Cotton Pools to Close Mar. 20th
RaMgh, March 12. ? All pools will
be closed next Tuesday for delivery of
cotton by members of the North Caro
lina Cotton Growers Cooperative As
sociation. according to announcement
fiom headquarters here. This does
not mean that all cotton will be sold
by that time as the Association offi
cers state that orderly marketing will
be adhered to aa a definite policy.
The North Carolina cotton coopera
tives have led the entire South in se
curing deliveries of short staple cot
ton by members, and the record for
the Beason shows receipts of more
than 135,000 bales. The Mississippi
long staple growers' asxoclatlen re
ceived a larger number of bales from
their members, but no other Southern
State has equalled it, South Carolina,
being the next nearest.
Officers of the cotton association
were in Atlanta this week conferring
with General Sales Manager C. B.
Howard and with officers of other
Southern cotton cooperatives relative
to methods of operation of the vari
ous associations.
Another membership drive will be
put on in early spring by the North
Carolina association when It 1b plan
ned to double the -membership, which
would place this State far ahead of
any other State in that respect also.
"Every member get a member," will
be the slogan.
With the closing of the pools next
week, preparations will begin for
making another distribution to mem
bers.
Skating Rink.
Friday evening, March 9, was "Stunt
Night" at the skating rink, and every
<;ne was asked to represent something
in a circus. Evidently It was too
preat an undertaking to represent
cne of able animals, as every one who
came In costume tried to represent
one of the clowns, or the ring master,
or something from the Wild West
show. Several of the girls dressed to
represent the bare-back riders.
Grady Tucker, who was dressed in
] Indian costume was awarded the
prize. This was a nice box of candy.
The weather has grown warm
enough for the children to skate on
the street now, and the novelty of the
Eitatlng rink has about worn off any
way: so the rink will be discontinued
fur the present.

the slightest degree of nervousness. ?

pounds of the dark weed. The second

approximately 40 per cent of the ap

nary years with a further payment

The continued success of the bright
markets of the Tobacco Growers Co
operative Association Is described as
follows in a letter just received at Ra

floors at Danville, Va.
Danville Va. Mar. 8, 1923.
Mr. M. O. Wilson, Secretary,

Raleigh. N. C.
Dear Sir:
Inclosed beg to hand you contract
signed by Mr. T. L. Massey, Altama
haw, N. c. also check of three dollars
fo cover initiation fee.
Today Mr. Massey offered for sale
on thQ auction floors of Danville 2,400
pounds of tobacco. Not Being pleased
with the sale, he took this tobacco in,
came to the Association's warehouse
and asked for a contract which he
signed, requested that 1 send a truck
to the auction warehouse for his to
bacco. which I did. Our grader put
j these tobaccos in the Association's
.standard grades. Mr. Massey stated
I that his first and second payments) on
these tobaccos would give him Si. 00
per hundred more than he would have
received in full had he let his tobacco
go at the prices offered on the auction
floor. He was very much pleased with
our method of handling his tobacco
and has gone home a strong coopera
' tive, stating that he was going to work
In his community in an endeavor to
! promote the Intereests of the Asso
ciation in every way possible.
With best wishes. I am
Yours very truly,
H. N. Williams, Mgr. Whs.,
Danville, Va.
Co-op members in South Carolina
I who have already received 105 per
I cent of the appraised values of their
[ tobacco and are assured of a fourth
' payment, are checking up tlielr gains
[and are well satisfied with their first
i yea- of cooperative marketing.
H. B. McCall, of Effingham, S. C.,
probally the largest planter in Floren
! ce county, says that none of his share
I croppers who divided and sold at auc
I tion have received as much as his
half in the association. Mr. McCall
stated last week that one of his share
croppers carried hia half of four acres
to the auction sale and got $230, while
the half put in the association has
already paid Mr. McCall $250 and he
is assured of still more in the fourth
and final payment. Mr. L. E. Ward,
another Florence county planter, sold
four acres of a better quality crop in
1921 than that which he delivered this
year and received $852 for it. His 1922
I crop of only three and one half acres*
has already paid him $905,06 in the as
sociation .
A remarkable record in signing
up members has Just been reported to
Raleigh headquarters by John C.
Roach, of Whittles Depot, Va., who
asked for more contract blanks to bring
his- total record to 1100 signers. Mr.
Roach writes: "Having signed up per
sonally and through meetings at dif
ferent places 1074 tobacco growers, I
would like to complete the record of
an even 1100 and then T can leave or
discontinue active service with the co
ops feeling that I have somewhat ful
filled the duty to our down-trodden
tobacco growers."

