Mr Ham Burgess, of the Bethel - ?? . i a _ mi j I ection, tens us uiai on inursaay light of last week a storm of wind ,nd hail struck his place and did jeat damage, the hail beating out /hat cr.ops were up and the wind lowing down a lot of fencing.

A change of schedule on the Atmtic Coast Line went into effect iundav, May 15.

A gift that we appreciated no ittle came last Tuesday from our olored friend of by-goae days, 'Uncle Lawyer" McFadden of ' )edar Swamp?a dozen nice fresh ggs This kindly, thoughtful old riend brought us the little reminder .11 the way here on Memorial Day md we nave received many a preset of greater,intrinsic value that vas no more sincerely appreciated, f all the negroes were like old 'Lawyer," with all his weaknesses tnd failings, there would be no 'race problem" 'to contend with. It has been brought to our attenion that in the report of the pro:eedings of the county executive :ommittee published in The Record >n May 5, it was stated that the issessment for road engineer was ixed by the committee at $20. This was a typographical error; it hould have been $25, which was the imount assessed candidates for road ngineer by the committee, as is hown by the minutes of the ecretary. The error of the type /as overlooked until our attention /as called to it; so bear in mind, andidates, that all who offer for oad engineer must "come across" or $25.00 toward defraying camiaign expenses.
