PAGE EIGHT CONCORD PEOPLE PAT TRIBUTE TO THE GREAT COMMONER (Coatinned From Page One) 1 as the crusader for ('hri»f. lives. No man had more friends nor did any man have more bitter enemies. No man since Lincoln had such a fortunate death, for, said Mr. Caldwell, many men lived too long. Bryan, however, died at a time when there was a halo around his head and future generations woti.d lefer to him as the defender of faith. When t.iis country was founded, con-; tined Mr. Caldwell, infidelity stalked thej land and the name of God was left out i of the constitution. Bryan's great, achievement was his defense of the Bible j and he will be known by his defense of j last Sunday. j» j Kev. L. A. Thomas, in paying, his' tribute, said that some things speAk louder than the human .‘voice 1 .. "The. matc£itax life of this; man is one wo would think of t#iis afternoon. I would 1 add this tribute that in this century of i i<iolntry, and irreverance. we have one apostle of light. I pray that our , thoughts may reach the sublime heights j his reached/ f I Hope that we may find the childlike character, faith and hu mility he had. lam glad we have a j s atesman who can stand out at this 1 time.*’ I According to Prof. George F. McAl- * lister, it was a privilege to do honor for a man for win m he ha<l the greatest [ admiration since boyhood. "I remem- j her,’* *ae said, "the matchless speech be- 1 lore the Democratic convention which won the admiration of all present. To day are assembled in every town and city, scores of hundreds of people to pay i expect for a man who took a great stand for truth. He has been honored by gatherings since last Sunday as no other private citizen or public official. He stands out above the <*ommonaHty of humanity. He was great in the urn swerving loyalty to deep conviction, great in matchless power of his oratory.’* H. S. Williams declared that it was fitting and proper to pay respect for a man who lived before f.ie public thirty years and never did or said anything that catised the* 5 public to lose confidence in him. Words were inadequate, he said, to express what was realty felt by the people of the county. "The in fluence he exerts will continue to be wielded in thunder tones. Through all his fearless championship of things *uc believed to be right, he leaves something undying to posterity.” "The world,” said Rev. J. M. Var ner. "has every made much of military greatness. It has honored those who fight the battles for us. I ask you if the world has not been tardy in taking notice of t'lie heroes of peaceV It is significant when one who has been an advocate of peace and good will among men has people stop their work for a service'to his memory. The picture 1 shall carry of him is not as a politician, not in the court room nor in his seat secretary of state. The picture I shall carry of him is as he sat in a little church and heard a sermon on tlie Gos l»el story. This is the secret of his power, his Christianity.” Mr. Frank Armfield declared that he gathered clearly from hte talks that nothing could be said of Col. Bryan's religion, nor of his politics, nor could anything be said of his eloquence. He could, he said, show the younger people something which they could hand down as the great American tradition. Mr. Armfield then traced the history of the efforts of the Democratic party which, led by Mr. Bryan, had made reforms in behalf of the working people, had reme died the taxation situation, had intro duced prohibition, had passed the White slavery law, had passed the Federal Re serve act and had given the women of the country suffrage. All the big re forms of the past quarter century could be traced, he said, to a groups of South ern and Western statesmen who were tal by Mr. Bryan. Dr. J. R. Pentuff announced that lie would be very brief in what he had to srty. He had been a neighbor to Mr. Bryan in Chicago, he said, and knew him | personally. He was always a hale fel-1 low, well met. He did not become em-1 K.L.CRAVEN & SONS I | PHONE 74 ! COAT s. ]!; %Mfl 1 J Plaster Mortar Colors I LATEST VICTOR RECORDS ' ■ <• . ■ - ; | and PLAYER PIANO ROLLS KIDD-FRIX Music & Stationery Co.

