The protest of the Methodist Church against permitting the appearance in any place controlled by the church of speak ers or teachers whose messages are "cal culated to disturb the religious faith of the people" is startling. Has God’s truth then become so enfeebled that it will fall unless it is propped up by rules and regu lations and the suppression of any new idea? An ancient writing informs us that a certain Israelite ouee decided that the Lord was incompetent to take care of His own without a little assistance from the Israelite in question; so he “put forth ids hand" to steady the tottering ark. The result, according to that ac count. was death. In so far as the rule applies strictly to the M'-thodist Episcopal Church. South, the Daily News has no opinion to express regarding it: but we are entirely sure that what the Methodists under take to enforce, and do enforce, within their own congregations they are pretty sure jo undertake to enforce in the state MEMORIAL SERVICE FOR LVTE HENRY S. PURYEAR Service Held Tuesday Afternoon in the Court House by Members of Concord Bar Association. Members of the Concord Bar Associa tion paid a last tribute of respect to a deceased member Tuesday afternoon when they conducted a memorial service to the late Henry !‘‘ Puryear. who died here last week at the home of his sister. Mrs. James C. Gibson. Fitting tribute to the honor of tile de ceased member was paid by the present members of the Concord bar. of which Mr. Puryear at the time of his death, was tlie senior member. Short eulogies were delivered by several members of lilt- bar and in addition resolutions of l-espeet wen adopted and prepared addresses were read by Mr. M. H. Caldwell and Mr. F. T. Jlai-tsell. Judge X. A. Sinclair, who is presiding at the present term of Cabarrus Super ior Court, presided at tin- meeting and acted as elrtm-man. Mr. John M. Ogles by was made secretary oKthe meeting which was held immediately after court convened after the noon recess. Mr. Caldwell in his address declared that Mr. Puryear was a successful law yer because he put the well-being of his client before tnouby. He entered a ease lo win, regardless of the financial status 1 of his client. Mr. Caldwell pointed out. and in all dealings with members of the bar Mr. Puryear was the soul of honor. Mr. Hartse.il, who was associated for a short while with Mr. Puryear while the latter was active iu Ids profession, de clared that the greatest tribute he could pay to the deceased was’to point out his 1 sense of honor. Mr. Puryear. Mr. Hai l - sell declared, was never known to strike I below the belt, and he possessed one of the greatest legal minds ever possessed j by a Concord attorney. Mr. Frank Aj-mfield declared that al though he never had the privilege of serving actively with Mr. Puryear In had learned to know the deceased as a gentleman and a scholar of the old school, who impressed him by }iis gentleness and wide knowledge. Mr. H. S. Williams said tie bait often talked with Mr. Puryear aud that each conversation had been an inspiration. Mr. Puryear, lie said, followed a high stand ard in all dealings with his fellowman. Mr. Oglesby paid tribute to the sense of honor which controlled every- action of Mr. Puryear. No utn-jMr. Oglesby said, could talk to or lie associated with Mr. Puryear without being struck with his devout practice of honor. Mr. J. Fee Crowell in a short address mentioned Mr. Pr.ryear’s great love for the out-of-doors and said that in his rec reation as in his work Mr. Puryear never took advantage of anything. Mr. Pur year would no sooner kill a bird out of season than he would take advantage of a person in the court room. Mr. Crowell added. Judge Sinclair pointed out that while he never had the privilege of knowing Mr. Puryear he had heard enough about him to know that his life should serve us an inspiration to other lawyers aud es pecially to young lawyers. "The ethics of liis profession were keenly guarded by Mr. Puryear." Judge Sinclair pointed out, "and that is one of the most import ant things for any lawyer to do. I have never seen an instance in which it paid a lawyer to be unethical." FAIRFAX HARRISON IS INSPECTING AT SPENCER President aud Otlier Southern Railway Officials Lookiug Over the Shops. Spencer. Oct. 22. —Headed by Presi dent Fairfax Harrison, of the Southerly railway, a party of officials and direc tors of the road spent tonight here mak ing an annual ispoction of the Spencer, shops, yards anil other property. The party traveled in a special train of five private ears which wriV parked here for the night. The officials were given a, glad hand in this vicinity by several thousand employees who take delight in the annual visits aud endeavor to show the heads of departments that Speneei is one of the most important points or the whole system. The officials fount the shops, yards and other places iu the pink of condition with the largest ant busiest force of men in the history o the plant turning out engines and car* on record time. A vast amount of re pair work for both locomotives and box ears is being done here now with indica tions of more and more work to follow, lairge numbers of new meu have been employed here recently until it is said the force is 20 per rent, larger than even during the war peak.

