Wiley and Archibald Murphey gave them their great lives. The Supreme court In Use had held that schools are not a necessary expense and stale superintendents had despaired of anything hotter. But whan these as soriatlona got In action and the state convention 19 years ago memorialised th . leglalatur to do something for th elementary schools, followed by the championship of th Biblical Re corder under J. W,. Bailey's editor ship, th stale superintendent. Charles H. Mebane. Joined with them and by IS9S th state was definitely committed. Th Methodists under Bishop John C. Kilgo Joined th Baptists, and when the state took a atand the way was clear. The campaign led by Charles D. Mi-Iver and J.'W. Bailey as chairman and secretary of an or ganisation to promote local tax dis tricts, failed dismally, but the legis lature of a year later settled the state's participation.

Lata. "Th Passing Show" presented to a packed house at th Grand th best dancing that has been seen her this season and some of the finest effects In scenery and costumes. Sam Howard, on whom th bulk of the fun-making devolved, had to warm up hie crowd. In the beginning he was not received halt as well as his second In th business, Will Phil brick: hut he put nfore and more of his stulT across In each succeeding scene, untl) before th final curtain fell he had the audlncJn his hands, and in his last long appearance ren dered It helpless with laughter. Ths burlesques were excellent, especially "The Bat," "8panlsh Love" and "Mecca." and especial mention should be made of th comedy work of Alexandria Dagmar all th way through. No great things can be said for th music, but then who looks for muslo In a revue, provided the chorus and costumes are reasonably pretty, tha comedians clever, and th dancers really on th Job? "Th Pass ing Show" met all these specifica tions The triumph of th evening, though, belonged to the dancers. Jack Demp sey, Margaret Woods, Frank Masters, Peggy Brown and, Mary Qleason made up a quintet of extraordinary ability. Probably th climax of th show wss reached In the Apache dance of Mr. Dempsey and Mist Woods; but ther waa plenty of first rate work scattered all along, Frank Masters' eccentric , pas teul being specially notable'. It waa a big. massive show, full of g4ety, color, amusement, and with out any particularly raw spots. The ability of th comediaas to keep their humor abov the usual low-water mark Is worth especial praise. Once or twice they skated on thin lea. but not often; and they never broke through. The first number was of course ruined for 90 per cent of the audience by the mannerless 10 per cent who came In late. But that Is an old story la Greensboro. s Business Building At Spray Completely Razed By Blaze Itr swirhtef nM Spray, Dec. 7.
