This Young Man Got a Bear
Away Down in little Pike"

tried my level best to get the
young mans name, but failed. No
body seemed to know anything about
his name. Plenty of people knew,
however, that he came from Wilkes
Barre. When he left his city home
he had strong ambition to get a
bear, but he went deer hunting, not
bear hunting, having no faith that a
genuine bear right out in the open
would ever cross his path. While on
the Milford turnpike, not far from
Notch, to his amazement he ran
across a whopping big, black bear.
There was thrill, a hastily aimed
rifle, ringing report, and his bear
ship had got his. The dead bear
weighed 400 pounds and it was de-
cidedly happy young man who re-
turned to his Wilkes-Barre home.
Too bad! Too bad I couldn't get his
name.

just went out to Narrows Hill, only
about a mile from Hawley and got
his deer all right. On Monday two
or three. more were seen right in
the immediate vicinity
Last fall Charley's father, (now
deceased) shot a deer only a short
distance from the Bellmonte Silk
mill.

The New Coal Pockets
Soon to be Built.

Soon TO be Built.
The new coal pockets are to be
built right away. Fred. White and
Frank Stevenson are to have charge
of coal selling. They will inaugur-
ate a new system, abandoning the
long ton of 2240 pounds and selling
by the hundred weight only. The
new pockets will fill a "long-felt
want" and their location will be a
big improvement over the pockets
near the old weigh office.

Claude Watrous Weds
Miss Frances Robinson.
Last Saturday evening Claude
Watrous, Erie engineer, and Miss
Frances Robinson, formerly employ
ed as head clerk in E. L. Sch'ager' S
department store, were married.
They were married in the house
they are occupying as a residence,
and began housekeeping immedi-
ately after the conclusion of the
marriage ceremony. Indeed, they
had previously furnished their new
home, and were all ready to occupy
it, The residence of Mr.. and Mrs
Watrous is on River street, we'll
known as the old Snyder home.
Following out an ancient custom,
the young friends of the newly we'd
ded couple gathered outside the
house and gave the occupants the
benefit of skimmerton; but Mr..
Watrous went out into the night,
spoke a few magic words to the
leaders of the boys, and thereafter
everything was SO still that a man
over in East Hawley heard his
watch tick.

The Boys and Girls Department
of the Western North Carolina Fair
to be held at Asheville in October
will be an innovation in connection
with agricultural fairs in this state.
By reason OF the interesting class

most every imaginable kind of
work to which the country boys
and girls under eighteen years old
can turn their hands. The boys
will have a large list of farm and
garden products, wood carving and
carpentry articles, and sketch
drawings and literary Work as
classes in which they can compete
for prizes. Girls Interested in Gull
nary, needle ana fancy work or
literary efforts will find many at
tractlve things listed to when lney
can turn their sklllIul hands in an
effort to win prizes given for SUI
perlorlty.
The Fair association announces
the inauguration OF this feature OF
its WORK Tor the purpose OF inlereS-
ing the boys ana girls OF Western
North Carolina ana lndenulylng
them more closely with talr WORK,
knowing That their efforts Will con-
tribute to the progress ana develop
ment Of all Communities Ill Wnlcn
this class OF Work Is underl aken.

from different parts of Jackson
county and one class from Saw
nook, in Haywood County.

w. Floyd Cook, preached a very in,
teresting sermon, Rev. A. G. Queen
of Wolf Mountain, delivered the
music4l address which enthusiastic
ally interesting to us people who
were eagerly listening TO the char
ming words which were spoken on
vocal music.
The people of today are deeply
instereSted in singing all over our
entire country a good singing class
can be found.

gan to crowd into old BaISam

much that the singers were lncon-
venient the weather was so hot
