There seems to be a regular "epi.
demic" of travelling, visiting, going

George Hester, of Ellington, visit

DR.. L. w. Bullock of South Boston
has returned home after running over
to see his folks for a short while.
Oscar Culbreth, Mrs. Culbreth, and
| children have returned to Durham,
| after spending several days with his
| parents, Mr.. and Mrs. j. r. Cuibreth
| on Route A. M
Miss Mavoureen Daniel has return
J ed to Richmond after coming over
| here and staying at her home for a
whole week. Time does fly as it does
| not seem possible that she has been
working in Richmond for the past
five years. 1t seems only short while
ago that she used to spend Sunday
| afternoons with her cousins, the Tai
ley children, next door to us. If Miss
Mavoreen lived in Georgia l woul,!
say she is "as pretty as a peach
! Miss Wilma Badgett told me yes
terday they were planning to leave to-
day for parts unknown, and othe,
places, st. Louis being their final de-
stination. Those making the trip are
her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Joe Bad
gett, her sister, Miss Marie, hel
! fathers sister, Mrs. Younger Morris
1t is at the College of Chiropractic al
st. Louis where James B. Morris and
Edward Badgett, cousins are study
ing. If I mistake not, it is Edwards
second year, and James graduation
year. 4
Besides a lot of hard studying last
fall, Edward was the exponent of the
Big Apple there in St!teLouis where
he taught literally thousands of young
folks that dance craze of the moment
But it would take up whole page
of my paper to tell of the hard worl
and successes of James. Besides being
the leader in high marks in the whole
college. he now is assistant to one O.
the professors. His work has been 81
unusual that he has been taken OF
several tours by heads of the schoo
. to attend big chriropractic conven
tions. They do not have a summe
vacation but teach straight on thrc
ugh the summer. That is why thei
folks are going to visit the boys ;
j I have heard of many kinds o
birthday parties, but I have never be
fore heard of a Four-In-One Party
as is the one to be at Henderson to
night, to which I am invited. Their
! are two sisters and their two niece
celebrating and all of them wer
born within the dates of one calen
der week. The festivities will be gu
lat the home and floral gardens o
Mr.. and Mrs. E. L. Bridgers, in homo
of their sisters and daughters.
There will be birthday cakes will
candles for each one, and games ant
entertainment for those of older
younger, or Indifferent ages. Their
will be served minis, nuts, ice cream
and punch, and sixty or more guest
are expected to be present BY tn
time you read this it will be past, his
tory, just something in "a. person
garden of memory ~ n
The four ladies to be feted are
Mrs. w. r. Parrish and sister, Mis-!
Mamie Bridgers, both of Raleigh; ant
Mrs. r. L. Maxey of Raleigh, and sis
ter, Miss Mamie Lee Bridgers, of Hen
derson.
May each of them live to enjoy
many more happy birthdays.
May each new day be happier thar
the last.
May their future be roster than theil
past;
May. Miss Fortune pass them by, the
4 while,
And Dame Fortune forever on then
smile
May their rose-buds be so large tha'
when
They gather flowers thorns won
prick the skin.
However great their troubles, large OIL
less,
May their troubles drown in seas Of
happiness.
