Lecture By Dr.. Straton
Was Well Attended

The lecture delivered by DR.. John
Roach Straton in the Baptist Church,
this city was we'll attended, and much
enjoyed by all present.
DR.. Straton has a fine voice, a strik-
ing personality, rich vocabulary, an
attractive style, and a sound line Of
argument.
His subject was Success" and he
dealt largely with the elements that
go to make up a successful man. These
he declared were, optimism, courage,
enthusiasm, and righteousness. HIS
development of each of these was
clear, logical, and most convincing.
He deplored the frivolity of the pres
ent age, and declared that society
could not be built up on rouge, cigar
cites, lip sticks, chewing gum, scanty
clothing and other features of fast
life.
The Doctor held his audience for q
bout an hour and a half, and no one
felt wearied or regretted money in
volved. More of such would benefit
any community.

Which Loses Out

cd. The Corddry forces favored re-
tention of the plant by the munich
pality.
A largely attended citizens meeting
was held prior to the election, at which
the Byrd ticket was nominated. Some
dissatisfaction arose as to the out

foot to put another ticket into the
field, which resulted in the above
named combination.
