SHOULD REACH AN UNDER,STANI>- _ ING. Wo- believe we are staying within the hounds of .reason when we declare that the majority of the people of Concord and Cabarrus County are anxious to see a hard-surfaced road constructed from Concord to Albemarle. The question of ■wliat Stanly is going to do with her Highway money, whether she will build the road to Concord or to Charlotte, is a question of vital importance to Con cord and Cabarrus people, and for that reason we feel the conference to be held in Albemarle on the 28th will be one of the utmost importance to this city uud county. And for that reason a represen tative group of men should attend the Sieeting. V„ Several Concord men this week visit ed Albemarle and talked with business - men there relative to the road. They reported that they were received with ev ery courtesy in Albemarle, by both sup porters aud opponents of their plan. Xo- Wbcre was there organized antagonism, the Concord men report, and while they gre not certain that they will be able to swing their project, they are at the same time anxious to get their side before the Stanley men. aud for that reason asked for another hearing. Tliis was granted, end under the direction of the Lions Club, another meeting will be held on file night of June 28th. Representatives of every organization in Concord should be present at the (neetiug. If Concord can show to the Albemarle men the justice of their claim for the road direct to Concord, we be lieve the Albemarle men will ask Com missioner Wilkinson to run the road here. The question is one for debate and since the Albemarle men have been kind enough to leave the matter open it be hooves Concord to send a representative Relegation to the meeting with facts and figures. We think we can understand the sit uation as viewed by many Albemarle aud ' Btanty county people. They already have a good road to Concord. Salisbury, . {Troy and many other nearby cities, but gt present they are not connected di- Jrectly with Charlotte. Therefore, they jp-ant to take this opportunity as pre sented to them and get this Charlotte road built with State money. Concord is contending that this would |>e in violation of the spirit and meaning of the State law. Also, that with a pav ed road from Concord to Albemarle and another from Concord to Charlotte, the few miles that would be saved in the lower road, would make no difference. Also, that the road direct to Concord is the more logical one. and will serve the greater number of i>eople. All these questions are debatable, we repeat, and at the meeting in Albemarle everyone will be given an opportunity to (express his views, and the.meeting prob ably will result iu something definite. RECORD FOR SAFE TRAVEL. Figures compiled by the safety de partment of the Southern Railway Sys tem show that a high degree of safety ' for passengers was accomplished diiring the year IKK when the Southern hand led a total of 17,668,600 passengers with < , out a single fatality to any passenger as , -the result of an accident to a train or pegligence on the. part of the railway. | A1 ’total; of 17JK)£* passenger trains | Jpre^e*operated; tjukjng jtbe year and -the (average distance traveled by teach 'pas ~J ganger was 02.17 miles. Had'one pas- V fcengef ridden -the entice distance that these passengers were carried, he wopld 4 .fcave traveled more than 44*000 times (the distance around the earth. I . Four passengers were killed as the i B ggauit of their own acts in violation of the safety rules established sots ' "their , protection. Os these, two fell from mov ; ing rains, one attempted to board a moving train and fell under it, and one jumped through the window of the coach > in which he was riding. These figures indicate that, while the Sonthern has attained a remarkable de gree of efficiency in protecting the pas sengers who ride on its trains, no re finement of protective features can in sure the safety of persons who careless ly or deliberately violate the common laws of safety and the rules which have been established for their protection. This record of the Southern is one -of the best ever made by any railroad in the United States. The Southern for several years has taken advantage of ev ery improvement that tends for safety, and its system today is as safe as any in the United States. TODAY’S EVENTS Thursday, June 14. 1923.

Chicago, June 13.—The greatest pe riod of prosperity this country has ever known is coming but whether it will set in this year or in 1324 or 15)25. it is unwise to predict. Harry A.

"While it is impossible to fixe the date of arrival of this vast prosperity," said Mr. Wheel er. “there is a word of wisdom every ■ business man should take heart. Pay no heed to croakers, the calamity l howl era. the pessimists. Conduct your busi ness with the though firmly iu mind that this prosperity is inevitably com ing. Be prepared for it.” 'Have Kidneys Examined By Your Doctor Take Salts to Wash Kidneys if : Back Pains You or Bladder ( Bothers Flush your kidneys by drinking a quart of water each day, also take salts occasionally, says a noted authority, who tells us that too much rich food forms acids which almost paralyze the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They become sluggish and weaken; then you may suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizzi ness,®your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the chan nels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. To help neutralize these irritating acids, to help cleanse the kidneys ana flush off the body's urinous waste, get four ounces of Jad Salts from any phar macy here; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days, and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for years to help flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys: also to neutralize the acids in the system so they no longer irritate, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; can not in jure and makes a delightful efferves cent lithia-water drink. By all means have your physician examine your kid neys at least twice a year.

Mothers of Famous Men ' The Mother of Jonathan Swift. j Abigail Erick Swift certainly had hers troubles—and Some women seem to have! more than their share of them. She came of a good old English family, took her heart and fortune in her kfnds and married Jonathan- Swift, much against! the entreaties of her people, because her marriage meant that she -would leave England and go to Ireland, I where Jona than would share in the prosperity of his brother, Godwin, Attorney-General in Tipperary. / ; It was a long, long way to Tipperary in those days, much longer than now. and going to Ireland meant leaving one's home and family and acquaintances, without much possibility of communication with them, for there were no telegraphs nor were there frequent boats, nor regular mails. Abigail Eriek loved the young steward and married him aud went to Ireland. Less than two years after that happy love-match Abigail Erick was a widow. Seven months after that happy love match had ended she bore a son, whom she named, in loving memory, after the dead husband. Those mouths of lonely grief, of bitter anguish, of wild (amen!, may have influenced tTic child—for all the world knows how Jonathan Swift grew' np to become the famous Derm Swift, to write the marvelous story qf "Gulliver’s Travels" and much other line literature, aud then to die in madness. His Ist range, brilliant nature appeared even in his earliest infancy, and made everyone love him. He was only a year old when his mother missed him. "Where is tile baby!" she cried. But there Was no baby! The nurse, attracted by the child's bright ways, laid kidnapped him, and had carried Itiin off to England! The mother was frantic. After a long tinie she found where he was;- but he was so sickly, so thin, so much in-heed of quiet, that she left him for three years ip Eng land, where the nurse took good care of him and taught him to read the Bible. Then the mother suffered still more, for she had only about SIOO a year, and finally had to give up the child altogeth er to his rich uncle, the Attorney-General. So it was that she longed for him. and lie for her, and mothep-love could ne\‘er do its work for Jonathan Swift. Next: Agnes Hunter, Mother of Dav id Livingston.
