_ THE FRANKLIN TIMES 7 > J? A. F. JOHXSON, Editor and Mjuuwvr Oh Tear fl.&o ? i Eight Months 1.00 Six Months 76 Months 60 T Foreign Advertising K< | THE AMERICAN PRESS RepnKntBtlve ASSOCIATION 1 Sintered at the Post Office at Louls _ knrg, N. C., as second class matter. I ton riniH" Kitchen believes that the Democrats have a chance to or ganize Congress. Lets hope so. The United Ststes^ Supreme Court has just handed down a decision barr ing the Japanese irom becoming nat uralized in the United Slates. Newspaper reports the pest week say that ex-President Wilson will have r. a great Influence to naming the next "Democratic Candidate tor President. RECORDERS COURT On Thursday or last week t'<ie Board of County Commissioners arbitrarily established a Recorders Court for Franklin County, and through It cre ated two new public dfflces and a very real possibility tor the third. Lets hope this court, now tnat we have it, will be an advantage to the county. However, to many there appears no good save to those who will be favored with the offices, and that in so far as the salary is concerned. A Record ers Court may be good for a t>ig, heav ily populated County but there Is not much hope for benefits in a small county that already has more Court time than it needs. Its true it will receive fees, and until the salaries art Increased, which will in all probabil ity come, it may be self sustaining, but aB these fees have been being paid in to other offices, from which to pay Balaries, what will take their place and provide the difference. F?nan. cially it is taking from tme pocket to put in another, and then to look up something to fill the first. The fact that so many counties tnat have tried the Recorders Court, have done away with it is proof that it is not satisfac tory. > Franklin does uot^necd :t. Quly a few years ago. y^irajr after it had been defeated by a vote of Che people of the County, the County had a docket filled with ten years of ac cumulated cases besides tnree or more terms that had been passed over with out any Court, on account of the flu ?nd the war, and Judge Guion came to Franklin and cleaned ^hoth the crimi nal and civil dockets in^^jj^erms. A big objection is that it introduclii local politics int:> our Court system that can be nothing else except a bad Influence. The argutaent that a jury can be had for the asking is no ad vantage. as it is only natural that the Court would be prejudiced against any person taking such a stand. However one c' the greater objec tions is the trouble !t will give the farmers in crop time try trie interfer ence with their work when their forco is called to dSourt, every Monday. The saving the County will make in the cost of feediup prisoners await ing Court will be offset tnany times by the extra cost of thij Court. And we don't believe that the saving any where else will b-.? sufficient to or con sidered. It will certainly open an other channel of escaping Justice. It is generally conceded that one of the greatest influences in establishing this Court was tl.e action In the last primary when Franklin again lost a place in the represe ntation of this ju dicial district and also the feeling -aroused against the new solicitor. Its a pity that personal feelings of this kind could b? Injected Into public matters. There have been ho many references to Warren County in the discussions Of this Court we will call your atten tion to the fact that there la not an other county In the State that can .compare with our slater County al_ though they have all h?* tlie same op portunity. For some reason Warren County operates It r, buamesa In a bus lneas like way that has kept It out of ^ debt and put money In the treasury. Franklin has never seen the day it fcOuM boast of like conditions. The ' fclm?t reaaon we know of la there S are entirely too many of us who are ' Mdfclnf advantage* for ourselves or the ?Attifactton of our personal de ?ire. ?rather than the Intereet of our TttbHe-^peUtutlons.

The Commissioners made a mistake by not putting this question to a vote. The principles of Democracy and *o( the American people are to let the people rule, arid when this is trampled the people rightly rebel. ORGANIZATION OF LOl'ISBl/KU WOMAN'S 1 LIB On Monday morning, October 30th an enthusiastic group consisting of thirty-four Louisburg women jueL in the office of Mr. E. Bea* to con sider the advisability of organizing a Woman's CJub for Louisburg. Mi 8. J. W. Manu being Vice.

