A. Talbirt, chief of po lice, said today. “Tomorrow will be the first of June and the motorists of Concord have had one month in which to get their city license plates. We will give them until Monday to get the plates and put them on their machines or they will be summoned to court,” Chief Talbirt said. The police officers will be in structed to summon all those who do not have the new plates on their cars, Chief Talbirt said. The plates may be secured from Charles N. Fields, city tax collector. Mr. Fields said today that a large number have secured their tags to date but that there are still many who had not done so. The price of the tag is $1 and the tags have been on sale since May Ist. “Nine hundred ami fourteen city license plates have been sold up to noon today,” Mr. Fields said. “There I were approximately 1,600 plates is sued during last year and those who had last year's plate must secure a new one and. those who have not had a plate must get ope at once.” C. J. MAUNEY DIES AT ALBEMARLE OF ACUTE INDIGESTION Was Leading Druggist There and Formerly Had Made His Home in Cabarrus County. A message received here Monday by Mrs. J. L. Crowell announced the sudden death at Albemarle that af ternoon of her brother. C. Junius Manner. Mr. Mnuney was a lead ing druggist there, and about 30 years ago held a position here with the Marsh Drug Co. His death was caused by acute indigestion. He com plained some during the afternoon of feeling unwell and went to his home for supper, and was taken very ill and died in a few minutes. He had been in extremely good health. He was a native of Stanly county, a grad uate of Trinity College, and lint! been in the drug business in Albemarle for over 25 years. He was about 55 years old ami leaves his wife, wljii before her mar riage was Miss Margie Atkins. They have uo children. Funeral arrange ments have not, yet been announced. A strange coincidence is that only a few months ago I). C. Kluttv., who had been connected with the same drug store for about 20 years, died sud denly. D.

The Washiug i ton police are to wire an answer and Chief Talbirt will leave for Wash ington as soon as he learns whether the negro will agree to return with out requisition proceedings.

I!' I [ Several hundred Concord people Monday night enjoyed one of the sea ! ture programs of the Redpath Chau t tauqua, "The Patsy.” A,witty, sparkling Broadway ooin -1 edy by Barry Conners, the three hilar ious acts of the play kept the large 1 audience in a continuous uproar of ; laughter. “The Patsy” not only em braced comedy but pathos, and ro | mance. * [ Possessing great charm, and in the , words of the modern flapper, “a cute i girl.” Miss Evelyn Newton as Patricia Harrington won the sympathy of her ; audience in her difficult life in the '< 1 Harringtou home and her battle to 1 win the man she loved—Tony Ander- < son. The latter role was played ' by Nat H. Wade. The efforts of the entire company J were splendid. Other members of J the cast included: Miss Violet Whit worth as Mrs. Harrington; A. T. Stork as Mr. Harrington, the grocery salesman; It. Forrest Lewis as Billy Caldwell; Miss Frances Shepherd as Grace Harrington. The play, in brief, centered about the Harrington household, always in the channels of domestic tribulations, and ]KMir Patricia was given the most of the blame, and the rest was laid at the feet of Mr. Harrington. Grace Harrington wanted everything that Patricia owned, and desired. She even tried to win back her old sweetheart 1 who had fallen in love with Patricia. ! . But she lost. Patricia was too smart 1 to lose the man she had sought to . win for five years. j } \ NEW AUTOMOBILE PLATES ON SALE TN CITY JUNE IST } Branch Office of Caroling i Motor Club at Reid Motor Company to Sell Tags.—j Expect to Sell 6,000.

Jlem . stein has just completed a detailed j I study of human hair. The hair of the 1 Italian differs in weight from that , of the Irishman; and the hair of a young Irishman differs m weight ; from that of an old Irishman. The value of the information will be , considerable, asserted the speaker. J i because in the future hair as well as j . skulls can be taketi into caiadderu i tion when determining questions of . anthropology. “Differences in hair ' . weight are due to three opuses,” said i , Bernstein. “First, differences in I , quality of pigment; second, presence I . or absence of air bubbles; and third, differences of area of cross section. 1 that is coarseness of hair. Sexual differences sewn to bo due to the dif ference’in area of cross section.” - Rally D«y At_Jierr Baptist Churdch. i Rally day as Kerr Street Baptist , 1 church Sunday was a great success l from eveity standpoint, despite the - rain.
