people of Oak Grove section are
about through shuckinfc corn
. -and report the best yields per
v acre in several years, due to the
fhet that quite a number of the
termers are farming under de
monstration plans, which has
been a great advantage
There is quite a lot of sisk
- ness in this community at pres
ent, most especially with the
Tittle folks.
The little infant of Mr. J. W. |
Westmoreland is very low at
present with pneumonia fever.
Also the infant of Mr. L. 0.
Spainhower, of King Route 1.

Sam Rierson, on King Route 2,
Saturday and Sunday.
The series of meetings, which
is being held at Mt. Olive by
j Brother Sheets, assisted by Rev,
Horner, of Greensboro, is still in
progress, and a great interest is j
being manifested in the meeting, j
The Oak Grove school is pro- j
pressing nicely under the man-;
agement of Mr. Ernest Iseley, j

•quently among the directors of j
* the Farmers Quick Step Tele-1
ghone Company, of holding their |
annual meeting in the near
future, to elect new officers and
to transact such business as may ]
come before the meeting. Very |
