Miss EDNA HoUGH and Miss lisa
Hayes have opened a studio in the
Second National Bank building and
will receive pupils in china painting
and art needle work Also take orders
for Christmas work. The young
ladies have some beautiful specimens
OF their skill that should find ready
buyers.
YOUR money will be refunded every
time you get tough meat at the City
Market.
ONE of the signs of the progress
of the town is to be seen in the eff
forts of the water company to keep
up with the extension of the town
and the growth of the demand on its
services 1t is very hard matter
to keep pace with the growing use
of the water by the people here and
that shows that the population is
rapidly growing if nothing else
showed it.

counties as good as this one is, was
the.remark Of travelling man made
while waiting for train recently
''There is always lots of business here
and the money is always forthcoming.
You have one Of the best counties /
waseyer in in my life" These words
of commentator are well deserved and
should be pondered on by the few
mossbacks who do not appreciate the
place in which they live The trou-
BILE with the kicl<ers is that they have
never been anywhere and do not APP
preciate what they have because they
know too little.

THE frost this morning was the
heaviest that has been seen this fall.
A heavy fog hung over town also on
account of the cold SNAP that had ar
rived The vegetation that has not
already yielded to the frost king will
now have to bow to the inevitable.
Now is the time that we should
appreciate the advantages of brick
pavement. The roads are getting
very muddy and had the streets not
been paved we would have seas of
mud all over town in place of the
clean dry streets.
THE chestnut crop all over the
country is failure this year and the
local dealers are in despair of meeting
the calls that are made for the nuts
which are in great favor by the people
who have been used to getting them
every year.
Why pay $3.59 to $500 for shoes
when you can buy the Emerson Shoe
leather lined, at Waters up-to-date
Shoe Store for 1925.
WHY live in darkness when you
can get all fixtures for gas lights at
Smiths Dry goods store.
THE judgeship fight in Fayette
county is attracting some attention
here on account of the proximity of
that county and of the row that is be-
ing raised over the contest by the two
parties. They have had terrible
time and the fur has been flying in
handfulls.
For SALE: A good heavy horse.
Apply to VIM. Wilmington.
THE work of cementing the floor of
the municipal hall is going on and
when it is done the fire apparatus will
have one of the best possible places of
storage The town has always looked
after the fire protection carefully and
it does not propose to go back on this
record. More hose should be pur-
chased however as the old hose is
getting defective.

in any excitements of this kind. We
hold our elections in the years of the
congressional and national elections
and this plan is coming more and more
to. be followed. a better scheme is to
hold the state elections separately as
there is then more chance to get the
best officers for the state when nation
al issues and partisan politics do not
cut so much figure as they do when
the Presidents or Congressman are be-
ing chosen.

ments, for special parties, or almost

THE good, true citizen will do al
in his power to encourage public en-.

to invest in those enterprises or not
and the good citizen who has nothing

his encouragement with which to aiG
those enterprises and uses them we'll
is deserving of far more credit thar
the citizen who, having nothing but
sswind'' to use, employs it in fighting
tearing down and driving away those
enterprises which have been establish
ed and keeping away Others which
might come to the community. The
latter, while engaged in abusing ane
discouraging enterprise, may call the
former stake" but it does not altel
the fact that the latter is paralyzer
a destroyer, barnacle, deadweight
upon the community and worse, fol
while he consumes the substance Of
the community, he not only does not
aid in renewing, but hinders and
abuses those who would do so.
