A Neighbor’s Plan
ONE OF YOUR FRIENDS is quietly build
ing up a snug little fortune. You will be sur
prised some day and wonder how he did it.
But it is a very simple story.
This man does not have a large income. He
has never made a large savings deposit in his
life. Small deposits made every week is the
secret of this mm’s success. His savings ac
count shows a steady climb for years.
The average man fails to win because he is
not willing to make] small savings deposits
and make them as]of possible.
Most any one can':'see the importance of
making a big deposit—but many fail to under
stand the value of the small ones.
Think it over.

BASKET BALL NEWS
The Bamesville Athletic Club de
feated the Forsyth High School team
in a one-sided affair here last Thurs
day night. The final score was 65 to
16. The B. A. C. was in fine condi
tion for the game, and kept the ball
in their territory the biggest portion
of the time. The whole team star
red.
One of the best games that has
been played on the local court this
season was that of Gordon and the
Bamesville Athletic Club last Satur
day night. It was a fast game in
every detail. It looked for a while as
though either team would win the
game, but Gordon managed to get
a small lead in the last half and kept
it. The final score was 29 to 21.
These two teams will play again
some time in the near future, and
promises to be well worth seeing.
The Zebulon High School Boys and
Girls teams played the Gordon Girls
and the Boys Scrub team here last
Tuesday night. Both games were
fast and full of pep. The Gordon
Girls won their game by a 24 to 14
score. The Gordon Boys lost by a
29 to 25 score to Zebulon.
PAY UP WEEK
FOR METHODISTS
Nashville, Tenn., January 30.
Throughout Southern Methodist ter
ritory special periods, known as Pay-
Up week are being observed in the
interest of Centenary collections.
At this time it is expected that every
member of the Methodist church who
made a subscription to the Centenary
of Missions movement will make some
payment on that pledge.
In this work the presiding elders,
pastors, missionary secretaries and
Centenary treasurers are to have
leadership and a statement is to be
given each subscriber and an appeal
made for the payment of the amount
due to date. Owing to depressed
business and financial conditions, it
is said that in many sections the
payments have not been in keeping
with the record made by the Churches
in the matter of subscriptions. Sub
scriptions were made on a five-year
basis and more than one half of the
total subscriptions are now due. An
earnest effort will be made during
the “Pay Up” movement throughout
Southern Methodist territory to bring
all payments up to date. Drs. W. B.
Beauchamp, J. J. Stowe, W. B. Ricks,
.J. S. Chadwick and others who have
made annual conference visitation
report interest in the Centenary still
keen and state that there is every
disposition on the part, of the people
to make good their pledges.
Since, according to the Centenary
plan, ten per cent of .all Centenary
moneys collected is returned to the
annual conferences to be applied to
home mission work, it is expected
that Methodists in this section will
seek to make as good a showing as
possible during mission week. Re
ports from central headquarters at
Nashville, Tenn., indicate that in
many localities the “Pay-Up-Week”
period has been consummated with
gratifying results.

PHONOGRAPH GIVENAW AY
Mr. Elijah Wisebram last Thurs
day gave away the SIOO Master
Phonograph, which he advertised
some time ago as an inducement for
trade. The plan was for everyone
who traded with him to be given a
key with each purchase and one of
the persons holding the key that
would unlock the phonograph would
be given the phonograph.
416 people brought in keys and
tried to unlock it but no one had the
right key. These 416 people were
from six counties. Each person
bringing in a key and failing to un
lock it had his name placed in a box.
When it appeared that the person
holding the key that would unlock
the phonograph would not come in
Mr. Wisebram decided to place all the
names in a box and the tenth name
drawn out would be given the Phono
graph. Mr. Emmett Langford, cash
ier of the Bamesville Bank, drew out
the names and the tenth name was
that of Mrs. B. F. Harris, Route 1,
Bamesville, and she was given the
fine musical instrument.
The drawing occurred last Thurs
day.
