depend upon them to do
their studying for them.
Third, and 1 am afraid the small
est class are those pupils who are
conscientious in their work and
won't let their parents or older
sisters or brothers do the work for
them.
Do not misunderstand me but
the point I am trying to make is
this: 1st, Please see that your
children really study at least two
hours at night. 2nd, Please do
not let the pupils lean upon you to
do their work, and third, use the
proper method of assisting them
explain and then see that they
work if they need any explana
tion. VC'e can't give pupils an educa
tion unless they will take tt for it
is a drawing out process nota pour-ing-in
process.
Please give us your hearty co
operation in gening the pupils to
study.
Pupils who will not study might
just as well be out of school and at
work. L
THE BOOK CLUB.
Mrs. X'. G. Suiter was hostess
to the Book Club on Tuesday,
Oct., .51 si, and Mrs. S. B. Pierce
presided. The responses to roll
call were, "Ihe most interesting
thing I know about China," given
by each one. Reports of commit
tees were heard and interesting
discussions held. These were fol
lowed by a paper on the social cus
toms of China by Mrs. S. P. John
ston and one on the social problems
by Mrs VC. L Scott, supplemented
by some pertinent facts by Mrs.
Pierce The decorations were
suggestive of the season and sou
venirs were Hallowe'en favors
bearing humorous quotations and
individual suggestions for the fu
ture of each one. A delicious salad
course with coflee and almonds
was served by the hostess' sisters,
Misses Virginia and limily Joyner,
of Garysbuig
DEATH OH MK HEPTINSTALL.
The following is taken from the
Littleton News Reporter :
"Mr. John O. Heptinstall, 77
years old, died at his home near
Littleton last Friday. He had been
for years prominent in the religious
and business life of this section
and numbered many persons
among his friends.
The remains were interred in
the family burying grounds follow
ing services by the Rev. N. M.
Wright and the Rev. William
Towe. Mr. Heptinstall was a
member of Tabor Methodist church
at Aurelian Springs.
Many floral offerings and the
presence of numerous friends were
silent tributes to the memory of a
loyal character, now gone to the
home eternal.

INDIAN SUMMER.
Spring with all its tender beauty
and promise has come and gone,
summer has followed with its full
grown llowers, heat and harvests,
and now we have with us again
the "melancholy days, the saddesi
of the year. Although sad, mere
is no season of the year so tender,
so beautiful, so weird, so unearth
ly, so fascinating as Indian Sum
mer. The forests are mantled in
crimson and gold, through the pur
pie haze that hangs over fields and
woods, like a veil over the face of
beauty partly concealing yet en
hancing its loveliness, the sun
pours down a soft dreamy light,
the air is balmy and caressing.
Just at this time it seems that
some invisible nana seizes me gai
loping sieeds of the seasons and
reins them in for a few days,
while earth, air and sky weave
around the weather beaten brow of
the year the golden crown of In
dian Summer. What a oy now
to be away from every one and
hold sweet communion with na
ture! MISSIONARY UNION.
The Missionary Union of the
Woman's Missionary Societies of
Halifax county, met in its quarter
ly meeting with the Society at
Roanoke Rapids church on I ues
day of last week. Special men
tion was made of papers read by
two Weldon ladies, which we copy
from the Herald :
One of the most interesting
features of the program was a pa
per, read by Miss Pearl Harris, of
Weldon, concerning our new mis
sionary fields. I his was such an
excellent paper that it was reques
ted by unanimous vote of the body
that it be published on the W. M
L'., page of the Biblical Recorder
Another helpful feature was a talk
by Mrs. W. li. Daniel upon bits of
history in missionary work in Hal
ifax county and the objects of the
present county organization."

How Not to Take Cold

colds, while others seldom, if evei.have

the carnival grounds. She was
taking a joy ride on the Ferris
wheel, and while her seat was at
the highest pitch, she attempted to
perform some stunts, losing her
balance, and falling head foremost
to the ground. But for striking
the seats in falling, she would have
met with her end, but as it was,
she only lost four teeth and was
considerably bruised.
