The Chatham Record ■*' big crowd hears pou A Strong Speech by Congressman Pcu and A Big Barbecue Dinner j Make Thursday a Notable Day Last Thursday was a noteworthy j day in Pittsboro’s calendar. Despite! the unusual lack of interest in the ap proaching election and the foregone conclusion that there is really no con test in state, district, or county, the court house was crowded by those whe came to hear Congressman E. W. Pou, a candidate to succeed himself for a baker’s dozenth time, assembled in the court house last Thursday and after a speech notable for its straightfor wardness and good sense, enjoyed ar. abundant barbecue provided by the county candidates. It happened that this was the first time the writer ever heard Mr. Pou. Accordingly, he better understands now why for twenty-five years that gentleman has represented this dis trict in Congress, and this year had no opposition in the primary and has none in the clc'' L; '' r ‘ next Tuesday. A few minutes sufficed to indicate | that E. W. Pou is a strong man, while | his unimpeachable integrity and well- I known devotion to the people’s inter ! ests combine with his ability to make ) him worthy of the continued esteem and confidence of the people of his dis trict. In a quiet and stfaight-forward manner, he talked sense to his peo ple. Every sentence was pertinent, either confirmatory of former mature judgments of his hearers or calculated to awaken real thought. Probably the most striking thing in the address was his hasty summary of of the Wilson administration, a state ment of the fact that it handled sev eral times more money than any oth er in the history of the country and under circumstances that were most trying, and yet, despite every effort of the following administration to dis- fraud, not one real case of wil ful mismanagement was discovered, j On the other hand, the Harding ad j ministration was hardly seated when | rascality became rampant. One cab- J inet officer was carrying his handbag with SIOO,OOO of bribe money in it; another cabinet officer has just been on trial for alleged crimes and only a f©W days ago was hapny to have the jury tie in his case; the head of the bureau handling the funds for dis abled soldiers has been convicted of wretched roguery and is serving a term -in the penitentiary. / Cl c ring with a few personal ro.-, marfts, Mr. Pou regretted that his health does not permit him to visit the people as much as he did when he was younger. After the speaking, Chairman W. P. Horton announced that a barbecue dinner would be served, and a long cue was formed, and as fast as trays of the delicious meat, abundantly ac companied with bread and chopped onions, could be handed out, the crowd was served to satiation. Three hun dred pounds of pork went to make the feast provided by the county’s worthy Democratic candidates. BCO trays were served, it'was stated.

X.l~ CHATHAM COONTV THURSDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1926 SILK MILL EXTENSION Loral g J W. Ellington Builder cf Extension f It is gratifying to note that the work on the exter.s on of the local I silk mill is under headway. Two al - ditions are planned, a 45-foot one on the east end and a slightly shorter one on the west end. Mr. E. W. El lington has the contract for the east ~nd addition, and is at work on it. The other extension is expected to be buTt after this one is completed. The two extensions will almost double the capacity of the building. ,This, with the erection recently of several cottages for employees, indi rates an intention on the part of the owner to extend the plant as rapidly as the circumstances justify. The mill is already an important factor in the community’s business, and the prospects are that it will constantly become a greater one. — 0- A. M. LLOYD DEAD Mr. A. Merritt Lloyd, of the Rigsbee section, died Monday morn ing at his home near the Orange County line. He was burled at jLys tra Baptist church Tuesday* afHer noon, Rev. S. L.

