SHEALEY GIVES
UP FLYING GAME
Aviator Savs He Can Not
Interest People in (fom
mercial Aviation
"I am through with aviaticfn and ex
pect to go into something elw. you can t
a .
get any co-operation arouanu eie m
promoting it and as soorl as I finish
With this Winter's progratm I'm going
to quit and go into KomethlfiS else. If an
other war comes and th&re is a call
for flyers I'm going tolet somebody
ilse do it. I'm fed up".
So savs Tj. S. Sheale". veteran flyer
of the Great "War. wh6 has been flying
in and around Charlotte and in other
cities if North Carolina and South Car
olina as a connnforcial flyer.
Mr. Shealey lUer amended his state-
nient that he would let the United
States depend on other flyers in case of
need, but allowed to stand the intima
tion that h; was considerably disgusted
with the response that he had met with
in this section in an honest effort to
awaken public interest in commericial
flying pY in vflying of any kind. Al
thou(Cn he has been steadly at it since
he returned from many heirbreac'.lh
escapes with the U. S. flying forces
"Over There", he sees no immediate pro
pect that wide-spread interest in com
mercial flying will be in effect in this
section. It may come, he thinks, but
it is not to be expected at once. He
thinks commercial aviation is altogether
practical, but there is need of pioneers
to se ethe possibiliies in it and organ
ize to put it on a sound financial basis.
Mr. Shealey is a native of Newberry,
S- C, and gave up a perfectly good job
to join Uncle Sam's flying forces in
France. Having become an expert, he
was enthusiastic about developing
commercial flying and saw what he
thought were early possibilities in this
section.
MANY LONG FLIGHTS
His longest flight was from mid-North
Carolina over Mount Mitchell, the high
est peak east of the Mississippi, into
Tennessee, which he did last Spring
an dentirely without mishap or un
toward incident in his Curtis bi-plane.
He has carried people from Charlotte
to all points of the compass and one
afternoon took a prominent Charlotte
lady to Hickory in 49 minutes to call
on a friend and brought her back later
in the afternoon.
Mr. Shealey will add a feature to the
Armistice Day celebration Friday by
flying over the city both before and af
ter the parade and during the day. His
base of operation will be the Myers
Park fllying field, where he will re
ceive passengers. He has sent an invi
ation to Goernor Cameron Morrison to
take a flight with him Armistice Day,
when the Governor comes here with
his full staff to celebrate the day and
to speak at the unveiling of the marker
to Mecklenburg county's dead at the
court house. In case the Governor, who
has never bee nup in an aeroplane,
declines the honor of taking his first
flight over his home city, Mr. Shealey
will invite some member of his staff.
Although he proposes to give up com
mercial aviation, Mr Shealey will not
do so this fall. He is booked to be at
Pinehurst most of the Fall, under con
tract with the Pinehurst corporation
us an added attraction to the re-sort
there- He will also fly at the Pinehurst
lair. When these two schedules are
finished, Mr. Shealey says, he will fly
no more.
MRS. OBENCHAIN ASKS
AN IMMEDIATE TRIAL
Los Angeles, Calif., Nov. 10. A peti
tion for a writ of mandate to compel
the Superior court to grant an immed
iate trial to Mrs. Madalynne Oben
chain, on an indictment chargeing mur
, der of J. Belton Kennedy, or dismiss
the indictment will be filed in the
State appellate court here, it was an
nounced today by Charles E. Erbstein,
chief counsel for her defense.
In the petition, Mrs. Obenchain, ac
cording to Erbstein. asserts that she
does not seek to escape trial upon a
technicality, and prefers an order for
immediate trial, rather than dismissal
of the indictment. The petition recites
that Mrs. Obenchain is being unlaw
fully held and that the case was con
tinued for trial to November 22, with
the Superior Court "well knowing that
trial will not take place on that date"
because the case of Arthur C. Burch.
; jointly indicted with her, has been set
for trial on that date.
Full transcript of the proceedings in
the case up to November 8 was attach
ed to the petition.

Married persons troubled by in-laws

It might also be a good plan to
take the in-laws along.
For "Her Face Value" is essenially

