Prof. Hammock Resig ns.
Prof. A. D. Hammock, Rock¬
dale county’s popular and efficient
school commissioner, Monday ten
dared his resignation to Governor
Terrell as a member of the fnard
of trustees from that county, of
the fifth district agricultural col¬
lege, because he has accepted aj
position as a member of the faculty
of the agricultural school in the i i
(
tenth congressional district, and!
Hon. W. V. Almand. one of Rock
dale’s most enterprising citizens
and a great friend to education,
was appointed a member of the
board of trustees in his place.
Prof. Hammock has served
Rockdale diligently and most ac
ceptably as county school com¬
missioner and will be greatly
missed in matters educational.
He has not yet resigned the eotn
missionership, hence no date has
been set far the election of his sue
cessor.
To Tax Payers.
The law fixed June 20th as the
day for the Tax Receiver’s books
to close, as it is impossible to keep
them open indefinitely and make
out and loot up digests in time.
At present a large number have
failed to make their returns. By
permission the books will remain
open until Saturday night, July 6,
after which no returns can be re¬
ceived. This June 28, ’07.
J. F. Lunbfokd, T. R. N. C.
a lesson in the life of this deceased
young man which should lie an in¬
spiration to the young men of this
section—that of hi* untiring and
tender devotion and love for the
one who gave him birth—Ins now
heart-broken mother. Never have
we known of more perfect love for
cue’s mother.
May the hand of the Great Ruler
rest upon those who survive him—
his noble parents; sister, Miss
Georgia ; brothers, L. L. and W.
O.—in the trying hours occasioned
by the loss of one who was ever
near and dear to them.
Men’s Shoes.
The best being always the
cheapest, we carry the best, so
you can'buy cheaper from us
than elsewhere.

Underwear.

man and every old man to see
us before buying. We can fit

largest. Quality the best.
