Loses Mind Over Religion

An over-supply of religious zeal
which followed his joining the
Holy Rollers" while student in
Chicago, has caused Bryant Kerr, a
Greenfield young man, 10 go insane.
He has been taken to the hospital
for the insane at Clarinda.
Young Kerr, who had for years
been of very religious trend of
mind, several months ago went to
Chicago and became a student at
Moody institute. While there he fell
in with "Holy Rollers" and adopted
their creed, becoming one of their
student workers. Physicians say
that Kerr probably suffered a hem
orrhage Of the brain as a result of
great religious excitement. They
say this resulted in blood clot
forming on the brain, causing in
sanity. Kerr is perfectly rational
on all subjects excepting religion.

bonds. His address was tineiy
and to the poirt. He emphasiz-
ed the necessity OF the state pro-
viding better school facilities.
He said the election was not only
OF local interest but it is or inter-
est to the entire state. The boys
and girls in High Point today
will be the men and women of
North Carolina tomorrow, he
sald. Mr: Barrett said he was
speaking for those who could No.
speak for themselves-the little
children. He brought a message
to Mr.. MARI direct from the
president of the Central Labor
union, stating that the organiza-
ton was ready to render any
service possible in behalI Of the

ready to guard the lives of the
children physically by sending
for a physician when one is over
taken by illness, and he saw no
reason why they should not be
equally as interested in their ed
educational lives,
Rev. w. A. Lambeth was an
other interesting speaker. He
said it was the duty of any COM
munity to educate the child. He
said each man should protect his
neighbor's children. He was
afraid of his neighbors children
when they we're uneducated. He
said by protecting the other
mans children he was also pro-
tecting his own.
S. L. Davis, membr of the city
school board, declared that the
proposed high school must go or
the pupils in the lower grades in
the schools must suffer. Mr..
Davis told of the constitution of
the present school board and the
present Inadequate and deplor-
able conditions in the schools.
He mentioned the town parasite
and the very ignorant man.
Those were the class opposed to-
the issuance of bonds, he said. !

in the interest of the school
bonds. He declared that it should
be favored by both the rich and
the poor.

should be no prejudice between

tricts and those in. High Point
