A long suffering public now
rejoices that the carnival has
left the town. It made the early
hours of last Sunday morning
hideous as it wended its way to
the depot. Here's hoping it has
left us never t? return.
If you need a good laugh, see
"Mutt and Jeff," made famous
I by Bud Fisher's cartoons, at the
Opera House Saturday night.
We had a pleasant call yesterday
from our old friend, Mr.F.M.
Lowry, of Taxahaw, who is serving
as a juror this week. Mr.
Lowry is one of the successful
farmers of the county who never
: buys corn, meat and the othmr
necessaries which can be raised
at home. Hence his success as a
; farmer.
