LAKEVIEW
Mr. and Mrs. Earl Kelly, of near
Hamlet, were the guests of Mr. and
Mrs. W. C. Smith last Sunday.
Miss Frances Blue accompanied a
party from Vass to Trinity College,
Durham, last Tuesday.
An excellent sermon was preached
by Rev. Charles Clark at the Union
church last Sunday evening. He will
preach again next Sunday evening at
8:00 o’clock.
Miss Elsie Coffey left last Thurs
day morning for Atlantic Beach, Flor
ida, where she will spend the most of
the summer with relatives.
The new swan boat will be ready for
use in a few days. Swan is the cor
rect name for the boat, too. It is a
long double boat with a platform at
tached that will carry fifteen people
very comfortably seated in bright
red benches. At the head of it is a
great, big, white swan that swims
along very gracefully while it is be
ing propelled by machinery. Come and
take a ride on it. It’s something
quite unusual for Lakeview.
The Masons of Richmond and Moore
counties had a picnic here last Fri
day. Altho not so many were pres
ent, it is said that the table creaked
and groaned under its load of good
things.
It is reported that Mr. A. J. Oldham
has been better for the last few days.
He is not yet out of danger and it
will be a long while before he will be,
but we hope for him the best.
Miss Helene Dougherty entertained
at her home in Inglewood in honor of
Miss Elsie Coffey, last week. Those
present were: Misses Grace Gardner,
Elsie Coffey, Loula and Johnsie East
wood, Messrs. Herbert Mclnnis, David
Coffey, L. L. Woolley, Mr. and Mrs.
E. M. Aiken, Mr. and Mrs. M. P.
Causey, and little Miss Evelyn Gard
ner. Everyone enjoyed the evening
very much. Refreshments were serv
ed by the hostess assissted by her
aunts. Misses Honoria and Katherine
Brooks.
Miss Bgrnice Nye, of Hamlet, is
spending this we^k with Miss Selma
.Smithy
Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Cooper, of
Statesville, spent Tuesday afternoon
with Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Coffey.
Messrs. David Coffey and Herbert
Mclnnis spent Sunday In Sanford,
most of their time being spent with
Mr. A. J. Oldham at C. C. Hospital.
Mr. Holt Gardner, of Pinehurst, Mr.
and Mrs. P. L Gardner were the din
ner guests of Mr. and Mrs. R. A.
Holland, Sunday.
Mr. Teague, of Hamlet, the relief
operator here, spent Tuesday in Ral
eigh.
Mrs. E. M. Aiken had as a guest
this week, Miss Josephine Foy, of
Wilmington.
Mr. Angus McQueen was in town
Monday, the dinner guest of Mrs. J.
R. McQueen.
Master Dallas Causey spent last
week-end with his cousin. Master Sid
ney Dyer, of Marston.
Mrs. J. R. McQueen, Mrs. D. Mc
Neill, and Miss Pearl McNeill motor
ed to Pinehurst, Tuesday.
Mr. J. R. McQueen made a very in
teresting talk at the Union Sunday
School Convention at Pinehurst, Sun
day evening.
Mr. and Mrs. Thompson and family,
of Hamlet, spent Saturday here, fish
ing. Mr. Thompson caught fifteen
perch, or so it is reported. Who said
that there wasn’t any fish in our lake ?
Mr. F. M. Dwight spent Tuesday af
ternoon in Carthage and Cameron, on
business. Ahem! Big business here
now.
Mrs. R. W. Woodard and sons, Ed
ward and Marvin, spent the latter
part of last week in Goldsboro.
Mr. M. F. O’Connell, Jr., left for
his home in New York last Wednes
day. We hate to see the long faces
of the certain young ladies, but there
is one consolation, “There’s plenty
more fish in the sea.”
Traffic is getting to be something
noticeable of late. Whither people
are going we do not know but it
seems to me it would be a very ex
traordinarily busy world if all the
cars were bound thither on business.
Last Sunday afternoon J. B. East
wood counted 113 cars in one hour.
That is, on the national highway, not
mentioning other little roads. Cer
tainly, and all this happened on SUN
DAY, too, with an average of three
persons to the car. Who says the
world is getting poorer and walking?
Katheleen Gilmore, both of Birming
ham, Ala., were joined in the holy
bonds of wedlock by Rev. Charles
Clark, of Carthage. The ring cere
mony was used, making a very im
pressive wedding.
Mr. Randolph Craig and Miss Grace
Gardner acted as best man and brides -
maid, respectively.
The bride was dressed in a very
attractive gown of black canton
crepe with a touch of blue. She came
up to specifications in brides’ attire,
as “something old, something new,
something borrowed, something blue,*’
is supposed to be good luck for
brides.
The bridesmaid also wore black
with a touch of orange. Both bride
and bridesmaid were brunettes and the
dresses worn were vdry becoming and
charming.
The living room was decorated in
pine and American beauty roses, and
the bride’s chamber was set off beau
tifully by sweet peas.
The bridegroom is a young man of
sterling qualities, and since he has
been here has won a high place in the
opinion of the people.
The bride though not yet very well
known seems to be a very attractive
and clever girl.
They will remain here for some
time, and surely they are welcome.
PINEHURST
will take up his work at that place
the first of June.
Miss Butler, of Hamlet, was the
week-end guest of Miss Mabel Kelly.
