organized, orderly, competitive, sport s
' manlike, and skilled in many athletic
games and contests. They can be bank

CONCORD AND GASTOKIA IN
SCORELESS FOOTBALL GAME
- - -
Two Teams Slewed Again That They
Are About Evenly Matched.—Riden
heur Made Lcng Run.
The Concord and Gastonia high school
football teams played another sanppy
game Tuesday ‘afternoon when they met
for the second time this season. The
game was played at the Gibson Mill
park here and resulted in a scoreless tie.
As was the ease in Gastonia, when Con
cord was defeated !> to (>, the teams show
ed Tuesday that they are very evenly
•matched. There was little to choose be
tween the two elevens and a tie game
was the most natural result. Both teams
showed strong on the defense, but
could not muster enough offense to score.
The game was the last of the year for
the Concord team and was the fourth tie
game they had played this season. The
team disbanded after the game.
During most of the game Tuesday the
ball was in the center oft lie field, show
ing the almost equal strength of the
teams. Neither team was* closer to the
goal than the 20-yard line, and with one
exception, when Ridenhour, of the Con
cord team, got off to a long sprint, the
goals were not threatened.
Ridenhour, quarterback of the local
team, played about half of the game. He
was injured early in the season and the
game Tuesday was the second he lmd
played ni since he was hurt. Sullivan
ran the team when Ridenhour was not
playing, and as lias been the case most
of the season, proved the best ground
gainer for the Concord team.
Armstrong was the best offensive play
er for Gastonia. The slim back ran the
Concord ends for good gains at times,
but he did not have enough support to
score.
Toward the last of the game Rideu
hour received a punt and with splendid
interference carried the ball about fifty
yards. It looked at first that he was off
to a touchdown , but he skirted the side
lines too closely, and when he reversed
back into the field, he was stopped.
Three Hi-Y Clubs Hold Regular Weekly
Meetings at the “Y.”
The Senior Hi-Y boys and girls* club
held their regular meetings last night at
the "Y” with their respective leaders.
Primarily a business meeting was held
by each club, the regular Bible study
being left off. as the clubs were busy
mapping out a program for their year’s
work.
The boys are turning their attention
at present to the Older Boys’ Conference,
which is to be held in Greensboro Novem
ber 30th to December -2nd, and to the
Father and Son Banquet which will be
held at the Y'. M. C. A. December 13th.
The Hi-Y boys will have actual charge
of promoting this banquet. They will
arrange the program, sell tickets, and
thoroughly advertise the banquet in all
schools and churches. The girls will
serve.
A White Christmas is being planned
in which every Hi-Y" lnemberVvill have
an active part. A large tree will be
placed in front of the “Y," and will be
loaded with useful gifts, which will be
distributed to the needy by the boys aud
girls.
The Junior Ili-Y' members held their
first meeting Tuesday night, ’and al
though they are not thoroughly organ
ized. they have an enthusiastic bunch of
fellows and bid fair to have a good club
and to be right along with the other.two
clubs when there is anything to be done.
They will meet again next Tuesday
night, at which time they will,;begin
their regular program and Bible’study.
The girls are putting all their effort
toward the YVliite Christmas and tlie
Mother and Daughter Pow YVow which
will be held in January. They decided
to use the same pin that (lie Hi-Y r boys
use except they will have a G. C. in tiic
place of Hi-Y printed on them. The
girls have already begun work as they
had charge of distributing tickets for the
pictun—"The Life of Christ”—which
was shown at the “Y” last Saturday
night.
The Organ Recital Last Evening.
An audience all of whom could not find
seating space in the handsome new For
est Hill Methodist Church, was present
Tuesday evening at: the organ recital giv
en by. Dr. H. A. Shirley, dean of the
music' department of Sajem College. The

built by M. P. Moller, of Hagerstown,
Md.. and is a large two-manual instru
ment of the very latest design and equip
ment. - The various numbers on the pro
gram were rendered in a masterly man
ner and with great musical intelligence,
and thoroughly tested the powers and
range of the organ. "Holy Night” and
BeethovCn's "Minuet” were especial fav
orites with the audience. The following
was the programme:
3. Aria—Bach.
2. Minuet—Beethoven.

THE COUNTY OF CABARRUS
Written For the North Carolina
Historical Commission by Col.
Fred A. Olds.
Raleigh, Nov. 2G.—“The county of
Cabarrus was erected December 31, 1792,
>ut of the Northeastern part of Meck
lenburg and was named in honor of
Cabarrus, of Edenton. speaker
>f the state house of commons,” accord
ing to a history of the county written
for the North Carolina Historical Com
mission by Col. Fred A. Oldis. “Its
•ounty seat. Concord, was named for the
town wtyere the opening battle »of the
Revolution, in Massachusetts, was
fought.
“The act creating tiie county provided
that James Harris. Joseph Moore Car
oenter, William Orr. George Alepander,
Zaeheus Wilson, Paul Barringer, John
Lippard. Joseph Shinn. Daniel Jarrett,
Alexander Ferguson, James Bradshaw,
James Harris, Sr.. Archibald Hunter.
Benjamin Patton and Robert Smith
should fix on the most central place for
the court house and jail and Amt three
of their number should buy fifty acres
of land at such place and contract for
the erection of these buildings as soon
as the commissioners had fixed on the
site. The first county court was held
in January, 1793, at the home of Rich
ard Russell, to divide the county and
do other business. \
“The first court house was not built
until 1795, up to that time private build
ing being used. The court house was
used until 1835, when one of brick suc
ceeded it. In 1870 this one was burned
by a lire which started in a dwelling, and
the will books up to 1843 were destroyed,
while all the deed books were saved. The
present court house was built in 1878.
“Members' of the United States Con
gress boru in Cabarrus county were
Daniel L. Barringer, Daniel M. Bar
ringer and William C. Houston.”
t Be Made to Work.
A good many go-called perpetual
motion machines have beep invented,
and the patent office records disclose
hundreds of these. The chief difficulty
with all of them is the same: the fact
that they do not work. Scientists
have shown that perpetual motion is
impossibility and inventors are |
wasting their time and energy by at
tempting to produce such a machine
that will work.
Can Make Flower Scents.
Nearly all flower scents can be suc
cessfully imitated by judicious blend
ing of artificial odors. That of the
Jasmine is the most notable excep
tion.
