Ainoena Seminary and Mount l'leax-i (ant Collegiate Institute was delivered' i here this morning at 111 :30 o'clock by I Prof. Frazer Hood. Ph.l)., Litt., D., !of the faculty of Davidson College. Dr. Hood had ns his subject “Consider : the Trees" and handled it in a master-1 I iy fashion. ! The commencement firogram for ( Monday afternoon and evening con- Isisted of the Alumni address at 3 :30 (o'clock by Prof. C. J. M. Blume. of I l<ynchbnrg, Va„ a member of the j graduating class of 1917. Prof. Bliune (spoke of the advances made in the ■South in the public schools and of jthe objectives that the schools have in the South though they have not j renehed them. I Monday evening the class drama I “Nothing Rut the Truth" was present ed in the Auditorium. The cast for the play was composed of students lof the 'English Departments of the Seminary and Institute and the per formance of the young men mid women wns a very creditable one and greatly enjoyed by those present. The address of- Dr. Hood this morn ing is as follows: An ancient proverb addressed to the sluggard admonishes him to go to the ant. consider her ways and be wise. Relieving that in my audience this morning the sluggard is conspicuous by his absence, I have no need to picture the life of slowth in language that would mnke you flee from it. Paraphrasing, however, the proverb, I shoud like to say to ypu with ail the per*uavines*. I ran isi*ttr. "s». their ways and lie wise"' At this time of the year I think that our fancy very naturally turns, either to thoughts of love, or the equally entrancing thoughts of trees indeed in my own experience they are intimately associated. When I wns your age there was rinthing so gloriously befitting the thrill of the preseuce of the beloved ns to see her embowered by “ancient, friendly, aithful trees." Today. I fear the Sylvan charm of love making has giv en way to the urban prose of gas and speed. God made the country, and man made the town, says the poet, and today it seems that the latter has invaded the former and threatens it antonomy. But whatever harm the urban invas ion of the country may do, I trust thut the army will spare the trees, for these, since the world began, have offered the very choicest gifts to man. And when we give our souls repose, there is not a mail among us who does not love a tree. Whether in solitary grandeur or merged in the greater glory of the forest, n tree has always awakened interest and emotion in the human heart. As Van Dyke so beautifully sings: "Many n tree is found in the woods, And every tree for its use is good: Some for the strength of the gnarled root, Some for the sweetness of flower or fruit; Some for shelter against the storm, And some to keep the hearth stone warm; Some for the roof and some for the beam. And some for n boat to breast the stream; In the wealth of the wood since the world began The trees have offered their gifts to man.” Put I am not come to plead for a more sane and enlightened self interest iu our-'treatment of the forests, how ever tempting such a theme would be .to me. Addressing young men nt this time and on this occasion, I desire .to hove you sit with me, at the feet of .a grdat master, anti learn some thing of the wisdom of life which a tree, can teach us. 1 enjoyed the friendship of a tax'* f° r a f ew . veara of my life and, I think it was from that intimacy more than any other . one influence that I became interested in trees. To him a tree was all but human. Among his many volumes one finds many poems about trees and certainly one' to a tree —a tree in the city. Here is a quotation from the poem: “O patriarch of the multitudinous Content'and calm amid this rush and roar, Still uncontaminated in. this strife 1 Free from repining for the fields or woods, ’ Teach me the grandeur of thy deep ■ repose. Teach me the glory of the goodly soul, ' That I may walk with conscience un disturbed Amid the sturggle in the marts of men.” May we not approach the trees hi , this spirit this morning?

