C., SEPTEMBER 1,1932 SUBSCRIPTION PRICE.: ONE I EAR 11.50 SIX MONTHS 75 CENTS Every Thursday The County Sunday School Convention; Large Attendance The Rockingham County Sun day School Association, under the auspices of the North Caro lina Sunday School Association, met at Calvary Baptist Church on Wednesday, August 24th, in a morning and an afternoon ses sion with an evening meeting devoted to young people’s work. Inspirational addresses were given by Miss Daisy Magee, Young People’s Division, and Rev. Shuford Peeler, General Secretary of the North Carolina Sunday School Association. There were also some splendid addresses by local speakers. The special music was enjoyed very much, which was given at each session. Much interest was snown ini the work and the different town ships were congratulated on the good work done during the year. We are informed that Rocking ham county is now up with the leading counties of the State in Sunday school work. Even bet ter progress is expected during the coming year. There was a good representa tion from the various Sunday schools throughout the county and all townships were repre sented except one. The general attendance was good. jUmph ^vas served on the church lawn, which was enjoy ed by all. The following resolutions were adopted: “The Rockingham County Sun day School Convention assem bled this day at Calvary Church desires to express its sorrow and grief at the death of Broth er Louis W. Clark, of Spray, one of the outstanding leaders of our organization. For nearly thirty years he had with enthu siasm and earnestness freely givgn his services to the Sun day school cause in this St^te, and when he died hip was chair man of our State Executive Copimittee. Ife kept the faith. dijd lqvpd by ail of those whp knew him. By his own ef forts, by his genius, by his in dustry, by his integrity, he won success in the business world, but through it all he found time in which he helped others find and appreciate the spiritual values of life. He had a tender,! geptje, generous hpart, a pleas ing smile, a warm grasp qf the hand that w°n and held friends, li^urteous aud kind, bp was also persistent in purpose and action in doing the right. He was pos sessea oi rare judgment ana great judgment and great good sense and was a safe counselor; Iji honor imyrggub{e, in sim plicity subliifio. Our organiza tion has indeed lost a loyal, faithful friend, and in his mem ory, recalling his uqbijity of ejiarficter, we dp hereby re solve: first, that the North Carolina Sunday School Qrgan iaation has lost a valued offic er, one that will be deeply miss ed at our meetings. Second, that we do hereby express pur sin cere sympathy to pis family in {hip dark hour. Third, that our secretary bo instructed to re gerd these resolutions in our minutes, send a copy to our State President so that the same may be read at our next State meeting, and a copy be sent to tho yyidow of our deceased brother. ‘ “Adopted by Rockingham County Sunday School Associa tion this August 24th, 1932.” 'pbe Wentworth Township president b^vipg 'resigned, N. p.‘ Rend was elected as presi dent Qf the Wentworth Town ship organisation.

Will Have Food If Little Cash — The concerted effort made this summer by home demon-j stration club women and home agents will assure the vast ma-j jority of rural people in North | Carolina a supply of canned food this winter even though the amount of cash may be lit tle. “As a result of the planned campaign for canning put on byj the home demonstration club members of North Carolina last; year, there were 3,190,000 con tainers filled by farm women,” says Miss Pauline Smith, dis trict home agent of the State j College Extension Service. “At a conservative estimate, the value of this material amounted to $638,013,40. This proved that a penny saved is a penny earn ed. This year, the greatest concerted effort for canning since the World War has been put on in this State. Many are traveling via the garden-can ning route. Every dollar of the family living that comes i from the garden and orchard is just so much added to the fam ily income and leaves the actual cash for other things. Canning has become a bread and butter; necessity in thousands of; homes.” Miss Smith says a newer j knowledge of nutrition has caus ed rural housewives to learn of' the body’s needs for iron, phos-j phorus, lime, cellulose and vit amins* and, home canning is the ! best means of providing a suf-| ficient supply of these. Of course, they must be supple mented by such fresh vegeta bles as are available from the winter garden and from the sup j ply of stored fruits and vegeta-) bles Blany farm women are learn-, j iijg to can the more difficult, non-acid vegetables this year by means of the pressure eah ner, The use of steam pres sure is enabling them to can a supply of peas, beans and corn, not only safely but quickly, and with a saving in fuel,.Jab^r and time. Miss Smith urges the continuing of the canning pro gram until the peeds iff the, fam ily toi; this winter are met. McCulloch Comes To Rockingham W. W. MuCulloch, teacher of agriculture at the Sedge Garden Consolidated School aud \vho | conducted work among the j adults of the district, has ac-i cepted a similar position with the Rockingham public school^. He has moved to Stonevijle and will, divide time between the Stonevjljo and Madison dia? triots, Mr. McCulloch, who was here on business Monday, expressed his regret at leaving Forsyth and said he hoped a way could be provided wherein the agri cultural courses could be offer ed in the district schools here next year*. The local authorities cut out the agricultural work on the grounds that revenues were shrinking. Mr. McCulloch’s sal ary was paid in part by the fed government and in part by the state, leaving only a portion to be met by the county system or district.—Winston-Salem Sen tinel. Through Vacating” For the past month two of our ministers have been enjoy ing their vacations, but this is over now and Sunday morning will them ip thpif respe^ tive pulpits, with morning and evening services. They are Rev. Henry Willis, pastor of the: Presbyterian flock, and Q. j E. Ward, pastor of the baptist flock. Don’t forget that both will hold services Sunday morn- i ing and eyphihg.

