Friday afternoon Lacey Coe, a
fourteen-year, old colored messenger
boy at Hart Drug Company's on
South Main street, met very seri-
GUS accident whereby nearly the
whole of his face was burned off by
boiling water. In the rear of the
store he was busy placing a large
casserole of water on the gas stove to
boil. After the water had been at
the proper temperature for some
time he attempted to remove the
vessel when suddenly the top blew
off and all the boiling contents were
thrown directly into his face. Two
doctors were Immediately called and
spent the greater part of two hours
in dressing him. Very little seemed
to be left of what was once his face
except his eyes, nose and mouth.
While it is expected he will live,
he will always doubt
less present rather hideous spec
tacle the rest of his life.

HELPFUL TO THE MEN
OF THIS COMMUNITY
A GREAT TEACHER

Every man in High Point should
% at least once and then often as
he could, to hear Prof. Thornwell
HAYNES talk before the Baraca class
at Wesley Memorial M. E. church.
REGARDLESS of church affiliation this
should be done, because we believe
each man would derive lasting bene-
fit from so doing which would make
him better citizen by broadening
his sphere in life and at least put
him to thinking along lines helpful
TO himself, his family and conse-
ouentIy to his town and community.
We believe that the people of
Hieh Point would be repaid a thou
sand fold if they would secure the
services of Mr.. Haynes each Sunday
to talk to them along the same lines
he follows at the Wesley Memorial
church, in some place large enough
TO hold the audience. 1t would be
a GOOD investment at $1,000 year
but Nh. Haynes is doing his work
without money or price,"
His talks are more interesting
and certainly calculated to do more
GOOD than a-dollar-a night attraction

LOCAL CONCERN DESIRES
TO SPREAD OUT FOR BIZ
NORTH STATE COMPANY WANTS
MORE STATIONS

The North State Telephone com.
pany of High Point presented to the
board of commissioners of Greens
boro Monday afternoon a proposed
ordinance under which the company
desires to increase the number of
long distance stations il is now ope-
rating in Greensboro. Under the
present charter the North State is al
lowed to operate twenty-five stations
in Greensboro and some time ago a
request was made for a new charter
which would allow the installation
of from is to Is additional ones.
The proposed ordinance presented
would give the North State company
the same privileges as those enjoy
eddy the Bell Company. that is con-
corning long distance stations. The
independent company has no desire
to install local telephones. The or
dinance was referred to the city at
torney who will investigate the pre-
sent charter and see if it is possible
for a new one that will permit the
enlargement of the North State facil-
tiles in Greensboro to be granted.
The commissioners took the matter
under consideration until the at
torney makes his report.
