Seventy Young
People Enrolled In
Daily Bible School
Seventy youthful Warrentonians
who for the past two weeks
have enthusiastically intered into
discussions and study of the Bible,
will give a regime of their work
on Friday night at 8 o'clock at the
Metehodist church when the commencement
exercises of the Daily
Vacation Bible Class will he held.
The program is expected to last
about an hour, and the public is

progress made by these young boys
and girls in their Bible study.
The Vacation Bible Class was organized
here two weeks ago by Miss
Eunice Williams of Pellam, Ga.,
under the auspices of the Presbyterian
church. Miss Williams has
been assisted in the work by Miss
Julia Bradley of China. The class,
which is non-sectarian, has for its
purpose the creation of interest
among all children in the teachings
of Christ, and among the class roll
! will be found girls and boys of all
denominations. The meetings were
first held at the Presbeterian
church, but due to crowded conditions
there, the organization moved
to the Methodist church.
Says Home Life Is
To Blame For Crime
HALIFAX, Aug. 11.?Improper
home training, lack of education,
popular indifference to law observance,
judicial lenience, and increasing
temptations in the way of
young boys were blamed for the
alarming shift or crime irom tne
adult to the youthful element of society
by Judge N. A. Sinclair in his
charge to the grand jury, opening
the August term of Halifax superior
court here today.
"Boys today grow up among blind
tigers, poison liquor and slot machines,"
said the judge. "With such
temptations in the way, the glamor
of bravado that seems to surround
the young criminal in the eyes of
society, and the lenience of juries
in dealing with youthful offenders,
it is little wonder that the majority
of offenses which years ago were
dared only by mature and hardened
criminals are committed now by
boys as young as 15 years," he continued.
Laws should be enforced whether
they are liked or not, the judge declared,
and only through a wholesome
respect for the law as a
sacred principle of democracy can
we hope to reduce the mounting
toll of crime. Such respect can best
be inculcated in youth by proper
education, and to this end, he asserted,
the grand jury should seek
to have every violation of the compulsory
school law reported and
dealt with. Slot machines and other
forms of gambling came in for their
share of denunciation in uie
the jury being told that it could, by
vigilant investigation, remove this
evil from the county.
Vagrancy, another incentive to
law breaking, was called to the attention
of the jury with recommendations
that all such cases be looked
into thoroughly.
"The maudlin sentimentality
which inclines juries and judges to
deal lightly with adolescent criminals
furnishes an irresistible invitation
to the youthful offender to go
out and repeat the offense, simply
to see if he can get away with it,"
he continued. "All men are equal
before the law, and all violators
thereof should be dealt with alike,
regardless of age. The boy who
commits a crime deserves to take
his medicine just as an older man
would be required to do," Judge
vicrnrnuslv.

gun at Bill Amos, white convict
trusty, and threatened to kill him

CURTIS FIELD, N. Y? Aug. 13.? a
Capt. Frank Hawks became <s:
speed champion of America today
when he piloted his Travelair mon- si
oplane Texaco from Los Angeles to p
Curtiss Field in 13 hours 25 min- a
utes 30 seconds. o:
Hawks started from the munici- sj
pal airport, Lag Angeles, at 5:16:27 u
a m., E. S. T:, and raced across h
the country 2,800 miles, with stops o
for fuel at Albuquerque, N. M., e.
Wichita, Kan., and Indianapolis, w
Ind., to land at Curtiss Field at e:
5:41:30 p. m., E. S. T- e;
Thus Hawks broke by 2 hours 20 f<
minutes 2 seconds the eastward s'
flight record set on April 20 by K
Col. and Mrs. Charles A. Lindbergh, b
who made it over the same route c
in 14:45:32. t(
Only a week ago, on August 6, w
Hawks regained the westward rec- w
ord, which Roscoe Turner had
taken from him, by making the si
flight from New York to Los Ange- e
les in 14:50:43. J
Hawks made approximately 225
miles an hour on his flight today. N
He was ahead of the Lindberghs w
all the way. He landed at Aubuquerque
at 8:43 a. m., E. S. T? and P
took off 17 minutes later at 9 a. m. b
He landed at Wichita at 11:28, and ^
at 11:35, only seven minutes later 0
- ? ? - ' u_ T
this time, he leit ior incuanapum.
Arriving at Indianopolis at 2:23 p. ^
m., he refuelled in 13 minutes and ?
left at 2:36 for Curtiss Field.
Hawks' red and white mono- S(
plane was seen racing across Long a
Island at 10,000 feet. He had told 0
n
those at the field at Indianapolis
that he had been flying at 15,000
feet part of the time. P
It was several minutes before the ^
plane was identified even as a ^
Travelair. It dropped to 5,000 feet e
as it approached the field, then P
came down rapidly, circling twice.
Hawks made a perfect landing, c
and it was known the plane was p
his. Motorcycle policemen raced a
across the field to greet him and a
control the crowd. Hawks taxied.,?
it into line, with mechanics joining |
the policemen in his wake. He >0
taxied it up to a hangar where |
? ? j? ? -r T-i-. ^ III
Mrs. HaWKS ana uiuse ui mo ui-1
ficial party were awaiting. j?
j Waving to the crowd jubilantly,
Hawks raised himself in the cock- ?
pit., took off his helmet, and said:
"What was my time?" 1
| He was informed as soon as the 0
official timer, Don Herald, could w
work it out, and it was known that
he had bettered the Lindbergh
record by nearly two hours and a
half.
Hawks was soon surrounded. He ,
kissed Mrs. Hawks and turned to *1
greet the others. Among them
were Capt. Sir George Hubert Wllkins,
famous explorer; Lady Wilkins;
George Mand, representing
Tn vmap T "\XTultpr of "NTpw
ivi.a.yux uauiuo v. - ^
York, and R. C. Holmes, president y
of the Texas Company. y
"The time I made crossing the c
continent," Hawks said, "amounts a
simply to cruising speed for the n
plane. I'm sure that with favor- n
able winds all the way across, and c
if I let her out, I could beat my y
own record." r

