COVINGTON MILL
GIVES BARBECUE.
Management of This Enterprise
Gives Annual ’Cue to Its
x Employees and Friends.
One of the most delightful barbe¬
cues of the season was that given by
the management of the Covington
Cotton Mill on the third of July to the
employees and a few invited guests.
The day was a pleasant one and the
dinner was one of the finest ever given
by them. After the crowd had fin¬
ished there was plenty left to feed
the same number again.
This mill, though a young one, is
considered one of the fairest in the
state to its employees and the man¬
agement receives a lot of praise from
the people working for them on the
manner which they strive to make
life pleasant for them.
One of the features of the day was
the music furnished for the occasion
by the Porterdale Band. These boys
make good music and their renditions
on that day was simply fine.
Altogether the day was a very en¬
joyable one and those who attended
will wait with impatience the return
of July fourth and another day of
pleasure and recreation.

A BUSINESS EXTENDER.
The Kind of Man For Whom There Is
a Big Demand.
“I am looking for a clerk, a man
with a personality, a man who can do
things and Increase my business. Mon¬
ey Is no Item. I will not take salary
Into consideration. I will pay $100,
$125 or whatever he is worth. 1 want
the man.” That Is what a successful
merchant said some days ago.
Let us pay our respects to the mer¬
chant who Is looking for a clerk of
this kind. A good clerk deserves a
good salary and usually gets It This
matter of good pay for good services
Is the basic principle of the rela ;
tions between employer and employee
While all merchants are not willing to
pay enough salary to their clerks,
there are more merchants who are
glad to pay all a clerk Is worth than
there are clerks who are glad to be
worth all they are paid.
Every village, town and city Is look¬
ing for the man who can “Increase
business." The man who will work
for the interests of his employer is
wanted the world over. The world of
business Is crying out for such men.
for men whom it can trust and In
whom It can place confidence that a
thing will be done when the “boss’ ”
back is turned. This man is wanted
In every store, factory, at every post
and in every great business In the laud.
If you are attempting to avoid re¬
sponsibility and as much work as pos¬
sible you will, unless by great mistake,
escape promotion or Increase in salary.
There are two kinds of clerks, and
only two kinds. One the entire busi¬
ness world Is anxiously searching for,
and the other the entire business
world Is anxiously waiting to get rid
of.—Twin City Commercial Bulletin.
Where Women May Not Pray.
In some parts of the world the wo¬
men are not even allowed to pray.
Certain Hindoo congregations deny
their women this privilege, and among
the Ainus women can pray only In
very rare case§ as the deputies of their
husbands. The natives of Madagascar,
however', stretch a point and permit
their women to intercede with the
powers of evil, but prayer to their
supreme being is strictly a masculine
prerogative.
Expensive.
“Yes.” said the young wife proudly,
"father always gives something expen¬
sive when he makes presents.”
"So 1 discovered when he gave you
away,” rejoined the young husband.—

A Polite Waiter.
“Here, waiter,” exclaiiqed an Irasci¬
ble diner, “this beef yon have given
me Isn’t fit for a pig to eat!”
“Well, sir, don’t eat It then!” the
waiter advised pleasantly. — Londo

Its Gasoline Engine Power
It has supplanted hand-power, wind-power, horse-power and water¬
power on all up-to-date, well managed farms.
No other kind of power is to be considered for farm use or gen¬
eral use.
It so far surpasses any other available power that it is only a ques¬
tion of time when it will be in general use.
It is less expensive, less troublesome and less dangerous than steam
power; so much so, in fact, that gasoline engines are rapidly replacing
the steam engine everywhere.
THE I. H. C. GASOLINE ENGINE is the most practical engine for
farm or general use, because it is designed by experts who know the
requirements of a power for this purpose. It has few working parts,
which insures its being easily understood.
If you are a power user and are in the market for a gasoline engine,
call and let ns demonstrate to you the many advantages of owning aa
I. H. C engine.
