MAD DOG BITES GIKL
AND THEN SOME DOGS
Dog Was Killed Tuesday Night After
Its Activities Were Reported to the
Local Police Officers.
A mail dog made its appearance in
Concord Tuesday, biting one child and
several other dogs and frightening a
number of persons before it was killed
by police officers.
A daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. E.
Peele, of North Church street, was
bitten on the ntse by the dog. and
police officers were advised that -the
dog also bit a colored child.
The several dogs which were bitten
by the mad dog were located tfiis
morning aud shot by police officers
who were unwilling to take any
chances with them.
This mad dog is the first reported
in Concord in many months, it was
said. Last year the aldermen passed
a law requiring all dogs to be vacci
nated against rabies and a similar
law was passed this year. The law
was so nearly perfectly carried out
that no mad dogs were reported last
year and this is the first reported this
year. It is understood that the mad
dog wore no tag showing that it had
been vaccinated.
The Peele child’s nose was badly
bitten and she was frightened when
she learned the dog was made. How
ever, a physician started her on a pas
teur treatment end her condition to
day is as favorable as could be ex
pected, it is said.

New System For High
Schools For County Is
4 Outlined at Conference
Six High School Plants at
Strategic Points Will Be
Built Under the Plan as
Outlined Here.
HOPE TO START
WORK THIS YEAR
A. T. Allen, State Superin
tendent of Public In
struction, Was Present
For the Conference.
A system of high schools, situated
at strategic points throughout the
county, will be built in the near fu
ture as the result of the conference
heled here Tuesday by the county
board of education and school com
mitteemen from all parts’•of the coun
ty- •
A. T. Allen, State Superintendent
of Public Instruction, attended the
conference, speaking briefly on the
growth of education in this State aud j
the United States and pointing out
the need of standardization work ev
erywhere.
The State law requires that before
a system of high schools shall be
erected in a county the county-board
of education must outline its plan to
school committeemen ami if the plan
is approved, tlie work can be started.
Prof. J. B. Robertson, county school
superintendent, explained the law at
the meeting aud then outlined to the
committeemen the proposed high
school units for the county.
Prof. Robertson explained that stan
dard high school plants would be
erected at the following places under
the proposed plan of the bourd :
1. In No. 10 township at a point
on the road leading from Charlotte to
Albemarle.
2 At point near Harrisburg.
3 In No. 3 township near forks of
road at home of Dr. Gouger.
4. At jioint near Mt. Pleasant.
5. At Kannapolis.
0. At Winecoff.
The present plan of organization
calls for large school grounds at each
plant, with modern brick buildings
and modern equipment. Special ef
fort will be made to see tlia.t each
building has a large auditorium. All
high school work of the respective
district will be centralized at these
high school centers together with one
or two grammar grades at some of
them. Prof. Robertson explained.
It was further explained by Supt.
Robertson that the plan provides not
only for standard high schools but
high schools of that size and organi
zation that will provide for a general
course of study to include domestic
science, agriculture, music and such
other courses as may be needed.
A number of committeemen gave
their hearty approval to the general
plan as outlined to them, saying m
their opinion that such a system is
needed and needed at once. The
board members assured the committee
men that they proposed to build the
units as soon as practical, and with
such regularity as will be possible with
the money at hand.
In this connection hope was express
ed by the board that at least three of
the plants can be erected within the
next 12 months, and these three, with
the schools already located at Kan
napolis and Winecoff, will take care
of the county until the others can be
erected.
The Winecoff School, it was ex
plained at the meeting, will be contin
ued as a high school unit. The pres
ent building will be replaced later by
a modern, brick structure. Os course,
the high school at'Kannapolis, will
continue as a standard school.
It was explained at the meeting
that all grammar school buildings will
be utilized for the present, but it is
thought that as a matter of conse
quence that as soon as the high school
units are established there will be
done so work toward consolidating all
of the elementary schools.
Busses will not be used in the
high schools until enough of the
plants are in operation to warrant a
systematic schedule that will offer ser
vice to every high school student
who lives beyond walking distance to
one of the schools.
No local taxes will be necessary to
operate the schools for six months
each year, it was explained at the
meeting. The State law provides that
the county board of education shall
have the right to levy such taxes as
are needed and the local board feels
that plans can be carried out with
funds from the regular tax levy. An
increase in the school tax becomes ef
fective in this county when the 1925
taxes are paid, and this increase will
likely take care of the needs for the
present.
The law provides that high schools
must operate at least eight months
each year if they are to receive stand
ard grades, and all of the proposed
schools of the county will have six
months terms at least, and it is hoped
that away can be found by which the
terms can be extended to eight months.
This point will be worked out later,
under the present plans of the board.
The definite location of the high
school buildings will be left with the
board of education. The board mem
bers plan, however, to confer with the
committeemen and study local condi
tions in arriving at a decision as to
the sites.
About 100 committeemen were px-es
ent at the meeting and in addition
there were present about 25 patrons
