Gibson Mill Consolidation.
On October 18th an cleo ton
was held at Gibson Mill school
house. One of the pollholders
failed to be there, so the election
was cast out. The community
was canvassed a few days ago
and found that the majority of
the people were in favor of con-
solidation. The people were so
anxious for the children to be in
school that they did not wait for
another election to start the
truck. AS the school at Gibson
Mill mad not started and the
committee had failed to get a
teacher. The truck was sent to
Gibson Mill last Wednesday af-
ternoon and started on its route
the following morning with
tWenty-three pupils. Monday
the number had in
creased to thirty-fve.
Election for Boud Issue.
The election was held Satur-
day, Nov. 10. There were l49
registered for the election. There
were 1872 who voted for the issue,
and 3 who voted against it. 10
did not vote at all. The vote
stands 1872 for the bond issue and
II against it.
The issue is twenty year
issue. 1t is for the betterment
of the Ellerbe High School build
ing. The issue calls for $4,000,
and the county will put in $4,000
which will make $4,000. This
is expected to enlarge the build
ing enough to take care of all
the sch ools that are consolidated
with Ellerbe.

er who does run out of corn this
spring will therefore be able to buy
it for less probably than it cost him
to raise his own crop last year.
Somewhat more than the usual
amount of oats from last years crop
remains on the farms. About Is per
cent of last years crop is still IN the
farmers hands compared with is per
cent year ago and Is per cent in
1919.
Less oats have been sold of the
farms than usual and the farmers are
evidently holding and feeding them to
help out the corn situation.
The United States has a big surplus
of oats on the farms compared with
previous years and, like corn, its value
per bushel is less than half of the
1920 value.
Florida farm values have not slump
ed with the. almost countrywide,
drop in values during the past year.
In fact. all grades of plow lands show
a healthy increase for the year and
farm lands as whole, improved and
unimproved, are about the same aver
age price as for year ago. This is
highly satisfactory condition, show
ing that the abnormal period of war
production did not result here in fic-
titious values which must be adjusted
to normal times before satisfactory
agricultural progress can be made.

them.

all the children who are now under
the care of Miss Ethel Dudley who
loves them with love that passeth
understanding. There's a human In
terest story about each one that
brings a lump to the throat and
mist to the eyes, from four-year old
Ralph who has lain for year on a
Bradford frame but never complains,
to 15-year old 1--WE Moy, the Chinese
lad who has the rapt face of an artist
and the smile of a little child as he
lies on his snowy pillows and paints

The world has to be the mother of
most of the children who are within
the walls OF the hospital right now.
For sickness and bad luck have COM

dren of the love and protection Of
mothers and fathers. Some OF these
children have one parent left but the
family circumstances make II impos-
sible for them to give these, their
most helpless ones, the care they
ought to have. And so It gives one
the greatest feeling OF thankfulness
to know that In the Anna 7. Dodge

priceless thing in all the world

night sweats, capricious stomach
In fact these led her to consult the

She was philosophical about 1t. She

plexion good, her health excellent
