Our MoUo-Granville County, Her
ISSUED SEMI-WEEKLY,
Memoral Services.
Immediately after the distressing
news of the death of Governor Aycock
reached Oxford last Friday morning
we noticed on our streets and in our
business houses small groups of men
with sail faces lamenting the sudden
demise of the State's most beloved son.
The clergymen, numbers of the bar,
educators, merchants, and men in
pverv walk of life felt that some public
expression was necessuiy iu uispcn
tiU di.-Mim that overhung the com
munity, and later in day word was
pnt broadcast that a memorial meet
ing would be held in the assembly hall
of' the Public School building, to which
t.rvhmlv was invited to attend. A
large number of our representative
citizens, including ladies and children,
assembled at 8 o'clock. Mr. W. B.
Baliou, chairman of the School Board,
was master of ceremonies. A number
of school children, guided by Mrs.
John B Booth, sang ' Face to Face"
veiy effectively, afterRev.S. K. Phillips
led in prayer.
Ail the addresses were of necessity
brief. Dr. Alexander P. Tver spoke of
the great responsibility that rested
on the shoulders of Governor Aycock;
his loyalty to the obligations he as
sumed: his abiding faith, and said that
the great love the State bore for him
was reflected from his character.
Mr. John Webb spoke of the student
days of Govenor Aycock at the Uni
versity of North Carolina; that the
faculty and student-body recognized
in him a sublimity, and that he was
glad to see the fulfillment of the pro
phesy made in the halls of learnirig
and on the campus that Aycock would
some day be Governor of North Caro
lina. In addressing his remarks to the
children Mr. Webb reminded them of
the fact that the beautiful structure
in which we are now assembled was
largely due to the undying efforts ot
North Carolina's educational governor.
General B. S. Royster said that he
knew Governor Aycock before his
great career began, while he was serv
ing the State in a minor capacity; that
he measured up to every trust imposed
upon him; that he had in him the prin
ciple that impel men; a statesman of
high rank, and that there was scarcely
one within the borders of the State
who did not deplore the tragic, yet
noble death of the model citizen, the
one bright star of the Commonwealth.
Mr. W. A. Devin spoke of the pro
found impression that Governor Ay
cock made upon the Supreme Court of
the United States with his efficacious
logic; of the reverence in which he was
held by the legal fraternity; that few
if any had accomplished as much as
he in so short a time, and that it will be
many a day before we will see the
likes of him again
Mayor D. G. Brummitt quoted Gov
ernor Aycock as saying; "You must
treat the negro right when the days
come when he cannot vote, for if you
do not God will not be with us.' This,
the speaker said, was suggestive of
the motives and aims of the lamented
statesman all through life.
Dr. Hays in a few well chosen re
marks said that Governor Aycock as a
boy, and even older, saw visions; that
he was abundantly able in bringing
things to pass; that he was a great
benefactor to the State and to man
kind in genera!, um that his name will
go down in history as the educational
Governor.
Prof. J. F. Webb, superintendent of
Granville County schools, paid a glow
ing tribute to the memory of the de
parted statesman, after which the
meeting came to a close with a song
by the children.
The Funeral.
Special to the Greensboro News

services over the remain of former
Governor Charles Brantly Aycock.
which was held from the First Baptist

'core have so many people gathered
here from all sections of the State;
never before have so many notable
iutn and persons of every walk in life
assembled in Raleigh in numbers as
gathered here to-day for the funeral of
the ex-goyernor.
Hours before the services the hotels
and streets were thronged with North
arolmians, come to add their silent
noute to the dead; come to show their
inve for the State's educational gov
ernor and to bow their heads to this
iJicnd ol man.

Abundant Light and Power.
Superintendent Couch, of the Caro

the current from Buckhorn reached
Oxford Sunday and that the test made
by him proved satisfactory in every
particular. Mr. Couch stated that if
everything moves along with precision
he sees no reason why we will not
have the current in a week or ten
days. This will be hailed with pleasure
by many, and we hope to see the little
municipality expand with this great
achievement.and that her manufactur
ing interests and population will multi
ply. Now that we have this energy
brought to us in abundance let it be
generally known that Oxford is now
in a position to turn many thousand
wheels and employ at- many men
when the proper signal is given. Oh,
that we had a Duke or a Cone to wave
a magic wand over dear old Oxford!
Easter Day in Oxford.
Though the sky was obscured bv
clouds all the churches in Oxford were
well filled on Easter morning. It was a
day of joy and gladness, for it brought
the blessed assurance of a Risen
Christ and the promise of everlasting
life, the fulfillment in the blessed here- !
after of broken hopes and desires and
the reunion of sundered ties.
The services at St Stephen's Epis
copal Church were very impressive
throughout. There floated over the
chancel rail the sweetest strains of
music, the glad Hosannahs. telling the
crucifiction of our Lord, His death and
burial and His ressurrection on the
third day. The flowers in all their
beauty, placed here and there, were
in keeping with the beautiful services.
The musical program was under the
direction of Mrs. John B. Booth, and
Mrs. James C. Horner presided at the
organ with her usual skill and grace.
Dr. A. P. Tyer, of the Methodist
Church, preached a strong sermon at
the morning hour from his pulpit.
While there was no special program of
music the choir always elicits much
praise.
Rev. S. K. Phillips, of the Presby
terian Church, filled his pulpit at the
morning hour, and preached to an ap
preciative congregation. Though Rev.
Phillips has been a resident of Oxford
for only one month he is much laved
by his congregation.
Rev. J. B Weatherspoon.of the Bap
tist Church, preached an able sermon
at the morning hour, exhorting his
congregation to pray for the advance
ment of God's kingdom in the approach
ing revival services to be held in Ox
ford. The choir under the direction
of Miss Mary Webb, the accomplished
organist, was somewhat augmented
and rendered the service anthem,
"Sing, O Heavens," in splendid form.
Miss Ormerod, of Oxford College, sang
in her rich controalto voice "Easter
Dawn."
A union service was held in the
Baptist Church at the evening hour, at
which Dr. Alexander P. Tyer preached
on the opportunities and duty of ser
ving God. The preacher was listened j
to with rapt attention. Rev. S. K.
Phillips, of the Presbyterian Church,
conducted the congregational singing.
Oxford as a Market.
We have looked carefully over the
various lines of merchandize handled
by the merchants of Oxford and we
are constrained to say that the goods
handled by them are of the best qual
ity of material and workmanship, and
that the merchants are not only to be
congratulated on the excellent lines
they carry, but that they do draw and
successfully hold customers within a
radius of many miles is also due to
their credit, and it is a remarkable fact
that only a few, a very few, of the
most fastidious of this section deem it
necessary to place orders with large
department stores abroad for articles
which can be purchased in Oxford at
the price quoted in the large cities.
We are sure that even the very small
percentage of those who are accustom
ed to making purchases elsewhere
would be minimized if our merchants
had the elegant plate-glass windows
and broad floors upon which to display
their goods, a feature of the city which
has not as yet extended to Oxford, and
upon which the city merchants depend
largely for the sale of his wares. With
the completion of the Chamblee build
ing on Main street, with its large glass
front, spacious floors and broad gal
leries Oxford will take on new life in
the matter of window dressing, and it
is said that there are numerous mer
chants in Oxford who would avail
themselves ot the facilities of display
ing their goods to the best advantage.
The Public Ledger would prefer that
every prospective purchaser within a
radious of many mile will be satisfied
with a close inspection of the various
lines of goods on exhibition in Oxford
and not be lured to other marts of
trade by the arc lights of the depart
ment stores abroad. The merchants
appreciate the stand we have taken in
declining to insert in the Public Ledger
advertisements from abroad at double
the home rate when we see that it
would be detremental to them -and to
the whole community by so doing. The
laws of trade demand a hearty co
operation from every one, and with it
Oxford will take on new life.

Delightful Birthday Party.
The home of Mr. and Mrsr Cam H.
Easton Monday presented a joyous
scene with 60 sweet and captivating
littie girl and boys flitting over the
lawn hunting Easter eggs, while on the
afternoon air floated their musical
voices. It was in celebration of little
Charlotte Easton's fifth birthday, one
of Oxford's lovable little girls with curly
head, dimpled hands, trusting eves and
gentle ways. Mrs. Easton along with
tender buds were in the zenith of their
glory, while Charlotte was the orbid
around which the galaxy of happy
children clustered in celebration of her
joyous birthday. The happy event
must have caused Mrs. Easton to say:
"Something sings that is not me,
Something shouts that's my tongue,
Something feels that must be glee,
Come back on the wings of young.
Something bubbles all inside,
Something ripples around,
Like a glad wave far and wide
Or a spring bloom on the ground.
Something titters, laughs and smiles
Something keeps me fairly wild
And the world seems miles and miles,
Just chuck full of sweet little child."
