Entertains Book Club
Mrs. John W. Graham was a de-
lig'htful hostess to the Thursday Af
ternoon Book Club which she enter
tained at regular meeting at her home
last Thursday afternoon. The lower
rooms of her attractive home were
thrown enmasse and beautifully dec
orated with spireas and wisteria.
During the business hour $40.00 was
reported as being realized from the
proceeds of the chicken dinner in the
Com^iunity House a short time ago,
and the club voted to donate the salt
and pepper shakers necessary for
giving dinners at this place. Interest
ing reports were made by Mrs. H. W.
Doub and Mrs. Wimberly Bowman,
who were delegates the the Federa
tion of Women’s Clubs’ Convention
which was held in Greensboro two
weeks ago, and the $5.00 pledged by
Mrs. Douh as this club’s contribution
to the Sally Southhall Cotton Loan
Fund was approved. This fund ena
bles girls in this section to obtain
funds for an education when other
wise it would be impossible.
The subject for the afternoon’s pro
gram was “The Early Landscape
School” and interesting papers were
read by Mrs. W. T. Huntley and Mrs.
son River School, Cole and Church”
and “George Innes.” The club aU*o
enjoyed a vocal solo “Into the Dusk”
by Mrs. Reid Pleasants. The next
meeting will be held at the home of
Mrs. H. E. Bowman fn Aberdeen on
May 7th, and the subject will be
“Landscape Painting.” At the close of
the program the program books for
this year were distributed among the
members.
A delightful social hour followed
the meeting. The guests invited in
for this meeting were Mrj. Reid
Pleasants, Mrs. Rosser Jones, Mrs.
C. C. Bethune and Miss Mary Mc-
Keithen.

A Floral Show Surrounding
Every Home
May in the Sandhills is next thing to the climax of
human content and enjoyment.
From the summit the outLx>k is a picture that no
artist but Nature can possibly produce. Down the roads
that cross the ridge the panorama vanishes under the
cover of the sea of floral extravagance.
Variety of color, prodigality of bloom.
Rapidly the front of this big picture is pushing over
the ridge. It is hard to imagine a home location with all
the features that are exhibited here in the opening
spring.
Lucky the household that secures a building loca
tion in the Heights now when selections are still num
erous. Some day they will be few.

Mrs. Neil A. Graham who before
her recent marriage was Miss Mary

approaching marriage is announced
for early summer, were delightfully
honored on last Friday night when
Miss Alyce King charmingly enter

Community House in Aberdeen.
Four tables for bridge were arrang
ed in the spacious living room, which
was artistically decorated with dog
wood and roses, and a most enjoyable
hour was spent at the game. The bri
dal motif was charmingly carried out
in the decorations, score cards, and
especially in the large bridal cake
adorned with a miniature bride and
groom. This attractive cake contain
ed a thimble, a coin and a ring, and
much merriment ensued when the
cake was cut by Mrs. Graham and
passed around among the guests.
After the game Mrs. Graham was
presented with a linen table cloth as
a gift from this club, of which she
was a former member, and Miss Dor
othy Case was presented with hani-
some Maderia mats. The first and
second score prizes were won by Mrs.
George Martin and Mrs. Rosser Jones.
The guest prize was given to Mrs.

Miss Osborne Honored
Miss Mildred Osborne, an attrac
tive member of the faculty in the
Aberdeen schools, was delightfully
honored when the Ladies of the Aber
deen Baptist Church held their class
meeting at the home of Mrs. Olive
in Southern Pines on last Wednesday
afternoon, and presented Miss Os
borne with a surprise handkerchief
shower, each handkerchief being ac
companied with original poems com
posed by members of this class,
which were very amusing. There was
a charming flower contest during the
afternoon (also, during which Miss
Osborne was presented with a box
of candy as the prize. The class as a
whole expressed the wish that Miss
Osborne will return to them as a
member in the Fall and is sorry to
lose her for the summer months.

M^easles S. O. S. Issued
by County Physician
Lots of It in Nearby Counties
and Several Cases Reported in
Moore, Says Dr. Symington
By Dr. J. Symington,
County Heath Officer
For the week ending April 11, 1931
there were 148 cases of new measles
reported from the rural districts of
Durham county and 311 new cases re
ported as occurring in the city of
Durham which means that there are
459 new cases in Durham county in
cluding the city. Adding this to
the cases occurring in the previous
week would mean that there are prob
ably over a thousand cases of meas
les at present in the county of Dur
ham. There are also a large number
of cases of measles in Rocky Mount,
and Rockingham county.
With measles so near we are
likely to have an invasion in Moore
county. For the week ending April
11 there were two cases reported as
occurring in the county. Since then
there have been a number reported
from Carthage, West End, Jackson
Springs and Highfalls. The cases re
ported from Carthage are all Ger
man measles which is a very light
disease. Both measles and German
measles are infectious, however, and
quarantineable and as we have no
vaccine to fight the disease with it
is all the more reason that qu^an-
tine should be carried out so we ask
all the citizens of Moore county,
immediately on the appearance of the
symptoms of measles, to segregate
themselves or have their children
and dependants segregated and
quarantine strictly observed so that
the disease may not be given to
others.

The Fertilizer Question
Probably nothing is as important to the farmer at the pres
ent time as the fertilizer question that confronts him.
Long experience has proven the wisdom of commercial ferti
lizer, and one of the essential factors in handling fertilizer is to get
the most profit from the cost involved. Many brands of fertiliz
er, made by many factories are offered.
The test of fertilizer is the reliability of the maker, the results
in the field the comparative cost, the relation of the ingredients to
the soil type of the field.
Reliable makers seek to know the character of the soil in
which the material is to be used, and to make goods suitable for
that type. They use the proper ingredients, make proper combina
tions, sell at prices that are fair, and get results.
The Pinehurst Warehouses at Pinehurst, N. C., handle and rec
ommend the products of The Armour Company and The Nitrate
Agencies—^two concerns that have demonstrated their Dependa
bility.
The Pinehurst Warehouses can buy fertilizer from any of the
makers, but the policy of this company has been to search out
the best products and to handle the things that stand the most an
alytical tests. For that reason the two concerns mentioned have
been selected as those most advisable to tie to, and the results have
been satisfactory over a period of many years.
We believe we can give the best value for the money that is to
be obtained any place.
