The idea of consolidation has had i: substantial growth in the county within the past year. People are thinking about it and discussing it everywhere. With the proper sup port of the leaders of each com Lmnity, it will be only a short time until a practical solution of the dif ficulties of rural schools will be found. The ungraded school has Played an important part in devel f'inng the interest in education. Its ".ork. however, is about finished and the next stage is the consolidated ?raded school for the country chil dren. It is perfectly natural that a new idea, an enlarged plan for education should meet with opposition. It is o: o of the characteristics of the hu inaiunind to dislike a change, to fear si; innovation. Ninety-nine people f uf nf every hundred will raise ob :!ftions to the transportation of children to larger schools when the !r'a is first , presented to them. i-'y imagine all sorts of difficulties! ; dangers. It is the experience, hov,ever, of practically every dis fncr trying this plan, that the dif-iMiltir-s and dangers have been lar viy imaginary.

AN IMPORTANT DISCUSSION The 1920 Family Budget the Cause of Much Worry. . First comes the rent 32 per cent; Your groceries are 20; Your clothing bill is small, but still It's 6 per cent that's plenty. Insurance 4, cigars 2 more, Amusements come to 7; A tire, 15; 12, gasoline; That's 98 Great Heavens! It cost you 2 to have the flu, And that all went for dope; You owe the nurse, and what worse, The doc, too, lives in hope. The butcher looks upon his books And forthwith mails a dun; The drygoods man your bill doth scan. And so on, one by one. Your wages spent the last red .cent, In debt, and there you are. According to a dispatch, Special Agent Handy, of the Department of Justice, stationed at Raleigh, whose duty is to supervise activities against profiteering and combinations to fix prices throughout the State, an nounces, that cases are pending Vhich will bring the workings of the government along this line nearer home. There are a number of indictments pending in some of the leading North Carolina cities, the cases to come up before spring sessions of Federal courts. Laws are still on statute books against hoarding, profiteering and the use of food grains for the manu facture of beverages. In many Stat es heavy, fines have been imposed, ranging from $100 to $2,500, while prison sentences have been imposed in many instances. The law applies not only to profiteering in foodstuffs but in wearing apparel also. .

Dr. Edgar W- Knight has accept ed the invitation. to be present to deliver the address to the graduat ing class pf Oxford High School on the night of June 1st. Dr. Knight is one of the leading young men in the educational work of the State and he has a vision that is worth while. Oxford is very for innate in eettine such a live, well equipped man to appear at the close of the school term. There are sixteen in the graduat ing class, the largest class since the addition of the eleventh grade. Class exercises will be held on the night of the last day of May. Further announcements will be made later. JUDGE STACY OUT FOR SUPREME COURT BtJii Land Values Are Steadily Increasing. When farm plow lands increase in . I value per acre by one-fifth in one IS j v-oor on1 hv nno-half in fnnr vanri J VUl U11 KJ XXX X J IX X J VUlklf something has occurred that may be ealled a "phenomenon." These in creases in value are indicated by the results of investigations by the Bureau of Crop Estimates- In March 1916, plow lands in the United States had the average value of $58.39; in the same month in 1917 the average was $62.17; in 1918 it was $68.38; in 1919, $74.31; and at the saine time of the year in 1920, $90.01, building values in all years not be ing included in the average. Mr. A. H. Powell, of the Gran ville Real Estate and Trust Com pany, one of the wisest and safest real estate men that we know, has always maintained that farm land in Granville county is cheap . at $100 the acre. Dr. Frank Fincher, Of Houston, Tex as. Preaching To Large Crowds Daily. The meeting at the Presbyterian Church has been gaining momentum with each days service. On account of the shortness ot Dr. Finchers to have three services a day. This was somewhat of an experiment in the history of evangelistic services in Oxford, but the largo attendance rt every ser vice has abundantly justified the trial, in this case r.t least The business houses, offices, etc., of Oxford agreed to close for one hour in the morning, for three days of this week, and this has rendered possible a large attendance of men at the morning services. . Dr. Fin cher has on more than one occasion expressed his appreciation of the courtesy of the firms in 'dosing, j The afternoon services has been dis tinctly for children, and the number which has been present har: shown the hold which Mr. Matthews, Dr. Fincher's co-worker and choir-director has in this short time obtained upon the children. On Thursday afternoon, more than a hundred chil dren were taken in automobiles to Stova.ll, for a service, and a'jjrent ex perience was had by all who went not only the children bnt the grown ups as well. The meeting has, so far, been characterized by a deep spiritual power. Dr. Fincher in a quiet and convincing way preaches the redeem ing love of God, and salvation thro ugh the blood of Christ The very simplicity of the message is its pow er, and the Holy Spirit seems , to be manifestly present in all his services. The first time a call was made for profession of faith in Christ, more than fifty responded. There will be no services on Sat urday night, but on Sunday three services have been arranged for in the morning at eleven, in the evening at eight, and in the after noon a service of men will be held at the picture show at three thirty. This afternoon service will be a great meeting and all the men of the town are urged to te present. . POPULATION STATISTICS ' SHOW GAIN FOR DECADE E. P. Davis; C. E. Loyd and Rus sell C- Cash.

