From Days Gone By December 19,1912

December 19, 1912.
   On Friday December 20th, Warthen College will close for the holidays. The Fall Term, thus far, has been one without any serious interferances to the work of the school, while there has been much sickness over the county, and particularly in some of the schools. The splendid health record of this institution has been maintained.
   Warthen College, with the departments of literary, commercial, musical, expression and physical culture and normal training, all under capable instructors, is offering a great opportunity to the boys and girls of this section.
   Cox & Tanner is taking orders for cakes and Christmas fruits, and they have stuffed mangoes and dill pickles. J. W. Brinson & Son are exhibiting a beautiful line of Christmas goods in all grades. The Wrightsville Drug Company, S. M. Johnson, proprietor have sent out with their compliments, beautiful and artistic calenders for 1913.
   C. H. Marks of Hillsboro, Georgia has pure Berkshire pigs, $5 each and pure Poland China pigs, $10 each. Lord & Snider have opened a store in the old Chronicle office and have a complete line of fruits, nuts and candies, prices reasonable and you get prompt attention. H. G. Everitt is representing a company that makes only the highest grade Georgia marble tombstones.
   Wrightsville Furniture Company is having a forced sale and make no mistake. Their entire $25,000 stock of furniture and furnishings at manufacturers wholesale costs. This is the biggest sacrifice sale ever pulled off in Wrightsville. Nothing charged to anyone during this sale, ten days only.