RKSOLl'TIONS In behalf of the Board- of 'Stewards of the Methodist Church of Loulsburg, we desire to express our sense of deep appreciation of the io^al minis trations of our beloved pastor. Rev. G. F. Smith during the eight years of hts service among us . It is- given to few minister* ot Um Church Soujb to apend a?-loogj a Hme "With one peoplfe, and wevknow of no one who could have filled the place so adequately, who would have taken with him on leaving so much of the love and good will of those whom it has been his ixleasure to serve. Brother Smith's service has been tee of love. He really loves every human being with whom he comes in | contact, and his aaily life is as an open book from which "he who runs jnay read." It is a repetition of the on the Mount and the Golden Rule^^l^rh is another way of saying that he apHjes the Christian princi ples of life. He practices wharh(i, preaches!Sd lowing no error *or guile in his conS duct of his discourses. Open and above-board vji his dealings with every one, he is honest and loyal to his peo ple. He makes no attempt to curry favor v ith men by compromising -with the facts in the case. He is no man-pleas |er; he ^ceks for the approval of God, and is satisfied only when ^Jod who proves the hearts of men fe pleased | with him. Brother Smith is no self. seeker ? he is a consecrated follower of the meek; and lowly Jesus, endeavoring always tc allay distress and remove heart- 1 aches, to bring more of loving com fort, Joy and gladness into the hearts | of the people With whom he comes in J contact. Then being close kin to the Master A follows that eight years o? his spec ial effort among this "people has been crowned with real success and all Ixmisburg is better and richer in the faith which he loves because of the influence he has weilded without fear or favor, therefore, be it resolved: First, That In the removal pf Broth er Smith from this pastorate to an. other field of labor, the Board of Stew ards will lose a sympathetic friend, a peace-giving counsellor, and a loving brother. Second, That we extend our heart felt thanks to Mrs. Smith, his faith ful co. worker, who has been constant In season and out, always In a cheer ful manner, performing her duties In the spirit of the Master wtiom she loves. Third. That we pray Conference may send ihese friends of ours to a field of great opportunity and happy work, that others whose lives they touch may 1>e enabled and enriched by the asso ciation. Fourth, That these mentations be spread on our minutes and a copy be sent /to the FRANKLIN TIMK8. Respectfully submitted, MR8. M. C. PLEA8ANT8, GEO. W. MURPHY, M. 8. DAVIS.

While in St. Paul, your scribe went thru the West Publishing House that turns out tons ot law books and law literature every day. In one ot the editorial rooms I met a gentleman who had been reading and digesting the decisions of Coutls for thirty odd yeurs. He was as familiar with the personelle of our court as I ant"-. He said Chief Justice Clark writes as force tul as he ever did, and that Justice Walker's sentences do not shorten any. Kid that your youngest Justice Stacy bids fair to be a wheel horse on the bench. He showed me some decis ions fts legal curiosities from other states, that no man cctlld intelligently interpret them and tell what -they meant. Other courts in other states write cloudy decisions as wei! as ours. We left St. P$ul at 8 p. m. Aug. 23rd for our last step to Chicago, our starting point on the 30th of July. The ladies on my coach had a surprise par ty for me. They found out that the 24th of Aug. was my birthday. So they prepared a glided basket and fill, ed it with all kinds of fruit, and deco rated it with red bunting, and about nine o'clock sent for me, and after three or four speeches from them, in which they said many nice things and complimjents concerning your depo nent, presented me with the basket of fruit. Useless to say I had to respond my affections and thanks. I want to say that this crowd was composed of the nicest and brlgbtest characters I ever came in contacl with. Among them were many Judges, authors, book writers and poets. The Poet Laureaterahip by common consent was bestowed upon Mrs. F. P. Holding, of West Chester, Penn. It is poetically fitting and just that I should conclude these my wanderings and adventures in Bohemia- Ijand, with one of her gems. In Sofi Places Co*ie walk the windy heights with me. And feel the furious gusts that blow Across y&ur brow, and watch below The mighty trees that bend and bow To their all-conquering Deity. Come walk with me in forests deep, Where ail is still save for the cry. Of some wild bird flung out on high, Or murmuring wind whose lullaby Sings the undying trees J.q sleep. W. M. PERSON. , (finis.) THE MWfAIfS AUXILIARY OF ST. PAUL'S CHURCH The hour of meeting for the Wom an's Auxiliary has been changed from fcur to three.thlrty o'clock p. m., on the first and third Mondays of each month. At the last meeting, with Mrs. R. F. Yarborough, Jr. twelve members were in attendance. In the absence of tne President. Mrs. M. S. Clifton, Mrs. Malcolm McKinne presided, opening the meet ing wfth Creed and prayer. A very enjoyable program