ft.nili “BfiWS CRANFORD CASE.
p • North rurolinu is aroused over the
IffifflßlK i's N. e. Cranford, the convict
‘‘liosn" of Stanly county. If the
; mkkiuste- agoinst Wrn are true then he
.
> deserves the severest punishment.
In turning over to fbe Stanly county
grand jury certain testimony in the
case. Judge McElroy, prodding at
the trial of Cranford, remarked that”
he did not know whether the charges
are true, but he “hoped the defendant
i may be able to satisfy a trial jury
, that he is not guilty,” because ‘if he
is guilty of the matters which the evi
dence points out, the highest penalty
of the law is not sufficient to punish
him for what he has done.”
The Stanly News-Herald summar
izes the testimony editorially, declar
ing that if the sworn testimony “is
onedialf true, it would show the de
fendant to be a wholesale mu Merer,
and if one-fifth true, would make the
I‘haroah who oppressed the Israelites
look like a piker as a cruel taskmaster
in comparison with the man in whose
cai-e and custody our prisoners are
placed.” I
*rs, News-Herald also suggests that
if the charges are sustained there is
i.p-.„ „f the county comnrs
sioners abolishing the Stanly chain
gang. We agree with The Charlotte
Observer in tne opinion that such ac
tion will not lx- warranted. “To abol
ish the institution merely because of
developed cruelties practiced in the 1
past, would establish a react ; on out of
proportion to the demands of the sit
uation.” says The Observer.
What needs to be done is the crea
tion of a system that will prohibit
grounds ■ for such charges that have
been made against Cranford. Chain
gangs are maintained in other coun
ties in the State and they are main
tained on a humane basis. It seems
hard to understand how such condi
tions could have existed as long as
certain witnesses have testified. Some- {
one should always be available for ,
inquiry into the treatment of prison- i
ers and if inquiries have been made
in Stanyl it seems only reasonable
that sodmethiug would (lave come to 1
tight long before now.
The case must be thrashed out en- 1
tirely. The State has been shocked
by the developments so far and noth
ing less than a denial that ean be sus
tained or a sentence : n keeping with
‘be seriousness of the crime will sat- |
! sfy an aroused public.

Modern Methods cf Teaching.
Monroe Enquirer.
I have often wondered what would
be the result if a normal child at in
fancy should be so placed that it
would never hear a voice or come in
contact with humankind.
I)o not children learn of tfieir eld
ers? And does not a child develop
more rapidly when associated with
older brothers and sisters?
, Now, the point I desire to make '»
that in our public cho Is where prac
tically all children of like age are
1 kept in separate rooms, would not
younger children learu much more
, "apidly if they could observe the wrk

asked, pointing to A, “what is this

the small boy know the B. and C. “Go

SYNOPSIS
At ten P. M. Connemara Moore tlip
ied out of her Aunt Ctlimena’i Con
xecticut home, hailed young David La
fy—whom she doesn't knoxo — as he
tvas driving by and announced that
the proposed to drive toward New
York with him. She is dressed eu a
nun. By midnight Connemara must
announce her engagement either to
Bing Carrington or Salt Adams or be
disinherited by auntie. But midnight
is fast approaching' and Connie is
speeding away rapidly.
CHAPTER lll—Continued
Why, he thought, should he sud
denly remember that American girl,
seen but once, who 'had had the
power of upsetting him? It was a
long time ago that he had seen her
and spoken to her for five minutes—
more than two years—and yet thdre
she .was, stuck in his „rain. By-
Jove! A girl like that! One might
marry her and be satisfied for life.
That would be an experience to be
underlined three times in red.
All at once moved by an over
whelming impulse he turned and
I said, "I say, Sister Dannemora ”
I “Connemara” she corrected him
in a cool, level voice,
j “I say—” But he did not con
| tinue. One glance at her was
[ enough. The nun had outwitted
j him. At some time or other during
the past ten minutes she had slipped
front somewhere in the fojds of her
-1 white robe a mask of white silk that
now hid hgr face, aN save the eyes,
which regarded him with a roguish
air out of all keeping with her shin
ing garments,' And her hair. It too
lay hidden beneath the cowl. Why
hadn't he noticed that until this mo
ment? »
t
N ( - ■
'
“What the hell d’you think this !
U?” be«an the policeman. i
“I say,” he began again, “you 1
can’t wear that thing—the mask, I
mean. We'll be in Greenwich in a j
moment or two, and the police will |
hold us up. They'll take you for a
bandit! We’ll be arrested!”
For a moment Sister Connemara
hesitated. Then in a voice like a
I choir of innocent angels, she saia.
“I throw myselt at your mercy, sir,
I dare not show my face. There
are reasons. I trust you to protect
me.”
Again he turned to look at hpx, so
sharply that the car veered Sudden
ly and very nearly collided with a
vegetable stand which stood before
the gate of a roadside farmhouse.
“We just missed the tomatoes,”
observed Sister Connemara. “What
a smash they would have made—
and me all in white too."
On the road before them the
lights of Greenwich began to ap
pear, little lozenges of light twink
ling through the faint mist which
Jjad begun to drift up from the salt
marshes.
The redoubtable Mr. Lacy grew
sulky. He resolved not to speak to
this sophisticated nun by his side.
For a time he drove without paying
any heed to her. She might have
been a part of the motor itself, the
I speedometer, or' the piston rod, for
all he cared. Vet, after two or three
minutes, he said, quite unwillingly,
“But what am I going to do with
you when I get to town? I can’t
turn you loose in the streets. You’d
be arrested in that rig.”
From behind the maak came the
faintest gurgling sound, as if Sister
Connemara were laughing at him,
“Just tike a man,” she murmured,
“putting all the blame on the
wdman.”
i Lacy swore. “My God!” he said,
“are you saving me 'or am I saving
you?" *
“My Auqt Celimena.” retorted the

