CANNOT BE TOO CAREFUL. The terrible tragedy that occurred Tuesday night near Camden. S. (’.. when more than seventy persons lost their lives in it blaze tlml destroyed a school building,,.brings home to us the necessity for great care, in planning buildings that must house children or which must serve to house great crowds on special occasions. The sclioolhouse nearTamdeje caught afire while a commencement exercise was in progress, and the details of the cat astrophe are juost distressing. Entire families were wiped out in the fire: scores of children were burned or ■ smothered to death in the rush and the collapse of the building: mothers with babes in their arms were.crushed in the rush for the exit. The tragedy brings two matters dose home to us. Buildings used by children or as community ccuters. should have more than or e exit, and they should be lighted with something other than lamps. The fire in the South Carolina schoolhous* was started when a cell ing lamp fell to the stage, where pu pils were giving a commencement pro gram. The lamp exploded when it struck the stage, and the hlaze was scattered all over the stage, igniting the costumes of the children yjxl other lying about., The wooden stage was soon one solid mass of flumes, and many of the children taking part in the program were trapped behind the stage. There was but one door to, the. build ing. Persons sitting near it made their way out safely, but only a few could be accommodated near the door. A majority of the spectators were sit ting in other parts..of the structure, and they were carried to their doom when the floor gave way, being covered with blazing timbers and other burn ing materials. If there had been sev eral exits to the building it is very probable that many of those who tlieir lives would have been rescued or would have made their escape un- j aided from the building. —While reports of the catastrophe do hot give the ago of the* building, it is safe to estimate that it had been erected a number of years ago. Most of the buildings being erected in this day offer a number of exits and where they cannot be lighted by a public utility company many of-them use lo cal plants. All of Them should, for the kerosene lamp is always danger ous where children are concerned, and it is generally the unexpected that happens. MORRISON TO MAKE EXPOSURES. Though Governor Cameron Morrison *\ has been at work on his investigation of conditions in thb State prison, he asserts that he already lias learned enough to know that there are some terrible liars in North Carolina. The Governor in discussing the investiga tion said he expected to expose some of the "blackest lying against faith ful public servants” that the State has ever known, and he promises to make public facts just as he finds them. Superintendent Pou recommends that corporal punishment and the use of dark cells he abolished in the State pfjson and his recommendation will be followed in the future. He has sug gested a system for the State prison that is very similar to the system used in the Federal prison, and his plans have received the approval of Govern or Morrison, the directors of the pris on, Mrs. Kate Burr Johnson, comm 3s- •si oner of public welfare, and the oth er persons especially interested in J prison reforms. The change of admin istration in the prison together with I Governor Morrison's plans to make a full report on conditions as he finds them, should put the State prison on a fine footing in the future, whether I or not it has been there heretofore. ABOUT HEADY TO FUNCTION. Road matters in Cabarrus County or. Mime first will be placed in the: hands of the road commissioners -ap- j < I pointed at the last session of the Gen- j oral Assembly, and the commission has | •about reached the point with its prep- ] ;arations where-.it is ready to function. | Definite policies and plans for the: commissioners have not been made public, but it is generally understood that everything will be ready for the* policies of the i:ew body to be put in operation about the first of next month. Three of the most prominent men in the county compose the board. They are T. H. Webb. G. S. Kluttz and John W. Cress. These men were chosen be- | cause the public , has confidence in them, because they have the good of the county at heart than any po litical party, and because they have been successful ii: business and un doubtedly will be successful as public servants. Mr. Webb, as chairman of the board, will have the greater portion of the work' to look after, but he is expected to place the work on a busi ness basis and_s.ee that it is conducted as any other successful business is conducted. He is expected to get able and efficient men to look after the af fairs, of the. commission, and they will be held responsible. We think it is a wise move to take the county's road matters out of pol itics. Hereafter a change of adrainis- ■ tration politically, will have no effect | on the road policies in this county. Tjie plan has been tried for years in other counties and in each instance- it has proved successful. , While local roads will got the maj or portion of the commission's atten tion it is believed that the commission will endeavor to work harmoniously with the State Highway Commission on State roads. One of the first proj ects to be undertaken by the commis sion, according to reports, will be the construction of a modern highway I through No. 10 township. It is be lieved that once this road is construct ed by the county it will he accepted by tin* State. The commission, tic cording to all information available. plans to huifft this road on the most practical plans and along the most practical route, regardless of whether or not it serves everyone who wants his farm traversed by it. That is