A Civic Department in this city en couraging the planting of trees on neg lected highways, beautifying the city we live in by putting oil a crepe myrtle cam paign. and planting at least two of these beautiful trees in every yard would be a great addition to the beauty of the city. A larger enrollment than we now have would add to the strength of each differ ent organization niyl would make the Woman’s (Tub a more vital factor in the community, its only aim and object for existence.

Charlotte News. Business prospects for the fall months, as reflected by that usually accepted barometer, the number of merchants from all parts of the country assembled in New York for the buying of fall goods are good according to B. Frank Matthews of Belk Brothers department store- who has just returned from New York. Mr. Matthews and sixty other buyers from the 32 Belk department stores and W. 11. Belk. head of the Belk system, were in New York at the same time. There is no frantic rush for fall goods on the part of merchants who were in New York during the past two weeks to lay in their fall stocks of goods but the buying in steady, Mr. Matthews said. Merchants from the west and Middle West showed more hesitancy about buy ing than merchants from other parts of the country, probably because a partial failure of the grain crop in that part of the country makes conditions there some what more depressing than Hiey are in other parts of the country, he said. I "Although there was a disposition on the part of buyers to use discrimination and not to rush in to buying goods with out careful consideration, there was a great deal of buying and my impression was that the buyers were all optimists as the the business outlook for the coming season. "In this part of the country there has been a notable continuance of busi ness activity during the summer months. For example in the months of July and August, which are usually very dull months, the tide of business has remained good. As to the outlook for the fall months I am distinctly an optimist.’’ DEATH ON YESTERDAY • OF JOHN McINNIS Was Oldest Mason in Concord.—Funeral {Services Held This Afternoon.
