April I) (By the Associated Press). —A "King Tut's” tomb in Xorth Carolina, not of such ancient date as the one in Egypt, but of pre-revolutionary days and made by Indians, is being searched for in the vicinity of Fort Bragg, Uncle Sam's artillery post just north of the city.. Range riders recently have found a number of Indian arrow heads of pe culiar design on the government reser vation. All tire of materials foreign to this part of the country. Two of the arrow heads are of flint, one of an unusual kind of sandstone and the balance of a quartz substance, not unlike granite in appearance. Xone ; of the stones, with the possible excep tion of the standstone point, is like any others found in this section of Xorth Carolina. A belief prevails at the post that there is an Indian mound near tin* spot where the objects were picked up and a search for its location now is underway. If any indication of the mound's lo cation is discovered, Fort Bragg will have si "King Tut's" excavation of its own. In the meanwhile, the arrow heads have been added to the already large collection of curios found on the reservation.

First President of the Body Will Be Honored on the Opening Night. [ The Woman’s Missionary Council of ! the Methodist Episcopal Church. . South, will hold its thirteenth annual L meeting in Mobile, Alabama, April • 4-11, and it is expected that this will be a gathering of unusual significance. , It will be the first meeting of the body since the passing of Miss Belle H. Ben ' ne.tt, LL. D., who was its first and only president up to the present time. Her death, July 20, 1922, marked the passing of the acknowledged leader of Southern Methodist women, and a not able figure in the. religious world of all denominations. i A service in honor of Miss Bennet’s life and labor will be held Wednesday evening, April 4. At this service Bi shop Edwin D. Mouzon, of Tennessee, , will conduct the. opening worship and Mrs. It. W. MacDonell, of Washington, D. C., former home mission secretary and friend and fellow worker with Miss : Bennett, will make an address. A j life-size portrait of Miss Bennett’s sue .; cessor will be ejected during the session j of the Council, and it is expected that | steps will be taken to authorize the es tablishment of a permanent memorial to j Miss Bennett. According to the re , commendations of the special commit tee appointed to work out these plans, this memorial will take the form of a greater training school for missionary workers, and will doubtless me con nected with the Scarritt Bible and Training School in Kansas City, which institution, founded through the ef forts of Miss Bennett, gives special training to young women who serve tin* M. E. Church, South, as home and foreign missionaries. Another important feature of the ap proaching Council meeting is tin* con secration of missionaries and deacon esses. The class of 1923 munbejs .’l!) missionaries and dearonesses, said to be the largest number ever ronsecrated at a Council session. The Woman's Missionary Council is the exponent of the. woman’s mission- : ary societies of the Methodist Epis- j copal Church. South, and represents I a constituency of approximately 270,- ! 7.14, The officers and members of the j Council number probably 240.
