MeSsrs. Gotten Il Bryan, the roof
/ painters, have done considerable work
since they have been here, and if all
+ the leaky roots in town should receive
the attention needed they will do a
/ great deal more. And not ONLY is
Their paint recommended for this pur-
! pose but to preserve the tin and shin
! gle as well and prevent them from
decay and rust. AS far as we have
/ heard their work gives entire satisfac
! ton.
Jim Gin, the expert young colored
barber, who has been with Dave Haw-
/ kIns the past few years, has taken a
/ char at Oscar Outlaws shaving par
Tors. Jim is an experienced hand in

We are sorry to see that some OF the
small boys about town are engaged in
/ breakn" up birds nests and .srObbinon
them Of their eggs. The practice as
/ far rs we know is confined to English
! SparrOws. These birds are considered
4 nuisance by some people but that
does not lessen the extent of the cru
city in committing the act. 1t is wrong
and Objectionable in its nature and
may lead to other birds sharing a sim
liar fate to that Of the innocent spar
rows. Let the boys quit this ugly
| habit and they will be better for it.
Saturday was observed by the Far
mcrs' Alliance as Polk Memorial Day.
y pic mic was held at Gillburg which
was attended by large crowd A
good dinner was served and there was
an abundance to eat, in fact enough to
have fed a great many more. Speeches
were made by Messrs. Il. 7. Garrett,
w. II. jenkins, =. e.. Rowland, Arch
IIoyIe and Fuller Coghill. Plummer
Rowland acted as master of ceremO-
MES and introduced the speakers. Con-
tributiOns were made to the Polk
| monument fund, but the amount col
| lCcted we have not learned.
Miss Alice Winslow Bogart, of Wash
ington, \. G., and Miss Sallie Law
renee. Of Tarboro, spent short time
very pleasantly and to the delight of
friends while passing through here yes
terday. These young ladies are num-
| bered among the lOveliest and most
| attractive of Eastern Carolina, and it
was regretted that they could not re-
main longer in our town with which
they were so greatly pleased. Miss
| Bogart went to Greensboro, where she
| will spend Il few weeks, and Miss
| Lawrence was going to Oxford to Join
her fathers family who are now max
inc it their home
