Oabney committee.
The order signed by Judge
Thompson held that Randolph had
not been duly elected principal and
e1. Joined him from assuming any
authority. The court also held that
B. A. Scott sis not at this time
entitled to act as principal Of the
Dabney school district for the cur
rent school term, by reason OF the
fact that his election as such by
the district school committee has
rot yet been approved by the coun-
ty board of education and the cOun-
ty superintendent Of schools, and
the allegations Of the said B. A.
Scott that the refusal to approve
lis election was not had in good
faith, have not yet been passed
upon by the courts
The court order provided that
Mr. Crews open the school and
continue the operation of the
school until a principal shall have
been determined by the courts to
have been legally elected for SAID
school,"
The final paragraph Of the or
der set forth that it was made

whatsoever to the rights Of B. A.
Scott. and is not intended, and shall
Tot be taken to in any Wise~ eff
feet or impair such rights as the
said B. A. Scott may have in the
action of his against the county
school board or the county super
intendent, on the alleged ground
that disapprOval of SCOTS election
by the Dabney committee "Was ar
bitrary. capricious, inspired by sell
fish and personal motives and void
in law"

undecided today. Superintendent E.
NJ. Rollins, who is eX-officio secre-
tary to the board, said no meeting
had been held nor called, and he
could not say just when one WOulo

Dabney citizens had prey iOusly
suggested that Crews be put in on
a temporary basis so that the school
could be opened, but the county
board refused to concur in the pro-
pOsal.
Furthermore, proposal at the
hearing Monday that Dabney citizens
as a whole be allowed to vote on a

jccted by attorneys for the county

DICK CORBITT FREED
OF LARCENY CHARGE

Raleigh, Oct 1O-Magistrate J. B.
Damieley found mot probable cause"
yesterday in the larceny case pending
against Dick Corbitt of Henderson

The men were charged with stealing
$3.50 from N. F. Lewis Of Swift Creek
Township on July 27.

I'VE been watching her for long time now.
I've seen her in most of the countries of
1 the world Trooping down the gangplanks
of steamers, crossing university campuses,
holding out -of-door forums, crowding through
factory entrances at eight in the morning,
dancing in night clubs, skiing in the Adiron-
dacks, riding in Jasper Park and hiking along
the Appalachian Trail. Vivid, laughing, pro-
vocative, the American girl has kept me
wondering, puzzled to name the quality that
sets her apart from all other girls.
The chic of the French jeune file, the soft
beauty of the Italian, the vivid coloring of the
Viennese and the loveliness of the English
girl can be duplicated in any gathering of
girls but the quality that makes the American
girl outstanding in any country is not con-
nected with beauty. 1t is an elusive thing and
yet definitely marks her as an American any
where in the world.
1t was the young Canadian visiting me who
finally clarified this.
ITO me it's very clear" she said ''In this
country no one is interested in mho you are
but rather in what you are doing and how
we'll you are doing it,
wondered Did that attractive eagerness
that upward lift of the chin, that direct gaze,
come from the desire to express herself, or
desire to be an outstanding individual? l
couldn't make up my mind and so went on
another voyage of discovery
know the answer now
Ingraned in each American girl is the
desire to be outstanding in whatever she does.
She knows that rewards in this country are
Copyriaht 1889, United Newspa Magazine Corpor'
Evening star., 1939-06-04

for personal accomplishment, instead OF in
herited position She knows too that only in
this country is woman the equal of man, that
Job for job, she will be credited on performance
and not excused because of difference in sex.
Early, very early in the country's history,
the American woman realized too. the all
important fact that women in the rough
may be as unattractive and futile as men in
the rough may be attractive and forCeful. Out
of this realization she has made herself the
most faultlessly -groomed woman in the world
today.
And she realized the feminine traits of
gentleness and sympathy were useless without
intelligence, without the trained brain neces-
sary to bring about needed social reforms -
and she fought and won the battle of equality
in education and business
This had been done in other countries by
other women, but with the realization of their
goal the crusade had ended. But not here,
That that!' the American girl says, land
now what?' And out she starts again.
The housewife studies budgeting. scientific
food values, hospital and home nursing, new
est methods of canning, how to manage
interior decoration, the best way to wash
blankets and wax floors Nothing but the best
professional standards will satisfy her and
nowhere in the world are there better house
wives.
The woman who is fond of bridge is coached
by a professional so that she may play
inteligently.
The girl acting in her school play asks for
proper direction. She wants to play like
