| september tovwork at the Williams
I Drug Co. store. I asked him TODAY
what Ia might tell the. folks there
Tor MN and heasaid, "tell them 1 am
|. prospecting fine over here" He is
stlli yet un-single, I mean unmarried.
3 u. i. Harmon is another Henderson
man seen. over this, way very often
delivering goods. His son. D. T.. Jr..
married Miss Ada Newell Watkins
VINO is sister of Mrs Lonnie Breed
love OF our city, Ishave never. before
untll~very recently, realized that Hen
derson and Oxford were. so closely
connected in hundreds of ways.
1rSaw Gary Greena'again today, the
Carrier of Route 1, Oxford. He told
me once more that Il was gradually
improving in the subscription bust
ness. Then I told him the first one
OF the Oxford Rural Letter Carriers
TO have one hundred Dispatches on
his Route, that I was going to have
his picture made and put into this
columni y But don't think Gary
would hope to- win, as that would
mean six hundred stops, week on
his route.
Mr.. and Mrs. Clifton Walters
brought their very, young lady. to
town today for the first time to see
the sights of the city. The announce
ment Of Shelba jeans arrival at the
home of her parents was in one. of
the very first columns of this-wlat-
ever you may call it.
Mrs. W.. L. Walker of near Bullock
was taken to the Mcpherson hospi-
tai at Durham today for an opera
ton. We hope she will soon be home
and well again.
Easton Parham tripped over a wire
some days ago but is out once more
though he has, his left arm, which
was broken, in least.
Just learned today that Cousin
Ethel Breedlove at Durham fell and
broke her left arm recently. But I
don't suppose that old saying, s"It
might have been worse" is very much
comfort to any one with a broken
arm.
Cal Wilkins of Route 1, Stem, came
to town this afternoon for mess of
croakers from the market for his sup
per. Said he had truly been work
ing hard. But I don't think there
are as many as one of those eight
Wilkins Brothers who does not really
work. -
w. M. (Unele Willie) Thorp of
Route 4 came over today for the
first time in about couple of weeks
He is the one whose plantation be-
came the home of thirty new addi-
tons one weekend last summer in
Guiding: one calf, five kittens, nine
pigs, and fifteen chickens.
Asked G. r. (Clarence) Davis how
he was getting on with his Gibson
Electric Steel Guitar. Said he was
gradually improving. He has been
taking the Gibson instructions for the
past four months. 1 heard him play
some weeks ago and his music was
not bad.
Andrew Spencer has been raising
broom corn for years and selling
brooms every fall made from broom,
cane. He usually saves his seeds,
but this time something or other hap
pened to them. I saw him with a
package and he said he had gotten
John Perry Hall to order him
quart which he was going to plant.
Little Judy Gholson usually waves
CT AA1N ONCAJ L14A1C Sic TUGS uDLOWu
with her mother. And she will talk
to me as she eats her cone of ice
cream. She has a beautiful, big doll
that her daddy brought her from way
off somewhere last fall, but she al
ways forgets to bring it with her for
me to see, as she has promised to do.
Her daddy, G. D., is brother to w. p.
Gholson, Judy is as sweet and cute as
she can be.
Joe Pruitt wanted to take me to
the minstrel tent show last Monday
night, and I would have liked mighty
much to have gone. But have long
ago learned that you cannot do every
thing nor go every place that you.
would like to do, and where you
would like to go. So Joe did about
a hundred dollars worth of laughing
without the help of Old Nose this
time. And how well I did regret not
going, but writing this takes good
whack at my spare time every night.
So there for that.
Mrs Rudolph Cheatham and
Rudolph, Jr., in town shopping And
Juniors Grandma Cheatham also
along Having come from Vance,

people now live there.
j. J. Moore Of Nelson, Route /, re-
ports that his Mother, Mrs. Rosa
Moore, who has been suffering with
her eye, is improving. J. j. is one of,
the most recent subscribers to this
paper. Although he did not exactly
say so, I suppose that lightwood is
very scarce on his farm, and that he
has to have something to make up
fires with.
Thomas Daniel of Davidson spent
the spring holidays with his parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. A. M. Daniel, at their
home on Coggeshall Street. / Thomas
is truly one of the ones who is Study
ing hard and making use of his time.
This afternoon a dozen or two cars
filled with Duke students passed
through here going north, home for
their spring holidays. That means
also that Miss Lucille Pittard, one of
the Duke goods, will spend several
days with her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
+. L. Pittard, in North Granville.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bob Morgan and twin
sons, Bob and Tom came over shop
ping one day last Tuesday, as Wimpy
says. Bob and Tom ARE about the
same size, but not exactly alike. One
will talk but the other is timid But
