Raleigh, Feb. 25.?Senator Wiley M.
Person, Governor Blckett[s JjOuisburg
neighbor and next-aofc^* nemesis, was
here today with red vest off and war
paint on.
Senator Person's avowed and i m me- I
dlate object of life is to repeal Blckett. '
That doxri, the Fran kiln-county fellow
statesman of the governor will amend
the "School laws, annihilate tfie Juve
nile*.charts, repeal the* sanitary privy
laws fend ,4ralse hell generally."
"Munitions were gathered while In
Raleigh. The senator called on Col
lector J. W. Bailey, daddy of revalua- j
tion, who had either Just disinherited i
bis brat or was putting the finishing
touches on the instrument. The col
lector was In conference with the rich
realty man and lawyer, E. P. Maynard,
who is also opposed to revaluation.
Senator Person paid a visit to the Su
preme court and imparted to Justice
George H. Brown the ne\Vs that the
senator will not support the Justice for
rendmination. Senator Person cut
quite a swath during his abbreviated
stay in Raleigh. He Is going to wipe
the 1919 general assembly out of the
memory of man.
He will first take out Bickett, his
reighbor. Bickett rubbed off the books
North Carolina* there Isn't much
t ovble to be expected?the lesser
li r* ts will brush off moflf'WSily. Then
trc senator will put Professor N7"*Y.
Gul'ey in- Judge George H. Brown's Ju
dicial office and trim the school laws
down to skeleton- shape, wnen tne
Susan B. Anthony amendment comes
up he will say something. He never
has forgotten o? forgot that when he
put his blue book through the first
Bickett legislature, of which Senator
/Person was a member, and which ses
sion was a- worthy sitting, the names
of the five Suprt-iiie court justices' ste
Tmrmnhpr-i wf?r<? railed for, and what
17 e~rnurt did for Person was tanta
mount to telling liin> "to go to hell."
ThjtVenator 1? against Judge Brown.
/rttcT court could not see that it was
(anybody's business what limpid-eye op
tics it looked into while it writ law for
North Oirrolina.
Senutor Tells His Story.
This isn't the first time that the
*our: and Senator Person have dis
agreed. but it to perhaps the most per
sonal affair that the two have had.
Therefore, in his warfare against Blch
ett an?l the Bickett government, all of
it must go?save the legjslature of.
1917?6i. which Mr. Person was a mem
ber. That's hi- program or "pro
grum," and he gathered exvlosives
here as he went through the ;epart
ir.-ents today. It was interesting to
him to find that Collector Bailey, ad
mitted daddy of revaluation, strategist
who drove the corporation commission
to it. laying revaluation low. The col
lector had Just dedicated an article to
the Bickett revaluation. The finish Is
allowed to be near.
The senator tells his own story bet
ter than anybody can do it for him.
Henceforth, most of it will be his. "You
know the application of Bickett's ser
mon, 'know ye the truth, and it shall
make you free, don't you? You don't?
Well, it's me," albeit the senator, the
most scholarly man of the first Bick
ett legislature, of wmen Mr. person |
was a member and the leavener of the
whole lAy out. will generally use "V' if
It is the direct object of a pr'eposipon.
It was "me," Mr. Person said, and a
Billy Kersands smile o'erspread his ca
pacious countenance, as the poets say.
"And the funny thing about It, is that
I am the lawyer whose house was
worth $15,000 and valued at $3,800; j
and the funnier thing is that Bickett's ,
firm is attorney for the 'widow whose
$10,000 insurance from her husband is
on the books at $10,000.' I have look
ed on the books and it ain't there at
all," and the senator laughed until his
300 pounds shook like a river of gela
derstand; it may have been, and don't
use the widow's name, she is a good
woman. She may have spent the mo
ney educating her.family. But 'know
ye the truth, and it shall make you
free.' "
'T am running on the repeal-the- |
Bickett book platform li> Bickett's
county," the senator went on. Fact la,
he "went on" terribly. "And I anj
coming here with 90 per cent of tfye
vote. I hear that they have-a Bap
tist preacher running against me, but
that won't matter." And the senator
shook as he must have wondered what
Is Immersion, even, among people who
do not like to pay taxes. Whoever runs
against him won't even also ran. Ho
will annihilate all opposition.
"They came to me and asked me
what my house was worth," the sena- i
tor said. "I told them around $10,
000. They asked me if I would take I
$10,000 for It. I told them none of
their d?ed business, It wasn't for sale.
Then they Bald they would list it at
$15,000. I told them to go to * hell. |
(Senator Person is a devout Eplscopa- '
llan) and I would appeal from their ap
praisal. There Is a sentimental side I

