Members of “Our Sunday Gang," Concord's unique organization for boys, paid a visit to the Southern Dai ries in Charlotte Friday afternoon, more than 260 persons being in the caravan that left Concord at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Accompanied by members of the High School band, who furnished mu sic for them, the youngsters made a triumphant trip through Tryon street in Charlotte. Traffic was baited fqr the motorcade as it moved through the business district of the Mecklenburg metro|>olis, hundreds of persons stop ping their work and centering their interest and attention on the boys who were riding huge trucks and handsome automobiles. The caravan left Concord prompt ly at 3 o'clock under the supervision of H. W. Blanks, secretary of the Concord Y. He was assisted by J. W. Denny and' Harry Lee Johnston, secretaries under him at the Y. Driv ers of the trucks and autos also kept an eye on the youngsters to see that no one was hurt. Representatives of the Southern Dairies, formerly the Chapin-Sacks corporation, met the party before it reached Charlotte and escorted it to their plant. In the plant the hoys were giver, permission to call for any kind of ice ert-am they wanted and there was no limit set on the amount they could cat. More than $lO6 worth of the cream was consumed hy the youngsters who glnrfied in finding au unending stream of ice cream. Every part of the plant was visit ed by the boys and the various pro cesses of ice cream making explained to them. After the inspection tour a representative of the company com plimented the boys on their gentle manly behavious. declaring they had done nothing unbecoming a real man. The swim planned for the boys at the Charlotte Y had to he called off. The water was ready but it was so late when the ice cream plant had been inspected that Mr. Blanks or dered the boys to return home. The trucks and autos carrying the boys wen' screaming with banners and pennants. Some of the banners read : “Lookout Bootleggers, the Sunday Gang Is After You." “We Support Our Churches, D„ You?” The dairy company also dad provided several big banners, on which were inscribed the name of the organization to which the boys belong and its own name. Members of the “gang" asked the writer to express their great appre ciation to the ice cream manufactur ers and to the individuals and com panies which furnished means of transportation for what they describ ed as "a whale of a trip." thie kid said lie was “desperately happy" on the.whole trip and all have agreed that the afternoon was the kind to tickle the fancy of any boy. "Why shouldn't we be happy?" one youngster put it, "when we got out, of school at 2 o'clock, got a fine ride I and then finished up with all the iee cream we could eat.” ZANE GREY STORY. Richard Dix in Title Role of Para mount's “Vanishing American." The first and only reproduction of the history making episode of the conquering of the Cliffdwellers by the racuging Indian nation of Nava jos has been made in the filming by Paramount of "The Vanishing Amer ican." A large portion of the 1 ft,(Mil) In dians who appear in the screen ver sion of Zane Grey's great tribute to a fast disappearing race took part in the making of these scenes. They entailed the construction of huge setting: in the iilniost inaccessible Sagi Canyon in Northern Arizona, ahd also the building of the largest Individual setting erected on the great Lasky ranch in the San Fer nando Valley. California, in years. The Navajos obtained their first I real civilization from the Ciiffdwcl lars, whom wq/now know ns the Hopis, following the defeat of the latter. Just how they scaled the al most impregnable walls of the [am ple who dwelt far up on the eliffs, how they waged a fierce, liand-to hand battle for hours before the Navajos routed the defenders and tossed them to deaath on the rocks below, is shown in tin se scenes. The eiiffdwellings reproduced on the Lasky ranch constitute a repro duction of the immense Betotakin and Kitseel cliff houses as they would apjiear if they were restored to their majestic' grandeur of three thousand years ago. More thau 100,- 000 feet of lumber and 6o tons of piaster went into their building. To have transported these materials oyer torturous trais in Arizona would have constituted an engineer- . mg feat beyond the present skill of mankind. This is just one of the hundreda ql episodes that go to make up “The fnuishing Americau” opening on Monday and Tuesday at the Star Theatre. Richard Dix appeal's as the Imßan hero of the story while Lois Wilson, Noah Beery and Malcolm McGregor complete the list of fea tured player*.

