Misses Bertha Cook and Sadie Harris with their friends Misses Jessie Williamson and Nell Jenkins of Pageland, S.C., hiked to their home in Kannapolis from the Boone summer school Saturday, which is about 140 miles.
They left boon at 1:45 o’clock and arrived in Kannapolis at 8:30 o’clock. They just stepped out on the highway when a man came by and brought the almost to Lenoir. Then they rode with different people until they got six miles this side of Lenoir, when a Mr. Ash came by and brought them into Statesville. Then they road again with different parties until they came into Kannapolis counting 12 different parties in all.
The girls seemed to have enjoyed their trip down here but don’t know how they are coming out on their hike back.
