The presbytery met Tuesday evening at 8 o’clock with Sardis church at Linden and the sessions were continued through Wed nesday and Thursday. The spring meeting of Presby tery transacts much, important business of .the Church, electing Commissioners to tbe General Assembly, for one thing, and this is the supreme court of the Presbyterian Church. We haven t heard from Sandy Grove and Lougstreet. snat^ng and raving tikb imid. Also the chickens in the yard were running, ducking their heads and squalling. The other bees on the place were robbing the hive from which we had taking the honey, and a war was on. Those bees attacked everything they met. ‘h" Honor Roll for Montrose School, Month of March, 1926, First Grade. Carl Ansel Odom. Marie Odom. Louise Bevan. Edmund Wright * Second Grade. Russell Odom.

Officers B. M. Miller and J. O Dudley arrested Will Douglas, colored, and captured a whiskey still which they found at his place in the upper part of the county last week. The importance of theautomo bile bus as a public carrier is bet ter appreciated when we think of the sixteen buses that daily visit Laurinburg every hour dur ing the day and for half of the night these buses stop at the curb in front of tbe hotel, where passengers get off and get on and the travel by bus is increas ing daily.

A Boy Who Knew How. (FronorThe Bagpipe.) An American boy nineteen years of age, once found himself in London where hs was under the necessity of earning his bread. He went straight to a printing office and inquired whether beip vpas needed. from?” ii ‘‘Where are you quired the foreman. "America.” warthe'aoswer. “Ah,” said the forenoan, 'from America? Can you set type?” The voung man stepped tooue of the cases, and in a brief space set up this passage from the first chapter of John: "Nathaniel said unto him, ‘Gan there any good thing come out of Nazar eth?’ Philip said unto him, ‘Come and see’.” It was done so quickly, so ac curately, and administered such a delicate reproof that it at once gave him influence and standing with all the office. He worked diligently at his trade, refused to drink, saved his money, returned to America, became a printer, publisner, author, postmaster general, member of Congress, signer of the ,Delclaration of In dependence, ambassador to royal courts, and finally died in Phila delphia, at the age of eighty four. There are more than 160 countries, towns and villages in America named after this same printer boy Respectfally. Herbert McKrichar. Hr. W.
