Bunn News
On last Friday, July 4, the people of
our town cladiy greeted an immense
crowd that thronged our streets from
i earlv morning until late in the after
noon.
We were glad to see wagons, bug
gies and automobiles coming in from
several of the surrounding counties.
-sThe' crowd began to arrive about 8
o'clock and continued pouring in until
more than two thousand marched up to
the new school building to witness the
l?st of the twenty fat pigs so gener
ously given by Mr. R. L. Hnffines, of
Rocky Mount, which was nicely|divided
among the large crowd. In addition to
the barbecue, the people of the com
? muni ty very generously contributed an
abundant supply of bread, cakes, and
such dainties as was readily found be
pleasing to the palate.
During the time that the crowd
thronged around the building the Wom
en,! Betterment Association had sev
eral boys busy selling cool drinks while
they were busy with their elegant Ba
zaar exhibit which not only turned out
a nice sum of money for them, but
they gave a splendid example of what
can be done by the united effort of the
good women of a community.
After the crowd was well fed we wit
nessed one of the hardest fought games
of baseball that has been played here
for vears. It seemed at first that Jus
tice was no match for New Hope, but
they tied in the seventh inning, and
played through the thirteenth without
breaking the tie, whioh satisfied both
?ides that either team was fully equal
to the other, so both were willing to
stop with a score of seven runs for
each team.
At evening, commencing at 8o'clock,
the crowd that remained was pleasant
ly entertained by a play given in the
school auditorium by the Betterment
Association entitled "A Box of Mon
keys." The main features of the eve
ning was a paper by Miss Rebecca Hol
HnifS worth and a Recitation by Miss
Nolia Wright. Both are splendid young
ladles, and they acted their part with
credit to themselves. The play was al
so made more attractive By the elegant
string band from Justice.
v After the play the Women's Better
ment Association reported that they had
taken in during the day and from the
results of the play the neat sum of
$121.41, which will be used to equip the
new school building with pictures and
such things as are necessary. ?
We are especially proud of the ef
forts of the Betterment Association, for
we feel that their untiring teat will ter>
mislte In something good for our town.
At the close we were pleased at the 1
ovation given Prof. J. M. Broughton, ?
Jr., who is our former principal of the I
school. Mr. Broughton is a young man
of unusual talent and we feel very !
much indebted to him for what our
School stands for, and while we no
longer can have him with us, we ex
tend our appreciation of bis work in
the past and wish him much success in
his practice in law.
