A man offered me a fine, 8-cylinder automo bile last week for only $988.99 laid down. Looks ike I ought to buy it— as it will require only 224,000 pounds of cotton seed to pay for it.

Mahaffey entertained very delightfully Saturday morning in celebration of the birthdays of her two little daughters, Millie and Rose, when about 35 littl e girls and boys gathered at her home on upper Main Street. After several contests and games, the hostess served refresh ments, consisting of Sno-Jo’s and sweet crackers. These popular little girls weie the recipients of numerous gifts. HOSTESS TO METHODIST YOUNG PEOPLE. M rs. William E. Mc'Nab was hostess •n last Friday evening to the young people of the local Methodi‘1 Church. About twenty-five of the younger set were present and a delightful evening I think it’s a fine spirit our folks are showing in respect to wear ing and using cotton. My wife is darning all my 1927 socks with cottort thread, a nd patching the britches of the entire family with cotton patches, that.is, where th e patches won’t show except at night. I wish there was some quick way to get rid of about 24,000,000 bales of cotton. Giving it to the poor won’t help—as the p:cr are making another big crop this year (themselve-) and will soon have plenty of it again. Our government ought to use mor e of it in manufacturing its red tape. Cotton is more useful than lots cf folk s think it is. It is fine for paying the salaries of . our office holders thru the tax medium. It re quires only 68 two-horse tenant farmers to produce enough cotton in 12 months to pay a senator for 6 months. And some cf these tenant was spent. Several unique contests farmers wculd mak e just as good were entered into and prizes won by M iss Margaret Free, Mrs. Robert Conner, respectively. The hostess served fruit punch end Crosland, Bates Hagooi and Newman sandwiches. senators as some senators do, but they have to farm, don’t-cher know? -®—•- MRS.

And while I feel that we are slightly bent, if not plumb broke, we ar e better off than many sections. I decided before get ting back home—that one place is as good as another, and if there’s any difference, iC’s a darned sight better. Note: We found two towns that had the sam e price for gas and oil; that was unusual. (The third spasm of this 4-day vacation will follow next week.)

Our scccnd day away from home was net so eventful as we anticipated The hotel that we stopped at had ad vertised it- rcoms far and near in this manner: “Room with bath, $2.00.” We got one of those 2-dollar rooms, but he charged us 6-dcllar s for it— you see, he had 2-singte beds in it, and having been married for nearly 20 yeais, we didn’t object to single beds. WS^vent to the picture show They had just reduced their price? from-75 cent. 5 to 50 cents, thus get ting down to within 25 cents of what would be right. If me and niy folks had not of been victims, the place would have looked much emptier. As it was, the house was about ?ne-third full. Hoover prosperity adhrission fees would .have filled that place.

It was cold when we left home, but just as soon a s we landed in the “Sunshine State,” r I had to invest in a pair of heavies.
