GUMPTION ON THE FARM

Don't put off till spring any out
side work that can be done now
Clean up the garden, haul out man
ure, and when possible push the
blowing before SLOW flies.
Keep wide paths Shoveled to every
outtuilding. Help to open the roads
when heavy snow drift them,
whether you are called out by the
pathmaSter or not. See that the
stock is sheltered from the cold every
day and every night.
While waiting imratiently for the
state to repair that mud-hole, wash
out or other bad place in lhe high
way, wouldn't it be a good idea to
take few hours off and fix it your.
self If every farmer spent a few
hours, occasionally, working on the
road, our highways would soon show
a decided Improvement. Let uSnot
only talk good roadS-let us work

of deeds, and certainly for the first
time since Roy Jones has been is
suing marriage licenses, two licenses
were given by him last week, one
each to mother and to her son.
The mother appeared IN person with
her bridegroom for their license, and
at the same time she procured one
for the marriage of her son.
Both marriages occurred on the
same day and in High Point. The
mother was Mrs. Flora Cook, and
she was married to Calvin A. Wag-
ner on Thursday, January 4, before
Rev. A. S. Caldwell. The same
day and but a few hours from his
mothers wedding, Jeter Cook, Just
II, was married to Miss Hattie Hay
worth before N. w BeeSon, mag
