Page Four ALLPORT PURSUED TRAIN (Continued from Page 1) telephoned to Carr boro, but the train had already passed there. Then she telephoned the alarm to Hillsboro, asking that the cars be searched. Chief of Police Wright, of Carrboro, happened to drop in at the railroad station at about this time and said to the agent: “A colored fellow's just brought in a child he found on his way from Chapel Hill. Won der whose kid he is? Can't get anything out of him except he wants his mama." The colored man had reported having found the child in a field some distance from the railroad track just before dark. Appar ently the truant had fallowed the rails for a while and then de cided to seek another sort of scenery. The agent let Mrs. Harris know at once. She went out to the Carrboro station in an auto mobile. Edward told her that he was willing to go home but much preferred that his new friend, Mr. Wright, take him. Finally he was persuaded to go back to Chapel Hill with her. When Mr. and Mrs. Allport returned from Durham Edward was safe at home, so they did not know’ a thing about the af fair until it was all over. For many years to come Edward is going to be a super-carefu’ly watched boy. His parents vow that he will never again be out of the sight of one or the other of them. CLUBMEN GRUB STUMPS (Continued from Page 1) bably be a good deal larger in the future; last Saturday many of the men were kept away by pressing business, namely, the high school championship foot ball game over on Emerson Field. Work on the golf course is going ahead. A hundred tons of rock have already been taken away from the ground near the clubhouse to the stone-crusher of T. C. Thompson Brothers, and more hundreds of tons will be carted away to meet the same fate. . It is on the fairways of the second and third holes that most progress has been made.

C. had workmen busy here with plows and harrows. Terraces have been built along the hill sides. Grass planted not long ago is already sprouting. The grading of the greens is nearly completed. The stones, which ; here were small—not like the boulders near the house —have been got out of the way. Even now golfers might prac tice their drives and iron shots on these two holes, were it not that the ground recently har rowed and planted must be al lowed to rest for a while before being trod upon. All in all, the golf course looks unpromising as one stands at the house, but promising out beyond the rocky stretch. Undoubtedly play will be possible on part of the course long before the whole of it is ready. Colored School Meeting Leading colored citizens met one night recently under the auspices of the. colored Parent- Teachers’ Association, in the in terest of the Orange County Traning school. M. C. S.
