An All D5y Current Soon.

The town commissioners at a
meeting Monday night decided to
make a contract with the Crescent
Hosiery Company to furnish the lat
ter with power for at least a period
Of twelve months. This was done
to enable the Light P liant to furnish
day current to al its customers. 1t
was an unusual opportunity for the
town to secure day current and the
commissioners were wise to take ad-
vantage Of it.
We are sure day current will mean
much to the town. 1t will cause a
freer use of electricity by the pres
ent users and will cause many more
houses to be wired. Motors, stoves,
fans, washing machines, sad irons,
etc, will be popular. Day current
will be an incentive to small manu-
featuring plants to locate here and
take the advantage Of cheap and the
best power in existence.
1t is thought that certainly within
sixty days the day current will be
on. A stock of electrical devices
such as are thought will be populf r
will be kept on hand.

Death OF Mrs. Mary Braxt0D.

On the beautiful morning of Feb
ruary Is, 1918, the death angel en-
tered the home Of Mr.. ]. c. Braxten
and took from him his beloved and
aged mother, Mrs. Mary Rraxton.
She was buried on February 10th in
the Baptist cemetery. She was con-
fined to her room for about six
months, and for the last two months
was confined to her bed.
Mrs. Braxton was the daughter
of MI. John Irving. She was born
in Trenton, N. c., in 1928, making
her stay on earth about 80 years.
In 1855 she was married to Mr.. Levi
Braxton.
In early life she made a profession
Of faith and united with the Free
Will Baptist church, of which she
remained a member until about
twenty years ago, when she united
with the Missionary Baptist church,
of which she was a faithful member
until death. When she became un-
able to attend she would always ask
about the church She was a faith
full Christian, a dutiful and loving
mother, and was never tired of
doing things for others. She always
seemed bright and cheerful and bore
her sufferings with Christian pa
tience.
It is very sad to think we will
never hear her voice, never see her
smile again, and there by the fire.
place sits the old arm chair made
vacant forever. But It's not so sad
as if we had no hope, for if we trust
in the Lord and keep his command
ments we have hope Of meeting
her on the bright and golden shore,
where partings shall be no more.
We think it could be truly sad of
her, well done thcu good and
faithful servant, enter thou into the
joys Of thy Lord"
She leaves two sons, Messrs. E. L.
and j. G.. Braxton, and host of
relatives and friends to mourn her
departure.
In the Geld and silent grave
They have laid her down to rest
With the young and old and brave,
She is numbered with the blest.
'Tis sad to give the up in death,
But not our Will be done;
Cold is thy form and still thy breath,
Ard victory thou hast won.
IT'S sad to part with one we love,
And it almost breaks our hearts,
But we hope to meet in that world
above,
Where We'll never, never part.

DeaIh Of Mf. JustuS Everett.

1t is with sorrow that we announce
the death Of Mr.. Justus Everett,
which sad event occurred at his
home near Palmyra, in Martin coun-
ty, Thursday night, March 9Th, after
an ilina-s ia5ting less than forty
eight kou,s. Physicians were con-
stantly at his bedside and all was
done that could be done, but it
seems that his time had come and
his Lord called him to come up
higher.
Mr.. Everett was about sixty-three
years old and was a large and pros
porous farmer. He had for years
been a member of the Primitive
Baptist church and the burial took
place at the home of Mr.. Julius Pur-
Wis, near Spring Green church Sat-
urday afternoon, attended by a
large concourse Of neighbors and
friends.
Mr.. Everett leaves large family
of children by his first marriage,
and a widow by his second marriage.
Two Of his sons, Messrs. S. Justus
Everett, Of Greenyiile, and R. Oscar
Everett, of Durham, are among the
best known young attorneys of the
State.
To all the bereaved family we ex-
tend deep sympathy.

RECOMMENDS DYKES.

Through the efforts Of Judge Wal
ter Clark and others, Mr.. D. L..
Yarnell, a United States drainage
engineer, came to this section about
the first Of January and in company
with Mr.. Chas. j. Shields rode
horse back over the slope of country
from Tom Fenner's to that of Judge
Clark's, with view of dyking the
river and draining the thousands of
acres Of fertile land that is now sub
ject to overflow.
MIR. Yarnell made his report some
days ago and with it he furnished a
map that shows in a crude way the
territory that will be so greatly ben
Gifted. Mr.. Yarnell strongly re-
commends that this work be done,
and suggests that the territory be
cut into drainage districts and these
districts be protected by levee
along the river and canals be cut to
drain the land and when this is done
it will open up a fine body Of farm
ing land.
We have talked with several of
the farmers to be benefited and
they seem to be in favor Of going
ahead with the work, but it is ne
cessary for every land owner to be
benefited by this, to join and CO.
operate and then the drainage and
dyking can be done in a successful
manner. The understanding is that
the government will send competent
men here to supervise the work and
pay for same, and only requires the
land owners to assess their land
certain amount for a number of
years to pay for the work, each man
paying according to the way he is
benefited. The question is, are the
land owners willing to do their part.
Friends, do Il OF let this opportunity
pass to get this needed work done in
a way that you can derive the most
benefit.
We note some Of the larger farms
to be especially benefited by this
dyking and drainage proposition.
First we will start with the Tom
Fenner farm, Lii Smith, AIbertson,
Hopkins, Tom Hancock, Chas. H.
Smith, Ed. Smith, Walter Hancock,
Bob. Hancock, Mrs. O. J. Moore,
Graf1in, Judge Walter Clark and

cannot recall. 1t is said that if the
above farms were we'll drained, and
