Let all come out to (hearNthis distinguished speaker. A. A. HICKS, Chairman. MRS. BRUMMITT APPEALS ' THE BOOKS ARE NOW OPEN FOR REGISTRATION A WEEK OF BIG THINGS The reason is avoui ir-o reasons at all. Land was last asseed in 1915 and its valuation re mained stationary on the books for fi-e vears. All the while it was in cr'eaMns in value, but the increase did not find its way to the books, personaltv was relisted every year, and all increases in personal proper ty found their way to the books for each fef the years 1916, 1917, 1918, I'll 9 and finally in 1920- If any one has cause for complaint on account of this it is tne owner in personal pro Crowded With Events Worthwhile In Oxford. , Next Tuesday is the opening day of Granville Fair, which is always an event not only in Oxford " out in Granville county. The farmers from all sections of the county and many from surrounding counties will meet here on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and swap experiences in farming and tell about the big crops they have made. Brass Band and Amusements. A high-class brass band will head the line of march to the fair grounds perty and not the owner, of land, for each forenoon. The Bright Light v-hile land held a fixed position on he boeks for four years, personalty increased each year. The only fair and honest way in which to make a comparison, if such is desired, is to make it for the years 1015 and 1920. the years in which land was revalued. We find that in! tle5? vears Jand increased from $421,000,000 to $1,981,000,000, and personalty $210, 000,000 to $813,T 000. 000- This was about four and one-half times for land and four tim es for personalty. When it is re membered that this year an exemp tion of $300 was allowed instead of $25, it will be seen that during the five year period the two forms of property have preserved their rela tive proportions on the tax-books. It will be interesting also to make the comparison for other forms of property for the five years. Cotton mills increased from $26,000,000 to 1205,000,000 or nearly eight times, corporation excess from $7,000,000 to $20,000,000 or nearly six times, power companies from $10,000,000 to $56,000,006 or nearly six times, and railroads from $125,000,000 to $250,000,000 or double. It is ob jected that land and other forms of property have increased more than railroads- It is true that railroads were not increased so much as the other forms of property, but that can be readily understood when it is remembered that because of the heavy strain to which they were sub jected during the war, the lack of equipment which the low rates have prevented their obtaining, railroads are in much worse condition than any other kind of property in the state- It should be remembered that rail roads pay a reasonable mileage tax and that all corporations pay a fran chise tax. As a consequence it will be found that they pay considerably more taxes in proportion to the actual value of property owned than the land owner does. Any study of this subject, and any examination of the fisnires will reveal to any unpre judiced mind the fairness and the honesty of the Democratic program for taxation and social betterment m North Carolina. UNIVERSITY OPENS WITH ROSTER 1273 Of These 1,043 Are In Academic Studies; Others Are Specializing. Chapel Hill, Sept- 29 The Uni versity of North Carolina has opened ;s 126th session with the largest number of students in its history. The first four days of registration showed a total of 1,273 students, which is larger than ever before at this time. Last vear the total for the entire winter session was 1,406, Shows is a strong, clean amusement feature, and the exhibits are expected to be the largest in years. Stores Will Close Wednesday.

