NUMBER 22 TEDEl ROBESONlAK High School Meeting Favorable Sentiment Growing Mass Meeting Friday Night Strong speeches Made in l avor of Pro posed High School Outrageous Treatment Given Advocates of the Proposed School by Superintend ent of Lumberton Cotton Mills- Mcssrs. Gough and "Sentelle Lock ed Out of School Auditorium and Lights Turned Off When They Wanted to Address Citizens of Mill Village Sentiment Seems to be Growing in Favor of School. A large number of men, women and children assembled in the court house Friday evening to show their interest in the proposed high school for Lumberton township. Earnest and enthusiastic speeches were niad-3 by several citizens and altogether it was a very interesting an8 profitable meeting. As stated in Monday's Robesonian, a mass meeting of the same nature as this was held on last Thursday night and it was then decided to hold another meet ing. The influence of these meet, ings will no doubt be felt in the election to be held here tomorrow on the question of creating of Lum berton township a high school dis trict, issuing bwids therefor in the -sum of $20,000, and levying a tax only a small tax for the support of : tho same. ..... : Lights and Light Mr J. P. -Russell, president of the Chamber of Commerce, presided, call ing the meeting to order at 8:30. Mr. Russell then explained the pur Pose of the meeting. This meating is hold for the purpose of deciding on 'the proposed school bonds and is the seconj meeting that we have had of this kind, Mr. Russell said. "We have very poor lights here tonight, 1 am sorry to say, but I hope that we have plenty of light morally and spiritually," stated Mr. Russell. "The light of men goes farthur than any other light. 'Between the ,boV or girl who i sitting on a three legged stool beside an old table studying with the aid f a candle but who has spirtual light and a boy or girl in a fine chair and studying under a fine electric light who has not got spiritual light, give me the one that is studying under the candle light." Mr. Russell stated that he wanted to hear from the opponents on this - question and wanted them to ask Aill the questions they wanted to on it. He said that he was not going to answer the questions but he had men there who would answer them satisfactorily. Mr. Russell then vailed on Mr. Frank Gough to ex plain tne situation as lie saw it. Mr. Gough Favors Tax Mr. Gough is heartily in favor of the proposed high school, and made ;i very interesting speech. He said in part: "I am in favor of a high school, a low school or any other kind of a school that has anything to do with the upbuilding and bet 'torment of the community. I am willing to have my property taxed for this high school. While I only have one child to educate and I am not obliged to haVe a high school to educate him in, I am able to send "him off to receive his high school education, but thank God I don't be long to that set of selfish people who say, "Oh well, I am able to ed ucate my children without sending them to a high school and I will not Ibother about yours.' I am in fa vor of a high school for the prin- -iple of the thing if for nothing else. Advocates of High School Insulted "I would not be true to myself and to you if I were not to explain to you tonight a matter that has been going from mouth to mouth today in regard to the treatment Prof. Sentelle and I received at East Lum berton last night. Twelve years ago I started a religious movement there. I devoted a great deal of time to the cause and stood by the pe. .pie in person and not 'n proxy. I labored with the people and did all Uiat I could for them. Last night in com. rany with Prof. Sentelle I wnt .ut there to hold a mass meeting an,i yive the people some information on the proposed high school proposi- ceived at East Lumberton Thursday i night.

"Take the churches and schools out of Rrbeson county for 10- miles around Lumberton and I would not have the land if you would give it to me," declared the speaker. We are at the crisis right now The high school education up to the time ones goes to college is very valu able, more valuable than a college education. People Follow Good Schools Mr. Mclntyre said he was at Blanck Ankle Thursday and was talk ing to a man in regard to school fa cilities, ihis man said he was in favor of good schools, and that they have good schools that runs 6 months, but, he said, "I want to have a law passed to levy a tax on us so that we may have a better school." "I am glad that there are some who are in favor of an educa tion," said the speaker. "I am sure that you all will not get any more cursing if you vote for this high school than I did when I started the graded school; and look what it has done. It has broueht Deonle here.

Mr. Johnson's address was a gem and no doubt will cive the neo- ple of that section encouragement to go forward with the great work thev have undertaken. This school, housed in one of the most up-to-date and modern in ev every respect brick building tn he found in the State, is located in one of the best rural districts, not on ly in Robeson county or North Car olina, but in the world. It is right in the center of the first rural dis trict in the United States to com plete the sanitary health work. It is in this community that one can see the real pleasure and sweetness of country life demonstrated. One visitor at the commencement was heard to remark that it made one feel five years younger just to spend a few hours in that progressive com munity. Ihere boys and girls are not only given a literary training, but are taught agriculture and do mestic science and one only has to see the work, such as cooking, sew ing, drawing and other things, to think what it will mean to the boys and girls of the "State of Robeson" who come in contact with the school. In connection with the school a farm i, being cultivated, modern and i'p-to-,late barns and stables are be ing erected and every phase of farm life from the growing of the food stuff to the preparing it for the ta ble is taught. Prof. S. J. Kirby is principal of the farm-life department school and is ably assisted No Immorality nr Corrupt im But I pcontrolled Temper Says Legis lative Committee Record gain Soluitor Abernethy Should be Ex purged. haleigh Dispatch, 1st. The legislative committee that in vestigated the charges brou'jh1 ;:'ain.l;t Judge Frank Carter, as .he f utc(me of the Carter-Abernethy con troversy, made its findings yester day afternoon. The report is lengthy and in de tail. It absolves Judge Carter from charges reflecting on his moral char acter and finds no trace whatever of any corruption, but it does assert that the judge was wroner in his ac tion in New Bern, "acting harshly and arbitrarily, unwisely exercised his judicial discretion, lost his tem per and used intemperate language, but at no time acted corruptly." Therefore the committee finds that Solicitor Abernethy is entitled to have the record made against his in the contempt case exnuneed. Tli- committee does not find, however, that the solicitor was wrong in not obeying the mandate of the judge to be seated. The committee finds no grounds for impeachment. i'.'H . I o r: Tr."
