Didn't Heed OwnAdvice

Some two weeks ago young wo-
man out at Los Angeles gave out an
interview, in which she included a
lot of splendid advice to young girls.
She warned them against becoming
"iaz" babies and cautioned them that
the proper road Of life for young wo-
men was that of denial of some of
the pleasures that are offered. She
would have the young women to take
heed to the good counsel of mother
and be careful of the kind of COM
pany they keep.
But for once at least this young wo-
man, a movie actress whose name has
since decorated the front page of
every daily newspaper in the country
and whose picture has likewise adorn-
ed papers from coast to coast, failed
to follow the advice she gave others.
She kent her presence to a gay party,
a party of drunken debauchery and
she herself was the supreme victim.
Injury, a most revolving injury, came
to her that ended her life in ignominy
and placed nationally known actor
behind the bars.
We pay for the missteps we make
in ife, and we paw for them during
life, or with our lives as the case may
he. Giving advice is easv. much easier
than following it, but following good
advice brings the good reward.-Dis-
patch.

You Must Put Down
Sidewalks Here
Chief Blackwelder Says An Ordinance
Requires Paving Be Placed Where.
Grades Have Been Established

Failure to establish sidewalks aft
er the curbstone has been set is a
violation of the law and will be fol-
lowed up with vigorous prosecution,
Chief of Police L. w. Blackwelder
says.
Owners of property where sidewalk
grades have been established will be
notified to put down paving and if
they fail to do so it will mean a fine
of 81 each day, the chief said. There
are several sections of the city where
property owners have failed to comply
with the law.
Chief Blackwelder directs attention
to Section 43 of the city charter, which
follows:
"That all persons, firms or corpora
tions owning property abuttlng on or
adjacent to an yof the streets Of the
city of High Point where said streets
have had sidewalk grades established
and curbstone set by the city, shall be
required to lay within 60 days from
date of notice to be served on said
property owner, standard granolithic
Sidewalk pavement of the required
width, as ordered by the city; the
said pavement to be in strict accord
ance with the standard specifications,
grades and details as required by the
citv and under the supervision of
the city engineer, and subject to ac-
ceptance by the city of High Point.
"Failure on the part of any proper,
tv owner to comply with any or all
of the provisions of this ordinance,
shall subject said person, firm or cor
poration to a fine of 81 per day Tor
each and every day after the explra-
tion of limit named herein, and the
citv shall exercise it's rights to con-
str11ct said sidewalks, as provided in

Bill Payne Captured
By Officers Sunday

Bill Payne, white man, we'll known
in this section land who is wanted in
Greensboro on the charge of larceny
Of large quantity of whiskey from a
hospital, and who has also been in
many other escapades in the Carolinas,
is in jail at Winston-Salem charged
with the larceny of a new Ford car
from Mt. Airy, and also with operat-
ing an automobile without a proper
license plate.
Payne was arrested early Sunday
morning by Deputy Sheriffs Newsom,
Scott, Gay and Smothers of Forsyth,
near Wallburg. The officers were in
search of another party and in a dense
thicket off the road they came upon
the car, in which Payne was fast
asleep. He was awakened and after
being questioned was taken to Win
stonS Salem for investigation. He lat
er admitted that he was Bill Payne,
wanted in Greensboro.
The officers found that the state
license number had been tampered
with and the original number. 3d.
o49 changed to 53,848, the change be-
ing detected only after closest exam
ination. The officers are now irving to
locate the owner of the original plate.
He had about four hundred dollars
on his person and officers believe that
this has given a clue to another charge
which may be launched against Payne
ultimately. There were also nam
ber of packages of merchandise wrap
ned in paper upon which was printed
the ADVERTISING matter of Mt. Airy
merchants.
The Mt. Airy car was missed sew
eral days ago.

Perhaps Oldest
Women in State
Two Sisters Pass
the Century Mark
They Are Misses Anna and Christian
McDuffie, of Near Carthage, Aged
1O4 and lO2 Years.

Carthage, Sept. 26.-To live a cen
tury is considered out of the ordinary,
but when two members OF the same
! family, living in the same house, pass
| the lUUth milestone, it is more than
out of the ordinary.
Out in Bensalem township of Moore
county, II miles from Carthage, is
the home of the McDuffie sisters,
Misses Anna and Christian. Miss An
ma is 1O4 years of age and Miss Chris
tian 102 years, according to authen-
tic records. They live with their ne
phew, John McDuffie, within one mile
of the spot where they were born.
And they have never lived outside of
Bensalem township.
The sisters are not ashamed of
their ages, and they are remarkably
active, getting about the little home
and yard without assistance. They
can see we'll with the aid of their
glasses, and the remarkable memo |
ries. 1t is very interesting to hear
of the days when there we're no nails
and no lamps, no trains and other
modern conveniences. Neither sister
can hear well.
Both Miss Anna and Miss Christian
voted last November, and when P4esi-
uCnC I1dIu1uS was ICCOHCly 1lOGA1ICo
that they cast their first vote for him,
he went them the following letter:

a most interesting letter, telling me
that both of you, being over 100 years

Ain AUXILIARY of
a Big Movement
10 Organize New
Financing Corporation
- for City's College
Need Funds With Which to Purchase
Site for Educational Institution
Offer Stock for Sale.

Efforts to organize a financing
corporation in High Point for the pur-
pose of making possible the donation
OF site for the Methodist Protestant
college were being made Monday and
ringing appeal for High Po.nte.s
TO rally to the call was issued by the
business and professional men in
charge of the movement
Walter l.. Hargett has consented to
take stock subscriptions for the cor
poratlon and is assisted by DR.. J. T.
Burus and G. c.. Robbins. The total
amount of stock purchased since it
was offered for sale two days ago is
now $4,000.
According to those acquainted with
the circumstances, High Pointers who
subscribe to the stock will be making
a safe investment as we'll as assisting
IN movement that spells progress for
the Furniture City, both educationally
and commercially. There will be a
hundred and twenty-seven lots offered
for sale and the plans adopted are
rather unique. For instance, a man
takes $1,000 in the corporation and
after the organization is effected and
he wishes to receive a lot for his mon
ey he will be given a deed for the
same. The idea is apparently meeting
the approval of local citizens. and the
scores of High Pointers Will put mon
ey into the enterprise IS apparently a
certainty. 1t was stated today that
not one individual called upon Tor as
sistance has refused to comply with
the request.
Several months ago High Point
launched great campaign looking
towards establishment of the Metho-
dist Protestant institution in this city,
Canvassers secured pledges for a to-
tai of 100000. high Point then
offered the board of education of the
denomination not only 100000, but
a site provided it was decided to
bring the colleeg here. The board ap-
poved the wishes of local citizens and
voted to erect the institution in High
Point.
1t is now up to citizens to get the
money for the site. Those who have
worked faithfully in the drive felt
that it would not be proper to again
launch a campaign for funds and it
was agreed to organize stock COM
pany in order to raise the funds nee
essary to obtain the site. Officials
said $4,000 was needed to finance
the undertaking.
1t was pointed out by those in
charge of the movement that imme-
diately after the needed amount of
stock has been sold the stockholders
will meet for the purpose of electing
a board of directors and officers of
the corporation. The directors are to
be invested with authority to act and
will price the property.
Determined effort will be made
during the next few days to sell the
stock as early as possible in order
that those in charge may wind up the :
affairs and place the property in the
hands of the board of education of the
Methodist Protestant conference. The
line to act is now, it is declared.
