Lawyers Pay Tribute to Hinshaw

To-day is a day in the life Of
the court which has not been
heretofore" said Solicitor Saw
yer at recorders court last Sat
urday afternoon. He was refer
ring to the change in court Of
ficers as a result Of the recent
town election. {. ?. HinshaW,
who was Judge for the last four
years did rot stand for re-elec-
tion, and L. J Phipps was chosen
TO replace him.
The legislature made the nee
essary changes in the law 50
that We could have q court here, -
continued Mr.. Sawyer This
court was not created for the
purpose Of revenue It was es-
tablished for the convenience OF
the citizens Of Chapel Hill 50
that they would not have 10 go
to HillsbOro and wait around for
several days before their trial
came up" II was largely
through Judge HinshaW's : inter
est and influence, said Mr. Saw
yer, that the court was estab-
lished Sawyer congratulated
the outgoing Judge upon the
manner in which he had conduct
ed the office and then called up
on the members Of the local bar
to speak word Of appreciation
for Judge HinshaW's work.
There was some doubt as to
whether the honor Of speaking
first should 60 to the senior
member Of the law firm Of Giles
and Giles or to Mr. Robertson.
Mr.. Sawyer decided in favor Of
Mr. Giles.
Mr. Giles recalled the fact
that there had been some doubt
about the propriety of establish
ing court in Chapel Hill. II
is practically impossible, he
said, for a Judge to be in office
for more than a week and not Of
fend someone, but he had never
heard any serious criticism Of
Judge Hinshaw.
Mr. Whitfield said that II was
easy enough for the crowd to fol

done for three consecutive mornings
Saturday Coble appeared at the
cafe with a story that he thought
would knock them cold. "You know"
he began, "Old Jenny laid three eggs
a day for three days this week"
rs that right asked the listen
ers who were in on the plot.
The prank continued for three more
days, and Coble decided to write a
letter to the poultry experts at State
College in Raleigh. The letter met
favorable comment from the author
tiles; they said they were anxious TO
hear more about the merits Of Jenny,
the hen who laid overtime.
One day, during an unusually long
dissertation over the merits Of Jenny,
the man who had been putting the
eggs into the nest offered C0ble fifty
dollars for the hen. He felt sure that
Coble would not part with Jenny, and
his hunch was correct Coble refused
the offer.
The prankster got drunk over the
weekend, but he was not too drunk
to appear at the coop bright and
early Sunday morning with the usual
number Of eggs. He was little too
drunk One Of the eggs was duck
egg.
1t was a sad awakening for Coble.
He had had great admiration for his
Jenny, but not enough to persuade
him that she could lay two chicken
eggs and then top the performance
with duck egg.-koy Thompson

operation Of branches by any
one bank to prescribed areas.
The adoption of even the most
extensive Of these proposals
would not only avoid national
monopoly but would tend to re-
suit in the development of sew
eral additional financial centers
throughout the country to serve
regions now subject to the fl
nancial power of New York and
Chicago.
Eve are in a position to util-
iZe branch banking to accomplish
decentralization Of banking
power rather than to make pos
sible d further centrallZation
Moreover, by authorizing banks
to build up branch organizations
in prescribed areas, we can com
bat the tendencies which have
been manifest in recent years
for great banks in the principal
financial centerS to control large
numbers Of institutions all over
the country through the device
of having them bought up by
affiliated holding companies.
This development, commonly re-
ferred to as group banking, bids
fair to result in a highly central
lied banking structure without
responsibility in the public in
terest and almost wholly beyond
the control of either the Federal
or the State governments.
IF branch banking is un-
American, SO, by the same tok-
en-, is banking that is reason
ably safe for its depositors un-
American. For no country, not
even the most backward ma
tion in the world, has a record
of bank failures even remotely
comparable with ours. Branch
banking in other countries is
not the chief cause of the su-
perior safety of their banks, but
only a necessary part of bank
ing which can be safe. It is
important that we understand
this for if we should merely au-
thorize branch banking on

Tales by Thompson

Seven University students, debat
ing how 10 spend the afternoon so as
to get the most out Of the beauty of
the spring weather, finally agreed
upon fishing trip to Morgan's creek.
-Four blazed 4 trail for the other three
to follow
Armed with hooks and lines and re-
enforced with plug Of chewing to-
bacco, the quartet set out from point
down by the Kenan stadium. The
trail was blazed by squirting tobacco
juice on all available white rocks, and
after the plug had diminished CON
siderably the advanced party reach
ed creek bottom.
Unwilling TO await the arrival Of
the others, the four approached a
negro plowing in field and asked
him to plow up some worms. He un-
earthed an ample supply and further
befriended the students by pointing
out the favorite fishing place.
After three quarters Of an hour two
Of the party had pridefully drawn
two fish from the water Contented
with this success they lolled in the
shade Of tree and awaited the ap-
proach Of the rest Of the party.
Eventually the trio were heard hal
loaing up the creek, and the two sue
cessful Waltons ran to greet them.
"How's the fshing?" asked the late
| arrivers.
Fine, We've caught two, and oh
boy, Are they whoppers."
They all galloped off to see the
fruits Of the fishing.
Here's NINE" said one as he held
a perch forward
1t was a whopper; it measured a
good two inches
"Where's yours, Ralph? ?" the others
asked
"Oh, you amt seen nothing yet"
replied Ralph as he held out a snuff
box Running his finger about in it,
the boy located the fish and held it
aloft for inspection. There, glisten-
ing in the sunlight, was fish that
would be considered dwarf by any
decent self-respecting minnow.
To an accompaniment Of jeers,
Ralph hung his head and said, ooh,
well, They amt biting SO hot to-
day, nohow. Let's go swimming"
This suggestion, augmented by the
unbearable heat, met instant approx
al, and soon seven ardent anglers
were splashing enthusiastically in the
knee deep water of Morgan's Creek.
An egg story, or rather hen story,
was making its way over the streets
of Burlington at the last weekend.
John Coble, a resident Of East Bur
lngton, is the proud possessor Of
several Wyandotte hens, and he en-
joyed nothing more than to appear on
the street corner, in the barber shop,
or in the cafe, to extol the wonderful
progress which he was making as a
poultryman. Some of the men be-
came bored with the continual pratt
Ting of Coble over the number of
eggs, the number of biddies, and all
the other things that hen raiser
values the most. They decided to
give him something to really talk
about.
One morning one of the individuals
turned up early at Coble's hen-house
and put three eggs into the coop OF
his favorite hen. The same thing was
