I sleep fine and am rested and full

John Gilbert Coming;
In Two-Fisted Role
Seen s Fighting Rogue in "Way' for
a Sailor," with Wallace Beery.
At The Richmond Theatre Next
Thursday and Friday.
John Gilbert is starred in "Way
for a Sailor," the new Metro-Gold-wyn-Mayer
talking picture which will
open Thanksgiving at the Richmond
Theatre, with Wallace Beery in a
prominent character part.
This is Gilbert's first picture since
""Rorlomnf nin "'n-nd is rewarded with
particular anticipation because of the
virue roie ne piays as u-amp
steamer sailorman, ready for a fight
or frolic in any port any time. It
is a wide departure from Gilbert's
uniform type of part and packs a
mighty dramatic wallop as well as
gripping romantic interest.
Wallace Beery, whose talkie debut
in "The Big House" was an outstand
ing performance of the season, plays
another "light-heavy" role as the
bo's'n's mate who drinks with Gilbert
one minute and fights with him the
next.
The trio of shipmates is rounded
out by none other than Jim Tully,
hobo-author, whose fist fights with
Gilbert recently occupied expansive
headline space. Tully, having
patched up his troubles with Gilbert,
makes his action debut in' the comedy
characterization. Tully is best known
for his authorship of "Jarnegan,"
"Circus Parade" and "Beggers of
Life."

We were glad to have Rev. Haerne
with us again Sunday night. He has
been seriously sick for a few weeks.
Rev, Hearne preached a wonderful
sermon Sunday night from Deturomy
He brought us out that . we might
be In." How Moses worked to car
ry the children of Isrel over in the
promised land. He said there was
three classed of people that made up
the children of Isrel. A brief out
line: First Class: Were the "Go-back"
crowd, who were always wanting to
turn back, the faithless crowd. There
are some of the "go back" or "back
sliders" crown in our churches today.
Second Class: Were the "Satisfied
Crowd" perfectly satisfied to stay
in the wilderness; didn't want to go
on, didn't want to go back. The
type that see the wrong thing must
y, "Let the other fellow do it, I
am perfectly satisneld -my consci
ence is clear." There are some of
that" crowd in Our churches today.
Third Class: The "Let's go For
ward" crowd who were willinsr for
God j to, guide them to : Canaan land.
They were the crowd who said, "The
God that forgave our sins, saved our
souls, can deliver us" and they went
on, although they were in the minor
ity.
The churches of today would be
better off if the "Go-back" crowd,
and the "satisfied crowd" were out.
It would prosper if all members were
of the "Let's Go" crowd. Rev. Hearne
asked everyone this question:
"Which crowd are you a member of ?"
Do you belong to. the "go-back"
crowd? Do you belong to the "satis
fied crowd?" or Do you belong to the
"Let's go" crowd?" If you do not
belong in the first two classes rthen
what are you doirig to better your
church and make it a more "Let's
go" church?
Let's everyone resolve toNbe mem
bers of the "Let's go" crowd, and
push . God's work forward, and his
kingdom will prosper.

health was very bad," writes Mrs.
C. C. Caraon, 945 Concord St,
Beaumont, Texas. "I suffered
constantly from constipation. I
had headache when I got up in
the morning, and I felt dull and
sluggish. I hardly ate a meal
that my food agreed with me.
Frequently I would have gas on
my stomach, and felt awful.
"I read about Black-Draught,
and I thought' it might help me.
After I had taken it a little while,
I ' felt much better. It relieves
constipation. I keep it on hand '
so when I need a laxative I will
have it. In the three years I.
have been taking it, I have never
found anything as good for con
stipation." . ,

are
Thursday evening, Nov. 6th, Rock
ingham Civitans paired-off with our
City School teachers at a very de
lightful banquet in their honor at
the Methodist Church Annex.
In comparison with the usual semi
monthly .meeting of Civitans with
their greys, brown and blue serges
seen thru a haze of cigar smoke this
meeting was a riot of color with
carnival paper hats, ballons of every
color, and the loveliness of the teach
ers in their evening gowns of every
hue. To each teacher a box of Mer
ricks chocolates was given as a favor.
The club desires to make this an
annual event and judging by the
success of this first banquet the
others will be looked forward to
eagerly by both Teacher and Civitans.
Lawson Osteen, President, called
the meeting to order following a de
lightful menu of turkey, etc., and
gave to the visitors a few brief words
on Civitan, emphasizing the fact
that Civitan stands for "Building of
Good Citizenship" and kindred acti
vities. And that Rockingham Civi
tans are ending their eighth year
with a live and vigorous member
ship. At thiis point Ozmer Henry, Toast
master, welcomed the Teachers to
which Mis Kate Finley responded.
Perrirt Edwards, Civitan song leader
sang "On The Road to Mandalay,"
followed by a little "horse play" on
the parted several Civitans.
The Teachers were given an op
portunity to show their gunnery by
shooting balloons from the wall with
an air rifle. In this Miss Lottie
Burnside came out victorious and
was awarded a genuine cap pistol.
(luests -and Cmtans were rfortu-
nate to hear at this time, Mr. L. M.
Blue, of bcotland County. He has
served his County for ten or twelve
years in the State Senate and has
been a member of the State Board
of Equalization since its organiza
tion. , Mr. .Blue spoke with author
ity on school matters, having traveled
over the greater part of the State
studying the school systems.
In the course of his remarks he
emphasized the fact that Richmond
County should be proud of its School
system as run and operated. Givinjr
figures from the State Board of Edu
cation he stated that Richmond Coun
ty was one of the 12 best organized
school systems in the State from the
standpoint! efficiency and economy.
lhe average daily cost per pupil m
the State beiner 30c. in Richmond
County per pupil being 16c.
And in - reference to the cost of
transportation s of school children he
reported that Richmond Countv stood
'6th, in the State with a ner capita
cost of $8.61, as compared with his
own County of Scotland of $16.00
per capita. In other words 94 Coun
ties in the State it cost more than in
Richmond County.
Continuing he praised the standing
of Richmond County Seniors, who. in
a recent competitive examination
conducted by the School authorities
placed Richmond County ahead of
92 other; Counties of the State. A
comparison of Richmond County in
8th plaeewith Anson in 30th, Moore
in 39thy and Montgomery in 90th
place.
He praised highly the work of
Prof. L. J. Bell, County Superinten
dent of Schools and how high he
stood in the estimation of the School
authorities throughout the State.
And that thru the office of the State
Superintendent of Schools and the
Board of Equalization it has re
marked that confidence was well plac
ed in Mr. Bell.
The Senator further said that the
plan of Richmond County of combin
ing the County- Superintendent with
the City School Superintendent un
der one head is rapidly being recog
nized as. the most efficient and eco
nomical form of administering these
offices, - .And. that the . Commission
appointed thru Gov. Gardner during
the last (Legislature to study ;the
school systems is recommending this
plan to the next Legislature for all
the Counties of the State.
Following Mr Blue's remarks every
body sang, "Civitan, My Civitan"
and adjourned. D.
