REFUSED TO BE VACCINATED.The case of the Davidson county man who refused to be vaccinated and came near dying of small pox, should be carefully considered by Halifax county people who have been reasoning along the same line. The Lexington Dispatch says of this man who had applied the county for help: "'He had refused to be vaccinated, or had neglected it and his own opinion of his performance was that he had 'acted like a d-d and he said that noth withstanding his experience, there were others in his section doing the same sort of thing. He also said that people called it 'mild' if small pox patient got well, but he said he discovered nothing 'mild' about it -that it almost put him over the great divide. The testimony of others is the same. Smallpox is loathsome.

The eyes swell shut and the lips get to be an inch thick, and it is fierce. A little vaccine point, a physician and fifty cents will prevent a case."

Green, county superintendent of health for Halifax county, swore out war- rants before Justice J. W. Pierce against Joe Summerell, colored, for violation of law in regard to reporting small pox in his family; and against Alex Nixon for breaking the quarantine regulations. Summerell had several cases of small pox at his home near Tillery, and failed to report the same to the county superintendent of health and Alex Nixon, who was under quarantine in the same section, broke the quarantine and left before the time for his discharge. Nixon was arrested near Enfield, and brought here for trial.

Both Summerell and Nixon had a hearing before Justice J. W. Pierce Friday. Summerell was fined $30, in default of which he was sent to jail; Nixon was given a sentence of 30 days on the county roads. The superintendent of health is doing everything possible to stamp out small pox from the county, and people who openly and wilfully violate the law by failure to report small pox in their families; or break the quarantine regulations will be given the full penalty of the law.

Only in this way can a community be safe from the spread of this terrible disease. BANK OF WELDON. -At a meeting of the stockholders of the Bank of Weldon, the following officers were elected: W. E. Daniel, president; W.

E. CLARK, (Cor. to the ROANOKE NEWS.) HALIFAX, N. March 1. The people of the town of Halifax are never behind in good work for civic improvement.

A few days ago the women of Halifax organized themselves into the Woman's Civic Betterment Association, Mrs. S. M. Gary, wife of the efficient clerk of Halifax Superior court, was elected president; Mrs. Ida Sater, vice-president; and Mrs.

E. L. Travis, secretary. Mrs. Travis explained that her time was so completely occupied with Eastern Star work, she being the grand matron of North Carolina, that it would be impossible for her to act; thereupon Mrs.

Travis was allowed to name the secretary, and the honor fell to Miss Nannie Gary. It is the purpose of the organization to divide the town into districts, and to exercise a general supervision within the corporation. The motto is "Cleanliness is next to Godliness," and the watchword: The W. A. Club was most delightfully entertained Monday by Mrs.

J. L. Weller at her home on corner of Pitt and Granville streets. There was a large gathering present to partake of Mrs. Weller's hospitality.

After the delicious menu was served, little Miss Katharine Weller presented each guest with a lovely bunch of white hyacinths and asparagus ferns daintily tied with white ribbon. The guests left at a late hour indebted to Mrs. Weller for a charming afternoon.
