Woods to Still and Wait for
the Operator
Sheriff Roberson and his deputies
caught Henry Pearce, a colored man,
at a still Wednesday. The sheriff ana
his deputies were investigating the
place where a number of cattle had
been killed by poison when they
found a track over which a heavily
loaded cart had been driven through
the woods, carrying the still from
this particular point. They followed
the track for a considerable distance
and found the still, berr, and general
materials used in moonshining. They
secreted themselves and after waiting
for several hours Pearce came and
worked his beer over. Finding it w■. v
not properly fermented he went away
?nd practically walked over the offl
! cere who caught him. He was placed
in jail and has since been released
under a (300 cash bond furniahed by-
Marian Hodges, of Beaufort County.
RESOLUTIONS
,OF RESPECT
WA
Just as the freshness of Spring was
enveloping the world, and flowers and
buds were showing where the dark
drab had been the sweet spirit of Por
tia Smallwood Whitley was called
from earth to the eternal abode of the
Christian, there to dwell forever in
the presence of Him upon whom she
had leaned while in the flesh. Pa
tient and loving, long Buffering and
kind, she was always able "to go
singing to the mountain top, and then
descend into the valley, singing all
the way." Those who knew her best
can believe that she won the supreme
victory." —-—-
Through the years, though weaken
ed by affliction, her thoughtful care of
her family, her devotion to His
Church, and her interest in the work
of the woman's auxiliary of the
Church of the Advent, Williamston,
N. C., made up her life, and in all
she found that joy which only tho».
can have who walk with our Saviour.
With deepest sorrow the members
of the woman's auxiliary of the
Church of the Advent bow in humble
submission ta the passing of one of
ita most faithful and oldest members
and resolve:
First, That the memory of this
faithful friend and co-worker shall
ever be treasured; that her persever
ence, patience, and sweetness of spirit
are worthy of emulation; that the
auxiliary will miss her cheerful co
« operation.
Second, That the heartfelt sympathy
of the Auxiliary is extended to the
bereaved family, who is remembered
to God the Father in our prayers.
Third, That a copy ,of these resolu
tions be sent to the family and copies
to the Mission Herald and the Enter
prise for publication.

Maurice Moore Lectures to High
School Science Class on
"Electricity"
For the past two weeks the science
class of the locsl high school has been
busily engaged in the study of elec
tricity. On Tuesday and Thursday
the class was very fortunate to have
Mr. Maurice Moore to lecture to them
upon this subject. The lecture was not
only very interesting but very in
structive. Anyone who has made a
study of electricity knows that it is
very difficult to explain its actions and
behaviour to mature minds and much
more difficult to explain to young
minds. However, he handled his sub
ject with ease, presenting the most
technical facts in language and with
illustrations that practically everyone
clearly understood.

MOONSHINE
KILLS CATTLE
J. J. Roberson Loses Five Head of
Cattle When They Drink
Fermented Mash
J. J. Roberson & Sons lost Ave head
of cattle last week, death resulting
From drinking beer found ih the
woods. It is not known whether the
fermented beer killed them or whether
the moonshiners in a fit of anger
placed poison to kill the cattle in or
der to protect the beer.
The cattle were kept in a large pa.-i
ture of several thousand acres, com
ing to the barn at night and going
out in the big woods every day.
It was noticed that they had been
in beeir vats early last week, signs
were seen on the cattle as well hs
the beer scent being prevalent. Later
in the week they failed to come home,
...nd Mr. Roberson and his sons began
investigating. Three head of the cat
tle were found dead at- one place and
c few hundred yards away the other
two were found at a place where a
still had been located and beer mixed,
all of which had been removed. One
of the cows had been buried.
The cattle were worth some three
cr four hundred dollars, one being a
thoroughbred Hereford bull which hu I
taken several fair premiums.
The section where the Cattle wa
found has been dotted with stills for
some months, and a few loafers in
the neighborhood ,are supposed to !>*'

