COVE HIGH SCHOOL
Trustees Elect Four Ol the |
Teachers Tor the Fall
Term. j
WAREHOUSE TALK,
E. J. Davis & Sons, of Martins
ville, Open Market at Fairmont j
This Week, and at Walnut
Cove Later In the Season
—Think Prices Will
Be (iood.
Walnut Coye, July 20.—At a
recent meeting of the high school
trustees only four of the teachers
for the next term were elected.
For the primary grades, Miss An
na Reid, of Pilot Mountain,
intermediate grades, Miss Mayme
William, of Fairview, assistant i
high school teacher, Miss Pearl I
Seagraves, of Holly Springs,
teacher of music, Miss Minnie
Joyce, of Stoneville. No princi-i
pal has yet been named but the j
committee have under considera-i
tion applications from some of |
the best men in the State and
will elect one of these within a
few days. The school will prob
ably open about Oct. 10.
An enjoyable and profitable re
freshment party was tendered at
the New warehouse Wednesday
evening under the auspices of
the ladies of the M. E. church
for the purpose of making im
provements in the interior of the
parsonage. A large crowd was
present and a neat little sum
was realized from the sale of ice
cream, sherbert and other delica
cies.
Mr. J. C. Hutcherson left last
week with his family for Tabor
where he will conduct a ware
house until about Oct 1 when he
will return here to assume charge
of the New warehouse.
The bond election to be held
Aug. 10 when a $2,000 bond issue
will be carried or rejected is the
subject of very little interest. It
would be difficult to predict eith
er the success or failure of the
proposition at this time although
a great many voters have already
registered. Many taxpayers
will be unable to vote owing to
the fact that they failed to pay
their poll taxes.
Messrs. E. J. Davis & Sons, of
Martinsville, Va., who will con
duct the warehouse this year
were in town a short while Thurs
day enroute to Fairmont where
they will open a warehouse this
week. These gentlemen who
are well versed in the tobacco
business are confident that the
prices will start off well and while
the high prices of 1013 can hard
ly be expected they are sure the
prices will be up to last year's
average.
Many from here attended ser
vices at Rosebud Christian church
three miles west of town Sunday.
The services were the opening
of a protracted meeting which
will continue throughout the
week,
Mesrs. Jno. G. Fulton, Carl
Joyce, J. R. Snyder, Watson
Joyce and C. E. Davis made a
business trip to Charlotte Friday.
The trip was made in Mr. Joyce's
Overland and remarkable to state
not a N breakdown, puncture or
any of the evils of auto travel
was experienced during the 232
miles traversed. With the ex
ception of a two mile stretch from
Fulp to Dennis a perfect sand
clay road covers the entire dis
tance from this point to Char
lotte via Mocksville, Statesville
and Mooreviile thru one the
prettiest agricultural sections of
the State.
Messrs. A. W. Davis, S. H.
Stewart, W. G. Dodson, Dr. C.

AT PiEDMONT SPRINGS
Many Distinguished Guests Now
Summering At the Popular
Resort.
Piedmont Springs, N. C., July ;
21.—Congressman Chas. M. Sted
man, of the Fifth North Carolina i
district, does not believe that
; there will be an extra session of •
j congress soon to consider the j
(ierman problem, but thinks 1
that President Wilson will be
table to handle the situation with
the honor and dignity and jus-:
I tice due the American people.
Major Stedman is here to spend
. a week or two at this popular
I resort, where there are at pre
sent more than 100 guests at the
hotel, among them many of the
most prominent people of the'
I State. Maj. Stedman feels that
1 God Almighty created Woodrow >
I Wilson for the crisis confront- i
ing Americans, and that the
!President's life will be spared to,
1 lead this great nation safely I
land with prestige unimpaired
I through the perils that beset it.
i Major Stedman says the policy
jof England in seizing and hold
' ing American commerce has
| caused serious loss to the tobac-
Ico and cotton farmers of North
: Carolina. He is confident that
jat the next session of Congress
measures will be enacted which
will compel the British to re
spe*t American rights upon the
high seas. Major Stedman is
in excellent health and spirits

cal condition of his life:

ALL RECORDS BROKEN
1 The Season at Piedmont
Springs the Best Yet.
The present season at Pied
mont Springs is the best yet
•xpereinced by the present
management. Not only are the
week-end crowds larger than can
be handled, but the average
crowd, those who remain from
one to two or more weeks, is the
largest ever known. There are
125 regular guests now staying
at the hotel. Last Saturday
night and Sunday from 250 to
300 guests were accommodated,
while 50 or more were turned
away because of the manage
ments inability to handle them.
Among the pleasant visitors
at Piedmont Springs are Mr.
IC. G. Wright and family
land Capt. and Mrs. Bernard
of Greensboro. Mr. Wright is
i a lawyer of (ireensboro, and
la capitalist. He is a man of
great public spirit, and the one
! above all others that made Guil
ford county the banner good
.' roads county of the State. Capt.
»' Bernard is Superintendent of
E, Maintenance of Ways of the
■; Southern Railway, and is a most
'! agreeable gentleman. There are
r no better people in the State
, than these.
