L.G. Clowdus, of Allgood, was painfully hurt one day last week when he
was struck by a street car in Birmingham while crossing First Avenue
and
Twenty-fifth Street. He was carried to a hospital where his wounds were
dressed. He is said to be doing well and will be able to return home in
a few days.

We Have Changed Our Way of Selling Goods
Will in the future sell strictly for cash, barter or farm products in
this way we can sell cheaper, as we will have no bookkeeping to do--if
we help anyone we will loan them money and let them pay us cash for
goods. Please don't ask us to charge anything, as we don't keep any
books. In this way we can sell goods with less expense and you get the
benefit of it.

Barn Burned
Wm. Z. McGowan, who resides on Blount Highland, had the misfortune to
lose his barn by fire Thursday night. A one-horse wagon, a lot of hay
and other feed stuff, quite a number of chickens and one calf were
consumed. Loss about $600.00 It is thought probably some boys dropped a
cigarette in the hay, as, it is said, they had been going there to get
sorgham cain to "chew."

L.J. Franklin, who is in a Birmingham infirmary, where he had his leg
amputated, is reported as doing reasonably well.

A.A. Fendley and wife carried their six weeks-old infant to a
Birmingham
infirmary this week for an operation. The operation was performed and
the little one is getting along nicely.
