Friday afternoon E. E. Mendenhall, OF
Greensboro, representing creditors to
the amount of $3.50, came over to High
Point with the necessary papers to
place the I. A. Morris & Bro. store
in bankruptcy, Judge Boyd signing the
decree. Mr.. Mendenhall is receiver un-
til January 81, the date set for the hear
ing and the store will continue to sell
goods to that time.
The Morris family have lad three
stores in operation here up to last
week, on East Washington, East Com
merce and one i'm the western part of
the city. Last week the store on East
Commerce was vacated leaving the two
in operation. They sold goods at a
very low price and did big business
and it seems that they now owe for a
big part of same, the full Indebtedness
not being known at this, time Very
few dollars are owing by this firm to
High Point people, which is a note

To Keep the Work Going

Greensboro has started the move
ment to have the macadam road be-
tween there and here completed at
earliest possible time instead OF
waiting several years, claiming that
it is too important highway for bad
roads and also that it is expensive
and a waste of money to keep patch
ing up the bad part of the road, be-
lieving a way can be provided to
secure the money to complete the
work. Exactly so and High Point is
of the same opinion. =

I'm MEMORIAM
William CASTOR Bradshaw.

William CASTOR Bradshaw.
In regular meeting assembled, on jan
uary 25, 1915, the board of directors OF
the Commercial National bank, of High
Point, North Carolina, by unanimous
vote, passed the following minute in or
der to perpetuate upon it's records an
expression of personal affection for
friend, and an appreciation of the valued
services of an able official:
When this bank entered uRon it's ca
reer, almost a quarter of a century ago,
William CASTOR Bradshaw was one OF
the charter members and prime mover
in the enterprise. From that date un-
GIN NsEhinsa few days of his entry info
rest, his wise counsel has been much
sought and often followed, and his ad-
ministration as cashier, vice president
and director has wrought much of the
successful history of the institution. His
fine Judgment, poise, and progressive con-
servatism have always been potent in
forming the policies of the bank. His
strength of intellect and broad vision
gave him peculiar fitness to sit in the
counsels of financial institution. His
mind worked vigorously and accurately,
and he had little patience with the men
tai vagrant who sought to scan the broad
sweep of the horizon when the occasion
called for intensive concentration upon
the matter directly in hand. He was
interested to degree in all matters
which touched the civic, social and re-
ligious life about him, and was ever
leader in the forward movements of his
church and state. His family life was
ideal-in fact, he was a well-rounded and
many sided man, and there rs no
phase of our city's life that is not the
poorer since he left it.
We wish it were possible for us to
speak some word that might bring sur
cease of sorrow to his grief stricken
wife and children; they, as we, know
that he was ready to answer when his
name was called, and that his whole
life was but one grand preparation for
his final entry into that other and larger
existence made ready for the faithful
from the foundation of the world.
Let this memorial be spread upon
the minutes of this meeting, printed in
the newspapers of the city, and copy
sent to the sorrowing family.

CHANGERS STATE THEIR
VIEWS REGARDING EA|R
Pomona Executive Committee De-
Clines to Assume Financial Re-
spOnsibility for 1916 Show.

Refusing to assume financial re-
sponsibility for this years exhibit,
four members of the executive COM
mittee of the Thurston County Po-
mona Grange issued a formal state
ment last Saturday setting forth the
basis upon which they would under
take to arrange for the Second An
hual Thurston County Fair this fall,
which has been set for the week of
September ~, dates which the Puy-
allup Fair has since appropriated.
The necessity of employing man
ager this year. of paying rental
for the fair grounds, and of incur
ring other incidental expenses, will
require the expenditure of some $500
more than last year, it is estimated,
while some $175 contributed toward
the expense of the first Fair by the
Oranges of the county may not be
available this year. Last year, also,
members Of the executive committee
gave personal notes to guarantee the
fair bills, a risk they do not care to
take this year.
The statement was signed by Po-
mona Master l.. l.. Snow and Com
mitteemen F.. A. Warner, F. {.
Christensen and D. M. Kagy, all of
whom were interested in the man
agement of last years fair, and sets
forth that If the Carlyon grounds
can be obtained for reasonable
rental, a manager employed at not
too great expense. and the needed fl
nances arranged for, the committee
will proceed with plans for the ex-
hibit. Last year County Agent o. c.
Van Houten acted as manager. The
Chamber of Commerce is co-operat-
/ ing with the committee and will try
to evolve some plan whereby the
Fair may be continued.
