The first of the two concerts
to be given here by the United
States Marine Band next Thurs
day, November ID, will begin at
$3.50 in the Kenan stadium, and
the second will begin at $3.50 in

was to have the evening per-
formance in Memorial Hall, but
a shift has to be made because
that building is temporarily out
of use.
The coming of the famous or
ganization will make Thursday
a gala day in Chapel Hill. The
American Legion is to display
its flags along the main street,
and the village will be lit up by
the brilliant colors Of the bands

Chapel Hill Chaf

Since his automobile injury,
which has kept him from getting
about much, Major Cain has
taken to reading detective
stories. In the last few days he
has been deeply engrossed in the
tales of the British writer, Ed
gar Wallace. The Major is
around 85 years old but his act
i've mind makes him hostile to
repose. He is a good doer and
a good talker-and a good fish
erman when he is in condition
but mere loafing is distasteful
to him.

in the village is how to spell the

Kinfolks." Every time | am

Church Title Is Good
Deed on File in HillsbOrO Gives Proof
of Baptists' Ownership

Since the erection of the new
Baptist church rumors have
spread abroad that there is a
flaw in the title of the old church
property on West Franklin
street. These rumors are dis
credited by a deed signed by
John Hutchings and witnessed
by John Ward and David Nc
Cauley in 1855. Carl Durham
obtained a copy of this deed
from the Office of the Register
of Deeds in Hillsboro and he was
showing it yesterday to some of
his friends gathered in Eubanks'
drugstore.
1t recites that Rev. William
H. Merritt devised certain land
along the main street of Chapel
Hill "for the purpose of selling
such portion thereof as might be
necessary and applying the pro-
ceeds, with other moneys here
in specified, for erecting a Bap-
tist church upon such portion of
the land as might remain un-
sold" Mr.. Hutchings, trustee
of Mr.. Merritt, sold some of the
land and decided the unsOld part,
containing the church, to the
trustees Of the Baptist church
and their successors. In 1906,
fifty-one years after Mr.. Hutch
ings executed the deed, the exc
cution was attested by the wit
nesses, Messrs. Ward and Nc
Cauley, before Algernon S. Bar
bee, justice of the peace. The
church property has been held
by the trustees continuously
since they came into possession
of it through the Hutchings deed.

ScOtty Leaves Village
Fastidious Terrier Lost to Malletts
Returns to Previous Owner

Scotty, the aristocratic and
fastidious Scotch terrier which
the McClamrochs left with the
Malletts, has gone away from
Chapel Hill, Never to return,
so far as anybody knows.
He was a gift to the McClam-
rochs from their friend, Vincent
Oliver, of Philadelphia. When
they went abroad their house
in Senlac was let to Miss Mabel
Mallett, and the dog was left as
an appurtenance of the house.
J Then Miss Mallett's parents
came to live with her. Because
she was busy at her office in
the University during the day,
the care of Scotty devolved upon
her mother. And Scotty re-
quired extraordinary care. Mere
feeding and a place to frolic did
not suffice; he was used to at
tentiOn, and Mrs. Mallett had to
play games with him and think
up various ways to entertain
him.
One day they got a letter from
his original owner, Mr.. Oliver,
saying that he was heartsick
from yearning for Scotty. Would
they send him back? The an
swer was: they would. Upon re-
ceiving this glad news Mr.
Oliver gave up his apartment
and took a house with a yard
around it so that ScOtty would
have ample playground space.
And so now Mr.. Oliver and
Scotty are happy in their re-
union. Some Of the dwellers in
Senlac think that the Malletts
are bearing up bravely under
the loss,

S. J. Brockwell, while he was

few days ago, stopped to pick
up a tool, and his knee came
down upon the sharp end of a
nail sticking up from a piece of
wood. The nail entered his knee
joint. Mrs. Brockwell applied

for a while there would be no
trouble. But later Mr.. Brock
we'll was seized with violent
pain. He was treated with anti

MANY TAXPAYERS
GET DISCOUNT BY
PROMPT PAYMENT
$1,000 Collected in October and
Good Receipts Are Expect
ed for This Month
PENALTY ON JANUARY 1ST

Many of the citizens of Chapel
Hill have hastened to settle
their 1929 tax bills in order to
get the benefit of the discount
for prompt payment. Town
Manager John Foushee collected
SILL 900 in October, which means
that the total saving to those
who paid was about $110. He
expects the receipts to be con-
siderably increased before the
end of this month, since Novem-
Der 30 ends the period within
which deduction is allowed.
There is a discount of / per
cent. for payment in either Oc-
> tober or November. There is
none in December. And, begin
ming January l, a penalty is
added for every month. For ex-
ample, the citizen who settles
his tax bill in March will have
to pay penalty of 3 per cent.
Taxpayers may make par
tial payments of their taxes if
they so desire" said Mr.. Fou-
shee yesterday, ''and they get
the benefit of the discount on
any amount that they pay by
the end of this month"
The cOunty's discounts are
different from the towns. One
per cent was allowed in Octo-
Der; half of l percent. is allow
ed in November. There are no
discounts in either December or
January And a penalty of l
percent is imposed February /
and piles up at the rate Of l per
cent a month thereafter.
The town manager has got
good results from the garnishee
notices sent out a few weeks
ago. About 20 of these were
sent to employees who had failed
to pay their taxes within the
statutory time limit, and in most
of the cases the debt to the town
has now been settled. Under
the law an employer, when noti-
fed by a municipality, must
make a deduction from wages
to cover an employees tax bill.
