Parham has placed in my hands for sale his splendid Warehouse Property All of this property except the warehouse site will be divided into lots and sold at public auction on the premises on TUESDAY, MAY Beginning at O'clock, A. M. This property is situated between the Atlantic Coast Line and Norfolk Southern depots, and is in the business of that part of Greenville known as Tobacco Town. It consists of lots fronting on Dickinson ave- which has concrete sidewalks and paved street; lots on Ninth street which is a sand clay street and the main thoroughfare of Tobacco Town- lots fronting en Tenth street which is the broadest street in and leads direct to the Atlantic Coast Line depot. A railroad siding can be ex- tended across Tenth street into this property which makes it very valuable for heavy traffic. To give an idea of the demand for places of business in this locality Higgs Brothers have recently built a brick block containing five handsome stores just in front of this property and they were occupied as soon as finished, and there is now a demand for more. This is a rare opportunity to buy a business site, for this property is absolutely a safe and paying investment. Li i Remember the date of sale, Tuesday, May 1910. L. C.

It means that we are to get two profits from our crops in- stead cf profit from growing them and another from feeding them It means that we are to begin building up our lands instead running them down. It means that we are to use fertilizers more economically and get better results their plication. means that we. are to become businesslike farmers, keeping in closer touch with markets and the business world. And still another advantage which has been little thought of, is that it will make for a greater stability and efficiency in farm labor. Stock raising will demand the services of laborers all the year round, and by affording con- employment, and it better wages than are now paid, we shall a more intelligent and more profitable class of farm labor. It is to be hoped, moreover, that this result will give yet another blow to the old false idea that cheap, gent labor is a help to any community. A laborer who is worth a will you a bigger profit than a labor- who is worth only cents a day, just as surely as a invest- will bring more interest than a cent investment.

Education is not only good for people, but it it good for animals and tables. We call it improving the Irish potato when we increase its value as a food product, but we are only educating the potato. We call it breaking a mule when we go about training the young animal for service, but we are merely educating him. If is good for potatoes and mules, it is better for folks. If we educate everybody, it mean everybody will be equal Not at all. One star differs from another star in glory. It is not for us to say who will be greatest and who will be least, that is for God to determine. But it is our duty to give all an equal chance and then let God choose the greatest from among them. If we educate everybody, some will continue to e and some will continue to split rails. There are big jobs and little jobs, but it should be the full man to his respective sphere. If a thing is worth having it be paid for. and you must pay for before you get them. Payment must made in If any of you ex- to become groat, you must pay the price in labor and self- denial in advance. You cannot obtain the magnificent view from THE NORFOLK SOUTHERN Will.

During the session just closed students were enrolled and per cent of these agreed to teach two years in the public schools, thus obtaining tuition without charge. The de- taught in the school are English, mathematics, his science, pedagogy, household economics, school gov- and music. The mental music department is not free, but this has been departments to be added next session. President Wright expressed gratification at the work of the first session, and appreciation of so many people showing their interest by attending the com- exercises. He also said that during the year of the faculty had made addresses at educational gatherings in this and other States. In addition to the regular two courses of ten weeks each will be conducted for train- teachers for better work in their schools.

The two points set out by the defendant were that it was a gambling contract in futures, and that as the contract had not been made in writing it was not valid. Testimony offered by the plaintiff showed that while the contract had not been made in writing there were several com- witnesses to a verbal con- tract to deliver the cotton. The judgment of the court in favor of the plaintiff on the ground that Carson being a farm- engaged in cultivating cotton he evidently intended to make delivery of the cotton at the time of entering into the agreement, hence it was not a gambling contract; and that the evidence clearly showed the existence of a parole contract even though it was not in writing.
