The public school music class, un der the direction of Mrs. Fred Ash- craft, gave an entertainment Frida 1 niirht which was very much enioye Mrs. C. B. Covington has bean right sick the past week. Mr. O. Harrell has been at home with cold for some days. Mr. T. R. Price of Albemarle spent last Wednesday here, the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Boyce Hallman. You've heard the saying "It's good for sore eyes." Well if you have that article now send it over the land. Sore eyes with colds seems to be heard from in many directions. It's "in-flu" now; may it soon be "out flu" (flew). Mrs. Jas. Marsh and children, J. W. Jr. and little Edith, have been con fined to the house tha past week with colds. Among the many visitors in our town Saturday, we were glad to see some of our former townsfolk, viz.: Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Muggins and Mrs. M. K. Lee; also others of Mon roe, namely, Mesdames Tom Lee, Dr. Ashcraft, Ingram and Fred Williams. Mrs. T. E. Sinclair, together with several others fro'ii Hamlet, spent Saturday in Marshville shopping. The Wednesday afternoon book club met with and was delightfully enterta'ned by Mrs. Ed M. Marsh last Wednesday. Punch was served by M.-s. Edwards from a nicely ar ranged stair landing. Two unique contests were given, one a work bas ket guess of articles contained there in. The other, the making of little Easter bonnets, or hats (men, sit up and take notice). Afterwards a salad course with tea and mints was served. March left us in true style, and ver ified the old saying about the lion, etc., you know. After all of its fore noon bluster it seemed at the last to reach out and coolly touch the hand of April, and then another rousing rain and more gusts, as if lothe to let go. Then lo! we enter upon April 1, the time of jokes and frolics. But Marshville scarcely had time for jest or tricks on th;s occasion, as it was Dollar Day here and we all know the magic of that. This time it again set the town a humming and from early morning till after dark all places of business were live and stirring. The way cars were parked at some of our stores indicated "something doing." In fact, all say they were scarcely prepard for serving so many, al though extra help was engaged. The bauliful day too made people feel good, so we think everybody was sat isfied, and know, also, that all went home feeling that Marshville is a good place to trade. Let Monroe and Stouts and so on do the right things, for we are right in their wake. Another thing that added to the interest and crowds of the day was the preliminaries for the county com mencement contests of the various schools which was held here,, this be ing one of group centers. Marshville , won in the high school declaimer's and reciter's contests, The fortunate contestnts were Mr. James Morgan and Margie Marsh respectively.

Those winning here Saturday , will contest at the finals of county commencement in Monroe April 10th. J On the whole everybody was ready " for a day of rest and let us hope , all made use of it in that way and not in raising a dust all over the county. v Commencmetit at Weddingtoa Indus, trial Institute Owing to the fact that the school term has been shortened by almost one month and the need of time for class work, no elaborate preparation in the way of programs has been made for the closing exercises of Weddingtoa Industrial Institute.

MONROE IS IN" THE TOUR OF WAKE FOREST GLEE CLUB Will Be Here the loth With Best Aggregation Yet Sent Out From That College The Wake Forest Glee Club will appear in the school auditorium. April 15th. under the auspices of the Ladies Aid Society. Of the organ'za tion the college paper, Old Gold and Black, has this to say: With probably the best itinerary that a Wake Forest Glee Club has possessed in recent years, and with the most talented personnel that has composed the club lately prepara tions are being made for th ten en gagments that Manager Clyde P. Harris, Jr., has scheduled for the spring trip. According to the customary habit the troupe of music makers repre senting Wake Forest will journey through the western portion of North Carolina this spring, and in addition will meet two engagements on a week-end tour to Henderson and Ox ford. The trip into the west includes eight towns and cities of North Car olina. For the past ten years Dr. Hubart M. Poteat has bent his efforts toward the creation of a College Gree Club and Orchestra, that is capable of ren dering music in professional style. And he has realized his purpose, for there is nothing amateur in this pro duction. The selections that the glee club give are excellent; they are neith er too fantastical nor yet over-abounding in periodic jazz. The ten or twelve selections that are included on the glee club's program are popular, musical, and up-to-date, a mixture of both the classical and present-day popular airs. As to the orchestra that Dr. Poteat has produced this session there is no doubt about it being the best ot re cent years. The material available for an orchestra is better this year and posses more real instrumental ability than in. late years. The or chestra is composed of two saxo phones two viol ns. two cornets, two trombones, piano, r rench horn, a clar inet, and drums. BIG POST OFFICE ROW IS ON AT MARSHVILLE ClmrgeH lYei'erreil Auainst IVslinas. tor likens Affidavits Itenying the Charges Being Filed One of the biggest postofflce rows ever pulled off is being witnessed at Marshville. It Is reported that mem bers of the administration party have filed charges against the present int cumbent, Mr. J. L. Bivens. The office at Marshville is of the third class and pays between $1,500 and $2,000. The present postmaster was appointed a little more tlim two years ago under the Wilson adminis tration and his commission will ex. pice ia the winter or spring of 1924. The report Is that Mr. Bivens is charged with porting on the Grifnn Uru Company's window on the moruinii of the election in the fall ot' 1920 a poster bearing the picture of Mr. Hardin; along Bide of .negroes, claiming that Mr. Harding had negro blood In him. Last week a post office inspector went to Marshville and made inves tigations as to the charge. Dr. D. R. Perkins made affidavit that he saw a stranger post the circular and that Postmaster Bivens had nothing to do with it. It is understood that others who saw the circular posted wilt make similar affidavits. "Fighting Bill" Hammer, congressman from thti district, Is being furnished plen ty of ammunition and It is expected that a lively tilt will be experienced when the case comes up before the postofflce department. Marshville citizens claim that Mr. Bivens has made a most excellent postmaster. He is an ex-service boy a.nd they expect to fight the matter out to the bitter end. Queer Scene Pictured in "Three Live Ghosts" A wave of excitement recently agitated the busiest thoroughfare of London when a burley policeman held j up the traffic to allow the passage I of an aristocratic-looking gentleman, 'immaculately tailored wheeling the latest thing in , expensive baby-carriages, to which was attached a sheep which showed an obvious disinclina tion to cross the road. Absorbed and quite unperturbed by the amazement caused by his un heralded arrival, the gentleman steer ed his charge to the opposite side walk, and by the time the crowd had recovered from its astonishment, had apparently vanished into thin' air. At the same moment two cameras which had been taking a record of this unusual scene from the Inside of a covered motor lorry ceased to grind, and George Fitzmaurice, famous Par amount' producer congratulated him self on naving successfully secured a particularly effective and difficult "shot." The episode showed Cyril Chsdwick in his impersonation of "Spoofy" in "Three Live Ghosts," a Paramount picture which will be ahown at the Strand theater tonight. Anna Q. Nilsson and Norman Kerry are the featured players. ' Sweet Itevenge Judge "It seems to me that I have seen you before." Prisoner "You have, you honor; I taught your daughter singing les ons."

This provoked much merriment. Mr. Joe Hudson, the accommodating usher was kept quite busy in finding seats tor the many corners.
