MRS. D. C. HIGH DEAD
Sadness and sympathy was broad
cast over Loulsburg Tuesday after
noon as the announcement of the
death of Mrs. D. C. High made Its
way about our community. The end
came about 3 o'clock and closed a
most useful and unselfish life. Mrs.
High, who was a consistent and de
voted member of Loulsburg Baptist
church, lived her religion In her daily
life serving those In trouble and sor
row. She was happiest when doing
a real service for a friend and neigh
bor, apparently looking upon it as the
greatest work one could do in the ser
vice of Christ. Those Into whose
hopes she has been a real comforter
will know her best and miss her most.
She was a most devoted wife and
mother.
Mrs. High was born at Plymouth
and was the daughter of Mr. Joseph
Blount Qrlffin and Ann Maria Nichols
Griffin, and vf as married to Mr, Doc
tor Clayton High on December 21st,
188W. to which union there were born
four children, Miss Annie Joe High,
who preceeded her mother to the
grave several years ago, Mrs. G. R.
McGrady and Mr. C. W. High, of
Raleigh, and Mrs. N. B. Allsbrook, of
Smithfield, the last three surviving
and being with their mother when
the end came. She Is also survived
by her husband. Mr. D. C. High, and
a neice. Miss Fannie Griffin, of At
lantic City, and a nephew, Mr. W. H
Griffin, of New York. She was the
last of a family of ten children, and
was 65 years of age.
"Smooth the locks of silver hair,
On our mother's brow with tenderest
care,
Gather the robe hi final fold
Around the form so still and cold;
Lay on her bosom, pure as snow.
The fairest, sweetest flowers that
grow,
Kiss her and leave her our hearts de
light;
Her pain is over, she sleeps tonight."
The funeTal services were held from
the home on West Nash Street at 3:30
o'clock Wednesday afternoon and
were conducted by her pastor, Rev.
J. A. Mclver, assisted by Rev. L. E.
Thompson of the Louisburg Metho
dist church, after which the remains
were gently borne to Oaklawn ceme
tery and laid to rest beside her daugh
ter. Large crowds ot sorrowing
friends and relatives attended and a
choir sweetly sang appropriate hymns
at each service. The floral tribute
was profuse and beautiful, and spoke
a love and esteem Impossible for
words.
The pall bearers were as follows:
Honorary? Capt. L. L. Joyner, P. B.
Griffin, W. D. Egerton, W. N. Fuller.
L. Kline, Dr. W. B. Morton. W. L.

come of tho hostess, the bright cheer
ful Are flickering on the hearth and
the warm glow of the lights soon
made the guests forget the patter of
the rain and sighing of the wind on
the outside.
No business coming before the Cluh
after the reading of minutes and roll
call, the program for tne afternoon
was Immediately taken up. 'Twai in
deed an evening with China, the Riv
ers for study being "The Yangtse Ki
ang and Hoangho". Mrs. U. E. Scoggln
prepared a rery entertaining paper on
these rivers, which In her absence,
was read by Mrs. J. L. Palmer. She
gave many geographical facts which
recalled our hard days of studying
geography, pouring over China, but
many more new and more recent facts
of which we have never learned, all
adding to our Interest In China and
her people. It's an unusual honor for
a Club to have a real composer as
a member, but such Miss Williams
proved herself to be when she played
one of her own compositions, "Chi
nese March". Mrs. W. E. White In a
Selected Reading told of many unique
customs of the Chinese. A Chinese
song, "The Mlllkln Man", duet, by Mrs
White and Miss Williams was one of
the most enjoyable features of the
afternoon. Mrs. J. B. Yarborough pre
pared and read a very Instructive
Current Event, "The Pollticlal Situ
ation In Oklahoma," The Club is al
ways delighted when it is announced
that "Mrs. King will read for us," and
this time was no exception, for she
could not have made a more beauti
ful selection than "The Song of the
Camp" by Bayard Taylor. As p fitting
conclusion of the program Miss Wil
liams played "Chinese Picnic".
Mrs. Clifton assisted by her daugh
ters. Miss Elizabeth and little Sophia
Boyle, served a delicious ice course.

Dellwrten Increase.
(S. D. Prlaml)
Convictions were secured against
six auction warehousemen of South
Boston last Monday and fines ware
imposed in every case for violation
of the recent statue in Vlrgftafta.
which requires that alt tobaoeo Nil
on the open floor, as well as the co
operative warehouses, shall be aold
in the true name of the owner and
makes It a misdemeanor for any me
conducting a w?*house to tail- to
tag such tobacco with the name of
the owner and the number of pounds
sold.
One of the convictions obtained
this week at South Boston was for
refusal of an auction warehouseman
to permit representatives of the co
operative association to Inspect the
tickets on the tobacco in his ware
house. It Is expected that prosecutions
will be Instituted at otier points Im
mediately, and In view of last Man
day's decisions It is believed that auc
tion warehousemen in 'Virginia will
comply more strictly with the recemt
law. All of the warehousemen of
South Boston who were convicted and
toed last Monday under the Virginia
statue, have appealed to the circuit
ccurt of Halifax County.
L. G. Patterson, warehouseman of
Smlthfleld. N. C., also felt the weight
of the law this week when adjudged
in contempt of court by Judge Thcs.
H. Calvert, of Wake County Superior
Court, at Raleigh, for aiding A. L.
Faulkner to sell tobacco in violation
of a court order. Faulkner, who was
a member of the association, had al
ready been attached for contempt and
titled (50 by Judge Frank A. Daniels

from the Leaf Department of the
association received this week at
Raleigh headquarters. In spite of the
lateness of the Old Belt crop, tobacco,
fanners have delivered more than
six and a half million pounds within
less than ten days of operation by
the cooperative warehouses. The as
sociation has made a striking gain
jn the South Carolina Belt, where
it has received thirty-two and a half
million pounds to date, as compared
to slightly more than twenty million
pounds for the entire season of 1922.
Eastern Carolina growers are lncreas
ing their deliveries to the association
and will bring half again as much
tobacco as last year, if the present
rate of deliveries to association hous
es continues.
