Murdered Man To Watch Him “Kick” Eastland, Texas.—For the second time in a little more than a year. Clyde Thompson heard an East land county jury pronounce the death sentence upon him for his patt i.i the slaying of Lucian Shook, a 27 year-old oil field worker. A witness testified that Thomp son told him before the murder he was going ic phoo* Shook "to set him kick.” The second death verdict was re turned by a jury which received the case late Thursday after listening to four days of testimony and argu ments. A new trial was granted to Thompson by the court of criminal appeals, .which disproved the find ing of the jury in his first trial in October of 1928. Mary Lou Hart, a Los Angeles baby, was recently photograofled with her mother, her two grand mothers and her four great-grand - mothers. * ill ADMINISTRATOR S NOTICE.

REND JILSO USED FOR WEDDINGS IIS WELL IS DIVORCES Brides And Grooms Now Running Rare With Divorce Couples For Honors. Reno, Nav.—Nevada has an in crease in marriages in 1928 amount ing to 53.8 per 1,000 of population, compared to the nationwide rate of 9.85, according to department of commerce statistics just released, but this is not an indication that large numbers of those who come to Rfeno for divorce become recon verted to the married state while in Reno, and leave again as briae and groom Gyp The “Gin" ^aw. Some three years ago California’: legislature passed what is known es the “gin marriage license law.” It provided that three days ust transpire between the time an ap plication for a marriage llceme is made and the time it is issued This meant that an application made on Monday, with three days transpir ing, made it issuable on Friday. That was too long a time to w'a'\ so Reno, became a Mecca for bride and grooms Just as it has been for years a Mecca for spouses seeking divorce. In Reno population, 1920, | about 12,000 the average marriage licenses per month used to oe be tween forty and sixty. Then Cali fornia passed its notification law and the Californians began coming over the Sierra. It Jumped to one hundred, then two hundred, and or. up and during the summer when the highways over the mountains arc open the record runs past ths five hundred mark. In August of this year the total marriage licenses issued in this city «lone was just two less than six hundred. Drops In Winter. It drops during the winter months but again climbs as soon as the roads are open. Ot course there are quite a Tew of those who come here for divorce >o re-marry here. Many of them have arranged their wedding plans even before they have consulted an altoi ney here relative to a divorce, and in many instances, while the woman is upstairs in court telling her dory of desertion or failure to provide, the new husband Is in the clerk s office obtaining the license. There also are many who coma here with the only view of getting rid of a spouse. They become lone some. make the acquaintance of one of the opposite sex, tell each other the sad story of the marital troubles, gain each other's sympathy, and when they leave, free from their original spouses, they are married to each other. 1 Santa Coming.

An Armistice Day Prayer. Prom The Watertown Times. The Archbishop of Canterbury wrote n prayer which was cabled throughout the British Empire as suitable to be uttered during ttv two-minute Armistice Day medita tion at 11 o’clock yesterday morn ing. Here it Is: “In remembrance of those who made the great sacrifice, keep ut steadfast, keep us from falling back, and gives us peace in our time, O Lord.” Tills may well be accepted at the spirit of the British Empire at the present time. It was widely com mented on in London as reflecting both the attitude of the govern ment and the feeling of individuals* and of all the British civilization in its aspiration for peace. WHOSE FAULT IS IT? Have You Any Excuse Other Than That You Didn’t Know? Here Then Is The Explanation—The Cause And How To Overcom; It. Half the times when yon are sick it Is your fault. Fully one-half or your every day sickness Is preventable by atten'':n to simple natural laws. Constipation Is the cause of mote illness than any* other one thing. It is not only the working people who neglect themselves bui the rich also. They sometimes put 6ft answering the call of nature because it interferes with social duties, cial duties. Rich or poor when you violate the laws of nature you must nay. Food is received into the stomach and partially digested but it Is not taken into the blood until it passes into the intestines. Through the walls of the intes tines are millions of hairs, (too MR. S. E. SSIGLAR. small to be seen without a micro scope. These hollow hairs ar? tubes through which the goodness ot the food must past to be carried through out the body. / .♦ If the Inner walls of the intestin es are coated with slimy mucus matter, or with dried fecal waste then it is impossible to get the nourishment from the food though the hair-like tubes. A person may eat a plenty and yet be starving. What is needed is to thoroughly cleanse the intestines, Almost ary laxative may pass through the soi. waste matter in the center of the intestines but they quickly are clos ed up again. It is not until the waste matter is loosened and removed rom the sides that good health commenc es Sometimes it is a week or two after the bowels seem to be open enough when old dried waste mat ter that has been clinging in the folds let go and people sometimes pass a stringy rubbery mucus r.nd sometime < what looks like great lumps of chewed meat. In taking the great natural laxa tive tonic made from herbs and called Herb Extract it is advisable to take it regularly to help nature form a regular daily bowel * abit and it is felt that the intestines are thoroughly cleansed. Then grad ually reduce the dose to as small as possible and take only as necessary Read the experience of Mr. S. E. Ziglar. well-known resident ot Ru ral Hall, N.

