WHB THREW A BRICK AT CROSS KEYS?

A Place of .Active Business Life in the Limits
of Polk County. . . .
Editor Polk Connty Novtb: ' ' ' -vr ;-
I recently overfieard the yques
tion: "Where is Cross: fieysV'.
For- the enlightenment of the
ignorant, I wish to state; through
the medium of your spicy paper,
that Cross Keys is a very im
portant locality, second -to Col
umbus only during court. It is
situated in Polk county, N.", C,
and bounded onHthe north by the
horizon, east by the Dunkard
church, South, by ; the richest
gqjd mine oh earth, and west by
Mart. CornwelPi. ' "
You can buy a lot, the lumber
to build your house, and- store
goods, for your .general use at
Cross Keys for cash or eggs, s
Mart. Miller and Walt;. Daniel
will dole you out your daily mail
and you can telephone to South
Carolina if you can awaken the
"Hello Girl."
.; You should visit Cross Keys and
buy a lot before the railroad is
built through the town.
At Cross Keys you can be a
Dunkard or a Baptist, as you like.
No one was iniured at Cross
Keys by the comet.
Some of the families about
bross Keys are evidently in favor
of one of Roosevelt's policies.
... If you ever desire a political
job? come to Cross Keys and make
our acquaintance.
The moonshine is not as glar
ing a: Cross Keys as it once was,
yet the thirsty denizen manages
to mak outv .
Yours in haste I
