A CROWD EXPECTED FRIDAY Lincolnton is expecting a big crowd here next Friday at 2. p. m. for the cornorstone laying of Lincoln county's new temple of justice, which is now in course of construction.

CHOSE TO SERVE THE PEOPLE The death of Mr. Walter Thompson, the head of the children's home is a sad blow to that institution and toj the state, for he was one of God's no blemen. Discussing his departure the Hickory Record says: "It was not the Record's pleasure to know Walter Thompson, who died at Winston-Salem yesterday follow ing a long illness, but like thousands of others in the state it had known and appreciated his good work as head of the Children's home. Mr. Thompson took charge of this insti tution at a time when it needed a nerstone laying ceremonies, composed of Dr. I. R. Self, Messrs. T. C. Aber nethy and Herbert Miller, are shap ing up the various matters for the big occasion in the life of Lincoln coun ty, and expect a great crowd here on Friday for the exercises. As already i stated in these columns, the ceremon ies incident to the cornerstone laying will be in charge of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina, and Grand Master J. Bailey Oven, of Henderson, and other Grand Lodge officials are ex pected to be present and take part.

He was well qualified for the, position. There can be no nobler calling, than that of training orphan children.. Mr. Thompson could have .made a name for himself in many other fields, but he chose to serve the people in the capacity of guiding young chil dren who need more than a shelter, clothes and food. That he and the institution he presided over have been a proissung ant, guiuu,6 for the youngsters committed toj them is a matter of pride. The state will miss this splendid leader. These high life parties like the Ar- buckle affair seem to be getting re sults. Too much liquor and conversa tion, and loafing around is playing the dickens in high life. Too often liquor and high life stuff ends with coron er's jury on the job. JUDGE BOND TIGHTENS UP IN DIVORCE RULING p.loio-h Rent. 23. Judge W. M. yers when he held that in divorce summons the officers who serves the process must inform the summoned party that he has 20 days in which to answer the complaint. That means of course, that the summons must em body this provision in accordance with the colsilidated statutes, with Judge Bond construes to make mandatory the 20 days notice. The Judge rteciareu mis rumig uui-i- kfK, ita(if(il will ease in lug a nvwj Wake court. His purpose, he said, was to make sure that no divorce may be invalidated by defective summons. He declared it possible that divorces and remarriages inxolving property rights to the children by each marri age are possible, in his opinion, by reason of these imperfect Instruments of summons. He admitted that hundreds of such summons had been issued. He doubt less had done as others, but hereafter he will hold to the ruling of today. NEGRO MURDERER IN LINCOLN JAIL!

But one feature ap pears which, while common enough, is and will always be a matter for concern. Immediately following the death of the girl Arbuckle's friends were busy tampering with witness es, bribing them to hide the truth or getting them out of the way. The district attorney stated that one witness who had been summoned was on his way to Chicago "and no I legal means exjat to bring , him back." It would" seem that lack of legal means to compel an absentee witness to report and testify is a serious defect that would call for prompt remedy. Statesville Landmark.