"I wrote Mr Bryan a week ago,” said Mr. Pentuff. "in order to encourage him in his work in Dayton. I have read Mr. Bryan's sjieecli and think it is the greatest docu ment prepared in the century. He ought to have lived twenty years longer.” It was here that Mr. t Pentuff brought out i his idea as to the manner of Mr. Bryan's I meeting death a! i.»e ha,ud of a "hired ! servant.” I Senatof W. A. Foil followed and de • eltred that he was not able to say any . thing on ace< unt of his ill health. He j had a few remarks which he wished to j leave with the audience. He heard, he [said, in IKJ)d, Mr. Bryan make his cross of gold speech. “William Jen nings Bryan Has been crucified on the [ cross of infidelity” Mr. Foil then read [a summary of the life of Mr. Bryan and followed wirh his discourse on evolution | The memorial exercises were adjourned aPer th<» benediction by Rev. M. R. j Gibson. Our Boasting Over-Done. State vi’le Daily. bVfcre”f>o has Wn made to com- ! paint* that schools are costing too o'U'-h. Mi*. A. T. Allen, head of the State educational denartment. is moved , •to remark that we have overdone the, j boasting of our progress *<> far ns ! i xchooV are concerned. "We have come | I to believe.” says Mr. Allen, "that we i have an efficient school system and that it is time to take a rest in educational effort and expenditure.” And then Mr. Allen takes the figures to show that we are as yet merely scratching the Mir- j face iii our educational work. Ten Southern States with a population of twenty-one millions. expended for si-lino’* in 1021-22. the ’ast year for which figures are available, the rise of ninety million dollars. Four Stntix. New York. California. Washington and Ore gon. with a population of sixteen mil lions. *pent for schools in the same jieriod I!>7 millions of dollars. That is to say. with five millions le*s population, they spent more than double the amount on their school* expended in the ten Southern States, including North Carolina. In the Southern group . the per capita expenditure is ; in the four State group it is sl2. "This means that trained brains from other part* of the Union will develop and exploit the South, for the South is not yet spending the money necessary to train its in du*trial leadership,” declares Mr. Allen. That is the answer to any complaint that we are spending too much money on schools. It is no answer to say that the other State* mentioned have more wealth and can afford better schools. We are boasting that we are spending more for roads than any of them, and it is onus* for boast. But it i* cause for shame if we fail to keep our schools in line with our progress in other lines. We will have to do that if we succeed. Development, real progress, and ignor ance don’t go together. Intelligence is required for real development- Spoiling Women. Editor New York Mirror: American girls are being ruined by kind treat ment. Husband* fuss over their wives: go in debt for them and spoil them in every way. Young men take girl* in taxis instead of the subway. It would do American women good to see how European* treat the sex. Many an ex travagant wife has been reformed by ap plication of a good leather strap. "Treat ’em rough” should be the motto for husbands to use.

I The Free Proa candidly takes no [stock in the report that Outturn Itorg ■ him, noted sculptor, wi 1 carve his con- I ception of a memorial to the ('oufeder ate Soldiers, which he begun on Stone Mountain. Georgia, upon the slopes of a mountain at Chimney Hock in this State—except to discount the undertiik . >ng. In the first place, Che memorial I idea was not the conception of Rorglum. although he must be given credit for j developing the suggestion. In the second place, tile niemorinl idea was never in tended to immortalize a sculptor and give him oppor;unity to crown a suc cessful career with the capstone of his achievement. Not nt all. The motive im peding interest in the carving of Stone Mountain was the perpetuation of heroism of Southern soldiers, the carv ing in solid granite the figures of the be loved Lee nud Jackson and their as sociates. In this connection, the Greensboro News asks some very pertinent ques tions. Our contemporary says among other thlngw: ■‘Has any representative body of Confederates, from the I’nited Con federate Veterans, from the Daughters of the Confederacy, from the Sons of Confederate Veterans, from the Children of the Confederacy, been advised of this undertaking? Has any of .them acted upon it ? Has any other body of men or womep or both, nny organization of any sort, bet'll advised of the project except by reading the newspapers and has any action been taken? Has any inquiry been made of any Confederate organiza tion as to whether it is interested in having in North Carolinn such a memorial as is now talked about,? Is this to be a gift of Mr. Rorglum, and those who have assured him of ample financial backing, to the State, or to the county of Rutherford, or to an or ganization V Indeed, it would be a line thing could North Carolina erect some such memorial as is contemplated nt Stone Mountain. It certainly has the mountains upon which such carving could be satis factorily- made, but the Confederate Memorial on the mountainside belongs to Georgia, to Stone Mountain. If that gigantic undertaking is to be success fully concluded and the memory of Southern oldiers perpetuated in stone and mountain, it must be done as originally contemplated. “Brother Johnson.” solemnly began the presiding elder, desirous of impressing a valuable lesson of some sort on his parishoner, "if your sins were written on your forehead what would you do?” “Wear my hat all the ttime," prompt ly replied Gap Johnson of Rumpus Ridge. 30000000000000000000000000 FRALJNGER’S ! !
