THE FOURTH OF JULY AT HIGH
POINT.

Ii was rather quiet Fourth OF
July here this year, nothing doing
at all, until the afternoon when the
Red Men enlivened things consider
ably by their exercises. The tre-
menduous crowd noticeable on
former occasions was absent. The
furniture buyers were here and a
few other visitors which made tho
streets look like a. Saturday after
noon crowd. In the morning the
rain threw damper On things but
by three o'clock the sun Showed its
face again,
The Red Men had a big dinner at
six o'clock in the Carrick grove
where the exercises of the evening
were held. "A battle was waged be-
tween the Chickasaws and the pale
faces, paleface houses burned, a
trial and then the victory march by
the Red Men back to the Wlgwam
on North Main Street, carrying col
ored torches which presented a
rather interesting sight.

Monday was the day set to, open

coupon bonds The highest bidder
was Chicago firm who offered
$1W,O11, There seems to be no big
demand for bonds at present, in fact
the state of North Carolina was only
able to dispose of about one fourth
of its $1,OO0,000 bonds to outside
parties the past year. Perhaps the
little stir among banking circles and
the new administration scare" has
something to dc with it anyway.
High Point should have a good
premium on her gilt edge bonds and
here's hoping that Mayor Tate will
hold same open until a good prem.

By Edgcard w. Pickard

Mr.. Pickard% is that type OF
globe-trotting authorwho seeks
the quaint and curious places
and people as subjects for his
clever descriptive articles. In
his present series of twelve
articles which we. have ar
ranged to print, he has touched
not only the actual work OF
building the canal, and the
people who have accomplish
ed it, but has gone into what
the newspaper worker knows
as the side lines, and which as
a rule are of as much interest
as the main story. This is par
ticularly true in this case.
After our readers have com
pleted the last Of Mr.. Pickard'a
articles they will have a better
understanding of the Panama
Canal, and conditions within
and surrounding the canal zone.
