XJBS. W. J. COOPER DEAD
It was with much sorrow that the
announcement ot the death ot Mrs. W.
J. Cooper, which occurred at her
home on Ken more Avenue Monday
morning about 2:20, was received by
the many friends ot the family. Al
though Mrs . Cooper had been In bad
health for eight years, and had borne
her sufferings with a patience and
sacrifice only shared by true Chris
tians her death was unexpected to a
large number. She was 43 years of
age and besides her husband, she
leaves two daughters, Misses Beulah
and Louise, and three sons, Messrs.
WUllard, Lawrence and James Coop
er. Mrs. Cooper was the daughter
:Qt Mr. J. L. Bowden, of Justice, who
also survives her as does three broth
ers, Messrs. L. W. and H. C. Bow
den, of Raleigh, and J. C. Bowden, of
Justice, and four sisters, Mesdames
E. M. Perry, of Rocky Mount. Bob Hay
es, W. H. Stalllngs and O. S. Earp, ot
this county.
Mrs. Cooper possessed a beautiful
Christian spirit and was greatly loved
and admired by her many friends and
relghbors. She was a consistent mem
ber of the Loulsburg Baptist church.
The funeral was held from the home
on Monday afternoon at 5 o'clock, and
was conducted by Rev. J. A. Mclver,
after which the remains were gently
taken to Oaklawn cemetery where they
were tenderly lai<} to rest by loving
hands. At each service a choir ren
dered softly favorite hymns of the de
ceased and large numbers were pres
ent to pay a last sad tribute. The
floral offerings were profuse and beau
tiful, speaking a touching message ot
love and admiration.
The pall bearers were Messrs. W.
H. Allen, H. C. Taylor, L- J. Pernell,
W. M. Freeman, M. C. Murphy, W.
W- Webb.
The bereaved family has the deep
est sympathy of the entire community.

Points To Remember.
1. The North Carolina Sunday
School Association la a co-operative
effort of Sunday School workers ot
the evangelical denominations to ax
tend and improve Sunday School work
in North Carolina.
2. It Is the only organization In the
State which alma to help all depart
ments of every Sunday School, and to
help organise denominational Sunday
Schools in every community that has
no Sunday School.
| S. The organisation stands (or
thoae interests common to all Sunday
School workers. It strives to help by
way of suggestion, not by authority;
therefore, it helps many; It hinder*
none.
4. Seventy-one of the one hundred
counties in the State are now organ
ized into County Sunday School Aa
soclatlono. In the Convention year,
from April 1. 1922. to March 21, 1?23,
87 county conventions were held. In
these conventions 1,204 Sunday
Schools were represented by 16,800
people. Among those attending wtrs
466 preachers, 672 superintendents,
0,148 teachers.
6. During the Convention year 196
township conventions were held,
which was an Increase of nearly on*
hundred per cent, as only 102 were
held the previous year. ,
6. Two counties ? Rowan and Ca
barrus ? have covers*) one hundred par
cent ot the "County Alms." Randolph
County haa coverd ninety per cent ot
the "Aims"; Vance, eighty per cent;
Alamance and Guilford, fifty-five per
cent; Wayne, fifty percent.
7. As evidence of tha need of this
co-operative work' only about one In
three of the White population ot ;tho
Stat* I* enrolled In Sunday Schools,
and the aatual attendance Is lea* than
one In four.
MXJST MAKE 15 UNITS
\ "
To Graduate from High School
Subjects That Mist B? ro?plete4?
LonlNbarg High Sckool U Oil!
Staadtog? Will Be Well Equipped
To graduate from a Standard High
School a student must complete act
leas than fifteen units of work above
a standard seventh grade. A unit to
the credit allowed for the satisfactory
completion of a course pursued for lit
days with five recitations per week,
each recitation being not less than
forty minutes in length. In other
words a Unit means 120 clock hours
of recitations.
Sgmo subjects are so fundament*^
that they should be required of all
students who expect to graduate from
high school. They furnish the bast*
on which to build an education and
are necessary for those who go to
college as well as those who do not
go. In keeping with this idea, the
State Department of Education has
fixed a minimum requirement for ?
Standard High School. Every Stand
ard High School must require of all
students who graduate the following
subjects:
English ? 4 units.
Mathematics ? 2 units.
Science? 1 unit.
History ? 2 units.
Foreign Language ? 2 units.
Electives ? 4 units.
It will be seen from the above that
eleven units are prescribed for all
students who graduate from a Stand
ard High School in North Carolina.
This does not mean that every stu
dent will be compelled to study these
prescribe studies. There are many
boys and girls who for various causes
do not expect to complete a high
school course. To such, any course
in the high school Bhould be open, and
the high school should make special
effort to accommodate all such boys
and girls.
Louisburg High School has to day
a splendid rating with the State High
School Inspector and wants to main
tain the same high standard. We will
require of each student who expects
to graduate the -minimum course pre
scribed by those who rate high schools
For the four elective units we expect
I to offer the following additional sub
jects: Four units of foreign langu&ak
1 2 units of history and civics, one unit
of soience, one unit of Domestic
Science, one unit of Commercial Arith
metic, one unit of Bookkeeping, and
one unit of Stenograph It there Is fettf
ficient demands for it, one unit in
Plane Geometry. This Is a rather
wide program, but we believe it is
none too 'wide.
If students expect to go to 'college
after leaving? Mgh school, It is very
{essential that they keep this in mind
4n selecting Subjects of study. To
secure an education, there must be
some continuity of effort along deft'
nlte lines. The "cafeteria" plan ot
a little of this and a HttTr or that may
enable a lazy boy or a flapper girl to
'Sget through school", but they will be
far from educated.
We hope all the boys and girls who
come to Louisburg High School will
come with the determination to stick
to a definite course with the idea of
going to college later. Our experi
ence has been that such boys and
girls make the best students and are
happier in their work than the fellow
who Is simply browsing around.
Within the next 'few days we expect
to send out to the patrons and friends
of the school, an outline of the work
to be offered by years or grades. Next
week please look tor a little argument
why every boy and girl should grad
uate from high school.

