There has been more or less scare of an epidemic ot fever in Oxford this summer, and every slight ailment of whatever kind has been charged up to typhoid fever. The truth is, the health conditions of Oxford has never been in better condition. Dr s n Booth, superintendent of health, states that there has been onlv one ens nf typhoid in our midst. This one case is a warning to everybody to be very cautious as to the sanitary conditions of their surroundings. It is the part of wisdom to clean up the premises and use disinfectant freelv in all the dangerous places. Whooping Cough Underrated. The Public Ledger is gratified to note that the death rate in North Car olina is on the decrease. Much earnest and systematic work is being done by the State Board of Health, and much praise is due the noble ladies through out the State who are aiding the Board in every way they can to minimize diseases. It was onlv last week that Mrs. A. H. Powell, chairman Health Department Woman s Civic Club of Oxford, acting in conjunction with the State Board of Health, sent out several hundred leaflets entitled the "Fly Catachism."The deadliness of whooping cough is now being agitated by State Board of Health. The public does not know, evidently, that this disease killed 15 times Jas many children as scarlet fever The number of people wno contract scarlet lever upon ex posure is 50 in every 100 and its death rate is 12-12 per cent. The exposure to whooping cough results in affliction of 91 to 100. It has a fatality of 10 per cent. Masonic Picnic. The Masons and their families of the Culbreth section held their annual pic nic at Tar River Academy last Thurs day. This annual feast is always largely attended. This is easily accounted for when it is understood that the good ladies who reside out in that land which "flows with milk and honev" begin some days ahead to plan for the event, and when the feast day arrives one naturally wonders how in the world they did it nothing has been left undone, and all one has to do is to enjoy a bountiful spread It has been said that things always taste bet ter at a Masonic picnic than anywhere else; be this as it may, there was little room for improvement in the one held at Tar River Academy this year. The entire section presented a holiday ap pearance everybody was at the pic nic, and several Oxford people "went out to get something to eat." Gen. B. S. Royster was peesent and delivered a well-timed speech on the good work being accomplished by the Farmers' Union, and took occasion to pay a glowing tribute to the Masonic fraternity. Mr. B K. Lassiter and Dr. E. B. Meadows and Mr. J. C. Howard followed General Royster with pleas ant remarks. The editors had a faithful represen tative in Mr A. P. Hobgood, who is never better pleased that when stand ing by a bountiful laden table of good things. Both young and old enioved the dav. Mr. John Mayes, of Stem, visited in this community last Sunday.

The total wages will make a neat little pay roll indeed, which will find its way to the channels of trade. The location of the plant in Oxford is the outcome of the knowledge and energy of Mr. Will Hundley, who was raised in Oxford and captured laurels abroad. When the company saw that they were compelled to enlarge their plant to meet the large and ever in creasing volumeof business.different lo cations were suggested as the best place to locate the branch, but at this juncture of the proceedings Mr. Hund ley, who left Oxford several years ago and now stands high in the councils of the company, arose and pointed out the many natural advantages Oxford had in store for the location of the plant. Mr. Hundley is a very pleasant young man. and possesses a wonder ful amount of energy and business tact, and the citizens of Oxford con gratulate him on the timely words spoken in behalf of his old home town. He is a high toned christian gentleman, and whatever enterprise his name is associated with is a guarantee that the surroundings are wholesome and pure. While the advertisement of the Golden Belt Company, which occurs on the second nage page of this paper, has the metalic sound of business it nevertheless points the way to good, clean, neat employment amid christ ianizing influences and healthy en vironment. Mr. Hundley assures the Public Ledger that the company is very careful in the selection of their help and that none but nice, refined, intellegent girls will be employed.
