Nicks' Forecasts for July.
The fourth storm ;wiled. regular, Is
eenI1,,1 on the 21/th, covering the 18th
to the 2b ti. We fear that the rainfall
at t his nn.l other central and late July
slot 111 p'1 lois will be scattering and
logit. Very black and blustering
storm eleeuds will almost certainly ap-
pear at the culmination of storm per-
i,sls and phenomenal "water spouts"
may oeeer here and there, but the
general rainfall will be far below the
actual needs of the season. The 20th
to the 22nd will be culminating storm
days. following which look for rising
boo iii. ter and change to some cooler.
The fifth storm period. reactionary, is
rent( .a on the '2,4th. 'Lith and 'frith.

The Lawn Social given on the Main
street Methodist church grounds on
Friday- last by the Indies' Aid of the
church was a pronounced success, al-
though the evening was a little too
cool for an extensive sale of ice creat.,.
A large number of people were pre-
sent and all thoroughly enjoyed them-
selves. Music was furnished by Tony
Vita's Orchestra of London and need-
less to say the selections they played
were excellently rendered and well re-
ceived. The gross proceeds amounted
to about $Olt.

minister who appreciates the editor.
At recent editorial convention, he
offered the following toast: "To save
an editor from starvation, take his pa-

hirci from bankruptcy, advertise in his
paper liberally. To save hint frnrn des-
