SCHOOLS PROBABLY
NIL OPEN SEPT. 8
Date Tentatively Set For
Beginning of Term In
City and County
Schools of Henderson and Vance
county will open probably on Thurs
day. September 8, for the new term,
it was said today bv E. M. Rollins, i
city-county superintendent. The date !
ia as yet tentative, but will stand un- ;
leas there is reason to change.
The beginning of the term is ex
pected to be on the same plan as
for several years past, in that chll- \
dren will report on Thursday for en- ,
rollment and distribution of book !
lists Then on Friday they will re
turn with their books for the assign- .
Bent of lessons, with actual class 1
room work beginning on the fellow- j
ing Monday.
The opening date applies to the
white schools in the city and the
county and the coloied o»ty schools. '
The colored schools in the county will
start their term a trifle later.
During the summer such repairs to
buildings and property as was ab
solutely necessary have been made, so ,
far as funds were available, but the
pinch of economy has been felt here
aa elsewhere and no work has been
done that was not essential for the
protection and preservation of the pro
perty.
With budget matters about out of
the way, much of the time from now
on will be given to final preparations !
for the start of the new term. Plans '
now are for the operation of the
schools on an eight months basis, as <
was done last year.

If the federal bench was a suitable
place from which to select a dictator,
to bring older out of chaos in the

all the counties in the second, third,
fourth and quite a few of the first
districts. To have representatives in
that great bloc friendly to the exe
cutive, is of primary importance. The
chief concern es the campaign is to
get a good legislature. There are
many very close counties. An unwise
campaign will lose them.
Most governors have the luck to
get their own legislatures, but Gover
nor Cameron Morrison was the bene
ficiary of a queer turn in politics.
The Morrison legislature was com
posed of Gardner partisans. Until the
last 60 days of the 1920 fight nobody
conceded M. Morrison even an out
side chance. The primaries through
the counties nominated Gardner men.
But in mid-war the Gardner people
espoused woman suffrage and that
turned tremendously strong Gardner
counties over to Morrison. When the
nominations were made, the State had
a governor of one mind and a legis
lature of another.
Gardner supporters could have
wrecked the Morrison hopes, but in
stead elected to join in the program
of progress. The result was a General
Assembly which Mr. Morrison regard
ed the best that ever sat. The 1920
campaign after the primaries had
given a grand boost to Mr. Morrison
and he had not a bit of trouble in
leading that group.
Mr. Ehringhaus may face an un
friendly legislature. He lost such
counties as Beaufort, Martin, Pitt,
Hyde, Bertie, Halifax. Warren, Frank
lin, Harnett, Johnson, Wilson, Lenior,
Jones. Duplin. Pender, Hoke. Bladen.
Onslow, Lee, Moore, Montgomery,
Union, Anson, and Scotland when he
should hav swept them. It will take
a good chairman conducting a fine
campaign to harmonize ithe leader
and the led. The great interest in a
State chairman grows out of his
ability to do that.
There is no hostility to next Senator
R. It. Reynolds. But the candidate
for governor, when elected. must
work four years with representatives
from the counties. It is necessary to
carry the counties, much more essen
tial than that a big majority over
the state be rolled up. A governor and
a legislature at loggerheads before
they begin would mean party wreck.
Candidates Reynolds and Ehring
haus will be here this week. For the
reason trat a governor must .wcik
with ciunty representatives and that
a State chairman must work first to
get a big majority in the General As
sembly it Is not believed that Mr.
Reynolds is going to offer any sort
of objection to the Ehringhaus selec
tion for chairman.

FOREIGN WAR VETS
TO ORGANIZE HERE
Meeting Will Be Held At
Court House Friday Night
For Purpose
A meeting is to be held in the court
house here next Friday night at 8
o'clock for the purpose of organizing
a local chapter of the Veterans of
Foreign Wars organization, it was an
nounced today by R. M. Hester. Mr.
Hester has been designated as tem
porary commander of the local unit
until the meeting is held, when a per
manant organization is to be effected,
he said.
At the meeting on Saturday night
a commander, an adjutant and a
quarttermaster are to be selected, to
gether with such other business as
may come before the gathering.
A state organizer from Greensboro
is to come here Friday night to su
pervise the organization of the as
sociation. All veterans of any over
seas war service for the American
government are eligible for member
ship in the chapter, and all such are
invited to attend.
Mr. Hester said that already a num
ber of members had been signed, and
he expects a rpuch larger number to
enroll as charter members at the
meeting at the court house Friday
night. He said the State organizer
advised him that there are at this
time only three counties in North
Carolina without local units of the
Veterans of Foreign Wars, and they
are Vance, Granville and Warrei:
counties. An effort is being made now
to have them join the ranks. Each
will be organized separately. If pos-
sible. .

gram Last Night
,‘Ladies night” was the feature of
the regular meeting of Rotary held

dining rooms of the Croatan club.
Each member was accompanied by a
Rotary Anne either in tne form of

idea was carried out in the form of
a ladies liberty league with various
Annes acting as cnairmen and taking
off on the members of the club.
The meeting was opened in the form
of a toast given by the president, Dr.
J. H. Wheeler, and to which Mrs. I. H.
Hoyle replied. The entire feature pro
gram was in charge of Mrs. W. H.
Fleming, with Mrs. E. F. Rhaw in
charge of the music. Mrs. N. D. Hol
loway, accompanied by Mi's. E. F.
Shaw at the piano, sang two num
bers "Sylvia" and "The Sweetest
Story Ever Told," following which E
G. Glynn sang "Somewhere A Voice
Is Calling" and When You and I Were
Young Maggie.” He was accompanied
at the piano by A. P. Barnes.

State EntWtootogist Gives
Warning That Much Harm
May Be Caused By Weevil
Raleigh, Aug. 3.—( AP)—A warning
that considerable damage may be done
to cotton by the boll weevil during
the present rahiy and cloudy weather
was sounded today by C. H. Brannon,
extension entomologist at N. C. State
College.
Brannon pointed out the recent dry,
hot weather did much to check the
weevil but did not eradicate it.
"The bool weevil is very sensitive to
weather conditions,” he said,. "Dry,
Jiot weather will kill a great number
of grubs l nthe fallen squares lying

"The insect depends largely on
cloudy, damp weather for fast pro
pagation and serious damage. Such
damage can increase at an enormous
rate between now and forest should
conditions be favorable. If the infes
tation demands it, dusting should be
done for protection not only to late
forming squares but aiso to half
grown bolls.”
Brannon has been in the field al
most constantly during the past few
days aiding growers and county
agents with their insect control pro
blem and said he found that the hot
weather of July exercises a high de
gree of weevil control.
