sSTREET OF IRWINTON:
Friends of Toomsboro School
had the pleasure Wednesday of
listening in on a program from
the Macon radio station. It was
a highly creditable performance
put on by the school.
Mrs B. F. Bloodworth and Mr
and Mrs Frank Eady are at home
in the attractive residence re-
cently completed by Mi Kendall,
of Macon, with building materi
al from the McCook Lumber Co.
Ralph Culpepper, Jr., skipped
the slow years of being a baby.
He is already using real ham
mers and saws and builds what
he savs he will, and wants no
body’s help. It is plumb fasci
nating to watch him.
A number of people from Ir
winton attended the perform
ance of Carolina Tarheels at the
Toomsboro High School audito
rium Tuesday evening and were
delighted with the show.
Saw the ball players practice
Wednesday afternoon. Hubert
Lindsey was pitching-a sparrow
among the cranes —but already
he shows signs of good playing.
Mr Hartley has added some new
foul hazards in his garden in the
form of cross fences. A com
mittee should go and look at him
reproachfully.
In addition to plenty of the
old time fiddle music at the Fid
dlers Convention in the court
house tonight there will be spe
cial features by popular local en
tertainers.
