THE ZEBULON RECORD, ZEBULON, NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, AUGUST TWENTIETH, 1937.
DEATHS
IN MEMORY OF GRAHAM
NORRIS BAKER
On Sunday afternoon, August 8,
little Graham Norris Baker, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Troy B. Baker was
killed in a car wreck near Poplar
Springs. He was rushed to the
doctor but died before reaching
medical attention.
God had a place in Heaven, so
He called this little one to be at
home with Him. He was just 1
year, 4 months, and 20 days old, a
rose that budded on earth to bloom
in Heaven. But God knows best. He
gave and He hath taken away.
Graham Norris was laid to rest
in the cemetery at Social Plains
beneath a mound of beautiful flow
ers. May God bless and comfort
those who are grieved by his go
ing, and may they some day meet
him where there will be no pain
nor death.
A precious one from us it gone,
A loving voice is stilled.
A place is vacant in our home,
That never can be filled.
—An Aunt.
APPRECIATION EXPRESSED

M. Jones, the head of our family,
caused us to receive many expres
sions of love and sympathy and

RECORD APPRECIATIONS
Last week, a colored man, a
stranger, came in the Record office
and said he had been wanting to
take some good newspaper, so left
his money and name. Here is the
address: Jas. W. Stone, Elizabeth
City, N. C. Then Tuesday of this
week, Bayard Chamblee of Ashe
ville, came in and paid a year’s sub
scription. A sample copy of the
Record was sent to an old boyhood
friend and school mate sometime
ago. Today he sends a dollar, tell
ing us to send the paper to him as
long as the dollor will pay for it. It
goes for a year to Hardie Colvard,
Robbinsville, N. C. We sometime
wonder if the local newspaper is
somewhat like a prophet, not
without honor save in its own coun
try.

WENDELL TONIGHT
“Sky High”, the thrilling three
act comedy drama, using local tal
ent as members of its cast will be
presented at the Wendell High
School Auditorium Thursday and
Friday, August 26 and 27. at 8:'l5.
The play is being sponsored by the
local order of the Girl Scouts. The
proceeds are to be used to start a
fund for a cabin.
A very able cast has been select
ed and the director, Miss Mary El
len Eichelberger, feels that it will
be one of her best productions. The
members of the cast have been
working each evening to make
“Sky High” a super show.
In addition to the play proper
there are many dance choruses and
featured numbers. There will be
music and dancing specialties be
tween acts.
SEEN AND HEARD
YOU DON’T KNOW IT
We have been wondering how it
feels to be struck by lightning, so
it was very interesting to hear
Mr. Wrenn down in Murraytown
tell of how he felt when he was
struck last year. He was painting
his house, which had been newly
covered with a metal roof, and had
just started to climb down from his
platform when the bolt came and
knocked him some distance, tearing
his ear so badly that nine stitches
were required to hold it in place
and otherwise bruising him. The
same bolt hit a small son of Mr.
Whenn’s, blistering his shoulder
and he was thrown to the ground.
Mrs. Wrenn thought both were
dead when she found them lying
in the yard. An oak tree was also
damaged but, like the human vic
tims, is still living. Mr. Wrenn
said he did not know that he had
been hit; that he did not see the
lightning, hut did hear what sound
ed like shattering an immense
plate glass window on a pavement.
We have read that if one sees
lightning he need not fear it; that
when it strikes one never knows
it. The experience related seems to
bear out the statement quoted.
LARGEST CCC ENROLLMENT
T. L. Grier, Supervisor of CCC
selection for N. C., says he expects
the quarterly enrollment next Oc
tober will be the largest yet,
probably over 1200. Opportunities
for enrollment in the Corps will be
made known to prospective appli
cants well in advance of the open
ing date, October 1.
