O. D. Barrs Swims After His Fugitive Newton, April 18.—Sheriff O. D. Barrs and Deputy S. G. Jones have won reputations in swimming bouts recently. A few days ago while out on a liquor raid on the South Fork river about 200 yards from a mill pond belonging to Sanford Cline, the officers happened on a still and about 1,000 gallons of beer . After destroying the beer they de cided to wait awhile to see if some one would come up. While the of ficers were in hiding two men came up to look over the situation, but were soon surprised by the appear ance of the officers. Making a dash for liberty, they headed for the mill pond and sprang in, but Sheriff Barrs and Jones showed their sportsman ship by hopping in after them. Then it was that the swimming contest began. Jones could not show the speed the Sheriff had, and failed to get his man, but the sheriff went on across and nabbed his man when he hit the bank on the other side. He was brought to Newton and lodged in jail to await a hearing in Record ers court. MISS RUCKER HONORED. Rutherfordton, April 20. Miss Elizabeth Rucker, talented daughter of Dr. and Mrs. A. A.

N. STRIBUNG i NOW AT SPINDALE . i Will Supply Forest City and Spindale Presbyterian j Churches. The following is from Editor Isaac London of the Rockingham, N. C. Post-Dispatch and appeared in that paper last week. Comment ing personally on Rev. Stribling, Editor London savs: j "Mr. Stribling is an able minis ter and a most likeable gentleman and you will like him." j "It is with genuine regret not alone to his Presbyterian Congrega tion, hut to the community gener ally, that Rev. T. M. Stribling and wife are leaving Rockingham. "They left today for their new home in Spindale, two miles east of Rutherfordton, where he will sup ply the Presbyterian churches of Spindale and Forest City, fout miles distant. » "Mr. Stribling has been in the ministry for 26 years, having grad | uated at Louisville Seminary; he 1 was born at Westminster, S. C. Be-! j fore coming to Rockingham, Sept. 1, 1926, he was pastor at Waynes-j boro, Georgia. He was Moderator j for Mecklenburg fall Presbytery, j 1929. During his pastorate of the Rockingham Presbyterian church, he has been popular and earnest in his work. He was always ready in cooperating with the other denom inations, in holding union services; and this spirit will be missed in his departure. "Mr. and Mrs. Stribling have one son, Ross M. Stribling, who grad uated from Clemson in 1929, and who is now chief textile chemist in the American Enka Rayon plant at Asheville. ! "Our Rockingham people feel that in the leaving now of Mr. and Mrs. Stribling, the Presbytery of j Mecklenburg is loser and Kings [Mountain Presbytery is the gainer." i i - REV. T. L.
