POLITICS TO THE FRONT.
f The political ball was started to
rolling here last night when Mrs.
Lindsay Patterson addressed tho "citizens
in this court house. She was
greeted by a large audience and was
introduced by Mr. W. D. Merritt. Her
speech was listened to by an attentive
" audience, many of them being of the
opposite political faith and were anxious
to know what was going to bs
the plea for the Republican party,
but in this they were disappointed
for the Republican candidate for Con*

slightly.
Mra.. Patterson is a splendid talker,
with a sweet, mellow voice and
i- beautiful in appearance. Standing on
m chair, from which she delivered her
speech, under a bright electric light
?'as ilia ladies would say, beautifully
gcwied-^wjth diamonds spnrklimpwtih
each turn of the head she was
indeed a beautiful woman. Really,
her speech could hardly be termed aj
political speech for alia did not touch
upon any cf the great issues. Aa to j
the. tariff and the bonus she was, silent
in seven languages. Her reference
to the League of Nations was
amusing, fcr the_ audience thought
tram her int^gjluctory remarks on
tblis subject that she was in sympathy
with it and the audience cheered
her with' deafening cheers, being the
loudest applause during her speech,
but before concluding slta turned 'the
tables and gloried the Republican
party for causing the defeat of this
measure.

As a- citizen what do I mean to mv
- County?
. Every citizen of Person County
ought to be proud of his county and
deeply interested in all matters that
tend to make his or her county a better
place in which to live. We are
glad that nearly all our citizens are
of this type. We have a right to be
. proud cf cur citizenship. Surely Person
County people rank among the
in the state. They are thrifty,
kin^hearted, noble, and true.Person
County's Greatest Need.
WWat does Person County really
need most of all things? Let each
whq^reads this think, pray and ans
_i_ wer. Sorely the answer will be school ?
hnilHinfT?-.mnTT flnri better equipped
school-buiklings.^ It Is a shame tl'at
our boys and girls have such poor aecommodations
in the way of buildings
and equipment. Nearly every school
is crowded beyond comfort or reason.
Three other High Sctbols, are sorely
needed in the rural districts, and Rox- |
boro is simply compelled to have tij
High School building 'if her people ]
are to be accommodated. Let all the |
people of tt'a county center their]
thoughts and prayers- on this one!

CHILD RL:N OVER
BY AUTOMOBILE-1
Last Friday evening there came I
near being a serious accident on Mam
Street. From what we can gather it
seems that the 'little five year"*6ld
on of Mr. and Mrs. Lester Hall started
to cross the street just hs big car ,
drove up, the car hit the child knocks ,
"g it down Ttipro i? n Hiflferenre of]
opinion with tlJoee who witnessed the
'accident, some sa^ the front wheel
ran over the body while ethers say
it did not. However. Mrs. Halt, the
mother, picked up the little' fellow !'
ind carried 'nim into Davis Drug ;
Store wbare a Doctor was soon secured
and'it was found he was not I
| seriously hurt. The street at this j
point is very narrow and one In I
crossing can not be too careful for
even the best driver is liable to run
you down, for with the street full of
maehines, as it usually is, crossing
i is dangerous. I
