Bible Thought For The Day

RETURN TO THE LoRD: —I.et the

righteous man his thoughts: and let
him return unto ihe Lord, and he
will have mercy upon him : and to our
God. for lie will abundantly pardon.-
Isaiali 55:7.
SHOT LI) LISTEN TO LOCAL SI G
GESTIONS.
The members <>f the .hoard of com
missioners of Cabarrus (Vanity this
week adopted a resolution asking the
State Highway Commission to lmild
fin underpass instead of an overhead
bridge on the Com-ord-Kannapolis
highway to do away with the grade
crossing how Ipentted at Cook’s Cross
ing. The. board in the resolution stat
ed that in its opinion an underpass
would be safer and would serve the
public letter than the proposed over
head bridge.
We have been advised that the.plans
of the commission first called for the
underpass, but during the past several
mouths the original plans have been
changed, and the commission now fav
ors the overhead passage. The tinder
pass would he constructed south of
Cook’s Crossing, and tlie overhead
bridge would be erected north of the
old site of the County Home.
We feel that the resolution of the
local commissioners should have much
weight with the State commissioners.
The comity commissioners have look
ed at the matter from all angles, and
they have arrived at their decision af
ter much consideration. They under
stand. of course, that the highway is
being constructed for the traveling pub
lic, hut at the same time they have
the right-to feel that Cuba mis people*
are to be considered as well as the
general public.
The commissioners not only express
ed tin* belief that the underpass would
serve more people than the overhead
bridge, but they also are of the opinion
that the overhead bridge would l*e
more dangerous than the subway route.
To get to the bridge si fill would have
to be constructed, they found, and
there would be no way to see the ap
proaches to the bridge until llie driv
er is on the structure. The hoard also
found that persons using tin* road lead
ing from Cook’s Crossing into town
ships 2 and 3 would have to use the
grade crossing to reach the Stsite high
way if the overhead bridge is built.
If the underpass is erected the road
lesuling into the two townships would
connect with it at tire present point of
juncture and. a crossing .of the tracks
would not Ik* necessary.
We have not heard the arguments of
the commission in selecting the over
head route and while we believe they
feel they have excellent .reasons for
their choice, we think’that the county
commissioners should be* heard and
their* arguments given full considera
tion. From what we can determine,
the underpass seems the much better
of the two routes.
ACTIVE FUILDING CONDITIONS
HERE.
Contracts for about 81,000,000 worth
of new buildings have been let in
this city since the first of the year, in
addition to hundreds of homes which
arc* now under construction or which
liaye been completed since .January
firs*. The bulk ol the new' building
business here is being done by the cot
ton mills, but. numerous store rooms,
additions to present store buildings,
school buildings qml additions to
Churches are included in the total. Lo
ral contractors are busier than they
have been in many months, and con
tractors living in neighboring cities
have secured much' of the work being
done or planned here.
Hundreds of new homc-s ha*'£ been
jerected here within the post three
| months, but the house shortage is still
: being felt. Several of the cotton mills
which have enlarged the capacity of
their plants have erected many homes,
and still others are to be built as soon
as possible. Several families which
recently moved to Concord declared
they could find no home, and there are
dozens of applicants for every house
in the city that becomes vacant.
The Citizens Bank and Trust Com
pany has just completed a modern
banking home in the heart of tin* busi
ness district. The Cabarrus Savings
Bank is ready to let the contract for
the erection of a five-story bank and
office building. —The Parks-Belk Com
pany has just completed a $50,000 ad
dition to its old home: Morris Brothers
are planning to erect three brick store
buildings in the business section: and
a number of store buildings have been
remodeled and enlarged within the
past few months. These are only a
few of the additions and changes made
in (lie business section.
In addition to all of (lie building
work that has been in progress here
about nine miles of streets have been
paved, and a large payroll on this work
has been spent here. The State roads
leading to Charlotte and Kannapolis
are under construction now. and the
contractors on this work have done
much business here, a majority of the
workers coming to Concord to buy
their goods and food.
The beginning of 1923 gives every in
dication of great prosperity for this
city during the entire year.
WHERE SOME OF THE MONEY
GOES.
The Department of Commerce re
ports that in 1921. $248,450,000 worth
of chewing anil smoking tobacco and
snuff were manufactured in the 1 nit-'
ed States, compart'd with $239,271,000
in 1919 and $175.2X1.000 in 1914.
These figures show an increase of 4
per cent, from 1919 to 1921 and an in
crease of 43 per cent, from 1914 to
1921. I'n addition to the value of prod
ucts of the classified industry, the re
port shows further, chewing and smok
ing tobacco to'.the value of $08.705.090
in 1921, X45.0X7.000 in 1919 and 84.-
412.000 in 1914 were reported to the
Department as subsidiary products by
establishments classified in other in
dustries. principally cigar and cigar
ette factories. Missouri ranked first
in this industry and North Carolina
second in value of products in 1921.
Those figures show where much of
our money goes. We complain a lot
about giving to the Near East. Ued
Cross, the Church, colleges and edm a
