Judge A. B. Anderson, in the feder

iolation of the war-time federal

said that the strike was not only il
legal but that under the circum

Unless the union leaders choose
to defy the court they can move on

Strikers Must Comply.
The court's order was so worded
j that failure to cancel the strike call
i
or any affirmative word or action
tending to "aid and abet" the con
tinuance of the strike would make
them violators of the injunction and
in contempt of court.

Mr. J. E. Jackson, superintendent

fail to send them to school. In all
such cases he prefers to settle out
of court and smother as far as pos
sible all publicity, but there have
been a. few. cases wherein it was nec

A flagrant case of neglect engag

previously warned the parents to
comply with the law, and failing to
do so, called upon them the second

Mr. F. F. Lyon, the populra drug

Mr. Lyon has leased the store on

The business houses on College

ONE YEAR AGO IN OXFORD.
The People Were Praying and the
v Bells Were Ringing.
Monday, November 11, 1918, was
a memorable day in the history of
the world it marked the signing of
the armistice and the liberation of
Europe and the rest of the world
irom tne fear of German domina
tion and misrule.
On that glad day the bells of heav
en sounded the glad tidings in our
midst, and everybody prayed with
one accord.
lime passes rapidly, and today
there are people among us who are
unmindful that there was a world
war and that our brave sons were
in the conflict.
The churches in our midst are
closed as tight as a wedge today;
the reverence for the soldier boy has
faded away, and the prayers are
badly mixed with "grab and gain"
all over the universe.
Nov. 11th last year surpassed any
thing in the memory of man herea
bouts. Is it all dead? Has the rec
ollection of that day been lost? Does
it carry no more significance than
the usual anniversary of any other
holiday? We trust not. ,
In accordance with a law passed
by the last legislature, Governor
Bickett has issued a proclamation
setting apart Tuesday, November 11,
as a legal holiday. He suggests that
the best way to celebrate the day is
to make substantial contributions to
every movement in the State to the
honor of the men living and dead
who wrought so well to save Amer
ican institutions, and civilization
and the world.

A Patent That Threatens to' Revolu

Industry
Clyde B. White, youthful inven
tor of Rome, N. Y. whose device
known as the electric spark vapori
zer, not only eliminates spark plugs
but also the carburetor in automo

Brass works. He recently sold his
patent rights to a Buffalo concern,
receiving $35,000 u cash, $20,000
in stock in another industry con
trolled by the Buffalo concern, and
a royalty said to be $500 a month.
His invention is looked' upon as a
possible revolutionizer of the auto

six-cylinder standard engine 63 mil

The fact that Governor Coolidge

EVERY SUNDAY ISA '
DAY OF JOY AT THE OX-
ORD METHODIST CHURCH
jThe Large Congregation Is Growing j

! The Oxford Methodists ' look for-
ward to the coming of Sunday with
I as keen interest as does a child anti-
I rtt rrt 4- 4-1 . J a t '
viatc mo auveni oi unristmas.
There is a reason for the spiritual
awakening namely, the pastor lov
es his people and the people love
their pastor, and there is always
something doing in the way of a
love feast.
Recently Dr.' Craven tied paper
sacks on the hands of the members
and told them to wear the sacks out
shaking hands with each other until
they wore them out, and it so hap
pens that a stranger never enters or
leaves the church without the lay
ing on ot hands.
Last Sunday was a fair example
of the church's activities. Four la
dies from the Radcliff Lyceum Bu
reau, who filled au engagement' in
Oxford Saturday evening, were
present and charmed the large con
gregation with sacred songs. Dr.
Craven, who has a splendid deliv
ery and punctuates his remarks so
that a child can understand, was at
his , best, and the skillful ' touch of
Mrs. Street at the organ, also added
a charm to the seiTice.
During the Sunday, school hour,
Miss Lola Long, of Greensboro, who
is .the guest of her friend, Miss Het
tie Lyon, assembled the Baraca-Phi-
lathea classes and addressed them
at some length on timely topics.
At the evening hour, the service
incident to lowering the flag, was in
spiring. Major Thad G. Stem was
the speaker of the evening. He re
minded the young men who were
present that the stars on the banner
represented them while they were a-
way; that the prayers of the church I
were with them, and now that the
stars are placed in the archives of
the church they should be present
in person at the services of the
church.
Dr. Craven saw his old friend
Major Gattis, of Hillsboro, in the
audience and called upon him for a
few remarks. Learned in law, the
District Solicitor charmed the audi

