the direction of Miss Ada Stirewalt
and piano students, who were taught
by Mrs. Rob Roy Peery. All rise
numbers on the program were wfll
presented and the musical was in ev
ery way a most successful one.
“God Save America,” the opening
numbqr sung by the Glee Club, dem
onstrated the ability of the youthful
concert ists to sing with much volume
and accuracy of pitch producing at
the same time excellent tone quality
and color. Two other delightful num
bers followed. The Glee Club this
year is composed of recruits from the
eight, ninth and tenth grades.
The piano pupils of Mrs. Peery de
serve mention because of the ease,
expression and technique with which
they performed. There are no ad
vanced pupils in the piano clast, but
children reflected excellent training In
the fundamentals of piano technique.
The outstanding feature of the pro
gram was the superb rendition of a
group of violin solos by Hob Boy
Peery. These held fthe audience
spellbound. Mr. Peery is a violin
ist of national reputation and this
section of North Carolina it indeed
(< rtunate in having him located in
Salisbury.

country. However, records declare
that it was here that Andrew Jack
son, at a banquet, first gave utter
ance to his famous words to the ef
fect that the union must be pre

ISI4. One of the rooms Was known* as!
the C3sy room because Henry Clay!
occupied It Under the hotel were
preserved the grim cells where slaves
were kept by trader? who put up at'
the hostelry before the Civil war.
The iron gratings and chains so
used were to be seen up to the time
of wrecking the hotel.
The Oapitol hotel was formerly
the Bt. Charles, and before that the
Exchange. On the same block used to
live ouch famous men 4s Daniel
Webster, Francis Scott Key, Thomas
Benton, John Calhoun, Robert Hay
ne, -Henry Wise and Henry Wilton.

Cland
Autin, Texas, Feb. 27.—Governor
Miriam A. Ferguson, first woman
governor of Texas, today announced
she to a Democratic candidate for
re-election Her platform to further
vindication or the Ferguson name

continue to pull together in the same
old way.”

I Three Point Motor Suspension
a This type of construction was first used by Henry. Ford '
g in 1903, and has been a feature of the. Model T power plant
a for eighteen years. The two rear supporting brackets of \
X the engine are fastened to the frame, while the front j
9 bearing or trunion, is designed to allow sufficient move- 8
d ment to compensate for any twisting of the frame, caused
B by road irregularities, thus protecting both the crankcase
g and crankshaft from distortion, and minimizing the pos
o sibility of repairs due to misalignment of engine bear-
X ings. The three-point principle is used throughout the
g car, including front and rear axles.