John H. Kerr. Superinten- (
;nt Allen was master of ceremonies,
avocation was pronounced by Mr. :

Mr. Brown discussed the work of
le vocational teacher of Agricullre
briefly after touching upon the
ork done in the local school by the
,'ome Economic teacher. This is the
rst time that the agricultural work
as been carried on in the War- ]

Mr. Brown said.
Students taking this course of induction
are required to carry on
rojects with crops, bees, poultry or
nimals, and keep accurate records
f all expenditures and receipts, the
peaker said. He pointed out that
1 Wayne county where the work
as been carried on for a number
f years, that the vocational studnts
produced $100,000 worth of
'ealth in one year for the $6,000
xpended by county, State and fedral
governments. This is one of,the
matures that has made the work

ie congratulated the school upon
aving at its head this year R. C.

interested in this phase of
rork and who would co-operate

The greatest waste in the whole

on repeat students, Secretary

Uit/ J-?. fTM*. _
lousands of dollars are spent In

ho remain in the same grade more
lan one year, he declared. Records
rove that there is a direct relation
etween the grade certificates of
jachsrs employed and the number
f repeat pupils, he continued,
'eachers holding low grade cerificates
and working with poor
quipment find it necessary to resach
many of their pupils the

SOYBEAN PRODUCTION HAS
GROWN IN LAST 10 YEARS
WASHINGTON, Aug. 13?The
soybean first introduced to the
United States in 1804, has only
within the last 10 years become appreciated,
according to the United
States Department of Agriculture,
and its production is just now becoming
of commercial proportion.
The crop has many things in ite
favor the department says.
It produces a large yield of beans
and an excellent forage. It is easy
to grow and to harvets. The beans
have great possibilities in the production
of oil, meal and human food
and industrial products.
Soybean production will continue
to increase, the department said, as
we find better methods and machinery
for handling the crop and still
more uses for the bean and its
products.

NEGRO TEACHER
SUES J. E. ALLEN j
Emma B. Williams Claims
She Was Paid Less Than
State Law Provided
$200 JUDGMENT ASKED
Claiming that she was paid $60
a month for a number of years
when she was entitled to $70 under
the state scheciule, Emma B. Williams,
former negro teacher of Baltimore
school near Warrenton,
Monday afternoon sued Superin
tendent J. Edward Allen for the
sum of $200. The case was heard In
the court room at Warrenton before
less than half a dozen spectators.
Superintendent Allen was represented
by Frank H. Gibbs of Warrenton,
Emma Williams by Will Yarborough
of Louisburg. The local
school man exhibited the contract
signed by Emma Williams in which
she agreed to teach for the sum of
$60 a month. The plaintiff did not
deny this, but sought to establish
through her attorney mat the State
school law was mandatory when It
said that Class B elementary teachers
should receive a minimum salary
of $70 a month, that the $60
contract was therefore illegal and
that she was entitled to collect the
difference. This was denied by Mr.
Allen who said that she was employed
under the county scale and
that the board of education was
clearly in its right in setting this
scale of pay for this class of
teachers.
Various sections of school law
were quoted by the attorneys and
records were brought upstairs from
the office of the superintendent.
Magistrate Ellington confessed
that he did not feel competent to
settle the question and with the remark
that "I know that the case
, wib be appealed, and I prefer that
a higher court pass upon the matter,"
gave Emma B. Williams a
judgment in the sum of $200. An
, appeal to Superior court was noted v
by Attorney Gibbs.
Babe Ruth Denies
Baseball Is on Wane
BOSTON, Aug. 13.?"This talk

In an interview here George Herman
Ruth, "Sultan of Swat," who

despite a severe hand injury
that for a time handicapped him,
struck base at the pessimists who
declare baseball interest to be on
the downward: path.
In further proof of his statement,
the Babe went on:
"They still rave and howl just as
loudly as ever here in Boston. It
, keeps right on being the best city
of them all. Can you imagine any
other town turning out 22,000 for a
mid-week double-header for a last

Red Sox the other day?
"A lot has been said about poor
attendance on our last Western trip,
but I'm ready to tell the world that
there never was such steady and
continued heat.
"It was right at 100 in every city
we played and the fans who came
