Saturday morning at nine o'clock we leave for Lake Sega for the pic nic. All the people who are taking cars are requested to be at the churches at 8:45, so that the chil dren can be loaded in time to leave at nine. At two o'clock we leave for Hen dersonville, the point for the auto mobile trip promised the children. We need 15 more cars for this trip and we shall be glad for those who are willing, to give the children this trip. The band will be with us on the way to Sega and possibly to Hender sonville. Parents who would like to send their little children who attended Bible school need have no fear as to the welfare of the children.

Rural Policeman Sims, aecom pained by Boone Carey, made a mid on a bootlegging establishment in the East Fork section early Satur day morning, capturing a 60-gallon steamer still and 600 gallons of beer. The operators of the still had previ ously made their escape, but foot prints left behind led the officers to belive that the moonshiners were young boys in their early tce^s. A NOTABLE FOURTH Fourth of July this year is a not able anniversary in several respects. It is the 150th anniversary of the adoption oof the Declaration of In dependence; it is the 100th anniver sary of the death of former Presi dents Adams and Jefferson, it is the birthday of President Coolidge, who was born July 4, 1872. Thomas Jefferson, who wrote the Declaration, and John Adams, who made the principal address in its be half before the Continental Congres both became Presidents of the Unit ed States. That both of them died on July 4, 1826, exactly fifty years after its adoption, furnishes one of the most remarkable coincidences in history. After the establishment of the government of the United States, Adams and Jefferson were political opponents. Adams was vice-presi dent during Washington's two ad minstrations, and succeeded Wash ington as President, but was defeat ed for reelection by Jefferson, who became the third President of the United States. However antagonistic they may have been in politics, after their re tirement from public life Adams and Jeff erson were close friends and maintained a continuous correspond ence for several years. These per sonal letters are among the most in teresting documents of their day. Adams was 90 years of age at his death, while Jefferson was 83. In view of the circumstances stated July 4 has a peculiar signifi cance this year, which can not fail to impress every patriotic American. RAM FURNISHING WATER FOR ANSON CO. FARM HOME CLEAN SPRING WATER SUP PLIED AT MINIMUM COST The farm home of Mrs. B. L. Wall of Pee Dee in Anson county, is now fully equipped with an ade quate water supply secured by in stalling a hydraulic ram at a spring near the house. Just below Mrs. Wall's home there is a branch with | a miniature water fall about 25 feet high. At the foot of this fall is a fine spring flowing about two gallons of water per minute. At the request of County Agent J. W. Cameron of Anson county, H. H. Gordon, farm engineer for the extension division of State College, studied the situation for Mrs. Wall. He found that the house was at an elevation of about 150 feet though a distance of 600 feet from the spring. The spring itself had too small a flow and too little fall to pump the water to the home but by using the branch nearby, Mr. Gordon found that the waterfall would make conditions ideal for using a combination hydraulic ram. The branch water could be used for I pumping the pure spring water to ! the house. A pneumatic pressure tank was I used to hold the water. This was fitted with a relief valve so that any excess water and air could be ex hausted and allowed to escape through an overflow pipe. In this way the ram could run 24 hours a day and require no further atten tion. As a result of making these installations, Mrs. Wall now has water in two bathrooms, the kitchen and about over the yard. Accord : ing to Mr. Gordon the system is j working beautifully and Mrs. Wall ; is much pleased with the conven ience and the relief from drudgery. - THE PASS WORD IN ANY TRAFFIC j Ktfxxm *"*AO C ***** 77i e Custom Built Motor fuel Costs 5 cents More - Worth It - - - FREE Ford Car A 7 THE Auction Sale Of high class Residences and Residential lots and.
