County Convention Saturday.
The county convention will be call-ed
to order in the Grand opera house,
in this city. Saturday at 11 o'clock.
Aside from confirming the nomina-tions
made by the precinct primaries,
the convention will nominate a candi-date
for county treasurer, Mr. Weath-
*nj having received a sufficient num-ber
of votes to prevent either Mr.
McNairy or Mr. .McKinney from re-ceiving
the nomination in the prima-ries.
Every loyal Guilford county Demo-crat
Who may attend the convention
will have a voice in the proceedings,
and it is expected that the convention
will be one of the largest held in this
county in several years.
A special attraction will be the
presence of ex-Governor Aycock, who
will make a speech of interest and
inspiration to all Democrats. As a
public speaker Mr. Aycock has no
superior in North Carolina. He does
not come to Guilford as a candidate
for any office or in behalf of any
candidate, but to make a Democratic
speech to Democrats. It has not
been decided whether he will speak
before or after the business of the
convention shall have been transact-ed.

A committee from the Central Car-olina

the board and asked that a pro-hibitive
tax be placed upon the sale
of toy whips during tne ap-proaching
fair. in the past the
sale of these whips has proven
a great nuisance, and the au-thorities
desire to prevent it this
year. The board placed a tax of
1250 on any one offering whips for
sale within a radius of a half mile
from the fair grounds.

Challenge for a Joint Canvass.
On account of bis physical condi-tion,
J. K. Osborne was exempted
from road duty.
A committee from the Chamber of
Commerce asked that the county
make an appropriation of $500 a year
to aid in the work of the organiza-tion.
The board deferred final ac-tion
on the matter.
Citizens of the community asked
that the board arrange for better
drainage facilities on Horsepen creek,
in the vicinity of Guilford College. It
was decided to have the district sur-veyed
and an estimate made of the
fcost of the necessary work, the sur-veyor
to submit a report at the next
meeting of the board.
Committees from the Chamber of
Commerce, the Greensboro Retail Mer-chants'
Association and the Tobacco
Board of Trade joined a number of
citizens of the community in a re-quest
that the public road leading
from Summerfield to the Rockingham
county line be macadamized. The
board spent considerable time in hear-ing
the matter, but took no action.
A petition for a change of the pub-lic
road leading from Climax to Ju-lian
was granted.
An appropriation of $10 was made
for the road leading from J. J. Bu-sick's
to the county line.
Superintendent Tyson was instruct-ed
to work the public roads- running
through Guilford Battle Ground with
the convict force for a period of time
not to exceed two dayk.
A committee representing the Cen-tral
Carolina Fair Association and
the board of managers of the centen-nial
requested the board to lake ac-tion
to prevent any circus from ex-hibiting
in the county during the fair
and centennial week. The board
adopted a resolution to the effect
that no circus be permitted to give
any performance in the county be-tween
October 1st and 20th.
The board adopted a resolution ex-empting
from the payment of poll
tax all ministers of the gospel en-gaged
in the active work of the min-try
in Guilford county.
The usual appropriation of $50 was
made to the North Carolina Children's
Home Society.

DEATH OF MRS. B. N. SMITH.
THE SOLDIERS ARE COMING.
Mr. T. C. Hoyle. chairman of the
Democratic executive committee of
the Fifth congressional district, has
written Mr. J. T. Benbow, of Win
sto:i-Salem, chairman of the Republi- j
can committee, asking for a Joint can-vass
of the district between Mes;-:;i.
A. L. Brooks and John M. Motley.
the Democratic and Republican can-didates
for Congress. So far he has
received no reply to the communica-tion,
but in Democratic circles it is
not expected that the challenge will
be accepted.
War and Navy Departments to Aid
in Centennial Celebration.
The military feature of the centen-nial
la expected to add greatly to the
success of Greensboro's gala week in
October. In addition to the cavalry
and infantry to be supplied by the
government, the Gate City Guards
and several other companies of the
National Guards will be here and par-ticipate
in parades and sham battles.
Mr. G. S. Bradshaw, president of
the centennial board of managers, is
in receipt of a letter stating that the
secretary of war has issued orders
commanding a troop of the Twefth
cavalry and a company of the Seven-teenth
infantry to report in Greens
boro for the week. The company of
infantry will be accompanied by the
full regimental band.
Through the efforts of Senator
Overman, who, by the way, is mani-festing
a deep interest in the centen-nial
and doing everything in his pow-er
to aid the management, the Navy
department has granted a request
for the loan of a big portr«i)le search-light.
The searchlight will be a
great attraction.
Passed Away Suddenly at Home
Thursday Afternoon.
Mrs. 3. H. Smith, an aged and
well known woman, died suddenly
Thursday afternoon at her home iii
the southern part of the county. She
had not complained of being unwell
and attended to her usual household
duties to the hour of death. The re-mains
were brought to Greensboro,
the former home of the family, and
the funeral held from the home of a
daughter, Mrs. Keeling, on West
Gaston street, Sunday afternoon at
3.30 o'clock. Rev. Melton Clark con-ducted
the service and interment was
made in Greene Hill cemetery.
Mrs. Smith is survived by a hus-band
and the following children: Mrs.
| Emma Keeling, of this city; Mrs. J.
A. Clinard and Mr. J. Glenn Smith,
of Charlotte; Mrs. Jennie Lucas, of
New York; Mrs. Walter Sergeant, of
Washington: Miss Juliet Smith, of
Norfolk; Mr. R. G. Smith, of St.
Louis, and .Mr. Parks H. Smith, of

Just Exactly Right.
"I have used Dr. King's New Life
Pills for several years, and ri ISM them
Just exactly right," says Mr A. A.
Felton, of Harrisville, N. Y. New
Life Pills relieve without the least
discomfort. Best remedy for consti-pation,
biliousness and malaria. 25c

Warning! Warning!
The survey of Guilford county now
being made is for the official county
map and will not be complete before
December 1st. An unscrupulous agent
is trying to palm off cheap state
maps as the map for which this sur-vey
is being made. This is false,
and no one should accept a map
from any agent who does not have
a certificate signed by county offi-cials.
All agents taking orders for
the official map as authorized by the
Board of Education and County Com-missioners
will have these certificates

Rag-Tags Will be There.
Editor Patriot—A worker for Mr.
■I. W. McNairy for county treasurer
said today that nobody but the rag-tags
and bob-tails voted for Weath-erly
or McKinney in the primary.
Maybe, but these same rag-tags and
bob-tails, by which is meant the men
of no influence or standing, will be
on hand at the convention next Sat-urday
and will remember what has
been said.

Might Do an Injustice.
Editor Patriot—The communication
in the Record of yesterday signed by
Mr. W. J. Weatherly is calculated to
do me a great injustice and to prej-udice
the friends of Mr. A. Weatherly
against me. Some one may have
made the remark he referred to, but
I do not know who did so and I was
in no way responsible for same.
Such remarks do not meet with my

IT IS CAPITAL
To watch the sure and steady growth
of one's bank account. The idea of
saving becomes twice as strong when
one has started the little pile oa its
way, knowing that every dollar will
earn interest. If you have not been of
a saving turn, now is your time to
