Home Department, National Magazine for June. If Capt. George Mebane looses his religion the picture of that little bunch above will have a good deal to do with it. The Capt. is alright as long as they bite, but when they do not, and a horse fly quietly lights on the back of his neck and commence pulling for all their might for a bit of the Captains blood, he says things, softly to himself, but they mean a great deal as to his feelings about the said fly. We are pleased to note that at the commencement exercises just held at the Bingham School, near Mebane, the Alamance boys took a high stand. Mr. Joseph C. Long, son of Rev. D, A. Long, of Graham, was Cadet Instruct or for the year and one of the Cap tains in the military department. He was awarded a diploma for tlie com pletion ot the Scientific course. Mr. Long has bean four years at Bingham, and has made many friends, as well as having completed his course with hon or. Mr. Charles W. Lashley, son of Mr. J. H. Lashley of Mebane, took high rank in both deportment and scholar ship for the year, and was awarded a diploma in the Commercial Depart ment for bookkeeping. This diploma is beautifully engraved, being the work of E. A. Wright, of Philadelphia the engrossing was done by the teach er of penmanship at Bingham, and is in beautiful old English script Mr. Wibur McFarland, of Alamance, received a number of high honors. He was awarded the medal in the depart ment of History, in which he excels- He was also given a beautiful picture called “Progress,” being a pen draw ing of an eagle, executed by Profes sor Z. P. Zaner. Having attained the highest grade in the School in all his studies, he was awarded also the “A. B. Croom, Jr." scholarship. The same high record has been main tained in the past by Alamance boys. The Crawfords, Oldhams, Hodges, Al brights, Stanfords, and others of leading families have done well at the institution, and have brought honer to their homes and their county. “And the cat came back” So bro ther Louis Puryear finds he is called upon to defend something, or some body. but he don’t know who, or what. Seemingly he is anxious to show us what brand of collar he is wearing. It would seem that brother Puryear for got all about what the money was vot ed for injthe bond election, and he seems to have forgotten what was one of the main issues in our municipal election held in May when a Mayor artd board of Alderman was elected for Mebane. Did he hear at that time any threat to run another ticket because members of the board had up to then expressed their intention of favoring the building ot a macadam road across Mebane as was first intended? Did he hear anything aoout the employment or an other civil engineer than the one that was em ployed for reasons very plain to most people. Was the citizens meeting to which Mr Puryear refers to called for the purpose of getting an honest ex pression in regard to the street paving, or was it to be lead to a favorable ex pression of what was wanted by cer tain people? simply stampeded. Mr. Puryear knew what I meant when I said “may be some of these days the people wont be like dumb driven cattle” and he purposely tried to put upon what I said a mean ing I did not intend, now Louis is not that so? May be you could lead a mass meeting, much like you could find people willing to sign a petition to hang you, but it amounts to nothing. Suppose the matter of cutting down railroad hills, and filling in to improve private property had been squarely put before the people of Mebane before the bond election, 'does anyone think it, could have been carried? hardly. I quote the following from Mr. Puryears article, which is a confession to all I contend for. “It is true, as Mr. Miles says that the meeting which decided for the bond issue understood that the greater part of the monej' to be realized would have to be spent for the purpose of grading and macadamizing the road which was to serve in the connecting link between the two good roads al ready up to the edge of the town, but it is also true that they expected some sidewalKs.” In one of Mr, Puryear several arti cles in the Leader, he thanks me for telling “us” so plainly where I stand, and then expresses “pity” for me. Does this mean a threat of a boycott to my business because I had refused to wear any man’s collar? Efland Items. Mrs W. B. Strayhorn and children of Cedar Grove spent part of last week with Mrs. Mary Jordan. Miss Stella Miles of Indiana is visi ting relatives near Efland.

Guess I’d best ring off. Al-pa-ra-ta- Death Of Mary E. Scott. On last Thursday evening. May 25 about half passed 6 o’clock God called from her home the soul of Mrs. Mary Scott, and took it to dwell with him on high. For about 71 years she has toiled on this earth through trouble, sorrow and afliction, but now she is gone to dwell with her husbands and children and friends who had gone on to Gods palace above where she can rejoice In the garden of ever blooming flowers where no more suffering, pain, trouble nor death can desturb her peacful rest. So sad was it to part from this beloved and kind friend, as she was a precious and fond mother, and p rand-mother Around her bed gathered her children and grand child ren to spend the last hours of stay on this earth with her happy preasence. Mas. Maty Scott was 71 years of age twice married first to Lemie Hall last to John Scott both summoned to their final rest many years ago. She was the mother of six children three of whom are dead, they were as follows: Lenie, Martha and Sudie Hall. Robert, Alice and Ed Scott, the deseased are Lenie and Sudie Hall and Robert Scott. There are Mrs. Martha Ward of Efland, Rfd No. 1. Mrs. Alice Christopher of Burlington and Ed. Scott of Mebane who are still living. She was a member of Mebane Baptist church. The funeral services were conducted at Mt. Zion church by Rev. Mr. Edwards pastor of Mebane M. P., church. She was quietly laid to rest in Mt. Zion cemetery to await the great awakening of the blessed morn. May the lord bless her son who was so faithful from first to last. A precious one from us is gone one who will be missed in her tender cares, one whom shall never return from that heavenly home where she tarys. Altho we miss her tender smiles and cheerful glee, but bless her precious name she is better far than we. No more on this earth we shall see her face or hear her piarting grace, but in heavens happy home we will meet her face to face. Written by her grand daughter, R. M. W.

Crawford visited Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Reynolds of Hillsboro Laturday night, Mr. Cicero Jones the popular tax assessor for this Township is interested we think, in some of the property near Orange Grove. Mr. Jones will explain. Miss Orpah Crawford has retumen from an extended visiting trip at Durham >«nd Chapel Hill. Efforts to ruin others business, and drive others out of thi^ town because of independance is too well known. Per haps because Mr. Puryear is living in the secure seclusion of a good fat job in Continental Chair company he does not get out over Alamance County enough to learn what people think, and say about the dumb driven cattle idea. If Mr. Puryear has pity let him show it for these poor people, as for Mike Miles every dollar he owns he has work ed hard for, and he does not expect to get any in any other way. This thing may get a bit interesting as it goes on. Wanting to be fair to all men. I am Respectfully, M. B. Miles. Bingham Lodge. There will be an IMPORT ANT meeting of Bingham Lodp^e No. 272 A.