tion in general. Y. M. C. A. and other
things, but there is no reason to de
clare we are over-burdened with these
things when we can spend such enor
mous sums for tobacco and snufT.
STARTED SOMETHING..
~])r. Armstrong, secretary of the Nat
ional Health Council, certainly start
ed something when he recently advis
ed young men to “stay north” because
ho said, health conditions there are
so much better than they are in the
South. The address of Dr. Armstrong
had hardly been made public before
he—was beseiged with letters from till
parts of the South calling him to task
for Ills statements.
Dr. W. S. Rankin, the moving spirit
of the health department of this State,
was one Southerner to answer the
charges of Dr. Armstrong, who lias re
plied to Dr. Rankin stating that lie
was misunderstood, that lu* meant no
reflection on the South, which has
made fine progress in recent years in
health matters. Health officials in
South Carolina also wrote Dr. Arm
strong. and in each instance he replied
to the letters with the statement that
lie was misunderstood.
Our health records compare favor
ably with flic records of other sections
of the country, and Dr. Armstrong
found this was true when statistics
were given him. In his letter to I>r.
Rankin he was frank enough to state
that he had “learned a lesson” and
“would be more cautious in making re
marks of any kind” in the future.
A SERIOUS PROBLEM.
The city is now faced with a serious
problem as relates to the disposition
of its trash. We not only need in Con
cord a better system of collecting
trash; we need just as badly, if not
worse, a system which will rid the
city of the trash and its accompanying
evils once it is collected. If there are
any people here who doubt the seri
ousness of the problem we ask them to
visit tin* present dumping ground for
the city’s trash, just across the Three
Mile Branch on the Mt. Pleasant road.
Under the present system, which lias
been in force here for many years, the
trash wagons carry their loads to the
; hollows on the Mt. Pleasant road and
dump them. No effort is made to
'burn the trash, and it is allowed to
lie and rot on the ground, in open view
'of everyone who passes and within
1 several hundred yards of a number of
1 citizens of the city who live near the
'city limits.
I The trash ndt only causes foul od
ors, it breeds millions of insects and
germs, which swarm to the city and
spread their tilth to all with whom
they i;ome in contact. Flies, mos jui
toes and other insects want no belter
breeding ground than the city is now
providing for them. They are left in
their filthy beds to produce millions of
offsprings, who collect germs on their
bodies and scatter them to the four
winds.
Dr. Buchanan, county health officer,
hopes that the city will soon pur
chase an incinerator in which the
trash can be burned. Until such a
plant is erected here he suggests that
the city purchase or lease some proper
ty, some distance from any lioiise,
where the trash can be dumped and
burned. All of the trash cannot be
burned in the open, it is true, but it at
least will be disinfected by the smoke
and fire which will touch it, and di
sease-carrying insects will not inhabit
it. Such a plan seems very feasfide,
and should prove satisfactory until an
incinerator can be purchased.
Under the plan suggested by Dr.
Buchanan the trash will be dumped
at some point distant from any public
road and as far as possible from the
main roads of the county. Under the
present plan the trash is dumped on the
Mt. Pleasant road, one of tin* princi
pal highways in the county and as a
link in tlu* road to Raleigh, one of the
most frequently used roads in North
Carolina. Hundreds of strangers pass
over the road each day, and that Hash
pile is certain to give them a very dis
tasteful conception of life and habits
in this city.
An incinerator, judging from prices
quoted to the city aldermen several
years ago. probably will cost about
$6,000. We have just invested that
sum in a street sweeper, which is to
help collect the trash. Wouldn't ir be
economy to invest another $0,000? i’kc*
sweeper was badly needed, its pur
chase a wise step, but its real value to
the city w ill be lessened unless wo pro
vide some moans of disposing oi the
trash it collects.
A new board of aldermen will be
sworn in some time in June, and we
can think of no better way it could
inaugurate its work than by purchas
ing an incinerator. The present board,
it is understood, favors purchasing an
incinerator, but it is unwilling to make
the purchase on tin* eve of its w ith
drawal from the official life of the
city. i
We repeat, the problem is a serious
mie, and where life, health and city
pride are at stake money should not
be considered.
Da net's 50 Hours and Breaks World
Record.
New York. April 9. —With a Texas
.whoop Miss Alma Cummings shook
her worn slippers from her Wet to
night and did a barefoot pircnctr.* on
the floor of an uptown dance ball,
and thus was created forma I!v a u<".v
world’s record of 50 hours com inuous
daneing.
Miss Cummings is the Sin Antonio
giri who resented tlu* breaking of her
world’s record for continuous danc
ing last week by a pair who went six
more hours than her 7. She start
ed off on a new attempt at 7:19 last
Saturday evening. At 9:15 tonight
she finished lu*r stepping, • having
gone 59 continuous hours.
Shi* said she was not tired. She.
used up the energy of two orches
tras and seven men partners. Some
grapefruit, tomato soup and peanuts
were her only food. She, would have
gone beyond the 50 mark, Miss Cum
mings said, except that her head be
gan to ache because she was exposed
to strong sunlight for three hours this
afternoon. During the last six hours
iced towels were applied to her
head. Her employer presented her
with a silver loving cup.

