April Party I do not know the origin of April t "001, or why folks are bigger fools n April than the other eleven months. Anyway, the biggest and best April ■’ool party was given at the home of 1 Vl rs. S. H. Hoyle in Wakefield, Mes- ! lames Huyle and Joyner being hos- j e. sc.s of the occasion. The invited quests were members of the Wake-! . •id Band, with three members of ’ gers Band—Mr. and Mrs. E. D. ;neh, Mr. and Mrs. W. A. J'oyner, r. and Mrs. 1). 1). Chamblee, Mr. id Mrs. Harry Rogers and Mrs. ed Richardson being present. First on the program was the ini it ion. each as their turn came, be s dressed in a robe, and surround by the others, had to locate a listle which was attached to the ie. Since this was blown by d if ■nt persons at different times, it is not easy to locate. Afterwards we were placed on the it of honor. del' an electric bull) ts concealed; but no one was a bet • judge than the one occupying the iir as to the duration of time he uld be the honored guest, l’he stunt of passing odd objects den under a sheet was the height fun, as it is not easy to identify jects unless we have our eyes to discern. Next, the guests were invited into the diningroom for a regular chicken feed. For this the men were decked with ladies hats which long ago had served their purpose, as was thought, but now served another purpose. The servings consisted of sparkling water, seasonably salted, and saucers of chick feed. On returning to the sit ting room it was discovered that some error had played a noticeable part in the candy: since candy should be made of sugar and not of cotton flour dough. ’J'he contest proved a brain test in the true sense, as we had no use for our brains for so long. The salad course with hot waffles was indeed refreshing, as we had been led to believe we would get something appetizing for so long.

Hatchery To Close ’pho Zebulon Mutual hatchery has had a very successful season. Mr. O. L). Massey, who has operated the hatchery, has given the most careful attention to the business and has had the best hatches since the plant was installed three seasons ago. Eggs for hatching will be received only two more weeks —next Monday, April 18th., and Monday, the 25th. Those wishing to have chicks to raise for summer use, should set them now. The weather is warmer, yet not too warm to raise chicks most successful ly. The market indications are that prices will continue good. So fill a . trey for one of these last two hatch ings. SPECIAL ANNOUN(’EMENT Let no one think that only those living in Zebulon can enter the Yard | and Garden Contest. The contest is ! open to all readers of the Record who are interested.

It is being sponsored by organizations both inside and out side of town, and was begun for the purpose of making our whole commu n 'y more beautiful.

He was tried by jury and found not guil ty. It was proven on trial that the time price charged was above the cash price more than 10 per cent and it was on this ground that he was cleared, since this made the mort gage illegul. Nona Winburn was tried for for nication and adultery and found guil ty; given 90 days in jail. Haywood Pace was found guilty of assault; found guilty, but dis charged on payment of the costs. John Nihozinoki was found guilty of trying to sell a half pint of whis key to a merchant on main street, le was taxed with the cost. This young niun was raised in an orphanage, has no relatives, and no job. It is hoped some farmer will give him work for the summer. Because of need, it is said he tried the liquor business to get something to eat. When the case of Paul Brantley wsa called he failed to answer. He had four charges against him: assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill; living in fornication and adultery and using store for immoral purposes; driving a car while drunk and trans porting liquor; assault by holding a boy and “sicking" a police dog on him and also threatening to shoot the boy. Those who went on his bond were left holding the “sack.” Owen Ferrell was found guilty of diunkenoss and disorderly conduct; discharged upon payment of the costs. Cigaret Parade | j The usual monotony of a spring morning in town was broken Wecim ;- day by the sound of an electric calli ope, or praphephone with loud speak er, coming down main street. This calvacade of three cars down the j street, turned and stopped in front of I John Bunn’s place of business. Men, boys and a few women came from every direction and soon 75 or more were gathered about the parading paraphernalia. All this music, all the excitement an ( f gathering crowd were caused by an advertisement of a new cigaret tobacco made by the Brown Williams Co. As the crowd stared and listened, one farmer was heard to remark; | “The robbers and profiteers have come Ito town. Look at all those fellows in ! overalls and rags. They are the ones that were fobbed by the cigaret | folks to make them rich while the . poor farmers starve.” And, we walked on, thinking of the remark, and say ing to ourself: “Yes, and they are getting ready to do the same thing ! yet again.” ANNOUNCEMENT The Music and Literature Depart ment of the Woman’s Club will meet at the club house next Tuesday p. m. Mrs. E. M. Hall, formerly of Zebulon will have charge of the program of • music. She will he assisted by Ral eigh singers.
