Special Committee Meeting.

The special committee appoint
ed by the Chamber of Commerce
at its big mass meeting held at
the courthouse Tuesday after
noon to take up the matter of
securing for Henderson the Sea-
board Air Line terminal met i'm
mediately after the adjournment
of the big meeting at the court
house and took up the matter in
hand. After some discussion
plans were outlined looking to
the requirement of tracts of land
not only for the terminal, should
it be located here, but also for
the purpose of providing modern
and conveniently located homes
and building sites for the train
crews and for the shop and cleri-
cal forces. all of whom the peo-
pie of Henderson would most
heartily welcome into their midst.
These houses would be rented at
reasonable rates or sold to the
railroad employees at q moderate
cost.

than it could ever be at or near
Norlina. In constructing the new
cut off by way of Durham, the
main line will run a few miles
North of this place, thus cutting
out Henderson altogether from
the main line of the Seaboard.
1t is threatened to tear up the
Durham and Northern road all
except about five miles next to
Durham. If any or all of these
plans should be carried out, it
will be accepted in Henderson as
a declaration Of war on the part
of the Seaboard, and would of
necessity have to be met here by
the very best and most effective
defensive means that Henderson
could devise. However, some of
our leading manufacturers and
business men still hope that such
an unfortunate and unpleasant
situation may yet be avoided.
The Seaboard Air Line has
been fattening for many years
past on the freight and passenger
traffic of this good town, and in
all that time has done practically
nothing for the town in return,
except that it now proposes to
give us the hardest possible slap
in the face in consideration, it is
supposed, of the heavy revenues
it has been collecting here
through all these years. The
Seaboard now collects, on the
general average, more than one
thousand dollars a day in freight
and passenger revenues in Hen
derson, and in the face Of this
fact continues to meet all re-
quests for improved facilities
and Accommodations here with
unfulflled promises and much
soft soap. Almost any other
town the size and Importance of
Henderson in the State would
have risen up long ago under the
same circumstances and made
it's demands in an effective man
ner. 1t is said that there is no
one in Henderson old enough to
recall a time when anything and
everything the Seaboard ever
asked Of Henderson was not
readily and cheerfully granted.
Probably no railroad in all of
North Carolina ever reaped more
real benefit from the undivided
friendship and patronage of a
town the size of Henderson than
has been the case with the Sea-
board Air Line in this town.
Possibly this fact furnishes US
with at least a clue to the chief
cause of our present troubles
with that road and for its seek
ing to ignore us completely at
this time. Our friendship and
decided preference for the Sea-
board through all these years
may have led it to the conclusion
that Henderson belongs to itany-
| way dllO IL Gall IllcI Ic1OIS u eau
us just as it pleases. 1t will be
a good day for Henderson when
its subserviency to the Seaboard
Air Line ceases to exist, and
when the varied manufacturing
and business interests of this
city begin to make a more liberal
and equal division of their friend
ship and patronage with the Sea-
boards competitor, the Southern
Railway. Wise business men are
coming to see the utter folly of
the past in this matter, and have
already about arrived at the con-
clusion that a more equal divis-
ion of freights between the two
systems will be the only means
of securing the rights and ad-
vantages to which we are justly
entitled.

A WINNER OF MANY PRIZES.
Barred Plymouth Rock Hen Be
longing to Mr.. A. j. Cheek Car
ries Off $500 Cash Prize at
Greensboro

Henderson can, boast of some
of the most successful and noted
poultrymen in the State, who
raise some of the very finest
chickens and other fowls in the
land. But more especially is this
true of fine breeds of chickens.
At almost every big poultry show
in either North Carolina or Vir-
ginia for several years past Hen
derson poultrymen have walked
off with some of the very best
prizes. To such an extent is this
true that Henderson has come to
be known far and near as a win
ner Of fine poultry.
Among this number of success
full and noted poultrymen, Mr..
A. J. Cheek stands squarely to
the front. In fact he has come
to be known and recognized far
and wide as one of the most sue
cessful breeders of fine chickens
in the South and receives numer-
Gus orders and inquiries from
many different States both North
and South. Everywhere his
fowls have been placed on ex-
hibition, they have not only won
some of the best prizes, but the
admiration as we'll of all lovers
of fine poultry.
At the big poultry show at
Greensboro last week, given
under the.auspices of the Guilford
Poultry Association, a fine barred
Plymouth Rock hen raised by
Mr.. Cheek won a $500 cash prize.
One of his roosters of the same
breed took first prize at the State
Fair last fall. At the Asheville
show one of his barred
Plymouth cockerls took second
prize in a class of ninety-nine of
the same class, and the same one
took the special club ribbon for
the best male chicken in the
show.
The fact that Mr.. Cheek has
won out so frequently against
such odds proves that his chickens
are no ordinary fowls. Besides
the above, he has also won many
other valuable prizes from time
to time and at various places.

New York City used nearly
half a million Christmas trees
this year, and the ultimate"
consumer payed for them $3.50, :
900, or an average of so cents a
tree.
There appears to be no falling
off in the demand for trees, said
a dealer, who handles thirty or
forty thousand of them in New
York every winter. "On the
contrary, their popularity is in
creasing so that already there is
shortage in the supply. 1t
takes from ten to fifteen years
to raise a tree big enough for use,
and those in the more accessible
forests are fast being cut out.
. 1t is estimated that the whole
country uses about 1000, 900
trees every Christmas. The
chief item in the retail cost of a
Christmas tree is handling and
transportation. They take a lot
of room, even when packed close
For the small trees you buy on
the street for 25 cents, the farm
er who cuts it gets only about 5
cents or less if he sells the trees
standing. The larger trees used
by Sunday schools and institu-
tions come as high as So or 81.
For a tree above the average size,
costing at retail 81, the farmer
probably receives 10 cents.

SPELLING CONTEST TO BEGIN
JANUARY %.

Chairman C. J. Cotton of the elemen
tary school committee of the School
Board has announced that the third
annual spelling contest of the public
schools will be held Monday, January
%.
Circulars have been sent to all the
public schools giving particulars.
There will be no district championships
this year, as heretofore. With that ex.
ception the contests will be similar to
the former ones held.
The contest will be between teams of
five or three representing each element
airy school. In order to compete pupils
must have a record of at least salts
in both scholarship and deport-
ment during December and January.
Mr.. Cotton says he expects satisfac-
tory results from the spelling contest
and that the pupils are taking more in
terest than usual in competitive spell
ing.
The spelling match for this district
will take place at Belleville School.
