Texas, a native of this county, spends hours looking for some of his old comrades who fought with him durlne the war in Co. H, 15th N. C. regiment, or the "Monroe Litht Infantry." One or his comrades, Ksq. V. G. Long, of Goose Creek township. Is determined that Mr. Coon will not have to look very long for the few remaining mem bers of his old company at Houston, Texas, where the reunion will be held this year. Mr. Long wrote Mr. Coon last week telling him that he would be at Houston, and where he could be found. Mr. Long and Mr. Coon fought side by side during the war, and a friendship grew up between them In those dark days that has lasted all of these years. They were together at the bat'le of Lee's farm, Seven Days. Siuth Mountain, Sharp bttrg, Fredericksburg, and at tin time of the surrender their regimen! was among the crack "outfits" held areund Richmond for the defense .f the Confederate capital.'

The Ford Sedan with electric starting and lighting system and demountable rims with 3! i inch tires all around, is the ideal family car because of its all-around utility and refined and comfortable equipment. Finely upholstered. Plate glass windows. An open car in the Spring, Summer, and early Fall. A closed car in inclement weather and Winter. For theatre parties, for social visiting, for touring, and for taking the children to school, it is just what you want. The low cost of operation and mainten ance is not the least of its charms. A regular Ford car, simple in design, strong in con struction, and durable in service. Won't you come in and look it over? The comforts of an electric car just what you want. DEALER.
