Our young people can watch for a puzzle next week. \Ve want everyone to be prepared to take a chance at guessing. Misses Ollie and Alma Dixon and father, Mr. Jacob Dixon, of Goldston, spent a few minutes in the Record of fice Friday. Mr. M. H. Harris spent a short time in Pittsboro and the western part of Chatham visiting relatives and friends last week. Honor the world war veteran, L. A. Nooe. Vote for him for the legisla ture. We can’t afford to vote for one who stayed at home. Those who shed tears and uttered words of “wisdom” when the boys left so rthe army, should now vote for Nooe for the legislature. The other candidate did not give his services as a soldier. Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Morrow, who have been vsiting in this section, have returned to their home in Henderson ville.

Little Etta Goodwin, young daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. Rufus Farrell, was bitten on the foot by a highland moccasin snake one day last week. While the effects of the bite was pain ful, no bad results have followed. She has entirely recovered. His friends will be glad to learn that Mr. Charles Burns, of Oakland town ship, whose leg was broken just above the ankle, when a cross tie he was loading slipped and fell on him some time ago, is able to walk about his home with the aid of crutches. R. B. Reeves of Pitt county, county agent there, reports that C. C. May, cf Grifton, set 200 eggs in January and hatched 170 chicks. He raised 165 to nine weeks of age and sold the entire lot for $118.25. His total expense was $54 leaving a net profit of $64.25 which is a profit of 39 cents per bird. The Chatham Record will not at any time intentionally make a false statement.lWe always endeavor to state facts, and as we have often printed, this paper is always willing to be cor rected. We will gladly give cur columns to any communication to this effect. We are not morally responsible for statements made by our corrspond ents, but we stand squarely behind them at all times. So they intend to harass the editor by threat and withdrawal of patron age? Well, folks, and statement that we may make that will boomerang us, will be taken with as much pleasure as we would a dose of castor oil, but there is one thing that we shall never do. That thing is to submit to a mi nority dictation when we know that we are right. It may become necessary to let the sheriff tack a bill of sale on our front door, and we can be jeop ardized, hut our snirit will never be conquered. The only actual schooling that we ever received, was in a little one room school house down in Cum berland county, of a very few weeks duration, but we learned one thing , and that was “be sure you are right j and then go ahead.” The Children’ Home Society, at Greensboro, sends The Record a re port of the work done by them for the month of May. It is indeed creditable ! the showiner that is made by this in ' stitution. They have saved more chil i dren within the past few years than I any other like infirmary in the south. , The Society now has 18 boys and 21 j girls to be placed in Christian homes iin North Carolina, ranging in ages I from 2 months old to 12 years of age. 1 Applicants are solicited for homv for .this orphan and unfortunate children. Those desiring to adopt them must agree to give the child full advantage of educational and religious facilities; furbish three references, one of which must come from the pastor of their church ard the child must be accept ed as a member of the family and given love and nrotection. Anyone vj terested in taking one of these chil dren may write to John J. Phoenix, Childrens Home Society, Greensboro. < men <J°unty commissiohers. W. E.

Foster and family, near Bells, and was accompanied home Sunday by some of her friends of that commun ity. i Inasmuch as Mr. Hackney has with drawn from the race as county com missioner, everybody should support Mr. E.

The Durham Morning Herald will have headquarters at The Record office next Saturday afternoon and will get the returns from the election in Chat ham and also from the state at large, until a late hour on Saturday night.

