ACCIDENTAL DEATH.
Six Year. Old Colored Child Aceidently
Kills Four Year Old Brother with
22-Rine.

The report of a small rifle at
his home late Wednesday after
noon sent Walter Reddick and
his wife running to their house
from the field were they were at
work. Arriving they found their
4-year-old son, Walter Jr., on the
ground dead, with a bullet just
below the heart, he having been
shot by his 6-year-old sister.
There were several children
playing around the house, but
these two were the Oldest. The
little girl secured the 22-caliber
rifle and was playing with it
when it fired, the ball snuffing
out the life of her younger brother.
Reddick is a hard working COL
ored man, living between Zion
and Steele's Mills.

and relies upon God for results!
The large congregations are
thoroughly enjoying him. The
meetings will continue through
Sunday and into next week. No
day services are being held; but
preaching every evening at 8
O'Clock. A cordial welcome
awaits all who attend these meet.

Mr.. White, will miss hearing one

Rockingham High School Debaters
Win Over Carthage Last Friday
Night, and Now Eligible for Uni
versity Finals.

The four debaters represent

did themselves honor, and re-
flected credit upon their school
and excellent coach, Miss Finley,
in the debating held with
Carthage last Friday night.
The query was Resolved that
the United States Shall Adopt a
Policy of Further Material Re.
striction of immigration"
The debate was held under the
auspices Of the University, and
over a score of high schools
throughout the State took part,
most of them, however in triangles
Carthage was pitted against
Rockingham. Representing the
local school here were Ledbetter
Mckenzie and Charlie McC Collum
for the affirmative; for the mega
tive for Carthage were Miss
Bette Mcdonald and Earl An
drews. The judges here were
John L. Everett, F. Don Phillips
and Ozmer L. Henry. The de-
cision was two to one fer Rock
ingham.
Representing Rockingham at
Carthage for the negative were
Miss Mamie West and Willie
Williams. At Carthage the de-
cision was two to one for the
Rockingham negatives.
The debates were of a remark
ably high order, and the pity is
that the Rockingham school
auditorium was not crowded.
Every parent should have at
tended, if possible, and thus have
shown to the pupils their inter
est in this vital branch of
their school activities.
The Rockingham affirmative
and negative teams will go to
Chapel April 22nd, to take part
