CAPTAIN C.J. RHEM
Elected Superintendent 01 Tha
State Farm.
After thirty-six years in the ser
vice of the Suite prison, first as a
guard and last as superintendent
of the Prison Farm four miles west
of Raleigh, Capt. C. N. Christian
was notified yesterday that after
February I the prison farm would
be placed in the hands of Capt. C.
J Rhem.
Election of Captain Rhem to the
superintendent's place occurred on
Wednesday ut the regular session
of the board of directors of the
State prison. It was understood
here yesterday that Captain Chris
tian would be offered the place
which Captain Rhem will leave to
come to Raleigh, superintendent
of the convict gangs at work on
the Willijmsion bridge, but no
such offer had been made to him
last night.
Both Captain Rhem and Captain
Christian are veterans in the em
ploy of the State prison. The
former has been in the service for
32 years, he having gone to the
Halifax county farm in 1890 as a
guard. Later when the farm de
veloped to such tremendous size
it was divided, and each made su
perintendent of one-h'lf of the
7,000 acres under cultivation.
No charges of any sort were
made against Captain Christian, it
was understood. Members of the
board of directors felt thf t it was
due Captain Rhem that he be given
the farm here for a term, in that
he had been left without such a
place when the Halifax farms were
sold two years ago. At that time
he expressed a willingness to go
anywhere he was sent, and the
choice fell on him to go to Wil
liamston, and Captain Christian to
come to Raleigh.
Wur.-i on the big bridge over the
Roanoke river at Williamsfon
where about 300 convicts are en
gaged, will be completed by June
of this year, and that camp will be
abandoned. It is likely that the
prisoners there will be scattered
into smaller groups ia various sec
tions of the State. News and Ob

ADVERTISING HELPS CREDIT.
There is one way by which a
business man's credit is improved,
and that is by a policy of consis
tent advertising. Bank men
believe in advertising, for they
know it pays. Their teeling, there
fore, is that when a merchant who
is a good advertiser applies for a
loan, that a reasonable amount ol
goods, bought by him on credit, is
likely to be turned over quickly
and promptly paid for, un account
of methods ot keeping his goods
constantly before the public. The
banker would have confidence that
the goi ds would be disposed of
and ti rned into cash before, they
got oui of date or shopworn.
Discriminating buyers of every
class know they can get fresh gooc's
from the store that advertises. The
merchant who advertises seldom
has shopworn goods. And in that
way advertising helps the mer
chant's credit not only with the
banks but with the customers. And
one is just as important as the oth
er. U. D. C.
The Daughters of the Confeder
acy met with Mrs. Geo. D. Hawks
on Wednesday, of last week.
There were a number of the
Daughters present. Mrs. Ida
Wilkins, the President for last
year, who had resigned on account
of ill health was present. Mrs.
Williamson, the President, re
signed, and Mrs. Wilkins was pre
vailed on to accept the Presidency
for another twelve months.
All were rejoiced to know that
Mrs. Wilkins was sufficiently rer
covered to be able to be with the
Daughters again. Mrs. Lee John
son very touchingly read "The
Sword of Lee," Mrs. 0. W. Pierce,
Mrs. J. A. Johnston, Mrs. D. R.
Anderson and Mrs. R. H. Mer

Things That Happened 33
Years Ago in Town

Clerk Gregory on Monday show
ed us a will, which he said was so
unusual that he had. never in his
long experience as clerk seen be
fore. It was a will bequeathing
real and personal property and was
signed by four persons, all whom
are still living. It was sent to Mr.
Gregory for probate. He had of
course to decline to admit it to
probate as the law only provides
for the probate of wills of deceased
persons.

Several of our colored citizens

AGAINST THE LAW.
We publish the following ordi
nance for the benefit of those who
apparently, do not know, that it is
against the law 10 skate on any of
the sidewalks in town. Some of
our sidewalks in the residential
portion of the town, are narrow,
and on these sidewalks, it is with
difficulty fur pedestrians and the
skating population to pass without
having a collision. Here is the
law:
"No skating with roller or tee
skates shall be permitted upon the
sidewalks of any of the streets or
avenues within the corporate lim
its ot the town. Any person viola
ting this ordinance, shall, upon
conviction; pay a fine of two dol
lars and fifty cents for each and
every offense."

DODGE BROTHERS TO LET
DOWN THE BARS.
Announce price reduction Feb
ruary 1. Retroactive to January
1 . Dodge Brothers will announce
on February I, 1922 a substantial
reduction in the price of their cars,
effective January 1, 1922.
The outstanding feature of the
maneuver from the trade stand
point, however, is that it leaves
competitors in the dark as to what
is going to happen. They can
guess to their heart's content, they
can bid against Dodge Brothers, if
they are good poker players, but
until the blind card is turned on
the third day of the Chicago show
the value of their own hands, if
,hey happen to be closely compet
itive, will be pure speculation.
FIRE ENGINE ORDERED.
At a meeting of the town com
missioners last Monday night, an
order was given the Americjn
La France Machine Company, of
Elmira, N. Y., for a Chemical Fire
Engine. The original cost ol the
engine is $2,500. The engine is
expected to arrive in about thirty
days. Our city fathers do not intend
that any property shall be des
troyed in Weldon, if being prepar
ed to fight fire will prevent it.
CARD OF THANKS.
We wish to thank the people of
Weldon who so kindly remember
ed us Christmas, with so many
good things. Especially Mr. Bush
Howell, his companion and their
little children in the band.

done by all.

Fl'st Meeting ol the New Year.
The Elizabeth Montfort Ashe
Chapter D. A. R., held their
first meeting for the year, in Hali
fax, on Thursday, January 1 2th,
Miss Ursula Daniel who has served
as Regent since the chapter was
organized in 1912, until Decem
ber last, was hostess to the chapter
at this meeting, which was held in
the "old Constitution House"
which has been rebuilt on another
site and has just been completed
for occupancy, The building and
grounds are a monument to the
faithful and unceasing labor of the
late Regent, who asked to be re
lieved, and Mrs. W. A. Wilcox
was elected in her place. The
ladies were received into the old
passage or hall of the quaint little
house and were served delicious
fruit punch by Mrs. H. B. Furger
son and Mrs S. M. Gary. The
punch was served from a beautiful
ly decorated in a green and gold
punch bowl with a large old fash
ioned silver ladle which belonged
to Miss Daniel's great grand father
and are perhaps a century old.
The main room of the building
is a reproduction of the room in
which the famous Halifax meeting
of April 17, 1776 was held, and
it is the purpose of the chapter to
furnish it as nearly as possible in
the style of thai period and in har
mony with the high curved mantle,
narrow, small panel windows, &c.
A very interesting business ses
sion was held. Delegates and al
ternates to the National conven

Harrell and Mrs. Ida Wilkins, of
Weldon. At the close, a salad

of Weldon, Mrs. Norman, Mrs.
Applewhite and Mrs. E. L. Travis,
Jr.. nee Miss Annie Kitchin, one
of the season's brides and others,