By W. M. SHERRILL North Carolinians boast, of the part! their ancestors played in the revolu-j tion against British customs and taxes, which eventually led to the creatiou of the United States, yet it is a fact that one of the most im- 1 portaut steps to the war which led to independence is not of geueral knowledge in North Carolina. We refer to the meeting of the Provincial Council of North Carolina Held in Halifax in April. 1776, and on April 12th endorsed a resotu ttion of independence. The import ance of this resolution, the first of its kind ill the history of the United States is reflected in "Halifax In dependence Day" which is legally rec ognized as a holiday in North Caro lina. Conditions in North Carolina, his torian tells us, had became so acute by 1774 between England's officers and citizens desiring other forms of government, that in this state meet ings of protest were being held. These meetiiigs were not sanctioned and often delegates to them had to be secretly chosen, but they had gained such prominence by August, 1774. that Governor Martin, holding a royal appointment, complained "that the meetings of the people were held without legal authority—that resolu tions had been entered into, and plan* concerted, derogatory to the authority of the King and Parliament, tending to excite discontent among the peo ple."- and ordered the people to for bear attending any such meetings, and ordered the king's officers to op pose such meetings to the utmost of their power. But the meetings continued, we are told, Wheeler's History declaring "the first assemblage independent of royal authority, of their (the people's) rep resentatives in North Carolina, oc curred at New Bern on 25th August. 1774. This assembly or congress, as it was called, was not a conflict of arms or force, but it was the first act of the drama for independence. John Harvey, of Perquimans, was chosen Speaker or Moderator. The assembly met next ill April, 1775. in New Bern, Speaker Harvey waning orders to the people to elect delegates to represent each town and county in the convention. This or der infuriated Governor Martin who denounced it as tending to introduce disorder and anarchy to the destruc tion of tile real interests of tile peo ple. The delegates were secretly chosen, however, and the assembly met in April, Harvey being re-elected speaker. Governor Martin sent a communi cation to the assembly denouncing it. yet the delegates passed resolutions approving the proceedings of the Con tinental Congress at Philadelphia the September before, and declared their intention to use what influence they ■ had to carry out the views of that i botl.v. Whereupon the governor dis solved the assembly. I This ended all legislative inter course between the governor and the | legislature and here terminated ali , royal rule on England, for a short I time afterwards Governor Martin I took refuge first in Fort Johnston and ! afterwards on his ship of war ill the 1 Cape Fear River. The next assembly «*as ealled by' Samuel Johnston, of Chowan county. I who succeeded John Harvey who had ! died, to meet at Hillsboro an Agust 21, 1775. This assembly became known as a Congress aud decided that money should be raised to equip State | troops. Tile militia wus organized and the civil government vested in : | A Provincial Council for the whole state. A District Committee of Safety for Each. District. County und Town Committees for each county and town. Again quoting from Wheeler's His tory we find: "The Provincial Council was com posed of one chosen by the whole Con gress. who was de facto, governor; and two persons from each district, chosen by the delegates thereof.* * * \ The court house in Johnston countyj “as the first place of their neseinbl ,ing. *• • Cornelius Harnett, of Wilmington, was president and James Green clerk. * • * The second meet ing of the Provincial Council was held at the court house in Johnston county on December IS, 1775. * * * The next session of Pile Council was held at New Bern on February 2S 1770." Soon after this the battle of Moore's Creek was fought, the Tories being defeated. Os the next, the fourth, meeting of the Provincial Council Wheeler's History says: "This body passed April 13, 1776, the following resolution unanimous ly: . " ‘Resolved, That tile delegates from | this Colony in the Continental Con-: gress be inapowered to concur with the delegates from the other colonies, in declaring independence and form ing foreign alliances; reserving to this Colony the sole and exclusive rights of forming a constitution and laws for this Colony - .” Thus two months before the event was declared in Congress. Nortli Car olina \vas ready us a State to fight for freedom. History of the United States says : "North Carolina was the I first colony to vote explicit sanction to independence. * * * Its effect on! the movement for iudepcndeuce in \ ■the other colonies was felt at once.” The passage of this resolution gives us our "Halifax Independence Day," an auuiversary date .that should be' of special significance to every North!
