The I. X. L. Dept. Store. 14 North Main St. Phone 107 Oh The -preliminary report of the state department of health on the vital sta tistics for last year is Just being made and Ashevllle as usual Is highly com pllmented. The report says In part: Seven towns in the state had a typhoid death rate of over 100,000 These In their order are, Sanford, first, with 186.S; Loutsburg- second, 152.6; Hendersonville third, 129.0; High Point fourth, 124.1; Burlington fifth, 115.8; Forest City, sixth, 114.1; and Winston-Salem, seventh, 104.0. With typhoid death rates over five times as high as the average in the United States, thede Is no question but that these towns need to do some house cleaning and establish a health department. "Of the seven largest cities In the state, as might be expected, Ashe vllle with her excellent health dpart ment has the lowest death rate of 25.3, or just one half that of Greens- hnm. thA nTt lnVMtf with KO.fi. The next In order after Greensboro are I Durham 69.7; Charlotte 66.7; Ral eigh 71.0; Wilmington 104.0. Health work pays big dividends in human life and health." Statements That May Be In vestigated. Testimony of Asheville Citizens. Testimony of AshevUle Clttsens. When an Ashevllle citizen comes to the front, telling his friends and neighbors of his experience, you can rely on his sincerity.

PIEDMONT ELECTRIC CO. 64 Patton Ave. Opposite Pont Office The following special from Bel mont tells of the recent election of a successor to Mother Teresa: "The Sisters of Mercy of North Carolina assembled in their chapel in order to elect a successor to the la mented Mother Teresa who recently died in Asheville. There were 33 sisters present at the election. After Invoking the Holy Ghost each sister In silence cast her vote. V. Rev. Dr. Felix, O. S. B., presided In the ab sence of Bishop Hald who is expected from Europe this week. Sister Cecelia Cobb received in the first ballot more than two-thirds of the votes of the community and was Immediately ap proved and greeted aa the Keverend Mother. "She will nt once assume the du ties of her i J ice. Mother Cecelia, a daughter of the kite Ir. B. F. Cobb, was horn in Duplin county, N. C. She entered the community as sister at the aire of 20 and has held many re sponsible positions since then. For many years she was directress of Sa cred Heart college at Belmont, then local superioress of the Wilmington house. She has numerous relatives throughout the state, who are well known and hold prominent positions. "The Sisters of Mercy also formally passed the proposition of erecting a hospital on Elizabeth Heights In Charlotte, and a sanitarium on Bllt- more avenue, Ashevllle. "The ceremonies of the election were simple, but solemn. At tho eon elusion when the remjlt had been an nounced the Ttev. Dr. Felix conaratu lated the new mother In the name of the bishop and the Catholics In North Carolina, and wished her many years of able and successful administration." Sad Victim of an Aggressive Brother Is No More Re membered by Friends. Out in that section of Montford avenue which Is just one mile from Pack square the smallest grave in the world was dug yesterday afternoon. just at the time when hundreds of business men were rushing home from their offices, automobiles were whirl ing by with loads of Joy-riders and the street cars were bringing to the city the scores of people who had vis ited Klversdie park dduring the after noon. "Our hero" is buried In the grave. Some kindness, which not only sees the fall of every sparrow, but guides the last flutter of its wings, decreed that a sparrow should die on Montford avenue yesterday after noon and that five little girls should see him die and call him "our hero." The sparrow met death like a war rior brave, for he was attacked by a larger bird. And the five little girls, who were on Montford avenue playing, responded and did the only natural and tltting thing for little girls to do under such a circumstance of wonder and grief. With much sincere ceremony they planned and dug and laid him to rest. And then, awed by the beautiful grandeur of the thing they had done, they ran quickly away. "Goodbye, our hero," called out the littlest girl of all, as she waved her small hands at the grave And now those who pass by, for the grave is on a lot only a few feet from .the sidewalk, see the grave and marvel, for fairies or little children have been at work. The tinest grave in all the world is soft, new, brown earth, as are all graves. At its head is a cross of tinfoil, glistening In the noonday sun and on the cross is slip of paper, printed In colored chalk. Our Hero." Someone as kind and gentle as the little girls came by and put a flower on the grave and tied it there with a white ribbon. As people pass by, tired business men, Idle youths on their way home or happy maidens out for a stroll, a tiny link of connection seems to have been made, by the thought of some children, between the ruslng and bustling life of Montford avenue and that of the grave which sleeps and Is still.
