Maj. S. P. Boddie was then presen
ted and made a most interesting- talk
on the bravery of the boys who cross
ed over the Atlantic and failed the
puns of the eqemy, giving many ex
periences in battle and recounting the
many brave deeds accomplished. His
address was more than interesting
and pictured scenes that were almost
unimaginable to one who had not been
present and witnessed the many try
ing scenes that tested the true man
hood that our boys were well ondowed
with. In a solo Miss Dodson render
ed "In Flanders Field's" by Joseph

occasion and he delivered one of the
strongest and most. Interesting addres.
*es on the "Spirit of the Times" where
in he pictured the true meaning of Am
erioanrfSm and its necessity in the pre
sent ?lay that has been heard here in
many days. Rev. Mr. Love in these
few minutes far exceeded the expecta
tions of his many friends on- this oc
r.tsion and ?lt. was generally agreed
that the only trouble with his address
was it was too short.
Prayer and benediction' was offered
by Kev. G. F. Smith, the paitor, at
t lie close of one of the most interest
ing services of its kind ever h'eld in
the Louisburg Methodist Church be

Washington, Nov. 18.?The whofe
Mexican situation, including the ar
rest of Wm, O. Jenkins, American
consular agent at Puebla and oil leg
islation. was discussed today by Pres
ident Wilson's cabinet but if any de
cision was reached It was not made
known.
Secretary I^arh^ing, who presided, re
fused to Bay what took place but Sec

parently was unable to "find out any

cesslve Prices. . * *^2
Washington, Nov. 18 ?a^?
with the authority of President Wttt*
son's, Cabinet, Fuel /vflnrtniBtratbr
Qarfleld told representatives of f"*
bitumionu8 coal operators and mine,
here today that Vthe people of the Xju
ted States need, must fcave and 1
have coal, and as long as the Gove. *??
ment stands they w?ll not be preveii^j
ed from getting it by "anything the ow
erators or miners may do."
Dr. Garfield explained that his pueV
pose wjas to furniBh the conference the'
data which he would use in determin
ing what wage advances, ir any, agreed
to by the operators and miners, could
be borne properly by the public. "/2
"The people of the United States arc
willing to pay sufficient to maintain^
American standards., but the question
is, What are American standards?
The people want the operator* to hare
a Just return, but what is just re-,
turn?"
"We all realize that in the g^eat coal
industry the public is an important
partner. At one time the operators
and mine workers, like farmers* con
sidered themselves peculiarly inde
pendent. But the public has a para
mount interest.
"The people of the United States i{tU
not consent to pay an excessive price
for coal. We are all agreed to that,
but .the question now fs,"*wftfij is an
excessive price?' Nor will the people
agrefe to go wythout this commodity,
j "The people of the United States,
j need, and must have and will have
coal and they will not be prevented by
[anything the operators and miners
may do unless the government is dis
solved into a chaotic condition.
"I represent the people of the Unit
ed States in a different sense from the
(Secretary of Labor." Dr. Garfield said.
|"It is part of Mr. Wilson's function to
? effcct conciliation. It is my sole
! function to exerci&e those powers con
ferred on the Fuel Administrator to
see that an adequate supply of coal is
furnished the people of the United Sta
I tes and to see th.n in times of stress
!such as we are sfcill unhappily in the
midst of the prices asked and received
,for coal are not excessive."
I "In 1917." Dr. Garfield, said, "the
i taxes amounted to 30c a ton average
iiMtHK-miJM-iium
t'n 1918, however, to come out of the
margins, are somewhat less, I be
lieve, than in 1917, but I will continue
my investigation to detqrmine_^then>
accurately."
"Do you think the mine Workers
should give consideration to the oper
ators because they have to pay taxes?"
asked John L. Lewis, president of the
United Mine Workers.
"The question is whether the con
sumer should pay enough to cover the
excess profits tax at the "same time
give the operators their normal pro
fit too," replied Dr. Garfield.
"If the Federal government?took
all the profits, by taxation, even that
circumstances should not prevent the
miners from asking reasonable in
creases," said Lewis.
"Well, we must bear in mind that
the Lever act guarantees a reasonable
profit on the production of fuel, re
turned Dr. Garfield. "Congress is
responsible for all tax enactments."

