HALL, DRUGGIST, PHONE 72. Either Progress or Deterioration! There is no middle ground for the individual; the same ia true of the community. Well known and generally accepted as are these facts, still a handful of citizens by standing in the way of the common interests if not directly opposing them, virtually throw their influence in favor of a policy of de generation and do a grave Injustice, perhaps a positive injury to their fellow man. Again: The fact that an individual has come into possession of prop erty of taxable value carries the obligation so to administer it, that not alone he and his shall receive benefit, but that the whole social fabric shall be better served and participate also. If this be not so; then no man is his brother's keeper. The question before this communi ty today is whether the children of rich and poor alike shall enjoy a liberal education and equal oppor tunities to develop their best talents and highest ideals or shall a course be pursued that in a few generations will produce one class of white peo ple who will be ignorant and vicious and another, well-to-do," but with souls so shriveled that they would rattle in a mustard seed? Louis de Lacroix. Miss Mary Belle Gregory's Opening. Despite the inclemency of the weather Miss Gregory's Spring open ing held last Saturday was the most successful in her experience. The concensus of opinion among the ladies is that Miss Gregory made the largest and most complete display of the season. She had just returned from Northern markets and her stock was carefully selected from the most fashionable designs of the largest millinery houses. The walls of her store were decorated with flowers, laces, ribbons and silks, and that together with the large number of Pattern Hats made a most beauti ful and artistic effect. Noticable among the hats was one made of pink crushed roses, possibly the most, admired of the selection; then too a violet hat and leghorn trimmed with yellow roses, gold and chiffon easily found purchasers- It would be quite interesting and plea sant to the writer to describe in de tail the handsome designs, which were undoubtedly the most a La Mode, on Oxford's countersbut space forbids. She would suggest how ever that the ladies of the town and county should see Miss Gregory's stock before they make their selec tion. A word to the wise is suffi cient. A Customer. Remarkable Cures of Rheumatism. From the Vindicator, Rutherford ton, N. C The e litor of the Vindicator has had occa sion to test the efficacy of Chamberlain's Pain Balm twice with the most remarkable results in each case. First with rheuma tism in the shoulder from which he suffered excruciating pain for ten days, which was relieved with two app ications of Pain Balm rubbing the parts afflicted and realizing in stant benefit and entire relief in avery short time. Second, in rheumatism, in thigh joint almost prostrating him with severepain.which was relieved by two applications, rubbing wigh the liniment on retiring at night, and getting up tree from pain. For sale by J. G. Hall. Colorado's one woman legislator, Mrs. Evangeline Hearz, does not neglect house-keeping for lawmaking. She cooks well, dresses well and has a tidy home for her husband and two boys. Attention County Merchants. When in need of a good, absolutely safe Water White Oil call on the J. F.

GATHERED BY OUR REPORTERS. Short Items Dealing With the News of a Week. Read sale of land by C. T Crews Commissioner in another column. Nobody knows where a cyclone may blow. Hence an air of uncer tainty. We call attention to the adminis trators notice of J. G. Pittard In another column. A girl may know her own weight, she never knows how long she will have to wait for a proposal. The French class of the Francis Hilliard School are preparing to give a French play after Easter. The bridge across Hatchett's Run, Fishing Creek Township, was washed away Tuesday night. Anti-cigarette leagues are being started among the school children of the West. Long life to them. It is given out that the annual out put of pine for a year In North Caro lina is over 750,000,000 feet. A Connecticut man advertised for a wife, received 528 replies and accepted one of the applicants. Unfortunately, cyclones are troub les that the quicker they blow over the more harm is likely to be done. The great thing is to love, not to happy. Love is for both worlds. Perfect happiness is for the other only. In 1804 there were 20 communi cants in the Presbyterian church In the United States. In 1901there are 1,413,771. The furniture factory 4s - turning out new and handsome designs of furniture, which are meeting with ready sales. Ephriam was on the chicken path a few nights ago, and bagged about a dozen nice hens of Mr. Watson at the Hicks place. Mr. M. B. Hobgood sold a load of tobacco at the Johnson "Warehouse Tuesday and averaged $20. The best