The platform superinduced the wor shipfulness.

Bailey is ru m'n for governor end desires some chang es. There is no promise to repeal any tax legislation, none to change an;: election laws, none to hurt anv'-od or anything It is abbreviat 'd ficat:cn of . the party’s pas* rmd no too lengthy promise to maintair the statu.- quo. Adapts Platform And Quits. The convention closed with adop tion of the platform. Prio:- to that it cliose some delegates. It entertained motions to send Senators Simmons and Overman to New York on the state delegation at large then an them withdrawn. Frank Hampton pulled down Senator Simmon- and Congressman Hammer, who always backstood Senator Overman took the Salisbury senator down. State Chair man John Dawson was nominated by acclamation and then the fun began. It ended with Dawson,.Max Gardner, Governor Morrison and Josephus Dan iels as the men four and Mrs. Palmer Jerman, Miss Mary Henderson. M’" J. G. Fearing and M.S3 Harr;etl M. Berry as the women quartette. On the roll call Gardner poHed 1. 841; Morrison 1,374; Daniels 1.216: j Carr 796; Harris 439 and Bell imy 260. Then Came The Women. Then came the womr. Nat Town send nominated Mrs. Jerman. Max nrdner Mrs. Fearing, Governor Doueh ton, Miss Henderson, Sam Gattis, Miss Berry, Judge Frank Winston, Miss Wave F. Jones and Don Elias Mrs. J. M. Gudger, Jr. During these stormy pciiods Lind say C. Warren, superb parliamentar ian, took the policeman's ciub and ran the convention with supreme skill. Later Hugh G. Chatham carried the load along finely. During the wait for counts Max Gardner was invited down and made a rousing and elo quent speech. The corve.Tion showed its great Warren bias when he took his chair. Max Gardner Speaks. The Gardner speech abounded in good nature over his defeat -four years ago and in kidding the anti-suf fragists today. Every sally of the bit terenders was disastrous. As fixed in its immortal prirc'ples as a malodor in a simoon, the conven tion bestowed upon its women mem bers full representaton on the dele gation at large. It was the most killingly funny episode of a dozen conventions Miss Mary Owen Graham, president of Peace institute and member of the national executive committee, offered the Carter Glass resolution ■ givng women their equal representation. The anti-suffrage stupidity of four years ago broke out and the bitterenders bristled for a fight. Alamance gave them s< furious fright with the first call. Chairman John Dawson ri led that the motion of Miss Graham had prevailed. A rollcall was demanded. Alamance with 34 ayes against an ancient of days made it 34 and 1. The vote see-sawed and Beaufort with ts Lindsay Warren yelled its united vote against the women. When Cleveland came Max Gardner, who went rnwn with the women four years ago came up in resonant voice and made it 51 aye. Never thereafter svai there a fear Counties split, temporized, tergive’ ated, wiggled in an dout, but before the calling was lone, down came the bitter-enders. ‘Get on the bandwagon” came the clarion rote from Sumner Burgwyn. Judge Harry Whedbec, who had sought to_hold the women to two of the eight memberships, bowed, seconded a r otion t i make it unani mous and there was an end without the count. Tribute To Gardner. Max Gardner witli 25 pounds of lost corporation, strode down the aisle to the ninth district delegation and the convention set up a mighty shout. “Fellows, I didn’t stage that,” he winked at the pres? boys as he walk ed by them, tl was a great tribute to a man who has been quiet four years. Gardner a few minutes before had stood up in the ninth district conven tion and made proclamation against the practice of sending, without rea son whatever, two United States sen ators to every national convention. The former candidate for goyernor stood to break up that policy. The word went round and everybody was glad of it.

The political pot, refuses to boil this year in Cleveland County. To date only one candidate has made pub lic announcement and this man is John P. Mull who is running for coun ty recorder and auditor to succeed B. T. Falls who announced that he would not be a candidate to succeed himself. It looks now as If Mr. Mull will be the only candidate for this position. Sheriff Hugh Logan about whom there has been some reports that he might not be a candidate to succeed himself, puts an end to any such ru mors by declaring that he is a candi date. Ex-Sheriff D. D. Wilkins, how ever, may oppose him for this office. Mr. Wilkins says he has had volun teer suggestions from all parts of the county and while he has not made up his mind that he will run, he is giv ing the matter careful consideration. The term of all county commission ers expires this year but only one race has been rumored and that is that of Mr. A. M. Hamrick of Shelby might oppose Mr. George Peeler. It is understood that Mr. Hamrick is being urged very strongly to make the race. R. L. Weathers, registrar of deeds, Mrs. Mary Lou Yarboro, county treas urer, C. A. Burrus county solcitor, A. M. Lovelace surveyor and T. C. Eskridge coroner are ail understood to be candidates to succeed them selves. George P. Webb, clerk of court was elected for four years and has two years yet to serve. No opposition has been heard of, so,unless khe situation changes from the way it looks at present, these candidates will be de clared the nominees without their names having to go on the primary ballot on June 7th. Just who will go to legislature from Cleveland remains to be seen. No name has been sug gested so far as The Star can learn and the time is drawing near when candidates must file notice with the county board of elections of which John M. Mull is chairman If is under stood that candidates must file no tice of candidacy two weeks before the primary on June 7th and unless there is opposition, each single candi date is declared the nominee without the name going on the ballot, so if there is no contest for any of the county offices the June primary will be a tame affair. The span of life is constantly in creasing in spite of all the brainless automobile drivers can do. It appears that, in the mater of re parations. Germany’s will is a won’t. —■'Washington Post.