Web-j ster. Hopkins Murder Remains Unsolved The Hopkins murder case hangs in thin air, Rockingham county officers report no sig nificant development in the mysterious murder of Miss Jen nie Hopkins, Fairgrove church leader and well-to-do spinster. Deputy Sheriff Jack M.Hopkins, who is working on the case, is wading through a morass of in tangible half-clues, but is car rying on a thorough and unflag ging investigation. A blood stained undergarment, found near the house,and a stocking of the victim, also stained and ap parently having been used eith er as a gag or a means of strang ling the elderly woman, found in the murder room, are the most material discoveries yet made in connection with the crime. John M. “Ccotty” Smith, alias John Godfrey, a shiftless and nomadic Scotchman, arrested as suspect in the matter, is still being held, though officers indi cated he might be released soon owing to the present lack of definite evidence. “Scotty” has secured- legal counsel in the person of P. T. Stiers, local at torney. A preliminary hearing on the matter has been postpon ed from two occasions. No time has been set since this hearing was continued Saturday, “Scotty” earnestly declare his innocence and insists that he was on the murdered wo man’s property from time to time only upon agreement with her that he act as a watchman over the place. He was taken from his ce|l in the city jail here last week and carried to the scene of the slaying. He talked freely to officers and led them to various spots where he had slept. True to the tradition of the vagabond all he required apparently for a “cpuch” on which to pass the night was a pipes largp enough to cufl up. Finger prints tpjten about the Hopkins house were too in distinct to reveaj anything. Ru mors have been traced and test ed, every waif and stray of in formation has been followed and many alleys have proved blind. Deputy Hopkins states, however, that there is still much of the field unbroken, and thpt work now being carried on may at pny momept result in a start ling denoument.—Reidsville Re view, 28|th, Democrats Counting On Gains In House New Yorlf, Ayg. 2i>—An ex pectation that the Democrats wilt increase the,ir house ma jority in the next Congress from 10 to 5fl|'py ii, \vaa voiced to night by Pppresphthtive Jfoseph W.

As head of the Democratic congressional campaign commit tee, he conferred with those di recting the party’s ballot-drive at national headquarters, where he gave out his statement. ^e based his prediction, he s,ai4 “op my personal contacts and by correspondence with Democratic nominees for Con gress.” From 150 of these candidates, he said, he had received opti mistic letters "Theae new Democratic mem bers,’’ he continued, “are in the main, coming from eastern, New England, ipi$d}e western $nd western States “,Thc very largely increased support for Democratic con gressional nominees indicates the people of the sections nam ed are dissatisfied with the ‘do nothing’ policies of the Hoover administration,” JJia O^ri state.

