Are Eager to Attend Supper at
the School Building
Next Thursday
EXPERTS TO MAKE TALKS

A number of farmers of
southern Orange are giving no
tice that they will attend the
supper of Jersey cattle owners
at the school next Thursday
night, November Is. This is in
advance of the sending out of

having read the newspaper an
nouncement Of the meeting.
The supper will be served at
the school and will begin at six
O'clock. All interested in Jersey

Word has come from two men
high in agricultural education
in North Carolina-Roy Thomas,
State supervisor of vocational
agriculture, and A. C. Kinney,
assistant State dairyman-that
they expect to be present. They
will be among the speakers.
The object of the meeting is
to talk of Jersey cattle and
what the breeding of them
means to Orange county. In
the last year or two a great
many of the farmers have
bought Jerseys, and they will
report upon their experience.
Housing, feeding, the keeping
of records, the marketing of
cream and milk-all these topics
will be thoroughly discussed.
Everybody who looks forward

Party for the COnvicts


John Strowd of the Chapel
Hill school contributes this re-
port:
"When the people around the
Chatham county convict camp
started to church Sunday they
packed up all the cakes, pies
and fried chicken that they
could fix on Saturday afternoon
and carried it to the church
with them, and instead fo going
home for dinner they all went to
the convict camp and spread
their dinner on a large table.
Then Mr.. Edwards, the preach
er, made a short talk and then
had a short prayer before the
people started to enjoy the feed.
After everybody had finished
the convicts all went in one
room and sang three songs. I
enjoyed the singing more than
anything else"

WATER SERVICE
FOR WEST END
Pipes To be Laid Soon and Water
Win Run to End of
Franklin Street
SEWER ALREADY THERE

1t is expected that pipes win
be laid and water will be rur-
ming to the west end of Frank
lin street by about the first of
December.
This is going to be boon to
the people living in that part of
the village. The town govern
ment had a sewer laid to the end
of the street some time ago, but
it has been useless because there
has been no water service.
The University, which sup
plies water to. the town, has re-
ceived word that the pipes were
shipped from the factory a
week ago. Ten days is estimated
by j. S. Bennett, the power
plant superintendent, as the
maximum time that win elapse
before they arrive. And after
they come the installation
should not require more than
two weeks.
No progress has been made
in the last few months in the
scheme to extend a pipe line
from Franklin street along
Church street to the colored
folks section known as Potters-
field. There is a sewer running
parallel with Church street,
three or four hundred yards to
the west, but before it can serve
Pottersfield several branch lines
must be built along transverse
streets. Until these connections
are made there is no reason to
put in a water main. Probably
as soon as enough residents
give assurance that they will
make use of the water service,
both main and sewers will be
laid.
A lighting line was recently
run out to POttersfield, and five
street lights were strung along
Church street. Fourteen col
ored househplders have tapped
the line and have electric illumi-
nation in their homes.
Mr.. Bennett is now estimat--
ing the cost of extending both
the water and the lighting SER
vice beyond H. w. Odum j.
house on thePittsboro road, in
order to reach the new residen-
tial development of the Chanel
Hill Insurance and Realty Com
pany.
Out at the far end of Nc
Cauley streets, where H. c.
Wills, James Huskey, Clarence
l.. Wills, and J. F. Partin live,
water pipes have been installed.
The land is too low here to al
low connection with the town
sewer system, and the residents
have septic tanks.

Chapel Hill ChaR

A look at the interior steel
framework of the Carolina Inn
the other day aroused in me
the suspicion that Chapel Hill
was about to have it's first pas
senger elevator, and one Of the
workmen confirmed it. Wel
take on the airs of the big
town one after the other; a
paved main street, numbers on
the houses, letter carriers a few
days hence, and next an eleva-
tor. But, now that automobiles
have come in, it is pretty GER
tain that we shall never have
trolley cars.
Miss Eliza Mallett, who is
we'll into the eighties, went up
to Emerson Field Saturday af-
ternoon to see the final stage
of the cross-eountry run. When|
the band played she remarked
that it reminded her of The mu-
sic she had heard in New York.
Someone near her said: "Why,
didn't know you had been in
New York;" She explained that
her visit there had been made
nearly 60 years ago, just after
the Civil War. She recalls
clearly every incident of it.
Picking up copy of the Eliza
beth City Independent the other
day saw glaring out at me
from the front page a pirate
with evil eyes and a. ferociOus-
Hooking dagger. The caption of
the picture told me that this
was none other than our own
George Denny, done up as Black
beard. He took this role in the
blood-and thunder melodrama
put on by the Playmakers last
year. The troupe is preparing
to present it in Elizabeth City
soon.

What with Nancy's Coffee
House, and Gooch's banquet hall,
and the radio outfit in Nick's
cafeteria next to the post-o1fice,
and Miss Gates new space, the
towns restaurants are making
spirited bids for patronage these
days. The boarding houses have
more devotees than ever, yet
they don't begin to keep up with
the student population. There
was a time when a visitor in
Chapel Hill had a hard time get
ting anything good to eat unless.
he made arrangements in ad-
vance, but now he may be well
and quickly fed.

Attention To The kennebec

Before long the State of Maine
will have to do something for the

it is the most important of the three
great rivers of the State. 1t courses
through a great industrial section
of the commonwealth supplying
power for a great many industries.
1t is the outlet of our largest lake
and connects the great timbcrlands
ana forests of the north with the
thicklV settled centcrs to the South.
1t is navigablc to the very center
Of the populated part of the State.
For MANY wears it has been looked
upon as Il political dividing line
separating eastern from western
Maine.
We do not have to enlarge upon
the importance of the kennebCc. but
its needs do require emphasizing. :.
We would not say that this has not
been done. for the Legislature heard
but little else last Winter, But the
TACT that the lawmaking body got no

he has been the head for many
years. But the country agreed with
his patriotic stand in the war,
though it paid his followers hand
somely in wages and bonuses. it
agreed with him when he opposed
recognition of the Russian soviet and
in all his long fight against COM
munism and the borcrs from within
the ranks of union labor. 1t should
rejoice with him over the effort
which the American Federation of
Labor is making to rid itself of the
