October the first was ushered in
with a small fringe of frost adorn¬
ing her attire. It was so light,
however, that we haven’t heard
of any damage to the growing
crops not yet matured.
Mrs. J. W. Henderson has gone
to Kennesaw to attend the bedside
of her daughter, Mrs. M. A.
Cooley, who has been very sick
but now somewhat improved.
At the series of meetings con¬
ducted at the Methodist church
here last week the congregations
enjoyed some splendid sermons.
The meeting was well attended
and much good accomplished.
Seven new members were added to
t’ i church rolls of either this or
some other church of their choice.
They are to be baptized the third
Sunday.
Our marshal has been engaged
in doing some street work this
week which is quite acceptable to
the traveling public—and the most
of us travel in some way.
Monday of next week the fall
term of White superior court con¬
venes. There is quite a good deal
of business on the records to be
taken up and disposed of to the
profit or loss of somebody. A
good attendance is expected since
the weather has been such that
most of the farmers have gotten
well through with their work to
the present time, and as money has
been more plentiful than usual no
doubt the fakir will be on hand to
gather up what he cnn by the
lavish use of an abundance of words
and an acting monkey or negro
from the unwary public.
We are requested to announce
that Rev. Robt. Stuard, the pastor
of the Lumpkin circuit, will fiill
his last appointment at Pleasant
Retreat at it o’clock, and at
Smith’s Chapel the second Sunday
in October; at Pleasant Retreat at
u o’clock, and at Smith’s Chapel
at 2 P. M. All members are re¬
quested to be present and answer
to their names.
Saturday (tomorrow) is the day
set for the Sunday School celebra¬
tion to be held at Loudsville camp¬
ground. The annual celebration
has been held for many, many
years, and has been a great source
of pleasure to those interested in
this good work, and we hope that
it will continue to grow and ex¬
pand in strength until its influence
may be felt in every Sunday School
in the county.
Mrs. June Potts was stricken
with apoplexy Friday of last week
and has been in a critical condition
ever since, having neither spoken
nor moved since she was carried to
bed from near the barn where she
fell when stricken.
Mr. C. F. Saine, the popular
and sunny depot agent Cleveland
has had for a number of years, has
resigned his position, Mr. \. S.
Blackwell, formerly of Meldean,
having occupied his position Tues¬
day. Mr. Saine has been engaged
in the tie and lumber business in
connection with the railroad work
and will now devote all of his time
to his business.
Mr. John E. Mitchell, owner of
Mitchell’s Mountain Ranch Hotel
at Helen, spent a few hours in
town Wednesday.

ville, spent Sunday here at the
home of Mr. II. A. Jarrard, Mrs.

hope that Mr. Ash will find hotel
keeping profitable and pleasant in
Our town.

The B<-rea (Ky.) Citizen makes a
pood point for Berea College in quot¬
ing the words of tin? two opposing can¬
didates for President, both endorsing
trie educational work of this institu¬
tion for the Southern mountains.
It seems both men appeared on the
platform at a meeting in behalf of Be¬
rea College in Washington last win¬
ter. Berea is distinguished for its spe¬
cial adaptations to the needs of the
mountains. Hughes made the follow¬
ing statement: “There is no more
promising -part of America, or one
more in need of aid, than these South¬
ern Highlands, and one’s notions of
education really have to be enlarged
to comprehend all that is embrace)! in
the splendid work of Berea.”
President - Wilson said: "The object
of Berea is to do what America was
Intended to do, to give to people whe
have not had it an opportunity. I
do not sed how anybody can think of
Berea and the work it is doing without
hatching fire.”

Our year begins on August 1st of each year and ends on July
31 st of the next year.
Last year we sold 149 Ford cars. Our estimate was 173 Ford
Cars.
Our estimate this year is only 132 Ford Cars, We never get
over 90 per cent of our estimate. We have already sold and delivered
20 Ford Cars on the new estimate.
We would have sold 103 more cars last year could we have
gotten them. This year cars are scarcer than ever. The demand
for Ford Cars is almost twice as great this year as last.
You can see where this is leading us! We may be able to get
cars this winter, but we must have orders for same in advance.
Take warning and if you intend to buy a Ford next summer have
it delivered this winter. This is no idle talk. We want to sell them
worse than you wane to buy them, and we know that if we don't
maki our eclivcries between now and spring that we can't get the cars
and will lose the sales,