STl' I>ENT RECITAL
The fourth in the series of student
I recitals were given in the College Audi
torium, Tuesday, vMarch 13tli, before
an unusually large and appreciative
audience by pupils of Mrs. Mohn, Miss
Padwick. and Misa Hall.
The program presented a pleasing
variety of instrumental and voclil se
lections, - interspersed with readings
given by the students in expression.
To the younger members In the
audience, especially, the readings fur
nished the greatest Interest. This was
particular true of two of these select
ions taken, one from Miss Minerva
and William Greene Hill, aiid-flie other
from Billie and the Major. The3e were
recited by Misses Margaret Holden
-end Mary Lee Kearney, the little girls
did well and were not a bit_ flustered
i by the frequent bursts of" laughter
j which greeted their narratives of some
jol the mirth-provoking remarks of the
irrepressible Billie.
Miss Margaret Ledbe'tter of Prince
j ' ' gave a very amusing monologue
J or. "Choosing a hat." She tried on
l imaginary hats before an imaginary
! mirror in highly realistic style
Two other readings on the program
of a more serious type and more diffi
cult to handle were well rendered by
the young ladies to whom they were
| assigned. The first of these, "The
Legend Beautiful" from Longfellow's
Tales of a Wayside Inn." was given
ty Miss Lucy Perry Burt of Louisburg;
and the other, deMaupassant's "Neck
lace" by Miss Hattie May Parker of
: Lasker.
j There was four vocal solos arranged
j at suitable Intervals on the program.
| .vliss Edythe Guffy of Concord sang,
| in rich contralto admirably adapted
j to a lullaby, "Baby's Goodnight' by
Rockwell. A sweet little piece from
Gries, "I Love you. Dear." was pleas
ingly sung by Miss Bessie Lancaster
J of Louisburg.
I Miss Genevieve Peltz, of Hagerstown,
| Md., by her able rendition of "At
Twilight" by Friml and "Life" showed
that she possesses talent for that line
of worS. .
The applause with which Miss Bet
itie Holden. of Youngsville, was re
ceived attested both to ner individual
popularity with Louisburg audiences,
an<J to the pleasure which they take
in rollicking, joyous music such as
Sanderson's "Break of Day" and Polk's
"Spring-time" which were her selec
tions.
Only two solos held place on the
list of instrumental pieces. "Romance
for Remembrance" from Adams was
rendered by Miss Ora Holden of Louis
burg. and Slnding's "March Grotes
que" by Miss Julia Daniels of Wilson.
Both these young ladies played from
memory and in such manner as rich
ly to deserve the appreciation with
which they were rewarded.
Two of the youngest performers
were Misses Eliza Newell and Virginia
Heck of Louisburg. Their duet, Rum
mers "Military March" gave much
pleasure. They were complimented
on the excellent time which they kept.
Equally creditable was the rendition
of Oanz's "Qui Vivl" by Misses Mae
Campbell of Slier City, and Ora Hold
en.
| A Polonaise from Parlow by Misses
. Susie Crowell. Thomn svl lie, Julia Dan
I lels of Wilson, atid Etta Beale Grant
, of Hookerton. was the opening num
i her. It set a high standard ot excel
lence which was maintained through
out the entire program, reaching a
climax in a quartet from Brockershlre.
"The Elation of Triumph" played by
the same young ladles with the addi
tion of Miss Ora Holden.
March holds the promise of two oth
er entertainments: A St. Patrick's or
Iilsh S^tunt Program on the 19tn; and
an American Composer Recital on the
?7th. For the St. Patrick's evening