Mr. Lloyd was a good citizen. * For many years he was a devoted member of Lystra Baptist church. KEEPER OF BUOYS MUST BE WATCHFUL Veteran of Thirty-Five Years Tells of His Job. Woods Hole, Mass. —Just as the old woman riding the broom had to sweep the cobwebs from the heavens and i light the stars each night, so the l keeper of buoys must sweep clean the j waters, marking the bad spots with spars and buoys, some of which he must light up at night. “Thirty-five years, winter and sum mer, I’ve betn at this job,” says A. D. Wilde, head of the department of j buoys for the coast from the* tip of Cape Cod t<> the boundary oßJlbode Island. “Three hundred buoys are in | my care in Buzzards bay and Vine yard sound. “They have to be watched. The bell buoys must be kept free ,of rust, far enough out of the water for the gentle roll of the tide to sound their iron bell. The whistling buoys must have their windpipes clear, the valves strong, so that the same fall and rise of the waves will draw air into their throats. The light buoys . must be kept p’riJ with the fuel. “And everyone of the 300 must be ! hauled out of the water and ashore cnce a year, to be scraped and cleaned and painted up and put back fresh. That’s the werk of my tender, the Anemone. j “The ‘garden’ of the keeper of the j buoy blooms with these strange llow ers of the sea. There are prim ‘nun’ | buoys, black conicai-sliaped forms like j the headdress of a medieval sister ,of charity. The old-fashioned favor ! ites, the can buoys and their rigid brothers, the spar buoys. All sink into useless stolidity at night, or in a fog.” . The bell buoys are massive, with | their pyramidial frames, ten or twelve ! feet high, supporting a heavy iron bell. ! It takes a 9,000-pound mooring to | hold them to the shoal they warn of, | day and night, fog or clear. The light buoys are of the same type, but newer style. Their lights, in cases of the latest proMucts, are made to burn from a supply of pitch j gas in cans, lasting six to eight months. They burn steadily. Night Life in Geneva Has Its Allurements Geneva, Switzerland. —Night life in ! Geneva affords delegates some relief | to those who wish it. \ Besides the municipal casino or kur | saal there are three fairly spacious 1 dancing and wining resorts where the league delegates can seek relief from texts perused by day in tangoing by I night. Curfew in Geneva rings at 3 a. in. for these nocturnal establishments, and after that hour there is no place to go. Geneva rarely blows itself to all-night parties, except on the occa sion of the “escalade,” the fete day in December which commemorates the repulse of the hostile Savoyards from the city walls. At that time all Geneva gets into fancy dress and stays in that costume for three whole days and i nights. Like France, Switzerland prohibits the sale of genuine absinth. It goes France one better in prohibiting as well the sale of the absinth substi tutes, with which its neighbor coun try is now flooded. Outside of that, however, 'the sky and the visitor’s pocketbook are the limits in the mat ter of liquid consumption.

Included in those which have taken especially, favorable cognizance of Junior Red Cross efforts are the World Federation of Education Asso ciations at Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1925, the Department of Superinten- J donee of, the National Education As -1 sociation, at Washington, 1926, and j the National Education 'Association in Philadelphia, JisiM, IC-J.. Various State educational bodies have con firmed this approval, the report adds. As a phase of their work, the Jun iors have developed contacts through exchange of correspondence, with similar Junior organizations in vir tually every part of the world, and through the development of this me dium many leaders see a better chance for world peace in future. An especially notable development of Junior organization has occurred in Porto Rico, with an enrollment of 137,000, and the Philippines, with 912,000. Mere than 5,000,000 American Jun iors are at work in this organization of the American Red Cross. Their example is held out by the American Red Cross during the Tenth Annual Roll Call for membership, as onj for all Americans to endorse by joining the parent organization during vhw period November 11 to 25 this year. j Was* Over, But Red Cross Nurses Are* Ever On Duty Has the romantic picture of the Red Cross Nurse faded with the war days? It has been more than 12 years since that first contingent of brave women to go to the war zoue sailed from America to make an undying record of service behind every battle front. For an answer to their whereabouts today, it is only necessary to refer to any large disaster of recent years in which the Red Cross rendered relief. Wherever there was injury and suf fering the Red Cress nurse will ba found to have been on active duty. These nurses are enrolled under the American Red Cross as a reserve of the Army, Navy and U. S. Fublia Health Service, at all times ready to serve in war or peace. This reserve of Red Cross nurses aggregates 43,503 women who have met the highest standard in the nursing profession. .The Roll Call for membership in the Red Cross this year is November 11 to 25, when the American people identify/ themselves with the broad services cf the organization by joining iJ-Q ranta. * COURT IN SESSION Court for the trial of criminal cases convened for a week’s term, with Judge Cranmer on the bench and i Solicitor Williams on hand for the state.
