Stanley’s New Welfare Officer. Speaking of David S. Lippard, a former Concord man, who was recent ly elected welfare officer of Stanly county, the Albemarle News-Herald says: “The election of Air. Lippard will please the many friends of the wide awake, public spirited and energetic Alillingport man, and that he will hold down his new position with credit to himself and honor to the county, none of his friends doubt. “Mr. Lippard is not inexperienced in this line of work. He served for four years as County Superintendent of Public Schools of Caflarrus county, served one year as head of the public I schools of Kannapolis and taught one year at Jackson Training School. And yet he is a young man, just past 3tj years of age. •' u He married a Stanly county girl and moved to this county seven years ago. Since coming to this county, Mr. Lippard has conducted a farm near Alillingport and run a large gen eral store at that place, both of which have prospered wonderfully in the meantime.” Attending Executive Afeeting.

He hastened to woo her, and sweetly he wooed, For his love grew until to a mountain it grewed, And what he was longing to do thep he doed. In secret he wanted to speak and lie spoke, To seek with his lips what his heart long had soke; So he managed to let the truth leak, and it loke‘. He asked her to % ride to the church, and they rode; They so sweetly did glide that they both thought they glode, And they came to the place to be tied, and were toed. Then homeward, he said, let us drive, and they drove, And as soon as they wished to arrive, / the arrove, For whatever he couldn’t contrive, she controve. The kiss he was dying to steal, then he stole; At the feet where he wanted to kneel he knole; And he said, “I feel better than ever I foie.” So they to each other kept clinging and clung, While Time his swift current was winging, and wung; And this was the thing he was bring ing and brung; The man Sally wanted to catch, and had caught; That she wanted from others to snatch and had enaught, Was the one she now liked to scratch, and she scrauglit. • And Charley’s warm love, began freez ing and froze, While he took to teazing, and cruelly toze The girl lie had wished to he squeez ing and squoze. “Wretch!” he cried, when she threat ened to leave him and left. “How could you deceive me, as you have deeeft?” And she answered, “I promised to cleave and I’ve cleft.” —Phoebe Cafy. > Baffling the Mosquito. New "tork, July 14.—The mosquito season is here again, and as mosquito bites are always painful and irritat ing, and may also be very dangerous, some hints as to how to keep the pests away probably will be welcome. Tests have proved that certain col ors attract mosquitoes and others re pel them. On the trunk of a tree near a stagnant ditch various pieces of colored cloth were laid. In an hour 110 mosquitoes alighted on the dark'blue piece. DO on the black, and 73 on the brown and red pieces. But none went near the yellow cloth, and only two sampled the white. Half a dozen stung the light gray and pale green. As the ankle is the Tavorite place of attack, it follows that men should avoid socks of dark blue, black, or brown. If green or yellow are too startling, then white might be wojrn. Women’s stockings, being light in col or, are not popular with mosquitoes. The color deterrent, however, does not apply in the dusk to the extent that it does in the daytime. Then re sourcse must be had to the effect of scents. Ex]>erimeiits have proved that kerosene is most hated by mos quitoes and midges, but as the use of this is hardly practical when it comes to applying it to the person, the next best thing must be used. This is eu calyptus oil. If this is not available, tlu*n peppermint can be used. A small quantity of either dabbed on the an kles is effective. For thq wrists and neck, where something more pleasant is required, lavender water, in which p lump of camphor has been dissolved, is best. Ammonia is also good, but it has to he renewed every* hour or so. Once-a-year Lawbreaker. Belfast. July 14. —Quiet enough was this week's celebration of Orangeman’s Day. once the invariable occasion for broken heads and riots in Belfast. This year there was not even “The Annual Drummer” to disturb the peace. For many years, down to the time of his death quite recently, the man known as “The Annual Drum mer” would start through the streets beating a drum on each anniversary of the battle of the Boyne. A crowd collected, and the man was warned, then arrested. The first time he was released with a caution, but after wards he was fined, and repeated of- made the fines made no difference, and though 'dur ing the rest of the year his conduct was exemplary, he continued his one man celebration of Orangeman’s Day down to the time of his death. Florida Visitors in Concord. Air. and Mrs. Alex Orr, Jr., and family, of Miami, Fla., stopped in Concord a short time this morning with friends.

