A striking example of the sue
cess in life that may be attained
by a person willing to work and
stick to his guns is very wildly
portrayed by w. B. (Willie)
Buffkin, resident of the rural
area out of Chadbourn, a few
miles South of the Klondyke
town.
The newsman's first meeting
of farmer Buffkin dates back
about a quarter century when he
was met on the Chadbourr
strawberry market with large
load of as fine Klondykes as
ever offered on that market OF
any other berry market. Our
first impressions were very fav.
orable and through the years
that friendship has increased
from time to time.
Ask anyone anywhere about
Willie Buffkin and here's the
answer: Hes alright: one OF
the finest fellows you ever saw:
You can depend on willie Buff
kin: A good man etc etc.
Willie Buffkin is known and
recognized as community lead
err. He takes part in everything
launched for the purpose of up,
building or promoting tn e
schools, churches, or anything
for the improvement of his coun'
tv or community Columbus coun'
tv is much the richer for having
meen of the type of Willie Buff
kin as one of her residents.
A substantial farmer, a good
business man, a friend to man
kind very mildly describes farm,
err Buffkin.

When VeSuvluS broke loose 1878
years ago, there were many people
in the Forum, a kind Of market
place, in Pompeii. These persons
saw huge black cloud gather over
the crater, and wondered what II
meant.
Within a few minutes there was
a patter of hard objects, something
like the falling of hail. The objects
were pumice stones.
The people started running to
shelter. Many of them raced for
their homes. They wanted to be
with their families during this time
Of danger.
At first there was hope that the
falling Of cinders would stop. but
it kept on and on. Within a few
hours, the streets and the roofs of
houses were covered with ashes
to a depth of 8 feet.
Some persons said, Lets get out
Of the cityi"
Others felt that the safest place
to be was in their homes.
Most of the 10000 persons in
Pompeii decided to run away.
Many thronged to the edge Of a
bay (now known as the Bay Of
Naples. This bay used to reach
the edge Of Pompeii, but now the
shore Is more than a mile away.

Sonto and the Pirates
By Luerece Hudeins BeoIe
CHAPTER 1.

Once upon a time there was
kingdom called Fairvania. The
King of this country was very sad.
The Queen wept through the days.
All the people were heavy hearted.
The reason for this sorrow was
that the Prince of the land was
sick. So sick, in fact. that there
was no hope of saving his life.
Prince Jonathan was only a
baby-hardly half past one. He
lay pale and shivering in his crib
while the beat of his heart grew
weaker and weaker.
Its a strange Sickness" mur-
INJURED the doctors. I'VE have
never seen its like before. Our
medicines are of no use at ALL"
Tears ran down the Kings
cheeks. II would give my life to
save him!" he groaned.
A strange creature with a
pointed head popped past the
weeping guards at the door. He
scurried up to the King.
Il can save your son." wheezed
the creature. !
The King gasped. who are
you?"
Il am Lubi from the land east
Of the rising sun. For 10000
pieces of gold I will make him
WELL"
Il have not so much gold" cried
the King. But I shall pay you
though it take me a lifetime"
Pay me in full before 10 years
are gone" said Lubi. "Or give me
your kingdom and all your peo-
pile"
Agreed" whispered the King,
hardly hearing the strangers
words. Prince Jonathan gasped
for breath and the King begged
Luibi, Save him if you can"
Luibi pulled his cloak over his
head and covered himself and the
child so that none could see what
he did. Moments later he with
drew the cloak. From that instant
Prince Jonathan began to recover.
Have my gold in 10 years
time" said Lubi. "Or shall bring
sorrow to ALL"
But no one heard him or saw
him go. For all were bent above
the Prince rejoicing in his return
to life.
The next 10 years were happy
ones in Fairvania. Prince Jona-
than grew to be fairhaired boy
with brave heart and a cheerful
spirit.
