The price of chickens this year ii paying fairlv well for raising them. The price of eggs also! pavs for the feed the hens eat, that is where good luck has ruled.

He com mitted the crimes July 10th, and was sentenced July 18th. Spelling is an art, an accom plishment that is not abiding. Sometimes we spell anything atid everything we need, and then murder the simplest words. We are liable to miss any little word. Once we recall we found the word TH AY in our paper. We often use words that never existed. We have never gotten out a paper that did not humili ate us when we read it after it is off the press. Sometimes the type get mixed, and then of- itener we just misspell words due to mind on something else. Meets With Raeford Baptist Church 00 Thursday and Fri day, July ZO' and 27.
