Something unusual in a pro gram occurred at our meeting Fri day night. This was a mock trial which has been undergoing pre paration for some weeks. The court was opened by the sheriff, W. Mitchell, and the clerk, B. Jones, read the cases on docket. All were postponed except one which was "Sallie Ann Perry vs. Tom Perrv," suit for alimony. The solicitor announced that the State was prepared to try that case and the court took it up. The jury was then drawn and the trial proceeded. The impersonation of Mrs. Perry was carried out by Lambeth; Mudd, as solicitor. IMaylock and Kiser representing the State; while 11. Mitchell, Oar roll and Brinkley counseled for the defense. Hicks, as crier, call ed to be sworn the plaiutitf, de fendant and the six witnesses. The cross examinations were con flicting and witty, but neverthe less interesting and helpful. Frequently the lawyers rose to a point of order and quoted the letter of the law, demanding a strict adherence thereto. The speeches of the lawyers were brief and spirited. A period of only four minutes was given for each lawyer to make his plea. These speeches showed that their au thors were capable of defending their point and when they were so deeply involved as in this case they could with clear-cut argu ment put up a vigorous tight for their respective plaintiff or de fen dan t. After these speeches, the pre siding judge, his honor, C. W. Stewart, charged the jury and asked them to retire.

Market St. GREENSBORO THE GUILFORDIAN ported that ihe State had not pro duced sufficient evidence to carry the court, that the. case did not involve a true charge and that they therefore could not convict the defendant. The judge then threw the case out of court and the sheriff announced adjourn ment. Although this is a deviation from the regular and usual pro gram it nevertheless is a work new, entertaining, and extremely beneficial. Some of those present who admitted that they were wholly ignorant as to a court's proceedings expressed that they had been given a deep.insight intc the method of dealing out justice employed by our State govern ment. Those participating were opened up to new facts relative to judicial proceedings to say noth ing of the many points of law in troduced iii the case. On the whole we may say that the pro gram was a decided success and with almost every seat tilled it was evident that interest ran as high as in any previous meeting this year.
