LIFE AND GOOD DAYS: —He that

that they speak no guile. —1 Peter 3:10.
MONEY WISELY SPENT.
Reports from Raleigh say that Dr.
Rankin and his associates of the State
health department are greatly exercised
and somewhat alarmed over the wide
spread prevalence of diphtheria and the
increasingly large death rate from this
disease in North Carolina. The health
experts have learned that it is coming to
-''be a disease that continues to challenge
fcfie combative energies ■ of the medical
profession, even though it has been
thought to be largely a seasonal epidem
ic. ' t •> '
There is one bright spot in the rather
dark report concerning the spread of the
disease. That is the report that in those
counties where whole-time health men
are employed, the disease is not as prev
alent as in those counties where there is
no such public servant at work at all
times.
It costs money to keep these all-time
health men on the job, but they more
than pay for* themselves. As The Char
lotte News says ‘‘the finding is interest
ing and prophetic as well. It shows that
the wholetime health officers.* for one
thing, are worth all they may be costing
the respective counties, and it shows, ev
en better than this, that disease-preven
tion and disease-conquering jye largely
matters of public enlightenment.
“Where the peo'ple’ are instructed in
hygiene and in clean living as well as in
the simple methods to prevent epidem
ics. there is far less chance of a malady
getting a foothold than in those commun
ities that are satisfied to know nothing
about these things.’’
The health department of Cabarrus
county is paying special attention to
diphtheria at the present, and the anti
toxin is being given free of charge. Per
sons should 'take advantage of this free
treatment. The serum is the best treat
ment that has been devised by medical
science to fight diphtheria, and there is
no reason why the disease should become
very prevalent in this county.
And while we are talking about health,
we want to take this opportunity to ad
vise everyone to take the typhoid treat
ment. This treatment too. is given free
of charge at the county health depart
ment. aqd for the present anyone can get
the vaccine any time any Saturday. Lat
ter, the serum will be given several days
in the week, but now the treatments are
confined solely to Saturdays.
p* useless to.talk much now about
the value of the typhoid vaccine. Its
worth has been proved so many times
that tliejre is hardly anyone who has not
heard of its powers. It has made ty
phoid fever almost unknown in sections
where it lias been given, and this county
is one such section. The vaccine has
been given here every year for several
years, and there are few cases of the
disease in Cabarrus county. It is fool
ish for people to take chances with this
deadly disease when they can get an al
most certain preventative qgainst it by
simply calling at the office of the coun
ty health officer in the Dixie Building.
If you have never been inoculated, get
the treatment at once. If you have not
been treated within five years* you should
take the vaccine this year.
Cabarrus county is spending part of
her money each year for the upkeep of
the county health department, and while
the department has been doing valuable
work and lias always paid for itself, it
will be do even better work, and
work, on a jgrepter scale* when more peo
ple learn to take advantage of the oppor
tunity it offers.
The diphtheria and typhoid serums
are being given free now, we reepeat.
They are given every Saturday. People
and typhoid. The safe thing is to l?e
should not ; take chances with diphtheria
inpca&tfed. j It ! makes ;it both safer for
tlie Ipeysou^getting t |he treatment and for