the only way to build a road. It is a waste of the people's money to run some road all through a community for the purpose of getting it to every one's house. Much interest is centering in the work of tin* commission, and its ini tial plans, which probablwwill fore cast its general policies, will Be wateh-i ed with keen interest by everyone who is interested in the roads of Cabarrus county. f TRADE WEEK. Concord business men have stopped at no expense to make Trade Week, which begins here Thursday, the larg est event of its kind in the history of this county. They have raised a large sum of money for the purpose of of fering attractive prizes, they have •spent much money for advertising, and j they have reduced the prices on their goods- to rock bottom. It is safe to predict that the event will be a/great success, for people are anxious to goT seasonable goods at special prices, and that is just what they’ will be able to do here during the big week. The event starts Thursday morning. May 24th, and will continue until 6 p. in., Saturday, June*2nd. 'These dates have been chosen so that the sale will run through two Saturdays. Farm people and employes of manufacturing plants do most of their shopping on Saturdays, when their work is light- est. and for this .reason the trade event will include two Saturdays. The draw ing of the prizes will take place on Saturday. .Tune 2nd. at 7 p. m.. and per jsons desiring to win the cars must be present when the drawing takes place. Concord stores will offer an unus ual line of goods for the big trade event. Heads of the business houses have ordered a large supply of goods and these will he offered at the lowest possible prices. The goods to he offer-. J ed will not he made up mostly of carry lovers, but will be commodities taat are I needed now or staple goods that are always needed. The advertisements that appear in this paper or that will appear in this paper during the week show: in a small way just what will he offered on a large scale when the trade event gets in full swing. The event has been planned by the merchants for two reasons. . First, to create more interest in Concord as a grading center, and second to create a mor trading. Persons who fail to take advantage of the price bargains to be offered l while the trade event is m progress, 1 will miss nn opportunity to save mon * ev on necessities. MAY ENTER ANOTHER FIELD. Reports from Detroit Jliat, Henry Ford may enter the textile field jvill be of general interest and of special interest to the South. Reports from the home of the automobile manufac*- j turer strife that experimei ts are undcr- I way at the Michigan Park plant of | the Fords "to determine the most ef j ficient textile machinery and methods jof weaving, so that all the necessary j information will be available whenever ( it is desired to enter the textile field.’’ It is reported that the Ford plants use annually 85,000,000 pounds of cot ton fabrics, explosive of duck, and tiiat the Ford consumption of cottor. is equal to 1.76 per cent, of the entire American crop of 1922. At the pres ent time all fabrics used Va re purchas ed' in the open market. Mr. Ford evi dt.ntly believes that he can manufac ture his own fabrics cheaper than In can purchase them. It is estimated in one report that should Mr. Ford get Muscle ;Slioals he may use part, of the power developed there to operate the textile plants he is thinking of operat ing. Slnmlds the Fords go into this line of industry, The Manufacturers Record points out, "their enormous use of cotton, wool and other fabrics would make of the Ford Motor Com pany one of the greatest textile pro ducers in the country; and that Jhe Fords have some original ideasMn con nection with the industry is indicated by the fact 'that they have turned down \offefs of several complete textile plants in the East which have been made to them.’’ The action of the County Commis sioners in authorizing It. I>. Goodman, county farm agent, to, cluck up on all cows brought into this county to de- j tcrniiqe whether or not they have been | tested for tuberculosis, is an important J step. This county during the past several months spent about $3,000 hav ing its. cows tested. It is nothing but right that cows from other counties should not be brought into this coun ty unless they too. have been tested and found to be free from tuberculo sis. There is a State law against this practice and the Commissioners have instructed Mr. Goodman to be on the lookout! ami arrest anyone who will fully brings an untested cow into this j county, unless the cow is to Do slaugh- , tered at once. There is no question about many people being poispneil ami infected from tubercular cows, and we j cannot he too careful in keeping our j cattle free from' the disease. Fred Vannatter, of Detroit, presi dent of the Northeastern Printing Com pany, and editor of the Upper Gratiot News, was held up last week, struck on the head with a blackjack and robbed of s<>3o. His assailants tied immedi ately after the robbery, leaving him unconscious in ills car, Vanatter said. Served him right: What business-bad tin editor with $630? Wm. Jennings Bryan met defeat in his campaign for the position as mod erator of the General Assembly of the Northern Presbyterian Church now in session at Indianapolis. l>r. Wishart. the moderator chosen, represents an institution where evolution is taught as a fact, while, as every one knows. Mr. Bryan is a very outspoken oppon ent of that theory. BOOSTER DAY IN CONCORD {Continued from Page One.) The winners of the prizes must be at the drawing if they get the cars. The first number drawn will be fbr the Ford, thy second for the Chevrolet. If the holder of the first numbers drawn is not present, the drawing will be continued until some