Streets have been pav ed, and a sewer system installed. There is promise of greater activ ity next year -and this is what is expected of the chief city in a county that is noted for great production. Every year will see a better county, and better towns within its boundaries. The many special road meetings called for voting for or against special taxes for rock roads speaks well for the crystallization of sentiment for better high ways. Good roads are the cry ing necessity of Washington County the best county in the best state in the union and it looks as though we shall have a beginning that is a beginning, INCREASES STOCK The Commercial Bank of Hills boro will increase its capital stock to $50,000 after January 1, 1912, and within 30 days there after expects to occupy its new quarters.

The domestic cat is a paradox, for no domesticated quadruped Is as near to the wild state. In some degree every cat feels the call to freedom, al though every cat may uot understand it sufficiently .to obey it. Sometimes it comes early, sometimes late in life, but it comes to every cat.
