Whether there re any such folks in the world, have no means of knowing ex : from this unsigned communi i- .tion, or whether if they really ave married. Some of the most embarrassing ’.nations for newspapers come out of publishing false reports of mar riages, and we hope that people vi 11 learn to sign their names to their new r s articles.

It is hard to keep up with the marriages in the county when so many of the comparatively few who are marrying these hard times ride over into other counties or states to have the knot tied. An instance of that was the marriage in Vir ginia, two weeks ago, of Mr. A. Hilliard and Miss Christine Phillips of Goldston.

The marker is to be of metal, 17 by 20 inches, and is de signed for display when dry bureau representatives stop a car. THE CHATHAM* RECORD, PITTSBORO. N. C. The person who closes a note accompanying an unsigned contribu tion with the words “May I remain a reader of the Chatham Record” may continue to read what is found in it, but we assure him or her that they will not read any more articles sent in without names. And that one was good news and well written. But to publish articles or news without names opens the door for such deceptions as we re cently had played upon us. N. C. Schools Hold Bth Place In The South —— Raleigh, Aug. 27.—North Carolina stands eighth among the 16 South ern states in public education, it is learned from the office of the State Superintendent of Public In struction. This ranking of the states is based on five educational items generally considered indicative of a good school system. These items are: (1) per cent of enrollment in aver erage daily attendance, (2) aver age length of school term, (3) av erage annual salaries of teachers, supervisors and principals, (4) per cent of total enrollment in the high school grades, and (5) average value of school property per pupil enrolled. According to the statement issued by the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, the state of Miss ouri ranked first among the sixten southern states on the basis of these five items. Maryland is second and then follow in order, Texas, West Virginia, Florida, Louisiana, Virgin ia, and North Carolina. The states ranking below North Carolina on the basis of a composite score on these items are: Oklahoma, Ken tucky, South Carolina. Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas and Mississippi. The North Carolina rank was obtained by the following scores on the respective items: per cent of enrollment in attendance, 75.5; av erage length of school term, 149.4 days; average annual salaries of teachers, supervisors and principals, $837; per cent of total enrollment in high school, 12.1; and average value of school property per pupil enrolled, sl9. This ' state is below the national average on each of these items, and spends one-half as much per pupil as does the Nation as a whole for the current oper ation of schools. ■ ■— -qp™ ■ ■ The average woman is less interested in a supreme court decision than she is in a su preme coat creation.
