H.-Cville Local Xe. Corresi-ondence of The Journal. Hogville. X. C August S Dame Mithewsla says he has noticed aH b life. and he's pretty old, that just tump or a quid of chewiug gum pets readv to leave for the scene one of the fellows invariably appears with a Ions face and says he'll have to back out , The rest master sas one a cigar Itump or a quid of chewing pun sets UBder your foot lis harder to get sfd Ct ttan a, friendly cat. Yam Barlow reuorts that he was attacked by a sorrel iu Bear Ford woods ihe other ily. but Yam is such a liar no one knows whether to be-liev- it or not. AUe Oitniet says after all. WilUe is al-out as good a name as you cau find for a boy. Every girl could have married lone ago if she had wanted to. The weather of the day nearly al was changes at the noon hour. If it is cloudy durini: the morning it will probably set in to raining at noon or flse clear off. Miss Geranium Allsop entertained a few of her friends this week in houor of her birthday. Copies of th Uulies Birthday Almanac were haml ed around as souvenirs. While digging sweet potatoes Thursdav morning Bill Hellwanger unearthed a jug of lickor that had lH-en buried evidently for several months. Hhe find attracted a great deal of attention. The whisky was claimed bv lan Hock, who says he buried it the day he reformed and in tended to let it stay until he went to drinking again. Ice should be kept in a cool place. Miss Lydia E. Teck has pulled off i,fr sold band ring, as it is not stylish for the ladies to wear much this sum mer. Women and girls wearing thin skins will make the display more complete if they will also wear an electric light. An Increased attendance is expect ed at the Bear Ford church next Sun day as the preacher is going to try out a new sermon. Zero l'eck said he expected to hear that Germany would want to borrow money as soon cs the war was over. He says she has been boring with too big an auger for the past few years. ; Hen Kildew says a crow is very particular about the sort of clothea a person wears, as you will notice by the way it steers clear of the scare crow in field. A man from the Bear Ford neigh borhood was in Hosville the other dav and tried to sell the Tostmasier a ioad of wood to use next winter. That gentleman should sit down somewhere and take a good long rest as he is living entirely too far in advance. vimi'K Til roXTRACTOUS STATE IIK.HWAY roXSTKl'lTlOtf I XlOX CtH'XTV. .V t .