PROG K AM.
^Deserving ;u> t iTfi^r times
l.iiser than rfreone winch assembled
torium, the Danish violinist. Axel Skov
'guard (pronounced Scow-gaw) played
a program of rare beauty.
Easily ranking with Ysaye, Kubelik
-and other great violinists of today, he
plays with authority,, fire and splen
did-technique. His deep fervor in
numbers like the concerto of Mendels
sohn and the Chopin nocturne gives
[place to a playful delicacy in rendi
l tiona like Boccherini's minuet and
Chammenade's Spanish Serenade. His
work-is so satisfying that each mim
! ber seems better than the one pre
I o ding it, and the applause proved that
I any lack in numbers present was made
[up in enChusiasm on the part of the
i audience.
! The violinist was generous with en
it ores, playing Traumerei, ttie Suwan
(nee River, a lovely little Danish Rong
laitd at the last, the Star Spangled
banner.
He plays with both brains and emo
tion, and his strong, true bowing
brings out the exquisite tone of his
wonderful instrument.
Madame Alice McCluing Skovgaard
?(-companies her husband with rare
delicacy and sympathy. She played,
for her solo number. Liszt's Polonaise
in E major in a thoroughly artistic
manner, being insistently encored.
Slie is a most charming woman, grace
ful and winsome. One of the audi
ence remarked, of the violinist: "Skov
taard isn't a bit of a freak, but a de
lightfully appearing, wholesome gen- I
tleman and a genuine artist."
The vocal numbers or tlie evening i
gave a perfect finish to the program, j
The singer was Miss Blossom Wilcox, j
an American product whose voice is i
fresh, sweet and used w'th artistic I
freedom. She is entirely free from
nwannerism, and has exceptional!/
good enunciation. With attractive
informality she announced her own
number. First Mi?a Wilcox sang a ,
Jittle French folk song, in costume, |
and "My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice." '
from Samson and Delilah. As an en
core she gave "The Rosary." Her t
second group included three little |
songs?"Sweet Miss Mary." "Spring,"
and "Keep on Hoping." each charm
ingly sung. Miss Wilcox has studied
only ?in America and is proof that one
iloes not need foreign training to be a :
finished singer. Her bachelor degree
in music is from Oberlin Conservatory
>f Mus?c. and she was 'trained and
?oached by Frank La Forge and Dr. |
Frederick Bristol in New York. In .
private life Miss Wilcox is Mrs. Silvia

PrankVln Superior Court for the tri
al of civil cases came to & close on
Wednesday at noon wheit the docket
flhowed that everything that was ready
for trial had been disposed of Judge
Guieq, who was presiding, handled the
business of the Court 'In a very satis
factory and pleasing manner for all
concerned and as a result of his strict
application to business many cases of
long standing were disposed of. Nb
cases of any public importance was
called and therefore no great public
interest was manifested. At the wind
up resolutions as follows were unani
mously adopted by the Bar:
Whereas, the Hon. O. H. Guion,
Judge of the Superior Court has just
completed his servuee as presiding
judge the civil and criminal terms of
the Superior Court of Franklin Coun- 1
ty for the half year beginning July 1?"I
1919, and the Bar of said county speak
ing for itself and tke people of the
county desire to give public expression
I to their appreciation of the high value
of said service,
i Therefore be it resolved: That by
I his fairness, promptness, flrmncBfe and
courtesy as presiding judge, Hon. O.
H. Guion has gained the admiration
and confidence of the bar and people
of Franklin County and by his splen
did legal attainments and fine execu
tive ability, has so administered the
civil and criminal courts of the coun
ty as to have finally relieved the lon&
standing congestion of the dockets and
to have promoted and advanced the
principles of justice which should gov
ern the enforcement of the law.
That he leaves the Court with the
