Shader and Mr. and Mrs Fred D. Kenyon of Karo, Mich., are spending the winter in Hickory, they having come here to escape the rigors of the northern climate and to spend a few months for pleasure and health. Mr. Shader said they were weil pleased with Hickory and liked the climate much better than they did at a more advertised resort in the state. They expect to remain here until about the first of May, when spring will open in Michigan. o With Mrs. Abernethy iMrs. F. A.

Wu Thornton Cline, a noted Confederate soldier of I the county, has been suffering severe- TThe following George Cochran spec ian from Newton will be of interest here: ( A writer of early Catawba county history in a local paper recounts the story of the celebrated "great rifle" of Henry Wfleidner, now spelled "Whitener," telling how in the hands of the pioneer's son, Daniel W.eidner, it killed ''Scotch Ferguson, thus aven ging the death of Daniel's brother, Abram which had just occurred as the patriots made their way steadily up the mountain sides. IHenry Weidner was the first white man to enter this part of North Caro lina. He settled on the South Fork river which runs through the county, and was- the progenitor of a large number of Catawba people living now in the county elsewhere in the state and in other states. His "great rifle" cut a big figure in Indian fights and was much respected. It helped to clear the wilderness and to make his tory, but its greatest achievement was the bringing "down Ferguson at King's Mountain, which turned the tide of battle and helped to win for America a pivotal fight, after which the cause of American independence went forward with accelerated speed. The writer mentioned says that the old frontiersman gave his marvelous firearm to his biggest and strongest son, Daniel, and bade him go forth to fight for American liberty.

All that exists as comtmon proper ty are certain acknowledged princi ples of morality, industry and character-building which successfull ar chitects of late must use. It is dif ficult to understand the limitations of our fellow men. How often are we considered dull and stupid! The brilliant man in college, on the other hand, is not always the success ful one afterwards. A erreat many men on graduation from college and receiving their di plomas seem to be under the impres sion that the world owes them a liv- D ing and expect to step immediately into comfortable berths. The only real failure lies in failing to make the best of one's opportu nity, whatever they may be. Dan ville (111.) Press.
