More keenly than ever. during that
week in the ofice. did Daylight realize
that he had no social, nor even human
contacts with Dede. The situation was
such that he could not ask her the
simple question whether or not she
was going riding next Sunday. Thus
he found another card in the hand

portant that card was to become he
did not dream. yet he decided that it
was pretty good card.
Sunday came, and Bob. out in the
Piedmont hills, behaved like an angel.

they were side by side and going in

He noted that her eye was first for

SCALP BOUNTY CONTINUES
2l,023 ScaIps Received And Paid
For BY County Clerk J. Andy
Wilson

Twenty-one thousand and
twenty three rabbits
died in Lubbock county
last month according to actual
count by County Clerk J. ANDY
Wilson. These rabbits were all
scalped and their ears brought to
the Clerk for which he paid out
of a scalp fund created through
appropriation by the County
Commissioners Court, four cents
per pair or a total sum of SSO4. ~.
This seems a great amount of
money to S. md for rabbits scalps,
but TO let twenty-one thousand
twenty-three rabbits run at lare c
and have access TO the crops in
the county they would destroy
several times that amount. SC
in the end we consider the money
well spent. The court announced
at its sitting in July that they
would pay bounty on all scalp:
brought in by the first Saturday
in August and have agar
extended the time to the frs
Saturday in September which

Movement TO Build Highway Between VII
GINA Capital and Washington

In Bowling Green. Caroline county,
Monday good roads rally will be
held at Ii O'Clock. Delegations from
Richmond and Fredericksburg will be
present and q local organization VIII
bS formed to unite with the Rich
roond- Washington division of the
Quebec Miami International Highway
Association.
Tuesday night IN room $50 OF the
gTefferson Hotel the grand movement
to build the highway will be officially
launched. Erch member Of the board
OF directors has pledged himself to
bring ten business men to the meet
ing. Al which the plan TO raise the
necessary funds win be announced.
j. 4. Paimatory has apparently
solved the financial problem con-
fronting the committee and his sug-
gestions have been approved and
adopted. Richmond has only to raise
$4,000 as tts share in the building
Of the highway and after considering
the method outlined by Mr.. Palmatory
the members OF the committee declar-
ed that this would be done easily.
Raising $4,000 for this purpose ID
q fri1ing matter" said John G.. Easley
and Sam Cohen assented.
Meeting on THURSDAY.
Thursday noon a meeting of all the
directors and the various local COM
sraittees formed in Fredericksburg,
Manassas and Bowling Green win be
held In the Chamber OF Commerce,
on the eighth floor Of the Mutual
building. At this meeting the pc
tition OF AiexandriA and Occoauan
win be heard. These two districts
want a place on this highway. They
declare that the distance from Wash
InEfon VIII be shortened greatty and
that the task OF putting the old Teis-
graph pike In repair will be far easier
than building a road by way OF Ma
nassas and Catiett's.
One enferprisang citizen OF Alexaii-
dria has written Secretary r. b. All.
port, of the Richmond w ashington
division, that he will give $1,000 tC
have the highway run through Aiex-
andria and that he will engage to gel
