GOOD ATTENDANCE AT SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION * (Continued from page one) • Grove Baptist as well as from the lo cal churches. Mr. Sims began his morning lec ture in his characteristic manner, so entertainingly did he talk that none missed a word. His ready wit and pleasing personality draws his audi ence to him unfailingly. "Steps of Pi ogress in Sunday School Work" Was his subject this morning. He took Rip Van Winkle on a sight seeing trip, pointing out the great progress along all lines and then compared progress in every other field to that of the Sunday Schools. He said that it is the duty of the Sunday School to have everything as modern as it can afford and work along modem principles. The standard by which he asked ""those present to measure their par ticular school was very convincing and good lessons were learnod from his deductions. The afternoon session begun at 2:00 this afternoon and will be reported in our next issue. (iold Point Loses To Jomesville, 4-3 On Wednesday, June 24, the Gold Point baseball team, badly crippled by the absence of three regulars, visited Jamesville and met the team there in one of the most interesting and hotly contested games dTThe season. The score was 4 to 3, in favor of James ville, the Pointers losing on errors, which accounted for two of the James ville scores. The other two were home runs by Gurkin and Lilley. All of the Pointer runs were earned, I two coming in the fifth frame when Taylor parked the ball over the right field fence after Grifiin had doubled.| The other came in the seventh when Wrtlriiues singtedv stole- second, went to third ou an infield out, and scored on R. Grimes's sacrifice fly to center. Both pitchers were in fine form, each allowing six hits." Not a free pass was issued. Hardison contribut ed the fielding feature by a leaping, bare-handed catch of M. Grimes's drive in the ninth which looked good for a home run. The next game between the two team will be played Saturday after noon. An interesting game in antici pated. The score by innings: Gold Point : s-.ii 000 020 100 3 Jamesville 101 100 lOx—4 Batteries: R. Grimes and M. Grimes. Gardner and C. Brown. LOSES LIFE'S SAVINGS; FACES DEATH PENNILESS Wjll one of Williamston's olilest negroes, is suffering from hic coughs.- It is staled that he is almost at the point of death.' His case, when viewed back several . years up until now, is one of the most striking that we know. Living from, wlu.t might be termed, the garbage can for many years in order that he might save his small earnings he now faces death penniless. His life's savings are lost, and though-a life'time was required the old negro only accumulated $1,009. While it is not lost, this amount is awaiting the straightening out of one 'he bank's business. But for him it is lost forever, because his life is al most spent. . .

Biteless Mosquitoes ~~~~ Even the pesky mosquito finds Iha science has discovered a way for folks to keep him away. Who will he bite and pester? Surely not the wise people who use this new salve called, Cru-Mo when mosquitoes begin' to buzz. Cru-Mo is not like the old fashion ed smelly oils. It is a white, stainless salve, as agreeable to the skin as dew to the grass. If you want summer without a! mosquito bite, especially when they I pester during the night, or for chil dren, get a small tube of CrUfMo ffom your druggists. Try it tonight. It has an all night effect and makes sleep too sweet for words. Just as good to stop sunburn tor ture.
