Auto Tribulations
(Reported)

Rev. B. E. O'Bern and Mrs.
O'Bern had a rather exciting trir
to Plney Forest church and re-
turn last Sunday evening. Mr..
W. +. Horner kindly consented
to take them to the church
where Mr.. O'Bern breaches
every first Sunday evening. But
he had not carried them over
800 yards before his ma
chine refused to go any further.
Mr.. l.. G. Shell came upon the
scene with his little Hupmobile
which is capable of eating dis
tance as quickly as any of them.
He carried them at a good speed
but at all once a Kissing noise was
heard and This machine was out
of commission. Not dishearten-
ed he hurried back to Rose
mary and returned with his auto
truck. The preacher and his wife
arranged themselves in this con-
veyance as best they could. All
went well and they arrived there
at 4 P. M. one hour late.
The folks were still waiting.
The service being over the tired
couple waited in vain for Mr..
car but it was unrepair-
able at that time, 80 a kind
brother hitched up his gentle old
horse and kindly requested that
they make their return trip with
him. A storm was forming in
the northeast. But it did not
worry the driver or the horse,
but with the preacher it was an
other thing.
To the relief of the couple L.
!. Shells little auto truck hove
n sight. They hastily repaired to
he more modern conveyance and
'f they sped toward Rosemary.
The bridges were safely cross
I'd but to the utter amazement of
he pastor the car stopped to run
10 more that evening. They left
he car with the driver and anoth
n friend and they walked to the
tapids where they hired a car
md were rushed to their home
Irriving there just before the
LIQUIDS broke and the rain came
|oWn in torrents.

ROANOKE RAPIDS
NEARS TOP
Emporia Practically Eliminated in
Pennant Race Clinch With
Franklin on Team in
Fine Shape

Roanoke Rapids headed the
League for one day this week il
the boys never get there again
winning three straight games ir
succession. They have pulled
themselves out of the whole re.
markably during the last two
weeks and are now nip and tuck
with Franklin.
Last Fridays game with En-
poria resulted in a blank for the
visitors, Roanoke Rapids piing
up five runs. Barnes pitched a
magnificent game, allowing the
visitors only two hits and fan
ming ten of the twenty-nine men
facing him. His support was
perfect, no errors being charged
up against Roanoke Rapids.
Features of the game were the
batting of Scott, Barnes and
Johnson.
Saturdays game couldn't reach
that of Friday. Emporia scored
a run in the first half of the first
frame on errors. This perform
ance was duplicated by the Rap
ids in their half, the final score
standing at five to three for the
Rapids. Scott's pitching was
uniformly good, Holding was
back on the job at first and both
he and Barrett put up a nifty
in the way of baseball.
Honig's batting was again a fea-
ture of the performance, his bat
tlng average for the season soar
ing up to four hundred. john
sons work at short and Hollo-
mans behind the bat was also
of mention.
Taken as a whole the Roanoke
Rapids team has worked up to
fine shape all around, which was
well proven when they shut out
the Franklin team on their home
grounds Wednesday, Thursdays
game was lost to Franklin, eight
1its being scored off Pace.
Franklin plays here to-day and
tomorrow and the results of
.hese games will possible tell the
ale OF pennant winning.

A strong Aid society of about
seventy five members, divided
into five circles, has been organi-

right to work, and already have
several dollars in the treasury

A Sunbeam Band consisting of
forty five members has been or
ganized, and is flourishing.
A male quartette has been or
ganized and will render select
ions regularly.
Fifteen new members az by

estimates. These reports show that
the longer hauls % market generally
are In cotton states or IN the Rocky
mountain region. The smaller loads
also are in the cotton states. The aver
age size OF wagon load OF cotton Is
three bales, or 1900 pounds. while the
average wagon load OF wheat Is 53.5
bushels, or 1900 pounds.
However, while the size OF the cotton
load is much smaller than that OF the
corn load. the value OF the former Is
greater. The average value of load
Of cotton, based on farm prices Dec
/. 1913. was S1s3: wheat. $40: corn.
S2S.
The bulletin states that wagon hauls
are much shorter this year than 1906.
when the last similar inquiry was
made.
Railroad building" 1t Is stated.
during the past nine years has
brought some farms nearer to shipping
points and markets and has helped to
shorten the average distance hauled
and to increase the average number OF
trips per day.
During the seven years following
1906 more than $1,000 miles OF new
railroad were built. and several thou
sand more miles have been added since
1913. so that there are at least Is per
cent more miles OF steam railroads in
the United States now than In 1905.
I'm addition to this new mileage Of
steam railroads the hauls OF some
farmers have no doubt been shortened
by new freight carrying electric rail-
roads"
The figures indicate a considerable
rise In the average cost per day to the
farmer in hauling his products. How
ever. this higher cost per day is offset
partly or wholly by the larger quaint
ties hauled per day In 1915 compared
with 1906
