Inday school work in state Ye lielieve there in no agency-doing ' greater work than the Sunday y • tool, and for that reason we find' ich interest in some statistics re - tly compiled by the North •‘Caro .Ji Sunday School Association.

To offset tliesi* conditions. [j vever, the North Carolina Sunday ra jool Association is doing a fine £■■ >k. one of tin* finest in North Car i ja we think. This is shown by the I j; that when the Association began I jressive work in No vend mV. 1920. i e counties were organized and now 9 are orgsinized and all holding an mn -conventions: that in the first six •—~~itlis of this State Convention year UiUiril- Ist to September 30th) 42 f|i nt.v conventions were held, while H k* 29 were held in the same period || year before; that in these conven • | is 813 Sunday Schools wore repre | tod by 250 pastors. 358 stiperin □ dents and 1.557 teachers, with a H il attendance of 10.625 people, an I™ rage of each meeting of 6 pastors, -2 superintendents. 37 teachers, 10 Sunday Schools, and 4153 people; t in the past six months 124 town [) conventions have been held, as inst 81 last yeaU with a gain of re than 1 50 per cent, for the .si* fi- laths, and with approximately 850 |j Inlay Schools represented with an T ■mdance of more 15,000 peo ini S 'Jr' s’ \ repeat, this is a magnificent |HSIT*S. just made public by the j B ings Bank division of the Ameri jH Bankers’ Association show that 1 lings deposits in the 1 uited Stall's pleased by ab&it $1.500.0(10,000 in ]|o as compared with 1921. The tig f |s show that, compared to reported | Bings deposits on June 30, 1921. of } H,618,695,000, the amounts for tjje ■responding ihite in 1922 was $lB,- Irhe number of saving* accounts in* Jdicated by the partial data in hand was 28.057,526 on June 30, 1922/ as compared to 26,637,831 on the corre sponding date in jp2l, a gain of 2,- 314,695. J According to this report school sav ings systems reported deposits of $5,- 500,000 during the last school year, an increase of 40 percent. over 1921 and 100 per cent, over 1920. The number of school systems also increased by over 100 per cent, during the last school year, and the number of pu pils reported as participating was 1,- 271,000. a growth of 50 per cent, over the previous school year. The report, in addition to giving in formation relative to savings deposits, also gives figures showing the amount of life insurance carried by Ameri cans. The report shows that insur ance, not including beneficial socie ties or the government bureau totals more than $50,000,000,000. Premiums on new business during the year end ed November 1. 1922. amountedl to 8225.980,000. The total premiums, in cluding the payments on annuities, paid during the year, amounted to more than $1,500,000,000. The amount of new life insurance purchased dur ing the year was $9,300,000,000, an increase of $600,000,000 or 7 per cent., over 1921. These figures show real progress. When we can get our people interest ed in -savings deposits and life insur ance we are laying a firm, foundation for the future. It is especially in teresting to: note that many school children are "making deposits, thus se curing a training that should he a great benefit to them through life. If we can get all of our people to depos it part of their money in a savings de posit system and at the same time carry life insurance, we will he es tablishing ourselves in the right way for the future. There will he less suf fering, less discontent and less radi calism in this county after we have educated our people to the necessity of providing for the proverbial “rainy day.*’ WAIT FOR REPORT. It, seems that Governor Morrison and Mr. Maxwell have said about all they can say, for the present at least, about the finances of the State, and we hope the matter will be dropped until the special committee has made its report. \ Just how long it will take the com- j mittee to report no one knows. One j person thinks the work will be done in a week. Another says a month will he required. Regardless of the time required, we think the less said about the matter now the better. A It seems that the General Assembly will have to adjourn until the report is made. Governor Morrison has ask ed for the report: iit has ncen order ed. "We do not see how hills calling for appropriations can he acted upon until the members of the Assembly are assured as to the exact financial stat us of the State. .It would he more l convenient, to he sure, to complete the work now, hut we do not see how tliisjcan he done when the entire State seems to be split over the matter of finances. No legislator, we believe, would want to puss bills calling for expenditure of the State’s money if he were uncertain as to the amount of State has. The committee's report will show the true status of things. Until that is made we think the less said