We trust Char lie will make a good mark in the army. “Pat” you just keep that lit tle roll for Mrs. Pat. and the lit tle Patsies. Cotton is late but if the frost stays away a few weeks it will be pretty good. It is about time to begin to sow those oats Mr. man. Are you going to do it? Mr. Henry Hardin, who has been seriously sick of typhoid fever, we are glad to say is somewhat improved at this writing. Mr. Baker says the war will end when we win it. so we still don't know how many days and months it will be until it closes.

James, who was hurt by a mule about three weeks ago died Wednesday night and was buried Thursday at the Jame3 graveyard, Rev. J. H. Couch conducting the fu neral at the home.

We know she will make good for she is a very bright pupil. She is a daughter of Rev. and Mrs. L. H. Burgess. I This is the last issue till our fair, are you coming and bring something to show or are you going to stay away and try to keep others away? Every teach er who is interested in theedu cation of our boys and girls, every parent who is interested in his children and in fact, ev ery one who has any interest in himself should come. Let us make this a success and -we can do it with your help. Next year we hope to have a county fair in addition to our school fair. Will you be one to help us? Don’t forget the date, Oct, 9th Paw.

Our year begins on August Ist of each year and ends on July 31st of the next year. Last year we sold 93 Ford Cars. Our estimate was 114 Ford Cars. Our estimate this year is only 96 Ford cars. We never get over 90 percent of our estimate. We have already sold and delivered 12 Ford cars on new es timate. We would have sold 50 more cars last year could we have gotten them. This year cars are scarcer than ever. The demand for cars is almost twice as great this year as last. You can see where this is leading us to! We may be able to get cars this winter, but we must have the orders for same in advance. Take warning and if you intend to buy a Ford car next summer have it delivered this winter. This is no idle talk. We want to sell them worse than you want to buy them, and we know that if we don't make our deliveries between now and Spring that we can’t get the cars and will lose tht sales.
