MORRISON HOME

Charlotte, March 211.—The contract
for the erection of the pn’.atial resi

Cameron Morrison on the 400-acre
Morrison estate on the Sharon road
at tile edge cf Myers Park, was let
Saturday to the Goode Construction
Company, of this city, says an ar-,
tide in The Charlotte Observer.
Mr. Morrison declined to give the
amount of the contract, but archi
tects estimate the post at approxi

noted New York residential archi
tect. drew the plans.
Work on the structure will begin
Monday. It will require about a
year to build. The liome will be
one of the finest and largest in the
South. It will be of briek construc
tion and will be fire-proof through
out.
The house will be complete in ev
ery detail and will be the last unit to
the estate of the Morrisons on the
E'jaron road, which includes serv
ants’ quarters, out-houses, etc. There
are about four Hnits to the estate.
With the six massive bedrooms, a
library, sun porch nnd reception
rooms, the house will probably rank
with any in arrangement nnd beau
ty.
Mr. Morrison- declined to discus*
the plans, while no definite informa
tion could be w obtained from the con
tractors.
It was recalled t'.iat the Duke resi
dence here was constructed at a cost
estimated at $500,001), which price in

Items of Interest From Kannapolis
Mirror of the Week’s Athletic, Social and General
Events
By Kannapolis News Bureau .
JAZZY MOORE. Director j
Kannapolis, March 29.—Fact Week,!
conducted by the local news bureau,!
revealed the fact that 4(1 residents
hnve succumbed in Kannapolis in the
past ten weeks. This is equivalent to
last year's nine months or 30 weeks'
mynber.
Sam Query Oldest Merchant.
It was also learned that Ram Query,
of the Query-Goodman shoe and hos
iery business, is the oldest merchant
in Kannapolis, having the distinction
of riding into what is now Kannapo
lis cf the first wagon load of goods
brought here. That was back in 1908
when he sat on tho back of a wagon
filled with merchandise consigned to
\Yh ifo Morrison-Flowe Company. No
one visioned at that time what Kan
napolis was destined to be.
Great cotton mills now cover the
fields which were then producing cat
ten. Residences, Y. M. C. A.’s, church
es, and schools wore soon added until
today the little city boasts of a popu
lation over ten thousand.
This and That.
Kannapolis ranks second in the
south in the number of Young Men's
Christian Association membership.
Louisville, Ky., leads.
Kannapolis has the longest cotton
mill in the south, and the largest tow
el mill in the world.
Frogs Have Gay Time.
Deputy Sheriff Chatman and Prohi
bition Officer J. L. Moore raided a
small service station here Friday af
ternoon and seized a small quantity
of whiskey.
The proprietor, not wanting to be
caught with the “goods,” ran out the
back alley and poured the contents in
a frog puddle.
The frogs became drunk and now
the authorities say they will prefer a
charge against the man for cruelty to
animals.
Kannapolis Player Returns Unsigned
Winston Contract.
_ Yes sir, he's' our baby! And ail
for another season too! Rut Lee, ahi
boidout, has returned the contract sent
him by Cy Chisholm, boss of the Win
ston-Salem Twins and says he will
not report for spring practice unless a
much larger financial consideration is
offered him. He did not name the
sum, but said it'was not good pay for
six months.
Meanwhile, Kannapolians are en
thusiastic over prospects of keeping
him, and while wishing him success
they candidly admit they hope the
Twin City Club won’t loosen its purse
strings. He is one of the most popu
lar athletes in this city and would be
missed in many ways.
He played rightfield for the locals
last year and is one of the best known
players in the State. He has been a
consistent player—a beautiful fielder,
a hard hitter and an all aggressive
man.
Kannapolis Highs Win Opening Game
of Season From Huntersville.
After holding the Kannapolis Highs
at bay for three innings, Blythe,
pitching for Huntersville, weakened,
and the locals won their opening num
ber of the season, 8 to 7, here this af
ternoon.
At times both teams played terrible
ball, eight errors being charged, four
to each team, and the mental slips
were much more numerous. A total
of 24 hits rang from the bats of the
two teams and it required nearly two
hours to unravel the nine innings of
decidedly mediocre basebale.
However, the contest was not with
out its bright spots. Chick DeMar
cus, at third for Kannapolis, did
some sensational high school fielding,
staging several brilliant plays. He
also lead Hie assault, two out of four,
and launched a vicious attack that
wiped out the lend in the fourth. Den
i uis, local, and Cashion, foreign, exhib
' ited flashes of class afield.

