Our young friend, DR.. Gray, of
Columbia, is here among his numer-
Gus friends.
To use a slang phrase, l am
"rather dry" of items this week,
and would gladly escape a duty l
feel myself so little qualified to dis
charge.
Some of our young men think
they can tell the tramp of widow
er's horse on a dark, rainy night,
whereupon they make serious
charges against q worthy widower.
The proof, however, is rather thin.
Mr.. Goldman came very near los
ing two of his little girls the other
day. Curiosity led them to take
each a drop of croton oil, the effects
of which were quite serious. Pa
rents would do well to keep drugs
of that sort under lock and key.
Mrs. Wilson had a stroke of pa
ralysls last week from which she
has only partially recovered. She

good old women, whose piety, vir-

Who will say our town is not
prosperous when it is known that
the alleys are being covered in for
business houses. One is being

and will be an eligible site tor a

Mrs. Col. Walker, too, has left us,
having gone to Columbia to make
that pleasant little city her home
through the summer. Hope she
will enjoy life there, but we cannot
think it will be long until she re-
turns to her old friends again. She
will be sadly missed in this commu-
nifty.
Mrs. Pugh, who came among US
five years ago, and has lived with
her sister, Mrs. Jones, will return

nifty Will follow her to her far of

invited to partake OF the hospital

the appointed hour about forty of
the fraternity were present. To at
tempt to satisfy the almost insa-

eaters required strong nerve ard
a loaded table. However, Mrs. r..
proved equal TO the occasion. Be-
ing fine judge Of men and know
ing the capacities OF her guests, she
had killed the iatted calf. pig, Cob
bier and rooster and prepared good
things enough for a regiment Of or
binary men. 1t is useless TO try TO
tell how much the supper was en-
joyed, and the quantity OF viands
eaten. Every one sustained his
reputation, except DIR. Ezra e. and
Henderson S.,who we're very unwell.
Hortensius was very much dis
tressed because he could not eat
everything on the table.
Mr.. Van Edmundson has returned

TO commence practice aud house

Our farmers have been investing

The spring fights opened a few
evenings ago with considerable
noise but little damage. We had a

he was perfectly confident Of his
election. Tom Reagin, jr.. was

much preference for one of our
young ladies at the present juno
ture. But hold on a little while
gentlemen, and we will soon be able
to supply the demand.
A customer here ordered q quar-
ter's worth of soda from a mer-
chants clerk. Sunday morning
the Mother Martin looked on per-
picked while the little Martins
tugged away at the gummy biscuits
Sc. before them. She found q
ready solution in the quarter s
worth of sugar the widower clerk
had put up for soda. 1t is softly
limited that his ideas were running
in a set of new matrimonial harness,
and that something sweet was on
his mind at the time.
Out of all the infants born in this
vicinity this year we have yet to
hear of boy. 1 can only account
for this on the principle that we
produce that which is most profita-
BILE and in the liveGest demand. 1t
is also suggested by friend at my
elbow that this crowding the mar
ket with choice bits of femininity
is due to the fact that it is easier.to
make dress for q girl than a pair
of trousers for boy. At any rate,
to put an astrological construction
on the matter, the female star is in
the ascendant, and, what is more, il
ought to be. LINN.

Vale Mills.

Our farmers have begun to pillow
some and make other arrangements
for another crop. They are always
on time with their work and the
consequence is they make good
crops. There will be a large crop
of cotton planted this year. The
wheat crop, notwithstanding the
many complaints elsewhere, is look
ing very well. The fields are very
green, and some have stock on it
to prevent 1t heading too soon.
The bell at the factory rings out
in clear notes as in days of yore
and gives the village much more
animated appearance.
Mr.. Doc Anderson has opened a
school at the Short school house.
Mr.. F. Smithson and lady were

very sick for some time past, but is
now convalescent. Mr.. Will Nc
Kissack is thinking of going to Col
orado soon, but we hope he will de-
eide to remain here. Miss Lee
Steele was visiting at Capt. divers
last week. We hope she will make
her visits frequent.
Our little village has been the
scene of many amorous adventures
recently, in which Cupid has been
pronounced, in more than one in
stance, well nigh victorious. We
hope that these buds of love In
graft ed now will bloom in all their
glory with the opening of spring.
We have had many parties, socia-
bles and other festivities recently.
Capt. Oliver and lady gave an en-
tertainment to their neice, Miss
Matte Oliver, on the night of 9th
ult. Numerous friends were in
vited and all enjoyed themselves
very much. The evening was passed
with games of several kinds, inter
spersed with sweet music on the
piano by Miss Oliver. One of our
boys says she plays "Sweet bye
and bye" SO sweetly that he can't
help being by her. After passing
of the time most agreeably to all
for sometime, we were treated to
some delicious refreshments pre-
pared by the skillful hands of Mrs.
Oliver, who, as a hostess, has no
superior and but few equals.

Advanced Bids.

Saturday last was the day fixed
by the chancery court for reopen
ing bids on land sold under DEGREES
rendered at the previous term. The
ten per cent. advance required to
be offered by petition before bids
are reopened was made in several
cases, after which the various tracts
of land were sold at figures consid.
erably above the original purchase.
In the case of Carey Gilbert and
others against LYDIA Nelson aud
others, three tracts OF land were in
volved. The bid on one OF these
was raised nearly one hundred pei
cent; another, which originally sold
for $21S, brought $3.50, and the re-
naming tract, which was knocked
off on the day of sale for 1928, was
captured by bid of 5000.
In the case of Holt against Coats
tract which sold originally for
$3.50 brought $305, and the bid on
a tract in the case of Burgess
against Clark was raised from 1928
to $I,3O5-nearly ninety per cent.
All this would seem to indicate
that real estate, which for so long
has been drug on the market, Is at
last coming to the front In response
to a healthy demand.
1t is suggested that the practic-
of reopening bids and allowing
them to be raised after the property
has passed into the hands of a pur-
chaser, is one that should be abol-
lshed, as it has a tendency to rem
der the original sale mere farce,
and prevent purchasers from attend
ing it. This practice is allowed un-
der ruling of the supreme court
and it sometimes proves a hardship
to the purchaser, especially if he is
a farmer, who takes possession of
the land and makes arrangements
for cultlvati1g it, only to be ousted
six months later by some person
who sees fit to offer an advanced bid.