If scientific- truth cannot be taught in Methodist schools, is any Methodist going to be content to see it taught in any other schools? If knowing the facts that scientists have discovered will damn a Methodist youth, will it not just as effectively damn any other? Any new fact whatsoever, if it is a fart of the first importance, is “calcu lated to disturb the religious faith of the people." Every- great figure in history, has disturbed the religious faith of the people. Jesus Christ "was executed ’fog doing that very thing. Martin Luther was excommunicated for doing it. John Wesley was [mi-scouted for doing it. The Methodists, in fact, are taking precisely the state that, taken by the Anglicans, filled the life of their great fouuder with tribulation. We do not believe that any power un der heaven could bnve rompolletl John Wesley to vote for that resolution, or could have prevented him from denounc ing it on the tioor of the conference. BUSINESS AND THE OUTLOOK Philadelphia Record. Railroads are doing an unprecedented volume of business. Car loadings Fu tile week of October tltli were a little below those of the previous week, but that week surpassed all records. Car loadings for 3i( weeks this year wore 19 per cent, above last year and 28 per cent, above 1021. Each month this year, in tlie compila tion of Dun’s Review, shows an increase iu building operations over the corre sponding month of last year. The gain in September was only 3 per cent., blit •outside of New York it was 8 per cent., and for the entire country for nine months it was 27 tier cent, above 1022. Hank clearing iu .October so far have averaged 13.8 per cent, less than--last year, although commodity prices are higher. The decrease is due to smaller transaction on the New York Stock Ex change. Call loans and time money in New York have been lower on light de mand. In Philadelphia tlie money mar ket shows some increased activity, and there have been many inquiries front out of town banks. Foreign trade tor September makes an unusually good showing. Experts were 87ll.IHIil.IHHI greater than in August, due, to a very large increase in the shipments of cotton. The exports were the largest except last January since March. 1921. The imports were $20,000,009 less than in August, tiiul were the lowest for more than a year, and $43,000,000 less than in September. 1922., The favorable bal ance in September was .$120,000,000, while for the year it has been very low. The atitounmal improvement in busi ness is not so general or so extensive as was hoped for. Conditions are uneven: there is substantial buying in some lines and restricted demand in others. There I lias been curtailment of production, and where current business is fairly satisfac-' fury there : s an indisposition to buy for the future. Producers are not inclined to anticipate demand. There is price yielding in some lines and strong resist ance to increases. in some in stances exceed present requirements. Pittsburgh reports' rfii Improvement ov er September iu buying fiu’shed steel products. The market is stronger aud more active than for some months. (Or der- for the first half of October are bet ter than in ai# similar period since May. The steel men ate lookiug forward to a very good winter, aud are hinting at higher prices. There has been a good deni of curtailment ifi pig iron output, nnil several grades are 50 cents to $1 lower than a week ago. The composite price (-omjjHed by The Iron Age is lower, than for nearly a a half. Coke is s<> less than a year ago. but more evens have gone out.j- The textiles are irregular, and restric i tion of output has increased in cotton and silk mills, and there is a eurtail |of ginghams iu New England and the South. Sales of print cloths in Fall River drop|ied to 30.1 pieces. Woolen manufacture makes a better showing, but machinery in operation will not gain much till a new fall selling season begins. One market report says: “Cottons, silks anil woolens are faced with a much more' uncertain outlook than at any time for more than a year." V’ 1 One trouble with cotton goods is the rising 111-ice of the ravf material. 11l the New York market tjie 01-toiler option, which had gone below 27 4-2 cents the previous week, rose to* 3(1 1-4 last week. The Chicago wheat market was listless. A slight drop early iiii the week was! quickly recovered. Argentine estimates of a milch larger wheat crop than a year ago had something to do with the selling.’ December wheat ill Chicago had lost six cents from the recent high point, hut at the end of the week there was a firm undertone, and prices had advanced near ly a cent. Wheat exports this season have been only about half of those of last year, which is attributed to the price at which American wheat has been held. Retail business this year seems to have been uncommonly good. Department dole sales are reported to have set a lew pace, aud the business of the lead* ng mail order houses promises to ex eed that of any year except 1919 and '920. As the mail order business is l nattily iu the fanning districts, this gives) ome indication of the condition of the, annei's as a whole. \ Won First yPlace. <By t»* Associate* Press.* Raleigh, N. €., Get. 24. —The team from i the Creedniore High School wou first !
