The Louisburg Chamber ot Com
merce held Its regular meeting Tues
day night at 8:16 p. m. President S.
P. Boddle opened the meeting, and
the minutes of the previous meeting
were read by Secretary A. H. Flem
ing. Thirty mdn Were present to dis
cuss Loulsburg's business.
The tax equalisation committee re
ported that In keeping with their idea
a supervision o fproperty is being car
ried on now in Franklin county. Mr.
Joe Inscoe ls in Charge of this work
in Franklin county, apd has been in
each township who is assisting him
in the revaluation of property in the
county. Tula work is being done In
accordance with the State laws, and
it is hoped that property will be list
ed at its real value, thereby lower
lng the tax rate that is a scare crow
to prospective Investors in Franklin
county.
It is hlghty probable that the Town
Commissioners will provide a water
main for South "Louisburg, that wTll
extend through 'Kenmore Avenue to
the corner of Timberlake Street. This
line will give the needed facilities and
Are protection to the property owners
in this unprotected V -'ilty.
Advertising Loalsburg'
T. K. Stockard, publicity chairman,
reported a complete plan devised by
the publicity committee. This plan
provides for twelve 6x10 feet galva
nized Iron, Dnco finished, sign boards
advertising Louisburg, and featuring
our tobacco and cotton markets, tbrev
direct letters, with a circulation ot
4,000 to our farmer friends.. These
letters will go out as follows; One
just before the opening of the tobac.
co and cotton markets; one Decem
ber IS, to solicit Christmas trade;
one In the early, spring, to solicit
spring trade. Every merchant ot.
business man who contributes to Ihio
advertising fund will have his name
and business shown on. _ this letter.
The plan calls for a quarter page ad
vertjUementf in the Franklin Times
for sixteen weeks during the year.
The plan, calls tor moving picture
slides to be exhibited in the theatres
of Louisburg and at the Edward Best
and Epsom High Schools. The coet *s
estimated at about $1,600 for the en
tire program. The plan was received
enthusiastically by the Chamber ot
Commerce and Quickly adopted. T.
W. Watson, chairman of the finance
committee was instructed to put on
a drive for funds among the busi
ness men of Louishnrg. Grover C.
Harris and William E. White, Jr.,
will lead this drive, and it is hoped
that the business "men of LouisHttrg
will see the advantages of this co.
operative plan of advertising and sup
port it heartily.
Roads
M. S. Davis, chairman of roads com
mittee, reported that the Halifax road
going through Centervllle and Wood,
had been officially taken over by the
N. C. State Highway. The Clayton
Henderson road project Is encourag
ing in its outlook, but of course will
not materalixe for sojne time yet.
Cotton Market Facilities
It was learned, that the Town Com
nilesloners are working to secure a
right of way to "Hells Hiway" lead
ing to the present cotton storage
platforms, and to put this abomin
able stretch of impassablltty In good
shape before the. oncoming cotton
season.
A movement for a public cotton
platform was organised to work for
the establishment of a suitable public
platform to serve the patrons of Hid;
Loulsburg cotton market. Mr. Pool,!
representing the Seaboard Air Line
Railway Co., has already been in Lou
lsburg to Investigate the possibility
of bul)dlng a public cotton platform
and Increasing the side track and
teflm track facilities. S. A. L. engi

The expected air race to the Ha

when Ernest Smith, piloting a civil

the airport after having taken off
more than two hours later than the
Fokker machine. The air deflector on
Smith's plane was damaged and he
fore a new one could be fixed, the

, was too late to start, as the army had
a lead of almost five hours.
The clock-like precision with which
the Army plane was prepared and
departed on Its attempted non-?top

at the field with Lieuta. Lester J.

with ease and quickly attained an. al
