Pa^e Two the PHXyr, a Paper With Character, Va«s, North Caroling Friday, March 2, 1928 I ELISE SCHOOL MAKES APPEAL (Contiimed from Page 1) be responfiible for? Please answer by return mail. Our Trustees have b^n called to meet next Tuesday, March 13, to plan for the future and your reply will gjeatly encourage! them and help them to plan wisely, j As a starter towards the fund, thej student body has pledged to raise; $200. The faculty will add to this! amount. Elise High School has done a great ( work and still ha^ a wonderful op-' portunity for service. Our enrollment ‘ this year is 116, and our daily attend-j ance is about 100, all high school.! Over 30 Elise graduates are attend ing college, among them five candi dates for the ministry’. One young man in the student b^y is a candi date and three others have the call under serious consideration. Our girls take first rank as home build- j ers, school teachers, nurses, etc. Most of our students are here because Elise offers them their only opportunity to get high school training with Bible study and Christian instruction as a definite part of the course of study. Praying that the great Teacher and Lord of us all will put it into the hearts of his people to replace this loss and save this splendid Home' Mission school to the Church and, State, we are. Sincerely yours. Faculty and Student Body of Elise High School. KNOLLWOOD SEES FIERCE ACTIVITY the Cotton Growers Association that rules governing the contest are be ing prepared and will be distributed during the next few days. PROSPECT OF BIG PEACH CROP GOOD (Continued from page 1) a finger in the present reduction of rates. ' The crop this year will be made at. a lower cost and marketed at a lower | cost, and the growers can make some j money even if prices are low as com part with some of the prices in the past, for with a slight reduction on prices in the market the demand for peaches should be larger. LAK^IEW On Thursday afternoon the Wom an’s Auxiliary" met with Mrs. P. L. Gardner. The following officers were elected for the coming year: Mrs. P. L. Gardner, president; Mrs. Claude Johnson, vice president; Mrs Roy Harrington, treasurer; Mrs. C. W. Spears was re-elected as secre tary. Mrs. Gardner and Mrs. Harrington were appointed delegates to attend the Presbyterial at Dunn early in April. After the business meeting Mrs. Gardner served delicious refresh ments consisting of chocolate and cocoanut cake and hot chocolate and home made mints. Miss Sarah Worthy Stewart spent the week end with Mr. and Mrs. J. R. McQueen. Miss Mary Spencer Harrington spent several days in Pinehurst dur ing the last week. Mr. and Mrs. Roy Harrington visited her there on Fri day evening. Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Spears and chil dren spent the week end with Mr. Spears’ parents at BennettsvJle, South Carolina. Miss Frances Blue, who is teaching at Hobbs, spent the week end with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. O. Blue. Mrs. J. R. McQueen si>ent Wednes day in Greensboro. On Wednesday the people in the community were somewwhat alarmed when fire was discovered back of Mrs. Woodruff’s property. With a brisk | breeze it spread rapidly and soon had crossed the road and sped on toward the old school house. The men back fired from the school house and soon had the fire under contrl. The Mc- Crimmons had already burned in front of their property, which helped the fire fighters considerably. Lakeview owes a vote of thanks to all the men of the community, who are always willing to drop their work and run to help their neighbor in time of fire. The representative of the street light department of the Carolina Pow er and Light Company called in town this week and investigated conditions. l>erhaps this means L^eview will eventually have street lights. P. L. Gardner left for Fort Lauder dale, Fla., on Thursday, accompanying W. D. Smith, of Vass. On Wednesday night of this week the Community Club is serving a pic nic supper in the dining room at Lake side Inn at 25 cents a plate. This is the first of a series of sup pers to be given by the club. Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Flemm return ed home Tuesday morning after spending two weeks at Holliday’s Cove, W. Va., where Mr. Flemm was called, due to the deatii of his mother. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Coffey and David Coffey reached LrJceview^ Fri day after spending the pa^ several months at Myrtle Beach and Greeley- ville, S. C. David Coffey leaves this week for Jacksonville, Fla. Word has been received from Mrs N. L. Gibbon that her aunt. Miss Car rie Jones, is in a very serious condi tion at Saco, Maine. Mrs. Gibbon was unexpectedly called to Maine last week to be with her aunt. Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Newcomb ex pect Miss Louise Ricker, of Swamps" cutt, Mass., to arrive Saturday and be their house guest for a month. Miss Ruth B^Neill, from Duke I University, visited friends here Suti. !<fay afternoon. Bill Ellerbe, from Rockingham, was 'in town Sunday. Miss Lou Eastwood spent last week end in Raleigh and Wake Forest, the guest of Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Lancaster in Wake Forest (Continued from page One.) at Kinollwood than Richard Tufts and he is familiar with values there. His purchase connects two lots that he had previously bought. On the heels of this, Herbert W. Jackson, president of the Virginia Trust Company at Richmond, in look-f ing over the progress making around | the and at Knollwood, in which he has had a friendly interest for sev eral years, decided that he would like to have No. 503 on Fairway drive, and Talbot Johnson, having long been a friend of Mr. Jackson, arranged at once to let him have it. Nearly every body in North Carolina knows Her bert Jackson, who through his bank in Richmond, one of the biggest of the South, with a capital of a million dollars and surplus of the same amount, has financed innumerable ventures through the Carolinas, and been a backer of progress for years. Herbert Jackson is a substantial fac-1 tor in helping the Sandhills to reach | the satisfactory place they occupy, and his stamp of approval of Knoll-j wood is taken by those who know him as one of the most desirable that could be had. Another interesting feature about the Knollwood development is that one location, bought a few weeks ago, i caught the eye of some visitors and an offer was made for it with a $500 advance in the original price. But the owner declined the offer, being very well suited with the piece of ground. Buyers of Knollwood lots are not of fering them for resale. m IT COSTS LESS TMWL BY TBMN THE SAFEST THE MOST COMFORTABLE THE MOST RELIABLE Uartt 1 4mr trmm m1« MS9 mMv w* lest UcketM.

Even then did New York find the gum chewing comedian from the West to their liking and Rogers in turn liked the big city so well that he determined to return. The rest of the story is well known. Rogers soon developed into an au thority on politics and news events. In his own inimitable way he went to the very heart of things and pre sented the facts with a laugh. Since which time he has also developed a facile pen which suppliments his speeches. Like all professional humorists Will Rogers takes his business seriously. As he is fond of saying, “All I know is what I read in the papers,” and to this end he reads them everyday, taking from the pages a digest of political and social events which he moulds into side splitting interpre- tetions for the benefit of his Aud iences.