the better. NEAR EAST RELIEF AGAIN. Rev. J. Frank Armstrong, who so successfully conducted tlie Near East Relief campaign in this county last year, has been persuaded to accept the chairmanship again this year, and now he is making plans to conduct the campaign. This county made an excellent rec ord in this work last year, over-sub scribing its quota about 50 per cent. It should do equally as well, if not better this year. The Near East is certainly in need of bellir the people are starving and freezing im they have been doing for years, ana it is the duty and privilege of The Christians to make their suffering less. We hope Cabarrus will again go “over the top” in this important work. CAMPAIGN FOR LIBRARY. The Concord Public Library in the near future will conduct a campaign here to raise funds^ with which to pur chase* new books, according to pres ent plans. The campaign will Ik* con ducted by the Library Association, an organization that has labored long and faithfully for the institution. We have written much during the past few years cone* ruing Concord’s Library, and we have done so be cause we consider the library one of the city’s assets, and l’or that reason we call the institution's needs to the attention of our readers. l’rof. A. 8. Webb, superintendent of the public schools of the city, declares the library is “the most eftiffieient in stitution in the city,*’ and that “more benefit is received from the money that is put into it than from any other money invested.” Miss Mary King, principal of the primary department at Central School, is another strong advocate of a bigger library. Miss, King points out that she is in constant contact with little children and says “I should say that the Library is ohe of the most won derful influences for good that we have —morally as well as educational ly. The majority of these children see no hooks for they have few hooks in their homes. They are just at the age when their imagination is the greatest. They are eager for hooks. They are constantly demanding ‘When are the new books coming?’ “May I borrow your Indian hook? I cfhx’t get one at the Library. They are all out.’ Such ''remarks from second and third grade children are every day occur rences. These children must have new hooks, because reading has help ed many p child master the mechan ics of reading. What we need for the school, as well as the public Library, is a greater quantity and variety of attractive story and picture hooks. Books, hooks, new books, will answer this need.” The Library has many line hooks, to he sure, hut most of them have been read by the children who use the in stitution. The reports for the library this year have at various times shown a decrease in the number of rea/fers. hut this is because there are no books for the children, not because the chil dren did not ask for them. We repeat, the Library is one of the city’s assets, and it should have the financial* support of everyone. If you are called upon for a donation, remember the children, and give lib erally. { SHOW NO MERCY. “Beginning Monday morning 1 am going to use’ every means within my ixiwer to put an end to the flagrant violations of the city’s traffic regula tions.” This is the warning Judge Collins, of the Greensboro court, asked the Daily Record of that city,to broad cast. In making the announcement the city judge declared that he had been lenient with violators brought before him for speeding and wreckless driving, hut leniency had not worked, so he is going to inflict severe punish ment. And we believe he will get ■results,' for, as The Salisbury Post says, “the only way to stop this dangerous thing t speeding and wreckless driving) is to stop it.” The Greensboro court pointed out that “these traffic regula tions are not merely regulations; they are the law,” and have to be treated as such. Let the Violators feel the heavy hand of the law, and there will be fewer careless and speedy drivers. IMG TUNNEL AND STEAL WHISKEY With Aid Rubber H ose Thieves Get I 160 Barrels of Liquor —Valued at Upward of $245,006. Baltimore, Md., Feb. 7.—Digging a tunnel 1550 feet long and three feet wide from a cellar of a house vo me warehouse of the Stewart Distilling company’s plant in Higlilandtown, a suburb, a band of liquor thieves, withl the aid of a rubber hose as a "pipe 1 ne” and a suction pump, siphoned move than 100 barrels of whiskey, rhe robbery was discovered eariy today, when police, acting on a tip from an unknown source, forced and entrance into the dwelling oh South street. The liquor was valued at upwards of $245,000. The house, according to the police, i.; owned by Christian -Yanxori, but’ as yet no information has been, ob tained as to where he can be found. The digging of the tunnel, according to police, must have occupied at least a moth, and was supervised by a person of engineering