1 NNECESSARY NOISE.
Police Commissioner Enright of Hew
fork CHy hae started a campaign to rid
{that city of so much unnecessary noise.
He points out that most of the noise
there can be eliminated, and the situa
tion has become so acute tliat something
has to bo done. We can easily under
stand how such a situation could arise in
New York,' when in the cities the size of
Concord there is so much unnecessary;
noise. x,
A case in point recently came under
the personal observation of >the editor of
the Ohio State Journal and he draws a
moral from it. The editor heard a young
man in an automobile honking his horni
terribly and insistently in front of the
house of his beloved until, after a quar
ter of an hour she appeared and joined
him for a ride, and the Journal was
moved to say: v ;
Now-of course the young man did not;
know it, but imthe house just across the.
street was a woman desperately sick.
Quiet and freedom from nerve irritation'
meant a great deal to her. perhaps life.;
These nightly honkers, and their name
is legion, are at best a good deal of nui
sance to people who feel thatVliey have
a right to reasonable quiet and some
times, probably rather often they are
more than a nuisance, a positive peril. |
The interests of the outside public,
aside, it would he much more .courteous,
for a young man calling for a young wo
man to go to the door and riug the bell,
like a civilized human being, than it is
to sit in the automobile and. honk for
her, like a bull calf standing at the bars;
and bawling for companionship.
The modern young lady and man may!
think this kind of stuff is old-fashioned
and inconsequential, but to thoughtful
people it will sound like good sense, and
it is well worth repeating.
The Greenville, S. C.. News says, “a
great deal of this unnecessary noise is
caused by good people who .are decent,
courteous and well bred in other ways:
while the balance is caused by rough
necks whose training and mentality keep
them from knowing any better. Put the
noise of the civilized person is just ns
disturbing as the noise of the swash
buckler of'ill breeding. There is always
the possibility of the woman desperately
sick across thd street, the sleeping baby
trying to rest, or an iininortal_soul pass
ing out somewhere nearby. Courteous
people should stop these useless noises
of their own accord and, the other kind
should be' made to stop them.” ,
THE VICTORY CLUBS.
A Victory Club has been organized by
Concord and Cabarrus Democrats, more
than 20 members having been signed to
the club’s membership. C. N. Fields,
prominent young Democrat, is President
of the local club and has organized it.
The club in this county is just one of
- that has been organized throughout
the United States. The clubs are being .
organized for the purpose of arousing
greater interest among the Democrats,
and it is planned to have 200,000 active
workers enrolled in these clubs when the
next Presidential eleetion is held.
Membership in the :cjlub carries with
it the pledge to pay a small amount of
money, and this money will De used by
the Democratic National Committee to
assist in its work now and during the
Presidential campaign. >
Concord and Cabarrus should have a
Targe and active club, and President
Fields will be glad to enroll any new
members who desire to affiliate with the
local organization.
THE PRESIDENT GIVES IN.
President Harding has given in to the
Senators who are opposed to his world
court plan. This attitude of the resi
dent has been expected and feared fi*om
the start by those persons who think his
original court plan is sensible and worth
while. Rut he had no sooner made public
his plan than certain Senators came out
in opposition to it. declaring that they
would demand reservations and amend
ments that would make his plan null and
void. Just after these Senators had
spoken the President gave indications
that he would stick to his original plans,
but in his St. Louis speech several
nights ago he gave “tip the fight,”
suggested that the entire machinery of
the' international court be reconstructed
so that he United States would join
it wuhout any opposition from the Sen
ate.
In other words, he wants to make the
whole court a pact that means nothing.
He wants to get it -entirely away from
the League of Nations, which is hated
yet by many Republican leaders. And
rather than have a split in his party, he'
is going to give fill his convictions for the
convictions of his party leaders. He is
willing to sacrifice the good of the Unit
ed States and the rest of the world for
the peace of the Republican party.
Mr. Harding is not a fighting type of
resident and while his St. Louis speech
came as a surprise at this time, it was
just about what the country expected
later. The opponents of the President’s
proposal had carried their fight to the
Republican national convention commit
tee, and with a split in the committee in
prospect, the President did not hold out
very long for his original proposal.
A FINE RECEDENT.
While holding court in Greensboro re
cently Judge Stack set a good example in
dealing with cases in which reckless driv
ing of automobiles and in which liquor
had its way at the steering wheel by sen
tencing those guilty to the roads under
suspended sentence.
The Durham Herald suggests that this
policy should be adopted by Judges all
over the State, and this suggestion is
worthy of consideration. “It is the best
solution,” it remarks, “that we have
heard of for curbing drivers who. disre
gard the ,safefy. ; of life and limbs of. oth
ers. eoyispended sentence is a great de
tjecren th atfrime.. If a man| knows that
the n< int 3’ c© he injures anjfaxiy by care
leesni - • U bare to go to jail or the
roads, he is going to be a mighty careful
driver. Then the 60-day deprivation of
the privilege of driving a car gives him
ample time to think the matter over and
arrive at the conclusion that it is to his
1 interest to use every care when operat
, ing an automobile. ’
Legislators are not expected to lose;
sleep over the announcement that no spe
, eial session of the North Carolina Gen-;
eral Assembly will be called this summer
by Governor Morrison. The commission
investigating the Governor’s plan for
shipping facilities to be operated by the
State is not expected to have its report
ready for six months, and the Assembly,
will not be called until the report is
ready. Raleigh, while a very interesting
city, and a city filled with lovahle peo
ple, is not the best place to spend the;
month of July or August, and we feel
that the legislators will enjoy a special
session more during the winter than they,
would during the summer. ;

