KIWANIS “LADIES’ NIGHT”
WITHOUT DULL MOMENT
Varied Program Moved on Schedule
Time at the Y. M. C. A. Friday
Evening.
Members of the Concord Kiwanis
Cltth paid homage Friday evening to
their wives and sweethearts with one
of the most delightful programs in
the history of the club. Staged as
“Ladies’ Night” the program moved
without a dull moment for an hour
a~t a half, combining an excellent
luncheon with a variety of fine en
tertainment.
B E. Harris, chairman of the com
mittee on arrangements, presided, and
managed at all times to keep the pro
gram a full step ahead of its schedule.
Songs, stunts, reading of communica
j tion®. two readings, and two solos
! combined with the speech of welcome
j by James P. Cock offered an evening
j of rare pleasure.
In welcoming the ladies to the
meeting Mr. Cook uttered a plea for
a return to social conditions which
; demanded mixed social gatherings,
where for every girl there is a swain
and for every man a dame -'When
I first came to Concord." he said, "the
hostess arranged her lists of guest®
and designated the couples After
a few years the women began to or
ganize c'ubs and other social struc
i tures until the number has grown to
; such proportions that I challenge any
one here to name them all in Concord.
! I am glad to see this mixed audience,
for we arc a way® blessed to be in
he presence of the ladies.”
In the course of his address Mr.
Cook read what was purported to be
a telegram from President Cooling”
in which the chief executive expressed
regret that he c u'd not attend tiie
meeting. “Fai’ure of Bob Riden*
| hour to return mj shirt n - kes it im
| possib'e for me to attend,” the mes
| sage read, and in another sentence the
President d-'ciared his intention of
: coming soon to Concord to discuss
| with A. B. Palmer the liquor question
i and to secure from Mayor C. H. Rar
j rier suggestions to to how a street
| railway shou’d be operated.
As his cl sing thought Mr. Co >k
i praised the ideals of Kiwanis, com
mended the members of the loom club
• their energetic work in civic mat
i and extended a wholesome we'
; ome to the ladies.
A solo by Mrs. H. G. Gibson, with
piano accompaniment by Mrs. J. T.es
' He Ccrrell. was the next feature, the
|. singer gn: msly responding with an
! encore.
Joe l ike and Fred M. Youngblood
| furnished the entertainment for the
‘ next ten minutes. There has been
! some question as to the biggest eater
! in the club, it was pointed out by
j Chairman Harris, and as the honor
! lies between these two, it was decided
! to let them decide which was the best
i feeder. Each was blindfolded and giv
i cn a saucer of blackened marshmallows
and told to feed one another. The stunt
provoked much merriment.
Mrs. J. W. Stalling®. Jr., waS heard
next in two excellent readings, the
second in which *he used the negro
dialect, being her response to enthu
siastic applause after the first num
ber.
Due to the fact that they failed
to have their music Jonn B. Sherrill
and 11. E. Ridenhour, Sr., were unable
to sing the number assigned them.
The song was entitled: “If Garters 1
■; Were Worn Around Our Necks How-
Long Our Socks Would Be." And
besides Bob was so busy trying to
get President Coolidge's lauidry ready
he did not have time to practice.
Six ladies ami one gian were pre
-1 anted with prize® after an interest
-1 ing drawing contest. The prizes were
given by Mayor Barrier, and he point
cd out that all of them were ''Cabar
rus raised or made."
The names of Mrs. B. E. Harris.
Jr., was drawn first and she was
; presented with an aluminum kettle.
The other prizes were:
Double aluminum boiler to Mrs R.
M. King.
Red-necked rooster to Mrs. L, T.
Hartaell, Jr.
Doninique hen to Mr®. M. R. Gib
son. v
! Guinea to Mrs. Stanton Northrop
i Guinea to Mrs. Hinton McLeod.
I Quart of kraut to Miss Margie Me
| ! Eachern.
i 1 Only one prize was offered to the
| men and this was drawn by Prof
1 Hinton McLeod. It was a quart of
j red-tinged liquid: of the rye in color
[ but of the vinegar in smell.
Miniature boxep of Huyler's were
given to the ladies as souvenirs.
! The excellent luncheon was served
i under the direction of Mr® W. A.
j Foil and Mrs. L. E. Roger.
The Mummy Song. "It's a Hard
( Thing to Beat.” and the Kiwanis
j 'uncheon song were the ensemble rau
i sical numbers, the latter being reud
[ ered as the note of dismissal.

It i® announced that total subscrip
tions in the recent campaign here to
raise funds for the proposed Smoky
Mountains National Park was $2,504.-

Reports from other counties in this
section of the state show that the to

pares favorably with the totals in ad
joining counties. This county raised
mudl more than some other piedmont
counties, it is said.
Joseph F. Cannon was chairman
of the campaign committee in Cabnr
rus and to him is due most credit for
the success of the local drive. There
was no organized manner of conduct

devised one which proved so successful
that it has been adopted in other
counties by representatives of the
state-wide park fund committee.

Charlotte district of the North Caro- ,
lina Building and Loan League, a dis
trict embracing several counties, also
secretary of the Mutupl Building and i
I/ian Association, says thtat the State '
league has declined to accept the
North Carolina Building and Loan
Association in membership, returning J
i its cheek and application for such (
membership. (
The RSleigh coneern, he said, J
sought to do business on a statewide (
scale, a policy, he says, which has 1
never been successful, whereas the
other associations confine themselves I
strictly to loans in their own com- ]
j mtuiities.
Whatever the reasons may be, he (
says, the result to that a statewide
association has never lived in North ■
Carolina, while the community an- 1
soeiations have prospered and mr.lti- \
plied, without a single failure dur- <
, ing the ten-year period in winch rec- 1
ords have been kept.
There are now 240/associations in i
the state, he said, with assets at ap- ]
proximately $85,000,000.
Two associations in Charlotte, the 1
Mutual, of which Mrs. Keesler i« see- ]
rotary, and the Mechanics’ Perpetual. I
have the enviable record of more than 1
forty years of service without ever |
having lost a dollar on loans.

circus. “Fool’s Gold’’ is the tale of i
an old sourdough, who had struck it 1
rich, a plucky mail carrier and a j
! crooked gambler,, while ’The Last!
Shot” involves the Broussards and the
iOf Connors in a Kentucky feud with
liose and Mark, the innocent vie- '
i films.