proves conclusively that all young

THE CHARLOTTE NEWS,
BURKE IS HEARD
BY GREAT CROWD
Irish Tenor Favorably Com
pared by Audience With
John McCormack.
An audience that nearly filled the
big city auditorium and that showed
marked enthusiasm greeted Tom Burke,
the noted Irish tenor, at his first con
cert appearance in Charlotte, Wednes
day night. Mr. Burke came as the sec
ond artist of the several that are being
brought to the city this Winter by the
Oasis Temple and Shrine patrol
Mr. Burke, who is often compared as
a tenor of the Irish type with his great
fellow countryman, John McCormick
(fellow countryman because he is of
Irish extraction and temperament
though born in England, a Patriotic
Britisher of the devoted kind, he says)
is an artist to his finger tips. His pro
grain last night was received with
warm approval by the audience that
was a compliment to ,the singer by its
size as well as by its apparent sincere
approval of him. Many critical listen
ers compared the voice of Mr. Burke
with that of McCormick (it seemed in
evitable to compare him with McCor
mick) and made the comparison favor
Mr. Burke. If comparisons are odious,
however, it may be stated in perfect
candor that Mr. Burke is a great sing
er and sang his way into the hearts of
all his hearers last evening. His voice
is clear, resonant and powerful, with
that peculiar timber that seems to be
long to sons of Erin.
For his opening number he made se
lections from Ciampi, Gluck and Han-
dael, the numbers from the last-mentioned
author being "Where Ere You
Walk" and "Sound An Alarm". His
second group of songs included 'Les
Fontaine des Gazellese". by St Leger;
"En Passant" by Hue; "Aubade", by La
lo; "Myrto", by Delibes; his third
group contained "Little Batiste", a
French-Canadian song by O'Hara; "The
Garland", by John Ireland, and "The
Great Awakening", by Kramer.
Following the above-mentioned num
bers the Shrine band, with Director
Robert L. Keesler wielding the baton,
rendered a number. Afterward Mr.
Burke sang in one group of songs.
"Lullabv". bv Hamilton Harty: "The
Kerry Dance", bv J. B. Molloy: "Bold
Unbiddable Child", by Stanford: "She
is Far From the Land", and "All Erin
is Calling Mavourneen", by O'Hara.
DANCE FOLLOWS CONCERT
Following the conclusion of the con
cert, members of the Arab Patrol push
ed all the assembly chairs from the cen
tral area of the auditorium first floor
back under the balconies and arranged
them in order that all spectators could
stay and see the dance given by the
Patrol and Band. Uniformed members
of the Shrine put the dancing .floor in
shape in a jiffy. Soon couples fox-trotted
into the rectangle as the Shrine band
struck up a favorite air. This was
followed by a, slow waltz that drew
many other dancers. Mr. Burke, the
singer, came from his dressing room
and joined in the dance.
During an interlude, Herbert Brock
man of the Arab Patrol went on the
stage, demanded the spotlight and con-
ducted a drawing "contest to determine
. , . i 3
who should receive two handsome and
a.rtistic fans given by the Arab Patrol
for two lady guests of the evening. Lit
tle Miss Peggy Prim, six years old held
the numbers in a be-ribboned basket
and Mr. Burke drew the numers calling
them out to the audience. Those hold
inff the successful numbers and winning
the fans were Mrs. H. D. Murray and
Mrs. Walter Scott.
Little Miss Elizabeth Williams and
Master James Combs, students of Prof.
R. L. Fox, dancing, next did an artistic
Dutch in quaint Dutch costume, the
dancing arena being cleared for tha at.
Next Henry Benoit of the Shrir.e Pa
trol stepped into the spotlight and sung
"I am Always Blowing Bubbles", to the
afcompaniment of the Shrine band, and
the climax of the unique program came
down in the shape of 503 pink. red.
yellow and blue toy balloons, which had
been held in a monster United States
flag hirrh up against the roof '"f the
auditorium. A string had bsen slipped
from its mooring on th-3 stage releas
ing the vari-colored sho.ver of balloors,
which guests rescued and took home as
souvenirs. The audits'. iuvn was beau
tifully decorated in Shrine omblems,
one of the features being the regula

The conference program was also read
by the conference secretary and some
changes made before adopting it for
the session of the conference.
PROGRESS SHOWN
A feature of the morning session was
the reading of the president's annual
report by Dr. Andrews. Some interest
ing facts were disclosed in the report,
and the chief executive of the confer
ence reported that he had visited all of
the charges in the conference except
three during the year. He reported
some changes in pastoral charges in
the early part of the year. One new
church was reported built at Draper,
with a membership of about 70. New
churches are being erected at Thomas
ville and Ashboro, and new parsonages
have been built and purchased during
the year. The names of several church
es were read and placed on the honor
roll, having paid both the annual and
general conference budgets and their
pastor's salary in full. The report also
showed that from 51 reports from pas
tors throughout the State there has

report, Dr. Andrews asserted that there
are abundant resources and possibilities
for growth and development in the de
nomination. Among the problems men
tioned by Dr. Andrews were the need of
more money in the prosecution of the
work, the raising of the finances for
th annual and general conference
budgets, the building of the new college
at High Point, and the need of more
pastors in the conference. The presi
dent made several recommendations to
the conference for action, which includ
ed some changes in several charges,
creating new pastoral charges.

