Poor Richard Expresses His
Views As To County Demon
stration Agent.
Seldom has the Editor ever
written an article that so many
farmers were ready to say Amen
to as the one last week headed "A
Misfit". It is a well known fact
that The Courier and Richard
were both anxiou-for a County
Demonstrator, for regardless of
what the farmers think of us we
want the farmers to prosper, and
Richard was hoping and believ
ing that a County Demonstrator
would be of great service in en
lightening the farmers, but like
Bro; Noell, I have been sadly dis
a ppdin ted from the fi rst. M r.
Brown.may be a good man and
one well capacitated to do some
thing, but most certainly he is not
giving satisfaction in tjie office
which he now holds. At Allens
ville on the 20th when the farm
ers had been called together by
'the State lecturers Mr. Brown us
ed up much valuable time in try
ing to lower the standard (of our
County paper, which is doing
more real good- to. the County
each week perhaps than Mr.
Brown would, do in a lifetime.
Just as The Courier says, we need
a young, man of our State and a
man who will visit the poor farm
er as we.ll as the one higher up.

The culmination of quite a ro
man tic courtship took place jm
Houston, Va., when Miss Dorothy
i Culver of Blanche, N. C. became
3 the bride of Mr. Will Morton, of
Milton. The young couple, accom-f
pahied by Miss Annie Daly Con
nally and Mr. . George Cunning
ham left Milton Monday morning,
presumably to go to the lake where
they were going on a picnic, but
instead, went to Houston, where
the marriage vows were said be
fore the Rev. Wallace G. Rrbble,
pastor of the Episcopal church at
that place. '
Immediately following the cere
mony, the young couple motored
to South Boston, from which place
they were said to be going to
Wrightsville Beach and' Wilming
ton to spend their honeymoon.
After August 10th Mr. and Mrs.
Morton will be at home at White
ville, N. C.
ROXBORO DEFEATS THE GIANTS.

..Umpire Harris did not call the

Tent Meeting At Helena.
The tent meeting at Helena
which has been in progress for
some time conducted by Revs. H.
M. North and J. J. Boone, have
been productive of much good.
We hear that community has not
been so stirred for many years,
and many have professed faith in
the Savioi. Two more eloquent,
able ministers rarely get together
in a meeting and any community
which has the privilege of hearing
either of them for that length of
time is fortunate indeed.
Revival at Clements
Baptist Church.
During the , past week Rev.
John Briggs conducted a revival
at Clements Baptist Church,
preaching twice daily. It was
our pleasure to be present one
day and we heard two of the fin
est sermons we have heard in a
long time. Mr. Briggs is a
preacherpf rare power, stirring
the soul and causing almost every
one under his power, to determine
to be better and lead a-more cor
rect' life,, living for- something
worth while.. On Friday he bap
tized several in the pool near the
church. '

that several professions were

irig good - at :f armjng r while the
and humLity, notknowihg which
way to turn .0 better his condi
tion is never given the least of at
tention by Mr. Brown. He is en
tirely too much on the run to be
worth much to the farmers of
Person County, and the sooner
the County Commissioners get a
young man and a better mixer the
sooner they will be relieving us
of a tax now imposed 1 which we
feel that we are getting very little
bene'fit from.
Sinca my last letter 1 have, been
trying out -. my new Ford, and
while she may not be the best
there is Pneedher in my bis, for
I find her a mclst excellent car and
Mr. Fox and the Crowell people
fair to deal with During this timel
I have been on a visit around
Hurdle Mills; the home of my
nativity, but like Rip Van Winkle
I find but few men or wrmen that
were there 40 years ago. Many
are dead while others have moved
away and given room to a more
progressive class of citizenship.
This place had 'but one store in
my boyhood days and only two
dwelling houses of any, note and
one mill, the whole business being
owned by Richmond and Coopers
It has since grown to' quite a little
village, with two large stores, dug
owned by R. L. Wilburn and the
other by A. M. Long & Son, also
an up to date roller Mill, owned
b&uncfo Mark Garrett. At this
