Greensboro, Jan. 13. Dr. Poseph
Kalbfur, secretary of the State Game
Protective Association of Pennsyl
vania, spent yesterday here in con
ference with the secretary of the North
Carolina Audubon Society, Gilbert T.
Pearson, returning to Harrisburg last
night. Dr. Kalbfur is an entertaining
talker and said North Carolina was
taking the right step in beginning a
stoppage of the drain upon its game.
He said that the Northern and West
ern States were getting all their for
eign shipments, in spite of the law
prohibiting it, from North Carolina and
Virginia, and more attention should
be paid to enforcing these laws as had
been done in others states. Although
game laws have been in force in Penn
sylvania for 25 years, it was only in
the past 10 years, he said, that the
public had become educated properly
to the practical value of bird life and
the necessity for protecting it.
At a meeting of business men of
Greensboro and other points in the
State here Thursday night steps were
taken looking to the organization of
another fire insurance company, one
with sufficient capital to do business
in many states besides North Carolina.
The consensus of opinion was that a
company with not less than $750,000
capital stock, making it the largest in
the South, was the most feasible plan,
though assurances were given that
with some some time and careful work
a million dollar company could be or
ganized. While no subscriptions were
called for last night a .quiet canvass
was made of only those present and it
was disclosed that $180,000 could have
been raised at this initial meeting.
Mr. Ashley Home, of Clayton, presid
ed over the meeting and Mr. Lee H.
Battle acted as secretary.
After a thorough discussion of the
question involved in the launching of
the new enterprise, the session lasting

How Deadly Rheumatism of the' Heart
Comes On.
v Those pains you feel when you first
arise in the morning itching pains in
the joints, shooting pains in the mus
cles are signs of warning. They are
danger signals, evidences of a deep-
seated trouble system and cause chron
ic disease, or if the cause is not re
moved, they may develop suddenly
into the deadly Rheumatism of the
Heart, which kills Tike lightnings"; .. I
Better get rid of the cause at once.
Rheumatism and its kindred diseases
HTecaused by the accumulation of
poisonous acids in the blood. , Rubbing
with oils or liniments will not cure it;
It is an internal disease, and can be
conquered only by an internal remedy.
There is- just one complete cure
RHEUMACIDE. RHEUMACIDE neu
tralizes the poisonous acids, sweeps all
the dangerous germs out of the blood
and "makes you well all over." RHEU
MACIDE SURES because it is the on
ly remedy that "gets at the joints from
the inside."
Mr. W. R. Hughes, of Atkins, Va.l
writes :
"Four bottles. of RHEUMACIDE have
entirely cured me of a long standing
one of Rheumatism, and greatly im
proved my general health. I was a to
tal wreck, having had rheumatism for
twenty years. I spent several weeks
and much money trying specialists
but RHEUMACIDE is the only
cure I have found. When I began to
use it I weighed 140 podnds. Now I
weigh 180 pounds, my normal weight."

from 8 till nearly 11 o'clock, it was
decided . to appoint a committe
organization to take active steps
necessary to organizing the com
pany, this committee to report at a
latter meeting of the interested parties
to be held subject to the call of the
committee. Those named on the com
mittee were: C. D. Benbow, J. W.
Menefee and W. S.' Thompson, of
Greensboro; George Hackney, of Wil
son, and Frederick Rutledge, of Ashe-
ville.
Among many interesting and in
structive facts recited by business men
at the Immigration Association meet
ing held here Thursday the statements
made by Col. G. W. Hinshaw, of Win
ston, and Mr. Thomas Woodruff, of Mt.
Airy, were significant, and furnished
much food for thought. Colonel Hin
shaw, who is interested in mining,
railroads and development work gen
erally, speaking of labor conditions,
said that he had occasion to look over
pay rolls of labor for the past several
years and was surprised to find the
number of negro workmen was as
large as formerly, though there is an
apparanent great scarcity of laboresrs.
But here he discovered that
the scarcity was not in negro
men, but in their number of days'
work. He found that at the period
when they were getting 70 cents per
day they worked five days in the week,
earning $3.50. When the day wage
had risen to 80 cents they worked four
days in the week, earning $3,20. Now
that they get a $1.00 per day, growing
more demoralized in proportion to the
increase of wages, they work only
three days in the week, getting $3.00.
Every farmer, housekeeper and manu
facturer knows that Colonel Hinshaw's
experience, as proved by the books, is
his, too, with negroes as a rule. The
better pay they get, the less work they
do the more trifling they become.
Mr. Woodruff, who works the larg
est granite quarry in the State if not
in the South, said that durjng the
working season his pay roll amounted
to $1,000 per day for labor alone:
That he has no trouble in getting all
the white skilled workmen, such as
stonecutters, blacksmiths, etc., but
that it was becoming a very serious
matter to get sufficient unskilled labor
to quarry the same, and ; that yester?
day every skilled workmen was idle
because the rough granite could not be
supplied them by the laborers. He.
too, said the high prices had . made unskilled-labor
unreliable, except that
which he had imported, His company
had been compelled the. night, before
to place an order in Philadelphia for
tnn i,:n j isx 1 'T-' ? ? " 1 I '
luu uusnmeu wmie laDorers, , growing
discouraged over the unreliability of
the native. He also said that much
had been said about the undesirability
of foreign riff-raff, etc. His comnanv
had worked for several vears fifrtf
skilled white foreigners. Thev had
brought their families and had become
excellent citizens. Prompt at their
work, economical, sober and faithful,
were attentive to their families' needs
and promotion and their advanps

