Davis & Sons, of Martins ville, Open Market at Fairmont j This Week, and at Walnut Cove Later In the Season —Think Prices Will Be (iood. Walnut Coye, July 20.—At a recent meeting of the high school trustees only four of the teachers for the next term were elected. For the primary grades, Miss An na Reid, of Pilot Mountain, intermediate grades, Miss Mayme William, of Fairview, assistant i high school teacher, Miss Pearl I Seagraves, of Holly Springs, teacher of music, Miss Minnie Joyce, of Stoneville. No princi-i pal has yet been named but the j committee have under considera-i tion applications from some of | the best men in the State and will elect one of these within a few days. The school will prob ably open about Oct. 10. An enjoyable and profitable re freshment party was tendered at the New warehouse Wednesday evening under the auspices of the ladies of the M. E. church for the purpose of making im provements in the interior of the parsonage. A large crowd was present and a neat little sum was realized from the sale of ice cream, sherbert and other delica cies. Mr. J. C. Hutcherson left last week with his family for Tabor where he will conduct a ware house until about Oct 1 when he will return here to assume charge of the New warehouse. The bond election to be held Aug. 10 when a $2,000 bond issue will be carried or rejected is the subject of very little interest. It would be difficult to predict eith er the success or failure of the proposition at this time although a great many voters have already registered. Many taxpayers will be unable to vote owing to the fact that they failed to pay their poll taxes. Messrs. E. J. Davis & Sons, of Martinsville, Va., who will con duct the warehouse this year were in town a short while Thurs day enroute to Fairmont where they will open a warehouse this week. These gentlemen who are well versed in the tobacco business are confident that the prices will start off well and while the high prices of 1013 can hard ly be expected they are sure the prices will be up to last year's average.

Jno. G. Fulton, Carl Joyce, J. R. Snyder, Watson Joyce and C. E. Davis made a business trip to Charlotte Friday.