’ I’ve had two proposals tonight an

' Lacy decid'd this adventure must
I be underscored twice in red. Ther.
’ had never been anything quite like
* i ' l '
The villas were now whizzing 1
' past in a stream of neat lawns, well
-1 trimmed privet hedges, porch
swings, and canna beds. '
"I have an apartment in town,”
he began helplessly. “On Park
Avenue. It’s closed, but I’ve kept
i a room open for myself. I might
- take you there and hide you until i
you got some other clothes.”'
“Oh, I couldn’t do that,” cooed
Sister Connemara, “that would com
-1 promise me.”
This time Lacy swore violently 1
and not altogether under his breath. ,
Then, remembering the white-robed
figure beside him. he checked him
self in time to hear a voice say
sweetly, "I don't know what all 1
those weirds mean.”
And then into the midst of Lacy’s ''
fury came the sound which was an I,
omen of the worst that could hap- i
pen. Steadily from somewhere be
hind the*big Isotta-Franchini there jl
rose with increasing volume the j
’ * hug-chug of a motorcycle. He |,
turned fiercely to his companion. |
“Now you see what you’ve done.”
I he muttered. “There’s a motorcop ! -
after us.”
"Blaming it on the woman again,”
* n t the sweet voice.
Hv couldn’t increase his speed,
* for they were now in the heart of ,
Greenwich. If they had been art,| ,
j open country road. . . . chug, j
■ • . chug . . . chug-chug! The I
fatal sound came near and nearer
until David Lacy, swearing silently i
this time, drew up to the ctjrb and j 1
the motorcycle came alongside. It
was hopeless.
"What the hell d’you think this
is " began the policeman, balancing j.
himself on the motorcycle. “A
speedway?”
“I hadn't thought much about it,"
replied Lacy. “I had my mind on
other things.” And he gave his
companion J vhat is known as a dirty
look.
The motor had stopped, in the
shadow of a great elm, so that it
■was impossible to distinguish the
face of himself or his companion
With the air of one accustomed to
sucli episodes, he had switched off
the tail light.
“It'll cost you twenty-five—" be
gan the cop.
“Here,” said Lacy, drawing hi?
wallet from his pocket.
“None o’ that stuff either.” re
torted the policeman. “Don’t you
read the papers? They’ve been dig
ging up dirt on us.”
The wallet slipped back into the
pocket just as the policeman switch
ed an electrig torch full into the
motor.
“Ah,” he began, with an exas
perating drawl. “What’s this? A
woman in a mask. . . . Some
kind of dirty work. So that's it.”
Now the glib and worldly' Lacy
had faced in his time many trying
situations. For days he had held at
bay a band of head hunters in wild
est New Guinea; he had negotiated
the escape of the notorious Baroness
Simkovich, across the Russian bor
der through the very teeth of the
Bolsheviks into Finland; he had
stabbed to death a gorilla with a ta
ble knife when the monster invaded
his tent during a shooting expedi
tion in the wild regions near Mount
Hokmgji; he had. . . . All these
things flashed through his mind, bu?
none seemed the proper solution.
“I— I—” he began, stammering.
The subtle frail scent of mimosa
Smote his nostrils. “I—mean to say.
. . .” But he was unable to get
aiy further. 1
Then the soft, insinuating voice
of the nun beside him reached his
ear. She had removed the mask
and was now facing the full glare of
the policeman's light, but Jter back
was turned: he could not see her
face. \
“Don’t stop us,.officer,” she was
saying in a voice that would have
,wrung the heart of a stotae idol
“We’re on our way to see my sick
