The 'change Wao made because of the change in dates of the annual encamp ment of the 113t.h Field’Artillery of the National Guard,being d^elied^to have the World War vetl^ns or^e original 113th Field Artiliery gather at Fort Bragg with the men and officers of the 113th Field Artillery of today.; "~- 'Ihe il3th Field Artillery, wbi^Srad a unit of the famous ijrj^ieth Division, was an al- 90 lOO per cent.

JlpVe are glad to hear that Miss Ida McLauchlin, who is at Hi^b smith’s hospital, is getting along fine now. We saw a freight train pass through Fayetteville Friday with 95 cars loaded for the most part with Irish potatoes. J^he first watermelons of the season were shipped into town last week, and tbe prices were as usual pretty high. European grapes will surpass he peach crop as a profit maker for the Sandhill farmer, say some enthusiasts- We do not know why people do two things: Wait so long about pavii^ for The Journal, and fool about giving in. The road to Fayetteville now eads by Rockfish station. And it’s very good road, and not any urther to the city that wav. The road between Aberdeen and Troy will soon be oil fin ished, except the hardsurface from Aberdeen to Pinehurst. A. E. Allen, a successful poul- tryman t^Cary in Wake county, raised 1,186 broilers lo the age of ive weeks with the loss ^f only Mrs.lnaBethune and daughters ?eggy and Isabel, and the editor of The Journal spent the past week end with Mr. C. J. Poole and family at Troy. It has been everything but a wet spring, and folks have bad the best kind of a chance to work their crops; still there are same real grassy now. There are now 6,795 school buildings in North Cajolioa with value of $84,541,828. as compared with 8,049 school houses valued at $10,434,117 in 1915. '•iJdr. B. J. Jones has movel his stock of groceries from fhe Heine building into the store i-ecenlly vacated by. Smith fcrot; next door to Baucom’s Cash Store. There was an almost unbroken stand of cotton in tbe fields all the spring until the last cool spell, and now there are gaps in the rows on every farm It just died out. McLauchlin Co. sells lots of bay, and while they make a profit on what they sell, they wouldn’t care if people grew their own hay—they would think more of these same people. Several cars of dewberries have been shipped from Raeford. 10 cars to be exact, and these have sold for only moderate prices, still the money comes in at a time when it does a lot of good. Battery F is a fine military or ganization, composed of the best boys in the county, and since its organization' or since it first went to an encampment it has won the plaudits of officers in the regular army. A farm boy named Efird left his home in Union county a few years ago, went to Charlotte and went to merchandising in a small way. Now he is tbe head of the Efird chain of thirty-six stores, all large ones. Hrrnett county commissionera have decided to build a county home. ^ Mr. Robert Peeie, who taught in'Bertie thp past year, is puw at home'...^ ' - The grass and weeds are as thick as they can grow, since the showers came.

There has been one wet section in this county all spring—that around the city water tank, which is allowed to fill up and run over for hours at a time al most daily. A series of revival services begin in the Baptist church this, Thursday, evening at 8 o’clock Rev. A. P. Stephens, pastor of Red SpringSxBaptist church, will assist Pastor Hoyle.

That thing would sound mighty bad at one-thirty in the morning. '>l.Rev. Mr Stephens, pastor of Red Springs Baptist church will assist Rev. J. E. Hoyle in a series of meetings wnich begin in the Baptist church this evening (Thursday) at eighty o’clock. Those fellows, Everett and Norman, who were tried at Laurinburg last week on a charge too dastardly to print, were give'5 to 7 years in the State Prison. That was too light a punishment for tbe of- fenfie it would aaem to most folks. Time waf when only men and women of unimpeachable char acter were licensed to teach school, and only in recent years were indiscreet persons allowed to disgrace the profession, and we are of opinion that as yet only a few, and in every instance within our knowledge, they were importetJ, and not all thosa by any means, but a few. needed the Wilson county regulations, or something similar, for the protection of the good teachres, and society generally. It is a fact, the Superior court judges serve on an avec^ge of $9 weeks a year. That was before tbe law was passed creating four emergency judges. These judges were not needed, and the Gen eral Assembly knew it when it passed that law. ' But more men must be given jobs. Newspapers are responsible for a lot of court co^, thoogh. When a crime is committed, the newspapers give all the evidence they can gather, and every read er forms and expresses an opin ion as the guilt or innocence of the party or parties, so this makes it expensive to get a jury.

A hen in Mr. Chapman’s pen also won tbe certificate for the highest indi vidual record in May, tying an Alabama ben. each having laid an egg every day. Will Adhere to Tbe Rule. For the past two years tbe rule governing promotions in the Raeford school has been as fol lows: That no pupil may be pro moted under any condition who fails on three or more major subjects. _ In the case of pupils who fail on less than three ma jor subjects an examination will be given in the fall if the pupil 80 requests to determine wheth er or not the deficiency has been made up. This exception should be noted that high school pupils will be promoted who have at tained the required number of units. I wish to serve notice that we will continue to follow the rule as outlined above. ^ ' (Signed) W. P. HAWFIELD. Honor Miss Hok.