person present holds the number corresponding to the i number drawn. Persons who desire to get the best line on the many bargains to be of fered during the trade event should read this paper and other issues of this paper during this and *next week. Each issue of this paper will carry special advertisements pointing out the hundreds of fine things to be offeryd at the stores, and persons reading these advertisements will be familiar with the goods to be found in the stores and will know just what they want when they enter the stores. Trade Week promises to be the big gest event of its kind in Cabarrus county. Furthermore, it promises to be one of the biggest events of its kind in the history of North Carolina. Ting goods are here. Shoppers who fail to take advantage of the bargains of fered will miss a golden opportunity 'to get seasonable goods at bargain ■ 'prices. That the farm people are busily engaged with their planting is evi -5 deneed by the fact that the usual Sat- I unlay crowd of farmers was not here . this morning. Since 1 o'clock the'nunr ber of farm people among the shop pers has increased; however. shoeing 1 that the tillers of the Hand wanted to stay at work as long as possible while the weather is favorable. 5 Service is the test of greatness, i your value to your home,' your church or city measured by what you do for them, not what you get out of ' them. THE CONCORD TIMES GOVERNOR SAYS TULL IYING HAS BEEN DONE IN STATEMENT!! He Has Already Investigat ed to Two Rumors and He Can Convince Anyone of Their Absolute Falsity. IS GOING TO EXPOSE i £ome OF THE LIARS Says He Is Satisfied Every thing Is All Right in Man agement of Penitentiary.— Is Going to the Bottom. Raleigh, May 18. (By the Associated’ Press).—-“I believe I am going to ex pose some of the blackest lying against faithful public servants ever put into circulation in-this State.” declared Governor Morrison this morning when asked for a statement,regarding action of the State prison hoard yesterday, in adopting a revised method of handling prisoners, which included abandon ment of the practice of Hogging ami the use of dark cells. "I have already investigated one or two of the rumors and could now eon time anybody ol' their infamous falsi ty." the Governor continued. The Governor stated he was “not through" with the purposes lie bad in mii;d with reference to the State's penal institutions and that he expected to go “as near the bottom of the whole matter as he had the ability to do." He declared that lie was satisfied that everything was all right in the man agement of the penitentiary ; that he had "implicit confidence’’ in the board of flinn-tors and George Pott, superin tendent of tin* prison, but that lie-"ex pected to investigate even every irre sponsible rumor" In* had heard about the penitentiary and that "if any citi zen of the State or aggrieved party had anything to add to the rumors al ready afloat" lie would be glad to hear from them. "I am going to the bottom of the whole thing and give the people the facts." declared Governor Morrison. "Instead of finding anything wrong i believe 1 am going to expose somy of the blackest lying against faithful ser vents ever put into circulation in this State.” Mrs. Johnson Says Pou’s Recommen dations are Excellent.

She stated, however, that “the suet ess of this new program will de pend largely upon the type of men whom Sept.

May 17. —Fred Stone noted comedian, turned evangelist or Broadway last bight and the old street bad a new topic of "eon versat ion today. A roa r of 'applause greeted him as lie finished one of the eccentric (lances that have made him famous, and <>.- bOd persons who packed the Metropoli tan Opera House at the National Vau deville Artists' benefit performance waited for him to swing intp another buck and wing. InsteaiHStoiie held up bis hand for quiet. "Eve got something to toll you. peo ple.’’ he said. The audience hushed, for it was re membered that Stone some weeks ago. had professed religion after he had been snowbound for several days on a train in tlie West. “Recently 1 made a statement." con tinued the comedian, "that has Iteen taken up by the public more than I thought it would be. That was my decision to cease being a passive sort of Uliristiyn and become an active worker for God. "I want to make that statement over again! I want to tell you people that a time comes in every man's life when he wants to come out and take a step like this. When you have done this you cat. l'eel secure, at peace with the world, and face the future with con fidence. "I have been criticized for not aban doning my profession after I came out for the Lord Jesus Christ. 1 want to say that my profession is as good as any in the world, and why should I abandon ifi any more than any other professional man should abandon his when he becomes a Christian.' ‘•(tod n4ed not be worshipped w.rli in the four walls of a church. Me may eayy the thought of God with us in everything we do.” The comedian finished his speech, evidently made on the spur of the mo ment, by asking his listeners to "hit tlie traii.” A thunder of applause followed him from the stage, a far greater ovation than the one gi-ren his eccentric dance. Persons who secured books iiom the library before it was dost a ror repairs and have not returned them, should do so this afternoon or tomgfit. for beginning 'Monday . they will ac cumulate fines each day. The library has been open long enough now for everyone to get the books back, it is said, and persons not returning the books, by. tonight will have to pay flues on them. : Concrete is being laid on that part of Church street, which was recently made tby cutting off part of the busi ness property. - The street will be about 17 feet .wider when the work is completed.