who were interested enough in the dis
cussion to attend the meeting.
If plans of the board of education
do not go awry, work on the proposed
high school plants will begin without
undue delay and it is probable that
some of the plants will be ready for
work before the expiration of another
12 months.
In the course of his talk Mr. Allen
THE CONCORD TIMES
pointed out some of Ihe educational
changes that have come during the
past two decades, telling his hearers
they must provide means of keeping
step edueationally with the rest of the
State. He also commended the kindly
spirit of eo-operation shown by those
present.
JUDGE LINE DELIVERS
CHARGE TO GRAND JURY
Court Convenes and Takes I’p Num
ber of Cases— W. M. Fisher Grand
Jury Foreman,
Judge Henry P. Lane, after opening
the August term of court here Mon
day afternoon, delivered his charge to
the jury, giving to the jurors an able
exposition of crimes and the extent
of their punishments. After dividing
all offenses into two classes, felonies
and jnisdemeanore, he continued by
giving a general review of crimes.
Nothing is more important today,
said Judge Lane, than the regulation
of motor vehicles. The most common
form of manslaughter at the present,
he continued, is killing persons in
this manner. More people were killed
by motor vehicles last year than died
from typhoid fever.
The liquor traffic was stressed and
the traffic in narcotic drugs was held
up ns being almost as serious as that
in liquor.
The jury was charged to investi
gate cruelty to dumb animals and
bring to justice any offender of such
a nature.
The grand jury was composed of
the following men: W. M. Fisher,
foreman: W. A. Holland, R. B. Mc-
Donald, George A. Iloger, It. B. Furr,
J..W. Slough, H. C. Clauson, A. G.
Ulayton. J. C. Hartsell, J. L. Ross,
Frank Slough, (’. .T. Rogers. J. R.
Oorzine, John Deal, R. /. 'Bentley,
W. S. Allman, Thomas Blackwelder
and J. M. Cauble.
Immediately after the charge to the
jury, Luther E. Barrfhnrdt was pre
sented to Judge Lane. Mr. Rarnhardt
is a graduate of Wake Forest. Judge
Lane made a brief speech welcoming
him to the bar.
The court then proceeded with the
docket at hand. Wayne Jordan, B.
Y. Womaeh and A. G. Cook, all of
Warsaw, were first to come up and
plead guilty to transporting and pos
sessing liquor. A fine of .SSO and
costs was fixed in this case. B. Y.
Womaeh was charged with driving a
ear while intoxicated but the court, at
tlic request of the defendants’ council,
waived tlie finding of the bill and al
lowed Mr. Womaeh to plead guilty
of forcible trespass. In this instance
he was fined $25 and costs. A. G.
Cook, charged with carrying a con
cealed weapon, plead guilty to forcible
trespass and was fined SSO and the
costs.
Luther West and George Phifer,
charged with transporting liquor,
plead guilty and were fined SSO and
costs. Luther West was charged in
addition to this with driving a car
without lights. In this the defend
ant entered a plea of noln contendere
to the charge of driving the car while
intoxicated which plea was accepted
by the solicitor. A fine of $25 and
costs was fixed.
F. M. Tucker, charged with possess
ing liquor, was fined SSO and costs.
Sam Ritchie was fined SSO and
costs in a gambling charge.
Dave Kiser tendered a plea of forc
ible respass and after a prayer for
judgment, the ease was continued for
three years, the defendant to appear
at each term and show that he had
been “of good behavior.”
George Earnhardt, charged with re
sisting an officer, plead guilty and was
sentenced to thirty days on the roads,
not. to wear stripes.
Thomas Daniel, Avery Grass and
Clyde Christy, on a charge of forcible
trespassing, were discharged but were
required to show’ three years good be
havior. 1
MISSING FARMER IS
LOCATED IN ST. PAUL
N. A. Blackwelder Sent Word From
That Citl to Local Relatives—On
Way Home Now’.
N. A. Blackwelder, local farmer who
disappeared here ten days ago, has
been located in St. Paul, Minn., and
funds have been forwarded for his re
turn home. He is expected to return
some time this w T eek.
Relatives here were first advised of
Mr. Blackwelder’s whereabouts in a
telegram from a Catholic organization
to which he went for aid soon after
arriving in St. Paul. The organiza
tion advised relatives that Mr. Black
welder would be cared for until ready
to return to his home here.
Upon receipt of the telegram rela
tives here immediately sent Mr. Black
welder funds for his expenses home.
Just how Mr. Blackwelder reached
St. Paul and w 7 hy he went to that
city is not known as no details of
liis trip have been received. He was
last seen here Saturday a week ago,
when he got into a car bearing a Ten
nessee license and started in the di
rection of Salisbury. Relatives here
at the time stated that he had only
a small amount of money with him,
so it is presumed that he prevailed
upon motorists to carry him from
point to point until he reached St.
Paul, where he decided to ask for
aid.
It was at first feared by relatives
that Mr. Blackwelder had met with
foul play and they are greatly re
lieved to learn that he is safe.
To Visit Miss Cannon Here.
Miss Virginia Page Dußois, of
Mainsfield, La., is expected to arrive
in the city Friday to spend some time
j as the house guest of Miss Penelope
Cannon at her home on North Union

accorded maiy social honors during
her stay in that city.
Mrs. J. F. Harris is spending the
day in Charlotte with friends.

soil. .
2. Lime improves the texture of
soils and makes them more tillable.
3 Lime decomposes potash com
pounds and makes them more readily
available.
4. Lime assists in the conversion
of organic matter into available hum
llSs. Lime aids the desirable fermen
tation process.
6. Lime forms compounds with va
rious chemicals necessary to plant
growth and prevents Ifceir loss by
leaching, especially in sandy soil.
7. Lime makes sandy soils more co
hesive and retentive of moisture.
8. Lime makes clay soils more por
ous and granular.
9. Lime promotes the nitrification
of soil through colonies of bacteria on
leguminous plants.
10 Lime provides a favorable con
