Bible Thought for the Day ROAD TO TRUE RICHES:— Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.— Matt. 6:33. • “ ‘""T - - -f " 101 PER CENT. AMERICANS. v. The expression “101/ per cent. Am erican’’ is passing out. Os course never has been a 100 per cent. American except the Indian, but we have gotten into the habit of boasting on all occasions of our pare bred Am erican. indicating in some instances that anything done by such a person is all right. Instead of the 100 per cent, we have gone further and added the 101 per cent. American. Such a person is thus described by the edittor of £he Kansas City' Star: “He drinks ‘Scotch’ whiskey that was made in the back room of a drug store in Newark. N. J. “He wears suits of the finest ‘Eng lish’ worsteds, raised in the fields of South Carolina, and woven on the looms of Lowell. Mass. “He smokes genuine ‘Havana cigars that were manufactured in Pawtuck et. R. 1.. of tobacco grown in Connec ticut. ’ . **He is familiar with all the class es of European literature because they have been vividly interpreted by a continuity writer in Hollywood, Cal. ••He eats ‘French’ pastry that was prepared in the basement of a Jewish delicatessen in Long Island City. “He smokes a certain brand of New York made cigarettes because they are * said to cost a shilling in London. “He sits in ‘Chippendale’ chairs * that were constructed in Grand Rap ids, Mich. “He sports a gray felt hat from Danbury, Conn., because he once saw a similar model in a photograph of ] the Prince of Wales. “He sings a popular song entitled. * ‘Kiss Me Like My Daddy Does,’ pub ■ lished in New York, but written origp inaliy in 1738 by Jonathan Sebastian ‘ Bach. “He hates every thing that may be ’ classed as ‘foreign.’ * “He believes in isolation. “He voted for a high protective _ tariff.” The Greenville. S. C., news invites ’ ‘‘candidates for the order” to “please step forward,’ 'and adds that “in this * section when the roster is completed, % it will be found to contain the same * names as the 101 per cent. Southern ers who chant boastingly of the tra * ditions apd heritages of Dixie, the ‘ purity and energy of the Anglo-Sax - ons. but will not buy goods that are manufactured anywhere below the Z Mason and Dixon line nor read books that are written by Southern writers. The gap between action and words continues wide.” ARE WE TO TAKE TURN * ABOUT? * ' While plans are going ahead for the ' ~ disarmament conference to be held under the direction of the Council of the League of Nations we learn that nations of the world are building big ger battleships than ever before. The United States is ready to spend $50,- -» 000 in preparation for the prepara tory conference of the disarmament r conference and other nations are spending money for the same purpose. And at the same time they are spend-1 ing millions fofr war equipment. The greatest battleship ever built, , we’re told, has just been launched by Great Britain. It is the Nelson, built at a cost of $35,000,000 and re quiring $2,000,000 annually for up ' keep. What will the rest of the nations -of th# world do? If they •follow the * time-worn custom they will immedi ately begin work on a ship bigger than the 4 -Nelson. Heretofore evel*y time 1. one of the larger .nations has built a - ship the other larger nations try to go one better. : Maybe Japan, the United States. Germany or Russia ** will start work on a ship to cost $50,- ~ 000,000. This is the sort of thing the world is trying to stop, or at least its the *• ■«- sort of thing we should be trying to stop. If Great Britain gets a navy that is more powerful than the nav ies of the other nations fear is arous ed. is the same with any other na tion. ’ f We have tried the system for ages, why not start on something else? The arms policy has failed. It has never stopped war and never will. It costs the people millilons of dollars annual ly and eventually leads to nothing but \taj. ~~ WHO SHALL HAVE THE CRED IT? Several days ago the Senate ask ed the President to take some action looking to a settlement of the coal strike. The resolution bad not been history an hour before the White House “spokesman” let the world un derstand that the President woiyld ig nore the request. Other agencies interested in a set tlement of the strike were at work, however, and tfley arranged for the conference that eventually resulted in peace terms. No sooner was this conference call ed than the same “spokesman” came out with the statement that although the President has had nothing to do in the matter, federal agencies bad been at work all along seeking set tlement. It was believed all along that this would result in a settlement, so the “spokesman” lost no time to get in a word for the Presi dent. Os course he did not say the President had anything to do with it directly, but he let it be understood that agencies of the Coolidge admin istration were at work, intimating that they were responsible for the sefr tlement. Now these agencies may be due credit for the settlement, but if they have been at work all along why wait until something was done before tell ing the public about it ? And if* they have not been at work why haven t they? What was the object in wait ing this long? If it was right for the government to take a hand in the-mat ter after the strike had continued for several months, was it not just as proper for the government to take ac tion on the day of the strike or the following day? Millions dollars have been lost, the miners have gained nothing end the public has suffered as a result of the strike. The operators have gained nothing. They are going to pay the same wages they were paying when the strike was called. The federal government has no rightful praise for itself in the strike. If it settled the strike through its agents it should be ashamed of the fact that it waited so' long. If it didn’t have anything to do with the settlement it is to be censured. MUST TAKE THEIR MEDICINE. It was no easy thing, we can easily believe, for Governor McLean to re fuse to parole or pardon the Asheville mob members. i In this case, perhaps, more pressure had been brought to bear than in any other of the cases facing the Govern or. All sorts of petitions were pre sented ; all kinds of people made all kinds of pleas. Governor McLean sent Pardon Sink to Ashe ville to make an investigation and when the commissioner recommended that the men