Boney, Commission er of Insurance, in connection with the action brought in the Superior Court of Franklin County by C. A. Ragland against Standard Acci dent Insurance Company, of De troit, Michigan. The amount ot damages demanded by the plain tiff against the defendant in this action is $300,000, and the suit is 'one of the largest civil actions instituted in the Superior Courts i in this section of the State in re icent years, The plaintiff, who has been for nearly 30 years engaged in road j construction work in North Caro lina, Virginia and South Carolina, is a resident of Louisburg and has recently been engaged in some large road and highway construc tion projects in this State. He is one of the best known road build ers in the State and has built many roads and highways for the North Carolina State Highway and Public Works Commission. In his convplaint the plaintiff, Mr. 'Ragland, assents that the de fendant, Standard Accident In surance Company, through its duly authorized agents and representa tives, wrongfully and wilfully caused and procured the withhold ing of a $56,276.22 payment due him under a road construction contract in Craven County; and that the defendant through its re presentatives wrongfully procured possession of the check payable to Hagland in this amount and there after under circumstances ap proaching violence forced ihe plaintiff to endorse the check, the proceeds of which were hand led and distributed by the repre sentative of the insurance com pany, as alleged in the complaint. The plaintiff further allges ill his complaint that this plleged action on the part of the defendant had the effect of destroying his credit, wrecking his business and making it impossible either for hiiu to get bonds or credit in connection with cungtrucUoH week.

Broughton ot Raleigh. LOUISBURG BAPTIST CHURCH "The I.itlle Life" was the sub ject of the sermon preached by Dr. A. Paul Baghy, pastor, ou Sun day morning. There are urges within that will never be satisfied if we live the little life, in discuss ing "The Little Life" the follow ing aspects were named: The lit tle business life which of course follows when there is dishonesty. However, the sacrifice of home, church, Joy, pleasure for business is living the little business life. Ask yourself, what after all is the final purpose? The little social life follows slavery to an activity or the search for just pleasure. The spirit In which we enter into social life makes it large or little. Tha little intellectual life appears when there is a search for knowledge for knowledge's sake alone. Not with standing, the high value to be placed oh intellectual accom plishments, knowledge as a gonl ought never to be sought. The lit tle moral life make morality a pol icy. To determine whether you are ? big or little morally answer this question, "Am I moral because I prize a reputation or because I can lift this world up toward God* " If morality Is a policy it is worth less. There can be no policy In tho big moral life. A little spiritual life can deteriorate to littlenes* beyond all things else. There will be no morning ser vice at the church. The pastor will deliver .the baccalaureate sermon at Mills High School. He will speak on "The World and Tim Dreamer." I 8unday evening, 7:30 oYlOi . . . evening worship.
