B izabeth City High school is be ginning early to prepare its debates for the triangular contest In April. 3'he Advance hopes that to izabetti City will be ab to send a hljtn schooi debating team to Chape! Hill this year; but we fear that our hopes are too sanguine unless more atten tion is given the matter of public school debates In the hih school work here. There are other mgti schools in this section which wou d tie glad to meet Uizabeth City , in -debate but we have not heard Ufa1 any encouragement has been offei ed them. If Elizabeth City it afraid to meet represents vc of neighboring schools, how can she hope for success against r vals at 11 distance? Or if E' izabeth City ha. the idea that sma. Ier schools of this section can not put ollt a fle bating team worthy of their U'c EHzabeth C tv is reminded that at Chapel HiH Manteo's representatives have twice won pwe In thr second preliminary . Practice makes perfect, and it Elizabeth City has any aspirations toward a hlgfter standing in ' debaS? there must be more ot' practice' than 1. got from One public debate In a year. l Vfmw$r NOTICt Sale of Valuable Property By virtue ot a Deed of Trust ex ecuted to me by Seward Snow'fleu for certain purposes therein mention ed which said Deed of Trust bears date July 31 1915 and is registered in the ottlce of the Register of Deeds of Tasquotank county in Book 1 Page 411 I sha'l on Saturday No vember 13, 1915 otter for sae at the Court House Door in said County, at public Auction tor cash, the property conveyed to me in said Deed of Trust Same being all the r ght, title and interest of Seward Snowden'Th and to the fo lowing descrioed tract or parced of land To wit: Situated on the North side of Middle street in the Old B izabeth City Fair Grounds and know, as Lot No Si o;i llie p at of lots ae p at'ed in Book 13 Page 131 In the otnee of the Regis ter of Deeds for fasquotank coanry, N.
