Friday, May 23. 1924 THE PILOT Page Two LAKEVBEW Messrs Alice and Lillian Cole, of White Hill, spent the latter part of last week with their uncle, Mr. W. J. Cole. Mrs. ,Lou Rickers, of Boston, Mass., is spending quite awhile with Mrs. N. L. Gibbon. Mrs. N. L. Gibbon had as dinner guests last Friday, Mrs, Herbert Poole, Mrs. Lou Ricker, Misses Elsie Coffey and Helene Dougherty. A de licious three course dinner was serv ed by the hostess, which was en joyed greatly by those present. Mr. M. F. O’Connell, Jr., of New York, has been auditing the books in Mr. J. R. McQueen’s office for the past week. If one would but recall it, there was a song out about five years ago that was so popular, as “T’aint a gonna rain no mo’,” is now, entitled, “Oh I^ni tickled to death that you’re Irish.” It seems to me that the song would be quite appropriate just now for certain young ladies in town, being Mr. O’Connell is Irish. Mr. Neil Salmon, of Lillington, and now the owner of a fine new Stude- baker, was in town again. Good luck, also. Mr. and Mrs. R. A Holland, who have been boarding at the Gardner house, have moved to the Newcomb house. They had their first meal Sunday morning, and we are sure it was a success because Mrs. Holland is a very excellent housekeeper. The Lakeview Literary Club held its last meeting on Wednesday of last week. The meeting was devoted entirely to business and election of new officers. The next meeting will be held the first Wednesday in the following September with David Cof fey and Johnsie Eastwood as presi dent and secretary, respectively. The literary club has indeed been a benefit to the people of Lakeview, as it has enabled many to go before an au dience without taking the dreaded stage-fright. When one gets to the place that he can go before an au dience and tell them what he wants to, and in a way that the audience can get the true meaning, he has accomplished something that is worth while. That is just what the Lake view club has done for the majority of its members, and we hope to do more of this in the future than we have in the past. The club, in order to raise money to pay pressing debts, had a pie sale at the Casino last Friday. $11.84 was cleared and considering the conditions on both sides, that was doing extra fine for the club. The club had, also, a free picnic last Saturday evening. A bountiful supper was provided and it was enjoyed by all, Mrs. Ella Dasinherre, of New York, is visiting Mr. and Mrs. Vinton. Mr. and Mrs. George Sharp, Messrs. Carl and Walter Blue, of Greensboro, spent last week-end with their sister, Mrs. A. C, Cox and Mrs. Will Rich ardson.

Aiken delight fully entertained a number of the young people at their home, the Ingle, Saturday evening. The evening was spent in games and other amusements and every one partook of them with a wholesome pleasure.

We hope that the boys of the Rackett Club will see to this as soon as pos sible, as the court is in demand and the clay is entirely too soft for play ing. Mr. and Mrs. A. S.

SEABOARD FREIGHT TRAIN CRASHES INTO WORK TRAIN One colored man was killed and an other injured in a wreck at Lakeview Wednesday evening, when a north bound freight train crashed into some cars of a work train that were stand ing on the curve below the station. The local was moving the work train, and had cut loose to do some shifting, when the accident occurred. The cab of the local was driven completely through two cars, and smashed into the end of a third one. The cars were a mass of splinters.
