of his brother. Rev. < Scorge R. Pad :

to see him.
Rev. and Mrs. George P. Pad rick
went to Milltown Wednesday to
be present at the nuptials of hei
sister. Miss Lizzie Patten and Dr
Burch, which occurred in the eve
ning.
In obedience to the request of
the government food adminis
tration Pearson people promptly
put in force the order not to serve
cold drinks with crushed or crack
ed ice in the glasses. They made
it effective last Saturday.
The editor has been compli
mented by Mr. L. A. Hargreaves
with a 12 pound sack of flour,
ground from wheat grown by him
four miles north of the city, and
ground into flour at the <(cilia flour
mill. It is a very superior article.
The Pearson Home Guards are
show ing marked improvement in j
drilling, and are enthusiastic over
the prospect of being mustered j
into the State service. While the j
company has more than the mini
mum number of enlisted men re
quired, it is greatly desired that :t
be recruited up u> Si men, tlx*
maximum number.
The Tribune acknowledges a
pleasant visit from Hon. Jonathan
O'Steen, of the Mora District. He
is a splendid farmer and a member
of the county democratic executive
committee, elected by the people
under the new law. He left his
name, and a piece of money to pay
for the Tribune being sent to his
family. He says the Tribune i>
the best newspaper in the county
notwithstanding it is not so large
as the others. The editor appreci
ates the compliment very much.
Next Sunday morning, at to
o'clock, Mrs. J. 1!, White will he
baptized into the fellowship of the
Rearson Baptist church. The or
dinance will be administrated by
Pastor \\ illiams at the usual place
in Red Kluti creek near the Mon
erief home.
■Hr. .1. B. Mills, of the O'Berry
neighlxii hood was in the city
Saturday afternoon and reports
good crop prospects. Says they
have some cotton boll weevils, but
(hey are using their best efforts to
suppress i hem and believes some
cotton will be made.
Mr. J. C. Ad ams who lives on
the northern outskirts of Uu- city,
sent the Tribune word Tuesday
morning that his first watermelon
of the season would be served that
day for . dinner. Within two
weeks watermelons, muKkmelons
and canteloupcs will be plentiful
on the market.
The Tribune regrets to learn of
the partial paralysis of Mrs. Mer
cer, wife of Mr. Charlie Mercer
who lives on the Mrs. W. T. Dick
erson place, one and a half miles
north of town. She was stricken
with this terrible trouble on Fri
day of last week. Trust she will
soon be bettor.
An exchange suggests that
“Nothing adds more to the attract
iveness of a town than newly pain
ted residences, neat fences, good
sidewalks, clean streets and alleys,
and withal a goodly number of
shade trees and ornamental shrub
bery and flowers in your yards,
it is indicative of refinement, cul
ture, good' taste and thrift."
The editor attended services at
St. Marys Chftpel Sunday morning,
it being the occasion of the ordin
ation of Mr. David Weathers as a
Deacon of that church. The pres
bytery was composed of the pastor,
Elders W. J. Tyson and A. W.
Clements and Deacon Lovett
Harrell. The sermon and prayer
x\;i" by Elder Tyson, while the
charge, and presentation of the
Bible was by the pastor, Elder .1.
It. Thigpen. The charge to the
! church was omitted, 'the new
1 Deacon is a man of strong charac
; ter. generous impulses, a lover of
Died and humanity, lie measures
i up to the qualifications of a Dea
con,' and will adorn the office to
the glory of God and the upbuild
ing of His church.
PEARSON TRIBUNE, JUNE 14, 1918
Red Cross Great Work.
Dear Mr. Editor:
1 am on my feet to suggest that
farmers who bring melons and
cantaloupes to market, sell tin*
first load to the best advantage
and, donate the money to the Red
Cross of Atkinson county. Can 1
gel a second!
If there is any biggest side of
war it's the Red Cross. If there
is any best side, it s the Red Cross.
Let's give the boys the price of
a melon since they have none in
camps.
K. M. I'.UEORD.

nesses and death of my dear

Prevent Hog Cholera.
The B. A. Thomas ilog I’owdcr
inis a record of 05 per cent, euros
of Hog Cholera. II you fet'd your
hogs as directed, you need never
fear hog cholera nor any oilier hog
disease. And the directions are
very simple, just about what you
are doing, plus a few cents worth
of B. A. Thomas' Hog Powder in
1 he Iced t wice a week.
Usually, though. Cholera gets in
before we know it. Then it re
quires close attention to each hog
—each hog must lie dosed —and if
you will dose them as directed, you
will save belter than 90 percent.
If you don’t, the B. A. Thomas
medicine costs you nothing. We —
not some distant manufacturer —
pay your money hack. For sale by
Pearson Hardware Store. Pear

The eclipse of the sun Saturday
afternoon was marred by the in
tervention of cirro-euimilu.s clouds.
However if was sufficient ly visible
to illustrate a total eclipse of the
sun, and many of our people were
interested observers of the trails
it.ion. It will lie eighteen years
before the recurrence of this as
tronomical phenomena and then,
perhaps, at a different hour of the
day. its previous occurence was
