Editor Grit:- Owing to the fact that Cosy Corner's generosity has prompted her to enlighten on us the perilous subject of "love" by favoring us with expressions of ancient wri ters, it behooves me to aid her, in my limited way. While I am as deeply interested in throwing the light on this long shadowed subject as little Cosy, still I do not see it as she does. No doubt Cosy searched the writings of great men, volume after volume, seekine: quotations that would be in keeping with her fancy.

Now, brethren, this meeting means much to our success, and hereby ask all who are inter ested in our phone system to come and let their wants be made known. Though this tern has been adopted by Chat ham County Farmer's Union, it does not mean that you must be a member of the Union in order to get a phone, so come and share with us.

The literary societies of the Siler City Graded School will hold a public debate Friday night on the query: "Resolved that ed ucation is of more value to a boy than a girl." The girls have the negative and the boys the affirm ative side of the question and it will no doubt be a battle royal. The subject for discussion is not as simple as it would appear and possesses hidden springs of thought that will be a geyser un der the deft hands and eloquent voices of our young Demosthenes. We await the outcome with anx iety and trust when the smoke of oratory has cleared that both sexes will be satified and will then ' 'bill and coo' ' as heretofore. of these inferior articles, as you know something of the quality of the fairer sex.
