The following Items of news In cur
sister town of Franklinto'i was taken
from the Frankllnton News.
The Service Co., with H. A. Mo
Ghee In harcge, has built a garage at
the home of Mr. McGhee on the Louis
burg road, and ate about' ready Cor
business. This was necessary, on ac
count of the building which they form
erly occupied being used for pther:
purposes.
E. H. Evans entertained a number
of his friends at his home near town
on Tuesday in honor of daughter and
son-in-law. Mr. and Mrs. Wayland
Hockaday, of Benson. A splendid
borbecue and brunswick stew dinner
wi.h all the accessories, was sorved.
Mr. Evans is a fine host and a good
time is always enjoyed at these bar
becues, which are given annually.
Miss Eunice Pergurson was hos
tess at a delighful party at the home
of her brother, Mr. J. E. Pergurson on
last Thursday night. Games and danc
ing were enjoyed In the large hall,
with music Irom the Vlctrola. Ice
cream and cake were served.
Those present were the Misses Mary
and Annie Bell Thompson, Nealie Win
free, Leonie Strickland, Flossie Win
ston, Hattle Jackson, Nannie and Eu
nice Pergurson; Messrs. Obie Garner
and Charles Wilson of Forestvllle,
Messrs. Walter Kittle, Sherbert Rowe,
Otis Woodlief. Herman Tilleston, Ed
Perdue, Jlmmie Pergurson and Meesrs.
Rising and Thompson, and Mr. Carl
ton Pearce of Youngsvllle.
The Rev. C. L. Dowell resigned as
pastor of Franklin ton Baptist church
I at the morning service last Sunday.
His resignation ie *n **ke effect on
January 1 which will complete seven
years as pastor of the church.
This action on his part was not ?
surprise to the membership of the
church since he intimated some time
ago his purpose to do so. But his
flock gives him up with grief. Not a
man woman or child In hl3 congrega
tion wants him to go. Since he came
into our midst his life has been a true
interpretation of Oliver Goldsmith's
"The Village Preacher" ?
"Thus to relieve the wretcheg Srai Jila
pride.
And e'en his fallings leaned to Vir
tue's side;
But on his duty prompt at every call.
But watch'd and wept, he pray'd and
felt for all. '
.And. as a bird each fond endearment
1 tries
To tempt his new-fledged offspring
I to the skies; ?
He tried each art, reproved each dull
delay.
Allured to brighter worlds, and led
. the way.
Mr. Do well will move to Forestvllle,
N. C.. where he has recently bought
a lot and built a house. ForestTllle
will be fortunate In securing him and
his fine family as cltlsens. ? Contribut

High praise for the personnel of
the Franklinton Boy Scout troop came
this week in a letter from F. A. Stall,
athletic director at Camp Junaluska,
where the scouts spent several days
on their tour of Western Carolina. Mr.
Stall writes:
"Lake Junaluska, N. C? Aug. 15, '24.
"The Franklinton Boy,. Scouts under
the leadership of Scoutmaster L. H.
Allison have Bpent a week with me at
Lake Junaluska. I have been doing
work with boys for the past 25 years;
for the past three years I have been
secretary of the Bays' Club of the
Ashevllle, N. C., Y. M. C. A., and since
1911 I have been Scoutmaster and
Boys' Camp Director and with fill this
experience with boys, I have only met
one troop that compares with the
Franklinton Scout troop. The most
pleasant, week of the sumer was spent
with your boys. I commend the boys
for their obedience, and Scoutmaster
Allison for his discipline. Your com
munity is fortunate In having an or
ganization like this one, and it de
serves the oc-operation of your com
munity.
"I admire all the boys In the troop
and learned to love them while they
were in camp with me and sincerely
hope that they, with Mr. Allison and
Mr. Morris, will return next summer.
"F. A. STALL."
Robbers were bold in the Frank
linton community" Thursday. Pearc
es Cafe, J. O. Mitchells Store, Lloyd's
Store and Wilder's Store have all been
visited under cover of dark and stocks
depleted. Authorities have made no ar
rests in connetcion with any of the de
predations but are working on several
clues which give promise, It was said
here yesterday.
Cigars, cigarettes and a few staple
articles were taken from the cafe and
and the stores of Lloyd and Mitchell.
An Inventory would be necessary to de
termlne the exact amount stolen, It
was said.
Wilder's Store on route 2 was en
tered through a side door after fail
ure to break the front entrance. Au
tomobile tires and sugar were re
moved from this store. Wilder was on
his vacation at Morehead City at the
time of the robbery. A dog was found
In the store next morning but evidence
could not be centered upon any one
from this Incident, It was said in that
community, as the canine had been
missing for several days and probably
was locked In the store before the
robbery.
Last week robbers walked away with
lard and sugar from a store belonging
to Howard Pearce.
