from Mr. J. J. Barrow, regarding a
letter he has received from Col. A. D.
To the Editor of The" Franklin Times:
As there has been some misunder
standing in regard. to the report of the
horizontal cut in the revaluation of
the property in this County, I have a
letter from the StatQ Tax Commission
answer to an inquiry about the mat
tcr, the following is a copy of a clause
which bears directly on me question:
"All counties making a horizontal
reduction, will certify their final ac
tion to the Board by t^ie 15th day of
June, etc." This gives Franklin Co
unty till the 15th day of June, 1921, to
make their Report on the horizontal
reduction. .Please publish the above
for the benefit of the public.

rector, had to be postponed till Tues
day night. The play was a Greek
_soene_on the outskirts of a Forest at
the foot of Mount Olympus, and was
presented in three acts. Those tak
ing part in iu rendition were thorough,
mastera of their casts and were equal
'to expert actors. The costumes were
e.s peel any oeautirut andvery elabo
rate. Quite a large crowd were pres
ent and pronounced it as one of the
best piays ever given on the College
Campus.
Wednesday morning was the occas
'foii of tin* comment'emem Exercises
at the College and quite a number of
people, both home folks and visitors
were present to witness the exercises,
which were opened with a hymn,
"Faith of our Fathers." Invocation
was offered by Rev. J. H. Shore, after
which Miss Rena Baum rendered a
? l'iapp. agio, "Murmuring Zephyrs" by
Jensen, in a most skillful and enter
laining manner. The next number on
the program was the Literary address
by Dr. G. T. Rowe, editor North Car
olina Christian Advocate, which was
truly a literary genv. Without anno
uncing his subject Dr. Rowe deliver
ed an unusually strong address around
the theme of the power of Education,
pointing out that the thing that distin
guished man from other species of
life was his ability to be educated.
Following his idea that the limits to
the power of education were practi
cally unbounded, he illustrated by ref
erence to the great human war machine
Germany and the Central Powers had
builded irp. Then the speaker blend
ed a beautiful contrast to show that
Christian education ha? so many un
limited advantages over material edu
cation, In that it employes ones every
ability to the work of the Master
and thereby building up a life and
country for good. His emphasis of
the individuality of man In its efforts
to please God Almighty was beautiful
find exceedingly impressive. Dr.
Rowe's address was a well prepared
document, excellently delivered to the
great pleasure of his many hearers.

' peoplo of the Prospect District to the
Graded School Bonds. Laot year th

I Graded School District nnd pay the
j 53 1-8 cent tax. We understand that
| the vast majority of the people of the
I Prospect District are pleased with th
j la ehibftga md feel that their children
| are making better educational pro
they are asked to vote for bonds for a

sential if we desire to improve the
j sohool or even keep -tip past standards
If the majority of the voters should
I vote for bonds it could not mean an in
crease of more than 20 cents on the
; $100.00. Now if the people of Pros
pect District would vote a 53 cent tax
I last year to come into Louisburg Dis
j trict. will they refuse to vote a 20 cent
tax to proper equip the school. If a
? man spent- his motwy to plant a crop
jit would seem bad policy for him to
refuse to provide buildings to take
care of that crop. The people of Pros

| when they came into the. Louisburg
| Graded School District and we believe
| that, if those people will stop to think
they will follow up thehir action by
