son from WIinston-Salem here
Saturday afternoon until a num
ber of plays were fumbled and
the visitors tied the score, but
in the tenth inning the locals
came through with a hitting at
tack that won the game all over
again.
Carmichael worked beautiful
ly on the mound and had allow
ed only two hits and one run
until the freakish seventh in
ning. when tour errors and one
hit accounted for three runs and
put the game on ice,
Although Carmichael had
pitched a wonderful game it was
necessary for him to retire in
favor of a pinch .hitter and Crook
came in from outfield to pitch
the remainder of the game, hold
ing the visitors to one hit and
no runs.
Thompson, first man up in the
ninth tor the home team, got
on base and reached third. The
squeeze play was on but failed
and the side was retired Brown
and Williamson went down in
order in the extra frame and
two were out for the locals when
Harrold hit and Troutman sin
gled just behind him. Osborne,
who helped put the game on Ice
by two fumbles in the seventh,
redeemed liimseH .beautifully
with a hot single that scored
Harrold and ended the game.
Thompson hurled well for the
visitors but .his team was not
able to garner hits to win a ball
game. No earned runs were
scored for Brown and William

Wflkes couirty should be proud
Women fully realize that bet
ter homes mean better morals, and
that nothing can so enrich the lives
of a family as a comfortable,
roomy and home-like home. At
tractive and convenient homes is
very likely to keep youngsters off
the streets. Little sister should be
allowed to have her room freshly
papered and painted, which will
inspire her to become dainty and
domestic. Rough and tumble boys
should have adequate space in
which to play. This can be accom-
pli.shed by transforming the attic
or basement into play rooms at
dxtremely low cost, yielding large
dividends.

Already a penalty of l*/2 per cent has been added
to unpaid Town taxes for the year 1934, and if
same are not paid on or before May 1st, 1935, the
penalty will increase to 2 per cent and will con
tinue to increase at the rate of one-half of one per
cent each month tliereafter until paid.
Taxes for the year 1984 are long past due; the
