GIFTS TO CENTRAL
. HIGH SCHOOL
' . \
The Central High School has been
greatly aided by donations to the li
brary. Rev. Otho Jones gave some
seventy-five volums and a three year
file of Independent magazins. This
was ^ great help to the high school
students in their work. Just before
the Christmas holidays Mr. Lloyd
Brown gave us a set of the "Harvard
Classics,'/ consisting of fifty-one
volums of the very best of material;
We plan to .use these books in par
allel reading courses. We still need
other books for parallel reading
werk in English and history classes.
Probably next week we expect to
have a committee of the high school
to call on the friends of Central
High to help us in a "book drive."
If you have a book or two or a
number of books which you can spare
let us have them and put them to use
among our high school students; If
you do not have a book, but wanti tc
have a part in the drive, give the
committee the. price of a book or
books.
We have a splendid building. We
should put in the very best library
possible. We should not be willing to
stop merely with meeting tl|e State's
requirements, but let us plan to meet
the requirements of students. They
deserve the very best that can be
had. Central

Mr. Wilson, when interviewed by a |
tfoportor, was very indignant at the
search of his business place and
rooms, and stated that he is as much
Opposed to liquor as any citizen oi l
the county;! that he has never had
'any in hjs rooms or restaurant, and |
will not allow the flask toters to
idrink it at hid tables or in his rest
aurant. He expressed himself as be

have been made, and asserted that

give the source of the information
upon which the warrantswas issued.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY OPENS.
RALEIGH PREPARES FOB
INAUGURATION
By M. L. Shipman'
Rkleigh, Jan. 5,?With state de
partment heads whipping their re
commendation's for additional legis
lation into shape and the arrival of
the "advance guard", of_ the . ap
proaching session of the General As
sembly, the capital city is looldflgfte
ward to a big time this winter.
The capital building has been com*- ;
pletely renovated since the regular
session of the General Assembly in
1923 and the work of setting in aider
the legislative halls, committee rooms
and other owrking quarters of the
solons and their little army of em
ployees is well advanced, so that the
preparations will be more nearly
complete in etfery detail than in a
long, long time, when the reprsen
tatives of the "dear pee-pull" as
sembled Wednesday of this week for
a sixty-day sojourn in the state capi
tal. -
The new electric lighting equip
ment, the ventilating system anjt
other improvements for the comfort
and convenience of the members are
all practically completed and the
finishing touches in * cleaning ."and
dusting aer under way. In a ?ord,
the capital is dressed for the occas
ion as it has never been before in
the memory of the present generation
"It is a thing of^beauty and a joy
forevef." ,i
The sub-station postoffice ttyat the
Raleigh postmaster has provided for
the accommodation of the legislature
. the past several sessions will be set
up again in the west wing corrider
between the two legislative halls, and
will be adequately manned during
the session for the convenience of ,
the members. Ita the language of
former Senator Bassett, of Nash, this
has come to be an"urgent necessity"
The Legislature will lose littl#
time in getting started. The election
of Rcpreserit$fve Edgar W. Pharr,
i Mecklenburg, the speakership
seems to be a foregone conclusion
and lie^ will doubtless announce the
House committees immediately after
taking the .cluiir. The Lieutenant
Governor, who is President of the
Senate, has stated that he will be
ready with his committees on tho
very first doy of^the session. Frank
D. Hackett, of Wilkes, and Alex
Lassiter, of Bertte^ will be continued
as principal clerks of the Senate and
House respectively no opposition
having developed to either of them.
The State Constitution provides
that the General Assembly shall con
vene in biennial session on Wednes
day after the first Monday in Jan
uary, which, this year, falls on the
7th day of the month.
On Tuesday following, it is incnm
bcnt upon a committee, composed of
senators and representatives, to can
svass the vote cast for Governor and
other state officers at the last general
election and declare the result in a
joint session of the two branches of
the Assembly. Tuesday, the 13th, will
witness this canvass, and the in-*
migration of the new Governor is
likely to occur on the day following. ?;
TJie inaugural cedemonies of Gov
ernor-elect A. W. McLean will bo
directed by a committee of the House
and Senate and local organizations
The Raleigh Chamber of Commerce
has selected the following committee
to cooperate with the legislative com
mittiee in this auspicious event:
General Albert L. Cox, chairman;
former Judge J. Crawford Biggs;
Dr. E. C. Brooks, president of State
College; Mrs. Josephus Daniels, Paul
B. Hulfish, Frank H. Jeter, and ?
Robert F. Philips.
The usual custom on such oc
casions will be followed. Mr. McLean
will be met by these committees at
the station on the morning of the in
augural and escorted to the Gover
nor's Mansion, where he will be re-.
reived by the outgoing executive, who
will accompany him to the city and- v
itcruiin in which the inaugural cere
monif". are to be held, including the
installation cf the newly elected ??.
staU? officers.
Hollowing this event will be a tench
eon at the Man*;:on, and later a re
ception to which the public will be in
