Parkton, Sept. 18—The following are the names of the school truck drivers for Parkton schools: Bennie Blount, Benney Culbreth, Raymon [Raymond?] Canady, and Alton Campbell. All reliable, experienced and good drivers, of whom we are all mighty proud.
That was some baseball game Saturday when bjck Horn when to White Oak and played a no-hit, no-run game, Patterson pitching for B. H. This was the last game of the season. It will be remembered that the game the week previous resulted in a tie, but the last game not one was able to reach the first sack. Buck Horn has made a most wonderful record for 1926, made up of the young boys of the community. While some of the members are married men, yet they are quite young.
Hughes and Parnell are making some needed improvements to their mercantile establishment by adding an up-to-date hardware department.
How about our local cotton market for 1926? The writer can testify that the Parkton cotton market is one of the best in the county, or at least that’s its reputation, and we have a number of good honest-to-goodness local citizens who have been paying more for their cotton than they can get on the Fayetteville market, and because we know from experience and I feel like the public should know it. And the writer is getting no pay for saying it, and it is unsolicited by the local buyers.
The North Carolina Sacred orchestra will play at Glendale Consolidated school building in Cumberland county. All members are requested to take notice on the fourth Sunday evening at 3 o’clock.
Mrs. l. M. Powell, our door neighbor, is enjoying her vacatin at Chimney Rock with her brother, Mr. L. A. Ferguson.