skill, as ihe walls and ceitin -of the passage were properly lined with timber to pre vent a possible cave-in. The robbers had cut a hole through a thick stone foundation to gain entrance to the warehouse. The hole, police say, was not more than 10 inches wide, and only a small man could have guinsd admittance to tap the barrels. Po'ice officials said the persons connected wish the robbery knew the proper “lav out” of the warehouse and that their plans had been worked out possibly months ago. The passage way was dug so that entrance to the plant was made at. a far corner of the building where their activities were shielded by a number of barrels piled there. It is not known how long the rob bery has 'been carried on, hut police officials have learned that for the past two weeks nearby residents have seen two automob je trucks call -at , the I houss nightly, and depart soon after wards. One neighbor informed the ! police that the persons he saw seemed I young and of slender bpild. Beyond 'stating that" one' of the men walked with a limp, as though he had a wooden leg, lie eould give the police no furher information. Information has been obtained by the nolice, however, that, a quantity of “Stewart” whiskey of the brand stolen from the ,*va rehouse? has made its appearance in this city and that a 'quantity of it was offered for sale last ‘Saturday. The'- are tracing this efire j inHhe hone that the thieves can be apprehended. • > ' / 1 Day by day it becomes more diffi cult to find an opponent for Cham pion Jack Dempsey. Practically half the workers of pro fessional standing in the United States j are women. r TH-E CONCORD TIMES 9 , • ® KANNAPOLIS ® « DEPARTMENT ® Kannapolis.

Springfield, 111., Feb 5 (By the As sociated Press). —Fires burning for years in coal mines, deep beneath the ground, are .one of the unsolved prob lems of coal mining in Illinois. Many of these tires, walled up years ago, according to Robert M. Medill. director of the state department of Mines and Minerals. The Donk brothers mine at Collins ville. the North mine of the Illinois and Jnilluuu Coal corporation at Witt, and several mines nejar Springfield have been compelled recently to seal up p irtions of their working to prevent the spread of these smouldering fur naces, which burn without stopping in flic hidden chambers underground. One mine was ordered closed entirely. Tfte fires start in the refuse which is left after the coal is dug and are caused* by a process similar to spon taneous combustion, according to Mr. Medill. The miners call then! "gob fires.” from the word applied by coal diggers to the debris in the mine. They do not Have up in flame, but burn slowly, smouldering away for years until they eat themselves out of fuel. Chambers where these fires start beloine a mass of live^red loals and must be sealed up to keep the air from them. The trouble is caused when a tire eats its way through a wall anil threat ens to break through into the mine workings. Some times the smoulder ing coals eat up the supporting coal pillars resulting in weakening the sup port for the ground above. Vl'hese tires cannot be extinguished by water, Mr. Medill stated. .Water only makes them worse. It is. The chem icalization resulting from the mixing of water and the refuse that causes the original combustion. The only way to stop the tires is to remove the burning coals from tig; mine. Many such tires may bo seeli on slack piles on the surface in this section of the state. These can bo flooded with water and extinguished, Mr. Medill stated. ■ - Arbor I)a.v Dates Back 1,500 Years. College Station, Texas, Fob. s.—Ob servance of Arbor Day, which is be ing celebrated in Arizona today by planting trims, dates back about 1,500 years, according to the generally ac cepted history of the day. as set forth in a bulletin by the Texas state for ester, suggesting appropriate exercis es for the. day. The bulletin says that 1,500 years ago in a little town in Switzerland de cision was reached to plant an oak grove on the common and a special clay was set aside for the work. Ev ery one in tin* village, took part, the legend says, going to the woods, dig gin and transplanting trees. In the evening there was a festival for the grown folk and a Wheaten bun was giv en each child. For many years the anniversary of the day was observed in that village by feasting and games, and the children paraded carrying oak branches. The state of Nebraska is said to have been a leader in the Arbor Day ob servanre in America. In 1872, J. Sterling Morton suggested P> the gov ernor that a day be set aside for sys tematic planting of trees. Since then < more, than 400,000,000 trees are said to have been planted by Nebraska school children. In addition the Texas legislature designated February 22. Arbor Day. Forty states now observe Arbor Day in some way..