of Franklin County.
Edward L. Best, Superintendent
1. There was a meeting of the Ce
dar Rock School Trustees in Louls
burg Friday. March/the 5th. On Sat
urday, March 6th, there was a meet
ing of the White Level Trustees. At
tl^esc meetings plan? were discussed
for making theBe schools, larger- and
therefore more efficient.
2. Now is the time to begin plans
for imploring your school for the next
school term. Trained teachers will
be more difficult tor secure this sum
mer than they Were last. The school
authorities had just as well prepare
for this condition that they are now
facing. I urgently request that you
talk this and explr.fn it to your people
for it is a serious con<clTtfon that you,
your people and I xmist meet. Some
of you are already familiar with the
liuril time we had in the summer and
last fall trying to fill some of the
schools. We succeeded in filling all va
cancies except one. However in do
ing this we have 22 white teachers in
the county with either second or third
grade certificates. This means that
over 600 of oirrtoys otid girls in the
county are being taught by nice, young
"girls but lacking in scholarship and
i prfir<sm0tta"nremnsg: 1 do nol m?an"
' this as a^criticism of our second grade
teachers- fOf we have some excellent
i ones in the county and some of them
? wiH -soon b<* prepared to secure a State
I Certificate frut nevertheless as a gen
eral propAltion second ancf third grade
1 certificates is an evidence of second
and third grade school and community
? .work. Of course as I have said there
I are exceptions to this rule, and we are
' indeed grateful to these teachers for
! taking the work,-if they had not more
schools would have been closed. The
j law will nor. allow these teachers to be
i paid but $45 per month, and no one
' can expect school committeemen to
| continue even employing second grade
j teachers for this amount for six mon
ths in the year. I am stating these
. iiacts that you may understand the con
I dition that now exists and If something
is not done to relieve the situation the
'people,of a?district caifnot hold the
committeemen or the office responsi
ble for vacancies next fall. I believe
that fewer grades, iarger salaries and
a conifortable living place will assure
any district of a well trained an-1 effic
ient faculty of teachers. August will
be too late for the coming school year;
let us begin now to prepare for this
emergency. I will be glad to meet
with the committeemen and people of
any district at any time you may wish
my fcervieesr suggestions?or?-reeom?
mendations.
3. From. the following it seems
that Buncombe County is putting on a
large building plan that will mean lar
ger schools and well trained teach
ers: "Bond elections have carried in
the following special school tax dis
tricts: Emma, $50.000; Weaverville,
$40,000; Turkey Creek, $12,000; Valley
Springs and Sky-Land consolidated
district, $10,000."
4. The following comes from Supt.
W. R. Mills who has recently return
ed from the Superintendent's meeting
in Cleveland: "The Cleveland meet
ing was an inspiration to every patri
otic, loyal American who happened to |
spoke with power and witti^fervor "of
the responsibility that rests on the
schools. It was the consensus of op
inion of that great assembly that we
must look to the schools to develop
in our boys and girls of today the men
and women of tomorrow, a strong, vir
ile Americanism. The educational
leaders from all parts of the country
pleadod earnestly for better schools,
better trained teachers and more ade
quate equipment. They asked for
these not benefit the superintendent,
teachers or Bchool board members,
but as the surest guarantee against the
forces of evil in our country that thre
aten to destroy the best that is in our
civilization).'"
5. The Seventh Grade examination |
will be given in all the schools the 1st :
and 2nd of April.

Rev. )Sohn F. Mitchiner was in Lou
isburg Wednesday and informed the
TIMES man that the large dam to
L'their fish pond was just about comple
ted and the water-had been cut off cau
Ising the pond to be filling. This is
one of the largest projects of its kind
that has been developed in Franklin
County in many years and will offer a
world of pleasure for quite a large
number. The dam is eight hundred
feet long and has been built bo that the
top will be used as a public roadway
crossing a bridge at the spillway.
This will be a portion of an improved
sand clay road leading from a point
near Robt. Alston's on the tfltchlner's
road to a point near Katesvllle on the
Franklinton road. The popd will be
about one and a quarter to one and a
half miles long and will cover some
thing around one hundred and fifty
acres of land. The dam which has
been under construction for the past
four months, cost $10,000 and it is
estimated that the land an4 other im
provements will run the total cost of
the pond to about $25,000.00. Mr. Mit
chiner says it is proposed to sell about
thirty shares of stock In this enter
prise, which will not only entitle the
holder to a fishing privilege, but also to
an actual interest in fee simple. Mr.
Mitchiner informed us that he will
leave next week for Washington City,
where he will get a stock of fish for
the pond. When completed and-"In
readiness for use it will in all proba

of its kind in North Carolina.

This covered the mortal remains of
Hiliary Madison Wilder, eldest son of
|Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Wilder. For only
1 twenty-seven years hud lie "know" the"
i sunshine and ekadpvr?_ of ^ life. But
jlfiose sEort years were sufficient for
'his optimistic disposition and jovial
manners to make a large number of
{friemis-5?Many of whom gathered to
j pay thfl laat n?pmu to the departed
and comfort the bereaved.
The funeral services were held by
Rev. M. Stamps at the old home, where
the deceased bad received the Chris
tian training that serve? as an armour
il> the warfare of life. For fourteen
|years he had numbered in !'? ranks
of Christ's servants. He efceso as
i companion for the journey of life Miss
| Ada Elizabeth Moss and was happily
married July 3rd. 1917. To this union
| was given a little daughter. Sallie
(Virginia, who awaiLed "Papals" com
ling to the city of God.
Although short his was a busy life,
|he found time to serve his country four
years in Co. P 3rd Reg. X C. Inf. He
was always ready with a helping hand
doing kindnesses to both white and
colored. And from those who had re

sympathy which because of their deep
sincerity brought gre^t consolation.
Even "J?ature" seemed to bring a
while human agents performed their
sad duties the clouds covered the sun.
It seemed as if God's face might be
hidden from those whrf-raourned their '
loss. But suddenly the sun shined
forth, while at the same time tiny snow
flakes kissed the lovely white flowers
that covered the tomb, as if to sho\^
the sorrowing ones that God still smil
ed on them through their sorrow.
As they turned away from this new j
made mound they could say with the
poet:
He shall sleep but not forever

Blessed be the God that taketh

. We wish to express our appreciation
to the good people of Bunn for the
kindness and love which was shown us
last Wednesday night when- our pantry
was filled with Rood things to eat, and
our home with happy faces. We have