Lind bergh, Who Is Beginning to Understand Better What It Means to Be Hero.—Plans Several Trips in His Plane. Paris. May 24.—G4 5 )—A short glimpe into the mass of letters and telegrniups that have accumulated since he sailed down upon Le Bom-get held, and the sight of a squadron of cavalry called out to help police keep open the streets through which he passed today gave Captain Charles Lindbergh a better outlook than lie has had thus far of the arduous fu ture before him as a world hero. Ambassador Herrick’s famous un expected guest gave up the corre spondence as a hopeless task, and took advantage of the ambassador's offer to turn letters and messages over to the embassy for proper classification and replies. The ambassador's staff, however, was unequal to such a big task, and Lindbergh finally called upon the Bnnkers Trust Company. "The boy", ns everybody familiarly calls him, was obviously more at ease today in clothes of his own turned out by a Paris tailor in record time. Since hie arrival from New York he hud been- wearing borrowed clothes loaned to him by Parnielee Herrick, the ambassador's son. Lindbergh faced his first ordeal of the day, a luncheon tendered by the American Club, with composure. Af ter getting into the dining hall he was obliged to go out and show himself to prevent damage to the front of the building by enthusiastic masons and carpenters working on nearby struc tures, and' reinforced by the usual street crowds. Insistent calls of “to the balcony” and a push which resulted in au omi nous crash of glass decided Hie organ izers of the luncheon to comply with, the wishes of the crowd. Lindbergh went to the balcony. Facing the workmen and hearing their cheers he blushed again as he did yesterday, when President Dmim-1 ergue pinned the cross of the Legion ] of Honor to hi* breast, and as he did j again today when the one armed Gen-, i eral Gouraud i kissed him on both cheeks. ■ Lindbergh had to go through the kitchens and basement of the Hotel] Ambassador, where the luncheon was given, to get up to the balcony. On the way he was forced to stop and shake hands with the cooks and scullery boys who abandoned pots and kettles to give him one of the most spontaneous welcomes he lias received. Those who could reach him patted him, kissed liis hands, or gave vent to their frantic enthusiasm in any way that presented itself. Lindbergh came out through a window of the balcony with the French flag in his hands and the street roared with cheers. “Middinettes” or shop girls from all the dress making and millinery estab lishments in the center of Paris massed on the opposite side of the street, were less favored than the cooks and scul lery boys, having to content them selves with throwing him kisses across the street. Lindbergh showed he was es]ieoially pleased by the demonstration of mas ons. carpenters and shop girls. Will Visit Brussels. Brussels, Belgium, May-24.—(A 1 ) — As in Paris, the American embassy here will take charge of Captain Lind bergh when he lands here Saturday on his flight from Paris. The embassa.v today was engaged in making arrange ments for the visit. Princess Galatzinc Gets Dtvwrce.

ONE DEAD. FIVE HFRT IN ODD ACCIDENT Man Killed When Motor Car Ran- Off Tracks While Carrying Section Crew. Charlotte, May 24.—( A* )—One man is dead and three men and two chil dren are in hospitals injured, as a result of three unusual accidents in widely scattered sections of North Carolina today. The death occured near Brevard this morning, when David Barton, n section hand, was killer! and ('. G. Combs, foreman, probably fatally in jured when a small motor car on which the section crew was going to work, jumped the track on a curve. Barton was caught between the car and a guard rail. Combs sustained fractures of both legs and head in juries. Douglas Crotts. 4 years old. sus tained a broken leg when two automo biles bollied at Siler City while he was sitting on a box a few feet from the street. Jack Byrd, 3. was injur ed Internally in the same aceident. j The force of the collision was such j that both cars were knocked from the | strept and struck the Crotts boy. The!

Fiery and Scathing Addresses Before the Efird Will Jury Albemarle, May 23.—The Stanly county jury trying the Efird will case and a courtroom full of spec tators today listened to two of the most fiery and at times scathing ad dresses ever delivered in a North Carolina courtroom. R. L. Brown, Albemarle lnwyei. blistered James A. Lockhart, of Charlotte, for his attack on Attor ney R. L. Smith during Lockhart’s merciless cross examination, calling it “spurious and uncalled for." while Lockhart in turn this after noon hopped on Mr. Smith. Charles Cannon and the Wachovia Bank and Trust company, the three trustees named in the Efird will, and fairly roasted and salted them. Especially was lie severe in hi* attack on Attorney Smith, the man who wrote the will under dispute and who testified at some length as to its preparation and execution. In deed. to use a cornfield expression, he fairly took the hide off of the writer of the Efird will, not hesitat ing to state that “K. 1,. Smith has shown to this jiiry that he does not hesitate to swear falsely when he thinks he can get away with it.” And Lockhart was little less severe on Charles Cannon who, although not a witness in the case, is a trus tee named in the will. One thing which brought Mr. Can non's name into the ease more prominently than it would otherwise have been was the testimony of one witness that the late John S. Efird. the alleged testator, told his brother that on one occasion Charles Can non offered him $50,000 to assist him in getting Joe Cannon out of control of the Wiscassett Mills com-1 pany of this p'ace. Lockhart stated I that Charles Cannon is aspiring to be the industrial emperor of North Carolina, and he did not believe John S. Efird ever intended to put him ,in eontrol of his fortune , to enable him to foree TRs own brothers and his own sons to bow down to him as their master and as master of the Efird Manufacturing pofn pany. “We can profit by history, laiek hnrt told the jury, and then he re lated the story of old King James and Charles, of how the o’.d hymn wns sung. “Praise Charles from whom all blessings flow, praise him all Stuarts here below." adding, “Gentlemen of the jury, if you let this wi’l stand John S. Efird's broth er* and oons may sing. ‘Praise Char les from whom all blessings flow, praise him all Efirds here below’.” As Lockhart was severe on Smith and Cannon, R. L. Brown in his ad dress this morning was little less severe on Isickhart. Brown paid a high tribute to str. Smith and de- Great Britain To Enqfl Trade Agreement WitJfH The Soviets Thursday!

