FITTERS OF THE FEET
The time has passed when customers would
come in and call for a pair of shoes, size 6 on E
last or D last. •We are fully prepared to
meet and supply the demands of the public in
all sizes, all widths, from tripple “A” lasts to
C and D lasts.
Do you know that not one person in 500
should wear a shoe on an E last? Short wide
shoes are injurious to your feet, causing corns
and bitnions, that often you never get rid of.

sickness to report this week and as
Tom Morton used to say, everything
is lovely and the goose hangs high.
Cotton picking is the order of tke
day out in the sticks. If this fine
spell of weather would continue for
ten days longer cotton would he
almost all open.
We are all looking forward to the
fair and expecting a nice time look
ing at the exhibits and meeting with
our friends from different parts of
the county.
Willie Hegwood and W. Fletcher,
of Concord, were here „ Monday on
business.
Arthur Harmon, of LaFayette,
came out one day last week and
traded W. P. Ilegwood out of his
pair of match horses
Van Wheeler attended the fair at
Bummerville last week.
Prof. Ralph Deck and Crawford
Keown, of LaFayette, passed by our
place of business Sunday night be
tween 11 and 12 o’clock on their wa 7

he passed by but I did not under
stand what he said, but I think he
said that he wanted to get home and
take in his smokehouse for fear it
got frost-bit.
Miss Jamie Moore bad as her
guests Sunday Misses Mattie and
Ora Parker and Clemmie Roberts, of
Cane Creek. Mrs. Nancy Langford

interest in these meetings that were
conducted by Bro. Hall and Jones;
large congregations and fine sing
ing. They have tbe best singing
class at Lee school house that I know
of anywhere in the county. They
are trained to sing without an organ.
There will be lots of moving
around in the sticks this fall; some
coming in and others going oht.
LaFayette Duncan is remodelling
and rebuilding his house. It is

LETTER TO J. W. BALE
LaFayette, Qa.
Dear Sir: Here’s a mail order
paint —there are several such —45
per cent of its solid part is barytes
and whiting, and 35 per cent of its
oil is benzine and water; the rest is
zinc, lead and oil.
Barytes, whiting benzine and wa
ter have nothing to do with paint,
except to make more gallons for
victims to buy at $5 a gallon put
on.
$5 a gallon put-on will buy the
best paint there in the world; here’s
a paint, about half neither pigment
I nor oil, imposed on the unsuspect
! ing.
What is the r»raed>? What is the
victim to 00? D 1 you favor a pure
paint law in your State?
North Dakota has lately passed
such a law; it is worth, we presume,
$5 a year to the average man. W’hat
is wanted, of courae, is paint of such
strength that 10 gallons will do a
10 gallon job and wear a long time.
Devoe is that paint. Bhould counter
|f»i's be put-down by law?
Yours truly,
95 F W DEVOE & CO.
P S Deek & Deck sell our paint.

WOULD MAKE SONS
HONORARY MEMBERS
Columbus, Ga. —When the general
confederate reunion is held at Little
Rock next year the Georgia division
will make the suggestion that steps
be taken looking to the amendment
of the constitution of the organiza
tion so that sons of veterans can be
come hoaorary members. In this
way, it is believed, new life and en
thusiasm will be injected into the
ranks of the sons of Confederate
Veterans, and at the same time the
present camp organizations will be
kept intact, the sons gradually taking
the places of their fathers, so that
when the last of the old soldiers
shall have passed away the camps
will continue in existence, fully or
gauized and in smooth working or
der, with the one mission of keeping
alive the traditions of the confeder
acy.
This step will be taken by the

Next to First Nat. Banh LaFayette, Georgia
Georgia division as a result of action
at the closing session last Thursday,
following addresses by Charles Har
per, of Rome, state commander of
the Sons of Veterans, and John W.
Bale, of LaFa ette, commander of
John R. Gordon camp of the sons of
Veterans it that | lace. Commander
Harper made his annual report to
the veterans association and appeal
ed to them for assistance in organ
izing camps of sons of veterans and
in encouraging the young men to at
tend the meetings.
Mr. Bale, who is solicitor general
of the Rome circuit, made a really
eloquent appeal in behalf of the
sons of veterans, lie urged the
camps of sons of veterans to build
monuments to the women of the
confederacy, for he pointed out that i
when engaged in such laudable un
dertakings as this the enthusiasm of
the members is kept at a high pitch
and they can accomplish wonders.
A resolution was offered and a
opted immediately after Mr. Bales’
peeoh, stating that it was the sense
of the Georgia division that the
necessity for such amendment to the
constitution should be stressed at
the general reunion at Little Rock
next year.
