Tuesday is the day which calls
every American citizen to exercise
his governmental right and to say
whom he would have to rule over
him for th? next four years.
More han 40.000,000 people will
have that sacred rijrht, perhaps no:
ir#s* than 25,000,000 will even think
or caie for that right.
Martin count? has about 4,500 legal
electors, about 2.500 of this number
are expect e>i to go to the polls ami
cast their ballots.
In t>e efc-ven voting precincts,
V l.lianiMon and Robersonville will
cast the !ar*c st numb-r of voles and
Mi P. it and I'oplar Point will
probably be ven ill casting the -mall
eft number of votes.
i>riffia- will ess' the largest vote
in propottii' i I" its population. •
Every pi. - ct in the county will

The par>y ve'.e for Governor will b«

Several aiwwilmjnt.> to the State

VST PROGRAMME OF

RENDERED LAST NIGHT
Two Brilliaat Lectures Given By
l>r. A. M. Hyde At School
Baildiax Yesterday
The Radcliffe Chautauqua which
has held a three days Chautauqua in
the Wiliam.-ton school auditoriuir on
eluded their entertainments las- um
in«» with a very progr im.
The lecturer yestenlay was D>-. A.
M. Hyde of Btvton -un»' wilhou: i
doubt, he is one of tho rongest lec
turers that ever vi.ited the citv. He
been with the Rndditre t"hau->
tuU'fua since its orxanizati-u eleven
\t ars aKo and before tluit he was A
,ast«r of a lanr* «tv church.
"That Old Gang of Mine" was the
>ubj?ct of yesterday afternoon's lec
turer. It was in a sad, sweet strain,
full of pahtos but it carried many
practical lessons. The evening's sub
ject was "Better Tomorrow" and it
was a very wonderful licture or this
subject. The thread of THOUGHTS WHS
that a better tomorrow could only
be the re .ult of the application of
the teachings and ethic., of the lowly J
Xazarene. to Tftfc everyday w;«lk of
the |«'ople ami the nations
Mrs. Edith Marshall Clark of the
Clark Novelty company, assisted by
M iss Soule of Boston, pri>vel herself
to be an artist of unusual ability.
She was marvelou- in her handling of
the Swiss hand bells, the xylophone,
the cello, and the musical lyre.
Miss Green, superintendent, has not
yet finished the contract for next ve:tr
hut she already had more half
enough signers and she hopes to have
_• he rest by tomorrow when she leaves.
The Chautauqua luis been e'njcyisl;
ali the program* being interesting.
Some were more outstanding than
rthrs, but the lectures have all been
exceptionally fine and they have been
enjoyed by all those who have avail
ed themselves of th« opportunity of
hearing them.
The trouble with our go.«l f.dk- is
that we have yet do not hear mary
of the good thing- that eie hroutlt
to us, or it would not be anv tri.uiilf
to get a contract handle I.
