AIRY MATTERS SURRY COUNRY HAPPENINGS The Postoffice Fight At At. Airy News Items of Interest. Eevryone you meet these days wants to know about the Post Office. A two thousand dollar job naturally attracts attention and the fact that it may change hands makes the politicians sit up and take notice. The Insi>ec tor was here last week and saw those parties had made affi davits about Mr. S. E. Marshall's character and other affidavits also were filled. The Inspector i remained several days and was out in the White Plains section where Mr. Marshall lived for several years. Mr. Joyce is wearing a confident smile and appears to not be the least fear fuUthat he will ever be put out of the job. Just what his hopes are based upon he.'is not saying further than he has violated no law or ruling of the Department that would jusify his removal. Mr. Marshall and his friends are as confident as can be that he is certain to be in possession of the offices within a few days. If one is to believe the reports about the finding of the Inspec tor there is reason for think ing that Mr. Marshall will get the peach. Reports says that some of the charges filed were based on transactions as long as sixteen years ago. They raked up a wagon trade long ago that was used to reflect upon the would-be post master. The In- ; spector said to have remarked , that he found Mr. Marshall to have the cleanest character of any man he had investigated for sixteen years, that being the time he has been in the employ of the Department as Inspector. He is said to have remarked that, there was nothing for him to do 1 after making a thorough investi gation of all the facts but to go to Washington and report that Mr Marshall should be confirmed. All of which the reader may be lieve or not just. as he pleases. Such is the street talk, and as such we give if. Little Richard McCargo, who' was so badly burned while play-: ing with matches about nine weeks ago, is slowly convalesc-1 ing and has been wheeled out in a carriage several evenings lately l but is not yet able to sit 1 up. Dr. Judson Vipperman. of j Spencer, N. 0. held a series oi" meetings with the pastor Rev. C. i C. Haymore, at the Rock church near this city last week. The I people who heard Mr. Vipper man were delighted with his clo- j fiuence and learning. He was reared in this section of the state and is rapidly taking rank with the ablest preachers of the state. Mr. J. M. Bennett now of Humansville, Mo. has been in the county a few days and left for his home Monday. Mr. Ben nett went to that state a year or more ago and came back to wind up some business. He sold his farm while here. He likes the wiest and will make it his home in the future, at least he thinks so now. His son-in-law, Mr. Elisha Creed and family return ed to the west with him. \ Because ef special rates on the railroad a number 5f the merchaht* of this city have gone to New York, Some went yn pleasure bent and many to buy goods for the fall trade. Among, those who left Tuesday we note j the following: Mr. E. H. Wrenn, j wife and sLucian, G. C. Welch. G. A. Holder of Round Peak, W. L. Jackson, S. M. Hale, J. D. Smith, C. E. Lundy, J. A. Yokley ahd wife, Charley Bow man and Alex Bowman. Why Not Sleep Outdoors? It seems strange that it took j people so long to learn the pleas ure and benefit of sleeping in the ' open air. Until very recent by sleeping porches were seldom seen. We shut ourselves up in stuffy rooms and sweltered dur ing the hot months, when by moving the beds a few feet into the open air we could sleep in comfort. The compaign of pub licity to educate people on the benefit of fresh air as a pre ventive and cure for consump tion led to the building of sleep ing porches, and now most houses in cities, except in congested sections, have some sort of sleep ing porches, and architects are incorporaeing such porches in planning good houses. The strange thing about this is that the movement should have start ed in the city rather than in the country. To be sure, it is cool er in the country, but to balance this, the sleeping rooms are smaller in the country, the houses are less open, and the ventilation poorer. The sleeping porch can be added to the farm home, there is no trouble to secure pri vacy, for the next house is not within 20 feet. All that is need ed is a roof, and last summer not even this was needed. We slept under the canopy of heaven, and there was not a nrght but a blanket was acceptable some time before morning. In sea sons when there is more moisture However, a roof is necessary to keep off showers and heavy dews. With a sleeping porch there is no occasion for an uncomforta ble night so far as heat is con « cerned: and after a summer's experience it will require more than mere freezing weather to; drive one into four walls.