grade fetched $44. A witch hazel trust has been or ganized wTith a capital of three mil lions. An arnica monopoly will probably come in due time. There will be an Easter picnic at Bullock Mineral Springs, near Hester, and you are cordially invited to come and bring a full basket. The intercollegiate meeting will be held in Oxford at Horner Park on May 2nd. Davidson, Trinity and Wake Forest Colleges have entered the contest. Elliott, the bright and fair gem that glitters in the home of Col. H. G. Cooper, who has been quite sick for some days, we are gratified to learn is much better. The ice manufacturers of this state met at Goldsboro and form an association to "protect their in terests." Mr.CD.Osborn is a member of that cold combine. You may tell me says a writer that love is stronger than death than distruction than the world. You will soon see that It is not stronger than scandal. Mr. Gattis may as well get ready for a new trial. What the Tobacco Trust within the past two weeks has done for Mr. Gattis has been "a plenty." News & Observer. The editor deeply regrets to learn of the serious illness of two of his old friends In Dutchvllle Township, Messrs. W. H. Walker and J. L. Coley, and truly hope they will recover. Our father never lets us wander so far away that there is no road back; the road is long and hard, it will take nerve and courage to travel it, but it can be done thank God for that. Whether or not it is intended to stimulate still further negro emigra tion from this country, it Is said In Hawaii there is a berry that is quite as large and fully as tastefull as the watermelon. One of the best mixtures for soil is well regulated brains. Thefarmer who devotes as much time and- in telligence to his work as the men in other lines of business is bound to succeed. Charlotte News. There is not much work being done on the Cotton Factory now as brick has run short and the mill will not be fully completed for two months yet. The main building is about ready for the machinery. Mr. S. T. Dickerson, of Fishing Creek, was in town Friday and fahowpd the editor an old bill of money. It was for $90 and issued by South Carolina in 1779, and about half the size of a greenback bill. We failed to call attention last week to the advertisement of Dr. Arnold Frank, Veterinary Surgeon. Durham. The doctor has a fine rep utation In his profession, and when you need his services write to him at Durham. Everybody who can possibly do so should carry Life Insurance, and no better company can be found in the country than the Equitable of which Mr. Edward Cannady is agent in Ox ford n nd will take pleasure in writ ing you a policy at any time.

H.'Tillotson, Sr., happened to a serious accident, his horse kicked him on the leg, shiv ering the bone in two places. Dr. B. K. Hays was summoned and rendered valuable services, to the wounded man. Pleased to learn that Mr. Til lotson is doing nicely considering the severe break. The Work of The Lord. A revival meeting commenced at the Baptist church Sunday and Rev. J. S. Hardaway preached a very fine opening sermon. Rev. Samuel J. Porter, of Fayetteville, arrived Monday night and wili preach the balance of the week. We trust it will prove the grandest revival that Oxford has seen in years, t ' They Are Still Rolling. The Taylor-Cannady Buggies are in great demand by the local trade as Mr. Charley Bryan sold 12 in . four days last week. That's right keep the wheels rolling as Superintendent Behlin is equal to the demand, and Secretary Roller is made to smile on account of the great demand of the excellent buggies. Orders Pouring In. Last week proved a winner for the Oxford Furniture Factory as many large orders poured in, and a number of car loads of handsome and durable furniture were shipped. Of course Manager Joe Webb was quite happy and he did not forget to smile while Superintendent Houbold stepped around twice as quick as usual as he is a hustler from away back. Has Been Side-tracked for Repairs. Our most highly esteem Brother Manning, of the Henderson Gold Leaf, who has been on the sick list for a week or more, is able to be at his post, we are pleased to note. By the way Brother Manning, have you changed the day of publication of the Gold Leaf? For the past month it has not reached this ink den until Saturday. Sends Money out of Town to Get Puffed. Oxford has a write-up in the Balti more Sun for which, we suppose paid handsomely. The same write-up in the Public Ledger would have cost the town less money and would have accomplished more good. Of course it is none of our business where or how the people of the town spend their money, but this advice costs them nothing. Durham Herald. Big Fertilizer Company for the State. The Farmers' National Fertilizer Company,- which has just been incor porated, is expected to be one of the largest enterprises in this section of the State.

