The two newspapers of the town
stood squarely for the Bond Issue

Vally News has right to "feel
big, " as this is about the first county
election that it was in the majority.

Richards, Apr. 26.-Mrs. Arthur
GRAPHICAL is spending few days this
week at Pisgah visiting homefolks.
The school at this place closed
today. This has been one of the most
successful years in the history of the
school. Miss Margaret Williams who
has well known reputation as an
educator, has sustained the same in
every way this year, and we trust she
will come back for another year. A
few more years of grading and care
full management, and a modern up to
date school building is all that is
needed to make this school second to
none in the southwest. We have the
meteral, there being about 300 child
ren enrolled this year.
Besides having a good principal we
have had good teachers in the other
departments, and our people should
feel proud of the work done during
the past year.
The Christian church at this place
will be dedicated Sunday, May Both.
Rev. MIR Combs, the State Evangelist
Will preach the sermon. Following
the dedication series of meetings
will be held, continuing for week

The wagc-earners are a disad-

bOrer is powcrless, and concerted or

Capital can exist for time without

What is the outcome? Is it the sue
