Chickens for Canteen.

The Rockingham Canteen work
ers are desirous of providing the
troop trains passing Hamlet
next Monday with fried chicken,
and are asking the people of
town and county to donate chick
ems for this purpose. If you can
give a chicken, kindly have it
sent to the Everett Hardware
store Saturday, alive.
The soldiers during their long
ride from the Southern camps
to ports of embarkation are fed
mostly on canned goods; imagine
their pleasure and appreciation
if served hot, fried chicken!
True, no Richmond county boy
will likely be on these trains but
just think how you would feel if
YOUR boy were served tempting
chicken by some Canteen work
ers elsewhere, after they had
been car-weary from riding
many miles!
If you can spare a chick, send
it to the store Saturday.

CHANGE IN ROAD WORK
The Two Convict Forces to
be Consolidated. Two
Trucks to be Bought. Road
Supt. w. B. Covington re-
signs.

At a special meeting of the
county commissioners last Mon
day Road Superintendent W. B.
Covington rendered his resigna-
ton, effective August 1st. He
has been Superintendent of the
roads for seven years. The chain
gang system was established six
years ago.
The board decided to make a
change in the road work. AS
soon as the Force No. 2 completes
the present work near Norman,
it will be combined with Force
No. that is now working on the
Hamlet end of the Hamlet-RoCk-
ingham road. At present there
are 7 convicts and three hired
men in the upper squad, and 8
mules; and IA convicts and 10
mules in the lower squad. The
board has decided to sell six OF
the mules, and in their place buy
two motor trucks-a Ford truck
anda heavier two ton truck. The
plan is after the present work is
completed to do no more heavy
work, but use the combined force
for maintenance. With the trucks
the force can be more mobile and
necessary work at widely separ-
ated points can be attended to.

Red Spider on Cotton.

Reports from various points in
the county are to the effect that
the spider pest is damaging cot
ton. Our information is that this
spider appears only in dry wealth
er, and when the present drought
is broken the inroad will be
stopped.
Parts of the county had a fai,
rain the first of the week, but not
enough to greatly benefit corn
which is suffering badly from the
drought.

Passing the Buck.
(Contributedl

The Colonel tells the Major
When he wants something done,
And the Major tells theNCaptian,
And gets him on the run.
The Cap'n thinks it over,
And to be sure an suit,
Passes the buck and baggage
To some shave-tail Second Lieut."
The said Lieutenant ponders;
And strokes his downy jaw,
Then calls his trusty Sergeant,
And to him lays down the law.
The Sergeant calls a Corporal
To see what he can see.
So the Corporal gets a Private,
And the poor damned Privates ME!

Minor T. Hinson, who attended an off.
GERS training camp at Oglethorpe several
months ago, received his commission as
second lieutenant last Friday. Minor is
at camp Mris, N. l., IN the otn ulvislon
Alex Monroe is in the same division
1t. John Hall is also at Camp Mills but
we do not know whether he is in the

three of these have either sailed. or will
embark in few days.

General Pershing says the is every
difference between the soldier who gets
h,irht "hearfn! lAttaro from, homo and
the one who gets gloomy, sorrowful, wall
ing and pessimistic letter. He urges the
home folks to write often to the boys in
France and to write them happy. cheer
full letters. If you have troubles at home
don't write about them to the
boys: they can't help you any at home
and it makes them worry and brood, and