TEACHER INCREASE IN STATE LIGHT Raleigh.—There were "1,381 teachers employed In the ele mentary and secondary public schools of the state during the school year 1928-29, or just 155 more than were employed the preceding year, according to the current Issue of State School Facts, official publication of the state superintendent of public instruction. Of the total teach ers employed this past year 18. 201 taught in white schools and 6,180 taught in colored school*. A further analysis of these fig ures made by School Facts shows that the number of rural white teachers for 1928-29 was actually less thajn the number employed in 1927-28, and this fact, the publica tion points out, accounts for the smaller than usual increase in total teachers employed this past school year. That a smaller number ot iurr.1 white teachers were needed during 1928-29 than were employed in 1927-28, and this fact, the publica tion points out, accounts for the smaller than usual increase in to tal teachers employed this pa:>t school year. That a smaller number of rural white, teachers were peeded daring 1928-29 man were employed in 1927-28 Is due, according to School Facts, to the consolidation of rural white schools. In 1919-20 there were 2,513 one-teacher white schools, whereas in 1927-28 there were 1,075 such schools. In 1921-22 there were 326 consolidated schools, whereas in 1927-28 there were 812. As this process of-elimination of small schools and building up of larger schools has been going on, the rate of increase in number of teachers has decreased. The total number of teachers employed during 1919-20 represented an increase of nearly 12 per cent over the num ber in 1918-19. The percentage has decreased from year to year until the total number of teachers em ployed last year showed an increase of only .69 of one per cent over 1927-28. “It appears, therefore,” the paper sums up, "that any increase in number of teachers from now on will be simply to take care of in creased enrollment. This is es pecially true among white school?, where consolidation has already reached an advanced stage.” Meeting B. Y. P. U. Zoar Section Held y. VV. A. Gives Box Tarty.

Kirk patrlck, Charlotte attorney, In a statement issued here, has announce ed he will be a candidate for gov ernor in 1936 subject to the Demo cratic primary. His statement reviewed his past connection with the Democratic party and said he first campaigned for it in the “white supremacy” campaign of 1900 as a youth of 23. Colonel Kirkpatrick was a leader in the good roads movement whicn led to North Carolina’s extensive highway improvement. • Utilizing The Chinese Wall. From The Wall Street Journal. At the present time, especially in New York, the development ol elevated motor highways is becom ing almost a necessity. Millions of dollars will be spent on the West Side elevated boulevard now under construction. In this respect the Chinese have a big start on our metropolis, at least in the city of Nanking. The ancient and famous wall around the city is to be con verted into an elevated highway for motor traffic. When completed it will be 22 miles long and average about 25 feet in width. Barring in terference by the current Chinese revolutions, a city of one of the oldest countries in the world will have a longer elevated boulevard than any in the United States. “BROWNbilt FOOTLITES” Shine Again Friday Those who listened in on “BROWN bllt FOOTLITES” over Static#: WVT NC and associated stations last Fri day are eagerly awaiting the next broadcast which will go on over the same stations again this Friday at 8 o’clock.
