We hive no idea how the ^tate appropriated the three and a quarter million dollars among the counties, but upon popula tion basis we guess, and Hoke not having a large population re ceived only a little over seven thousand dollars, Robeson $84,000 or twelve times as much. Suits have been started to annul that apportionment, it’s so unequal. % Raeford Kiwanis Club mem bers and several invited friends partook of a delighttul luncheon with the Red Springs Lions on last Thursday evening, and put over a program tl]>t would have been creditable on any occasion Three quartets featured the evening’s program.

Charges of laxity in contr#{iir ” prisoners were made by grand jury in its report to Judged Barnhill at the last term of Sto- perior Court, The grand jurors also demanded the discharge of' Jailor C.

So far the alieiiAi has not discharged his jailer, and it is generally understood that he will not, unless somethiiv further is proven against him.
