Town Board Buys
Lot On Fourth St.
Guards at Station Grade
Crossing Taken Off;
New Crossing Is Being
Discussed; Preparing
Paving Assessments
The town board at its regular
meeting Tuesday evening approv
ed the purchase of a lot on Fourth
street adjoining the fire house. The
property which is 26Vi by 210 feet
was bought of T. R. Hood at a
consideration of $2,000. The fire
house occupies practically the
whole of the lot along Fourth
street on which it is situated, and
additional ground was needed as
an outlet from the rear of the
house.
The usual routine business was
transacted Tuesday night, the only
other thing of general interest
coming up for discussion being a
letter from Capt. W. II. Newell,
of the A. C. L. regarding the grade
crossings at the station. Capt.
Newell advised the town authori
ties that the watchmen who have
guarded the crossing north of the
station, have been taken off, since
traffic has been allowed on the
new hardsurfaced highway. This
action raised the question of how
best to make safe the railroad
crossings at the station. No defi
nite action was taken in the mat
ter but some sort of recommen
dations will no doubt be made in
the near future. One plan that has
been suggested is to abandon the
old crossing north of the station
entirely but let the road continue
from the end of Marke t street
crossing the railroad tracks where
the cotton platform now stands,
and curving slightly on the east
side of the track in order to join
the present road that passes in
front of Mr. D. B. Hamilton’s
place. In the event this crossing
should be adopted the A. C. L.
would probably install signals to
safeguard the crossing.
At this meeting there was some
slight discussion of the new pav
ing assessments which are now
being prepared and which will be
published shortly.

More Evidence In
Shooting Affair
Preliminary Hearing Re.
veals Details of Rogers
Blue Shooting That
Took Place in Kenly
Sunday Afternoon
KENLY, Feb. 9.— At the prelim
inary hearing on Monday morning
of James Rogers and Malaehi C.
Blue in regard to the accidental
shooting of Ella May Blue, Blue’s
wife, by Janies Rogers, her un
cle, on Sunday afternoon at the j
latter’s home where Blue and his
wife roomed, the following facts
came out:
On Sunday afternoon Blue took
his gun and went to ride. It is re
ported by those who saw him rid
ing* that he was under the influ
ence of liquor. Later in the after
noon when returning, as he turn
led a corner to drive up to Rog
ers’ home, he turned loose the
steering wheel. The car ran across
| the sidewalk into Rogers' yard
;and came near hitting a small
child of Rogers’. Rogers’ wife ask
asked Blue what he meant by such
reckless driving. He replied that he
meant nothing. James Rogers who
was in the house came to the
door and other words followed.
Then Rogers told Blue that if he
could not stop drinking and be
have himself he wanted him to re
move his belongings elsewhere
right then. Blue replied that he
would get his gun from the car
and that they would settle it then.
He proceeded to get his gun and
Rogers went into the house and
called to those outside to get the
police. When help ^arrived, Blue
| held the parties off the yard w'ith
| his gun. In the meantime Rogers
got his gun and went to an open
window where he shot at Blue
through a curtain. Blue’s wife, who
was out in the yard, happened to
step around that way just then
and received the shot which prov
ed to be fatal. Blue shot immed
iately after Rog*ers, the discharge
from his gun entering the window
facing.
Rogers was arrested and placed
in jail. Blue was arrested later
in Smithfield, at the hospital where
he had accompanied his wife who
died that evening as before stat
ed. On Monday morning Blue was
brought to Kenly where he and
Rogers were given a preliminary
hearing. Thafc afternoon both were
taken to Smithfield where they
are held in jail without bail.
Rogers is said to have a good \
reputation among the people of j
the community and the tragic acci- |
dent is regrettable. j

Church Society
For Sunday Law
Passes Resolution To Ask
Legislators To Enact
Sunday Closing Law for
Entire County; Other
Resolutions
The local Woman’s Missionary
Society of the Methodist church,
took the initiative, at its regular
meeting Monday afternoon, in a
matter that concerns all of John
ston county, when it adopted a
resolution calling upon the coun
ty’s representative? in the legisla
ture, to cause a law to be enacted
closing all places of business in
the county on Sunday. The society
was in a rcsoluting mood, and two
others were offered and passed.
One of these was an endorsement
of the bills pending in the legisla
ture to establish a farm colony for
women andto take over the in
lustrial school for delinquent ne
;*ro girls at Efland. The other was ,
n regard to the excess Bennett ;
Memorial fund, $133,00, which this
society would have used for im
nediate missionary needs in for
eign lands.
The text of the resolution re
rarding the Sunday closing in the '
county is as follows:
RESOLUTIONS.
Convinced that the determined
issault w’hich is being made by
he foes of Christianity' through
>ut the Nation against the Chris
;ian Sabbath, as reflected in the
•fforts to abolish all Sunday laws
ind being assured that every ef
fort to destroy the observance of ^
;he Sabbath, is a blow at the ]
•hurch, and that a blow at the j
:hurch is a blow at Christian Civ
lization of which God’s Holy Day
is the chief cornerstone, which ^
should be challenged by a united j
resolve upon the part of our ,
Christian citizenship. ^
And being further convinced
that the public operation of stores, (
garages, service stations and oth
er like businesses on Sunday is (
detrimental to the spiritual life of ^
the community and in direct vio- <
lation of the law of the State of ^
North Carolina as set forth in Sec. ,
2955 of the Consolidated Statutes, j
and that the flagrant violation of
said law is due to the fact that J
only a small forfeiture is prescrib- ,
c-d for said violation, instead of ‘
making its violation punishable by
a fine or imprisonment. '
Therefore, be it resolved by the
Woman’s Missionary Society of
Centenary Methodist Church,
Smithfield, North Carolina, that we
request Hon. Claude Canaday, of j
the Senate, and Hon. John W. I
Wood and Hon. H. R. Jones, of
the House, our representatives in
the General Assembly of North
Carolina, to cause a law to be en
acted, for Johnston county, which
shall provide, that on the Lord’s
day, commonly called Sunday, no
store, service station, garage or
filling station shall be kept open
in Johnston County for trade or
business, and that any person vi
olating said law shall be guilty of
a misdemeanor, and upon convic
tion shall be fined not more than
$50-00, or imprisoned for more
than 30 days, in the discretion of
the court.
Other business transacted by the
society Monday included the de
cision to take five shares of build
ing and loan stock to help build
the new Sunday school annex, and
the appropriation of $100 toward
the support of a foreign mission
ary, Kim Yung Hak, of Siberia.
The church voted at a recent quar
terly conference to give $600 as a
missionary special this year. Since
then it has been decided to use
this special for the support of a
missionary, and the contribution
from the missionary society will
apply on this fund.
CANADAYS BILL
PASSES SENATE
Among the bills which passed
the Senate Tuesday was one to
change the date of automlpbile
registration from the fiscal to the
calendar year which was introduc- i
icd by Hon. C. C. Canaday, senator i
from Johnston county. The bill
called forth much debate last
week but when it came to a vote
.the bill passed the senate success
fully, and was sent to the house.

PINE LEVEL, Feb. 10.—The

for farming. Most of the land has
been broken ready for spring
planting.
The basketball season has now
