Editors Reporter :
I would be pleased to have
space in your paper for a few
remarks in regard to majidegs.
Yesterday I visited the farm
of Mr. T. Smith While there
I saw some fine pigs biting and
tearing up everything in naaeh.
They ware bittea by the same
dog that bit Mr. Smith's son,
Curtis, who is now in Raleigh
'beta* treated. It Is awful to
think of the expense caused by
worthless dog. r , { ;
.' We do not know what all wals
bitten by this dog, and the pOo-'
pie of fee** MtiW toe living in
dread of getting bit by. a dog, or
losing their stock, .-cows pod
Pig*.
Mr. Smith's eon writes that
there are new eases constantly
coming in. The number being
treated in Raleigh now is eleven.
One child just three years of
age, and we are told the treat
ment is very painful.

3 STORES ROBBED
MERCHANTS LOSE GOODS, ETC.
TUIVM Broke Into Stores At
Wstout Cove, Meaddwa tod
Denait Saturday Night—No Cloe
To Guilty Partiea.
Some time Saturday night the
stores of Messrs. Jacob Fulton,
at Walnut Core, J. Wm. More
field, at Meadows, and a merchant
at Dennis, whose name we are
unable to learn, were broken into
by thieves and from each store
a considerable quantity of goods
wore stolon. It is learned that
neither of the merchants were
able to tell just how much their
loos was, owing to the fact that
the thieves carried such a variety
of things. For instance, Mr.
MoreAeld missed part of a box of
tobacco, a pair of shoos, a pistol
and other items.
It is very probable that all of
the stores were broken into by
the same parties as it was all
done the same night and it is
only about 6or 7 miles between
the storss. No clue to the
guilty parties has been found at
this time.
Mr. Tfcoaaa Kotbrock Boras His
Pocket Book Cootsiois|
About $300.00.
WhDo%|eeping his store at
Walnut Cove Monday Mr.
Thomas Rothroek dropped his
pocket book and swept it out into
the trash pile. Jhe trash was
horned-end the pocket book and
contents with it In it was
$30.00 in money and about 92ft)
in checks. Mr. Rothroek of
course loses the money but will
secure duplicates for the checks.
Moral: Keep your money in
the bank. Tom Rothroek is a
depositor of the Bank of Stokes
County, but let this much ac
cumulate in his pocket, expect
ing to make a deposit soon.
Don't delay a day to put your
money in the bank. Procras
tination is dangerious. Pay by
check. If a check gets burnt,
the amount • can be recovered.
If currency burns, it is gone
forever—forever.
