The Harriman stone road work is moving right along. They have the coarse stone on about three quarters of a mile, but owing to the hot weather it was too hard on the teams to put in more than two thirds time each day. The joke is on Uncle Charles Harrington of Virgie. He was here last week on the registration board and and after they got through he went to F. R. Erwin’s store and bought a pair of shoes. He picked l out what he wanted and told Mr. Erwin to lay them aside and when he got ready to go home he would get them. So in due time he came ini and put them on and walked home, about five or six miles. The next morning he discovered he had one black shoe and one tan shoe, so to even up matters he came back the next day and purchased the mates for the ones he had on.