The millinery openings of the several firms occurred Saturday, and a large number of ladies were out even if it was cloudy. They streamed into the different establishments to see the charming display of fashionable hats which eclipsed all former open ings and evoked the most flattering compliments from the ladies. A large numler of them provided them selves with Easter hats. Indeed it was .a great day for the ladies and they enjoyed it. Rev. F. W.

Short Review of Citizens Who Have Earned Distinction-Men who Make a Town. COL. W. J. HICKS. The Oxford Orphan Asylum has commanded for the position of Su perintendent men of note in various departments of life. No one, how ever, wTho has filled the position, has combined more useful and substan tial qualities than Col. W. J. Hicks. Bringing to the duties of manage ment a great fund of knowledge of men and things gained . through a long and successful career; possessed of sound judgment and discretion in the conduct of affairs; blessed with a large heart and with power that comes through personal magnetism, he is admirably qualified and fitted for the duties of the office in question. His administration has seen the in stitution grow in greatness and use fulness, and his clear head and firm hand have made this progress possi ble. As a man, Colonel Hicks is a true representative of the "old school." His appearance is striking, his per sonality such as would give him dis tinction at any place. In bearing and address he is dignified .and gra cious, and his figure and head are those of a remarkably handsome man. PROF. F. P. HOBGOOD. One of the prides of Oxford, and for many years one of the prized jewels of the Baptist denomination of this State is the Oxford Seminary for Girls, presided over by the subject of this sketch. Poeta nascitur non fit. It is equally true that a great teacher is born with the necessary qualities that make him a success in his call ing. He should possess wisdom, firm ness, patience, gentleness, system, dis cretion,genuiue piety not cant schol arship and aptitude for imparting" instruction. Many of these qualities Prof. Hobgood inherited all he pos sesses In a marked degree. Hundreds of happy homes all over North Caro lina made so by cultured christian mothers, who received their training at this famous school, are living ad vertisements of his eminent fitness for the position he occupies. He is now in the prime of life, slightly past fifty, jovial, genial, affable, compan. ionable, and it is hoped with many years of usefulness before him. . DR. E. T. WHITE. Foremost in matters ol business, interested in all enterprises that pos sess merit, a leader in his church,and recognized as one ol the first citizens of the State, Dr. x. vvmte is a gentleman of large influence and great industry. In addition to being a large, property-holder in fact he is one of the largest in the county his friends and fellows have indicated their confidence in his sagacity and wisdom by choosing him to fill re sponsible positions in business and in politics and in the church. Dr. White was born in Granville, reared here, and, with the exception of the vears spent in obtaining his education has lived here all - his life. He has been, and is, at all times, readv and willing to co-operate In good causes and is, essentially a pub lie spirited citizen. The day is past when only profes sional men are public speakers of note. Such men as Senator Hanna and quite a number of other Sena tors and Representatives have de monstrated the fact that, when a man has something to say, he can say it and say It well, in spite of the lack of "long training in schools or habits of public speaking. Dr. White is another instance of the forcible and eloquent business-man orator. J. E. & W. I. HOWELL. The two gentlemen composing the firm of well known general merchants under the firm name of T. L. Howell & Bros, are among the most sub stantial and influential citizens of Oxford. For many years they have conducted a good business . and have attracted to themselves a large circle of friends and customers from both the town and country. The Messrs. Howell have well understood that conservative methods, in business as in legislation, are the surest to pro duce desirable results, and they have profited by this knowledge. These gentlemen have always manifested a lively interest in all public concerns and have given of their time and means to the serviceof the town. Directness is the term which best de scribes them both in their business and social natures. They are not men of "many words," but you will hear enough from them to know that, in any given instance, they are to be found on the right and safe side of the proposition. His intimate friends are constantly indicatiHg to the younger brother the fact the world is lull of charming maids sighing for his like, and that one who has proved himself such an admirable City father might be able to govern One to advantage.
