Miss Long spoke in the Methodist church at the eleven o'clock service and in the Reformed church at the evening service, Baracas and Philatheas of the various churches were present in addition to the reg ular church members. Miss Long spoke in a simple, direct manner and her message went to the hearts of her hearers. She is a thor oughly consecrated christian and is active in Christian Endeavor and Ba-raca-Philathea work. She came to Hickory in the interest of the latter. The Baraca and Philathea classes of the various churches were urged by Miss Long to send a large delegation to the state convention which meets in Greensboro beginning May 9. Many noted speakers are expected to be on hand and Greensboro is planning to make this the greatest convention of its kind ever held. One of the great est attractions will be a patriotic ral ly on Sunday afternoon May 11, in the municipal building. Miss Long spoke of the need for more trained workers. In Baraca and Philathea classes persons are trained to take up Christian work along the lines they are best fitted for. In this giant organization there is work for all and especially now as never before are these workers need ed. Trained workers or organized bands are the pastors' right hand and stand back of the church and indeed may be called the backbone of the church. From a handful of men gath ered together thirty-nine years ago by Marshal Ney Hudson, the wonder ful organization now embraces mil lions all over the entire world. Special music added much to the enjoyment of the service. While in the city Miss Long was the guest of Mrs. H. L. Busliorig and Miss Mabel Hight. T Ii.

"A tragic farce" is the way they describe this picture with Frank Keenan as a wealthy iron manufac turer whose troubles only begin when his son Harvey graduates from col lege. You see Harvey was a moso model young man, but when you jom a fraternity at college you are iu duty bound to stand by your fellow members. And so how on earth was young Deering to tell his father that the bills for cigarettes and autos and liquors, etc., and etc., were not his. He just couldn't do it, until matters came to a head and the youthfui scion was arrested for murder and the old man began to sag under the bur den of his son s crimes, and thei along came no, not Ruth but sorrn, one who straightened things out a bit. That's all. EXPECTED HOME SOON CONSIDERED TODAY By the Associated Press. Mineral Wells, Texas, April 14.

She must also issue immediately to the allies and associated govern ments $20,000,000,000 in interest bear ing bonds. The interest on the bonds until 192G will be either two or three per cent and after that date will be five per cent, according to in formation gained today. Germany also must obligate herself to pay other amounts for damage done appropriate to her means ,to be determined by a mixed commission of the allied and associated governments and of Germang, whih shall assess the amount before May 1, 1921. The bonds will be payable in in stallments during a period of 15 years. They probably will be kept in the control of a central commission of the allied and associated govern ments, .so that they shall not be marked in a way to depress their value. Messrs. A. S.

Another version of the acident to Miss Lila Ekard, who was run down j by an automobile at Icard on Sunday afternoon, April 6, was furnished the Eiecord today by Mr. J. D.

He explained that he and Mrs. Knox and Mr. and Mrs. Giles and seven jhijdren were returning from Morganton, where they had gone to see Mrs. Giles' mother, who was sick, when the affair occurred. At Icard they encountered two other Machines, ' one' driven- by Ivey Berry, which was on most of the road, Mr. j Knox said, forcing him to strike the bank with the right front wheel. In the excitement Mr. Giles knock ed the driver's hand from the steer ing wheel, Mr. Knox said, causing him almost to lose control of the ma chine. It struck Miss Ekard, throw ing her back on the rear fender, and cutting her under-lip badly and bruising her hip. The front axle struck Mr. Dock Pugh, the front wheel running over him. His clothes were torn in several places. Mr.' Knox has been to see Miss Ekard, whose fifth rib also was broken. These are the facts given the Record in writing by Mr. Knox. The infor mation also was furnished that Mr Pugh was "drilling" about 20 young people in the various formations. The Record is interested only in the facts, and it gives Mr. Knox's ver sion in the interest of fair play. SOLD EVERYTHING Here is a little assistance rendered a friend.
