The Friday she meant is today, the sth of October; the I hour for the start of the sale is 12 boor; the sale is to be at the Durham County Farm Home beyond Bragt.wr.. and the cattle to be sold are Herefords. male and female. 1 never saw anybody more joyful than Hereford owners about to sell their-Herefords. As the moment of parting draws I near they are as ecstatic as a bevy of young girls going to a I debutante dance. They will go out in the foulest weather to feed and water their Herefords; will stand off and gaze at them in admiration, j calling their good points to the attention of whomever they , can lead into the pasture to look; will stroke them lovingly and will frequently give a further demonstration of affection by muzzling them cheek to cheek, an J then, consoled by a pocket ful of cash, turn them over with utmost indifference to a butcher. Once upon a time I made remarks to that effect to an acquaintance of mine with whom l stood looking at one of her I cattle on the auction block. I ’’Nonsense,” she said. ”Th:s is a heifer and 1 am doing her a kind service by helping to minister to her maternal instincts. She will lead a happy life by having a dozen calves and giving thousands of gallons of milk before she gees to the butcher. F.ve: ybody's time is bound to come.

G. Hurricane Flossy, moving northeast from the Gulf of Mexico last week, brought North Carolina a heavier rainfall than it had ever had before in such a short time. The State had been having a bad drought over most of jits area and, though it would rather not have had such a long and steady downpour. Flossy did it more good than harm. In four days the rainfall here in Chapel Hill was 3.54 inches, which is 7 per cent of the normal fall in a whole year. The subject of wetness reminds me that an import iant reason why Chapel Hill was chosen for the site of the University was its plent iful water supply. Not from rainfall, however—nothing is saitl in the records about its being different from other places in the region in that respect—but from springs. A commission apponted by the University trustees to [select selected this one m the fall of 1792. The lo eality was called New Hojh> Chapel Hill from a chapel at a road crossing a hundred yards or so south of where; 'the Carolina Inn now stands. [The words New Ho|*e were ;drop|>ed and so the name became Chapel Hill. It is [said in Kemp I*. Battle’s, History of the University: "At the northeast corner of the crossing was a chain! of the Church of England, a sad relic of the futile es-« forts to establish a church in North Carolina.” A description of Chapel 'U'l. written by William R. , I Davie, chief founder of the University, contains this' passage: "There is nothing 1 more remarkable in this plaee than the abundance of springs of the purest water, (Continued on Rage 2) I Ruck horn Grange Is State Winner 1 Ruekhorn Grange has won see- - ond plait- in the N.
