There is a quality in Royal Bak
ing Powder, coming" from the purity
" , and wholesomeness of its ingre
dients, which promotes digestion.
Food raised by it will not distress.
This peculiarity of Royal has been
noted by hygienists and physicians,
and they accordingly recommend
it m , the preparation of food, espe
cially for those of delicate digestion.

School Closing atWUdwood.
The closing exercises of. Miss Bessie
Willis' school at Wildwood took place
Frldsp night, the S8tb Inat. Miss Bessie
, had arranged e. very beautiful and enter

well as a beautifully decorated home. It
was trimmed with flowers and ever
green i, everything was fixed with great
taste.
The girls were all dressed In white,
with lone sashes of suitable colors for
their drills. Some of the boys had yel
low suits trimmed in white, to act In.
Their motto was, "Education the hope
of oar Country."
' They opened the exercises by singing
the Bed, White and Blue. Miss Bessie

and Miss May McUabe acted well In a
dialogue. Miss Uamle Howell ' acted

Mr. Johnnie McCabe and Albert Tolaon
acted ss a negro preacher In a congregv
tlun of negroee; the former preached a
sermon from tho book of Lnko, and the
latter preached a funeral of a chicken
thief. ' 1
These all deserve special monttoa as
well as the fair drill. Eight beautifully
dressed young ladles came out on the
stage with their fans, and facing the au
dience, and went, tbrongh.au. exercise
wjih their' ' f aus.' ;lTej turned J and

Mr. J. B. Bell famished Basle with
his harp, seconded by lis guitar. Mr.
. Bell played we.lL ".. f hen cams the clos
ing song by the school. "We'll never say
good ftye." .. : ' .
Then Miss Bessie, made some striking
r marks on education and morality, after
she had finished her talk, she called on
some of the school patrons to speak, .
Messrs. T. J. Tolaos) and T. T. Me
Cabe both spoke very eoeonrsging
about education end the necessity of an
' education. . " r -J
Then Mr. T. J. Tolson dismissed the
audience with prayer. We had several
visitors from Newport, Morehead t hy
- and Bogue. ' We hope - they were pot
sorry they ctme. We were glad to have

atmosphere prevented much damage,
The cold wind is unfavorable to the
truck crops. Since Sundsy at noon the
wind has blown at a velocity of from
20 to 82 miles an hour. . ,.;..
