Community Sing
Proves Big Event

A thousand voices made great nu-
sic at the school auditorium Sunday
afternoon when High Point citizens
gathered to give expression to the
Community spirit. in an hours pro-
gram of song. 1t was a community
sing in which the community really
sala and the occasion paints to-. q
81 fsfSdid spirit of cooperation and fell
1owship through the medium of music.
J. Oliver Brison, national community
service song leader, led his forces with
vigor and precision and his enthusiasm
fairly radiated through the audience.
All joined in singing such selections
as ''Nearer My God to Thee" 'Old
Black Joe" 'Long, Long Trail, =
Dixie" "The Star Spangled Banner
and others equally we'll known. 1t was
a performance in which the chorus
starred"
The presence of the Elks' band, un-
der DIR. J. Fred Tesh's direction, con-
tributed largely to the success of the
sing. Band selections opened and
closed the program and the music fit
ed in we'll with the singing of the
huge community chorus. The band
accompaniment to the national an
them was indeed fitting conclusion
to the afternoons program.
Mr.. Brison delighted his hearers
with a solo, The Voice of the VIII
derness," by John Prindle Scott. The
song served to display the fine quality
and range of Mr.. Brison's wonderfully
musical tenor.

Aid for Home for
Helpless Girls
Miss Biggs, National Field Worker, i'm
High Point in Interest of Home
at Charlotte.

Miss Elizabeth C. Biggs, national
field secretary, is in High Point in
the interest of the Florence Critten-
ton industrial home of North Caro-
lina, at Charlotte, an institution that
is a branch of the national organiza-
ton for rescue work among young
girls. This is Miss Biggs' first visit
to High Point since 1914 in behalf of
the institution.
The Florence Crittenton industrial
homes were founded in 1883 by Char
les N. Crittenton, wealthy New York
business man, who established res
cue home in the East Side of New
York for caring for girls of the street.
The institution was named in memory
of Mr. Crittenton's daughter, Flor
ence. Since then nearly one hundred
homes have been established in the
United States which care for thou
sands of helpless girls each year.
The home at Charlotte was organ
lied by a group from the Protestant
churches of that city in February,
1903, interest having been aroused in
the work at hat. ime by Mr.. Critten-
ton and Mrs. Kate Waller Barrett. In
1905 a home was built and equipped
and that it has accomplished great
good since it's establishment is fact
beyond dispute. The aim and object
of the home is to bring about the
reformation of young girls who have
been led astray for the first time.
Statistics kept at the home show,
that very few girls haye returned to.
lives of sin after leaving the institu-
tion. Many have married, while 9TH
ers have returned to their fathers
and mothers and are living respect
able lives.
Miss Biggs, in talking with news
paper man, pointed out some OF the
Charlotte, which is conducted solely
present there are twenty-six girls in
the home and seventeen babies. Two
of the girls, ages 13 and Ia respect
lively, are expectant mothers. Two
are feeble minded girls, mothers of
feeBie-minde babies. 1t is to meet
such conditions as this that the home
was founded. @
The home needs everything large
family needs. 1t has been in existence
sixteen years in North Carolina and
has helped over 700 girls and babies.
The institution, Miss Biggs pointed
out, is sstclose to home to High Point"
as an average of one girl year has
been sent from this city to the home.
Among some of the urgent needs at
the institution are a 81 200 maternity
room, beds, sheeting, towels. chairs,
furniture etc. A COW given the home
is cared for by friend of the instr
tuition because there are no facilities
for it's care there.

Washington, April 8-Taking with
hlm to the grave the. secret of the
whereabouts of the great seal of the
confederacy, which he hid when JEFF
1elson Davis was captured, James
Jones, the negro bodyguard of the
president of the confederacy, died here
today.
Jones was a North Carolina negro
and his body will be taken to Raleigh
tomorrow for burial The aged col
ored man had been failing for some
time, but even as death approached he
kept silent about the Confederate seal.
Throughout his long life, with his
latter years spent in the government
service in Washington, James Jones
would never reveal what became of the
confederate seal. "Marse Jeff' had
hidden that he never telI-and he
never did. Veterans of the union and
confederate armies, newspaper writ
erS, curiosity seekers and curiO hunt
ers from time to time urged Jones to
reveal where he buried the great SEAL
They argued that the civil war was
far in the past and the seal should be
produced for the inspection of the
younger generation of today and the
generations that are to follow in a
reunited country. Always James shook
his head and to the end he maintained
his silence.
The negro bodyguard was with
Jefferson Davis when his capture was.
affected in fact, he is said to have
warned his master of the approaching
enemy, but President Davis did not
escape in time. Jones accompanied
President Davis to Fort Monroe,
where he was placed in prison.
Jones was born in Warren county,
North Carolina. After the war he
headed negro fire department in Raj
eigh and became a minor city Off
cial. He turned Republican in politics,
but always voted for Representative
William Ruffin Cox, Of North Caro-
lima, who represented the state in the
house in the 18th and 49th Congress.
Later when Mr.. Cox became secretary
of the United States senate he
brought Jones to Washing with
him and gave him messengers job
in the senate. That was in 1893.
Since that time he has had several
jobs about the capitol and was mes
senger in the senate stationery room
until short time before his death.

SUNSHADES FOR LUCKY DOGS
innovation That Was Brought About
by the Protracted Spell of Un-
usually Hot Weather.

One of the ~uaintest innovations Of
the recent heat wave In London was
the introduction Of sunshades for
dogs. These consisted Of light crepe
DECLINE projections suspended over
the animals necks by light wire
strands.
The "luCky" animals whose masters
or mistresses bought the sunshades
did not seem so pleased with them as
perhaps the donors had hoped, re-
marked London Answers.
One dog found the heat so oppres-
slve that he sought the shelter of a
railway tunnel on the Highbury tube.
Here he was, however, so frightened
by the continual passing of trains
that he shrank into a dark corner and
remained there for two days, until
his master, on the information of a
railway man, fetched him.
Although sunshades for dogs made
their first appearance, there was a
strange absence of the straw hats
that horses used to wear before the
war. Have horses been so hardened
by the great campaign that they do
not need the consideration that dogs

than the usual kind.
The wooden framework of the boat
is covered with a cork lining, and
over that is laid an outer cover Of
woven cane. 1t is said that the new
beat floats better than the boats now
In use, and that 1t impossible for 1t

The basket lifeboat Is so light and

crushed by swinging against the side
Of a ship or by the buffeting Of the

There has appeared in this country
recently a special plywood material
for aircraft construction.
This new material must not be con-
fused with ordinary plywood, which is
glued together. 1t Is claimed to be
super-plywood, and is actually sewn
together
First, the layers are cemented to-
gether with waterproof material, and
then stitched through in parallel rows
about one and quarter inches apart.
This gives a rigidity and residence not
to be attained by any other method.
Weight for weight, 1t Is the strongest
material yet invented. 1t is made In
sheets of any size or shape up to eight
feet wide by GO feet long and from
one-eighth of an inch to five-eighths Of
an inch thick, thus doing away with
