Meeting Called to Discuss Sewerage
System and Hotel.
Mayor Holmes has called a meet
ing for tonight at' 8 o'clock at the
court house to discuss sewerage and
a new hotel for Graham.
As a means of promoting the
health of any town, there is no one
thing that the town can do that
would do more for the healtfifolneas
of the community. Everybody now
recognizes adequate sewerage as a
necessity, hence there is little need
to argue that point. How to se
cure it is the chief factor.
As to a good up-to-date hotel, a
town of the most modest pretensions
now-a-days feels that such is one of
the essentials of the town's life. U
the citizens of Graham will pull to
gether they can plan and build a
hotel that the whole tdwn and com
munity will feel pro ad of.

ben of the Board of County Com
missioners went to Greensboro to

made a proposition that it is thought
will be acceptiable to the Alamance
Board, that ie, it proposes to baild s
16-ft. wide road with 6-inch concrete
mixture base surfaced with a 3-iuch
asphalt mixture. The State will do
the work and the County in no
event will pay more than $13,000 IK)
per mile, and if the road can be
built for leas the county will
receive the benefit of the lower price
on a 50 to 50 basis.
The County Commissioners will
meet Saturday to consider the High
way's proposition.

The Board of Commissioners of
the town of Grabam, at their regular

adopted the following ordinance :
Be it ordained, That no person,

to state that the ordinance referred

Mr. Gant to Build School House for
Glen Raven District.
The people of the Glen ltaven
school district in Alamance county
will no longer have to put up with
an inadequate school building. Supt.
M. C. Terrell announces that Mr. J.
Q. Gant had purchased a beautiful
site, which will furnish ample play
grounds, and proposes to build a
modern school building suited to the
conditions of the community, and
deed the same to the County Board
of Education. Mr. Gant's only re
quest (and it is not a condition) is
that the people will furnish the
building. He wisely suggests this,
because he feels that they will take
more interest if they have a part in
the work.
Some of the material is alroady on
tl e ground and it iB hoped that the
building will be ready before Christ
mas. School will be opened in the
old building.
This generous act on the part ol
Mr. Gant is deeply appreciated by
the County Board of Education and
the patrons of the school.
It was proposed that this new
building be called the "Gant School,"
but Mr. Gant modestly declined to
have either the school or the district
known by his name, But an ap
preciative people will not readily
forget, and in the hearts of the pa
trons and in the hn rts of the boys
and girls who attend this school it
will be known as the "Gant School,"
although officially entered in the
records as the Glen liaven School.
Rev. L. I. Cox of Elon College Dead.

quaintances and it was a privilege to

work for the uplift and betterment'
of his fellows. In his church he was
trusted and honored. He was bora
in Randolph county Nov. 20, 1808.
His widow, six sons and five daugh
ters survive him. A great concourse

JJ
i Men Who Appreciate Superlative Values Prefer The Brunswick
In every great tire factory, the
chief question is: "How much ca:i
we give for the money?" And the
product depends on the policy
adopted.
Every man who has become ac
quainted with Brunswick Tires
knows that Brunswick standards
are again evident. This famous con
cern— noted as a leader in every
line it entered since 1845 has once
more proved that its policy is right.
A perfect tire is simply a matter
of knowledge and standards and
skill. No secrets nor patents pre
vent making an ideal tire.
But standards come first. For in
tire making there is vast room for
skimping, for subtle economies, for
hidden shortcomings. Makers with
out the highest standards don't
build high-grade tires.
The Brunswick organization of
tire makers includes a brilliant staff
of technical experts. Not a man