For an hour the teacher had dwelt
with painful repetition on the parts
played by carbohydrates, proteids and
fats in the building up and maintain
ing of the human body.
_ At the end of the lesson the muni
test questions were put. among them:
“Can any girl 'tell me the three
foods required to keep the bodv in

There was silence, until one nut men
held up her hand and replied"
“Yes, teacher! Ytr breakfast, yer

THE CONCORD TIMES
County Commissioners
j Discuss Road Matters
;
Board Passes Resolution Asking That Underpass and Not
Overhead Bridge Be Elected by the State on the Road
Leading From This City to Kannapolis.
The county commissioners held an
other extraordinary session av .the
court house Monday, making the third
for this month. Tlu* meeting Mon
day was called for the -purpose of
discussing the route to be followed on;
the construction of the Concovd-Kan
nnpolis highway. The board was ad
vised that tho- highway commission
lias made.a change in its plans for the
construction of this road, and instead
of an underpass it now plans an over
head bridge.
After visiting and examining the
proposed point for the underpass and
the overhead bridge the board passed
a resolution asking the highway co n
mission to hold up present plans and j
construct the underpass instead of the
overhead bridge.
The board members were advised at
tlu* meeting that the first plans adopt
ed by the highway commission called
! for the underpass, and it was general
ly * understood that such plans would
be followed. Recently, however, ac
cording to information received by the
boa.rd, the overhead bridge plan las
been adopted by tho commission, and
plans are underway now for its con
st ruction.
Tin* hoard was also told at the meet-j
ing that if the overhead bridge plan is j
followed, many persons living on thej
west side of the railroad tracks will
have to cross them at a grade crossing
to get to the highway, whereas if ihe
underpass is built and tin* present
route of the road is Used, these per-i
sons will not have to cross the tracks.
The board after visiting the prop os-'
ed sites, passed the resolution asking!
the coimqLsion to adopt the first pi. in, J
and construct the underpass.

DK. LEONARD LAST NIGHT
Preached a Strong Sermon on ‘God Is
Not All in Their Thoughts.”
Dr. Leontird preached a strong ser
mon on the text “God is not in all
their thoughts.” He spoke in part
as follows : Tht re is a supreme motive,
in every soul and that motive domi
nates us. There was a poor farmer’s
son who had a strong desire for an
education. It looked impossible.
The father died just ut the time the
boy was ready to go off to school. A
mother with a number of little chil
dren was in no position to help her
boy. But she. sent him. He ai>-
preefubd the opportunity and made
Mil l host use of his time and was eno
nomical in the esc of money. Every
means was exhausted to see the. son
through. And when he finished he
was the honor student of his class,
lie was moved by a motive so strong
that he made good. Tlie sacrifices
fin the part of the mother spurred
him to the very best that there was
in him. So a dominant motive
spurs us on to the noble or the ig
noble. : to the very best, or the lack of
that motive causes us to fall to the
lowest. Me.u and women are en
dowed with excellent faculties. They
are ours by creation. God would live
in us that these faculties might be de
veloped to the very best as- intended
by our Creator..
There was once a man who found a
gold piece as he was walking. From
that time on he walked with his eyes
on the ground looking for gold. He
failed to appreciate the light and the
warmth of the sunshine; he failed to
see the beauty of nature.. He failed
to look up to God. He was moved
by the dominant motive of gold. God
was not in his thoughts. That was
the sad status of A ife man. life was
misspent and wasted. If takes the
upward look.
I don't believe, in mule-faced relig
ion, neither do T believe in the frivol
ous and nonsensical stuff that folks
palm off for religion. 1 believe in
tilings that are worthwhile, noble and
pure thoughts. There should he a
high tone to our'conversation. There
is a place for the good time, for that
which amuses, for that which pro
vokes laughter: hut there is no need
for that which borders on the vulgar
and that which suggests the shady
and immoral. There is not'd for a
