Sept. 27 1922 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* rrMoa ilisi ma* fci?ll m.IIU.. I L uu 1IUV IWUIL- UU puaiKS UUV 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. BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETS IN REGULAR SESSION KENT "MONDAY.. 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.

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.
