been any day this year, due to a

roads will be put in the best possible
condition, and given good coat of
oil, so that such a thing as dust will
be practically unknown thereafter

DR.. Frank l.. Keith and his son,
Glenwood, of Flat River, were in town
Tuesday, and favored The Times with
an appreciated call. The Doctor has
recently been through serious OPP
Grafton and slow stages of recovery
at Mullanphy Hospital, the climax of
several years of failing health. But
he is out all right, looking fine, and
says he feels in better shape and
more vigorous than he has felt for
years. His host of friends through
out the county are certainly delight
ed to know that haJslS HBaln fully
equipped for many more years of
usefulness in his profession.
Rev. w. H. DuBose, who has for
the past two years or more been pas
tor of the Presbyterian Church in this
city, resigned such pastorate last Sun
day, leaving Tuesday with his family
for his new work as chaplain of
American troops near Ell Paso, Texas.
This work will keep him mostly out
of-doors, and in that high altitude he
hopes soon to recover his health,
which has not been robust for some
time past. Mrs. DuBose and children
will for the present visit her parents
at Tucumcara, N. NJ, her father hav-
ing recently been stricken with paral-
ysis, and being still in a precarious
condition. During their residence in
Pennington this splendid family made
many friends who regret their de-
parture, but their sincere hope is that
Rev. DuBose will soon regain his nor
NAL health.
