In the .-tress <-f the busy day the eyes are often forced to accomplish their work in spite of latent defects and as a result of this there is an enormous amount of nervous energy consumed by the ryes that should be kept in reserve. Correctly fitted lenses strengthen the muscles of the eye and save a waste of nervous energy throughout the entire physical system. Our examinations are thorough and glasses are right. Have your eyes examined. DR. D. M.

This i building, by the bequest of Miss ; Xiuicy Waters, was erected in me>" • ry of her brother, Captain A. G. Witter*, a brave Confederate soldier, lulled in the battle of Gains Mill, norr Richmond, Yu., .July 27, 1XG2. Th.- building, thirty by thirty-six. two stories, built of pressed brick, the smallest of our buildings adorns the crest of the Hill. The library is a fit monument for one who gave bin life for native land—more appropriate by far than glistening marble or lofty granite. In this building there is a li brivry, a reading room, apd the Em ersoniur, Literary Society hall for girls. Nut even a Uriel history ot 1 led m©n High School would be complete without grateful mention of the la mented Mr. Thus. J. Ramsuur who, probably, was first to conceive the iiieu of making Piedmont strong enough for the needs of anyone and reasonable enough in price for every one earnestly seeking educational ad vantages and the late Maj. H. F. Schenck whose heart and soul and muster mind was devoted/ to Pied mont and to the ideals for which it stands. He was heard to say that while he hud never received a penny from the school in the way of finan cial dividends he had never invested money in anything that pleased him better than the money he had invest ed in Piedmont High School. Piedmont, once the adopted child of the Kings Mountain Association, for many years a private, non-sectarian, I Christian school, then for three years , a private preparatory school aided by ' the state anil now a full fledged state j high school with better equipment, a 1 larger faculty and with a glorious history of more than a quarter of a century of achievement behind it, has bright visions of what may still be accomplished for God and humanity. Through varying fortunes the school lias never deserted the ideals of its founders nor has it disappointed those who were friends in the privations, hardships and heroic struggles of its early history. It has been and will be the constant effort of Piedmont Hjgh School to inculcate a spirit of rever ence for God' and Holy things. It is our rule to give the best possible service for the least pos sible money in all funerals com mitted to our charge. We do not care to have peopie say after ward that though the funeral was all that could be desired, we were more than well paid for our services. We strive to earn ■'ood will, cverv time.
