eral springs, provided, of course, that
property can be secured for the event

quainted with barbecue barbecuers,
was chosen chairman of the commit

On the same committee are such good
stewards as Charles L. Amos, Gilbert
W. Clark and Frank J. Sizemore.
The barbecue will be one of the
first steps taken in the general reiu-
Venation Of the chamber, which, it
should be known, has not been the
least bit inactive since the coming of
5. K. Rivens as secretary. At an early
GATE the full bureau plan will BIT put
to functioning in the chamber; in
other words if member is interested
IN good roads or agriculture. or any
other particular activities of the or
ganlzatoin he can become allied with

Dear Sir:
Please accept the enclosed small
contribution to the fund for dissent
nation of truth about the League of
Nation. 1t is literally a widows mite,
but it comes from a mother who sent
four greatly needed sons to the world
wars Two of those sons, with almost
unlimited possibilities for future use
fulness, were killed; a third was ill
in hospitals in France for five months,
due to gassing in action, and is still
classified as unfit and fourth risk
ed his precious young life in the air.
When an honest and concerted effort
is being made by the nations of the
earth to save, if possible, future
mothers and sons from these sacri-
fees, it is hard to realize there are
those who oppose an effort. I feel
sure that among those who paid for
the war there can be but one opinion,
and that to try the League of Ma
tions, even if it is not perfect It is
the best that has been proposed, and,
all objections being weighed, is mani
festly the most feasible. Please God
it Will not fail.
Very truly yours,

center Of High Point It was pointed
out by A. E. Tate and others that
High Point could not hope to grow
TO any great extent until a street was
opened paralleling Main street. The
extension Of Jordan street across to
connect with Rankin street would, it
was stated, materially relieve condi-

give the city another business thor

1t was pointed out in this connec-
tion that the opening of this street
should come to pass at the earliest
possible moment, before the vacant
lot on the Washington street side has
been built on. Then, too, there is
valuable property in the center of that
block that is literally surrounded with
no means of access unless a street is
opened. The various civic commit

GARD TO POLITICAL MATTERS.
Mrs. Mary Settle Sharpe,
Greens boro. North Carolina.
Dear Mrs. Sharpe:
Your letter appealing to me as one
OF the newly enfranchised voters to
cast my first vote for you as the Re-
publican candidate for Superintendent
of schools, is at hand.
! In reply, 1 would say that YOUR
appeal for Republican support for you
to be placed at the head of our schools.
brings to mind the fact that your party
during reconstruction days closed our
public schools, also the university;
squandered or stole the public school
FUNDS and also made way with that
trust fund, known as the land script
fund, to say nothing of defeating for
membership in the legislature one of
natures noblemen, with one black ne
gro named Bob Crawford who could
neither read nor write, but whom
your party elected to the reconstruct
t1on legislature, as a representative
from my county
But your leaders say we should
give you another chance During
fusion days you had another chance,
and you put more than 40 negroes
in office in Richmond county, of
which this county was then a part,
and member of the public board. of
education of the county then was a
negro.
In our own town you put three
whites and two negroes on the board,
and one Of the whites having died,
your board decided to give us plenty
OF good Republican government and
would not appoint for a long time an
other white man on the board, so
when our young lady teachers applied
for the school they had to be passed
upon by at least one of those negroes
and they could not draw a cent Of pay
until at least on the negroes signed
their vouchers.
No, Mrs. Sharpe, 1 love the people !
of my county and state and have too
much pride in the children of the |
state to turn the administration of
affairs over to your party. 1t has
been weighed in the balance and fouuu /
Have you forgotten that there was
an average OF one assault a week upon /
women during the latter part of the
fusion regime assault by negroes j.
upon white women? Only one negro
was hanged in my county Chen Rich
mond) for that crime, during your
party's satu1nalia of power during fu-
sion days /
No, Mrs. Sharpe, never can vote
for you to restore those evil days.
Respectfully,

MOTOR SERVICE GROWING.

The Motor Service company has
expanded it's garage to the building
adjoining its present location, thus
forcing the Max Samet second hand
furniture company to remove its
business to Washington street.
This addition to the garage will
probably be used as a storage room
for automobiles, and is now being
adapted to the needs of the garage.