10 MEET TWICE A MONTH
At a meeting of the Cotton and To
baeeo growers In the Court House at

in franklin Superior Court. This la
possibly the most interesting case in
this term owing to the nature of the

deservedly popularity, through his

damages on the grounds that her hus
band lost his life in an automobile ac

railroad. This case has been set for
next Tuesday.
Judge Calvert was very lenient Mon

will probably hold on thrcugh next

ENTERTAINS
On Thursday, August 23, Mr. and
Mr*. H. B. Ffcrrell delightfully enter
tained at a family reunion, all their
children, grand-children, great-grand
children, their aons-ln-law and a tew
intimate friends.
All that have ever experienced one
'Of (boa* family reunions out on a farm
father and mother Hying know
how to apprve'.ate them, and know the
thrill they gi? > no matter ho* olil
or Mttf we ire.
Every child, grand-child, great
grand-child and son-in-law waa there
and nothing could haye been more
enjoyable'
The main feature' of the reunion
J waa the dinner which consisted of
tmrtooue, brunswiok stew, sandwich
es, oake. pickle, coffee and lemonade.
Not one thing happened to mar the
pleasure* of that day. The table*
were built under an enormous iim
brella tree which grew out fn the yard
there waa quite a crowd but its
braaohee were long enough to coyer
all and although nature sent a mist
ing rain all day It could not penetrate
the density of that old umbrella tree
'and a dinner never could have been
enjoyed more. After dinner games
ware played and reminiscences of hap
py childhood days were brought forth
fcy ludicrous tales told by stalwart
men and women of days long ago but
ever a delightful memory. J he aged
parents never looked sweeter or bet
ter to us and it was a day never to be
forgotten by all who were there, es
pecially the children of the home.
1 tell ybu folks It was great and if
W* can never all get together on an
other occasion just like that I do hope
some way will be fixed for many more
reunions.
One thing the bootleggers never
have to contend With Is a buyers'
