The bug made its first appearance in the .spring oats and destroyed 'the whole crop of oats. . " The town lights hare been discontinued for time indefinitely, much to the incon venience of that part of the public whose business or pleasure calls them out of doors after dark. Mr. John Griffln was the first farmeT to bare cotton blooms this summer. Fourth of July is considered the average time for cotton blooms, but this year they were plentiful the last week in county for 20,000 damages against the Seaboard Air Line Railroad for injuries alleged to have been sustained in a re cent wreck near Henderson. When asked If the present suit bad any bull-musket-drowning episodes ra it, he replied, with, a tinge of asperity, "So bull, sir, but when I came to after the wreck I found myself in close contact with a big buck negro who was wedged right alongside of me." The Major baa to go with his head wrapped in several thicknesses of swaddliagton cloths, and presents a pic ture of injured 'humanity that is truly pathetic There haa been aome ques tioning tnosg ths "court house crowd" which holds a daily parliament a to whether tha major is a resident of Guil ford; some contending that he is simply an all-round resident of North Carolina, but "it has been .definitely settled that there is a family of Watlingtons indige nous to Guilford soil, and the major Mr. Ilassell. the ne-wlT nnnnintArt n1-n. clpal of the Perquimans Academy, ar rived with his family yesterday and will occupy the house vacated by Mr. Liles, the former principal, -yrho is near Pet'ers- Dnrg, va engaged in market gardening.

After making -the as cent of Crowder mountain an elegant luncheon was spread at the foot of this well known peak and with the beautiful scenery which Is characteristic of this part of the country the occasion could but be one of much delight.
