AIRY Purchase Price Said To Be $12,000 —Will Take Possession About June Ist—Will Probably Erect Drying Plant On Property. The Farmers' Union of Surry county has made a deal in Mt. Airy which the News regards will mean much to the organization in this county. By the deal the union comes into possession of the warehouse owned by Messrs. John Banner and J. W. Lovill, and known as Central Ware house. It is the talk of the street that the purchase price was $12,000. The union comes into possession of the property at the close of the present tobac co season, or about June Ist. The property is considered very valuable and is a most de sirable location for any business. It is on one of the main streets leading to the depot and in the center of town. The lot fronts on Franklin street 142 feet and runs back 260 feet and extends from the rear to Willow street, fronting that street 65 feet. The warehouse is a well constructed building, eighty-four feet wide and two hundred feet long. On the rear of the lot is a three story house known as the leaf house that is forty feet wide and eighty feet long. It is the talk of the street that the drying plant will be erected on the west side of the building and the warehouse used either for a storage room or for a sales floor if the union should decide to conduct a warehouse. . . j THE PINNACLE HIGH SCHOOL I We are anxious that every per ison who is thinking about at tending school this year learn something of the advantages and opportunities offered by the Pin nacle High School. We offer the same opportunities as are offered by other State High Schools. Any student who lives in Stokes county, and can enter the eighth grade, may come without cost of tuition. You will not find your school expenses less at any scool than they will be here. Board and room rent, light, fuel, etc., furnished for SB.OO per month. It has been circulated through different parts of the county that students could not secure board in the town. This is a mistake. Students can secure board in private families near the school building, and there are several families who are anxious to take boarders. These houses are only a short distance from the school building. For those who wish to work for board, there are oppor tunities open to good, honest, hard-working boys. This offer is for a limited number only, at the present time. We have a large and commo dious building. conveniently arranged in every way. There is no other school building in Stokes county that is as large and so well equipped as the school building here. All the people are proud of their school building, and realize what a S-eat benefit the 'school is • to. e community. The good ladies of the town through the association for the betterment of public schools, have present ed to the school a nice piano, and also have purchased some new desks for the school. We wish to extend to them our many thanks for these valuable gifts to the school. If there is any information you wish in regard to school, we will gladly give you the desired information. Address.