ensued. Mrs. R. F. Yarborough told the story of St. Hilda, the Abbess, who played an important part in Christian civilization. Though a nun she was | accorded rink with the monks and ' was given the title of "Saint" among tbem. Thinking now of "Women's Rights," as something new, it is well to remember Abbess Hilda of the year 670, who ruled and taught a great col lege of Clergy, which gave England some of its best bishops. t!i3 story or the Venerable Bede, "that lovely and gentle saifit, prince or historians," as told by Mrs. Yarborough showed how well those early Christians knew how to die. Miss Mary Yarborough recited the history of the Danish Inrc-jion uppn Abgland, telling how these Vikings, worshipers of "Woden", slew, pillag ed \nd burnt as they went, sweeping awa\ the learning and splendor that Christianity had given to England. It was wljth pleasure, though, that all heard acr recital of tne lire of King Alfred \he Great, that loved King, who sa^ed England from extermina tion ani misery. "England's Dar. ling" as he was called was then and Is after a thousand years, an abiding In spiration to the English. Mrs. S. P. Boddie gave a graphic account of the Norman conaiffest, with its horror of blood shed^nd devasta tion, but showed how the end it proved a boon to th^TCngllsh church, a period of "granc^fGeals and noble venture" following. This she show ed in telling the story of William the Conqueror and Sanfranc, his friend and adviser. /? Mrs. Malcolm McKJnne closed the study for the afternoon with the ap pealing story of St. Thomas a' Becket, Archbishop of Canter oury, "so emi nent for sanctity and statesmanship," vho suffered to tha death, for the cause of Christianity, being fouly mur dered. Mrs. James King concluded, the program with fitting and appro priate reading from Longfellow's, "The Golden Legend." Following the study of the monks in real fife, all heard with sympathetic Interest, this Imaginative tale so beautirully Inter preted by Mrs. King.

BARACA-PHIL A1HEA UNION The Union met with the classes at Justice, Nov. 4-5. R6v. J, A. Mclver, of the Louisburg Baptist church, preached a most poxv-j trful sermon, Saturday afternoon, tak . ing as his text John 3-16. His sub- | ject was "God's love for man". His ?k>V3 Includes the African as well aa j the American, the criminal as well as ! the non-criminal. Christ went about doing good, and that is what Baraca's and Phllathea .should uu. We wish all could have hejird him, on this great subject. Saturday ev ening, Prof. Sexton gave us a very cordial welcome and then conducted tbe devotional exercises, using as his Scripture lesson, James 1-19:27. We were very fortunate to have our State JPhilathea President, Miss Mary McElwee, from Henderson, with ua. She was recognized and gave us a short talk. We had Misses Petty, Padwick and Daniel? from the Louisburg College with us and their music and reading was enjoyed very much. After some special music by the Misses Gregor, the Baracas and Phlla theas of Just^ete- gave us a marriage of the organized classes Into the church . _ Sunday morning. Rev. A. Corey, pastor of the church, conducted >htr devotional exercises. Mrp. J. F. Mltchlnei" told about h6r I trip to. the State Convention, at Hen dersonville. after which we had the roll call, with twenty-four classes rep resented. We had one new class to come into ther Union. The Jr. Bara. cas of Justice. Prof. R. L. Flowers, of Trinity Col lege, gave a most helpful address to young men and women. He said, ?'they should be marching together un der different colors. If the flag of the Cross was put over the world the Christian people could forget the things that separate them and come together, __ One crowd Is for changing every thing the other for changing nothing. We are both wrong. You can't make youth see what old age has found out. The chief concern is our moral and spiritual concern." I am uure we all hope to have Prof. Flowers with us again. We again had Bome special music by Miss Petty, also by the I'hilatheas from Franklinton. Of course we were all glad to hear the next part of the program announced, as tsoso of us who had been there before knew what to expect, for the good women of Jus tice know how to cook. I am sure we enjoyed that to the utmost. We had a round table discussion by Miss Ruth Alford, Mr. Forest Joyner Prof. Sexton, Mr. J. W. Daniel, Mlsw Vera Burnette, Prof. T. H. Sledge Mr. J. A. Wheless and Miss Clara Long. Mrs. H. M. Finch 6T Rocky Mount, gave us the "Impersonation of Ell. Jah's Flight to Heaven," then Bhe spoke on "Har far Ellsha had to go to re ceive the Mantle." Of course we all want Mrs . Finch to be with us again . The Judges decided the Banner class es were .the White Level Jr. Phlla thea and the Bunn Baraca, and Mr. B. W. Ballard presented the Banners In a most Impressive way. We meet In May, 1923, with the Meth cdlst and Baptist classes of Frank linton . Please see If every class In the County can be represented, as you don't know what you miss when you stay away. We all felt It was good to he at Justice. ? _ Bessie Strange, 8ec'y. o ; , DIES AT REX HOSPITAL Charles Woodrow Foster, the sixteen months old son of Mr. and Mrs. 8. C.
