AUTOMOBILES BLAMED
FOB UNMARRIED MOTHERS
Hrector of Salvation Army Social
Service Gives Out Surprising Fig
ures.
New York, June 14— Automobiles
vith predatory drivers were blamed
>y a Salvation Army official for “an
istounding number of young unmnr
■ied mothers.”
Colonel Margaret Bevil, territorial
lireetor of the army's social service,
mid that 42 per cent, of the unmar
•ied mothers cared for in the last two
■ears at fifteen Salvation Army ma
ernity homes had been "school girls
1 high or elementary grades, averng
ng 16 years of age.”
"To have an average of 16,” she
dded. “means that we must have an
stounding number of girls who are
coaming mothers between the ages of
I and 14.”
In an “exact survey" just eonelud
rl, said Colonel Bevill, the majority
f girls in the fifteen instances “at
jphuted their difficulties to nutomo
ile flirtations." Os 367 girls now
i the home, 169 were declared to be
f “school age."
The Blacksmith Evangelist.
Yinston-Salem Sentinel.
On last Thursday evening l:ev. W.
I. Willeford, of Coolecmee, began a
icries of gospel services in a tent in
Southside, on Hollywood Street, near
Brames' store and P. W. Mock's meat
market, and services have been held
with splendid results.
!.W«K night the Union Ridge Church
■hoir was present nnd sang soul in
p'ring songs which inspired the eon
regation, The largest audience of :
he series was present last night and a 1
umber of professions were made.
The preacher based his remarks up-
II the story of Sampson and flie bon
y comb. He stated that heaven was
invilar to a honey comb with many
•ells. Hf stated that there were as
uany cells'lh heaven as there were
>eople born in'the world. Not every!
[•el! is filled in-heaven because there I
are many souls lost. Bees fill each roll
speetjve cell with honey. If a bee is 1
killed a Cell in the boner comb is nev
er filled. So it is if a soul is lost bc
before it readies heaven, a cell is found 1
empty in' heaven.
Mr. Willeford also said that the
Christions in (he world are Owl's
honey bees. He stated that every
Christian should be busy as bees try
ing to save the souls of men which are
as precious as honey. A strong ap
peal was made to the Christians toj
work to save the lost souls of the city j
and the community. Services will be
g;n every evening at 7:30. . Preach- (
ing service will be at Sp. in The
public is urged ■to atteud these ser- j
vices. j
Mr. Willeford was formerly a black-!
smith in Concord. He was converted
several yea-s ago and recently he be
gan preaching as an evangelist byj
holding tent meetings. He has had
remarkable success ns an evangelist, j
especially in the towns of the north
western part of North Carolina. 1

i says he landed a small cattish on n

| the fish to a forked stick, wbirfi jie
stuck in the thud in shallow water.'
All other efforts to land more sish 1
proving unsuccessful, he returned to
get his'-eat.
But it was a decidedly different
looking catfish that greeted his eyes.
The fish, which a few minutes before
was scarcely six inches long. * now
had grown two feet long.
A second look, however, toid the
story. A snake had swallowed the
fish up to the head, and was making
I frantic efforts to get it down.

just hurt all the time, and I could not
eat without heipg in misery for hours
afterward. It just seemed like there
was a sore spot right in the pit of
my stomach, and I would bloat with
gas and become so weak and nervous
I could hardly keep going. I couldn’t
even rest at night, and during the day
I just felt”completely worn out.
"But I could feel the good of Kar
nak from the very start. Why, never
in my life have I seen anything like
this medicine. Why, almost before
I knew it the gas and soreness had
left my stomaih, and I could eat
hearty again. Why, l feel so jnuch
stronger I just go about my work
now and can hardly realize I'm the
same person. Karnak worked like it
was made especially for my case and
, I’ll never stop praising it."
Karnak is sold in Concord by I'earl
