Immediately after lunch, the children will be required to take a rest period. Cots and sufficient bed covering will be available for each child to have individual resting or sleeping quarters. “The chief aim of the nursery school is to aid the child in ad justing himself to the school room,” Prof. Halfacre stated last night. “The great majority of re peaters are forced to remain in the first grade two yea's largely because they are unable to adjust themselves in the early part of their first year. The average cost of teaching a child in the North Wllkesboro elementary school is $30.00 per year. If by conducting the nursery school and aiding the children in getting ready for school work, we are able to elimi nate some of the repeaters, many dollars will be saved the taxpay ers. Not only will cost be saved, but the child will be able to fin ish school a year earlier, and have an extra year as a producer rath er than an added year as a con sumer.” ' ;Many toys and pieces of play apparatus have be«n provided for the entertainment (of the children Ragtag their leisure bioments. The children and relatives of J. C. Rash. of Millers Creek, gave him a surprise birthday dinner Sunday, Feb. 11, Saturday, Feb ruary lOtb being his 88th birth day. All of his living children were present to take dinner with him. The party was composed of children and grandchildren and families, and friends of Mr. Rash. About 10:30 the children be gan to gather. As some of the party came In sight of the home they saw Mr. Rash making his way tJ the church for services as he has done all of these yqprs. Upon returning home he was very much surprised to find all of bis cl ’ldrcn with him once mo.’-, but was very much delighted. At this time dinner was announced and all gathered in the old log kitchen where they had partaken of many meals. (The weather was too cold, prohibiting a table being spread outdoors). There being a bountiful dinner spread on the old family table with ad ditions of other tables. Grandpa was seated at the end of the ta ble at bis accustomed place and the children gathered close by. Rev. A. \V. Eller, being a special guest, asked God's blessings on the home and children and re turned thanks for the bountiful dinner that was spread. After all the dinner things were cleared, the party gathered in a large room for a short serv ice of worship after some old time songs with Grandpa helping sing as he has always been fond ot vocal music. Rev. A. W. Eller read a scripture lesson, after which Mr. J. H. Kilby vocalized prayer. Then a song "What a Friend we have in Jesus." Broth er Eller announced his subject “Using Our Own.” He preached a wonderful sermon and was very appropriate for the occasion bringing to bear on the mind that all who used what God had given them Had the promise of a long life. He also stressed on tbe minds of his hearers to first seek God and his Righteousness and all things will be added. Brother Eller requested a song and asked all to take Grandpa by the hand as a token and appreciation of his long life. After prayer by the preacher the congregation sang a song, “God be with you till we meet again.” All departed wishing Grandpa many more birthdays.—Report ed. JUW RAmr; . . .

V'.A tyies’oAlIWi L Flaimd[‘ »a~ a.- f $4.95 SMoag Tale T.J; Robertson ' ^es Held Here Former North Wilkesboro Publisher Dies; He Re sided At Madison EVIDENCE OF ELECTION YEAR BEGINS TO APPEAR (CoTitirued from page one) Deputy Collector* Helping Taxpayers Judge John.son J. Hayes became a federal jurist, has not made any announcement, but is expected to be a candidate to succeed himself. Another local man in the person of A. H. Casey, a well known member of the Wilkes bar and chairman of the Republican coun ty executive committee, is being talked on the streets as a possible candidate. Mr. Casey stated over the telephone yesterday that he did not have any statement to make at the present, but may consider entering the campaign^ It Is very probable that oth^ counties in the district may of fer candidates before the time for filing expires. Most of the street gossip about candidates for county offices has centered around the Republican aspirants. The Democrats as yet have given no inkling of any slate of candidates. While Sheriff W. B. Somers and Clerk of Superior Court W. A. Stroud have made no public statement as to whether they will seek re-nomination in the June primary, several names have been mentioned in connection with the offices they now hold. Among those who are talked for sheriff on the Republican ticket are H. C. Kilby, Chief Deputy Sheriff Oid Wiles, C. C. Hayes and Sherman Anderson. This list is by no means reliable and sev eral more names may be suggest ed if Sheriff Somers should de cide not to seek office again. Potential candidates for Mr. Stroud's office include Prof. T. E. Story, Dave Mink. J. B. Nor ris, C. C. Hayes, Ed Dancy and a host ot others. These names were suggested J>y political observers who admit that the list may be altogether incorrect when the time comes to dig up one per cent of annual salary and hand it over to the county board of elections before tbe names are added to the primary list. That is the situ ation this year and those who muddy the waters must pay a fee for permission to do so. As to the other offices, includ ing those mentioned above, your guess is as good as anyone’s. The only safe prediction is that the next three months will find many a candidate traveling hither and yon Into the corners and nook.s looking for votes-;—votes which are necessary when knocking at the door of publl^ office. Last rites for T. J. Robertson, former Noiin Wllkesboro pub lisher, who died in Wesley Long Hospital in Greensboro Monday morning, were conducted from the Presbyterian church here yesterday afternoon at 2:30 o’ clock. The service was in charge of Rev. C. W. Robinson, pastor, who was assisted by Rev. W. H. Willis, Rev. B. E. Williamson and Rev. E. O. Ward, ot Madison. The funeral party was com posed ot a large number ot citi zens of Madison where Mr. Rob ertson was. ’ litcated tbe last 16 years of 'Ms life. Following the service at the church, the Masons took charge and conducted the Masonic service at the 'grave in the Presbyterian cemetery. Joe Robertson, as he was known in Wilkes when he resid ed here, was 70 years of age. He had been in declining health for more than a year and had been I confined to his room the greater part of the pust three months. Muscular atrophy was the cause of death. ' Mb. Robertson came to North Wilkesboro from Kernersvllle al most 40 years ago and started the North Wllkesboro Hustler. He disposed of his business here several years later and moved to South Hill, Va. He later returned and resumed newspaper work here. About 16 years ago, he moved to Madison where he edit ed and published The Messenger, a weekly newspaper. He was a Presbyterian, having first joined the church here in 1897. Wherever he resided, Mr. Rob ertson always took an active part in tbe social, civic and religious life of the community. He had served as mayor of Madison and as president of the Madison Ro tary Club. He was a member of the Masonic order.

' | The allegation as to the incom-,' petency of the court was based on a contention that some of the jur ors were not properly qualified, and that the indictments were de fective. Details of the alleged de fects were not available. The quartet remained in custody ’ of Sheriff Wood. They had supper! here after the hearing and left on | their 140-mile return trip to Bre-'. vard by automobile shortly after] 10 o’clock. -'J- Six mVimrv . . .