Three departments thus far have instructed their dele gates to the national convention at Porland, Ore., to vote against immediate payment. On the basis of voting strength at last year’s national convention which opposed immediate payment after a direct appeal from President Hoover, the total so far stands 1,063 for immediate payment and 61 against. The total vote in the 1931 convention was 1,415. A majority vote will govern. The departments on record as favoring immediate pay ment are: Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Loutsi ana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Montana, Minne sota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Caitdina, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Pureto Rico, Rhode Island, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, Utah, Michigan, Tennessee and New Hampshire. The three departments opposing immediate payment at their conventions were Florida, South Carolina and Ne braska. The seven departments which have taken no action on the issue are Alabama, Delaware,* Georgia, Maine, Vermont, Panama and Wyoming. Several others have yet to hold their conventions, Arizona and Virginia departments qualified their re quests to have payments made as soon as the federal gov ernment. is able. Others favored immediate payment. The South Dakota department also voted in favor, but submitted the question to a state legion referendum. Headquarters has information the vote is going for immediate payment. Departments which criticized eviction of the bonus seeking veterans from Washington were: Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, New Mexico, Ohio, Illinois, Texas and Mary land. New York defeated a similar resolution. The McCollum Clan Assembled Sunday The McCollum clan, and they are legion, assembled at Pleas antville Church Sunday for their annual reunion. It was an ideal day, though rather warm, but that did not keep a large number of relatives and friends from attending this an nual affair. A short religious service was conducted by El der Trent in the churh before the sumptuous repast was serv ed. Judge Ira Humphrey also made a talk, and informed the clan that he was now businly en j gaged in compiling a history of ] this family,that has played such | a prominent part in the making of 'Rockingham hiptory. But that spacious table that was spread ip the church yard! Talk i about your good things to eat, I why they had everything that j could tickle the palate and an j abundance of it. That the Mc j Collums “live at home and ! board at the same place,” was | amply demonstrated on this oc casion. Work Of Thieves; Depleted A Store | Thieves were busy in this section Thursday night. They I visited B. R. Wall’s smoke house and relieved him of three mid dlings a(nd two hams. At the home of Mrs. Loftis near town they made a raid on her chick - en house and relieved hey- of several chickens. Another set of thieves visited the store of Glenn McCollum, about eight j miles east of Madison, and vir tually took all of his wares, a truck being used to carry away ! the goods. There is no clue as j to any of the guilty parties, ! more's the pity. Judge McRae Dead Judge Cameron McRae died suddenly at the home of hie sis ter in Fayetteville Sunday af ternoon, while on a visit to her. He resided in Asheville. Judge | McRae was scheduled to open court at Mocksville, Bavins j coupty seat, Monday morning. 1 He was a special judge. The Carter Reunion Next Sunday at Shiloah Church the Carter clan will hold their rennion, and the good housewives are already making | preparations for this big affair. Large crowds always attend j this reunion and there are al ways plenty of good things to eat. A Son Born, to Mr. and Mrs. Harry Martin, Saturday morning, a son. Read The Messenger ads. A Correction; Now On The Job Last week we stated that the bids on both road projects for ; this end of the county had been turned down, but were partly in error—only one ojTthe bids was • turned down, and that is for the new road leading to Wentworth. The other project, that connect ing link on the Madison-Greens ! borp road, something over two miles, was let, and the engin eers are now on the job. Within the next day or so, the contrac tors will be also on the job with a force of hands. We learn that there was a mis understanding on the part of the bidders for the Wentworth road. They bid on machine work, when as a matter of fact, the stipulation calls for this work to be done by hand, in order to give all the unemploy ed all the work that is to be done—that is the main reason for the letting of all road con tracts'at this time. Stuck Fish Hook Into His Hand William E. Joyce, contractor here, had just returned freon* Dan river early yesterday morn ing where he caught four large suckers and was intent on fry ing them for breakfast, when he stuck the large “drag’' hook with which he caught the fish into his hand about an inch deep, With the heavy barbs on the hook it was impossible to pull it out. A doctor could not be found either in Danbury or Walnut Cove, so the injured man was taken to a Walkertown physician and it required quite a little surgical operation to do the work. Mr. Joyce was made very sick by the injury and fainted twice before getting medical attention.—Danbury Re porter. Tobacco Prices Are Increasing The tobacco news from the border markets these days is very encouraging, and the prices continue to slowly in crease, having reached the high est average for the past two seasons. The dry weather in the old belt has curtailed an aK ready curtailed crop, and it is not now believed that a fifty per cent crop will be produced this season. Probably that is the reason for the advanced prices. Broke Shoulder Blade Miss Dorothy Hughes had the misfortune of falling Wednes day of last week and breaking a bone in her right shoulder. It will be recalled that about one year ago, she suffered a broken bone in the Bame should er. She is getting on all right. *********** * STONEVILLE * *********** Misses Nancy Jane Poole, Frances Poole and Fan Seales were hostesses at a delightful dance and bridge party Friday night, honoring their guests, Miss Kate Sue Taylor of Win ston-Salem, guest of Miss Fran ces Poole, and Misses Nancy Shelton of Lynchburg, and Sue Tinsley of Roanoke, guests of Mi^s Fan Scales.
