IT WITH SONGS” _
AT SUNSET THEATRE
A1 Jdlson, sings to the unseen mil
lions In “Say 1TWith Songs," Warner
Bros, latest all-talking, all-singing
'picture whidh comes to the Sunset
Theatre Monday and Tuesday.
As Joe Bane, radio entertainer,
■the star has -many opportunities to
sing—which he does not only for the
broadcasting station, but from pris
on where he is sent as the result of
an accidental Killing.
Jolson does not resort to burnt
cork in "Say It With Songs," since
his audiences, supposedly never see
him. Although he sings a group of
songs that will be heard around the
world, he plays the part of a man
who considers himself a hopeless
failure. "Say It With Songs” is
the most tenderly emotional of all
Jolson’s stories.
It was written by Darryl Zanuek
and Harvey H. Gates and the talk
ing scenario is by Joseph Jadkson.
Davey Lee, four-year-old baby star,
again shares honors with Jolson in
a cast which indudes Marian Nixon,
Holmes Herbert, Kenneth Thompson
and Fred Kohler.

Route 90 Left Out
In Cold In April
State Road Letting
That the more than $5,000,000 in
road construction projects now un
der way in the state road system up
to date is stated by M. R. Dunnagan,
Raleigh correspondent, in reviewing
these projects,
Listed in the projects still under
construction is the topsoiling of ten
miles of No. 90 east of Lexington.
This is a continuation of the project
begun a year ago and proposed for
completion last fall. Indications now
are that it .still, prdbahly be opened
for traffic about June 1 or shortly
thereafter.* jg.-.- i? . ■«- -
ESariy in the year a list of pro
posed construction projects was sent
out by a Raleigh correspondent but
the story was quickly corrected. This
list included the linking up off the gaps
in Highway 90 between Pittsboro and
Apex and between Fork and Mocks
ville, Davie county. Neither of these
•are included in the April 1929 letting.
There is ten miles of widening No.
10 east of Greensboro, perhaps the
largest project in the fifth district
for the April letting.

Town Of Archdale
Shows Tremendous
Growth In Decade
Population Increased From 178
In 1820 To 638 In 1930, Or
About 350 Per Cent.
Trinity Increases Too
But Not So Much As Archdale—
New Hope And Grant Town*
ships Show Big Losses.
Probably no .town in Randolph
county will show a greater increase
in population, after 1930 census
figures are tabulated, than Archdale.
According to A. I. Ferree, eight dis
trict census supervisor, the population
of Archdale, as shown by census just
completed, is 638, or an increase of
more than 350 per cent over 178 in
1920.
"The town of Trinity also made a
gain, but not so large as Archdale.
The 1930 census places the population
of Trinity it 554, a gain of 154 in 10
_yearfc.
Pleasant Grove township, Randolph
county, shows an increase in popula
tion of 45, there being 467 people ii»
the township as against 422 in 1920.
New Hope township shows a de
crease in population of 203, the 1930
census given the township 884 people,
while in 1920 the population of the
township was 1,087.
Grant township shows a loss of 118
people, there being 876 in the precinct
as against 990 in 1920.
Complete tabulations have not been
made in Asheboro, a re-check being
made in some of the wards, but ap
proximately 4,700 people have been
enumerated and it is expected the
number will reach 5,000. This will
represent an increase of1 about 100
per cent in ten years.
SENATE COMMITTEE VOTES
AGAINST JUDGE "PARKER
It appears that Circuit Judge John
J. Parker, of Charlotte, has little
chance becoming a member of the
Supreme Court of (the United States,
though nominated for this high place
by President Hoover and supported
generally by bar associations over the
country. Immediately after Parker’s
nomination, organized labor began a
fight on him and apparently has suc
ceeded m defeating him Labor’s posi
tion against "Parker is sald' to he due
to a decision which he rendered once
upholding a „ controversy between a
coal mining company and its employes.
The Senate judiciary committee on
Monday voted against Parker by 10
to 6. Chances for Parker now are
gloomy. Not in 36 years before had
the judiciary committee stamped its
disapproval on a nominee for Supreme
Cburt justice, and it is not likely the
Senate will override the committee
in this instance, something which it
has never done before.
Mansfield-Garrett
The following will be of interest to

nomination for U. S. Senate from
North Carolina, he announced Tues
day, though it had been rumored he
would be in the race. Republican can
didates so far are Major George But
ler, of Clinton, 'Rev. Grady Dorsett, of
Wake Forest, and George M. Pritch

If The Census Enumerator Has Missed You,
Fill Out The Blank Below And Mail At Once
Have you and the members of your
family been enumerated in the census,
which began April 2. If not, you
should see.to it at once that your
names are placed on the census roll.
For convenience of any whom the
census takers have missed, there is a
coupon elsewhere in this issue which
you are asked to fill out and mail the
census supervisor. It costs nothing
more than a 2 cent stamp, and it will
mean much for your community and
to you* self, of course, to have your
name enrolled on the census rolls.
It is important for the welfare of
the city of Asheboro that every mag,
woman- and child in the corporated
limits be enumerated. The census
figures stand for ten years. For Ashe
boro to get the utmost benefit which
may be derived from a large popula
tion, it is necessary that every person
in the city be enumerated. Don't
Attempt To Escape
From The Randolph
County Jail Foiled
.Tailor Brookshire Gets On To
Racket And Wholesale De- '
livery Frustrated.
Between 10:00 and 11:00 o’clock
Sunday night Jailor T. A. Brookshire
and Mrs. Brookshire were attracted by
the soand of hack saws at work on
the bars of the windows of the first
floor in the rear of the jail. When
Mr. Brookshire went into the large
room where 12 men, who are road
force prisoners, are kept, he found
four hack saw blades. Several of the
men had on their shoes and appeared
sure of their escape. Mr. Brookshire
suspects relatives and Sunday visitors
of aiding in the {dot by slipping the
instruments to the men. This will,
cause a tightening of the reins on
visitors to the Randolph Jail. Later
on in the night, Mr. and Mrs. Brook
shire were attracted by a car moving
slowly up and down the street behind
the jail and shining the lights on the
side street which had apparently been
set for the meeting. It was the opin
ion of officers that a car was ready to
take the men away after they finished
with the saws. Not only did 'the car
continue to pass up and down but one
person became bold, and perhaps anxi
ous, and came near the jail in the
honeysuckle vines growing thickly be
hind the building. Mr. Brookshire
surprised this man by walking around
the premises, and after he had fired 3
shots in the air as a warning was not
bothered further.

course is similar .to that which was
recently constructed on Highway 90,

limits of the city.
take any chances. If the census tak
ers have not seen you, or you are
practically certain they did not enroll
your name, fill out the coupon and
mail it at once to the census super
visor. Or, if you have time, call to
see him. If you know of any person
whose name has not been gotten, send
that information in also. The census
supervisor will do the rest.
If every person within the corporat
ed limits of Asheboro is enumerated
in the census, we may expect a popu

the population ten years ago. This
will not include, of course, the people
in those populous areas especially to
the north and west of the city. Let
