Howard Southgate and Beverly. Campbell, departed from Charlotte Sat- j u iday night for their respective homes. | Because of the extended experience in ' their particular lines of work, both Mr. ! Southgate and Air. Campbell have had flattering offers to go elsewhere to stage | historical or other pageants, if One of these came from a city in Southern Illinois, where Thaddeus Wood 1 writer of the Meeklenburg pag-1 cant, has written a pageant based on j history there. Both Mr. Southgate and Mr. Campbell j rate the Mecklenburg pageant as one of the most successful affairs, from an j artistic and spectacular standpoint, they' ever have been connected with. They) said mueli of their success) was due to the fact that they were able to find many splendid performers for the east. Mr. Campbell, who arrived in Char lotte three months ago to take up tliei preliminary work looking toward staging 1 the pageant and carried out the first t work in that direction, in co-operation! with the members of the pageant asset-! elation here, left , for his home i u Rich-j mend. Va., where lie wifi remain for a short while for a rest before Making up anew his old game, moving pictures. Mr. Southgate, who has had already a successful career as a nactor on the! legitimate stage, in addition to direct-1 ing plays and staging pageantsh. will re-j turn to Chicago, where lie expects to re sume work on the legitimate stage.

For five years 1 John Hugh, known in years past to the medical world as I)r. Charles F. Hast ings. has collected curios ami re-paired toys in a small shop here. Children who brought broken dolls to be mended took an instant liking to the weft-spoken, mild-mannered, bearded man, who told them fairy stories as he re paired their playthings. Mothers often stopped to chat with him and inspect his curio collection. John Hugh today threw t ff the mask lie had worn for live years and admitted he is Dr. Hastings, who disappeared sud denly in 1920 from the Homeopathic Hospital in Pittsburgh. His "disap pearance." he revealed, was due to his desire to start anew a life that included seven years spent as an inmate of in sane asylums. Ixng Sreael) Ended.

I With the filing of Mrs. Hastings' will, search began for her missing son, who. j before his transformation, had been the i fmtnde rof a day nursery and baby feed j ing station in New Y ork. I “Find John Hugh and you find Dr. Charles F. Hastings." said Prof. H. M. i McCuliey. of Carnegie Technical School jat Pittsburgh. Today Sterrett walked into the repair j shop in East Fifth Street. He was . by a tall, bearded man. with long, graying hair that reached to his should- Pits. I After momentary surprise that he had 1 been found. Dr. Hastings admitted he | had read of. the search for him and had j written Dr. MeCully. asking him lio\v ! to claim I lie money left by his mother. | For a time, lie intends to carry on as ' John Hugh, toy doctor. Voices His Regrets. I “It will be hard to give up the happy, i carefree life of John Hugh." the white | haired man said. "For the present, I I shall continue to wear my whiskers and ; long hair, drive my small automobile and . make repair toys. After that. I don't | know." Going to the Fair Next Fall? Tlo Progressive Farmer. I If Premiums are to he consistently i won at fairs year after year, and if we rare to get the benefit from them we }■ should get. it should Jbc a part of our farm work to yarn ijbis honor of re ceiving awards. And If we are to fake premiums next fall, we must begin work 'long before the time eer for the fair to j open. i Boy's and girls' club work has been a gnat stimulus to community and cottn | ty lairs and the young people should be 1 encouraged in every way possible to I creditably represent the family. Many of them are better qualified to produce and ! disp'a.v products of the farm than those who are older. They are being trained • while young —we were not. The future j local, state, and even national, and in ; ternational fairs are much helped by young people's dub work. It is no uncommon thing now. how ever. to find father and son. mother and daughter—the whole family—winning ' premiums at fairs, whether community. ‘ county, district, state, or national; and • this is the ideal arrangement. AVe must soon decide what is to be 1 taken to the fair from our farm next fall. The sooner we decide, the greater our chances of winning premiums. Itut 1 premiums are not won merely by 1-0111- 1 ing to the decisioh that we Will make 1111 ' exhibit. We must grow and raise the ' very best —and if is striving to do this ' that we receive the greatest benefits we ! can from the fair. Alany leading club oarsmen of the East will compete on the Harlem River on Alav 30 in the annual Alemorial Day regatta ofthe New York Rowing Asso ciation- In till- Vnited f States there are five cities having hospitals staffed entirely by women.

Students in the public schools of Con cord are completing the year's work this < week and commencement exercises will be < Held from Thursday eveuiug through Mon- I day evening. 1 The grammar schools. Central and No. 1 2, will hold their graduating exercises - on Thursday evening 11ml the high sehol 1 finals will begin the next evening. The No. 2 school will hold its exercises in the 1 school auditorium and the exercises for the Central School graduates will "be held 1 in the high school auditorium. The ad- I dress to the graduntes of Central school 1 I will be delivered by Rev. Charles B. Sco vil, rector of All Saints Episcopal Church. The seniors begin their finals with the ; presentation of the annual drama 011 Fri day evening. The recitation contest has already been held so the drama comes as the first feature of the finals. Oil Sunday morning at 11 o'clock in the high school I>r. J. C. Rowan will preach the baccalaureate sermon, and as usual all of the downtown churches and others iu the city who desire to do so. will worship at the service. The graduating exercises, the fiual at traction for commencement, will be held Monday evening. June first. The liter ary address will be delivered by Rev. F. J. l’rettymau, IX I j.. of Gastonia. Dr. TVettyman who was for a number of years chaplain of the I'nited States Sen ate. gi a most cultured gentleman and dis tinguished speaker. Aleinbers of the senior class several days ago decided that the custom of re ceiving flowers and other gifts at the graduating exercises will be dispensed with this year. For the past several years there have been so many presents for the members of the graduating classes that the exercises have been dragged and it was for this reason that the 1925 sen iors decided to receive their gifts at some other time than on the night when they hold thc r graduating exercises.

Clyde Outlaw, young white man. lias been arrested by local police officers at Ihe request of officers of Camden. S. ('.. who charged him with aiding his step father iu escaping from the Camden County chain gang. Outlaw is in the county jail and emphatically denies the charge. ,Outlaw's step-father is the man Br:g lmm. who was arrested iu Salisbury sev-. oral days ago at the request of Camden! officials. 11 is reported that when Brig-| ham.was carried back to Camden he told) officers there that Outlaw had aided him iu his escape from tin- chain gang, and 1 the Camden officers immediately issued the warrant for Outlaw.

"()ufiuiCs fiidtiier first told me. that her husband was free again, " Chief Talliirt stated this morning, "and later Outlaw told me. Tljey both advised me that Brigham was very mean to them, and both asked me to arrest him if he came here. We hart been on the watch for hint when Salisbury officers founds him there.” The officers quoted Outlaw as saying I he would be very foolish to aid in the es- I (ape of a man of whom lie was afraid. Airs. Brigham said her son had never been j in trouble and that lie would be the last j person in the world to aid his step-father i in an effort to secure his freedom. "We j are both afraid of him.” she is quoted by ! rile officers as saying, "and for that l-eas- | on bail told the police to me on the watch i for him here." Outlaw will go to Camden without re quisition papers if officers there insist ujion him being held after they have talk ed with him. EDUCATIONAL TRUSTEES MEET IN MT.
