TEN years AGO’ j Attorney G.‘ B. Rowland and Ex- Sheriff Edgar Hall spent Sunday with relatives in Durham. Mrs.-" Rowland came back with them Monday morn ing. 1 Miss Thelma Hall visited relatives in and near Parkton last Sunday. Mr. David Moore or Tarboro, a former resident of Raeford, was in town Monday. Miss Martha Lee McLean who teaches at Huntersville spent the past weekend at home. She was accom panied- by Miss Ethel Bruce, who also teaches in Huntersville. Mrs. J. C.

Bf FOOCE - Blisft Josephtito • Botoc Dem onstration Ageai, is doing,' and has done, some good work in.- encourag- ini^ rural electrification. > Several con^unities are soon to have lights and power available.- ;; A young man, graduate of State College, asked me in 1925 if I would vote for'a bill to allow the State to control all powqr and light compan ies. I told him-I would. This is what I thought was fair to the pres ent chartered com|>anies: Allow the present power and light companies to manufacture' at wholesale rate, and allow the State, counties and towns to retail electricity to the people of their towns, epurities and the State institutions at about the rate people are now paying. And, where all the rural people using electricity as they- should be, it would not be neefessary to levy any taxes, for I believe suffirient funds for all purposes would be collected from this article atone to defray all governmental, expenses, and manu facturers would make as much as they are now making from this source. said. “AU right, consent.” government is: It is a mistabe to spend two doBaiy, U, made to So, if pupils can jOie ipwdsw in eight mondi^ why'nine months term7 There are sonw who will be repeater^ no matter. hOw long" the term. *' S 0 w The Williamsport (Pa.) Grays, baseballers, who are to train here this spring, think they had as good climate for baseball in Pennsylvania as they found here; however, this is quite unusual for this time of the year here. Some writer said there is as much heal in one place as another, but that is not true. There is more heat and more cold some years than other years. Some years there is little blustry weather, and few storms. Little Jimmie was made to rock the cradle against his will, and he said: “Mamma,- if the Lord has any more babies to give away, don’t take ’em. The Educational Department of the Woman’s Club met at the home of Mrs. W. E. Pell Tuesday afternoon with Mesdames Pell, Whitley,” Brown and Trawick as joint hostesses. The home was thrown ensUite for the oc casion and was tastily decorated with spring flowers. At toP conclusion of the program the hostesses served a delicious chicken salad course with hot coffee and whipped cream follow ed by cream mints. The City of Fayetteville has a con tract buying electric current at whole sale, and retailing this out to its population, making enough to pay a good portion of the city’s expenses. The wholesaler is saved trouble and expense of collecting from the re tailers, and the city takes care of the upkeep of the equipment. Were all electric lines put under ground, it would make for safety of the population of the towns and cities and in the tong run, upkeep would be less, for the lines would not blow down, not break so frequently. Mr. and Mrs. John Walker en-i tertained the members of the brie dub and their husbands on Thursday evening at a most enjoyable bridge party. Mrs. Paul Johnson and Law rence Poole won the two high score prizes while to Miss Margaret Currie and Bob Lewis went the tow score prizes. Mrs. Walker served a very delicious ice course. I do not believe it wise to spend very much on State highways. Coun ty roads need more attention. Be fore many years a man can step into a little airship that sits in his front yard, which will rise up like a bir^^ fly over town and park in front of his place of business. Taxying is a draw back now. ^E YEARS AGO Miss Louise Blue spent several days this week in Charlottte. Mr. -and Mrs. Leivis Upchurch, Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Upchurch, Mrs. Arthur Matheson and daughter, Alice Suttoii, and Mrs. R. B. Liewis and daughter Marion, spent several days this week down at the Upchurch es tate on Bogue Sound. I am glad to hear of rural elec trification in Hoke. Electrto lights are so much more satisfactory than oil lamps, and safer. Then running water in every home would not be far away after electricity arrives on the premises. And, cora-shellers, feed-cutters, threshers, feed and corn mills. Electricity is the most satis factory power the world has so far known. Mrs. J. B. McIntyre, of McColl, S. C., was a visitor in town Tuesday af ternoon. Mrs. James Hampton is in Hoff man this week visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Covington. Many of you remember snows on March 28th, and April 4th, 1915. When the April 4th snow came, all the telephone and electric wires in town were blown doivn by the storm.

Robeson farmers were anumg the first to . become reconciled with the recent AAA rulings, althoa^ many of them were cut considerably more than the 20 per cent which was gen eral over the country. Many who formally depended entirely on to bacco and cotton wiU be greatly di versified in their farming dperations for 1940. While tobacco plants are much later than last year, they ap pear to be plentiful. Enough yard age was sown to .transplant five times the acreage allotted to Robeson coun ty and fanners are carefully nursing them along to insure strong, vigorous plants. A quality and not quantity crop is foremost in their minds. Carining factories have sprung up at Rowland and Fairmont and one will be ready at Ldmberton if need ed. Acre after acre oft tomatoes, beans, potatoes, and the like will be contracted for by planting time. One of the most modem pasteurizing plants in the state was opened at Lumberton this week — providing means of a weekly income for the farmers throughout the country. Swine and cattle breeding is^on tiie increase. Two of the state’s largest breeders of hogs are located at Lum berton and St. Pauls, D. T.
