inc and Beatrice Daniel, Gladys Mere
dith, Kathleen Tucker, Louise Wohl-
ford, Kathleen Dodd and Anola Lind
sley, and Mr.. Ned Mitchell, Of Erwin,

and equally as well received. The
young people represented the Chris
tian Endeavor of their church, which
is one of the few Christian Endeavor
societies in the South and possibly the
only one in the state which has at
tanned the distinction Of being one
hundred per cent organization.
