Bdggett 0 Lillitigtoti, director of the Graham Memorial Fund of his dis trict, will be among these in attend Alice at a banquet to be given here on the evening before the great Thanksgiving game. The purpeie ef this meeting, ether than the social nidi of it, is to bring to a elose the t'ftnnmign for 1B0,000 with which to nils h fitting mt'moriftl to the late lulovnd president, Edward Kidder Graham, It was the deceased' plan, had he lived, to erect at some early date a building known aa the Students' Ac tivity Building. He saw that this was needed more than anything else if the accommodation of the Uni versity were to keep step with the growth of hte student body. There ate 125 organizations on the local campus, most of them without a com fortable meeting place, and In this new structure each of these will find n much needed home. The etudenti feel keenly this need ns is shown by their own subscrip tions. In one night last spring the Htudcnt body raised $20,000, gifts ranging from $25 to $500. Last year's class averaged $75 a man, showing how they had felt the need of such a building, and their desire that the men who came after should enjoy what they had been denied. Albeit M. Coates, general secre tary, has sent out notices to the vari ous district managers throughout the State to bring the campaign to a close by Nov. 2$ If possible. So far the campaign has met with splendid success, but to reach the $150,000 goal much work still remains to be done. - At the banquet the final sum raised from each district will be .re ported, and the sum total announced. The committeemen, alumni and friends of the University are hoping that the fund will be oversubscribed. As soon as possible work on the plans will be begun. It is hoped that work will be well under way by the 125th anniversary to be celebrated next commencement. Thus will the great and beloved Graham live on in service to th In stitution for which he never tired of working while he was living. JOHN G.

Nearly all of the churches are organised and the teams in the various churches are getting ready for the canvass to be made Nov. 30 to Dee. 7, Mrs. M. L. Wemack, Swann's 8ta tlen, director for the women in her church, writes i "A widow lady In ur church who works for her living Is going to give $100. I am going to give $125," If such large giving aa this does not inspire many of our members to greater things, we greatly mistake our people, . y Three men and one woman all liv ing outside of Dunn, will give $1,000 each, and these are not uor ablest church members and we hope are not our largest givers. Have we not some persons able to give $5,000 T The Little River Association has more than doubled Its contributions for the convention work over last year's record, which up to that time was Its best year.

October 31. Mr. Hodges had lived in Harnett County all of his life. He was one of its most success ful farmers, and played a big part in that progress which brought the com munity to its present standard. He was a member of the Primi tive Baptist Church and was clerk of the association which embraces this district. He lived strictly ac cording to his faith and gathered to himself the genuine regard of all with whom he dealt during his long life of activity. Mr. Hodges never held public office. I .1 J!J 1 2 l 1 ' Only once did he aspire to such honor, Then he was defeated by his friend George K. Grantham. Since his young manhood, however, he had taken an active part in county politics and was vigorous advocate of good govern ment. He was married to Miss Johnnie E. Layton when he was a young man. To them ten sons and four daughters were born. All of these except Marshall, who died at the age of sixteen fifteen years ago, are still living. All of the! children except Edgar, who is with the American forces in Siberia, and a daughter, were with the old gentleman when he answered the last summons.

In this god year, 11)19, how much have we for which to be grateful I Our soldiers who on last Thanksgiving Day wera far awny In foreign lands have safly crossed the sons, and are at homo again In peace. The Lord of tho Harvest has been good to us. Our fields huve yielded bountifully. Our In. dustries have thrived wonderfufly. Proaperty smiles on farm and factory, bank and store. In every line of business endeavor we are prosper ing beyond the fondest dreams of our fathers. There has been also a mighty triumph of spiritual forces In our midst, for which we should be profoundly grateful. The fruit of this victory are seen In tho great forward move ments of all the churches; In the finer education nl advantages enjoyed by' all the children of the State; In the growing demand for complete economic and social justice In taxation and all other matters; and In tho larger opportunities offered on every hand to tho average man and the average woman. Surely in this day God has given to men every where a bigger, broader conception of Chris tian service than they ever had before. North Carolina is singularly blessed In that In this time of turmoil she Is almost entirely free from industrial and racial bitterness and strife. We should be deeply thankful for the spirit of friendship and good will that prevails among us. Let us pray for absolute justice for all, by which alone this spirit may be strengthened and maintained. NOW, THHKEFOKK, I, Thomas, Walter Dickett, Governor of North Carolina, In obedi ence to the custom established by our fathers and in accordance with the proclamation of the President of the United States, do hereby proc laim Thursday, November 27th, a dayof public Thanksgiving. Let this be a day ofrest and rejoicing, observ ed by everybody. Let us not forget the orphan;, the poor and the unfortunate. I earnestly trust that all the people will assemble In their places of worship and make this a real Thanksgiving Day. - i SHORTAGE OF COAL MAY FORCE COTTON MILLS TO SUSPEND First Five on Priority List AH Allowed Fuel By Government SUPPLY LIMITED TO PRESENT STOCKS Curtailment Mad Necessary Because I a I Production is Below ReauirementsV or fret erred Classes. Railways, . If Municipalities and Retailers in Favored Class. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 17. Orders lim iting deliveries of coal in the South ern region of the Railroad Adminis tration to thp first of five classes on the fuel priority list, which does not - i i r . i include manufacturers, were issued late today at headquarters here. The action on itsface means the closing down of cotton mills and the manufac turing plants of almost all descrip tions as soon as their present supplies are used up. These supplies generally are understood to be scanty. Curtailment of coal consumption . a A M. was made necessary me statement said, because "coal production is still below the absolute requirements or the first five classes of consumers." These classes who are still to get coal are government departments, state, municipal and county institutions. public utilities, including newspapers, and retailers to supply domestic con sumers. May B Nation-Wid. No announcement was made here as to whether the sharp curtailment of coal consumption would be nation-wide, but it has been understood that about the same conditions pre vail in other sections of the country. Reports generally have shown many miners not returning to work, despite concellatlon of the strike call on order of the Federal court at Indianapolis. The statement announcing tha coal consumption curtailment follows i "llttHpf Hrriprs Issued todav at the direction of the United States Fuel Administration deliveries of coal by the railroads for the present will be limited to the nrt nve humps or me Putd Administrator' reference 1M.

"In dealing with application for coal from retailers, this committee is under instructions to see to it that deliveries are made solely to care for the pressing needs of domestic con sumers; in other words no dealer can be permitted to obtain supplies pre sumably for domestic consumption but actually to be turned over to a manufacturer or other user of steam coal not included in the first five classes. "With the hope that in the near future the situation will improve suf ficiently to warrant resumption of deliveries of classes F. and G., the local railroad representatives will con tinue to receive and forward applica tions from consumers in these classes. Having these applications for imme diate requirement on file, the commit tee will be in a position to act promptly and quick deliveries will be assured when the restrictions now imposed are lifted."
