brought a basket OF home grown
plumbs to this Office Saturday. To say
that they were good specimens Of the

make the best kind Of preserves.

County Superintendent James P.
Phillips has purchased a blOoded
roadster Of George Bradley. All Jim
viii have to do is to pull on the lines
and the horse will do the rest, until
the school house is reached. We i'm
