EREMEN ATE Pig
AND PLAYED BALL
Chief Foister, DR.. Nathan, 5. W.
Andrews, and Charlie Pick
ard among Performers
MOOSE TENNEY. UPSET CANADA

Here are a few things that hap
pened at the Grand Barbecue and
Baseball Festival of the Chapel Hill
Fire Department on Thursday Of last
week, at the midway bridge on the
highway to Durham:
DR., Nathan, coming to the bat,
cast shadow that protected the
spectators completely from the sun.
W. N. Canada, the giant contrac-
tor, was bowled over by Moose Ten
ney when Moose, who was behind
the bat, went after pop fowl. The
Carolina football star plunged vio-
lentIy into the Canadian stomach,
and a moment later the earth shook
from the impact of the great fall
ing body.
Chief John L. Noister, stood up
to the plate smoking a cigarette
and attired in a yellow shirt and a
gray Fedora hat, both of the latest
style and cut. When the bali was
pitched to him he knocked a feeble
fly to the pitcher. The pitcher
muffed it, and then the ball began
d series of expeditions through the
outfeld and infeld, in pursuit Of
the fire chief. He kept going until
he reached home.
S. W. Andrews, former sheriff
and present merchant, performed
in centerfeld. He was courtesy it
self. Whenever a fly came toward
him, the right-fielder and the left
fielder converged upon him. He
stepped gracefully aside in every
case and let them fight it out
Bud Huskey and Paul Sparrow
pitched Charlie Pickard unipired,
and Marmaduke Foister and Charlie
Gooch cheered loudly from the
sidelines. The Chapel Hill police
force, Officers Long and Williams,
WCIS UIl manu- " pLC9Cl We oluCi' -
looked as if some of the umpire's
decisions would make their protec-
r4ion necessary. Officer Woods, foe
of speed law violators, found moth
ing to alarm him about the progress
of the players between the bases.
Mayor Robertson, Bruce Strowd
and Edgar W. Knight arrived in
their automobiles in time for the
barbecue, and given free rein at
that, were content to miss the rest
of the show.
And the barbecue! Oh, joy! Oh
bliss! Oh, rapture! jim Rumbough
and the colored expert Foy Baker
had gone out in the night to put
the pig over the fire and had been
roasting him steadily eight hours
when the hungry horde gathered un-
der the trees at the west end of the
concrete bridge. With Moose Tenney,
Rumbough, Foy Baker and Chief
Foister serving, the crowd formed
iRp lire and were thoroughly fed.
While the feast was in progress DR..
Foye Robertson of Durham hove in
view amid cheers of welcome and
as suickly as he could demouunt
from his car was feasting with the
rest. And there were other Dur
ham guests-Sergeant Proctor of
the. police force and Mr.. Durham
of the fire department among them.

FORD TOOK | SOW,
2 CALVES, z men
Not To Mention Five 10 Gallon
Milk Cans Taken Along To,
Gather up Cream
FARM SERVICE, UP 10 DATE