MAIL RECEPTACLES
A hearty response has been made to
the campaign instituted by the Char
lotte postoffice officials for mail recep
tacles in front of every home for the
convenience of the carrier.
One carrier reports that 266 people
on his route have complied with the re
quest and have provided receptacle
for the mail. These are very conveni
ent for the carriers as, otherwise if
their ring at the door-bell was not tn
swered, they would be oblidgcd to car
ry all first class mail back to the post
office and deliver it on some other1 trip.
With the erection of mail receptacles
of some description, the postman is not
oblidged to ring but simply places the
mail in the box, or otluv receptacle
that has been provided for that pur
pose.and continues his way.
J. H. Weddington, postmaster, and
C F. Robinson, sune-'ntenaont of the
mails, have expressed their apprecia
tion for the observance of their request
by so many of the r?it;zens of fhe city,
and they ask that these Mho have not
already furnished a mail . receptacle of
some description for the convenience
of their postman do so at once.
A nation wide campaign was recent
ly instituted for the purpose of secur
ing these receptacles for th-3 convienco

country that have been the first to ob
serve the resuest of their postmasters.

OFFICERS MAKE
LIFE MISERABLE
For Conie Johnson, African
Dispenser of Stuff Vol
stead Annihilated.
'Ef it taint de night ones, it's de
daylight ones?" explained Conie John
son. African booze dispenser, in speak
ing of almost daily searches of her
house by officers. Conie was fined
$100 and costs in the police court
Tbjursday morning for having liquor
in her possession.
According to Conie, her life has been
a hard one. Only innate courage in
her nature has enabled her to battle
with a cold and cruel world. Surround
ed on all sides by neighbors who have
a grudge against her, she declared
that things were getting hot for her.
Almost every day some neighbor tips
off the policeman that the brand of
booze in Gome's cellar is a. gwu
and forthwith the squad hies itself to
the premises. Wednesday night s
search revealed the intoxicants. Not
enough was discovered, however, to
convict her of dealing in the stuff.
This daily contact with officers has
mads Conie a bold and brazen individ
ual. She seems to believe that indif
ference will throw the law hounds off
the track, and living up to her' belief,
not long ago she deliberately walked
up Tryon street with a whole bucket
of corn liquor in her hand. As luck
ssed Officer Pax-
ton. That enforcer or me law a.stveu
her what it was she had in the duck
et, to which Conie replied:
"flVi ios' stuff"
Then she set the bucket on the side
walk, took off her hat and began to
fan herself in the most apathetic way.
Officer Paxton. however, got a whiff
of the booze, and Conie later got a
whiff of the law. She stated in court
that she had secured the liquor to mix
with peaches, which might have
smoothed matters over had not Solici
tor Guthrie discovered that peaches
moro nut nf Rpasnn at that time.
It is no doubt that Conie would
have been given a jail sentence Thurs
iiav mnrnin? had not Judee Laurence
Jones believed that a certain Martin
Douglas, who rooms at Conie s house,
was the director of operations about
tne place.
HE GOT THE SACK,
ALSO FOUR MONTHS
"Keep this sack for me until I get
back," whispered a mysterious charac
ter called "Big Boy" to J. B. Bran
non, of West Fifth street, Wednesday
night. And Brannon might have done
so had not the officers relieved hirn of
his burden. ,
"I do not know what was in that
big sack," he explained in the police
court Thursday morning.
"Well, I will give you four months
on the roads to think it out," returned
Judge Laurence Jones.
But the officers had satisfied their
curiosity and found three gallons . of
corn whiskey in the sack. In addition
to this there were four empty pint bot
tles and a funnel found near the sack
in Brannon's Ixruse. Brannon testified
that the empty bottles belonged to his
small son, who used them to play with
out in the barn. His explanation ex
ploded, however, when the solicitor un
corked the bottles and permitted a po
tent odor of moonshine to flood the
courtroom.
"Is your little boy looking for play
mates?" asked the solicitor.
Brannon maintained his assertion
that a man of heavy bulk called "Big
Boy" had left the liquor for him to
keep. He let it leak out-however, that
"Big Boy" had offered to soil him the
mysterious sack and its contents for
$30.
Judge Jones told Brannon that in
formation about "Big Boy" might help
to soften his sentence, and advised
him to dig up some real facts about
the matter.
STATESVILLE HOMES
ENTERED AND ROBBED
Statesville, Nov. 10. The homes of
Alex Cooper on Faurth street and Clar
ence Steele on Mulberry street were
entered and robbed last night. The
thieves entered while trie occupants of
the houses were asleep. A watch and
about $6 in money was taken from Mr.
Cooper's home and a watch and a
small amount of money was taken
from Mr. Steele's home. The watch
taken from the home of Mr. Steele be
longed to his father-in-law, Rev. James
Wilson. Rains later in the night de
stroyed the tracks of the thieves and
the police are finding it difficult to find
any trace of them.
