STORY OF JOSEPH TO BE
TOLD SUNDAY NIGHT
On this Sunday night, October 8,
at 7.30 o'clock In Christ Church the
Story of Joseph will be told by the
rector and shown In pictures by the
use of an electrical stereoptican. It
has been said that truth is stranger
than fiction, and the biblical story of
Joseph bears out the statement.
What other character of history la
so Interesting and resembles so much
an Arabian Xlght story? The mere
mention of the coat of many colors
arouses the Imagination ot all peo
ple Interested In the Bible and It has
had the same effect upon the great
artists who have painted the scenes
related. Joseph enters Egypt a
slave nd becomes a ruler ot the
Egyptians next to Pharoah himself,
yet not a native Egyptian. Tire
story has appealed to many of the
world's artists whose pictures on the
subject will be shown Sunday night.
The same pictures and lecture will
be shown in Camden Wednesday
night.
Shelton G. Scott of this city have
been appointed by Colonel Joseph
j Hyde Pratt. State Geologist of
Chapel Hill, to succeed A. B. Jloutz,
and O. F. Gilbert, resigned mem
bers of the Pasquotank -Highway
Commission.
In making these appointments
Colonel Pratt ignored the recom
mendations of the Pasquotank
Board of County Commissioners,
which recommended the appoint
ment of J. A. Byrum and X. S. Leary,
and was guided by the wishes of J.
W. Foreman, O. L. Bundy, J. J. Mor
ris and A. E. Jones, the majority
ments give Salem township two
memberg'of the Commission.
Colonel Pratt has been In no hurry
to fill the vacancies on the Commls-
sion, the matter having been In his
hands now for more than two
months. Perhaps if Mr. Scott and
Dr. Davis had been appointed in
time to sit with the Commission at
its meeting on last Tuesday the ses
sion might have been less stormy.
Colonel Pratt's appointments
would teem to have been guided by'
a desire to restore harmony on Pas
quotank's road building body,
though he makes no statement as to
what course of reasoning has guided
his action. His letter to the Com
mission adviBing that body ot his
action is brief and reads as follows:
"According to authority vested In
me by act of the General Assembly
In 1915, I am appointing S. G.
Scott of Elizabeth City and Dr. R.
B. Davis ot Weeksvllle as members
of the Pasquotank Highway Commis
sion to fill the vacancies caused by
the resignation of Messrs. O. F. Gil
bert and A. B. Houtz."