Sixty-three men and women gath ered around the T. P. A. banquet board,at Cleveland Fixings ho'tel Fri dap night when Post O, held their an nual feed which was postponed from the Chistmas holidays became there were >o many "other social and busi ness affairs during the holidays, the. traveling men did not see a time and place suitable. The officers, John S. McKnight president and F. O. seere iaSy-lreasurer ltd worked in con junction with Manager Vanstory of Cleveland Springs hotel and arranged a most enjoyable program to follow the splendid menu. The local post has 54 members, most of whom are trav eling men, hut some are wholesale merchants, brokers and others who are identified with the profession. D. Z. Newton made a twenty min ute speech on the traveling man, sav ing that because he is a moving man he gathers no moss but is active, cheerful and ready to serve others. The traveling man believes in im provement because he is a moving man and comes in contact with pro gress everywhere. Mr. Newton de clared there are two kinds'of travel ing men, the one who sells people what they want and the other who teaches them to want something else. The one adopts the "policy to stick to the tried ar.d true while the other takes the position that while the old things are all right, there is always room for improvement and by this method they represent the true spirit of progress Mr. Newton ably delin eated the spirit of the traveling man and his speech was highly enjoyed. Mr. J. 11. Quinn, postmaster gave a very instructive talk on the waste in postal service and how the patrons can wrap and address letters and parkuges to save the postal employes unnecessary work and worry and ex pedite the mail service. The fun-maker of the evening was Dr. J. R. Osborne who gave a num ber of negro dialect readings in his characteristic style, these humorous readings enlivening the spirit of the occasion. When the visitors arrived they sang “America" which was fol lowed by an invocation Ry Rev. W. A. Murray, pastor of the Presbyterian cfcurch. Misses Clark and Griffin of the Shelby school faculty gave a num ber of enjoyable musical selections and the Cleveland Springs orchestra w’hich has just arrived for the season added much to the program. The menu was as follows: Grape fruit cocktail, celery, olives, chilled cucumbers, baked Spanish mackerel, Hollandaise sauce, potatoes julienne, broiled milk fed chicken on toast, creamed potatoes, asparagus tips, lettuce and tomato salad, Ne politian ico cream, pound cake, coffee. Three Good Pictures On Princess Program i The Princess offers three good pic ; tures on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this week. “Lights Out’' which shows today is a picture within a picture because it is a story of the motion picture studios, a photoplay version of a stage success.by the same name. A unique duel is fought be tween two excellent swordsmen, one armed with a club, the other a deli cate steel rapier carried in a cane. “Wolf Tracks” on Wednesday has Jack Hoxie as the star. There are few stars whose life has been more crowd ed with romance and adventure than Jack Hoxie and certainly fewer still can boast of playing parts which re enact actual happenings of their liv es. It is a story of adventure. “The Dancer Of The Nile” on Thursday is a special fature. It :s a passionate love story of the days of King Tut with an all star cast. In the burning sands of the desert two hearts fused together only to suffer awful torment where love was a jest and vice a virtue. The story as a screen production, is of unusual interest at this time due to the untimely death of the late Lord Carnarvon following his discovery of the tomb of “Tut” in the Valley of Kings et Luxor. Over fifteen hundred horses and four thousands of people are used in the photo-production. MR.

Pitt Beam, the •lid's latest benedict, but the- speech wan not fo thcorning although’ merri ment reigned. Dr. Daniels Speaks. Dr. Daniels, introduced hv Earl" Hamrick as past master in entertain ng any gatherng, equalled his intro duction and broke out like measles or April showers at the outset with enough witticisms as to almost strike .vith apoplexy such Kwanians as. Sam Lattimore, Charlie Young, Bill Mc CovJ and Will Arey. Each staten ent and every declaration was illustrated vAh a quip that carried his point as well as laughing his audience into an rproar. With his hearers wondering at never-ending fountain of his wit, Dr. Daniels slipped into a Rerious dis cussion ojj life and how a man lives it. and for a time had every hearer vis icn ng the son -of his mother’s dreams Taking as his subject "Buildere for the Future,” the speaker paid a glow ing tribute to such co-operative or ganizations as Kiwanis. “In my mind the Kiwanian, a real builder should be cheerful, fathful, a team-worker, honest and with a vision of the fu ture,” he declared, and on the«e paints he based his appeal for the “man that should be.” The worth of cheerfulness in life is not to be esti mated, he said, and then he attempted value-a smile, the joy-producer that comes many times easier than the frovyn. “A smile is worth 820,000, the courts have valued it at that fig ure and it is not my place to contra dict it. Some of them are worth more and there is at least one man pres ent who will agree with me—the young benedict down the table vith the bottle of Tanlac.” Faithfulness and teamwork should be over-present characteristics of the real builder. ‘ Find the job you like and stick to it for the real reward is in achievem *1 and in all there must be co-operation Its the team work that counts, not the single units, but what they make together—the everlasting team that pulls together.” In defining honesty in business and bulling for the fu ure the speaker reached his best. "Religion in life will come with re ligion in business, and the day of good old-fashioned honesty in busi ness is not far away. It is far better, more comforting and the greatest of all to lose in playing the game square than win as a cheat.” “The father of every man here, be he living or dead, had a dream—a dream of success and what he hoped and longed to attain, but, men, your fathers for the most part failed to realize that dream that lies in every mans breast, the gold that moves the world and accomplishes great deeds, for their opportunities were limited! In you these dreams may be realized, the'r son may be what they might have been had their fathers paved the opportunities for success that your fathers built for you. Your mothers, men, are judged and measured by you. \\ lien you glorously take the gover nors chair you are her son, and if it is the hopeless step to the electric, chair you are still her son. Are you building, Hi womans, tier, your child ren, the children of the future, may attain what you strive for? Are ycu looking into the future for others, the greatest characteristic >f all?” In conclusion the speaker made a striking and touching appeal for the children of today, for their education and betterment—the building that is nobler and greater than that of busi ness and industry.
