WORTH CAROLINA program, President Roosevelt was planning to leave on his first Vaca tion according to schedule. Civil War Veteran 100 Years of Age Yesterday (Continued From Page One) stream running red with the blood of dead and dying Boldiers of both armies. He would have told of long forced marches through the night to gain some vantage point from which to surprise and combat the well-fed, well-clothed Federal troops! Of other equally long marches, with every step one of pain and heart break, as his regiment was forced to retreat before superior forces. Of the camps at night—supperless and with only the ground for a bed —and the dawn bringing the com mand to arise and fight again. Mr. Jenkins would have told all those stories, had he been in con dition on his hundredth birthday, for he has told them, and more, in the days before illness and old age laid him upon a sick bed. Partly paralyzed and unable to talk except at intervals, for over 15 weeks, the aged veteran lies in a coma upon his bed. His hair is snow white, bleached by a century, and upon his face no sign of pain or suffering is apparent. A veteran of 52 battles in which he never re ceived a scratch, who knows but that perhaps even now, with the sand of life's hour glass almost out, he is living again the thrilling days of his young manhood when he wore the gray and marched with Jackson? To Spend Nearly $1,200,000 in N. C. (Continued From Page One) corps, 2,200 of them being in camps allotted the state. The educational value is expected to be important. While the condi tion of the forests will be improved, the increased appreciation of the value of forests as a basis natural resource is expected to be perma nent in value. The youths, 18 to 25, who attend the camps will each be an instructor of others. Work will be centered on protection from fires, which have caused damage of $1,000,000 annually in the state. Cutting fire lanes, cutting trails to approach fire areas, erecting look out towers and erecting telephone lines will be included, while erosion control camps will seek to check de structive washing of forest and agri cultural lands. President Roosevelt is given cred it for the movement, in part due to his success in reforestation work as Governor of New York. With hun dreds of thousands of acres of abandoned farm lands in this state, Director Harrelson believes this state needs a reforestation program as badly as did New York, and hopes that the Civilian Conservation Corps will speed the adoption of such a program in the state. Former Sheriff Of Yadkin Co. Passes (Continued From Page One) of the county for several terms and four years as coroner. He has been actively identified with the affairs of the Bank of Yadkin since its or ganizaton in 1905, and has been a director for the past twenty years. He was a member of the Baptist church and has been a deacon in that church for a number of years past. Mr. Kelly had also been ac tive in the 'Masonic lodge of this place of which he had been a mem ber over 60 years. Funeral services were held Sun day morning at 10 o'clock at the Baptist church here and was con ducted by the pastor, Rev. W. E. Linney of Wilkesboro, assisted by Rev. M. H. Vestal of Yadkinville. The funeral was in charge of the members of the Masonic Order and they attended from Farmington, Mocksville, Statesville, Jonesville, Boonville, East Bend, Baltimore, Winston-Salem and other places. Rites at the grave were conducted by Mr. Walter Holland of States ville a well-known member of the Masonic fraternity. Burial was in the Yadkinville cemetery.
