Their attractive home on Wade street was within itself a garden i of roses and chrysanthemums, filled with love and beauty. The many candles which shown forth, each from its own cosy corner, seemed only as stars to light and guide this happy couple on life s journey. The guest of honor was Miss (iehr ken of Augusta, (ia. Mrs. Dr. J. M. Covinton enter Uined the Hook Club Thursday afternoon, Nov. 21st at the hand some colonial home. She was assisted in entertaining by Miss Shelley Hornc. The answers to the contest were dress materials, something that always interests woman-kind. The dining-room presented a scene of beauty. The large table was entertaining to the eye and the snowy white clothes were spread in profusion beautiful pink and white rases ar ranged artistictially with luscious Malaga and Tokay grapes. In the midst of the decorations placed here and there were brass candle-sticks with pink candles which cast a brilliant glow over nil.

Tbe Ansoa Teacher's Association. We are glad to note that Maj. Wall, our County Stierinten dent, has called a meeting of the the teachers of the county for the purHXse of organizing a Teachers Association. There should be one of these associations in every county in North Carolina. The advantages of such an or ganization are many. It brings tho teachers together, and gets them acquainted, and when they learn to know one another they naturally relate their exieriences in the school room to their fellow workers, seeking advice and sug ge lions from them. They are made to feel that they do not stand alone in the work, and re alizing that they arc engaged in a common cause, they lecome more and more altrustic. I tesides being able to discuss ques tions of importance among them selves, they have the opiortOnitv of seeing and hearing from time to time a nvidel class recite in some secial subject, anil also the opportunity to hear some distingu ished educator discuss some t peda gogical subject. These advantages alone should le sufficient to enlist the support of every one engaged in the work. Hut in this day of progress, the teacher is one of the most im portant factors in any community. ami they have to hustle or the community will leave them be hind. This is the day of orjran- izations, all trades and professions have their associations or unions. If it is necessar3 for these vari ous classes of people to organize to carry on their work more successfully, how much more necessary for the teachers, who are builders for eternity. Ix?t us thank our honored Super ntendent for starting the move ment, ami let each of us do all we can to make it a success. J. C. Ci:awmi:i, 'rincipal Morven High School. Wiiestoro Mia Gets Yaluatle Pa- teat. Our townsman, Mr. W. L. tose, is just in receipt of a notifi cation of a patent he has been granted on a cotton chopper. The machine is supplied with double runners, scrapers and hoes attach ed. The hoes pass laterally and horizontally across the cotton row. back and forth, and arc adjustable to leaving aui desired width, cut- ing the cotton out so as to leave one or more stalks as desired. The An ma machines can be made for one or wo horses and will chop eight to en acres tier day. Mr. Rose began working on his model several years ago and fin ished it a few montlis ago when he sent it to the patent office. A few days ago the machine with a de scription of its parts was illustrat ed in the Patent Gazette. Since that time he has received a num ber of requests from parties who wish to buy the patent or manu factorc the machines. Notice to Testers.

Re- Saturday night about 8 o'clock, a fire alarm was given, the lien ton house having been reported to lie on (ire. A number of citizens and the tire company in charge of its excellent chief, Mr. W. B. Kerr, soon arrived on the scene and found that only a bed in the room of a boarder was burning and this was extinguished. But lle sad inirt of the affair was the disaster which befell Mr. Kerr. He hurried into the room where the blaze was discovered and which was tilled with the densest -.moke. Finding himself about to be overcome, he rushed for the door, but could not get out on ac count of the crowd. He then turned quickly to a window and jumied, falling to the ground some distance and fracturing the left leg just above the ankle. The sad feature is the fact that Mr. Kerr is to be married on the 3rd day of December, but "Billie says that one broken leg can't keep him from performing his part in the ceremony on that day. Morven News. The recent heavy rains have retarded the progress of the farm ers seeding in their grain and also made time hang heavy on the hands of the merchants. Mr. Worth Morrison, who has Ijcen dairying in Kansas for some months, has returned home for a few weeks' vacation. Kev.
