Aside from the strength secured

The majority OF children's hats are
In white, many in chinchilIa effects

very good reasons. This shape is sim-

RAIN NEEDED BADLY.
AT GLENDALE
Farmers Are Unable To Set Plants Be-
cause Of Drouth, Interesting So
cial Event. Other Items.

We have no news this week. Our
people are of an Industrious habit and a
Isameness rotine of daily lire makes this
season of the year very dull. A few
merchants sit around in the shade and
talk politics, but it is of no interest to
the public so our patient readers must
be content with a few personals this
week. If we had the powers of D. A.
C., we might write a lot of fiction, but
when we attempt to do so the editor
throws it in the waste basket and calls
it trash. We could give our views on
the dupont road project, but this the
editor does not want.
The most interesting event of the
season occurred here last Friday even
ing when some youngsters, including
AinswOrthy Abbott and the Dickerson
girls, loaded up the farm wagon and
went to the old Avery Clendaniel home,
which is occupied by two elderly maiden
ladies, to serenade them. Ice cream
and cake and other refreshments were
taken along by the serenaders. Many
speeches were made and songs were
sung. When the crowd had left, the
aged ladies were looking much younger
and happier.
1t is with much sorrow that we learned
that the young wife of Olney Carpenter,
near No. 6 School, is very i'll. The
young husband is almost distracted with
grief. The young couple have recently
purchased the Jeremiah Deputy farm
and were starting on life's journey
happy and prosperous. She is the
grand daughter of our old and honored
citizen, James B. jackson.
We are glad to see the pretty and
handsome form of our old neighbor Mrs.
Mollie Gray, of Philadelphia, at the
home of her mother, Mrs. Lloyd.
Mrs. Voshell and son, of near FELTON,,
are visiting her daughter, Mrs. William
H. DickersOn.
Ainsworthy Abbott is improving his
property by the addition of coat of
paint.
We are badly in need of a good soak
ing rain. Potatoes, grass and other
garden vegetables are suffering for
want of water and it is impossible to
set out tomatoes. Our wheat and
clover fields never looked better, how
ever.
