STANDARD BUICK 1 : COMPANY Opposite City Fire Dept, j iiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiniiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ; CFPID’S STOCK EXCHANGE IS BOOMING IN GERMANY | Fewer Births and Fewer Deaths Tlian Before the War. But Marriage 1 accuse Clerks are Very Busy. (Correspondence of Associated Press.) ) Berlin, Alay 24:—Fewer babies are being born in .Germany now than before the war and fewer people are dying, but the marfiage license clerks are doing more business than during 1918. The Germans say there is a boom in the roar-, j riage market: "after every war." j The state of Hamburg lived up to its name of having the most attractive "fratileins" in the republic. It chalked up a wedding record of about 15 to every 1.000 inhabitants. Sclyaumburg-lappe, a little to the South of, Hamburg and in romantic proximity to Steinliuder Lake, ran a close {.second with 14 to every 1 1.000. Saxony's proportion stopped at! slightly over 12, while Berlin city’s was 1 only 12.8. The most timid bachelors in all Germany appear to live in the mouu- j famous state of Wnlileek. in the Weser seven weddings to every 1,000 residents, seven weddings- to every 1,00 Oresidents. And yet the Waldeck boys have not such faint hearts as before the war, when their average was only 5.4. The statistics for Wuertteuburg. Aleck-: leiiburg-Schweriu, and Aleeklenburg- Strelti* have not yet been received at , official headquarters here: not including these three states. Germany’s marriage ’ ratt the past year was 10.9 for every 1.000 inhabitants, compared with onlv 6.6 in 1913. i Babies appeared in the states reported at the rate of 23 for every 1,000, as against a proportion of 28.9 before the war. Most of the births were register- , ed in Upper Silesia and the least in Berlin. The former’s proportion was ap-’ praKimatel.v 32, the latter’s less than 12. Germans have been dying at the rate of 12.5 out of each 1.000 the past 12 months, while in 1913 death was taking a proportionate toll of about 15. Upper Silesion, which had the highest birth rate. also led in the ratio of deaths. A Surprise Party. On Friday night a number of friends 1 of Al\s Ethelila I. neberger gave her a surprise party. , She was surprised very much indeed. Alany games were played and many | danced throughput the evening. Delicious refreshments were served by j Airs. I.ineberger. At a late, hour the guests returned to their homes, wishing her many more sueli parties. !

In "swinging around the corner’’ the pilst week I found myself domicillctV tor ! a couple of days iu the very pretty and ! thriving town of Kannapolis. True the town did not spring up over night, but since its birth its growth hits been so rapid that it has almost startled the natives, and has caused most everybody to “sit up and take notice.” I In my boyhood days and even in young facturing plant and a market for all the necessities of life being established at this point was preposterous. Such a thought would have been only the vaporina of a diseased brain, and its originator only a fanciful dreamer. But all this has been realized and the end not yet. Pretty paved streets, nice ( residences, general stores, drug stores, j grocery stores, repair shops, garages, ele gant churches.-spacious school buildings, and a mammoth cotton mill, which in the | 1 production of towels, surpasses anything in the known world. This great ac- j oomplishmont was projected through the i fertile brain of the late Mr. James IV. j Cannon, of Concord, N. who, during ( i his life, accumulated a fortune, 1 am ( advised, of more than four million dot- ] ; lars. He was a genius in the art of j finances. This towel manufacturing I plant is a wonder, the buildings are im- ] mense, and the output almost staggering ( ito the belief. Through the courtesy of I Mr. Roy l’ropst, manager of oue of the departments, I was permitted to pass i ' through and view the machinery and the I output. In one room was eight hun dred looms and in another room thirteen i hundred looms all in active movement 1 •and these are only a portion of the great ] machinery involved. I was told that i the capacity of the mills in raw cotton 1 was four hundred and fifty bales per day, and the payroll in one department . alone, whicli was only one-fourth, aggre gated more than seventy thousand dollars a month. Towels, towels, towels! , Turkish towels, plain towels,, big towels, little towels, white towels, and stripped I towels, and rooms full of towels, a fac i tory full of towels, aud towels for the world. I was amazed. Usually my imagination is vivid enough. Some ; times, like Indian rubber, it stretches a ; bit. but in this instancy I found my vo ; eabulnry of adjectives insuffitueht for the I ! task of description. I was rather con- I j fused at the immensity of thing but not as much befuddled as an old lady some years ago. In times past there , was a cotton factory at Milledgville on the Yarkin River in Montgomery county. This old Indy knew of the factory but up to the time indicated had neger vis- | ited it. One day, gathering herself up. she went and while she stood and looked at, and listened to the hum and whir of the machinery, in amazement she ex claimed "The works of God are wonder ful. but what are they compared to the works of man.” The Cannon Manu facturing Company, 1 learn, owns not , only the mills but a large per cent of the homes in- this, the largest towel manufacturing city in the'world. Sani tary rules and regulations, not only in the mills, but in the homes are scrupu lously carried out. The operatives, a majority of whom are girls and women, are splendid specimens of humanity, their lieaithfulness and pleasant demean or indicating that their environments were such as to not only promote hpysi cal health, but to create a feeling of con tentment and real happiness. My brother, Texas, was much over joyed at the wonderful progress that our good old home county, Cabarrus, has made during his long absence. •Oldest woman postmaster in the United States is Mrs. Ellen M. Bolles, seventy-five, who for the past ten years has been in charge of the postoffice in Lumberton, N. A movemeht has been started in the Episcopal Church to give the same op portunities for theological training as men. 1 K. OF P. NOTICE. I Regular meeting Concord Lodge No. 51 K\ of P.
