great deal of gMln, Mot ha la re

has been confined to his room
for several days with sinus trou
ble. Carl Davis, son of Mrs. Wal
ter Davis suffered a rather se
vere Injury to his arm a few days
ago when he shivered the bone at
his wrist while Jumping.
The school closed Saturday.
April 27th, with appropriate e.ter-
cises the chief feature being the
very fine address by Rev. Chas.
Holland, of Taylorsville. Mr. Hol
land spoke very fittingly and di
rected his remarks mostly to the
seventh grade graduates. His sub
ject was the “Forks of the Road.’’
In his discourse he pointed out
to the graduates that they were
so to speak at the parting of the
ways and were at liberty to take
either way they chose.He pictured
the two roads as right and wrong.
The right road would not always
look the brightest at the begin
ning but as they went along over
coming difficultiea and solving
problems the way would become
constantly brighter. The wrong
road on the other hand might
look bright at first with all kinds
of glittering temptations to mis
lead them, but these false allure
ments would soon fade away leav
ing them helpless. Mr. Holland
said further that It was better to
fail in a cause that was right
and would ultimately triumph
than to succeed in a cause that
was wrong and would ultimately
fail. Quite a number of pupils re
ceived certificates for graduating
nto the high school next year
and a large number received cer
tificate for meritorious conduct,
perfect attendance, scholarship,
etc. Pro'. C. R. Eller was also
present and made some very ap
propriate remarks.

S. C., who has been visiting her
aunt, Miss Janie Spicer, for sev
eral days, returned borne last

Mr. H. C. Wheeling, promi
nent merchant at the old Elkvllle
stand had the misfortune of hav
ing his store robbed some days
igo. Quite a bit of cash and
nerchandise were taken.
Mr. H. H. Hartley, who has
icon sick some time does not im
prove very much, we 'egiet to

)ecially as to colds, sore throat,

In the face of his dad’s Richard Lane—conviction that the pup is a

pits his own judgment—and eventually supplies amazing supjmrting
testimony. It’s all part of the Paramount drama, “The Biscuit Eat

'Biscuit Eater’ Tells
SouthernSports Story
A moving, down-to-earth story
about life in the Georgia sporting
co'untry—with a grand boy and
an equally grand dog as its cen- a terrible dilemma when he rea-
tral characters—is told in “The
Biscuit Eater,” Paramount’s new
screen drama, which is scheduled
for Us local opening next Monday
at the Liberty Theatre.
Translated directly to the
screen from James Street’s popu-
Elizabeth Ramseiir, of Hickory,
visited their mother, Mrs. Ella
Shepherd and other relatives here
during the week-end. Mr. and
Mrs. Wayne Proffit and infant
son, of Lenoir, also visited rela
tives here Sunday.
Mr. Bob McNeil, of the Glady
Fork section, Is farming quite
extensively this year on Beaver
Creek.
Mr. R. F. Brown, “the village
blacksmith,’’ has been suffering
from rheumatism for some time
and has been unable to work in
his repair shop. Mr. Brown is
about the oldest citizen of the
village and it is hoped he will
soon recover and return to his
anvil.
Ilzes that the success of his dog
will spell disaster tor his own
family. Billy Lee, Paramount’s
talented ten-year-old actor, plays
Street’s lovable boy character,
Lonnie McNeil, supported by Cor
dell Hickman, Helene Millard,
Richard Lane and Lester Mat
thews.
Lonnie gets his first chance to
have a dog of his own when a
despised runt turns up in a prize
litter. He couvinces his father,
the manager of a huge Georgia
dog-raising plantation, to let him
keep the dog and sets out to make
a champ of it!
The puppy gives the boy one
disappointment after another, but
his master sticks iby him. Even
when the situation looks blackest, l
after the dog robs the chicken
coop, is labelled with the dis
graceful tag of “biscuit eater’’
and even teaches the other
hounds his bad ihabits, Lonnie re
mains his friend and protector!