OPERATION OF
SLOT MACHINES
Copy of Law Relaiing to Slot Ma

Most of Them Illegal
j .
Newspapers have been mailed cbpie*
of the law governing operation of
slot The law, as seen by
the supreme court, makes the slot ma
chines which have become so popular
of late unlawful.
The text of the law follows: sj*
Consolidated Statutes, section 44.')7
(a) provides: It shall be unlawful for
any person, firm, or corporation to
operate, keep in his possession, or in
the possession of any other person,
firm, or corporation, for the purposs
of being operated, any slot machine
that shall not produce for or give to

same return in market value each and
every time such machine is operated
by placing money or c#in or the rep
resentative of either therein. Each
time said machine is operated as a
foresaid shall constitute a separate
offense.
The Supreme Court in construing
this section said, in the case of State

machine so operated Jhat one putting
into it a coin receives in any event
the value of such coin in chewing
gum and stands to win by chance ad
ditional chewing gum or discs of com

"That State license issued for th»»
operation of a slot machine is for one
that to lawful and Hoes not permit the
operation of one so devised as to give
to the one who happens to Strike cer
tain mechanical combinations more of
the merchandise than received at other
times." *

WASHINGTON
NEWS NOTES
Dawes aad the Senate Put on Regular.
Circus Performance: Warren
» Nomination Rejected
C- -
Washington, March 13.—The great
est circus that has hit Wellington in
several generations is now perform
ing. The gStes were opened March
4, when Charles G. Dawes took the
whip and cracked it over the Senate.
He told the Senate all . about the
things they must do, and every
one had been given his little part in
the big performance Mr. Dawfcs left
the show, but forgot to cage the ani
mals, leaving them to around
Washington—with pick and shovel
some with pistols, swords, and gyn—
moving around the tent and crying
out for vengeance, saying, "Mr. Dawes
you can not, nor you shall not cock
crow over the United States Senate,
the most august body in the world;
such a thing has never been done by
any man.
The next scene was when President
Coolidge sent the name of Charlos B-
Warren to the Senate for confirma
tion As Attorney General of the United
States, to sit in his Cabinet, and as
such be the legal advisor of all the
people. S
Mr. Dawes told the Senate he felt
sleepy, for them to go ahead and
."jower" all they pleased, that he was
going down town and take a nap.
Then it was that the Senate refused
to confirm the nomination of Mr. War
ren.
This is the flrst time in oyer 40
years that the Senato KUs failed to
confirm the nomination of a Cabinet
officer and is considered not oi\ly a
direct slap at Mr. Dawes but at Mr.
Coolidge as. well.
The current report says that Mr.
Warren wants to retire and not force
any further fight against, the Presi
dent.
President Coolidge takes a different
view of the situation, however, and
has renominated Mr. Warren,- and the
same fight will possibly have to be
made over.

For All Wife Beaters
Charleston, W. Va,, Mcli. 7.—Most
l>eople get a divorce in order to gei
married again. This statement wji
made here by litfcv. J. W. Craves, oi
Clarksburg, W. Va., in discussing the
widely heralded divorce situation in
the United States.
Divorces, he declared, are too easily
obtained and their large ntimber is
gradually undermining the Nation's
home life. ,
Asserting that a constitutional a
r.ieiulment providing uniform marri
age and divorce iaws throughout the
country should be adopted Doctor
Craves declared that divorce laws are
for the good of society but cater to
the whims of individuals.
"People are getting married who
luck -the training that is essential to
matrimonial success," he said. "Many
c,f tile marrjed men do not know how
to )earn a detent living ,and many ctf
the married women do not know even
the fundamentals of cooking a meal."
Doctor Graves advocated a return
to the old-fashioned whipping post to
punish men who abuse their wives,
"Instead of punishing the man who
mistreats his wife," he continued, "the
courts give the woman a divorce which
frees the man of responsibility."
"Men and women who are not nieri
tidly, morally, or physically fit for
marriage should not lie permitted to
come to the marriuge al'ar," Doctor
Craves said.

SAVINGS
Savings represent much more than
value. They are the
proof that the saver is worth some
tKlHfe in himself. Any fool can waste,
any fool cart meddle; but it takes
something of a man to save and the
more he saves the more of a man it
makes of him. Waste and extrava
gance unsettle a man's mind for ever;
crisis; thrift, which means some form
of self restrain, steadies it. —Rudy art!
