No Clue to Robbers
Who Burned Store

There has been no clue as to tne
identify to the robbers who opened
Mr.. Fields safe at Calyx on Monday
night of last week. and unless de-
tected in an attempt to dispose Of the
registered bonds, they will probably
never be caught,
There is no boubt that the thieves
were expo-G safe4b1leS Slers, as the
safe was opened by manipulating the
combination and was done as well as
if the operator was familiar with Jne
combination.
The entire contents Of the safe was
nut in croker sack and the robbers
stopped their car on Wahaiak creek
bridge four miles south OF the sore
and going down in the woods and hisn
Weeus, sorted the notes papers, etc.
from the bonds, thsn dumped the
former on the ground and left them.
Had there been any breeze during
the progress of the fire Mr.. Field 5
loss would have been much greater,
as there were several large barns,
machine houses, etc, as well as eight
or ten stacks of hay. Had sparks got
ten into the hay, the chances are all
the buildings on the place would have
been destroyed.

MARRIED.

urw.and Phelps and Mss DuVerSn
M, aro5,oaale. daughter OF Mr. Il. I.
McCoruuodale were married MONDAY
night in Columbus, at the Metnod'sI
parsonage, IL .;,,o
This wedding, coming at the time
that if did, was a surprise to the
many friends Of the young couple,
though an eye of interest mad been
upon the progress of the case that
was one of long standing, and un-
swervingly devoted attachment on the
part of the young couple. They, with
a party of friends, motored, Monday
evening, to Columbus. presumably to
enjoy the picture show, land after
this was oven, the two who had more
important business to attend to, eX-
cused themselves from the rest of the
party. and repaired to the parsonage
where the ceremony was performed,
and they returned to their friends,
united.
Miss McCorquodale, who was one
of last years graduates, is a beauti-
full and attractive young lady, with
hosts of friends, all of whom wish for
her all that is good and rich in the
life she has entered into.
Mr.. Phelps, son of R. P. Phelps,
living near Macon, came to Macon sew
eral years ago, with his father, ard
for some time was owner and oper-
ator of a garage in the city. but is
now assisting in the management of
his fathers farm.
All of the best wishes Of the com
munity attend these young people on
the road they are to travel and their
friends predict for them life of sun
shine. as a natural result Of so true
and tried devotion to each other as
has been theirs from a period datirg
back to the groom's earliest appear
ance in Macon.

To Employ County Agent.

The Board Of Supervisors at their
last regular meeting agreed to set
aside the sum Of $1,000 to be used in
procuring of a Farm Demonstration
Agent to fill a long-felt need in the
county. This sum will, Of course be
only the county's contribution to this
cause, the state supplying what more
is required to make up an adequate
salary for such help.
Noxubee has rot had fair trial in
dealing with such a proposition having
had some discouragements along this
line, but the county is needing badly,
just such work, filled by the right
sort Of man. 1t is proposed to OBJ
tain the best that is to be had in this
line-a man who is worthy Of a good
salary, pay him this, and have him
bring the uplift that such a helper
can bring into the agricultural ac-
tiYities of the county.

This is not a particularly modest
