Tho court | room, this morning, aa on tho open ing day, was packed with spectator* perhap* tho largest crowd that hat I ever been drawn by a tr.al here. A large percentage of women ware a jmong the spectator*. I Patrick has previously told the ds [tailed sto.y ul the shooting. Whih [lilac was reading the warrant foi !'

Harnett Schools Neat Week ) One of the chief drawbacks to ru • life for a long tine has been due I to the fact that there has been no | form of entertainment offered to the counti y people. No place where they might gather except at the I church on Sunday. Tor State of |North C.uolma. realizing this defect in the rotal life, instituted in 1915 lu Bureau of Community Service. 'This Bureau, as Its name implies, in [Instituted to serve the different com [raunitic* in the rural sections of the county. It goes, at least, twice a month to the community centers in the county, aad affords a means of entertainment for the people. The chief moans of entertalnmrnt is mo tlon p.ctures, which will be given lm the various school houses in the county. At present, nineteen counties have inaugurated this Community service. Rrg.nntng April 5MHh, a unit will be sent to Harnett County. A unit con I vista of truck, Delco l.igbt system, mo tion picture projector, mechanic, and director. Ten community contort will I be selected in the county, at which | points, not less than two meeting* will be held per month. The very best pic ture* will bo ihown at these meet ing*. Thivc pictures will be both edu ca; cual and humurous, six reels be irg shown at earn meeting. The Com munity Sviv.ec Director, a woman t.anted in this work, will b« present end will direct til* program and will organise tho Junior Citizenship Loa fcui. i h» meeting will be open to Horn* 1 'umonaii alion Ageols, Kura) Super 'Mori, County Superintendent*, and to a.;> m nifter or publie spirited cit izen who Ina a.iy piojoct that i» foi the betterment of the community and wish.* to discuss it briefly. it it* the purpoto of this Bureau that this meeting b« made the center of the community life. A tentative i rt of community centers have been prupureo in the oilier of the bounty ciupersnti.-idtnC Should these renters fail to support the project, other cen ter* swill be selected. It i» a very note worthy fact that in each couaty in which this work haa been tried, the people an- enthusiastic about it and it has not been necessary to move I a uait from one county to another. Each county has made It a permaa ent part of it* educational ptbgrajn. The Board of Community Service Las agreed to send this uait to Har nett county on ter* month* trial. If at the and of that tin* it i* fouad fiStSStfiTTB into another county. Bines no other county has ever dona this, it stands as a matter of course, that this unit wiil be retained in Harnrtt County lor an indefinite tins. Below | give a few answers copied from the Winston Daily Sentinel. Some interesting statement* were mad* in endorsing the work don* by Miss Eva Scales, county director of school extension for the past year, and since the institutioa of commu nity meetings in Foray the and fullast endnrerRivnt L* given from every part | of the county. I *‘I believe the people who attend these meetings would vote unaoi nfously for their continuance, be cause there are many mothers and children who have no other opportun ity for recreation, as they are not able to grt ,away from homo often. There are many who never saw a motion picture onlil this work was started in this community, and [through them many have caught the vision of better things.” “The best people of our conununi |ty support the work of the Commik nity Service Bureau. Educationally, I IhinV the picture! good and other! express thu same opinion and attend regularly.” “There Is absolutely no objection to the work that I can And expreseed by anyone and a majority of the people of our community profane to enjoy the entertainment and to er ror* valuable leaanns on arrdAtt of the educational value of the pic tures.” daggered away Iron tha witness and 'fell to the ground. An indication of on* line to be followed by tha defense asked many of the veniremen by John Q. Shaw and If. I*. Cook, wbo aaaistod the de fendant counsel in aeleetiag the fury. This question was whether or toot tbe fact that the prisoner hsd volunteer . cd during the world war, had served overseas and had bean discharged from the army while stationed at Comp Bragg, would prevent the po tential juror from giving him a fail and impartial trial. Clayton’s war re cord was Urns reviewed doient ni times during tha afternoon. | Mlsn Iona Lindary, whom Claytor | had returned to tnls city to toe, is: with the prisoner and his coast >1 i while her father, who swore oat ‘.hi , warrant that wna ho ng served on hln i when tbe homicide occurred, oceopi l cd a scut with the attorneys for tV i prosecution, as did the widow of Do paly Slue, who since hit death il ' Janaary has boon remarried. i HENRY FORD GETS MONEY t AWAY FROM NEW YORI New York.
