For the past fourteen years Mr. H rdaway was a merchant in Carters v'die. and he won and held the confi dence of a large number who delighted to trade with him. He was a gentle man of the old school, and never lost his love for young folks, in whom he took a lively interest at all times. He possessed unusual talents as a writer of unique advertisements, and business messages from his store have been widely read throughout this section, 'ecause of their quaint character’sties. For the past six months his health rid beer failing, and he had suffered greatly. Yet through it all he bore it v h that fortitude and patience which had marked his life. His friends real zed he was a sick man, but the end can*, very unexpectedly, and proved the occasion of many expressions of sincere heartache throughout the city when his demise became generally known last Saturday morning. A native of Warrenton, Warren county Ur. Hardaway came to Carters- j 'die from that town in 197. Since then | he has made his home here.

Thanks to the co-operation of the City Council, the library has been able to maintain the dignity of an institu tion sponsored by a body of representa tive citizens. It has been a wonderful satisfaction to realize that we were not sitting as a beggar at the gates, asking alms of every passer-by, but were part and parcel of the city service. This interest on the part of our City Council has found tangible expression in the im provements made from time to time on our library building. Through the kind, ness of City Manager Cook, who gave the matter his personal supervision, the board rooml was fitted up with shelves and has been fully equipped as a read ing room, where the reader may have (EAST SIDE BIBLE CLASS WON VICTORY Plan Celebration Next Sunday, and Every body Invited to Join in Line of March.
