MISS SHARP IS BADLY
HURT IN AUTO WRECK
Sunday Afternoon Accident Near
Winston-Salem Came Near Having
Fatal Results.
Winston-Salem, May 1. Three oc
cupants of a high-power motor car
I narrowly escaped death Sunday af
ternoon near Hope enurcn, cn tne
Clemmons road west of this city. To
day Miss Ethel Sharp, a your.g so
cial favorite of this city, lies in the
City hospital seriously injured while
her small sister, Miss Katherinr. al
so has injuries not so grave. W. P.
Southern, of Stokesdale, uncle of tin
Misses Sharp, is also in the hospital,
though his recovery is expected. Miss
Katherine Sharp, who was more for
tunate than her elder sister, was able
to leave the hospital today.
A heavy fog of dust blinded Mr.
Southern, who was driving the ear,
as he attempted to pass another cur
on the way home from Clemmons,
causing him to lose control of his
car which left the road at a curve and
brushed a tree, knocking the bark off.
The car then made another turn, the
left wheels leaving the ground and
the machine. tilting against a tree in
the church yard. Miss Ethel Sharp,
whose engagement was announced
recently, was pinioned between the
bed of the car and the wheel, the
bone in tbe right leg being so badly
crushed that amputation was neces
sary. The victims of the accident were
brought to the city a short time lat
er in an ambulance and at once
taken to the City hospital for treat
ment. (Miss Ethel Sharpe, who waB so
seriously injured in tbe accident, was
the fiance of Mr. William Crocker
Albright, of Concord, and the an
nouncement of the encasement was
made in the Charlotte Observer of
Sunday. Mr. Albright left for Win-ston-Salem
Sunday afternoon, im
mediately after hearing of the acci
dent.)

tilde toward such a disease was such
that I needed no further warning. The
trouble is, he continued, we already
have disease but we will not go to
the Physician for help. Another strik
ing illustration was that of a traveler
to the man who, in feeling about his
camp for some matches, touched tbe
cold rattlers of a "rattlesnake. He
needed no warning -to jerk his hand
away, Mr. Abernethy- declared. And
this should be our attitude toward sin
and if a man has religion it will be
his attitude.
This man had faith, but it iwas a
weak faith, Mr. Abernethy explained
in drawing another lesson. "Lord, if
you can," he quoted to indicate the

him. Another lesson was that the man
though having a weak' faith, knew
where to go. He knew to go where
faith is electrified. He knew to go
where faith is quickened. He knew to
go where faith grows" and becomes
more powerful. .
Mr. Abernethy illustrated this point
by picturing 'a fast train, with its
great engine and equipment. This
train, he pointed out, does not have

Important gains in the French coun
ter offensive at Verdun were announc
ed by the war office today.
By persistently hammering at the
German line on the north slope . of
Dead Man's Hill on April 29th and
30th, the French troops obtained pos
session of German trenches along a
front of about three-fifths of a mile .
and a depth of from 300 to 600 yards,
the statement asserts.
In s strong attack last night south- -east
of Fort Douaumont a first line
German trench, more than 500 yards
in length, was captured by the Frendh.
Although a German offensive move,
ment seems to be impending along the
northern end of the Russian front, in
the Dvinst region, the current state
ments record no decisive engagement'
in this sector.
' Clashes between opposing forees
continue to be of daily occurrence
