ANNUAL JUNIOR-SENIOR 1
RECEPTION FRIDAY EVENING
The Occasion Was Or.c iff the Most En- ‘
joyabie In the History of Concord
High Sehool.
The jtnnnal Junior-Senior Reception ]
which was held Friday evening at the
High School, was one of the most en- j
joyabie events in the history of Con- ;
cord High School. This occasion is of ]
great interest and pleasure, and it isr ,
without a doubt, the most charming :
social event of tlie school year for the ",
, Tuniors and Seniors. j
Invitations had previously been is
sued by the Juniors to all the mem- ,
hers of tiie Senior Clnss, the parents of ,
both classes, and special friends of the ,
sehool.
The auditorium wqs beautifully dec- '
j Orated by the artistic hands of the ,
Juniorß. The color scheme of green
nnd white anil gold and white was car- ,
tied out in the decorations.
As the guests arrived they were ,
greeted bv the receiving line compos
ed of the suiierintemieut, the princl- ,
jinl and all tlie high school teachers .
anil class officers.
The Isantiful young ladies in their
lovely gowns and the handsome young
men mnde a beautiful picture among ,
so much loveliness.
Charles Parks, president of the Jim- '
lor Class, delivered tlie welcome ad
dress. -This was responded to by Fred ;
Goodman, president of the Senior ;
< 'la ss.
Mr. TVetiti and Mrs. McLeod uufde ;
very Interesting talks when called up
on by tlie Junior president, who pre
sided during the evening.
The music was one of the most
striking features. An orchestra fur
nished excellent music. This orches
tra was composed of Concord's iSvn
talented musicians. The Juniors and
Senior class songs were sung. Tlie '
Seniors also sang a snappy little song
to the Juniors who proved, such royal
hosts.
Several members of the Junior Class
gave a moek trial. This eaused mneb
interest. Tlie defendant, Robert Peek,
was tried for murdering the king's
| English. Some of the witnesses brought
jilowNi the house. Ed. Walker occupied
I tlie judge'sseat. Thejnry -after some
moments of deliberation found the
poor maij Kuilty ami sentenced him to
file years of hard labor to learn the
English language. ,
The 'Seniors were requested to tgo
downstairs and march up to the au
ditorium. Attractive favors were giv
en the Senior 1 girls and boys as they
marched along. The favors were at
tractive caps, and a fortune was inelos
r od.
During the evening punch was serv
ed at two tables. Refreshments con
sisted of a delicious frozen fruit salad
course.
This reception will never lie forgot- ;
ton b.v tlie Juniors, who did so much
to make it so great a success, and it 1
can never lie forgotten b.v the Seniors. 1
in whose honor it was given. Friday
.night's event shall go down in high '
school history as one of tlie most
chaming and elaborate .receptions ;

Plays Piano "While She Paints.
London, May 12.—The extra
ordinary feats of a girl who can
write two, or oven throe, sentences at
a time have been puzzling scientists.
Apart from being bright at school,
with a tendency to write .wth the left
hand, the'giid did not. until recently,
have any abnormal qualities, une [
day. when questioned about absent- 1
mindedness, she declared that she 1
habitually thinks of tw# or three 1
things at a time.
In order to test litis ability, she was
asked to write simultaneously, utf
ferent words witli belli hands; also,
| whether she could describe a circle,
with one foot and at tho same time i
write figures. The latter she did ait j
once; the former after half an hmiV’s,
t raiding.
Being a good pianist and draughts- i
■woman, she trained herself to paint I
and draw with both hands, as well as
to paint with one hand while she
played the piano with the other. Une
of her remarkable achievements con
sists in writing with • three pencils,
holding one in the left hand and two
in right. She wilt even write
simultaneously in three lnngunges and
talk in the meantime. *
Not a Bad Description.
Alice was taken to 0 dance one ere"
ning. The next Jay, while playing
I with her playmates, her mother over
heard her telling them about the
dance. And this is the way she de
scribed it: “The papas put their arms
around the nmtnmus, und they just
walked, and walked and walked.”
MORRISON TO CONDUCT
PRISON INVESTIGATION
Says He Is Restßy to Assume Full Re
sponsibility F< r Probe of Prlscns in
State.
Brock Barkley in Charlotte Observer.
Raleigh, May . 1 1 Governor Mor
rison today withdrew, his request for
an investigation of stat? and county
prison conditions by the state laoaul
of charities and public welfare and
announced he would assume “full re
spons.bllity" for the inquiry him
self.
Ho will personally supervise and
direct a survsy 10 be conducted in
co-operation with the attorney gen
eral. the district solicitors and tlie
grand juries.
“Clrcnmstances are such that I
r«aUy think your investigation and
report would embarrass me rattier
than aid nr? in (lie course I have
firmly fixed my mind upon,” governor
wrote the oonrmisioner and memners
of the charities hoard in withdrawing
is request for an inquiry by that
agency.
'J bat was the principal reason -is
s'gned for his suddenly announced
I'cision, but underlying reasons are
known to center about the continu
ously widening breach in the - .elu
tions between .the welfare anii tlie
prison authorities. The two depart
ments have ncio.d with u; much
tranquillity as a convention of iats
and dogs, and as the welfare depart
ment bus betrayed a tendency to con
vict the prison authorities before the
mauguration of the investigation so
the prisoh officials hive evidenced de
termination to thwart the plans of
the wefare board as announced fol
lowing its Greensboro meeting.
The judicial attitude that might be
expected from a department about to
inquire impartially into jhe affairs of
another has been noticeably absent
on tli<» part of the welfare authorities,
while thti prison officials have not
manifested a willingness to let it step
in. with a free hand and at the same
time carry out its announced plans.
The governors’ decision to take
charge of 1.113 investigation was an
nounced: following a lengthly com
ference iwith the council of state. At
torney General Manning was also con
ferred; with and, afterwards the gov
ernor made official request , for his
assistance in a etter which iie gave
cut for publicbtion.
Judge Manning announced his will
ingness: to co-operate anil assist fn
the .nquey, and the governor advises
he w-11l autborlz special legal as
sistance if he finds it necessary.

FIERY, ITCHY SKIN
QUICKLY SOOTHED
BY THIS SULPHUR
Mentho-Sulphur, a pleasant cream,
will soothe and heal skin that is irri
tated or broken out with eczema; that
is covered with ugly rash or pimples,
or is rough‘or dry. Nothing subdues
fiery skin eruptions so quickly, says a
noted skin specialist.
The moment this sulphur preparation
is applied the itching stops and after
two or three applications, the eczema
is gone and the skin is delightfully, clear
and smooth. Smphur .is so precious as
a skin remedy because it destroys the
parasites that cause the burning, itch
ing or disfigurement. Mentho-Sulphur
always heals eczema right up.
A small jar of Rowles Mentho-Sul
phur may be had at any good drug
store.
