Capt. N. c.. Evans.

The race for the house in this
county is now three cornered one,
the third candidate being Capt. N.
G.. Evans who makes his formal an
rouncement this week. Capt. Evans
is not asking for a place about which
he knows nothing, as he has in the
past served as a member of the
house of representatives four years
from this county. He is fully capa-
BILE of representing the people with
credit to himself and with honor to
the county. In due season he will
swing around the county and meet
the people face-to-face, letting them
know what his platform is. This
much OF it we can announce in ad-
vance: he stands four square for
Woodrow Wilson against Hughes,

The superintendent of the Cits-
del has just received telegram
from the adjutant general of the
army stating that as a result of the
inspection of the Citadel in April it
was again placed on the list of dis.
tinguished colleges by the war de-
partment. 1t also asked for the
name of the cadet of the graduating
class designated for the commission
in the army. Col. Bond designated
Cadet Francis Wilkerson Sheppard,
captain of B company of Edgetield.
The appointment is well deserved.
Both Col. Bond, the superintendent
of the Citadel, and Col. Carey, the
army officer who is commandant,
are much grati6ed over the telegram
received.
This is the ninth consecutive time
the Citadel has been on the list, and
it is we'll understood that this time
it stands close to the top, if not at
that envied position, Col. Carey
said that he was especially gratitied,
because the Citadel was now COM
peting with all the great UNIVERSE
ties, such as Harvard and Prince
ton, who have military departments,
and who are striving to get On the

Parksville's Corn Prizes.

The Parksville fair and welfare
association determined to add to the
wealth of the district, thought that
the best way to do 80 was to make
the farmers all work a little harder
and each become richer. So as an in
ducement it has offered prizes for
the biggest yield ssof corn grown to
the acre in the Parksville school
district.
If results are the same as when
The Advertiser offered prizes few
years ago many more will benefit
than the prize winners and be per-
manently stimulated to better farm
ing and bigger barns. A first prize
of ten dollars is to be given to the
man or boy growing the most corn
10 the acre and a second prize to
the one growing the second largest
amount.
Responsible and disinterested per-
sons will be appointed in the fall by
the president Of the association Mr..
w. NJ. Robertson to witness the
measuring of the land and of the
corn.
A prize of five dollars is offered
for the best ten ears of corn exhib.
tied at the corn show to be held in
the fall. 1t is confidently hoped that
Parksville will revive its fair this
fall in connection with the Chautau-
qua.