Salisbury, 'Nlay 17. —“Mutt” Rawing, young white man of Kannapolis, was before Judge James Webb today to answer a charge of contempt of court, and was fined $25. The ease grew out of alleged threats made by Lawing during the February term of court, the object of his threats being Rev. D. P. Grant, a young Methodist minister, who had been a witness in the O. G. Thomas murder case,. cUtd who had testified that father had bad character. The elder Tawing and several mem bers of his family were state’s wit nesses in the murder case. The al- Teged threats were made in the lobby of the courthouse just after the minister had testified. The hearing in the contempt case had been post poned ewice. Today Rawing was present with counsel and several character witnesses and also wit messes who "swore they were nearby when the alleged threats were said to have been made, and that they did not hear them. Judge Webb announced that in view of this conflicting testimony he would not send the young man to jail, and instead he imposed the fine of $25. BRYAN DEFEATED BY DR.

'POPULAR STANLY YOUNG j v LADI KILLED BY AUTOMOBILE 'Miss Shellie Atkinson Run Down by ] Auto Driven by John Talbert .ii j Palestine. ! Stanly News-llerald. J On last Friday night, near the pub lic school building at Palestine, four miles northeast of Albemarle. Miss Shellie Atkinson, the attractive lb year-old daughter of Mr. E. D. Atkin son. who lives near Porter. wa< run down by an automobile driven by Mr. John Talbert, of the Palestine section, and killed almost instantly. As a re sult of the same accident Mrs. Abe Key, of - this place, is suffering from numerous painful cuts and minor bruises, but will recover. Miss Atkinson, who had been work ing in Albemarle for some time, to gether with Mrs. Kgy. had attended tin 1 closing exercises at the Palestine school. They had left their automo bile some distance away on account of the .numerous cars crowded in about the sehoolhou.se. After the exercises ] had closed the two ladies started to] where their car had been left, and on account of the numerous cars passing the road, they had gotten outside of! the road. It seems from best informa- J tion that Talbert was either trying to j pass other cars or that lie lost control j of the car which he was driving. At j any rate by some means liis car gfd I out of the road, and as it did, it is I said the lights went out, making it im possible for Miss Atkinson and Mrs.: Key to see how to keep out of the way of it. As a result the car plung ed headlong into the two women. Miss Atkinson was knocked down and drug some distance, receiving such injuries as to cause her death about thirty minutes later. Talbert, it is reported, realizing wliat he had done, got out of his. car and fled, making his escape. Later, on Saturday morning, however, he surrendered himself to the officers and has been placed under bond for $5,000 for liis appearance in court to answer to a charge of manslaughter. Many of the locomotives on English railways are .painted green, while oth ers are gay in coats of red, royal pur ple, chocolate brown, and primrose yel low. m PARKER HAD . NO REST, SHE SAYS Got So Work Was Almost Too Much For Her.— Tanlac Again Proves Merit. "Ten Tanlac treatment gets all tlie thanks for my splendid health, and ’I haven't the slightest doubt but what it is the best medicine made,” declared Miss Sallie Parker, popular girl of Osceola Mills, Gastonia. N. U. "For a year I suffered badly with stomach trouble and nervousness, and got so run-down my work was almost too much for me. My appetite just about left me, and even the little 1 did manage to eat refused to stay on my stomach. At other times my food caused me misery from gas and pains, and I was dreadfully short of breath. I had headaches, too, and always felt tired and worn out. even after a night's sleep. ’ "Right after I liegan taking Tanlac my appetite improved and my stomach trouble, nervous ness and run-down condition have all disappeared now.
