Spend those ^ten minutes a ,week reading the'ADVEkTISEMENTS In this paper. When you do that you know of ill the good things that are offered by our merchants and the people generally; you > will know WHERE you can get the MOST for your money; where you can find r.. buyer for what you hare to. sell, where you can save money on every dollar you spend by knownlg of the best offerings that are made. The ten minutes a week will cost yoo pothing, but the knowledge tku* gained will be of great value to you. \ tt Is ths man. and not tbs plaa, that brings success. - * “m __ _i_ n‘ Making money Is S' good trait.

Sever years apd when the effort was made to begin n county fair at ’ 1 tetboro for Colletoh county ther* were many to predict failure^* - and •here were hut few to lend a helping hand. Hut hacked by a detefmina tion on the part of a few to make it go, there was no failure, and sinc-e then there has been no failure.' Earn succeeding fair has been betfer than the one preceding,, and this*' year is no exception'' Tho t’olleton Coun ty fag- has grown to^be an annual ’vent looked forward to by all the "ople of tho county, and its great est sphere of usefulness has Just been started.
