Cant Contract Case

The suit OF A. M. Davidson vs.
CrutchHeld g. Voolfolk 10 the Count
court last week was decided in favoI
OF the defendants.
The decision was rendered on the
clear meaning of the contract, undel
the law. and 1t was not necessary fol
the defence to submit any testimony
in the case.
The report OF this decision which
appeared 10 last weeks issue, wa:
written by the attorney for the
plaintiff. who was suffering from the
sting Of defeat, and 10 the excitement
Of the moment, he got some Of hi.
pipe dreams mixed with the evidence
In the case.
He stated that "proof was offered
to show that the contract had beer
procured from the grower by the
agents representing that the advance
clause was practically a guaranteed
advance"
This SO called "proof" was an un
sworn statement made In court by the
attorney for the plaintiff, along will
some other proof" Of q similar
nature.
The fairminded citizens OF this
community have known Crutchfield s
Voolfolk, and their representatives
and their methods Of doing busines:
too long and too we'll to be misled BY
such assertions.

Many a woman is known by the
Christmas presents she takes back to
be exchanged.
If there is Christmas season in
heaven the department store clerk
will hardly want to go there.
The woman who looks for the price
mark on her present generally gets
mad If she finds it.
A good thing about some Christmas
presents is that they don't last more
than a day or two. HI
People who put of buying things
they really need until after Christmas
hardly ever find them in their stock
