livered his lecture on the sOrioin and
Destiny of the Anglo-Saxon People,"
at Burwell Hall last Thursday even

in support of his propositions in
tracing out the Anglo-Saxon race and
the prophesies made as to their des-
tiny in overrunning, and conquering,

A Vance County Man to Marry In
Florida.

Mr. and Mrs. William S. Knight, of
Plant City, Florida, have issued tick
cts of invitation to the marriage of
their daughter Sallie, to Mr.. j. Lewis
Burroughs, on Wednesday evening,
Aug. 10th. The ceremony will be
performed at half past seven o'clock
in the Baptist church at Plant City.
Mr.. Burroughs is a Vance county
man, son of Mr.. and Mrs. j. f. Bur
roughs, of Dabney. He has for some
time been in the employment of the
Florida Central & Peninsular Rail
road at Plant City, filling the place
as chief agent-a position of trust
and responsibility requiring unusual
business capacity and skill, owing to
the great competition of this line and
the Plant system. Mr.. Burroughs is
rated among the most popular men
in the service both by the higher
officials and his fellow employees, and
the prospective bride is said to be
one of the most accomplished young
ladies in the Land of Flowers.
Immediately after their marriage
Mr.. and Mrs. Burroughs will leave on
visit to their parents at Dabney,
arriving in Henderson via Atlanta
Special on the morning of the twelfth
or thirteenth.

Strictly Business.
The publisher of a newspaper has
one thing to sell and one thing to
rent. He has his newspaper to sell
and part of his columns to rent.
Can anyone tell why he should be ex-
pected to give away either one or the
other? He can do so if he chooses.
and as matter of fact he does fur
nish a good deal of his newspaper
space rent free. But it does not fol-
low that he should be expected to do
so. 1t should be recognized as a
contribution. exactly as the giving
away of goods by merchants would be
But, strange to say it is not looked
upon in that light at all. Yet every
one knows that the existence of a
newspaper depends upon the rent OF
a portion of its space and the sale OF
the paper, the same as merchant 3
success depends upon the sale OF his
goods instead Of giving them away.
