case, and by the verdict I do not
mean to reflect upon any of the
parties, but by the prosecuting wit
nesses' own testimony, there is only
one theory that the State could get
along on, as I see it, and that is that
she was put in such fear ' by the
threat of the defendant to draw a
gun on her that she submitted to
him. There is not sufficient evi
dence to show that she was put in
such fear that there is not sufficient
evidence to show that the resistence
was the most that could have been
exerted. As a consequence of that,
the court finds no probable cause in
this case."

Wages earned in future employment
before she reaches 65, will be added
to her wage record from time to
time as such wages are earned.
Question: I am a school teaaher
and I am about to take a position as
a counsellor in a privately operated
summer camp. Do I come under the
Social Security Act?
Answer: You do. You must get
a Social Security Account Number.
Application should be made on Form
SS-B. This can be got at any post
office or at your nearest Social Se
curity Board office. Keep your ac
count card but give your number to
your employer. He will need the
number to make required reports to
the Treasury Department, which is
charged with collecting the taxes
levied under the Social Security Act.
Do , not. lose your card. Memorize

a period of three years, and ordered
to' report to tnis court the first Tues.
day in January and the first Tuesday
in July every year until the three
years have expired, unless subse
quently placed in the custody of the
probation officer. He is ordered to
pay the cost in this case, including
the sum of $60.60 to the use Of W
T. Brown, for doctor's bill and for
loss of time. Upon violation of the
terms of this probation by motion erf
the court or by motion of the solici
tor, capius to issue and the defendant
to serve a term of six months on the
roads."
The cost in addition to the $60.50
mentioned was in the neighborhood
$30.00, making a total of around
$90.00 to be paid.
The defendant was given until Jan
uary 4 to pay a portion of the
amount but was required to pay thw
doctor s bill and the court costs im
mediately. In dismissing the case against
Harry Williford, Judge Oakey said:
"I do know, as a matter of fact, that
gambling has been carried on there
in a crooked and dangerous manner,
and I suggest to the management of
that hotel that they be careful as to
whom rooms are let in the future,
and to see to it that no such con
duct as has come before this court
today occurs. Certainly in the in
terest of peace in Hertford and the
good name of the hotel, there should
be no repetition of this."

The library was uegun when books

Peaslee, of Gonic, New Hampshire.
Mr. Peaslee is a Friends minister.
He visits frequently in the communi

R. J. White. He has often preached
at the Up-Kiver Friends Church, of
which Mrs. R. J. White is the pas
tor, and the affection with which he
regards the people of the community,
and his desire to spread knowledge
among them has found expression in
placing within their reach good
books.
The library has grown, through
repeated donations of Mr. Peaslee,
until there are more than 1,500 vol

Last week Mr. Peaslee wrote that
he had deposited in bank fifty dol

more books. A committee composed
of the following, will make the se
lections: Mrs. Eunice Winslow and
Miss Mabel Lane, who will select

Alec Stallings, who will select books
for children, and Mrs. Elizabeth

PLANS OUTLINED FOR
"HERTFORD COUNCIL"
(Continued from Page Two)
mittee of seven; that the committee
shall be hand-picked, two to be ap
pointed by the Mayor; two to be ap
pointed by the Rotary Club, and the
other three to be chosen by the four
originally appointed. It was further
suggested that Mrs. Mattie Lister
White serve as secretary.
It was set forth that the job of
these seven men is to bring up in
their monthly meetings anything
and everything of any nature what
soever that any member feels would
lead to the betterment of life in the
Town of Hertford, and that the
matter be thrashed out, and that
whatever the committee shall decide
in reference thereto shall be brought
before the council, presenting a de
finite, concrete and clean-cut propo
sition.
It was pointed out that the com
mittee might sometimes be split,
with four voting against three, per
haps, at such times a minority or a
majority report to be submitted.
Jt was suggested that the main
group, which it was said should not
number less than fifty men, are to
meet quarterly, holding only four
regular meetings annually, but sub
ject to be called at a meeting at any
time there is anything of sufficient
importance.
The annual dues were set at one
dollar per year, the idea being that
no one should be allowed to feel that
he could not join because he was not
able. Not the business men alone
are to be represented in the organi
zation, but men of every economic
G'.rata in the town, the employee as
well as the employer.
A question put by the chair as to
whether the organization was to be
made up of men alone or whether or
not women would also be admitted
answered by Mr. II
Jillson, whT'l-tft- 'that 'l"rttyslS)
point he would 4ike to -go into aTT
huddle withe "other
members of
the committee but that since he was
making the report for the committee
he would say it had been decided that
the organization should be made up
only of men. iS.
Walter H. Oakey, Jr., row i
that he felt that the wont
town aireaay naa tneir organ:, .joiis,
in which they were doinsrl&oQd work.i
nnd that ha folf tho mn !..
. uutm. m n
something also,, and that one reasmt
why the committee had felt women
should not be admitted to member
ship was because if they were they
would soon be doing about nine
tenths of the work. Speaking for
the committee, Mr. Jillson stated
that women would always be wel
comed to the meetings, that individ
uals or representatives of any or
ganization, whether civic or reli
gious, would be welcomed at all
times and their suggestions or prob
lems would be given careful consid
eration. Those who took the floor to ex
press approval of the plan included
C. P. Morris, V. N. Darden, Charles
E. Johnson and W. H. Hardcastle.
Chairman Whedbee was very com
pimentary in his remarks, connratu
lating the committee on the honest
ness, straightforwardness and can
didness of the report, and said it
was one of the best reports from a
committee he had ever heard, and
lhat it showed somebody had been
giving the matter a lot of considera
tion. The Hertford Rotary Club, at its
meeting on Tuesday night, named L.
W. Anderson and J. G. Roberson as
the club's appointees. Simultaneous
ly, Mayor Whedbee named Rev. E. T.
Jillson and A. W. Hefren. At a
meeting held by these four on Wed
nesday morning three others were
named as follows: Dr. John Zach
ery, W. T. Elliott and Mayor Silas
M. Whedbee.
A meetinc of the committee will
be held shortly.
