SPELLING MATCH
I
On Monday night a large crowd col
lected In the court house for a spell
ing match. The object of the meet- 1
Ing was for the benefit of the Lunch
room at the graded school. The con
teat was between the Fats and Loans.
One of the Fats was requested to give
out the words. Mr. Mac ' Furgurson
headed the fat side and went down
and out on "casslmere". Likewise Dr.
S. P. Burt and when "spiraea" was of
fsred them nearly all the Fat side
failed and took their seats. Edward
Griffin died on "embarrass". "Embe
clle" found many victims on the lean
side, while "syrlnga" met and created
many fatalities.
On the second round Dr. Burt went
to sleep nn "Icefloe." W. D. Egerton
headed the Leans and finally went out
on a simple word. After much fun,
merriment and Instruction. Jones
Parham was the last one up.
Thus ended one of the most enter
tatning and instructive meetings had
in town for some time. Spelling un
der the modern system of Instruction
Is almost a lost art. Not all of us can
be a John Allen, but we should all be
able to spell correctly the words In
dally use In polite circles.

BARBECUE SUPPER TUESDAY
Given Bjr Business Men's Association 1
To County Commissioners, Board oi !
Trade and Other Guests.
The Business Men's Association en- ,
tertained the County Commissioner*,
the T oba*?o Board of Trade and a
number of invited guests at a delight
ful barbecue supper on Tuesday night
in Dr. A. H. Fleming's office.
After all present had enjoyed to the
fullest extent the delicious and and
well prepared cue, President M. S.
Davis announced that one of the pur- 1
poses of this meeting was to discuss j
good roads. Pointing to a map he had |
prepared he showed that the State had
built good roads all around us. He
thought it time for the business men
to do something. Speaking of the
county system he said the roads were
built all right but the trouble with
them was the maintenance.
Mayor Joyner pointing to the suc
cess the Business- Men's Association
had made with the tobacco market
stated that we could attain a like suc
cess in our eftortB for better roads if
we would work together.
Mr. S. A. Newell in discussing the
road law stated that the object was to
connect County seats, but at present
we are connected with only one Coun
ty seat ? Nashville ? and not only Is
the road not hard surfaced but Is not
even built from Castalia to Nashville.
He thought that a united effort should
be made to get more roads to come
to the County seat.
Mr. T. W. Ruffin thought we need
more co-operation, taking the posi
tion that if we go after more State
roads with more unity and determina
tion we would get more results. He
thought we should make some efforts
towards building up roads that would
be feeders for Louisburg, the County
seat. Pointing out that if we keep
sending our dollars away from home
it would not be long before we would
have none at home to send.
Supt. W. R. Mills pointed 'out that
good roads and good schools go hand
in hand. That a good school could
be of little value to a community un
less the roads were such that the
children could get to the school.
Pres. A. W. Mohn, of Louisburg Col
lege. thought that the people in the
; County should be as much interested
I in good roads as the people in town.
He referred to the improvements soon
' to be made to the College and the
. plans that had been made.
Mr. Renfrow In speaXing in behalf
| of the tobacco market stated that If
I Louisburg expected to have a market
^ It would have to have roads over
which farmers could^fl-ing their to
bacco to the market. Referring to the
tobacco market he stated the people
of Louisburg needed to co-operate
^ore. that more warehouse room
would have to be provided and better
j storage accommodations secured.
Mr. F. J. Beasley assumed the ar
ranging of storage houses and was
; sure that the warehouses would be
enlarged or new ones built. He re
| ferred to the College to explain the fi
i nancing of the new project in the sale
I of bonds and explained the bonds.
Dr. A. H. Fleming recited the his
tory of this Association stating that a
j year ago eight or ten men met in his
office and started what has now grown
to be a real live association. One of
our greatest needs now is a larger
membership, he said, and a campaign
will soon be put on.
Judge G. M. Beam, Secretary of the
Association, spoke of the fine co-op
erative, and unselfish spirit he had
seen all through the workings of the
Association.
Mr. J. R. Jones of the Board of Coun
ty Commissioners, thought the road to
Frankllnton was all right and that the
new road project was all folly. He
alBo thought the County should be on
a County road unit.
Mr. A. W, Person spoke very encour
agingly of the cotton market.
The meeting was then opened for a
round table discussion after which a
most enjoyable evening came to a
close.

MRS. W. H. MACON DEAD
Mrs. W. H. Macon died at her home
on Church Street Wednesday morn
ing at 5:40 In her flfty-aixth year,
leaving her husband, and four child
ren grief stricken.
Mrs. Macon was Miss Lizzie Jones
before hef marriage to Mr." W. Henr>
Macon on October 4thy'vr$B87. The
children surviving her ar%l?r. E. Jones
Macon, of Aberdeen. M?lk Prank F.
Fagan. of Rocky Mount, Mr. Sebastian
Macon, of Spring Hope, and Miss Gen
evieve Macon, of Loulsburg. She was
a true Christian and a faithful mem
ber of Loulsburg Methodist Church.
She was a true friend, and her de
Lvotion to those she loved would make
a bright chapter in any life. Nothing
j but the thought of a loving hand that
has removed her can reconcile her ab
sence. While she has pone from the
scenes the conflicts, the sorrows and
pleasures of life, she will still live in
tho hearts of those who knew her best.
Her retiring nature led her to hide
her best qualities, but they were re
vealed to those who enjoyed her ac
qpaintances, yet it was in her home
that her true worth was most conspic
uous. She was a kind loving wife and
moib*r. rnd her devotion to her fam
ily had no limit.
The sunshine of love of the devoted
husband and children and friends
could not warm her to life. Her
breath went out like the exhalation
of a sweetly fragrant minion of the
woodland and in her stead was left
only a holy and beautiful memory ?
a memory that will last and sanctify
as long as parental existence.
The funeral services were held from
the Methodist church yesterday morn
ing at 11 o'clock and were conducted
by Revs. G. F. Smith, of Littleton, a
former pastor, and O. W. Dowd. pastor
of Louisburg Methodist church, and
the interment was made in Oaklawn
Cemetery. Large numbers of friends
and relatives attended each of the ser
vices to pay their last tribute of love
and esteem. A choir sang sweetly
several selections during the services.
The pallbearers were: J. W. King.
S. P. Boddie. Dr. S. P. Burt. M. S.
Clifton, W. R. Mills. F. L. Herman.
The floral offering was especially
profuse and beautiful.
The bereaved family has the deep
I est sympathy of the entire community