Fish Fry at Buckhorn Honoring Little Miss Louise stash. % Corinth, June 2.—Mr. Ray Cross and Miss Clyde Snipes, of Raleigh, spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Cross at Corinth. Mr., and Mrs. Dewey Dickens, of Raleigh, spent Sunday with relatives at Corinth. Mrs. C. W. Cross and Miss Carrie Lee Cross are spending a day or so with Mrs. R. O. Buchanan at Jones boro. Miss Audrey Cross is spending a week with relatives in Durham. Mrs. R. A. Chappelle suffered a badly sprained ankle at her home near Corinth last week and is not able to be about for awhile. Miss Helen Thomas, of Raleigh, is making an extended visit in the home of Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Nash at Buck horn. Helen is the youngest daughter of Mrs. Claire Thomas, who most peo ple will recall was often among us in connection with the community service work a year or so ago. On last Tuesday after the rain had let up, a dozen little girls and young ladies of the neighborhood enjoyed a fish fry at Buckhorn in honor of Louise Nash, on her llth birthday, and incidentally in honor of Miss Hil da Utley, of Brickhaven, on her llth birthday. Those in attendance were: Hilda Utley, Eunice and Frances Thompson, Ruth Kennedy, Louise Harrington, of Brickhaven, Elizabeth and Esther Stephenson, Clyde Cross and Eloise Mims, of Cor inth and Helen Thomas, of Raleigh. A delegation from the Evangelistic Club of Sanford, visited Buckhorn church Sunday afternoon and spread real, genuine religion, joy and enthu siasm in away that has seldom been seen in the oM church. All the talks were from laymen—some who three months ago had never thought of at tempting such a thing, and they were good talks. They brought a response from the people that js seldom wit nessed, execept in the fervor of a revival meetirg. Come again, gentle men, you are doing a good work and will be welcome anytime. The group conducting the service was composed of Messrs Palmer, Moffitt, Farley, Gilliam, Byerly and Dr. Matthews.. Last Saturday night a party was given by Mrs. W. J. Stephenson at their home in honor of their daugh ter, Elizabeth, on her 14th birthday. Ice cream, cake, apples, candy and a good time were enjoyed by all those attending. Those present were: zeb and Louise Harrington, Eunice and Frances Thompson, Ruth Kennedy, Harvey Skipper, Lawrence and Zeph ie Cross, Charles Cross, Leo and Hugh Buchanan, Louise Nash, Helen Thomas, Earl, Gilbert and Esther Stephenson. Sadie Clark, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. A. Clark, underwent an oper ation for tonsils and adenoids at Ba din last week, which proved to be quite serious but this ftiorning the little girl is reported doing nicely. Last week’s Record carried an ar ticle, copied from a Greensboro paper that has caused some comment. It was clipped and sent to the parties most interested. The article in ques tion was a Greensboro paper’s un guarded and harsh editorial treatment of a sermon on crime by a Raleigh pastor who had the facts and knew what he was talking about. We hap pen to know that when Mr. Hudson had completed his fearless exposure of the sordid lives of some of the members of his oven church, he was then and there accorded the approval of the active membership of his own congregation. The exposure was not of the citv of Ashevile o~ the people of Charlotte, not even the members of the Baptist churches of Greensboro, but of Raleigh—the p—- tor’s own town, his own church, de livered from bis own pulpit and to the members of his own congregation— his own flock. Then the Greensboro paper stands off in the distance in total ignorance of the facts and con ditions, throws up his editorial hands in holy horror when Mr. Hudson says he cannot censure a group of fear less, determined citizens for “beating the hound” out of degenerate men that know no moral restraint, that do not hesitate to practice their in famy among the members of the pas tor’s own church—men that stand ready to take every advantage of any young woman church member that they can lure into their clutches; men that the law never did, never can and never will control. If the unforutnate church mem ber victims in question happened to be members of the editorial writer’s own church or acquaintance, we wonder what his attitude would be then. It so happens that this morning’s h Raleigh paper carries the lurid ac count of the arrest of a ministry of the gospel, of a church in Greensboro —the editor’s own home, on charges of immorality. So this week he will not have to go outside of his own city to find some church scandal to write | about. We wonder if he will feel in clined to write in abuse of any or ganized group of Christian citizens who would put a stop to such immor ality in his own town? 1 IT* 9 wm • Misses Gladys and Pattie Stone, of Apex, Rt. 4, have been visiting Miss Ruby Hunt near Chapel Hill. STRICKEN WITH PARALYSIS. Last Sunday afternoon Mrs. Ben nett Nooe, was stricken with paraly j sis at her home here and for awhile lit was thought she would not live j through the day. Even at this time her i condition is precarious and little hope is entertained for her recovery. Mrs. Nooe has be&n in feeble health for several vreeks, especially since suf fering an injury from a fall a short time ago, during her stay in Allen j dale, S. C. Soon after going to Soutn ! Carolina, Mrs. Nooe improved greatlv iin health and she enjoyed the best jof health until she received her in jury. - She had yearned to return to Pitts boro for the past few weeks and had just moved back with Capt. Nooe and 1 her boys, reaching here on Friday. 1 The hundreds of friends of the fam ! ily sorely sympathize with them in the illness of Mrs. Nooe. LOOK AT THE LABEL ON PAPER. • The Peoples’ Ticket.

I feel that the backing of such men as John A. Oates, McGougan, McNeill, of Fayetteville; Carr, Judge Round -1 tree, of Wilmington; Ward, Judge Guion, Thomas and Dawson, New 1 Berne; the Connors, Finch, Lucas, Wilson and scores and scores of other representative men in my section are i sufficient vouchers both of the prog ' fess of my campaign and of my abil ity and character. Accordingly, I ■ frankly ask you for your support for 1 Commissioner of Labor and Printing, and assure yon that it will not onlv . be appreciated, but also that I shall do my best, if elected, as I expect ■ to be, to prove that you have made no 1 mistake.