Chicago. June 21. —The longest day
of the year also was tin* hottest in many
sections of the country and sweltering
inhabitants of the present heat belt

over Chicago and the middle west Mon
day and has since spread to the#Atlantic
Coast, continued here today. More than
20 prostrations were added to the list
of 17 dead and numerous prostrations.
Western New Mexico is in the grip
of a cold wave that has damaged gar

hours.
MAY BRING SALES
OF 171.306 FORDS
Production Only Limiting N Factor to
Deliveries. So Great is the Demand.
Detroit. Mich.. June 23.—Sales of
Ford cars and trucks in the United
States for the month of "May totaled
171.306 according to a report just is
sued by the Ford Motor company.
The May sales were more than 5.500
greater than those of April, due to in
creased output.
Production has been the only limit
ing factor in the sales of Ford cars and
trucks since January, for at all times
orders on hand have been in excess of
the manufacturing capacity of the com
pany, great as it ; s.
The high production schedule which
has been effect the last few months,
however, permitted May to show a
gain of 44.243 retail deliveries over the
corresponding month last year, and it
marks the fourteenth consecutive mouth
in which sales have gone over 100,000.

1021 in Asheville, maintaining a fliome
there and handling much of the work
of his office from there. The office here
will be kept open, with the staff of
secretaries in charge and only a
stenographer will be used at Asheville
to haudlle the necessary correspondence,
requiring the governor’s personal atten
tion. He plans to go to Asheville July
1.
Governor Morrison has been badly ito
need of an extended rest for some time.
The severe and irksome duties of his
office have weighed heavily upon him
for the last few months; and the need
for rest is considered urgent.

County Agent Philips Wants to Get CaJ

This County.
, According to the contents of a letter
County Agent Goodman, of this county,
has received from County Agent Phil-
of Stanly County, the boll weevil is
, about as numerous in Stanly this year
as it is in Cabarrus, fin his letter to
Mr, Goodman the Stanly agent stated,
that he wanted Jto get a supply of'cal-,

tV) be distl ibuted} pnu>n]g [St/Mi)}y,,
farmers.
Mr. Goodman recently ordered a car
of the weevil poison, and as all of it has.
not been taken by the Cabarrus farmers,'
it is probable that part of it will be sold
to Mr, Philips, who in turn will distrib
ute it among the Stanly farmers who need;
it most. ’ ;
The calcium arsenate, Mr. Goodman
states, is the best poison available for
the weevil fight. While it has not been
used much by farmers in this and ad
joining counties, it is not hard to use,
and lie expects its general use-to greatly
reduce the number of weevils in this coun
ty this year.
‘‘The fact that weevils have been
found on many farms in this county this
year shows that they must be fought, I ’’;
Mr. Goldman added. “On some of, the
farms the weevils have been founds in
great numbers, anti it is especially—im
portant that the owners of these farms'
take every possible step to wipe them out.
The poison I have received is the most
practical that can be used, l think, and:
as it is easily applicable, farmers should,
make general use of it.”