finish their sentences the Governor accepted his report. We feel that the majority of the people will agree with and applaud the Governor's decision. They may be mitigating circumstances, but just the same these men committed a serious crime and if' we are to prevent soch •crimes in the future we must show a determination to let the sentences £tand. It hurts the courts for such men to be freed. They were given a fair trial, men of their own county heard the evidence and on this evi dence they were convicted. Prisoners in jails are due protec tion and they will get that protection only when the public knows the law will give it to them. If these men were turned loose it might encourage people in some other section to take the law into their own hands, > It Is the certainty of the law rath er than the severity of the law* that really counts, we admit, but these mob members have not been given se vere sentences. We might as well tear our courthouses down if we are to free everyone who can offer petitions and.pleas. SOUTH AS CENTER OF CERAMIC INDUSTRY. The Southern Field, published by the Southern Railway, points out that “while the expansion of the cotton mill industry is the subject of most frequent comment, industrial growth has been and is now rapidly proceed ing along lines of groat diversity. There remains a great opportunity for utilizing an abundant supply of un | toadied raw materials suitable for the J manufacture of ceramics, aw Well' hh i a great variety of minerable and chem ical products.” There is another matter to be con sidered in this connection—a market for these goods. The ttmth offers tine rail transportation facilities and at the same time offers unusually tine trade advantage with the Latiu Aiuor-. ican countries Short routes to the South Atlantic and Girls jMirts afford !, ? equal.opportunity for t)ie development of commerce w ith 4JI |*jrts u s. 4the » world. < ' ' “• “There is no part of the United 1 1 States.” says The Southern Field, “so - j well suited (or the profitable develop j ment of all branches of the ceramic 1 industry as is the territory served by ? the Southern Railway System. > "The Appalachian and Piedmont regions abound in feldspar and resid ual kaolins. In the lower Piedmont are some of the finest sedimentary kaolins to be found in thp world* In Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi there are ball clays. Other clays and brick shales abound throughout the territory. Excellent deposits of. high grade silica are Available in many lo calities. “Baukite,” the new refract ory being produced at Apison, Tenn., is probatfy the best material in the United States for use-in baggers and furnace linings. Coal from the fields of Kentucky, Southwestern Virginia, Eastern Tennessee and Alabama, is delivered to industrial plants through out the territory at prices below those paid by many of the ceramic plants in the North, while bydfo-electric cur rent is available throughout the terri tory for power and lighting. ' • “Not the least of the advantages of ceramic manufacturing in this reg ion is that it is- surrounded by the rapidly growing Southern market and is conveniently located with refer ence to the markets of all other parts j of the country, with effiffieffiient transportation byway of the gateways at Washington, Cincinnati, Louisville, St. Louis, Memphis and New Or leans. “One of the most far reaching eco nomic facts of the present is the rapid growth of the Southern market and especially its tendency, with increas ing prosperity, toward the finer grades of goods of all kinds. This means that there is an increasing southern demand, not only for the coarser, cheaper wares, but for the finest por celains. “Formerly a region of wooden buildings, the South is turning more and more to bricks tile and concrete construction, and* in the newer build ings large use is being made of flood ing tiles, glassed tiles, porcelain sani -<gry wear and electric porcelain. Roofing tile, as it is a heat insulating material, is especially suited for use in the South. Though furnishing much of the material used in its man ufacture, most of the pottery used in its manufacture, most of the pottery used in the South, from the coarsest earthen ware to the finest porcelains, is shipped in from northern potter ies. The growing Southern markets, taken in Connection with the advant ages enumerated above, make the South an inviting field for all kinds of ceramic manufacturing. It is well to talk diversification in the South. We can become famous for more reasons than our textile su premacy. We have the same oppor tunity in other fields as we have in the cotton mill field and we can make just as much from these opportunities if we will seize them. DO THEY WANT PHYSICLYNS? Public Health Bulletin in a recent issue shows that many persons who died in North Carolina during 1924 were not attended in their last illness by physicians. In this county foe in stance, 24 unattended deaths were re ported during 1924. This report may be somewhat mis , leading. It may lead the public to believe that physicians are not doing their duty, that they refuse to wait upon these people for some reason, or that they are indifferent. That may be the case with some of the deaths but there are other things to be con i sidered also. A survey of reports submitted by ‘ registrars of vital statistics will show ! for instance, that many persons die s suddenly and are not attended by a “ As a result the death cer s tificates for such deaths are not sign i ed by a physician. Many times per i -sons are opposed to having a phys » ieian. They belong to some sect or i Lave some religious belief that makes them shun calling a physician. In other cases deaths occur without the knowledge of a physician, relatives of the sick persons neglecting to call one. * It is unpleasant to meditate on these unattended deaths, for some of them probably could have been avoid ed, yet the physicians are not to be Jblamed. While it is true that physi <vans in many cities carry their “black lists” with them, we are cerftain the majority disregard the list when it is a matter of life and death. URGES. FARMERS TO ATTEND DEMONSTRATIONS R. D. Goodman Wants Farmers to , Take Advantages of Opportunities Opened to Them. It. IX Goodman, county farm agent, announces several demonstra tions for the county the week, also urges farmers to attend these demonstrations. R.

