Crossnore School Wants Homes For Children Our appeal for homes and jobs for our children for this summer brought most gratifying results. Most ot our big girls have been placed—some ot them with good wages which will solve many a problem for them. Not so many of our big boys have gotten work, and we still hope that some of them may be wanted. Even though kind hearts have taken a number ot our little folks, and they are happy in their summer homes and proud of be ing able to help, still there are two dozezn more that -need so very much to have some such change, to be in a home, and feel themselves a part of it. Aren’t there still some homes that will take them? Half of Xhese are boys, and halt girls, and they range In age from six to 12 years. Some of them could be so helpful in a home, and all of them would so like io be loved. We are |not asking you to take all of our little ones—or big ones either. There are a good many of the little ones that we think it best for us to keep tor another summer, anyway, and there must be some big ones here to tend the land and cook the meals. But we do feel that aside from their very great help it is to us when you take one of these kiddles, you ate adding such a lot to the I{^ of these youngsters, and WB believe are adding happiness to your own life. So think about it again, and see If. you haven’t room for one of them. CROSSNORE SCHOOL, Inc. Crossnore, N. C.

Ends Long Jaunt With His Old Model ‘T’ Ford Detroit, May 18.—Driving a 1917 Model T Ford, In continu ous service for 18 years, and with what remained of 720 pounds of groceries, provisions and gasoline on board, Elmer Sherrill and his family rolled Into Detroit last week to end a four-day “pleasure jaunt” from Santa Ana, California. Arriving in Detroit, the Sher rills took delivery of a new Ford V-8 Fordbr touring sedan, made an inspectTon trip through the Ford -Rouge plant, saw the sights and started back to California, the old Model T in tow of the new touring sedan. A Santa Ana chemist, Sherrill piled up 'borne remarkable rec ords on his 2,640-mlle trip across the continent. With his wife and son, Lynn, he started the jour ney in the Model T, carrying a total passenger, grocery and equipment load of 1,130 pounds. They camped en route, cooking meals on a home-made, pan plac ed on, the muffler of Abe can. They averaged 30.7 mlieS an hour driving time and 25.1 miles per gallon of gasoline. The total cost of the trip, en route, was |18. The trip was made-in 97 hours. On arrival, -the speedomet er of the 18-year-old car regis tered 110,268. After taking delivery of the new touring sedan, the Sher rills packed all their luggage, which filled the back section of the Model T, Into the roomy trunk of the touring sedan, booked a tow^bar onto the old car—and hopped off for Cali fornia. “The old car has been too faithful a companion to part with her,’’ said Sherrill. “We’re going to retire her Into lighter service. FYom now on, Lynn will drive the Model T to and from school. We’re going to make a lot of trips this year, and we had to have this new touring sedan.’’ Wlood engraving was introduc ed in the year ot 1527. of the evangelist in the Sunday night service, pledging their pray ers and their whole-hearted sup port back of the final outcome of the meeting And, already, many persons have asked for prayer while others have expressed a de sire for church affiliation. Special music and congregation al singing is rapidly becoming a feature of the services, and a children’s choir is ill the - making. Leading soloists of the city have made their appearance in the serv- ires and will continue throughout the campaigrn, it is said. John Ker- mit Blackburn is leading the song services and his services come as a distinct feature of assistance to Oscar Barrett, director of music. Mr. Ban;ett, wly„ suffered a frac tured lip wTf the assistance of Mr. Blackburn in, the song sgrv- ice, find much timS tot personal work among the young people of the community. Outstanding sermons delivered j by Rev. Mr. Jennin^ bear such titles as: “Spider Webs of Crea tion.” “Lost.” “Up a Tree” and “Let’s Turn Back To God,” and “The Experiences of My Life,” which was scheduled for Monday night. Other sermons yet to be delivered and to which much favor able comment has been given in | other places are: “Scaling the Heights,” “The Meanest Man in Town,’^ “How Beautiful Heaven Must Be,” and others In fact, it is said that each sermon increases in its interest and appeal, each tending to show an increasing need for a response to the general theme of the meeting—“Let’s Turn Back To God.” Organization of a children’s prayer league in which each child joining pledges to offer a morning prayer throughout its life and to adopt as its life’s motto a slogan of that prayer and the league ■which reads: “When I find Him in the morning, I can keep Him thru the day,” has met with a hearty response from parents and church es and promises to develop into a force for good that will build its way into better citizenship thru- out the future. All children are invited to these services which are held exclusively for their benefit on Tuesdays and Saturdays at 10:30 a. m. Invitations are extended to > all rural efaurdies and their choirs and it is expected that special se-' lections and songs from rural groups will prove, interesting and effective throughout |main- der of the services. AD jiffjfini, says Rev. Mr. Jenning^, are in vited to each and every service. New Ho^ital Head Elkin, May 18.—Or. Charles Haywood, Jr., of Durham, has been chosen to succeed Dr. Harry L.
