WINECOFF RESIDENTS ARE STIRRED TO ACTION NOW Tlu-eat That High School May Be Abol ished Brings Them in Meeting Mon day Night. A meeting of the AA'ineeoff Community, Club will be held on Monday night at“ 8 p. m. to discuss the matter of co-operat ing with the Board of Education in re gard to securing a better High School in that community. Special music will be given by local talent and a number of speakers have been secured for tile occasion. The reason for the agitation iu regard to raising the standard of the school at this time is that it has recently been learned by school authorities that unless c the school is improved, it is probable that all grades above the seventh will be elim inated altogether. AA’ineeoff School has been one of the leading high schools in the county for ''years and it is felt by persons in the community that if it were abolished, it would do a great deal of harm to that particular section of the county. Resi dents there state that they would prefer to maintain their own school than they would to send students to Kannapolis or Concord. Father and Son Ptay mi Salisbury Team Raleigh News anti Observer. Salisbury Colonials who come to Raleigh today for a two-game .series with the local Capitals of the Piedmont league team bring with them a team which is probably the only class B team in organized baseball containing a father and a son in its line-up.

[ in AND ABOUT THE CITY "1 WAR WILL BE DECLARED LATE FRIDAY AFTERNOON Three Hundred Boys of Concord Will Stage Miniature Battle Outside of the City. Three hundred or more boys are look ing forward to Friday night as an event in their lives. | J. AA’. Denny, physical director of the Y, is putting on at that time a real battle which is to begin Friday eve ning and which will continue-on through Saturday morning. A place will be selected near Concord as a suitable site for the activities of the warriors and opposing encampments will be thrown up on opposing hillocks. During the night only a limited amount of warfare will be allowed. A certain number of scouts and patroling parties will be permitted to leave their respec tive camps and venture forth into "no man's laud." These parties will in dulge in scrimishes and endeavor to lo dulge in skirmishes and endeavor to lo tions. AA’ith the break of day. however, all will be changed. The main encounter of the day is to be staged at 6 o’clock and it is not probable that any great amount of sleep will bo had in either of the hostile encampments after four. The crack of dawn will see each a bee-hive of activity in preparation of the Crucial contest. / The scoring to decide on the victorious side will be by means of points. The capture of a private will count a limited number of points. A corporal will be more and the capture of a general will number well into the hundreds of points. KILL BEYOND HARTSELL MILL BEING WIDENED Highway AY ill Be .Made Wide Enough to Accommodate Pedestrians on Side walks. State and County Highway forces are now Jointly engaged in widening the fill just beyond the Hartsell Mill on the Charlotte road with a view to making a sidewalk for pedestrians in that part of the city. The fill lias long been a dangerous one I from the fact that a number of workers ' in the Hartsell Mill live in the group of houses which are on the Charlotte side of the fill and it is necessary for them to traverse the fill in going to and from work. A number of accidents have resulted from this fact since the automobile traffic is very heavy, the Concord-Charlotte road being one of the most traveled highways, •it the state. The fill will be made sufficiently wide so as to'give space for the sidewalk in excess of the 30 feet contained in the highway. Big Cast in “Lincoln” Film. The east of characters for "Abraham Lincoln,” the First National picture at rite Star Theatre, which will be shown today aud tomorrow foe the benefit of the Ellen Pemberton Sunday school class, was not completed until the last week i f the big phofndrama's production, when Ihe character of Allan .

Lincoln, Mary Todd Lin coln and Anue Rutledge, played respec tively by George A. Billings. Nell t'raig and Ruth Clifford, carried the burden of the action, the character of Liuooln alone running through the entire length of the picture, ami front the age of twenty-one to his assassination the ride is played by | Mr. Billings.

I .Although the theatre was completed - last week and was run during that time, i the organ was dot ready to be played aud during the first week only the piano I attachment to the" organ was used—this ■ being used as an accompaniment to the I orchestras which were secured for the opening dates. There were so many attachments to be i soldered together and so many conuec i tions which had to be joined that the workmen putting it up were unable to complete it on time. However, practic • ally all the work has been finished and the organ is now being used. To play the organ, a Kope-Joues organ built by the Wurlitser people, the man agement has secured AA'illiam Klassette, ' of Atlanta and Charlotte, to take over the music. Air. Klassette, who is only about 20 years of age, seems to be quiet and dif ‘ fident. He did not relish the idea of ' talking about himself but later to'.d something of how fie came to take up pipe organ. He was rather fascinated ; by the organ when he was working in ' South Carolina and learned enough to play hymns and easy pieces. He then came to Charlotte, where he took up the THE CHARLES STORES 0 5c to $2.98 Department Stores 34 S.