MRS. BICKETT APPEALS TO WOMEN TO REGISTER Duty to Accept Responsibility of the Ballot and Aid in Work of Gov ernment. (Raleigh Special.) Declaring that woman has not come into the kingdom of politics to wrest from man the reins of power, but rather to be his help-meet, Mrs. Thomas Walter Bickett, wife of the governor, has ussued an appeal to the women . of the -state to register and "participate in the November el ections. The appeal is all the more interesting because Mrs. Bickett was not of the ranks of those who mili tantly espoused the right to vote. She has always felt that voting was a responsibility rather than a right, and .now that the responsibility has been' put on the shoulders of the wo men of America, she believes it their i duty to accept it in good faith and to begin aright by participating in the elections at their first opportunity. TO WOMEN WORKERS! Members of the Woman's Club Fel low Workers: As the time draws near for our county fair, I'm wondering if we are; giving that occasion due considera-j tioa. This is a Fair of much morej than ordinary interest to us- We have heard it said that if this Fair is not a success we will probably nev er have another. It is not for me to argue the merits -of a county fair. But it is for me to appeal to you fel low club members, and to all the wo men of the town and county not only to make this Fair no less successful that those in the past, but to com bine efforts and make it the best we've ever had. This is a Woman's Fair; It is being managed by one of our own members. One who has ser ved our club, and the women of our county for years, with the best of her interest and energy. Are we going to allow Mrs. Cape hart to be disappointed in our en tries? While "Mue ribbons" are for only a few, if every one of our hundred and more members will make some exhibit, nearly a shelf will be full, which would otherwise be empty. There is another way we can help make the Fair a success by furnish ing floats in addition to those enter ed by the business firms. Organizations such as clubs, class es in the schools, Boys and Girls Scouts, etc.. might add greatly to the interest of the occasion by decorating cars, trucks, and pony carts. The Health Department of the Wo man's Club has found it impossible to procure nurses from the State Health Department to assist in the Better Baby contest. Only recently has the plan been given up with a great deal of disappointment. The Health DeDartment will have a rest-room in the Fair Hall, to which THE FRECKLE FACED mothers will be iavited to bring their tired little folks and the older chil dren may be weighed and measured Other departments of the Club, the Household Economics, and the Gar-den-and-Forestry department are working on interesting programs to be carried out at the Fair- But members, let me, urge you a gain, not to depend on the heads of departments to represent us but let us every one feel it an individual re sponsibility and contribute in :some may to make the Fair of 1920, worth while. MRS- D, G. BRUMMITT, President of Womans' Club. Registrars Will Be At Polling Places All Day For Four Saturdays, Be ginning On Next Saturday Books However, Are Now Open For En rolling. Registration books for ajl quali fied voters opened in Granville coun ty yesterday morning, along with those in all other sections of the State. The books will remain open until and including Saturday, Octo ber 23. On each of the four Satur days within that period of time the registrars will be at-the regular poll ing places for the purpose of regis tering those who may call. The Elections this year will be unique and different from any others ever cast in North Carolina, in that the women will vote. A ruling by Attorney General Manning is that the women will not of necessity have to give their ages when registering. All that is necessary is that they take the oath to support the Censtitution, and declare hemselves to be "above" 21 years of age. it is especially desired that all persons qualified will take advantage of the opportunity to register, so that they may participate in the election in November. This is especially true of the women, and a special effort is to be made to get them to qualify. J. B. Powell, chairman of the Coun ty Board of Elections, said toflay that J. BRYAN GRIMES WILL SPEAK AT THE FAIR HERE NEXT WEDNESDAY J. Bryan Grimes, Secretary of State, will speak at the Gran ville County Fair on Wednes- day next. Mr. Grimes is a fine speaker, a big farmer and he will prob ably have something interest ing to say on the tobacco ques- . tion. IMPRESSIVE SERVICE FOR THE GREEKS HELD LAST SUNDAY The Holy Rite Beautifully Explained By Dr. Horsfield. Last Sunday the celebration of the Holy Eucharist according to the Greek Rite,, was solemnized in St. Stephen's Church. The liturgy of St. Chrysostom was used. There aic uiuci uuurgms useu lor uus Holy Rite, but St. Chrysostoms is the one ordinarily used. The service was intoned throughout? evento the rendering of the Gospel for the Day, as no instrumental music is used in j buying public the Eastern Church, the home of the j best ecclsiastical music in the Chris tian world. The Rev. Papa Pavlos, in charge of the Greek Church in Richmond, Va., was the Celebrant, vested in the beautiful apparel used in the Divine Office. Several Greeks from Durham was present with the Greeks of Oxford, but only those who THE SLOWBUT GRADUAL RE TURN TO NORMAL CONDITIONS There Is Nothing In the Present or Prospective Situation That Would Justify a Calamity Howl. (Charlotte Observer) During the past week the public mind was more largely concerned with affairs economic than political. It was during the week that the first decided manifestations of an indus trial and commercial return to pre war conditions were developed. "Things had been coming down" in premonitory fashion for several months, but not in manner to pro duce any very general effects, though to the business world it operates ,as a warning as distinct as the crack ing of the ice with the coming of a thaw. Merchants and manufactur ers were given ample time in which to. adjust their affairs against the coming of the slump and the first process was curtailment of orders to coincide with the curtailment by the That resulted in a had nrfinared themselves in Sacram ental Confession received the Sacred c at tha P.hnrntl stPtiS. which woman will register and vote exact-1 in a Greek Church would have been ly as men, except that it will not be necessary for them to declare their age beyond showing that they are 21 years old. They are not required at this election to have paid poll tax." Registrars and judges of election in all of the precincts of the county were announced recently by Mr. Powell. before the entrance of the Holy Doors. The consecrated Bread was dipped into the " consecrated wine, Intinction, as it is called. After wards a platter of Broken Bread, Blessed, but not Consecrated, was passed through the congregation for each one to take a bit, in token of at tendance at the Service, without par- tirinntinn. A Memorial rinow or general easement in business activi ties and brought about what is com monly called a season of "dull tim es." Then came the long strides in the back-to-normal movement. An automobile manufacturer of general fame made a decision over-night, as it were, that the prices for his product should be restored to the figures prevailing before the war. This was followed a day or so after by announcement of a cut in. prices of cotton goods by a controlling New England factor. Swiftly ensued the news of price-cutting by large houses in Chicago and other cities, and be fore the week was ended there 'was a sloughing off in prices of .. com modities of various kinds.

It is estimated that not more than a quarter of a million of pounds of the weed has been sold on the market pince the first day of the season. The Public Ledger does not know what the general average is for all sold, but we venture the assertion that the Oxford market leads all the markets in the State as to general avcraco.

"Look here," he said, "let me show you something." as he began to turn the leaves. Strangei to relate that the guaranteed goods in his store, especially the gold and silver articles, were twenty per cent lower than those listed in the cata logue.

Brooks 'has notified all city and county superintendents that the state board will not' recognize teachers who sign up with one school system and then break their coa tracts. There is no law against breaking these contracts, but the rul ing of the board is that no salary for that particular teacher will be pro vided from the. general educational funds of the state. Should a teacher begin work for one city or one county, and break that contract to go to another city or county, the school committee to which she goes will have to provide the ray fcr the full term, for the state will rot prodive money for tea chers breaking their contrrts. Dr. Brooks also calls attention to another ruling which must 1 e observ ed in the ; preparation of budgets: That all terchers of recognized pro ficiency in the system, having no high school or college .credits, who have had experience of at least ten years may bo -ated in the highest grade of the class in which he or she is certified, provided such teachers has had continued service in the same school for fire years.