DEDICATION OF EPWORTH
CHURCH SUNDAY MORNING
(Continued from Pace One!
preaching. “He had been stoned and
persecuted, but he wAs no quitter. At
this time he says “God revealed His Sou;
in me.’ Heretofore he had said ‘to me,’!
but now the Son was revealed ‘in Him.’
There is a great difference. Paul told the!
people at this time, ‘We must through;
much tribulation enter into the King
dom.’ Tribulation comes from a La tip.
word that was derived from flail. A flail;
is ail instrument used tosjbeat wheat, toi
get rid of the chaff. So Paul says we.
must get rid of the chaff. That only the ;
wheat enters the Kingdom.” ;
In connection with an experience of
Paul's near Troy Bishop Denny touched
on the modern teudeney to be discourte-*
oifs and criticised divorce. “When ad-|
dressed on the boat by a friend,” Bishop
Denny said. “Paul arose. He arose be-;
'cause he was a gentleman. Christianity
makes gentlemen. The 19th amendment
should not affect our courtesy, but it
seems'to have done so.
“Christ was a gentleman. XVhen He
talked with the bad woman, who He knew
had had five husbands and was living!
then with a man that was not her hus-:
band, Christ did not make her guilt pub
lic. He 'sent the other men away. But
today we •go into courts and with the 1
divorce laws virtually trade wives and
husbands, all without God’s sanction.” !
High tribute was paid by Bishop Den-:
ny to women and their influence on the
world in connection Ivith an incident in!
Paul’s life when he preached to a crowd
near the sea at Athens, when women pre-;
dominated in the congregation. ' “I am;
asked now, “Bishop Denny said, “If I;
don’t preach to more women than men. I:
answer yes, and it arouses my anger;
when the answer is met with sneers.
Some of the greatest characters in the
Church have been led into it through the;
•influence of some good woman. The
world today would soon go to ruin with
out the influence of the mother on her
children.”
Near Athens Paul aided a man whose
reputation had been sold by men. and
he was hailed into court, and without
reason was ordered whipped. This expe
perience was used by Bishop Denny to
show that a fair and just judicial sys
tem is the backbone of a country. "This
country has been blesed,” he said, “be
cause we have had a just and strong ju
diciary. This was not true in Paul’s
day, He was given 195 lashes on his
back, which was torn by the leather
things which were studded with metal
and caught at each end with a wooden
ball which was filled with tacks. But the
195 licks did not make him renounce his
faith. llow many of us could stick to
our faith under the same conditions?
There are plenty of' people now who will
quit their Church and denounce their
faith if they can’t have theii way all of
the time.”
Bishop Denny also criticised those
people who are always looking for the
big jobs and big places. "Paul was in
many humble places. He was called to
preach in lonfly communities, yet we
do not. hear him making complaint. In
this'day we hear of people quitting their
conference, and sometimes their Church,
because they can’t get a big job."
In connection \Vith Paul’s experience
in prison when the prison doors were
opened by Divine power and the jail
er wanted to commit suicide. Bishop
Denny’ declared that “suicide is the last
refuge of the coward, and they are not
all demented, either.” In prison Paul
did not complain, but saug “God is My
Refuge." That is the spirit needed to
day by Christians.
After he had served Christ for 31
years Paul went back to Rome. While
being led to the outskirts, of the city,
where he was to be beheaded, he met a
Roman Senator, who had been making
the laws and living like a king. “I
imagine the senator looked with dis
dain on Paul.” Bishop Denny stated,
making this opportunity to criticise
those persons who think the United
States can live alone. “The senator
probably fait that he had been doing all
he should have doue by stayiug at home
and grinding out fortunes, feeliug that
he had no time for international courts
or leagues.
“Paul also passed a dancing girl, a
society leader, who had been dancing
and carousing all night. The paint had
run off her cheeks and she was ghostly
and pale-eyed. But she thought she had
been having a good time. I recently
asked a young girl, who said to me.
‘we should be allowed to have a good
time.’ what she called a good time, and
she had a hard time telling me any
thing.
v. “Near the gate of the city Paul
passed a healer, a person who cured
without medicine, and who was gerting
rich, just as we have persons faking
fortunes now.”
Bishop Demiv declared that Paul had
no fear of death. “He characterized
the day he was to die as ‘my reception
day in heaven.’ and there was a heaven
ly light on his face and joy in his soul.
How many of us are like that?
“PauT* was to pay with his life for
his faith. He had already been prosecut
ed, abused and denounced. Now he was
on his way to be beheaded, and yet with
his shackle chains playing the ac
companiment of his lialeleuh song, he
saug out. ‘lf T had 10.000 lives I would
give them all to God.”
God gives its our debts, Bishop Denny
declared- in conclusion, and we must
repay them. i
