Mr Freeing announced his program
in the rate tanglc resultant from the
opinion OF Judge YoumanS setting aside

/. To take all of the necessary
steps for the perfecting Of an ap-
peal from Judge Youmans decision
to the United States supreme court
B. To determine II the federal
government through the director
general OF the railroads intends TO
fix any passenger rates.
2. In event the federal government
intends to take no hand in the mat

commission to call a hearing to de-
termine a rate and ask that two

lished.
"lt is not certain that it would be
necessary TO appeal from the decision
OF Judge Youmans to get a rate OF
less than three cents" Mr. Freezing
said today Nevertheless we will take
all precautions necessary to perfect an
appeal should it be found advisable.
State Must Fix Rate.
The corporation oommiS may, by
holding a hearing. establish new rate
that would not come within the ban Of
Jidge Noumans' decision, providing
that there is an appreciabe increase in
the rate
Col J. f Love, chairman Of the state
corporation, today said he favored ap-
pcaling from the decision OF Judge
Youmans TO the United State supreme
court. lie pointed out that a rate OF
two and one-half cents could be
established by the commission following
a hearing and that the permanent in
junction allowed by Judge Nouman,
would not lie against such rate. Then,
he said, the case could be appealed to
the supreme court and in the meantime
the two and one-half cent rate. or what
ever rate was established, would re-
main in eject.

"This means that in that time the state

To the Editor of The Robesonian:

To the Editor of The Robesonian:
Since our town has been quaran-
tined against a fearful disease which
has infested our country, and the
health officer has forbidden our wom-
en- to canvass in the interest Of Lib
erty Bonds, we wish to appeal to the
patriotism of our women and beg them
not to wait for the canvassers but
send in to the several banks their
subscriptions. Of course the canvass
ing will be done later but we all
know how much we ought to put at
the disposal of our men in the army
so let's do it now. We see in the
papers daily how much other towns
are investing so let us not be behind.
Let the women of Lumberton sub
scribe voluntarily and do it now. Sub
scription. blanks will be furnished up
on application to any of the banks

able demonstration of the matchless
farming resources of eastern North

splendid Robson county woman has
done, almost single-handed and alone
Besides the money crops raised by
her and sold this early in the season,
rest assured there is plenty to eat
on that eastern North Carolina farm.
It is safe to say that there are cows

woman that North Carolina is proud

ORRUM SCHOOL NOTES.
Large Attendance, Dormitory Over
flowing.
Correspondence of The Robesoniar

Correspondence of The Robesoniar
Orrum, Oct. 4.-Our school which
began September 2nd, is progressing
nicely under the leadership Of Prof.
R. L. Pittman. Other teachers are:
Assistant high school teacher, Mss
Ethel Erwin; intermediate, Miss Han
nah Yates; primary, Miss Revan New
ton; music, Miss Wrennie Floyd.
We have a very large school this
year, many from other communities:
The dormitory is overflowing, and
some Of the homes are filled with
boys and girls who hope to make
America proud of them some day.
The high school department is di-
vided into two societies, the EuUro-
phian and the Philanthropic, with an
enrolment of 29 each. Meetings are
held every Friday afternoon at $3.50
o'clock, making two programs for
each society per month. The pro
grams consist of songs, recitations,
debates, wills, prophecies, etc, which
are always enjoyed by every one. The
public is cordially invited to attend
these meetings and you attend once
you will want to come again.
Two fine basketball teams have
been organized, Annie Graham, man
sger of the girls team, and Sher-
wood Nye, manager of the boys team
We shall soon be ready to have some
interesting match games.
Another interesting feature of the
school is our music class, which has
made rapid progress for the past
year. Miss Floyd is one OF the best
teachers Orrum has ever had. In
some way she seems to captivaee her
pupils, and bring out the best that Is
in them.
We are afraid that this dreadful
disease, Spanish influenza, will close
our school, but we hope that this dis:
ease will soon be blotted out and
everything going on very smoothly
again.
