It is reliably reported that an aeroplane passed over the Union Hill section on Tuesday of last week. Quite a number of people heard the whir of the motor but only a few claim to hnv*? seen it. Most of those who heard it thought it was an automobile, but the auto never came in sight. It was flying north, it is said. A general rain fell in this section Monday afternoon, Monday night and Tuesday. This was the first rain in many weeks, and it brought joy to every heart. There had heon very little ram since crops were planted and many seed were still in the ground. Verv little grass had sprouted either, and now along with cotton and corn a spleudid stand of grass may be expected. The rain came too late to do the grain crop very much good, though it will help some. There was not enough to wet the land thoroughly, but enough to cause seed to germinate. Mr. G. M.

Terry suffers much with rheumatism and it is with difficulty that he gets about. He is also very fond of the splendid shade in his yard. Henrv Graves is perhaps the meanest neighbor he has, for Satur dav when the writer asked him how Mr. Terry and his shade trees were getting along he said he didn't know so much about the shade this spring, but that Mr. Terry was better as there was little work to be done on the farm at that time because of the dry weather.. He stated further that Mr. Terry usually improves during a wet spell or at such times as there is little work tn hp rlnno Hnut mnr>h meaner would you want a man? Teachers forCheraw School.
