Mr. Zachary, when first brought to trial, was fined for the mis demeanor, but he stoutly asserted his innocence and declined to pay. It was because of his failure to pay the fine that he w.as sentenced to jail, with labor 'on the roads. But when time came to take him to the roads, his daughter, Mrs. Agnes Higgins, ' protested so ef fectively that he was allowed to remain in the jail until the peti tion for his parole had been cir culated.

This 8th day of September, 1932. R. S. TONF.ci Triiitn. Sl5-4tc-RSJ-06 LIIGHTY IIUlTlffi PLAYS m LUCK (Continued from page one) tail of a squirrel. As he approach ed a small brooklet, whose cold, crystal water was gushing happily by on its way to the Gulf of Mexico, the first real call of the chase came to his ears it was the barking of a squirrel. In a second another squirrel joined in the chorus, to shortly be followed by a full choir. Brother Charlie's heart began beating so strongly that it came near breaking the. ribs of his under shirt. The gun flew from his shoulder and he hurried for the scene of action. A small sap sucker who was sitting on a" small limb of a large tree whitting its beak, gazed down upon the mighty hunter, to die with fright with the look. Fright took its toll and the poor in nocent sap sucker wafted its way downwards, hitting the ground with a light thump, which caused. Brother Charlie to spring behind a large oak and make threats with the double barrel. Upon seeing the cause of the , noise, Brother Charlie wiped the beads of cold sweat from his forehead with one end of the fertilizer sack and with a creeping step advanced toward the hunt. The undergrowth and old leaves and brush made walking a public secret. Brother Charlie decided he had better wade the small stream, thereby drowning his foot steps. The water travel was slow and chilly. As Brother Charlie drew near the squirrels, he discovered that they were in a large, hickory nut. tree. Did his eyes deceive him, or was he gazing upon a tree loaded with squirrels? As he counted 13, he rubbed his eyes and started to count again. The count of 13 was recognized again, while the squirrels were busily eating a hickory nut breakfast. Creeping easy towards the tree, which overhung the brook, Brother Charlie had his eyes upon the tree rather than the brook. He felt himself sinking, to touch the bot tom by the time the chilly waters reached his belt line. He nearly froze in his tracks. After a he roic effort, he waded through the pool and found himself under the hickory nut tree. He was too excited to figure out the best way ot play the hunter, so, cocking both barrels, he pointed the gun upward and with the trig ger finger striking the discharge was ear splitting. How many squirrels do you think he killed? Not one I But the small twigs and leaves began to fall so fast and thick, he was quickly snowed under. It looked for awhile as if Broth er Charlie would smother, to-death, but with a mighty heave, he rent asunder the massive trush and leaf pile and stumbled out of the ruins. Re-loading the trusty double bar rel, he marched forward. Brother Charlie did a foolish thing by not taking a rest cure. He struggled upward toward the brow of a small mountain. About half way up the incline, he undertook to climb over a log. He had placed the gun over the log with the stock downward Brother Charlie started to fall and clung to the gun barrel. The ham fers got caught in some brush and in the wrestling between Brother Charlie and force of gravity they were drawn backward, to be re leased by downward push. Brother Charlie felt the breeze of the passing shots and the hot burns of the escaping powder. But luck Was with him; and with the exception of an ebony face and a smarting sensation on. his face, he was not harmed. Before the hundreds of shots were spent, they tore a squirrel's nest from its mooring between two large dead branches of a tree, sending the family of four dead squirrels to the feet of Brother Charlie. The shots were not satis fied with their work of wiping out the entire family, but continued on their way and tore off a several feet fragment of one of the dead branches from its maternal home, which came crashing downward land tapped Brother Charlie, none too gently, on the head.

NORVIN C. DUNCAN During ' the summer months the Life Abundant Center has made a distinct contribution to Saint Agnes Church and now tha't the Bells are leaving for their winter schedule of missions we wish to make due acknowledgement of their service, and to express our sincere appre ciation. The Center has been well attended, and those in attendance have testified to its value in the highest terms. The guests there have attended the services at Saint Agnes, thereby considerably in creasing attendance, and giving us the inspiration of their presence and interest. Dr. arid Mrs. Bell have been generous; Dr. Bell tak ing a service nearly every Sunday either here or at Highlands, and Mrs. Bell taking a Bible class. Both have given their services, with no hope of reward, except the good which they might do. We deeply appreciate their presence and help, and our prayers and best wishes are with them as they go out upon their tour ofv missions. They are pretty well filled up with engagements for the fall and win ter, and we wish them great suc cess. Also, we assure them of our hope that they are with us again next summer in the center, with another season of activity. In the meantime we shall carry on here with something of the spirit of the Life Abundant Movement, seeking to advance the Kingdom of God in a more abundant life for all His children. U. D. C.

Frank Got There Student Johnson Reaches College in Wheezy Truck Claiming the world's record for the Franklin to Chapel Hill dash in a $30 truck loaded with furni ture, Francis 'Johnson completed a many-stop drive at the University town Wednesday night of last week and crawled gratefully into bed. Frank left Franklin Mnndnv morning in his amazing contrap tion, speeded on his first lap by the best wishes and catcalls of his brothers William (the demon press feeder) and Blackburn. By Tues day morning, what with head winds, carburetor trouble, flat tires, slipping clutches and general cus sedness, he had got only as far as Sylva. But from there on, with the unaccountable whimsicality of antique Chewy trucks, that de praved vehicle caught its second and probably last wind and oared down the mountains like a ghost escaped from Hades.

LIST 360 HEAD IN CATTLE SALE (Continued from page one) After, inspecting some of the largest pastures of the county" Mr. Sloan said that he found some ol the cattle carrying good fat, while others .are not so fat because the pastures were crowded and the dry weather had cut down the grass supply, .w- ".'"-., Of the cattle listed with Mr. Sloan, he expects there will be about three cars of feeders. Any person that is interested in buying a number of good feeders should get in touch with Mr. Sloan to get the full particulars.