A flock of presents, including shoes, shirts, socks, ties, hose, candy, were given Hord for poling the first home run at Webb field, and also counting the first score. Merchants who ward ed the clever Concord shortstop are; Efird’s Department Store, Reliable Shoe Shop, Cline’s Pharmacy, Gibson Lie., Carolina Case, Perry Clothing Co., Gray Shop, Aierritt Shoe Co., Presslar Jewelry Co., Belk’s Depart ment tSore, Richmond-Flowe Co., and Porter Drug Co.

The Names the Thing. Those who read newspaper ar ticles signed Charles Lindbergh, “Babe*’ Ruth, Queen Alarie. “Gene” Tunney, Airs. Ruth Snyder or ' “Peaches” Browing are prone to in quire: “How do they do it?” Take Col. Lindergh for example. Ovations have kept him so busy that a great stretch of the imagination is required to picture this air hero sitting down to gravely write his experiences. The truth of the matter is that he doesn’t. Nor do the others men tioned. Whenever anyone bobs into promt nence press syndicates offer big money for the use of his or her namo. v 'lfe. it were not for the name many articles woukl carry little weight. Some are ridiculous at best. Frequently the person selling a name gives the syndicate carte blanche in anything it might say. Such was the case in the story giv ing intimate details about “Peaches” Browning's married life. Even the man who wrote it admits he is not overly proud of it. Articles to “fit” signatures are written by experienced writers whose names do not appear in con nection with their work. In other words, Queen Alarie’s recounting of her American trip, though it appears in the personal pronoun “I.” was really written by a man on this side of the Atlantic. The person selling his or her signature usually gives the “shadow" writer the benefit of a few but the real writer often has to use his imagination in order to grind out the necessary amount of copy. “Leg Shaper” Coming. The Pathfinder. The “leg shaper" is surely coming, said Airs. Edna Alurphy Albert, of Cincinnati, addressing a meeting of club women recently. It is her belief that signs reading “legs shaped while you wait” will be seen in beauty shops everywhere some day. She claims tlie short ekirt has made the architect of comely legs inevitable. Alen thrill ed when short skirts appeared, but they were Woefully disappointed be cause all tile women had to reveal was a disillusioned job lot of legs. “Beau ty specialists,” she continued, “cos metize a woman's complexion, lift her face, and marcel her hair, but legs have been left to work out their own destiny. The time has arrived when some method for making unshapely legs shapely seems imperative. Fill ing legs out with paraffin as facial surgeons do noses might be one way. Plaster casts that could be put on and removed like stockings might be another.” Bible School at New Bethpage.

TESTIFIES IN CASE OF RESCUE WORKERS Mrs. Johnson Tells Whj She Refused License To Operate Home. Charlotte, July Kate Burr Johnson, of Raleigh, State Commis sioner of Welfare, testified today be fore the grand jury in the case of American Rescue Workers, of this city, charged with soliciting alms here without city license. Mrs. Johnson, who has refused to grant a permit to the rescue workers to operate a home for delinquent girls, but which they are operating just the same, declared that three things stand in the way of permission to the rescue workers to operate the home. One is that they have not shown a need for the home. The second is that they have not tprovided a satisfactory gov erning board and the third is they have inadequate financial resources in the opinion of Mrs. Johnson. In addition, Mrs. Johnson said that the care of unmarried mothers is especially a care for women and that they, instead of men, should be the ones on the governing board. She said that the board now is made up almost entirely of men. Two women, members of the rescue baud, were arested here for soliciting funds without a permit and placed in jail. They were convicted in the city court and appealed to Superior Court. CHARLES STORES CO. TO HAVE CONVENTION Executives and Other Officials Will Meet in Raleigh July 20 and 21.