Religious Books Move Up in Rranks
Os Best Sellers.
New York. March 29.—OP)—Reli
gious books have increased their po
sition within the ranks of best sellers
to a conspicuous degree during the
last several years, the gain being at
tributed by pubiishers to a greater
demand not only, from church mem
bers but from persons without de
finite ecclesiastical affiliations.
A glance over the list of the ten
best sellers in non-fiction last year
shows Bruce Barton’s “The Nobody
Knows” and Giovanni Rapini’s "The
Life of Christ” well toward the
top. Demand for these and other
books on religion is reported even
greater than in 1925.
“When some one refers to the
greatest book in the world, the book
trade thinks ‘Bible’ as quickly ns do
churchmen,” said Frederic G. Melch
er, editor of the Publisher’s Weekly.
"Its sale beggars all other totals of
production and has since printing
begnn.
"But though the field of religious
books has always supplied the book
stores with their best sellers, this
seldom has been ns conspicuously so
as during the last two or three
years, bust now the high peak of
church activity emphasizes this m
terest. Another interesting feature is
it has been characteristic of recent
demands that they have spread far
beyond church boundaries.'
In addition to tbe books by Barton
and Papini, Mary Austin's “The
Small Town Man” nnd Robert
Lynde Hartt’s “The Man Himself”
have attracted wide reading. Much
interest is being shown in William
Lyon Phelp’s “The Carpenter of
Nazareth.” Sales on a series of Rev.
Harry Emerson Fosdick's sermons
hnve gone beyond the million mark.
New trans’ations of the Bible have
been another outstanding feature.
Irate Father—Young man, have you
ever kissed my daughter?
Y'oung Man—l really couldn’t say,
air.
Irate Father—What! You can’t
My?
Young Man—No, sir; you see, sir,
I promised her I wouldn’t tell.

Stubborn Coughs
Quickly Stopped
This New Way
It is often surprising how the most
persistent, hacking cough that not only
robs you of strength and sleep, but often
leads to more serious trouble, yields
quickly to a simple but wonderfully
effective treatment.
This treatment is based on the pre
scription known as Dr. King’s New Dis
covery for Coughs. You take just one
teaspoonful at bed time and hold it in
your throat for 15 or 20 seconds before
swallowing it. The prescription has a
double action. It not only soothes and
heals soreness and irritation, but it
quickly removes the phlegm and con
gestion which are the real cause of night
coughing. So with the cause removed,
coughing stops quickly, your sleep un
disturbed, and the entire cough con
dition soon disappears.
Dr. King’s New Discovery is for
coughs, chest colds, sore throat, hoarse
ness, bronchitis, spasmodic croup, etc.
.Fine for children as well as grown
ups —no harmful drugs. Economical,
I too, as the dose is only one teaspoon
ful. At all good druggists. Ask for
BILIOUS_ATTACKS
From Which Kentucky Man Suf
fered Two or Three Times a
Month, Relieved by
Black-Draught.
Lawrenceburg, Ky.—Mr. J. P.
Nevins, a local coal dealer and far
mer, about two years ago learned
of the value of Thedford’s Black-
Draught liver medicine, and now
he says:
“Until then I Buffered with se
vere bilibus attacks that came on
two or three times, each month.
I would get nauseated. I would
have dizziness and couldn’t work.
“I would take pills until I was
worn-out with them. I didn’t seem
to get relief. After taking the pills
my bowels would act a couple or
three times, then I would be very
constipated.
“A neighbor told me of Black-
Draught and I began Its use. I
never have found so much relief
as i» gave me. I would not ba
without It for anything.
“It seemed to cleanse my whole
Bystem and make me feel like new.
I would take a few doses—get rid
of the bile and have my usual clear
head, feel full of ‘pep’ and could
do twice the work.”

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
Simple, Dependable Lubrication—
The Ford lubrication system is the simplest used on
any automobile. The oil in the flywheel chamber is
splashed over the clutch and all transmission gears by
the movement of the flywheel. Some of this oil finds its
way through a tube to the timing gears at the front of
the motor and thoroughly lubricates them. Returning
along the base of the motor to the flywheel chamber, it \
is picked up by the connecting rods which turn this oil '
into a spray that lubricates the camshaft, pistols and all
other moving parts.
