Petition Now Being Circulated. Engineer Wetmore Will Make the Survey. Mr. II. H. Blackwelder, of No. 5 township, was here Tuesday. Mr. Blackwelder is circulating a petition to pet signer for draining Little Cold Y ater creek. The petition has b.-n drawn and a number have already signed. There is very little doubt but that the required 51 per , cent, of the landowners will sign; The pro posed district begins at the north line of Mr. R. W. Krimminger's farm and extends to the point where the creek enters Big Cold Water, a distance of about seven miles. . A preliminary survey will be made in a short time. Engineer Wetmore, who is now making a final survey of the Big Cold Water district, will be gin the survey as soon as he com pletes the work, he is now engaged in. The drainage work is progressing rapidly in Cabarrus now and the peo ple are realized what a profitable un dertaking it is to reclaim rich and fertile land at a small cost per acre. Work is now being done on the peti tion for the Buffalo district and it will probably take definite shape in a short time. This is one of the larg est and most important streams in the county and should be drained by al lmeans. The Big Cold Water district is a SI 1 DRAG lock.

Now in Fairly .' Good Condition, New Road Has Been Located, and It Is Time to Get Busy. Road Supervisor Query, of No. 1 township, has done gome effective road work with the split-log drag. For several miles on the Harrisbur,; road the drag has been ued and many of the rough places were made smooth. . The road i. r.ow in iair-y good condition, that is, it is about in as good condition as is possible to put it in unless it is graded and' either macadamized or built of sand clay. As has been frequently said in thi? paper on previous occasions, this is one of the most important roads in the county. It is the feeder to the prosperous farming sections to be local markeet for one of the most be found. Much of the territory is near the border of our neighboring county, Mecklenburg. The road from Charlotte leading to this section is one of the finest macadam highways in the State. The section is so situat ed that there is little difference as to which market to patronize, Charlotte or Concord. When they strike the big road en route to market it is then the choosing of the ways, the longer route overxari excellent road-to one and the shorter route over a' hilly road to anotier.. If any think the lomrer distance will off set. the bad road they -are sadly mistaken. 1, 7-. I 11 1 Uy every right 'Lonc&ci is enimea to this trade. It comes from the same county and from the same people. They prefer coming here to any other market and are vilhng to make an effort to get a good road. This road has been discussed and then discued again, two years being wasted in lo cating a -route. Now that the route has. been . located and jvood -weather has arrived it is time to get busy.

Petrea Carries Off Honors in Contest at Rock Hill. Mr. H. S. Petrea, a Cabarrus coun ty boy, who is attending Newberry College, won first honors in the an nual contest of the South Carolina intercollegiate Oratorical.. Associa tion held at Wmthrop College at Rock Hill last week. The institu tions represented include the Univer sity of South Carolina, Charleston College, Erskine College, Clemson College, Presbyterian College of South Carolina, Wofford . -College, urman University and Newberry College. ' The Columbia State has the-fol-lowing sketch of Mr. Petrel: Henry -Smith Petrea was born at Lvnchburr. Va., November 1, 18SS. His jvi rents soon afterwards moved in a manner that marked a fitting eloe to a most successful school year. The exercises were ojened by a chorus singing "Quilting Party," music being furnished by the Harm burg orchestra. Other numbers on the programme consisted of recita tions by James Alexander, Miss Mary Harris, William Harry, Miss Eumenes Alexander, Jno. Nesbit,Fred Lefler, Miss Willie Quay, Miss Mary Alexander; a dialogue by Hen Teeter and James Alexander; a piano duet by Misses Fannie Harris and Mary Alexander; piano solos by Miss Annie Lee Morrison and Miss Mary Harris; several selections by the male quar tet, composed of Messrs. Gourley, Alexander, Lefler and Lefler, and a play by the "Old Maids' Club' From little Billie Morrison, the youngest on the programme, who took part in the clever "Sunflower Drill," down to the meeting of the "Old Maids' Club," when such ques tions as wavs and means and meth- ods to induce Sam Black from per sisting in pursuing the life of a bach elor, and to enter into the blissful joys of wedded life were discussed, the programme was rendered in a most excellent manner. The male quartet was an exceedingly popular feature. Their rendition of "The Old Oakerr Bucket," i while leaning on an old time well with-the wind lass and old bucket was decidedly clever and catchv and brought" sever al encores. In the afternoon there was a ball sr'ame- between Harrisburg and a team from Concord. There is some doubt as to what to call the latter team. Some aid it was the Cincos but this was promptly denied. They certain ly did not play like Cincos, but per formed more like a bunch of cheroots or better still a collection of tobies. But, no matter about the name or from whence they came, Harrisburg save them a walloping all right, the final score being 6 to 1. The hitting of WilL Johnson, the pitching of Russell and the ejever catching of Lapsley featured for Harrisburg, while the way the boys from Concord "bit at Russell's high ball and their overabundance of errors stood owt prominent!'.