Xcw York to Paris flyer, for his re turn to this country. The Navy Department directed Commander W. W. Galbraith of the destroyer division 25, which is now located in European waters, to offer file services of the vessel for Lind bergh's return. Accommodations will also be offer ed for the return here of Lindbergh's plane. "The Spirit of St. Louis." The division sails from its Euro pean base about June 15. and if the offer is accepted this would bring Lindbergh back to the T'nited States about a week from that date. Included in the division are six de stroyers. The navy's action was taken after a conference at white houses today between President Coolidge and Act ing Secretary Robinson, of the Navy j Department. i THE COTTON MARKET i i Opened Steady at I nchanged Prices to Decline of 8 Points. i New York, May 24.— UP) —The cot , ton market opened steady today at un j changed prices to a decline of 9 I points under realizing or selling for a | reaction after the advance yesterday, i The relatively easy showing of Liv erpool, was probably a contributing ■factor, but the declines here brought in considrable buying and the under tone of the market was fairly steady although the jurices worked off to 1(5.29 for July and 1(5.88 for Decem ber, or about 14 to 15 points net low er by the end of the first hour. Later prices worked up several jxiiiits on weather news. Cotton futures opened steady : July 16.45; October 16.80: December 17.10; January 17.08; March 17.20. Byrd Howell Takes Own Life.

I have fought Bob Smitli as hard as any man at this bar ami he lias fought me as hard as he ever fought any j man* in a law suit, but 1 resent as unfounded any insinuation on the part of Mr. Loeklmrt that he is dis honest and crooked. You might rake this county with a fine toothed comb and you could not among the more than thirty thousand people who live here bring a single man who wo"ld give Bob Smith a bad charac ter." Otherwise than when be launched his attack on Attorney Lockhart. Mr. Brown confined his argument to the facts brought out in the evi dence, taking up the testimony of each witness for the propounders and the caveator and handling it in a most skillful manner, concluding with an appeal to the jury to stand by John S. Efird’s will and stating that the caveator was well taken care of by its terms. Declaring that from the lapsed legacy of one-fifth of tlie estate W. T. Efird. the caveator, would get, immediately, from seven ty-five to a hundred thousand dol lars, that by the terms of the will he had a guarantee that not only would the caveator's children be well eared for and educated, but that young Efird himself and his wife are to be cared for by the trustees, in ease of necessity. Attorney Brown said. “If I had seventy-five thousand dollars in cash nnd a guarantee that outside of that I would be supported land my children supported ami edu- I onted. I would jump up and strike j my feet together three times nnd re- I tire from the law practice at once.” I Possibly the smoothest, though the shortest address made thus far by I nil attorney in this case, was that of Attorney T: C. Guthrie, of the Char lotte bar. Mr. Guthrie spoke mis afternoon and only consumed about one hrtur. His address was concise and able nnd right to the point at issue in the ease. Court adjourned before James A Lockhart had completed his speech. Seen by the writer after court had adjourned this afternoon. Lockhart stated that his address will consume at least an hour of the session fie morrow morning. He wilt be fol lowed by Mr. Cansler. who makes the last speech in the ease, and then will come the charge of Judge Bowie and the jury wfl possibly tn*c the case some time tomorrow afternoon. Those who know Attorney Lock hart believe that he has not yet reached the climax in hie speech, while others do not believe that It will be possible for him to be more senthing or severe than he was this afternoon. - ■ 1 THE tribune m TODAY’S NEwl TOQjjB NO. 1J | Jj* Housei commons of Govejidf ■j fnent Plans Followiltg Recent TRADE MISSION X TO LEAVE CM Great Britain Will RfsMK§ Mission From Moscow- If 11 the Plans Are Given mH9 proval of the House. ■ 9 London, May 24. — UP) — Baldwin lold the House of ( today that Great Britain would inate her trade agreement with Thursday, and reqnira' drawal of the trade mission and et delegation from London House should express disapprosgjj@H HR this course.
