That Daniel .Boone, famed Ken tucky hunter, made an expedition into Wayne and Lincoln county dur ing his career is the belief of a party or mm oer jacks who recently discov ered the name "D.

The forms of the letters are said to correspond with the name of Boone which is found carved in the rocks of Kentucky.

Welfare Work- - As an instance of .the' far reaching' importance of welfare work, we clip' the following from ; the Henderson Daily Dispatch: "Mrs. W. B: Wad dill, welfare superintendent for the county, is looking for a home for a young girl of about . 15 years of age, who wishes a place to work and. to. attend school, in the city. The young number of Oxford's citizens who suf- woman has been living here for quite fer annually from that sneezing dis- a while, but her mother recently died,' ease are now in the midst of ' all its an( an opportunity is now sought horrors. It is impossible to estimate for the advantage of an education, as the number of people in Oxford who well as to be of service in thehome are suffering from the hay fever of a good family. ' Persons interested malady, owing to the fact that it is are asked to "communicate with Mrs. not classed as a contagious disease j WaddillaToncfe. r Parish The Weekly Ambon Of St. Stephen's FOURTEENTH SUNDAY AFTER TRINITY It has been recently said by a man both wise and well inform ed that the greatest menace to America to-day is that the people have stopped thinking about God. We Americans have lost the habit cf thinking and speaking about spiritual matters. Our con versation is no longer in heaven, but very much on earth, and we love to have it so. God help America if we do not get Him back into common life. 5 Another wise man says that the leading ortho dox person in the world to-day is his satanic majesty, the devil, but that does not mean that the devil is religious. Orthodoxy seems only an idle sentiment entitled in a dim sort of way to be called religious, and morals need more clothing. The unfortunate expression "His creed cannot be wrong whose life is in the right" deceives many. Just turn that saying end for end, and we get "His life cannot be right whose creed is in the wrong." A false measure will twist any life out of line. . ' f SUNDAY SERVICES Sunday School 9:45 a. m. Litany, sermon and Holy Eucharist 11 o'clock. Evening. Prayer 5:45 o'clock. tations.

The . Honor Goes To Durham Several issues ago it was stated in the Public Ledger that Mr. Willie Lee Currin had finished the installa tion of a Delco Light plant in the $75,000 home of a gentleman near Durham. Messrs. M. S. Mayes and J. H. Reynolds, the salesmen for Durham county were the ones to whom, the honor of this fine job was due. Nrth Granville Deer Mr. Thadeus Stillman, lep resent ing a Baltimore wholesale house, who was in Oxford this week, tells of a deer that jumped over his automobile .near Soudan, Va. "I was coming down the National Highway Wedi es day evening about sunset, r e said, when a large deer emerged from the woods and leaped clear over the car. I stopped the car and measured the distance from track to track and it was 29 1-2 feet." t $1335 f. o. b.

And the best indication of its real worth today, is to be found in the fact that, in the first six months of 1921, Stude baker' (with the exception of one manufacturer of a vell known and very low-priced car) produced and sold more cars than any other manufacturer in the country.