A message announcing the death of
Mrs. R. Pyron came as a great shock
to her many friends in Pinehurst. Mr.
and Mrs. Pyron have lived in Pine
hurst for a number of years.. Mrs.
Pyron was making an extended visit
to her home in Cartersville, Ga., and
died very suddenly on Saturday, May
24th. It is probable that both the
funeral and burial services will be held
at her home. Sincerest sympathy is
extended to the loved ones of the de
ceased by the people of this communi
ty.
SAVE BEST SMALL GRAIN
FOR SEED NEXT FALL
Woolley-Gilmore
Quite a beautiful, yet simple wed
ding was solemnized at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Holland last Tues
day afternoon at 3:30 o’clock, when
Mr. Lloyd Lester Woolley and Miss
The community of Pinehurst enjoy
ed entertaining the County Sunday
School Convention very much. The
convention was a great success, both
in numbers and the good addresses.
Miss Flora Davis, Associate Super
intendent of North Carolina Sunday
School Association, gave four address
es, the subjects of which were quite
varied. In her address on “The Wide
awake Sunday School” she gave five
tests by which we can determine
whether or not a school is awake;
namely: (1) It must have a definite
social program, (2) definite member
ship campaign, (3) good equipment,
(4) efficient teachers, and (5) it must
win the souls of its students to Christ.
Two other very interesting address
es were given by Mr. J. M Broughton,
Raleigh. His subjects were “Objec
tives for Objectors,’* and “The Sunday
School as a Life Investment.” On
the latter subject he emphasized the
fact that it is not so hard to get peo
ple to do work but to find work for
them to do. “I have never known a
man or woman,” he said, “who would
not work willingly if asked to do
something for which they had talent.
Never ask a man to lead the music
when you know he can’t sing a note,
but make it your business, if you’re
an official of a Sunday School, to find
something that he can do and put him
at it.” He said that everyone who
joins any kind of an organization
likes to have something to do.
Other interesting talks were given
by Rev. R. G. Matheson, of Jackson
Springs, on “The Young People; How
to Interest and Hold Them in the Sun
day School”; and by Mr. J. R. Mc
Queen, of Lakeview, on “The Sunday
School Teacher that Makes Good;”
and by Rev. George W. Hanna, of
Pinehurst, on “The Most Important
Work of the Sunday School-Evange-
lism.” In his talk Mr. McQueen em
phasized the fact that a teacher must
know his own lesson before he can
teach it, must be able to hold his class
as well as get it in the beginning, and
must strive not only to teach his stu
dents but to lead them to Christ.
Numerous pieces were sung by
voices from the Pinehurst chorus
choir, consisting of a sextette, duets
and solos.
The county superintendent who has
been elected for the ensuing year is
J. Bruce Cameron, of Pinehurst, and
next year’s convention will be held
with the Methodists at Vass. The
county greatly appreciates this invi
tation to Vass. Jackson Springs
Presbyterian Sunday School won the
pennant for the largest average atten
dance multiplied by the number of
miles traveled to the convention. They
had forty-four present and traveled
eleven miles.
Hard showers Saturday night laid
the dust so that the weather Sunday
was fine for the convention. The
showers made the crowd on the first
night rather small, but a large num
ber were in attendance all day Sunday.
At noon on Sunday dinner was served
on the grounds, picnic style. The
twelve tables arranged to hold the
good things were bountifully filled
and a large crowd was well fed.
Rev. George W. Hanna, pastor of
the Presbyterian church, has accepted
a call to a large country congregation
at Antioch, near Red Springs. He
The yield and quality of the oat, rye
and wheat crop next winter will de
pend largely upon the quality of seed
saved this spring. At the present
time no county in North Carolina is
producing sufficient good small grain
seed to supply its local demands.
“This means,” says Dr. R. Y. Win
ters, plant breeding Agronomist of the
North Carolina State College of Ag
riculture, “that we are either plant
ing inferior seed or purchasing seed
from outside of the State. The re
sults of several years careful study
indicates that home-grown seed are
best. The home-grown seed wheat
has yielded nearly four bushels per
acre more than the same variety
brought in from further north.
“During the past season fall-sown
oats were badly killed. This means
that good seed oats will likely be
scarce this fall. Every effort should
be used to save for seed all fields that
escaped the cold and are from suffici
ently good stock to warrant their use
for seed purposes. In some sections
where oats have failed there will be
considerable increase in barley be
cause of its resistance to cold. In
tain sections of the Piedmont region
barley has already become popular as
a grain feed for cattle. The quality
of barley seed generally used in the
State is poor and efforts should be
made this summer and early fall to
secure better strains.
“A large quantity of Abruzzi rye
was brought into the State last fall.
Those who secured good quality south
ern-grown Abruzzi are pleased with
the results. A large number have been
disappointed because the seed pur
chased was not the true. Abruzzi
Those who have secured seed from re
liable sources and have a good crop
should make every effort to save seed
at least for their own plantings.”
Dr. Winters states that this is a
good time to go over small grain
fields that are to be harvested for
seed purposes and weed out all mix
tures of other grains or weeds. It is
easier to take out these mixtures now,
he thinks, than to wait until after the
crop is threshed. If certain portions
of the fields are badly mixed with
other grain or weeds, just cut this
portion for hay or leave it out of the
lot to be saved for seed. Mixed seed
are difficult to sell except for graz
ing purposes, and such seed bring a
much smaller price than pur^ well
cleaned seed.
