HAILS PROSPERITY AHEAD. i 1 Hotel Manager Says Visiting Merchants , Expect Business Spurt. „ New York Times. 1 No surer barometer of business con ditions throughout the country wui be , found than in the big hotels of New York, were men of every line of in dustry are found at this time, accord ing to Arthur L. Lee. manager of the ; McAlpiu and Martinique hotels. Mr. J.ee. who had talks with many merchants during the past week, says, the coining Fall and Winter promise prosperous , conditions all over the country. Buyers who visited the market early in the Summer are returning to place larger Fall and Winter orders, lie says, having misjudged their customers buy ing power at home. Mr. I-ce says many New York manufacturers were ‘'bear ish" and influenced the small town •store-owner to buy lightly, even when he came to market with the intention of tilling his shelves with new goods. This attitude. Mr. Lee points out. is hurting their own business, and repeating t|ie condition of a few years ago when New York's pessimism spread over the coun try and brought about, or aided in the business depression.

The Singing Class of Oxford Orphan age will give a concert at the Central Graded Schuol ,m Monday! August 27. at 8 o'clock. This class lias won an enviable reputation for giving concerts of a high character—concerts that are Ifcoth entertaining and uplifting. We are I publishing below some comments on the concert given by this Class from which it appears that, it .is quite up to the high standard heretofore established and we believe that all who attend can be as sured of a pleasant and profitable eve ning. The 14 girls and boys in the Oxford Orphanage Singing Class are represent ing about 380 children in that splendid institution. Hear them sing and see how you like them. The Durham Herald says: The Singing Class of the Oxford Or phanage was greeted last uiglit by the largest audience that has yet attended the concerts that are given every year, as well as. bring one of the largest audiences ever gathered in the Academy of Music. Approximately 2.000 people were present, with every seat occupied, chairs in the aisles, and people standing along the sides and rear of the lower floor and the two balconies tilled to overflowing. The concert was exceptionally good, the children disported themselves in a style that was worthy of profesiouals. The song numbers wore good ami the ' Class included several voices of mere than passing merit. little folks were good and showed not the slightest degree of nervousness. The Cotton MUI Strike.

( Special to New York \\ or ip ] Washington. Aug. 19.—Progressive ( Republican leaders plan to force Brefci- , dent Coolidge into the open on leading ] political issues, preparatory to opposing j liis nomination for l’resident in 1924. ] Conferences already have been held and final decision on a program is await ii#h*he return of Senator LaFollette, of Wisconsin, from Europe. At pres ent the Coolidge opposition is centering around Hiram Johnson of California, whose three minute call on the Bresi dent lias been the measure of his expres- ' sion of support of the new administra- 1 tion. Whether the mantle of progres- ( siv.e leadership finally will be cast about ] the shoulders of Johnson or La Follette I depends largely upon the attitude of the Wisconsin leader who left the United i States with the threat of a third party movement uppo-fifis lips. Opposition to the candidacy of Presi dent Coolidge in 1921 has been manouv red by the Executive into a position of sullen sileuee and watchful waiting. Be yond liis declaration that he proposes to carry out the Harding policies, Bresident lias not committed himself, and even the pledge to carry out the Harding program was accompanied by a reservation. ’ , Krriom of Action Retained. - The Bresident takes the position that even if Bresident Harding had lived there would have been changes in his attitudes, and therefore similar changes 'in position may be expected under the new regime. With this interpretation the Bresident becomes the interpreter of what changes would have taken place. , which leaves him a liberal freedom of action. Among the questions upon which it lias been decided to force a showdown to demonstrate whether the new. l’resi dent is to be classed as a reactionary or as a progressive are the following: The transportation question, involv ing support or opposition to the demand for reduced freight rates and a reduc ttion of the valuation of the roads upon which legitimate carings are based. Ite-opening of thjp tariff question with wholesale reductions, now being demand ed by tlie Middle tYcst ern funnel’s. A subject which is (proving embarrassing to the aspirations of Hiram Johnson. , The. World Court question and foreign policy. The ’soldier bonus, vetoed by Bresi dent Harding, but certain to be pro jected into the new Congress. Revision of the Revenue Imw and , reduction of taxes on small incomes, to-- i gether with a differentia) between taxes paid on earned and unearned incomes. New farm legislation looking to sta bilization of the price of wheat and i amelioration of the situation confvont i ing the farmers. I Revival of the ship subsidy battle and 1 j determination of the attitude of the ad ■ l ministration toward the Government • j Merchant Marine. f I These are but a few of, the questions 1 j which the Brogressives plant to put be s j fore the Bresident with the belief that 1 I shortly after Congress convenes the - Bresident will have been forced to place j all his cards upon the table. Advantage With Coolidge. The Coolidge opposition realizes the Bresident lias the advantage nt' the out set, since their batteries win have to re main masked for a considerable period, and. in the meantime, the man in the White House will be in good position to perfect bis organization and lineup del egates. The appointment of C. Bns coinb Slemp as private secretary, togeth er jvith the speed , with (vhicli Senator Moses was taken into camp in New Hampshire. indicates the Bresident works fast and is not disposed to over look chances. • Lack of cohesion in their own ranks l as to leadership also works to the ad vantages oi the Bresident and much of the success of tliejr attack will depend upon the nature of"the entente that will be established between Hiram Johnson and Senator LnFollette. Senator Borah, of Idaho, also lias to be considered, and Borah has issued a statement which looks like approval of klie Coolidge leadership. Tuttle to Re Arraigned For Murder Tuepdss. Greensboro.

A number us fellows were settin' on Dowd's benches ferninst Ui« and Vann's drug store the other evening when- the subject of candy came up. One young man stnted that the candy business in Monroe is good—that a drug store nowa days that didn't average selling on to ward a thousand dollars' worth a mouth ' ajas not getting its share in the sale of sweets. "Why,” said he. “I can re- , member the time not so long ago when 1 *your girl didn't expect more than a - pound box. Now oj»e is considered a t piker if he don't carry her from three to ‘ five pounds at least, and ou special oe “ cusions a bix box or young trunkful of eight to ten pounds. Yes. sir, t girls. ] too, nowaday have a habit of turning flip ] * their dear little noses if a glollar-and-a- i - half-pound quality is not served.” j “Well, I never gave a girl a box of . candy in my life.” stated a quiet young 1 fellsw who lutd been intently listening * in on the edifying conversation. “No, and maybe that's the reasop you - am't got no wife,” chaffed a friend. “If a fellow spends all his money for r Vandy, how can he afford to marry?” was the query. t The concensus of opinion was that - the high cost of lowin' is makin’ a lot of old bachelors as well as old maids, * but another young man stated to his - thinking chocolates were uot near so f good a« pep'miots—his choice, and de l plored extravagance. . . 1 And still another said fine candies t were bad on digestive organs, and be sides rotted the girls’ teeth.* ~ > The latter statement in regard to de t raying molars reminded me of * the old f story, a classic, of my boyhood days: “Mother," queried Tommy, it any harm to say ‘Rotterdam’ r “Why, no son; that's a city in Hol land.” expMhed. mamma. “Well then,” exclaimed the yqptfg » hopeful, “sister ha*s taken my candy, and s I only hope it will ‘rotterdam* teeth s tmt!” f «, r Home Mwchants Should Tell the People a «f Their Goods.