Some One Entered Henry Hand's
Store and the Blood Hounds
Tracked Ward Gregory To His
Den.
Sunday night some one robbed
Henry Hand's store and residence
near the corner of Sycamore and
Granville streets. Blood hounds
brought from Raleigh were put upon
the track of the robber.
After winding around the streets
in the vicinity of the store, th j dogs
passed through a house and on to
the house in which Ward Gregory,
the son of Peter Gregory, colored
was sleeping, and strange to relate,
the dogs crawled into the bed with
him.
While the officers believe that
bloodhounds never tell a lie, , they

PERSON'S NEW COURT. HOUSE
What Has Become Of Our Court
House Committee.
One month ago the county board
of commissioners appointed a com
mittee to investigate and devise
some plan for the enlargement of;
the Granville court house. It is in
teresting to note that while the com
mittee is pondering the question.
Person county has decided to erect
a modern court house. The Rox
boroCourier says:
"For something like two years the
Board of County Commissioners
have been considering the question
of building a county court house in
keeping with this good county, and
on yesterday plans were submitted
by the architect, Mr. Harry Borton
of Greensboro, and adopted. T1
building will cost approximately
$150,000, and will be modern in ev
ery respect, in fact the building will
compare most favorably with the
best. The Commissioners wisely
decided to locate the new building
on Main street, but considerr"
farther back than the present build-j
ing, and it will contain roo: r
every one connected with county af
fairs, with a court room seating a
bout.400, and the jail on the top
floor after the order of the court
house in Durham. If our present
Board, consisting of Messrs. H. J.
Whitt, chairman; R. D. Bailey and
Daniel Long do nothing else they
will have built for themselves a
mounment which the good people of
this county will always . approve.
They have shown a progressive spir
it which is in keeping with the
march of progress noted all over
this county."

NUMBER 90
EVERYBODY REMEMBERS THE
THREE LANGHORN SISTERS
Born In Virginia, One of Them Is
Running For Parliament.
It was our luck several years ago
while walking along Franklin St.,
ivicnmond, to see a very handsome
young lady strolling along with a
couple of young mem. She was so
very pretty we asked our companion,
a newspaper man, who she was.
"That's one of the three famous
Longhorn sisters," replied the news
paper man."
That was the first and the last
time we saw the Virginia beauty,
but we are willing to admit that she
still haunts our dreams. Some
years after she "crossed our path",
she married Jack Astor, of New
York, who denounced America and
moved to England and was created
a lord, and died a few weeks ago.
The city of Plymouth, England,
and the country generally is great
ly interested and amused .by the
campaign for election to Parliament
on the Lloyd-George ticket, now be-
Hng waged by Lady Astor. She is a
great favorite 1 in the town of Ply
mouth owing to her many benefac
tions and her welfare work during
her ten years' residence there, and
is going about making street speech
es and asking people for votes for
her whenever she meets them. The
other day she met her opponent, the'
liberal candidate, Isaac Foot, and
stopped him to say: "You are ' far
too progressive a man to -be identi
fied with the Ancient Mariner As
quith party. You are a good man,
but you are going in the wrong di
rection." We never thought that
our Virginia beauty would ever say
a thing like that!
When a heckler cried out: "Cine
mas come from your country" Lady
Astor promptly replied. "But not
from where I was born Virginia."
When another heckler ' mentioned
her possession of many millions
Lady Astor said: "I have probably
far more money than I ought to
have but I'll say this: If some of
my Socialist opponents had what I
have they would not be here asking
for your votes."
NORTH CAROLINA BOYS IN

Upon the heavy bands are en