The sputter of a motorcycle en gine, the clatter of changing gears, the leap of a chawjing motor, a wild scramble to safety, and it was all over. Thus is described the longest ride ever taken by Patrolmen 1 fetor Holdsbrooks of the Concord police department, over a course not more than 30 feet long. The rotund officer / started Friday afternoon to Corbin street to kill a dog, and desiring to reach his destina tion as soon as possible com mandeered the police department motorcycle which was standing i Q front of the city hall. Officer Hold brooks is an efficient chauffeur but he Also is particular about his dress and being without leggings and knowing the tendency of the/" motor cycle to throw oil and- grease as it bounds along, he sought a driver., A man standipg nearby toM the officer be could manage the motor cycle. He assured the officer that he knew all there was to know about such machines. The trouble lay in the faet that he knew motorcycles in general but not this one in particular. This machine has long done most valient ’uty for the city and has sb nearly run its course that a new one has been ordered to replace it. The steering apparatus is not all that it should be, the gas intake is peculiar in that it “opens up” with a bang, and the “get-away” is a delight to those per sons who want to be on the way right now- , Holdbrooks took the seat of, honor in the sidecar, and with a gentle “pour it in her” set himself for a pleasant ride. The motor of the machine sputter ed madly as the volunteer chauffeur trammed on the starter,- the, gears slipped into place with a clatter and the machine made a wild dive for the curbing near the Sanitary Grocery Store. No mention of worn-out brakes had been made to the impromptu driver, but in the short distance from in front of the city hall to the curb ing he learned the fact. ,2le applied every known remedy of " machinery and when these failed the threw both feet to the ground and with the aid of several baskets of * vegetables stopped the machine just as it start ed" on a smashing trip through the big plate glass windows of the grocery store. Patrolmen Holdbrooks jn - the meantime was helpless to aid him self or the driver. When the machine bit the curbing with a thud that at tracted many persons he was thrown several feet in the air and though he used every trick known to an acro bat he could land nowhere except in the seat of the cavorting cycle. When the motor was finally stopped the of ficer was the first to dismount. One glance at the smashed vegetable baskets, another look at the wild machine and the officer was away on foot to find the dog. He was in fine mood for a murder.

A Father in Israel Gone. N; C. Christian Advocate. Jacob Rufus Barnhardt, the father of Rev. J. Hi Barnhardt, presiding el der of the Winston-Salem district, and of the late Rev. Z. E. Barnhardt, died at his home near Mount Pleas ant, January 28 and Was buried Sat urday afternoon, January 30. at Celd Springs Church. He never fully re covered from the hurt he sustained when he fell from a wagon almost three months ago? However, he seem ed to be improving and bad begun to walk about the house when he devel oped pneumonia and died almost sud denly. Tbe funeral was conducted by his pastor, Rev. W. L. Scott, assisted by Rev. N. R. Richardson, a former pastor. “Uncle Jake.” as he was lovingly known throughout the entire country surrounding his home, was a strong, influential man. He was the. father pf eleveen children, all of whom be came loyal Christian citizens, and two of whom, as above mentioned, became 'mihisters of distinction, filling the highest appointments within the gift of the W. N. C. conference. He serv . ed as a steward in the Methodist Church for almost three score years and ten and was a pillar in tbe progr *ress of Methodism in Cabarrus coun i ty. He is survived by his wife and seven children, 47 grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. besides a . host of relatives and friends who hon . or his name. He lived a little more than 89 years in the service of God and of his church and he remained active, rarely ever missing a service. His seat in the church is strangely cant and his presence sorely missed, but the principles for which he stood and his bodly influence still live and count for righteousness in this world. To Raise Road Near New Impounding Dam, Members of the water and light board of Concord conferred Wedkes day with the county highway commis* sion relative to a new road at the impounding dam to be erected to in crease the city’s water supply. It was decided at the meeting to leave the present location of the road and to make the necessary changes by raising the roadbed. This can be done at less cost than changing 'the road and will serve the same pur pose, it was stated after the meet ing. It. was stated by one member of the commission that an. effort is being made now to get a tax rebate from the state. Since its organization several years ago. it is pointed out, the county commission has been pay ing a State tax on. all gasoline used for. construction purposes. UiSfer a recent' ruling of the attorney general , of the state a: rebate is frilotted ,on •j this gasoline during a certain period, and the local commission will eon (tend, it is said, that if the law ap plied to one period it applies to the entire period since thre local commis* . sion was organized, so a rebate for the entire period will be sought.