Cook, 22-year-old young white man from Oxford, was arrest ed and jailed Monday afternoon by Captain Warren following the pre sentation for payment of the Com- morpinl ATotlnnal Rant W PonV r,f UJ " t,i. no rm, x e I should be interested in it uucuiv lui $ i o. j. ixc euuuiaeiuBui ui public in general. In the first place all must realize that supply and de-' mand regulate the prices of articles. The public must also realize that at present there is a demand for the very highest priced articles of every kind and few people take less than the most costly. In a certain line of clothing in an American city, five years ago the records show that 15 per-cent of the goods sold was what they called fancy articles and the re mainder included the average grad es.' Today the same firm has a re cord of 95 per cent fancy goods on its sales. This is the cause of high prices to a great extent. An overall club should have as its purpose the effort to economize and at the same time the tendency to make people stop and consider the cost of all goods. It is certainly within the spirit of the purpose if not in the plan that all old clothes that men have been throwing aside too soon be used now and that they be used with the idea of preventing the purchase of so much high class goods. When this plan is worked out there will be results that will be worth while. Such a spirit will be established that a man will not mind going on the streets or to his work clad in old clothes that he otherwise would discard. There is without doubt a place in Oxford for an organization pledged to economy in all lines and especially along the lines of clothing. To make popular such a habit of thrift will mean much to any community. In view of the fact that quite a few men now feel that the present plan of the Overall Club is not the best one that may be worked out the p'resent Chairman of. that Club will be open to suggestions' regarding a Mass Meeting as soon as possible to perfect an organization that will ac complish something worth while. In other words,, it seems that there is a very rear demand for some wise step. Let this matter be taken up in If the Over then every man in Oxford ought to be in it. If it is not, none should be in it but in one that will profit all. If the movement that is sweeping America is worth anything Oxford should profit by it and every person HELD FIR FORGERY j a Meeting and settled all Club is the thing, which, it is alleged, was forged. According to information furnish ed to the police the young man fered to Mr. E. B. Crow, of the Com mercial Bank, a check for payment, made out to Mr. M. C. McCaskey, and signed by T. R. Frazier Cook, it is claimed, posed as McCaskey. When the bank officials refused to cash the check, Cook suggested that he could get Mr. J. H. Pool to endorse for him. He returned from the Pool store with the alleged endorsement of Mr. Pool on the paper. The cash ier still refused to honor the check and decided to see if Mr Pool had endorsed for the Oxford man. It was found that Pool had not endors ed for Cook and at the police station Cook confessed that he had written the endorsement himself. There is no reason why a woman's club for economy in Dress should not j be popular. A few moves will set OI j .I X 1 - JJ XI XI 1 5 J me style aim ineii uie worn, is uuiie. G. B. PHILLIPS.

The program is intersperced' with music and everybody is invited to be present. The Adam and Eve Club. The immediate effect of the or ganization of Overall Clubs in the South as a means of bringing down the price of clothing was an increase in the price of overalls from $2 to $6 a pair. Any one could have foretold it. The only way to get ahead of the profiteers is to organ ize Adam and Eve Clubs. Phila delphia Record. Molasses Sold at Auction. Yesterday at the court house door in Smithfield two barrels of , molass es -one. of 55 gallons and the . other 56 gallons were sold to the highest bidder bringing 85 cents a gallon. These two barrels were taken at a bloekade still in Wilders -township several days ago. The Constitution Is Very Plain the Subject. Advocates of woman suffrage who have been studying the question of whether women will be required to pay poll tax when they become vot ers say they will not have to pay and that the matter can be easily under stood by reading the constitution. The argument is somewhat as fol lows: "Under the constitution of 1868 there was a poll tax required 'never to exceed $2 and to be applied to education and the support of the poor. The poll tax was authorized to be levied, h'owever, only 'on every male inhabitant of the State over 21 and under 50 years of age.' There . was no authority to levy it ori males under 21 nor over 50, nor on fe males of any age- There is. no auth ority therefore given to any officer to collect poll tax on any one except 'males between 21 and 50,' constitu tion' of N. C. Art. V Sees. 1 and 2. The XIX Amendment when ratified will not affect this matter of poll tax which is purely a State regula tion, restricted by the State consti tution. , . "The provisions as to poll tax were in the constitution of 1868 in which there is no reqeirement that it shall be paid as a prerequisite to voting. The article in the constitution -t on Suffrage is Art VI., (a different ar ticle from the one authorizing the poll tax) and in the amendment to Sec. 4, Art. VI.. known as the Grand father Clause, there is a provision that any one proposing to vote must have paid on the first of May pre viously 'his poll tax for the previous year, as prescribed by Art. V., Sec. 1 of the Constitution.' It will thus be seen that prepayment of the poll tax is not required of every voter' but only "as prescribed byConstitu tion Art. V-, Sec. 1." Turning to that article, it will be seen that what is prescribed is that males between 21 and 50, shall pay the poll tax. There is no authority to collect poll tax from 'any one else nor to require any one else to pay poll tax. As to Suffrage (Art. VI., Sec. 1-provides simply that male persons who are citizens or naturalized and over 21 shall be entitled to vote. The word "male" in this section will be strick en out by the ratification "of the XIX Amendment." i
