DOORS MUST SWING OUT. Chief Orr Recommends Changes in City Graded Schools. The terrible holocaust at Cleve!and In which so many school children were burned to death has led Mr, D. B. Smith, of the local school board, to have an inspection made cf the Charlotte graded school buildings. This inspection was made by Chief Orr, of the Charlotte Fire Depart ment, and he found, among other things, that many of the outside doors do not swing outward on their hinges. An early meeting of the school board will be called in order to act upon Chief Orr's recommenda tions, which are as follows: Charlotte, March 7th, 190S. Mr. D. B. Smith. Member School Board. Charlotte, N. C: Dear Sir: At your request I havej made a special examination of the principal public school buildings of the city with a view of rendering them more secure from fire and have the following recommendations to make: "It is wonderful what women have been doing for foreign missions in times past. Among other things they have dedicated their best laying hens to the cause. And that is a good ileal. A real good laying hen will lay about eggs a year and at the price of eggs now she Is doing more than most of folks for this great work." Thus spoke Miss Daisy Davies. ot Atlanta, at the Tryon Street Metho dist Church last night. Miss Davies is a great tall, brainy, breezy young livered bv The Rev. A. J. Ransom at East Avenue Church on The Need of Salvation. Rev. A. J. Ransom delivered a very strong and impressive sermon at East Avenue church at the Sabbath morn ing service to a large congregation. His subject was "So Great Salva tion," taken from Hebrews, 3:2, "How shall we escape if we ncgloct so great salvation?" Ho began: "My purpose is to speak this morning as plainly as I can of the greatness of salvation.

Mecklenburg Wants Five Farmers Institutes The Mecklenburg farmers are great ly alive to the value of farmers insti tutes, and the department of agricul ture will be. asked to hold five of those in the county during the coming sum mer. At a meeting of the executive com mittee on Saturday, the following places were selected for the holding of these institutes: Davidson, Caro lina Academy, Piedmont School, Hick cry Grove, Providence ad Dixie. The department or agriculture will be asked to place on the program for these institutes, Prof. Massey, of Mary land and Dr. Paul Barringer, president of the Virginia A. and M. College. Capt. S. B. Alexander will also be on the program for this county. The dates for holding the institutes have not been fixed as yet.

"There's a Reason" The fifth remark I wdsh to make is, this plan is great in the little it asks of the sinner. The best, the most val uable, the most priceless thing in the world is offered to you without money and without price Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved. "In the sixth place, this plan of sal vation is great because of its exclusive ness. There is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. In the seventh place this plan i3 great because of its inclusiveness. If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. God gave hi3 Son that who soever believeth on him might have everlasting life. For the Son of man came to seek and to save that which was lost. I am confident this morning that God has done his very best for you and for mo. I believe God has made this con gregation see the way of salvation is perfectly plain, and I ask you this morning, 'Will you not accept that Savior now?' " Rev. Hugh K. Boyer filled his pul-i pit at Tryon Methodist Street Church yesterday morning, after an absence of two weeks, on account of sickness and was greeted by a large and at tentive audience. The text was from Matthew 6th chapter, part of the 9th and 10th verses: "Our father, which in heav en thv kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." The text, as is seen is from the Lord's prayer, and the speaker dis cussed that praver and its bearing on the Christian faith and practice in many phases, and as an introduc tion, said : "That it is the whole plan of sal vation in miniature. It is the only model prayer, and there is so much in it that if it were answered as expressed the whole Avorld would be astonished; and if it had been an swered at the time of its utterance the millinium would have come." Further along in the discussion he referred to how often, how very often, the prayer is repeated idly, with no thought or expectancy of an answer; and at the close of the dis course the speaker said that were the kingdom to come now there would be less change than many would think. Manv. he said, would go on to their accustomed work, or attend ing to their accustomed business; but, said he. there is one business, the keeping of a bar-room that would be changed, for "no man on the earth, in heaven or under the earth, can prove it has a right to exist."

To an overflowing congregation at the evening service Mr. Ransom preached from Hebrews, 7:25, Where fore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. "Christ, as our Redeemer, executeth the ofiice3 of a prophet, of a priest and ! of a king, both in his estate of humili j ation and exaltation, j "He executeth the office of a prophet j in revealing to us by his word and ' Spirit the will of God for our salva- tion. I "He executeth the office of a priest :' in his once offering up of himself as , a sacrifico to satisfy divino justice and reconcile us to God, and in making con ! tinual intercession for us. "He executeth the office as a king in subduing us to himself in ruling and ! defending us, and in restraining and conquering all his and our enemies, i "The first remark I wish to make is, ! Jesus Christ, as priest, is able to save us. Come, now, and let us reason to gether, saith the Lord: though your i sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they bo red ! like crimson, they shall be as wool This means that the guilty sinner of I Charlotte is invited to come and talk I over his sin with Jesus Christ. "The second thought, which is more important, if possible than the first is the 'words to the uttermost.' He is able to save evermore, completely ' those that come unto him. Some say ! 'I wouldn't mind taking the stand for 1 Jesus Christ if I thought I could hold out.' I come to your tonight and say you haven't a thing to do with holding out; it is a question of the ability of i Jesus Christ. But he can save those , only who come unto God through Jesus : Christ. "The third thought is seeing he ever liveth. Our Savior is a living Savior. We have not met here to worship a dead Savior he is alive for evermore. He ! is not living just to be simply living. Jesus Christ has no greater work to day than the work of praying for you and for me. Seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for his people.
