Messrs. Clarence Pitt, G.C. Collins, Pell Batchelor and Herbert Hamlet motored to Seven Springs last Sunday morning and spent the day at this well-known health resort.

Mr. W.J. Batchelor, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. H.E. Benson and children, spent Sunday in Raleigh, where “Buck” is supervising the work at the Teachers’ Summer School at State College.

The first cotton blossom of the season to reach The Graphic office this morning by master Louis Joyner, son of Mr. L.B. Joyner. Following our usual custom, Louis wins a year’s subscription to county paper.

Mrs. Harry M. Rouse, who has been quite sick for several months at her home in Goldsboro, has sufficiently recovered to permit her a visit to Nashville and is recuperating at the home of her sister, Mrs. M.W. Lincke. Mrs. A.N. Rouse, who has been at the beside of her daughter for several weeks past, returned to the city Tuesday.

The “Jazzers” in attendance upon the “Rocky Mount June Dance” held in that city last Friday night and until day-break Saturday morning, must have been a “jazzy” affair, judging from the appearance of some of the participants passing through Nashville early Saturday morning and the persistency with which they called for ice-water and other cooling beverages.

Miss Christine Lincke, who graduated with high honors from the Goldsboro High School some days ago and who has been residing with her aunt, Mrs. Harry M. Rouse during the term just ended, returned home Tuesday afternoon. Goldsboro has one of the very best schools in the State, the work of the institution and requirements of students completing the course being possibly the highest in the state.

Mr. A.V. Bobbitt of Goldsboro, district manager of warehouses for the Tobacco Cooperative Marketing Association, spent a few hours in Nashville Monday in the interest of the association and looking after matters which come directly under his direction. Mr. Bobbitt expressed himself as being much gratified at the spirit of cooperation being manifested by the business men and citizens of Nashville and the farmers of this section in the success of the Association and the manner in which they have gone about to make Nashville one of the receiving points for the tobacco of members of the Association.