A Ford touring car pulled
out Of Chapel Hill at two
o'clock one afternoon last week
with this load:
l Poland China SOW.
Jersey, bttii calves.
2 men.
] boy.
: 5 10-gallon milk cans.
This trip affords a good it,
lustration of the sort of WORK
the agriculture teacher in the
Chapel Hill school is doing IN
the country around here.
r. P. Harris had arranged to
get a sow for John Morgan 4
Frosty, down in Chatham coun-
ty; a bull calf for Felin .Str0Wd
in Orange, over near the Ala
nance line; and another bull
calf for Franklin Crabtree.
some 5 miles from Mr.. StrowUs
place.
The three animals, the SOW
coming from beyond Weldon
and the calves from Lexington
consigned to Mr.. Harris by ex-
press, all happened to reach
Chapel Hill the same day. And
on tt e very day as luck wor'}
have it, when he had Just
painted and oveI'hauled his
Ford. But they had to be de-
livered, and there was only one
way to do the job.
He summoned his associate
agriculture teacher, T A White
ner. They strapped. the box con-
tanning the SOW on the running
board. They put the two bull
calves in the back of the car,
one resting on the seat, one on
the floor. They piled in five 10
gallon milk cans wherever they
would go. And, to keep the rest
of the cargo from getting lone
some, John Strowd, a school
boy, NJ. Morgan's sNpson,
hoped into the front seat.
So disposed, they set forth.
Mr.. Harris was stationed in the
back, his assignment being to
keep the calves happy and re-
strain their impulse to leap out.
Mr.. Whitener was chauffeur.
John Strowd leaned over the
side and soothed the SOW with
pet names and promises of a
quick trip.
Ten miles to Frosty. four
more to Felin Strowd's five
more to Franklin >Crabtree's,
and about eleven more home.
Thirty<miles altogether and the
Ford pulled into Chapel Hill at
seven o'clock in the evening.
But the delivery of the ami
mails was not all. Along the way
the Ford stopped to pick up
cream that farmers had put
alongside the road for Mr.. Har-
ris to collect and sell for them.
In all, 25 gallons of cream were
taken aboard in the cans. 1t
was shipped off early next
morning to the creamery in
Burlington; the checks in pay
ment for it were mailed in two
or three days later and were
forwarded on to the farmers.
And Mr.. Harris and Mr..
Whitener cleaned and over
hauled the car again. But the
chances are that they'll be sub
jecting tito the same treatment
almost any day.

Orange County invaded Hills
boro in force last Friday for
the county schools commence
ment. 1t was a big day, not
only for the children, who were
the main performers, but for
parents teachers and friends
who came along TO take care
of the children and see the
fun.
Altogether, there. were more
than three thousand visitors
in town. Not for a long time
have the streets Of the old CO.
lonial capital witnessed such a
lively gathering. And the
weather was perfect-warm
but not too warm, with a soft
breeze in action all the while.
Automobiles You would
have thought the whole North
Carolina supply had come to
Hillsboro. They fairly~choked
the streets. worming their way
slowly past one another until
they discharged their passen-
gers, then parking along the
curbstQnes. Every kind, old
and new, big and little from
Paekards and Franklins and
CadiilacS down through Stude-
bakers and Bucks and Dodges
and Cheyrolets to the lowly
Ford. Each one brought its
load of children.
Here in Chapel Hill, and il
was the same in other COM
munities, owners of sedans,
touring cars, and trucks put
them at the disposal of the
schools, and themselves acted
as chauffeurs. AS many as fiji
teen or twenty children would
pile into a single truck, which
had been well carpeted with
straw, and set out for a reg
ular old STRAW ride" Anoth-
er group would be taken a.
board a richly upholstered Sc
dan. In one way or another,
they all got there.
Seven Observation-Disclosures,
Chapel Hill, Cedar Grove, Emo,
Little River, Bingham, and
Cheeks-sent their school dele
cations. A parade, from Hills
boro's new high school to the
court house, was the first num-
Der on the days program. Each
school had its banner, held sp
high over the marchers' heads.
As the children paraded by, the
older folk lined the roadway
and, cheered them. 1t took the
procession more than 80 min
utes to pass.

Prohibition Commissioner Says
Much of Bootleg Whiskey
Is Synthetic Stuff.

Most of the so-called imported
liquor" now being sold by bootleg
gers, is adulterated or rectified
stuff, and only a minor fraction
of such liquors are fit for the
human stomach, Prohibition Com
missioner Haynes said today.
Haynes, in a new review of boot
Logging activity. asserted that 90
per cent of all the whiskey md
other intoxicants confiscated by
raiders is bad liquor. He further
charged that a great deal of the
liquor which smugglers bring in
is synthetic stuff which has been
struggled out of the United States
and then brought back over land
and water smuggling routes.
Stories regarding the large
amount of liquor being struggled
into the United States is valuable
to the bootlegger," Haynes said.
