It would take a person well on in years and with a good
memory to remember prices as low as these
They take you back to the days of horse cars™when people laughed at an automo
bile. When a man who earned $100 a month was the “big shot” of the town and an
evening’s entertainment consisted of looking through the family album.

THE WEEK IN VASS
Auxiliary Meets
The October meeting (Of the Vass
Me ''•odist Auxiliary was held on
Wednesday evening at the home of i
Mrs. H. A. Borst. After short devo- |
tional exercises a business session was ^
held, presided over by the chairman, I
Mrs. Borst. Reports were given,
and plans for raising funds and ffOr
mission study were discussed.

ed a salad course.
Tillman, Printer and Farmer
E. J. Tillman is not only an expert
performer ,on the keys of a linotype,
but a real up-to-the-minute dirt far
mer as well. During the summer many
of his local friends feasted on deli
cious cantaloupes and w’latermelons
which he grew, and now come tales of,
his achievements in the sweet potato
field. ^Tis said that he grew four
potatoes that totaled more than twelve
pounds, and that his entire crop was ^
around a hundred bushels, which isn’t |
bad for a man living in town. i
Horse, Mule Perish in Flames
A horse and a mule perished in
the flames which late Sunday evening
destroyed a barn on the farm of N.
H. Amette in the Eureka section
out from Vass. The Arnette family
had gone to church and shortly after
wards the fire was discovered by a
passerby who gave the alarm. The
pastor and congregation hurried to
the scene, and by heroic efforts sav
ed the dwelling from being consumed,
but were unable to prevent the de
struction of th‘3 livestock and con
tents of the bam.
Unique Service To Be Held
Unique will be the sarvice which
is to be held at Old Union Presbyter
ian church next Sunday morning, if
-he plans of the leaders succeed. The
Sunday School superi'htendent asks
that everyone, whatever his or her
tige may be, who has ever recited the
Clhild’s Catechism or the Shorter Cat-
echis-mf while attending Union> be
present at Sunday School there next
Sunday with his testament or Bible,
ready to tell who his teacher was and
who was superintendent when he re
cited the catechism. The program
will djoubtlese awaken much interest.
