If, therefore, you are planning to purchase a Ford car, we advise you to place your or, der and take delivery now. Immediate orders will have prompt attention.

DALLAS, Feb. 18. In spite of the drenching rain falling last Fri day evening the faculty of the Farm Life School 'and the members of the senior class were charmingly enter tained by Miss Alena Rhyne. also a n. ember of the class of 17, at a post poned Valentine party. The con tests were varied and very original, partners being paired off by guess ing famous lovers. Refreshments were served in beautiful little red baskets, partners having the pleas ure of enjoying each others company and the refreshments together. The members of the Civic League assisted by the students and teach ers of the Farm Life School gave a most successful Washington part last Saturday. The purpose of this entertainment was to raise funds to assist in buying a piano for the graded school auditorium. In the afternoon there were a number of amusements for the children such as three-legged races. Back races and the pinning of cherries on a large tree by blindfolded children. Prizes were given to the successful ones. In the serving room and the dining rooms the decorations were appro priate and pretty. Numerous red paper hatchets were pinned on tne snowy curtains, while flags ornamen ted the walls and big boughs with Imitation cherry blossoms gave a touch of spring-tlma to the scene. The waitresses were charming in Mar tha Washington costumes, while Irl Newton and Hugh Rhyne with their knee breeches, silver buckles, lace ruffles and powdered hair looked like cavaliers of Ye Olden Time. The refreshments of oyster stew, fried oysters, chicken salad, cream and cake, chocolate and coffee were sold A Bilious Attack.

Cray asks The Gaiette to publisn tha following open letter to the farm era of Gaston county. He cannot in the short time remaining between now and crop planting time, address a personal letter to each farmer and so takes this method of putting tne matter before them. Following Is the letter: Dear Sir: The unusually short corn crop or last year in this and adjoining coun ties will make good seed corn scarce this spring. It ia important that good corn be planted because infe rior seed gives an inferior stand thereby making poor seed cost more than good seed. Arrangements should be made at once while prices are reasonable and the supply good. In order to get the best seed at the least cost, the farmers should buy their seed together, therefore, I am asking you to answer the questions given below and return this sheet to me so that I may help you to se cure good seed. It is impossible for me to send similar letters to every farmer In the county so I am asking you to mention this to your nelgn bors aqd those who are Interested can send me the information asked for. In answering the questions 1 hope you will consider the needs of your tenants also. Have you seed corn for sale?. . . . If so state kind, quantity, quality, price, etc., on a separate sheet of paper. How much seed corn will you need this sprln? What variety do you prefer! .... Are you willing to use the variety the majority of your neighbors pre fer?
