REUNION OF ENOCH FAMILY (Continued from Page i ) counsel to his friends and neigh bors has proved to be of real worth. He was a member of the old Clinton Lodge of Masons, and since that lodge ceased to func tion, became a member of Cas well Lodge. He has for many years been truly regarded by the members of the craft as a just and upright Mason. This worthy couple have at tained the honored ages of 76 and 70 years, respectively, and both are in the possession of all of the faculties which go to make up a happy life. Sunday afternoon children, grandchildren and great-grand children came back to the ances tral home, and received the bless ings of the revered heads of this family. Under the shade of the maples at the noon hour all par took of a wonderful feast, and re newed the most happy contact. With the descendants came relatives and many of the friends and neighbors. In all more than 250 people took part in the day's happiness. The crowd begat! to gather at 8 o'clock, and until S o'clock in the afternoon the real joy of the reunion was felt. Some say that not in years has a more wonderful feast been spread, nor one partaken of with more evident relish. On the long table under the thick maple shade there was seen the abounding evi dence of real South Caswell hos pitality. The best cured boiled ham was given a place of honor amid the prodigality of fried chicken, mutton, beef and shoate, while a dessert to tempt the most exacting epicure gave an appetiz ing setting to the great dinner. It was about this long table that the ago guests feasted while alt the time the best of good eheer and friendly conversation prevail ed. Mr. and Mrs. Knoch yete the recipients of many ' congratula tions, and the wish was freely ex pressed that the future might hold in store for both of them a num ber of years of usefulness and nappmess.

OURGR BUYING POWER! M YOUR SAV!NG POWER South Main St. A AMWOA'MMOF /^yyyn/770N nney ^ DEPARTMENT STORES Burlington, N. C. OUR BUYING POWER ASSURES QUALITY GOODS! The average shopper has no difficulty in finding sufficient stores. But what she is vitally concerned with is the store that specializes in giving Value and Service 365 days in the year—a store every article from which reveals some intimation of honest, reliable, trustworthy business principle. She's sure of that kind of a Store here. And, she demonstrates her appreciation by patronizing liberally—and that, no doubt, is why the J. C. Penney Company's busi nessisgrowingso rapidly. It is not merely accidental that the business of this Store is increasing steadily. It is due to the fact that the sterling principle of Value-Giving upon which this business was founded still exists and has not been discarded. People know that their money goes farther at J. C. Penney Company's—and as long as folks are interested in dependable merchandise and want to save at the same time, this Store will continue to grow. At J. C. Penney Company's Store we do not depend on skimped merchandise, irreg ulars, seconds, bankrupt stocks, etc., to make our low prices. Here a yard is a yard. Rayon is Rayon, silk is silk, cotton is cotton, woo! is wool—everything must be up to the J. C. Penney Co. high standard of quality. Honest Value Giving and rapid turn-over of stocks, made possible through our enormous Buying-Power, is the whole secret in a nutshell.

PUSH GROWTH OF LATE VEGETABLES Growth of vegetabies in iate summer and faii is usuaiiy not*so rapid and vigorous as in spring. This makes it important that a iiberai amount of piant food be avaiiabie for their use. Several side applications of suiphate of ammonia or nitrate of soda shouid be given. Scatter it around the roots of the piant $ and work it in. Do not let it touch the ieaves. A teaspoonfui for a good size cabbage^ piant or haif teaspoonfui for a smaii bunch of beans is about tight quantity. Two or three applications may be given, but these should be at intervals of two or three weeks. If this liberal fertilization is given and frequent shallow cultivation is kept up so as to conserve the nioisture and keep down weeds and grass, there is no reason why fall vegetables should not be tender and delici ous.—Progressive Farmer. REVIVAL AT BETHEL METHODIST CHURCH Last week the congregation at Bethel Methodist church held a revival meeting, in which the pastor, Rev. W. C. Merritt, was assisted by Rev. H. 1. Glass, pas tor of Central Methodist church. Raleigh. Great interest is said to have] manifested in this series of ser-j vices, large congregations being! in attendance all the while. It is reported that much of this interest was due to the fact that] Rev. Mr Glass was born in the Cobb's school community, and grew up there, having joined Bethel church at an early age. The sermons of Mr. Glass are said to have been of a high order, and were much enjoyed by the people of the entire community. banners in the mountains are pleased over the outlook for crops this year due ot the fine rains which they have had during the late summer. I The calves raised, the skim milk available for feed and the manure for soil building purposes, are about as valuable as the cream check to the dairy farmer, states one leading dairy educator. THE ORCHARD NEEDS THAT COVER CROP We have seen many orchards recent!y. both conttnercia! and j home, in which summer cover! crops of cow peas were growing, j This is the right treatment, and we urge that these be chopped to pieces in tatp summer or eari fad and aitowed to rot on the ground instead of being cut for hay. If the orchard ground is adready quite rich, it is permissible to cut the hay for feed, but it is not of ten that we find soil in an orchard too rich. Take steps now toward putting in winter legumes in the orchard as cover crops. A good mixture.} in most of the South, is hairy; vetch and some of the smaH; grains. Some prefer other mix tures, hut whatever is used, make plans to get the seed in early.— Progressive Farmer. Three cars of time have been ordered co-operativeiy by farmers of Henderson county.
