visitors were present. The home was
made bright and attractive with a
profusion of spring flowers.

ing the short devotional and conduct
ing the business session following.
Plans were made for a delegation
from the club to attend the District
meeting in Woodlawn, Northampton
County, early in April.
There was no definite study for the
afternoon. Mrs. .T. K. Plummer, tak
ing the role of “Dear Teacher” con
ducted a review on our entire study
of clothing - , the major project for

hear wliat things in the course had
been most helpful and suggestive to
each member. Mrs. Plummer out
lined the requirements for attaining
the award of merit at the conclusion
of the study on clothing. A Dress
Review to be given by the county
clubs early in the summer will bring
to a close this project study.

ty Inquiry.
Dully niapiitvfc llni-ena.
In the Sir Walter Hotel,
BY C. A. PAUL#.
Raleigh, March 16 —“There is no
doubt in my mind but that the case of
Shropshire and Barnes is a result of
neglest of duty by Mecklenburg pri
son camp officials,” said William Cur
tis Ezell, agent of the State Depart
ment of Public Welfare, as he filed
his report with the department. “I
speak solely for myself, but I've look
ed thoroughly into this thing, and I
am positive that regulations were not
observed as they are prescribed by
prison rules.
Ezell’s report was a summary of the
case to date of Woodrow Shropshire
and Robert Barnes. Negro convict
who had their feet amputated at Cen
tral State Prison as a result of alleg
ed cruel and inhuman treatment while
in solitary confinement in prison camp
413. at Huntersville, near Charlotte.
Ezell’s report declares that much of
the testimony given by prison offi
cials and prisoners is so conflicting
as to be of little value in many in
stances. That the men were suffer
ing from gangrene when brought to
Raleigh has been established as a fact,
but testimony as to the cause of the
disease is conflicting. Shropshire be
lieves that their feet froze during one
of the coldest nights of the year last
January, either while the two men
were chained in an upnghi to Pars
or wnile lying on mattresses in their

PATTERN 9324
Give the girl of the between age a
cape, recommends Marina Martin. It
will enhance those young shoulders of
hers and add grace to her carriage.
The cape of this smart model is simple
enough—but new. It forms a yoke and
sleeve effect, and may he omitted en
tirely for warm weather or for active
sports. Notice the detail sketch. The
dress may he made in a youthful
print with plenty of color or in white
and worn with a hat which has a brim
to complement the shoulder width. If
you wish, the cape may be made in a
contrasting color.
Pattern 9324 may he ordered only in
sizes 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18. Size 14 re

tiny cells. Both Shropshire and Bar
nes declare that they had a fire only
part of the time they were in solitary
confinement, an*' ione at all on the
coldest night.
Ezell cites the failure of Dr. Mc-
Laughlin, prison physician of the
Mecklenburg camp, to file with him a
promised detailed report of his vis
its to the cells of the two men while
they were serving sentences to soli
tary confinement as a result of al
leged insubordination and cursing of
a prison guard. Baines told the leg
islative investigating committee that
he <lid not know why he was placed
"in solitary.” Dr. McLaughlin, ac
cording to prison regulations, was re
quired to visit such prisoners at least
once daily. Baines, Shropshire and
other prisoners declare that he visit
ed them only once and that he did noi
enter their cells on that occasion. The
Ezcell report, compiled with the as
sistance of Judge Wade Williams,
superintendent of public welfare for
Mecklenburg county, says that the
doctor has contradicted himself as to
visits to the men.
A report that Dr. McLaughlin, who
was suspended as a result of the case,
would not be rein ated, regardless of
the outcome of the investigation, could
not be confirmed. J. B. Roach, exe
cutive director of the prison division,
told a reporter for this bureau that
he had no statement to make concern
ing the doctor or any other person in
the case. “All statements,” he said,
