It is generally understood that the Democratic Executive -committe will meet withia the next two weeks and deighat a tbn far a wintary leet a candidate. A second primary will probably be necessary in view of the large number of candidates who are expected to take the field. The primary win probably be held some time in August, and the election in November. ' No uncertainty attaches to , the candidacy of Judge Kerr, He is qooted by close friends a being an active candidate for the, place, and it is claimed that he has bee assured of a wide support in several counties.

A letter was sent out to the county superintendents with their allocation of funds, and in explanation of the distribution. Dr. Dye's Fine Address Raleigh high school, with its 71 members of the graduating class, pulled off the most successful com mencement before 2,500 people in the city auditorium. Two-thirds of the "grads" were girls and the class was described as the brightest ever turned out of Raleigh "high." The most enjoyable feature to the audience generally was the fine ad dress of Dr. Dye, of Vanderbilt uni versity, Nashville, Tenn., with "A Man" as his subject. Newspaper men who have attended innumerable commencements and listened to untola addresses, unitedly declared Dr. Dye's was the finest, most fluently delivered and entertaining speech (not MSS) ever heard at a like occasion in Ra leighand that is saying something.

"The Piedmont Limited" is con sidered a most appropriate name for Nos. 33 and 34, as between Montgom ery and Washington they traverse the country along the eastern slope of the Blue Ridge, widely known as the Piedmont- section. Thirty years ago this line was advertised and widely known as the Piedmont Air Line. Since its inauguration, "The Piedmont Limited" has made an excellent on time record and has proved very popular.
