Black, Mrs. Jimmy Webb and Mrs. Pat Jackson were hostess to an open house for Mr. and Mrs. Larry Wood cox Sunday afternoon from 3 to 5 o'clock. Bicycle Visit Mr. and Mrs. Jimmy Webb visited her parents in Laurinburg Saturday. There was certainly nothing unusual about this-but their method of getting there was rather interesting to the neighborhood. Mrs. Webb who has just recently taken up bicycling for exercise decided to ride her bicycle. She figured die could make it in 4 hours. A few minutes after 9 o'clock A.M. die called her doubting neighbors (collect) to report that she'd made it in 3 hours and 7 minutes-and in that time had taken two S minute breaks. Mr. Webb slept on for a bit after his wife left at 6 o'clock -then decided he'd go rescue her. He figured very prominately among the neighborhood doubting Thomases?but became a "believer" when he saw his wife cycle in at her destination after the 25H mile trip. This will not seem so great to the youngsters who ride bikes all day-but to those of us who know just how many pushes on the pedal that it takes to go a mile it seems quite an accomplishment. Congratulations Lib-We'U believe you from now on and save ourselves the price of a telephone call. Magistrates Court The following cases were heard by (he magistrates. Nathaniel A.
