HAS CONVENTION TO SELECT DELEGATES MUCH POLITICAL TALK AT MKKTING SATURDAY AT DOBSON HATS IN READINESS 8. O. MiMtulre, Frank Whitnkei and R. L. Lovelarr May Toss Derbies in Ring "Pointing with pride" to the Republican achievements and "viewing with alarm" the Demo cratic action, the Surry county G. O. P. convention went off smoothly at Dobson last Satur day afternoon with a good at tendance on hand. C. B. Frank lin of this city, made a further plea that taxes be reduced as he had done in the township con vention here and the essence of his speech seemed to be taken as a party keynote. The convention picked dele gates to the district meet at Greensboro Thursday and to the state convention Friday at Char .'ott'e, the Elkin township dele gates being selected as follows: Attorney Frank Whitaker, J. F. Carter, Mrs. W. W. Whitaker, J. G. Ray and S. O. Maguire with the following alternates: R. L. Lovelace, L. F. Walker, Mrs. David Gough, W. M, Dickerson, and Mrs. S. O. Maguire, Political hats were all but toss ed in the ring at the session and it was heard that S. O. Maguire of ths city will- probably toss his derby into the ring as a candi date for clerk of the court while there was also a great deal of talk to the effect that Attorney Frank H. Whitaker, also of this city was slated to set the nom ination for representative to the state legislature. R. L. Lovelace also was talked of as a possible candidate, possibly as a candi date against Mr. Maguire for clerk of the court but Mr. Love lace remains non-committal. A snag was struck at the meet ing when R. T. Joyce, of Stokes who represented the two countys in the state senate during the last session of the legislature, ap peared and asked that he be sent back to the senate in spite of the age-old custom of giving the office to a Stokes man one term and then alternate the next term with a Surry man. Senator Joyce claims he has some unfin ished hills he deslww to get pas sed into laws and wishes to go back to Raleigh to push his pet measures. Although no actions was taken to his wishes, they Were received coldly because the Surry Republicans had their hearts set On sending W. E. Lin ville of Mt. Airy to the senate.. There was also some tslk that Dr. H. Bernard, of Pllqt Molina tain, who represented this c.duri ty in the lower house at Raleigh last year, might throw his hat into the three-cornered race thus muss up the whole situation. It was pointed out that if both Sur ry men come out fdr senator, the Surry vote would be devided and Joyce run away with the election if his county stood behind him. Attorney W. M. Jaekson was unanimously re-elected as coua ty chairman for the next two years in spite of the fact that Mr. Jackson seemed inclined to see some one else at the steering wheel. The convention failed to instruct the delegates to vote for Duncan of Greensboro, as state chairman and left the delegates free to vote for whom they please. W. W. Hampton, veteran wheel horse of the party presid ed at the session Saturday and blamed the present "hard times or Hoover prosperity" on the Democrats alinged with a few in surgent Republicans and called attention to the fact that the failure to pass the present tariff bill a year earlier had brought a bout a stagnation in business. The present permanent con vention organization was com posed of Mr. Hampton and Mrs. S. O. Magulre and R. A. Inman as secretaries. Speakers during' the meeting were S. O. Maguire, R. L. Lovelace, Berne Franklin of this city and Vestal TayloT, Dr. H. Bernard and A. E; Tilley. MRS FRANK WHITAKKR HORTKBS TO CLUUR i Mrs. Frank Whltaker was hostess at one of the prettiest club meetings of the week when she entertained her Study Club at her home on Circle Court Wednesday afternoon. The love ly home was decorated with ap ple blossoms andtulips. A very interesting program, under the direction of'MrH. John Akins was given, the subject being, "Artists and Poets." Papers were read by Mesdames Akins, Fletch er Harris, Mrs. Marlon Alien and Fred Neaves. During the afternoon a hand somely appointed salad course was served. HOTTEST APRIL DA YON RECORD MERCURY UP TO 94 j. H. THARPK WHO KKKPH TAB ON WKATRKR, RR. MARKS ABOUT KRKAK OF SKANON Last Saturday was perhaps the hottest April day In the memory since August 1928, according to of any person in Elkin and per haps hotter than at any time Mr. J. H. Tharpe, who has been a close observer of the weather in this commnity for the past forty years. The thermometer at Mr. Thaipe's home on last Sat urday noon registered just 94 degrees. The same thermometer which is on the back porch of his home, did not go above 92 any time last year. The torrid period of the last week seems to be general over the whole country, especially in the mid-west where mid-summer temperatures seemed to be gen eral. Older residents have remarked that they have never seen a year when the trees and vegetation came out so faßt as they did the last few days. According to Mr. Tharpe, who made a\rip to Har mony last Thursday the trees there seemed to be about four but upon returning home and in days ahead of the trees here, vestigating vegetatloin here he figured the trees here were in bloom equal to the trees there the day before. Thus he figures that spring shrubbery and vege tation is coming out four days faster than usual because he reckons that trees on the south j side of the Brushy mountains! are about four days ahead of those here in the spring FELDMAN'S Easter Specials FAST COLOR Printed Plaza Pongee Rayfield Prints Fast Printed Broadcloth p a#t co l or y( J wide colors, yd. wide— yd. wide ? r C yd.
