Oh our office. Truckers would do
Wen To examine before shipping.
The. Directors of the Clinton
Loan Association held meeting yes
terday and elected Capt. w. l.. Fai-
son cashier, to fill the vacancy caused
by Mr.. Johnson's resignation.
We were pleased to see Mr.. A.
+. johnson out in his yard yester-
day. Rest, care and immunity frsn
cares is all that is now needed for
his gradual recovery, but these needs
are absolute. He has wisely resign
ed his position as cashier Of the
Clinton Loan Association.
DIR. Cas- Herring Of Concord, but
originally Of this county, broke his
left arm last Wednesday. He was
riding bicycle, the tire came off, he
fell and shattered his arm. The
probability is that he will not he a.
bic to again practice his profession,
as dentistry requires a strong arm
and steady nerves.
We understand that four quartz
Of huckleberries were shipped from
Warsaw last week, and that several
crates will be shipped this week.
The outlook in this county is for q
large crop. Except in a few iocali-
ties, there are equally as many as
last year. 1t will not be many days
before shipments will be made from
here.
"A cotton factory! What would
it do for Clinton? What you'd it
do for Sampson county? What would
it do for the stockholders? Business
men, think of this and think of it
constantly until your thoughts con-
ctntrate, crystalize into action, IN
til the bum Of machinery gives ar
electric tremble to Clinton's pro-
gress.
Watch THE CAUCAsIAN's record
at The head of the first column of
second page. You will notice that
it is gradually climbing up; but it
ought to increase much faster. Have
you Il neighbOr who does not take
his home paper? If 50 send US his
name On postal card, and we will
remind him of his neglect of duty
by sending him a sample copy.
Little children do you like The
CAUCASIAN? We fear that we have
given too much attention and space
to politics and business matters to
remember to have something in the
paper each week that would interest
You. But that shall not be the case
any longer. Cook out for the "Child-
ren's Corner" next week, and each
week after wards, and occasionally
write us little for it when you have
something good that } on wish to see
published. You will find the "Child-
ren's Corner' in the 9Th column of
the LIST page.

tainment will be given in Atkins

Our suggestion for Sampson
Fair next fall has met with a favor
able reception generally. But if we
are to have fair there is no time to
oe lost, a great deal of work and a
considerable amount of judiciOus adj
vertising is 10 be done to make it 8
success. We have just been over to
examine the grounds and buildings
and find them in bad repair. There
is besides A debt hanging over the
place. 1t will take several hundred
: dollars to put the buildings, etc. in
: repair besides raising the debt. But
all this can be done and still the fail
made to clear expenses, we think
with proper management. Would
it not be good idea for the stock
holders to have meeting and dis
. cuss the matter:
