We have a 'hot point" subject we desire our many readers to take into consideration after reading the adver tisement of the Oxford Ice Company on the 4th page. The electric iron is the most useful household appliance as yet invented. Mr. J. M. Joyner, son ol Hon. J. Y.

Bank of Creed moor in a statement published in an other column, which shows this well managed bank continues to increase in yolume of business, and has won the confidence of the people. We overlooked in our last issue the list of delegates elected to the State Republican convention : W. N. Critcher, C. J. Roberts, W. T. Farabow, Dr. G. T. Sikes, R. S. Jenkins, J. T. Cozart. To district convention: R. C. Hackney, A. Baker. R. H. Rogers, W. L. Peace, I. C. Lyon and S. L. Wilson. Mr. Frank W Hancock, who attend ed the Grand Council meeting of the Royal Arcanum last week at Charlotte, and who has held the position of Grand Regent of the State for several years, had the distinguished honor of being unanimously elected for two years representative to the Supreme Council Let us take an interest in our town. Clean it up, and fill up the mud holes, and keep the town clean. Let's co operate with Civic League in their ef forts along the line of cleaning up.

The debate between the High School boys of Oxford and Durham schools held in the Graded School auditorium Saturday night was won by Durham, The question was ably debated bv John Stedman, Jr., and Sheperd Booth for Oxford, and on the part of Durham Preston Epps and Marion Fowler. The judges, consisting of Judge Graham, Capt. W. A. Devin and Mayor Dennis G. Brummitt, decided in favor of the Durham boys. ' : We ask you to read the statement of the Bank of Stovall in another part of this paper. The friends of Miss Fannie Wyatt will regret to learn that she is quite sick at the home of Mr. L. B. Turner. Mrs W. T. Millis received a telegram Monday morning from Rockingham county announcing the sudden death of her brother. We were in error in our last issue in stating that the Graded School will close on May 12th, instead of Friday night the 17th. Don't forget the date. If you are a seeker after the best and most comfortable shoe for sum mer wear buy the Beacon sold bv the Long Co. and advertised on the fourth page. Accessions to the Churches. As a result of the revival which came to a close last Friday night there were seventy-five accessions to the Oxford churches on confession of faith last Sunday. The revival was far-reaching in its effects, over one hundred and fifty accepting Christ, a number joining churches outside of Oxford, bringing the total number of accessions up to one hundred or more. The ministers are receiving daily the pledge cards handed out at the meetings, and this signifies that others desire to unite with the churches. A Choir of Ten Thousand. Colonel Reece, of the Greensboro Record, is ever on the alert for a good one. Here is one of his best pick-ups: An estimate of Roosevelt was given yesterday by one of the brainiest men in the Republican party in North Caro lina. Said he: "Roosevelt's soul soared heavenward; he met Peter and asked him how many soprano voices he had. The reply was perhaps 500 How many contralto? About the same. How many tenors; several hundred said Peter. Roosevelt said he wanted a choir of ten thousand voices and Peter said he thought he could get up that number. But a thought struck Peter. 'Don't you want some bass singers?' he asked Roosevelt. 'No,' said the Migiity One;T'il sing bass my self,' whereupon Peter threw up the job." This well illustrates the egotism of Roosevelt.

One of the most serious of all evils in Oxford is vagrancy. For rmr of vagrancy grows an untold number of evils. There are men, and women, too, in this community, without visible means of support and withoor .o y oc cupation. They can sell en- :g i blind tiger liquor to keep the wolf from the door, and they devote their s;ar-i time to devilment in one form or another. It is hard to detect them i ?hcir un lawful acts, but once caught Mayor Brummitt will see to it that thesft able bodied men serve a sentence on the public roads, and suitable work of a public nature can be found for the wo men. Put a stop to vagrancy, for there is nothing truer than that Satan finds some mischief still for idle hands to do, Good Thing for Granville. Why cannot we get in shape for a Granville county creamery? There's only one obstacle in the way, and that is the lack of cows to support the in dustry. Let's begin now to provide the necessary milch cows. Each fami ly should keep two or three, and if they did they would soon find a market for all their cream and that, too at lucrative figures. Will Conduet Revival Services. Dr. Alexander P. Tyer will leave for Henderson Wednesday where he will hold revival services. Dr. Tyre is a logical and forceful speaker, and he never fails to engage and hold the attention of the vast audiences it has been his pleasure to address. The good people of Oxford will miss his cordial greetings even for a few days, but we feel that his labors in Hender son will be a blessing to that com munity. No One Against Maj. Stedman Mr. A. Wayland Cooke, chairman of the Democratic Congressional Execu tive Committee of the 5th District, has appointed Judge R. H. Sykes of Dur ham as temporary chairman of the convention, which meets in Greens boro, May 29th. Besides nominating a candidate for Congress, the convention will select an elector on the presidential ticket and also select district delegates to the national convent ion. So far there seems no candidate against the present incumbent for Congress, Major Stedman, and he will probably be nominated by acclamation. In the matter of elector for this district no one has yet been mentioned.though there wiil be no dearth of excellent material when the time arrives for naming one. Neither has there been any active canvass so far for places as delegates to the Baltimore convention.but among the names that have been suggested by different democrats are C. H. Hast ings, of Winston; J. Crawford Biggs and R. H. Sykes, of Durham; A. A. Hicks, of Granville;John R. Stewart.of Greens boro; E. S. Parker, of Graham; N. E. Pepper and W. V. King, of Danbury; C. II, Hanes, of Mt. Airy. To Get and to Hold. The science of getting business is reduced to a degree of certainty by thousands of people who are in the various branches of commerce and trade. That a personal and business integrity is a prime factor none will deny. That the employes needed for the proper conduct of business should be competent, courteous and loyal is another assertion that cannot be gainsaid. Upon one's employes de pend to a great extent the success or failure of one's business. Loyalty is to be desired along with competency, probably more than all in employes. With these perrequisites at hand there need be little fear of success, only that it is necessary to let the people know where they can find the desired goods with commercial integrity behind them Telling them in the most effectual manner is a matter which has long been studied by publists employed by business people to assertain the best manner in which to reach the purchas ing public. There are at least three classes of the purchasing public the average business man desires to reach the bead of the family who pays the bills; the women, too. are in terested in everything offered for sale, whether it touches the home directly or indirectly, and the children in these latter days are the arbiters in many things. A medium which reaches the three classes is the most effectual means at the disposal of the merchant; it. is as much a necessity as the build ing in which to house his business or the capital to purchase the goods. 1 he Chief Causes of Fire. State Insurance Inspector W. A. Scott, who was in Oxford last month, has made his annual report after a tour of the State. The main object of Mr. Scott is to educate the people to greater safety and to bring about a re duction of fires. Speaking of the im pressions gained by a statewide in spection Mr. Scott states that the mainia for emptying ashes in wooden receptacles and imperfect wireing of buildings are the chief causes of fire. The careless hanging of drop lights.too, is one of the greatest menaces he has found. In some towns he found mer chants were careless in allowing rub bish of a highly combustible nature to accumulate in cellars and in back lots. In bis rounds Mr. Scott came upon one fellow who operates a general store. He asked to inspect the build ing and did so after showing his power to do so by law. In the base ment of the store sitting around highly infiamable material the inspector found a bucket sitting upside down. Turn ing it over Mr. Scott found a lighted candle beneath, burned half down. The owner of the building could make no explanation of this unusual and certainly puspicious circumstances, though evidently heeded the sugges tion o! the inspector that in the event he had a fre there would likely be something doing. Mr. Scott reports that the people generally aid rather than antagonize the w;rk he is doing and that in very few instances he found any strenuous opposition to his suggestions.
