JHE GLEANER ISSUED IYEBY TBUB8D1T. J. D. KERNODLE, Editor. $1.00 A YEAR, IN ADVANCE. Intared at tiie Postofflce at Grahaa. N. 0., aa aeooou-olaea matter. GRAHAM, N. C.t MAR. 20, 1928. Senator James A. Heed of Mis souri swept through the State the first of the week on a speakiug tour. He told in vivid terms and fearlessly of oil scandals aud cor ruption befogging the government ut Washington. He spoke at Chap el Hill Tuesday evening and accord ing to Tom Host, newspaper cor respondent, "enthralled" his audi ence. A number of AJamance people heard him at Chapel Hill and they were most favorably im pressed. Mr. Heed is It candidate 'for the Democratic nomination for president, and, whether nominated not, he is telling the people of the short-comings of the ruling party and of things they ought to know and think about. The death of James P. Cook of Concord last Friday was a distinct loss to the State. He was founder and father of the Jackson Training School near Concord. Single hand ed, he taught the State that the sav ing of wayward boys for good citi zenship, rather than turning thsm over to convict camps to be molded into hardened criminals, was a work worth while. What he started in a small way is now a State institution and valuable asset for salvaging character and the uplift, of those who would most likely become a menace to society and a liability to the State at large. German airmen, now in Ireland, are waiting for favorable weather to hop off on Kurope-to-America flight. In the face of the fortunes that have befallen the attempts heretofore rngje, the pair have an intrepidity that should at least excite admira tion. There is something in an oversea westward flight that has not yet been satisfactorily solved. Mr. H. Fran Crawford Die* in Tenn. Mews has been received here of the death of H. Fran Crawford at hie home at Williston, Tenn., on the night of March 14th. He was the son of the late Samuel Crawford and spent his voung manhood at the Crawford home near the railroad just north of Graham. In the early 70'e he went to Tenn. and engaged in farming and merchandising. He was a substantial and esteemed citizen in his adopted home In the year 1877 he returned to Graham and Aarried Mrs. Ann Eley, daugh ter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Peter R. Harden. She died about two years ago. Mr. Crawford was about 78 years of age. He bad eleven brothers and sialera and is survived by Mrs. Emma Cheek of San ford, W. C. Crawford of WlUiaton, Tenn., S. P. and T. L Crawford of Texas and V. W. Crawford of Greensboro; also a half brother and aister, Dr. E. A. Crawford of Meb ane and Mrs. H. C. Simpson of Greensboro. The older people who knew deoeaaed will regret to learn of his death. Superior Court Calendar Topped With 29 Divorce Com Domestic infelicity deems to be on the increase in Alamance, judg ing from the number of divorce oases listed on the calendar to be tried next week. Twenty-nine is the number?the largest number, so far aa we are informed, ever set for trial at a term of Alamance Su perior Court. Well?what's the matter? If the pace keeps np the county will have to provide a di vorce court. In addition to the divorce cases, fifty-seven other oases are calendared for hearing. Jnron For Govt Next Week.

Ambition of Camilla Jooea, Whose Milk Check Grew From 93 00 to 9234 39 in Sixteen Months. The piedmont Nortb Caroline in destined to be a great dairying sec tion, aays Mr. W. E. White of Meb ane. The Gleaner concurs with him. The Mebane Enterprise prefaces the publication of a letter from Camilla Jones as follows: Just to show what the colored people of Alamance are doing in the dairy business, we are publishing below a letter from Camilla Jones, who lives on Mebitne route 1. Six teen months ago, she says her milk check was $3.00 and for the month of January, this year, it was $234 311 and she says she wants t300.CC per month. Now that's the spirit that gets things. If this territory had a few more of this kind the condenserv would have already begun building operations. This letter was written to W W. Corbett: Dear Mr. Corbett: We are buying cows, repairing onr buildings, making tbern sani tary, ?ou know all about dairy busi ness and what we have to come up to. Sixteen months ago our first railk check was $3.00. For the month of January, 1928, our milk check was $234.39. My boys are putting out 30 gallons of milk per day from 10. cows, but we want three more cows to get 40 Stllons per day before the 15th of arch so we will get the same price all summer. We are working hard to get our milk to $300.00 per month but we cannot do it without some hetp. When you all open up a con densery in Mebane we want to put in 100 gallons a day 1 have a boy at A. <fc A. college taking special dairying. We are working aud trying to have the best colored dairy in the State and we are going to do it if our white friends will help us. So far you are doing so. Yours and oblige, CAMILLA JONES. Requesting The Gleaner to publish the foregoing, Mr. White *y?:. . This colored woman lost hor bus band a few years ago, leaving her with a poor farm two miles from Mebane, and several children; her two boys went North end located on a dairy farm; later they returned home, determined to make good in dairyiug. They commenced opera-: tion sixteen months ago with twoi cows. Their first check amounted to $3.00, and in January, sixteen montLs later, $234.39. This is an objoct lesson which might be fol lowed profitably, not only by our negro farmers but white farmers as, well. New Service Station on Court House Square. The owner*, H. J. Stockard and J. M.
