Saturday June 16, 193*; SOCIAL AND PERSONAL Former President of College Honored. The following account of a banquet given by Mrs. C. A. Cannon appeared in the last edition, of the X. C. Christian 1 Advocate: i A reunion of the class of 1(111 was ' held at Greensboro College this week in 1 honor of Mrs. Lucy H. Robertson, known • and beloved throughout Southern Meth- i odism, and who wus former president of 1 the college. Mrs. D. A. Garrison, of Gastonia, at tended the reunion, accompanying her be ing her sister. Mrs. C. A. Cannon, of Con- 1 -cord. Monday an elaborate six-course Inn- , cheon was given in the banquet hall of ’ the O. Henry Hotel by Mrs. C. A. Can non. honoring Mrs. Robertson. The dec orations expressed the class colors both in silken draperies and in flowers. Close friends of the honoree and hostess com posed the party.—Charlotte Observer. We wish to congratulate Mrs. Cannon upon this expression of her love and ap preciation of our beloved and honored conference president, Mrs. Robertson. Perhaps no woman in North Carolina has in the course of the years come in intimate touch with so many women as has Mrs. Robertson. For many years president of what was then Greensboro Female College, she touched the lives of hundreds of young women, many of whom are today lenders in their com munities, and all of whom arc stronger and finer for the influence anil guidance . of the president of their alma mater. Also as president of our conference missionary society since its organization thirty-three years ago. Mrs. Robertson has led the Methodist hosts of women in paths of pleasantness and peace—yea more, she has led us ever on the upward way; "Forward, forever in the Master's name” has been her loud call to -us, and inspired by such a leader to follow,, not afar off. but closely, has been and is a joy to the hundreds who love and revere her.

Bullet Hole in it. Columbia. S. C„ June 15.—‘My motto is this: I have not any relatives at all.l Whoever tries to do me wrong. I will try to do them the same way. If any! one would try to knock a tooth out of my mouth, I would try to knock out al! of his. Nowadays you must be bad to get along with this world.” Such was the translation made of writing on the back of a bank book found on'- the body of a man believed to be Jim Hatsi Alorakis. of Aladison. Oil. .The body was discovered in a badly | decomposed state by tile side of a little used road leading out of Columbia, the skull was fractured and a bullet hole through the temple was believed by Coroner Scott to have been the cause of death. Local officials say they are cer tain the man was murdered. Environment in Which Murder as a Art Flourishes. Greensboro News. A murder record higher than that of any other nation in the civilized world isn’t going to be changed mere ly by enacting laws making it more dif ficult lo procure revolvers and ammuni tion. Human life, as Hamlet reflected, is at the mercy of ”a bare bodkin"; and the only* thing that will prevent its wanton destruction is eradication of the murders fashion. Murder must be made distinctly had form before there will be much chance of stopping it. That is neither an attempt at satire, nor a strained, humorless joke. It is absolutely seriousness. Our trouble is that murder is the fashionable, conven tional thing to do, under certain cir eumstnnces; and of course it is useless to undertake to punish the man who does it while public sentiment j,s with him. It is vestigial survival of the code duello stripped of even those flimsy ; safe-guards with -.which custom siir- I rounded the eourt of honor. For instance, consider the case or the North Carolinian who catches another man in a compromising ‘position with his wife—what does public opinion ex pect of him? Is he permitted to put his case in the hands of the law. and to de pend upon the law to punish the inter loper? Not if he lias much regard for his standing in the community. The fashion, good form, commands him to shoot, and shoot for beef. And the dictates of fashion life stronger than any law. No jnry will reach any other verdict than one of acquittal in such a case, not even if it is shown beyond dis-. ante that the woman was the responsi b'e party: and the killer receives popu lar acclaim, instead of a prison sentence. That, is the extreme case, the one in which it is admittedly impossible to convict the slayer. But there are others differing from it in degree, but not in kind, in that the murderously inclined individual is ndt held in any low esteem on account of his -thirst for blood. A brilliant illustration is the case of Bax ■ ter Shomwell, who at one tune ‘or another has fired oil an incredibly large number of his fellow citizens. Fortunately, Baxter is a notoriously bad marksman, so he lias managed to AUCTION SALE At Concord, N. C., June 26th, 1923 | | On June 26th, 1923, at 10:00 A. M„ at Concord, N. C.

He is still a high roller. With an unserved jail sentence hang- I iug over him. he travels about where I he pleases, and none attempts to stop | ! him. The people of Davidson will not prod their county officials into action | looking to his apprehension ; the people of Buncombe county seem perfectly willing to permit Shemwell to .M among them undisturbed; prominent citizens* of Guilford county note his ar rival in Greensboro on a business trip, and never seem to think of notifying the police. If he were a bootlegger now, in numerable hands would be raised against him; he is only a maukiller. and murder is much better form than bootlegging. A man cannot sell liquor and maintain his standing among gentlemen : but murder—oh. well, that's the fashion, that is regarded as an' of fence not necessarily involving moral turpitude. Naturally in that environment mur der as a fine are flourishes. Why shouldn't it? Give Job to Best Man. Philadelphia Record. The practice of promoting- members of I Congressional committees by seniority has resulted in giving a disproportion ate number of chairntanships to the South when Democrats are in control, because the South is apt to keep its members in Congress longer than the North and West do. There are persons who think that the Democratic party is injured by this ascendancy of the South in a Democratic Congress. We are not at all sure that this is the case. The civil war has been over 58 years, and the .Democratic party is more national, more widely distributed, "than the Re publican party. But there are obvious objections to the rule of seniority, ex pressed by Lord Fisher of the British navy in his prediction that "one of these days England will go to smash be cause it was Buzzard's turn.” The wel fare of the country, and even the wel fare of a party, ought not to be risked because it is somebody's turn to take a position of power. The chairmanships had better be given to the ablest men, whether the oldest men or not. Hundreds Attend Summer School at Trinity College.
