The wonderful progress of the Woodmen of the World the past year is plainly shown in a statement just Issued by Manager Lewis to all of the Woodmen camps in North Caro-

lina. 121,000 new members were accept-

ed during the year of 1913 and there are now 692.447 Woodmen In the Sov- ereign Jurisdiction alone not count- ing those of the Pacific or Canadian jurisdictions.

There was a net increase in the United States of 50,147 members $6.187.4009.00 was paid to widows and orphans during the year and 4.020 monuments erected to the mem- ory of deceased Woodmen.

In North Carolina during 1913 there were 5,169 new members accepted and the state now has 19,000 members in good standing, a net Increase of over 3,256. The sum of $180,800.00 was paid out to beneficiaries in North Carolina on account of the death of 133 sovereigns the death rate being only 7.16 per thousand. Only three states in the Union had a larger numerical Increase of members than North Carolina, one of these being

Texas. Prom the foregoing figures it is

readily seen that Woodcraft is stead- ily growing in strength and fulfill- ing in every way iis mission, tho pro- tection of the American home.

The keeper of the National Gallery told tho magistrate that the selling price of the picture had been depre- preciated by the outrage by $75,000.

The prisoner harangued the court,

saying: "Reginald McKenna, the House Sec-

retary, has turned tho criminal code into a farce. This Is the tenth time I have been brought before a magis- trate this year. He cannot coeroe me and cannot compel me to serve a sentence. He can only repeat th> farce of releasing me."

Scholars Must Be Vaccinated Says

School Board

At a meeting last night, the Graded School Hoard passed a resolution pro viding that all children who have not have been vaccinated lor smallpox by- March 83rd shall be excluded from the graded school. This means that chil- dren who have not heretofore been successfully vaccinated must he vnc- cinated before the above date or be required to remain away from school.

It was also reconinn ided that all who have not been successfully vac- cinated within live years bo vaccinated again as a matter of precaution.

In case any parents are not able to pay the regular vaccination fee, the county physician. Dr. Skinner, will vacclnato free of charge.

All this Is done for the protection of the community, nnd It is hoped that everybody will gladly do his part.

Bui on my way to this Grand Floating Theatre, my attention was called to notice tin' actions of the peo- ple of Greenville in showing 'heir ap- preciations for their home business wherein they "rank with others," that I notice at other places.

On my return from Mr. Adams show is good of its kind, and I under- just near the county court house known as the Palace Thea're.

Now here is one thing I I wish to call the attention of the peo- ple of Greenville to. That Is, nt least 75 per cent of all the money you peo- pie give lo Ibis little home show Is not carried away from Greenville but spent h.r.- In your midst, While on the other hand, the many dollars you give to Mr. adama Show is taken away, never to return to QrcenvHle again.

The price paid for the land i- $65 an acre, ami the board has die privi- lege of taking a few more acres adjoining if they sboud wani this later tn square lip the plot to a new road ilinl will be

built on the west of it. The board purchased by the com

j missioners is that portion "f the farm lying to the north of the Tarboro road and fronting im-

imediatelv on the Atlantic Coast I Line railroad. The railroad alrea- dy has a side track abutting the property,

Il is the purpose of the oonimis,- Isioners to erect on the property a , modern rountv home.the buildings- Ito lie of brick, steam heated, and have every convenience for the comfort of the Inmates. The land will produce enough to supply the need- of the home.

The location is ideal for a county home, plenty near the town

Accuser Kate Threatened Sui- cide. Mime) Lost is Specu-

lation.

GOLDSBORO March i". -For sever- al days past an expert bank oxaminei has been in the city Inspecting tin books of the Goulsboro Savings an Trust company and the National bank, being summoned here by George A. Norwood president of the National Ilauk who had suspected wrong was i.ine. on, but so quietly had the affair been kept from the public that not until only today was a shortage of the two above hanks given to the stock holders and the public in general. This afternoon the stockholders of the two banks gave out the following state- j ment: "That the Ooldsboro Savings and Trust company had discovered a shortage of r,o,ono and some few nun-; dred dollars and the National bank shortage of $2f,.000 a defalaction by H. C Smith an employe of the Nation-; al bank and for two years cashier of | the Ooldsboro Savings and Trust com

puny. The first shortage was dlsiOVSred in

the National bank but relatives of young Smith promptly made good tha! sum and the affair was kept quiet

Today an Inspection of the books of the Ooldsboro Savings and Trust com- pany disclosed a shortage of $50.0uO but the olss will only be $40.0u0 since Smith was bonded by an Insurance company for $10,000.

The stockholders held a meeting this afternoon behind closed doors with

result that George A. Norwood, orescent of tho two banks deposited $50 000 In cash with the stockholders as a personal loss of their money or Interest on same, and when the meet- ing had adjourned the above state- ment was given to the public.

The Stockholders were willing to share the loss with Mr. Norwood but he refused their aid and stated thai he felt as though he was rcsponhible for the condition of the two bank! and his conscience would not allow him to do otherwise thnn make good the defalcations personally Manv banks throughout the south have tele- graphed Mr. Norwood this nfternoor. off.ring their aid and If made Into r total would run up Into the hundreds of thousands.

Smith was also city treasurer hut no examination has been made of the books. I'P to this hour Smith has not been arrested.

While In conversation with Mr Norwood this morning Mr. Smith >alleged to have informed him that be intended to end his life, ns he now hail nothing to live for. The money, It Is suid was lost hy speculation.

Young Smith was prominently con- nected in this city and the affair has cast n gloom over the entire town.
