Mrs. Neal stated hat she, Mrs. A. B. Copenhaver, Miss Mary Lassiter and T. V. Mc Pherson are the only E. R. A. work ers retained there and that they are liquidating and getting the records in She further announced that clients who have outstanding store room or ders may have them filled by carry ing them to the store room. But no new orders are being issued. The lo cal workers are hoping for an exten sion of time but nothing definite has been advanced. This leaves more than 216 fami lies in Randolph county unprovided for until and unless further orders come from headquarters providing for their care. Part of this number have been already assigned to work projects but these projects for all are impossible because of their iso lation in rural sections where they live too far to be transported to the few projects now available. A. con servative estimate of the families out of work and unable to care for them selves is put at 150. Just what dis position of them will be made is not known. The local office awaits orders from Raleigh and Raleigh awaits orders from Washington. A. E. Langston, district adminis trator, who is supervising the dis manteling of the fifth district offices, still keeps his title of supervisor, but there do not seem to be any funds to administer, since no direct relief is being given. He states that every ef fort will be made to have the liqui dating completed as quickly as possi ble and that additional information would be available soon.

Jack Cranford, 29, popular young; business man of Asheboro died at Randolph hospital, at 2:30 Wednes day morning. Mr. Cranford’s death was a direct result of the accidental discharge of his own gun while hunt ing on Thanksgiving day with friends. It will be recalled that the accident occurred when the gun slipped from Mr. Cranford’s hands and discharged, releasing several shots in his abdomen. The most ser ious injury was a four inch lascera tion of the liver. From the first Mr. Cranford's con dition was considered quite serious and little hope was entertained for his recovery despite operations, transfusions and other methods known to medical science. His won derful stamina and healthful consti tution, combined with his cheerful disposition are thought to have pro longed his life past the usual point in such serious cases. He was cheer ful almost until the last which was ever a shred of hope to his close rel atives and wide circle of friends who were anxious for bulletins from his bedside. He is a native of Randolph county, a son of Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Cran ford of this place. Mr. Cranford was educated in the Asheboro city schools and at Duke University. He has been in several lines of business in the town and county but for the past sev eral years has been connected with Frank McCrary as district oil man agers, forming the Randolph oil com pany for Gulf products. He was one of the most popular young business men of the town and county. Five years ago he was married to Miss Ainee Fraser of near Florence, S. C., Who, with a small daughter, survives. The parents Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Cranford, prominent Asheboro people, also survive as do a brother, Oddi Cranford and the -following sisters; Mrs. Ervin Frye, Asheboro; Mrs. George Rose, of Southern Pines; Miss Catherine and Miss Doris Cran ford, both of Asheboro. Funeral service will be conducted at the Presbyterian church, of which the deceased was a member, Thurs day morning at 11:00 o’clock with burial in the local cemetery. Rev. H. P. Powell will assist Dr. Cothran Smith, pastor of the deceased, in the service, Rotary Club Hears Of Work Done Among Lame Children Here Dr. Wheeldon, Orthopedic Sur geon, Speaks Before Ro tary Club, Friday Dr. Thomas F. Wheeldon, who has charge of the crippled children’s clinic being held monthly in the Ran dolph Hospital, Inc., for the crippled children of this county, was chief speaker of the regular meeting of the Asheboro Rotary elub, Friday, in the dining room of the M. E. church. The Rotary Club started this worthy un dertaking but public interest was so strong that it has become a com munity project. Dr. Wheeldon, who was introduced by D. B. McCrary, told of how he first became interested in the work of aiding crippled children on ac count of the great need for such help. According to him, hospitals and institutions for orthopedic treatment managed only to reach a very small percentage of the unfortunate chil dren and that most of them who needed the treatment were unable to get it on account of financial reasons. He commended the Randolph Hos pital for its splendid equipment and its efficient corps of nurses. He stated that he had found the commit tee for this work a very business-like body of men who were economical and generous at the same time. He told of the technical details in the treatment of individual cases and how each patient, regardless of fi nancial circumstances, were given ev ery available advantage. Those able to pay are charged a modest sum; those who are not able to- pay are not charged. But all receive the same consideration. He rounded out his speech by say ing that practically every case brought to the attention of the clinic so far can either be cured perma nently or greatly helped. Several visitors were present at this meeting, prominent among whom were the Rotary Anns who have so materially aided in the work with these unfortunate children of the county. Snake Nest Workmen, cleaning in the back yard of the Frank Auman residence on Worth street, were very surprised when upon lifting some debris dis covered 28 small snakes. They look ed to be pilots and were of various sizes, indicating that they were not all from the same “litter.” They had evidently "holed up” and were look ing for a long, hard winter.

Merchants And Citizens Asked Supply Clothing There are in Randolph county a number of old people that do not have enough clothing to keep them warm this winter.

All serviceable clothing such as men’s trousers, suits, overalls, underwear, socks, and etc. Women’s clothing, children’s clothing, blankets and comforts will be greatly appreciated.

School superintendent Reginald Tur ner has announced that the school holiday will begin Friday, Dec. 20th and continue until Monday, Jan. 6th. Already the chapel programs are hinting of the coming holidays. Three groups are presenting different pro grams between now and Christmas. The Kiwanis club has completed plans to serve soup daily to the un derprivileged children and the ar rangements are running smoothly. This thoughtful generosity on the part of local clubs has been of great value in the past. For several years, the Woman’s club, of Asheboro, sup plemented the light lunches of the under nourished children with soup, | resulting in a substantial gain of j weight for the children. Local Citizens Plan To Aid Santa Claus Fill Empty Stockings While many grown-ups and children, as well, are shopping with long lists of friends, relatives and the like to buy gifts for Christmas, there are many who are not doing this. Many little children in Randolph coun " ty may be neglected by Santa thisi year unless the true Christmas spirit _ prompts the citizens of Asheboro and Randolph county to come to the rescue. The Asheboro Kiwanis club has launched another of their worth-while programs and are making an attempt to secure toys to cheer children who otherwise would receive a disappointment on Christmas morning that no child should have. The Capitol theatre i3 cooperating, as are the Boy Scouts and many private citizens, in this plan. The plans including the theatre will be an hour and a half of fun for toys, either old or new. This entertainment is in the form of a toy matinee at 4:00 p. m. Friday, December 13th, which will prove a lucky day for the un fortunate children of Randolph. In addition to the toy3 presented for admission, the admission fee from those who pay cash will all go toward this toy fund during the matinee hour. Toys, either old or new, will be ac cepted as admission. The picture presented at the toy matinee will be “Babes In Toyland” by Laurel and Hardy. This ap propriate picture will furnish an hour and a half of genuine fun, as well as proving profitable to the worthy cause for which it is shown. Others who do not attend the matinee may leave .heir toys, old or new, at Pugh’s Funeral Home from which point they will be repaired for distribution among the children who might otherwise be overlooked by Saint Nick.’ This announceriient has been made previously and already many toys have Wen received and re paired. But, the number is not yet sufficient, for the need is great. It is hard for those who have plenty to realise how many needy children we have in our midst. Too long have we in Randolph hought there was little or no poverty in . our borders. This is far from true nour, as relief records prove. The time has come for us to lend a hand to those less, fortunate and the spirit manifested by the Kiwanians, Boy Scouts, Capitol the atre management and the individuals cooperating is a fine Christmas attitude. • jAsheboro Business Blocks In Gala Attire To Welcome Holiday Shoppers In Town Christmas Music To Characterize Yule Season In Asheboro Christmas music will characterize the Yule season in Asheboro this year, especially at the various churches of the town.