Mrs. W. S. Caldwell, of Huntersville
and Mrs. J. Y. Weddineton. of Char-

For twenty-five years we have known.
Mrs. Mayes known her in her-home
life in her social life and in her
church life. She was a pure, gentle,
sweet-spirited, earnest Christian wo
man devoted to her home and her
Savior. Early she learned to love Him,
and to serve Him was the delight of her
life. She was always c!ad when they
said unto her. "Let us go onto the
house of the Lord." She was5 the keeper,
of a happy home, and so well and thor

The banquet tendered the members
of the First Baptist Church by the
Sunday school last night was a splen
did success. There was not a single
incident that occurred but what tended
to add to the pleasure and happiness
of the large gathering. All went away
feeling deeply indebted to Captain
Thomas S. Franklin and his associates
in the Sunday school for an evening of
real pleasure. ..-.-
The banquet was served in the Sun
day school room and covers were
spread for 300 guests. Every detail o
the aflair showed careful planning and
there was not a hitch during the entire
evening. The Sunday school room pre
sented a most inviting appearance.
There was a freshness about the place
that told more eloquently than words
of the touch of the tender hand of wo
man. Here and there about the improv
ised banquet hall there were to be
seen the green of the palms and ferns,
and about. the well-laden tables there
was the sweet perfume of the hya
cinth. The decorations, at least the
prevailing .colors, were red and white.
And here and there about the room the
mellow lights from , many candles
formed an important part in the gen
eral attractiveness of the scene.
It was just a scene to make one feel
glad and wish that life's pathway al
ways led to such stopping places. And
to make glad the hearts of those who
do and those who do not love music,
Mr. Richardson and his orchestra were
there. Many selections were render
ed in a faultless manner.
Once seated around the banquet
Capt. Thomas S. Franklin, superin
tendent of the Sunday school and the
originator of the evening's entertain
ment, in a few words, explained the
object of the gathering. He then intro
duced Mr. W. C. Dowd, who, in his hap
piest vein; delivered the address of
welcome, which was well received and
heartily applauded. Mr. Dowd made
a; pleasing reference to the one who
made the affair possible and said that
it. was ithe outcome of affection and was
in the interest of the church and -Sunday
school.
Mr. R. H. Jordan responded to the
address of welcome and was liberally
applauded. '
Folowing Mr. Jordan, Mr. H. G.
Harper, treasurer of the Sunday
school, made his report, which showed
that the collections for the past year
amounted to $1,093.06 and the expendi
tures figured, up $989.08. .
In the, absence of Mr. J. A. Durham,
who was booked to respond to the
toast,! "Young Men,".. Mr. T.. A Adams
was called upon. His talk was really
very good and thoroughly entertained
the audience.-
Mrs. C. E. Mason in response to the
toast, "Young Women," made a hit and
she was liberally applauded.
"The Home Department", was splen
idly taken care, of by 'Miss .Carrie
BOoker, she being in charge of this
special work of the school.
Round Tahlp Talk, led hv Mr 1
i Frank Flowers, proved one of the most
interesting features of the evening. In
his ; talk Mr. Flowers gave, in brief, a
history of the wonderful development
of Sunday school work. Speeches,
short, and to the point, were made by
Messrs. Willis Brown, J. C. McNeill, I.
W. Durham, C. E. Mason, E. H. Tatum
and ' Revs. Willingham, Pruett and
Phillips. ; -
It is needless to add that Captain
Franklin, the popular superintendent,
was heartily applauded for the splen

Lment.
