BABY EDNA.

One afternoon Baby Edna was
left alone with grandma. Mama had
gone to the village with papa and
auntie Nell was at school teaching
the children to read and spell
And this very afternoon Baby
Edna took it into her little yellow,
curly head to run away.
Grandma knew Baby Edna very
well.She knew she would run away
if she got chance, but she did
not intend to let her have chance.
So she hung her little pink sun
bonnet high up ON a nail where
Baby Edna could not reach it,
even if she did stand on tiptoe on
chair; then she took off the little
Kid shoes and pretty striped stock
ings
And then she left Baby Edna to
patter around in the cool sitting
room with her bare feet, like wee
white mice, thinging she really coulC
not run away with nothing ON her
tender little bare feet.
But grandma did not know what
Baby Edna really could do. When
she got tired pattering around she
looheu AROUND LOT something else
to do.
She looked longingly at he1
little bonnet which grandma had
hung up SO high, but finding she
could not reach it she went to
the band box and took out grand
mas drab silk go-to-meeting bonnet,
and put it ON her own little head.
Next she took grandma's nice
black SILK shawl out of the lowest
bereau drawer and wrapped it a.
round herself.
Then she went out of the front
door. down the garden path, out
or the gate, and away up the street
to the schoolhouse, where Aunty
Nell was teaching the boys and
girls to read and spell.
People looked at the droll

THE WREN.s THOUGHTS.

THE WREN'S THOUGHTS.
lay beneath an apple tree
With arms serenely folded,
While on the bough in front of ne
A small wren sat and scolded.
The shade was cool the breeze
blew
And set my hammock swaying,
Till, somehow, all at once, | knew
What Jenny Wren was saying.
Go way from here this minute;
don't think such a great big bird
Should think of building in it.
My nest WAS made long time ago,
And there my mate is brooding,
So now I'd really like to know
What right you have intruding.
l s'pose you think your awful wise,
You lazy, stupid giants;
wouldn't care to boast OF size,
With no more skill nor science.
Why don't you sing song, instead
OF dumbly, idly rocking?
And what an awkward nest YOU'VE
made;
It's absolutely shocking.
Go hunt for worms and bugs; nov
do:
I'm sure you soon will need lem.
| sometimes think that such as YOU
Expect us birds to feed 'em.
But there; I've no more time t,
waste
On such a lazy sinner,
En, I m tbun
To find fly for dinner.

The Queen of May and April Fool.

The Queen of May and April Fool
The Queen eff May
One sunny day
Held court in field of daisies;
Her gentlemen
And ladies then
Began to sing her praises.
When there came to the queen
With rogish mien, /.
A figure in garb fantastic.
Twas the April Fool
Serene and cool,
And he said i'm tone bombastic:
To the Queen of May
I've come to say
I'm seeking a position;
And the fair report
OF this famous court
Has excited my ambition.
Would the queen let ME
Her gamekeeper be?
With the merriest games I'd supply
her.
And might she not deign
In her suite to- retain
A Laughter instead of a criero"
Ihe sweet queen smiled
Like a merry child
AS the April Fool addresser her.
"Of USE" said she,
you can never be;
You may stay as my court jester"

NORTHAMPTON
CONTROLS TYPHOID
No Deaths tbi, Year, Only One
Last. People Get Revaccinated

Northampton County leads the
State perhaps in anti-typhoid
work. Two years ago when the
State Board of Health conducted
an anti-typhoid campaign in that
county over 40 percent of the
people took the treatment. In
the four months DR.. F. M.
Register has been health officer
of the county, 4,500 people have
been vaccinated against typhoid
and, he says, cold weather does
not keep them from coming for
it. Recently at Conway he vacci-
mated 600 persons in half day,
and in. another half day at Sea-
board, he vaccinated $50. The
people know that vaccination
does prevent typhoid, and they
are eager to take the treatment
a second time.
Not a single death from typhoid
has occurred in the county this
year, and only one occurred last
year, says DR.. Register. Only
three cases have been reported
to him since August when the
new State quarantine law went
into effect. DR.. Register believes
the county has typhoid under
control and that the people are
going to keep it under control.

COMMUNITY TAKES
FULL BOND QUOTA

The community has again dem
onstrated in practical way its
patriotism by subscribing its
full quota of the Second Liberty
Loan Bonds. The subscription
was underwritten by the Rose
mary Banking & Trust Company
and the First National Bank of
Roanoke Rapids. Large blocks
of the bonds will be taken by
the various manufacturing plants
and a strong campaign is being
launched to get the bonds in the
lands of small investors and
,Sse earners. Plans are being
worked out by both banks enab-
ling bonds to be bought without
any margin at all and paid fer at
rates of $1.00 per week and up.
The new bonds bear AZ, are
non-taxable, absolutely safe, and
beyond doubt the plan outlined
is the best thing in the world
for the man, or child, who wishes
to lay aside a little money for a
rainy day. The bonds themsel-
YES are practically cash, striking
ly demonstrated by the fact that
with one exception all of the
larger merchants have agreed to
take the bonds at face value, plus
accrued interest, on either pur-
chases or accounts.

Mr.. dunn URGES
FOOD CONSERVATION

To the People of Halifax County.
1t is with confidence of your
earnest cooperation that | appeal
to you to do your bit" in the
great campaign for food conser-
walton. This campaign begins on
Saturday, October 9th and ends
on Saturday, November 3rd, dur
ing which TIME it is desired that
every housewife in Halifax Coun-
ty, by signing one of the Pledge
Cards, agree to eliminate waste
in her home in so far as it is pos
sible for her to do so. The cam
paign is nationwide in its scope
and every man, woman, and child
in the United States is asked to
take part. There are no dues to
be collected, nc force is to be in
voked to require you to conserve
your food resources. 1t is a SIM
pie appeal to your patriotism; it
is a simple request of your Gov
ernment for care, thought, econ
omy in consumption of food and
elimination of food waste. The
exigencies of war demand this
much; the people of the country
could hardly be called upon to do
less. Then, too, it is an appeal to
our self-interest. If we are vast
ing ten per cent of our food in
our home, and we can reduce
this waste to'fve per cent, we
are the gamers by just that much.
1t may be just a little that you
can save teaspoonfuls, slices,
scraps, and yet it is this multi.
plication of such minute quaint.
ties as these by 10, ,000,00 peo.
pie and by 365 days that will
save the world.
Committees have been appoint
ed and are actively at work ir
every town and school district ir
the County. If the Committee ha;
not called upon you, will yol
not call upon the Committee anC
lend your aid in this great move
ment? Are you not willing to deny
yourself something? Can you mo-
save some waste? Is not your
life and freedom worth this ser
vice? Are you not willing to d.
this much for your soldiers
somewhere in France?"
Respectfully,
Raymond C. Dunn,
Food Administrator
for Halifax County
