MONDAY, JUNE 19th, 1922 BURNING OF CREAMERY IS A DISTINCT, LOSS The destruction of the Lincolnton Creamery by fire is a distinct" loss to this section. It was on a paying basis and by all means should . be rebuilt and continued in operation. It is a concern which distributes thousands of dollars annually in Lincoln, Cataw ba, Mecklenburg, Cleveland and other counties in this section. It has been of great benefit to Lincolnton and Lin coln County. A concern that has a ca pacity for turning out 1500 gallons of ice cream daily, and 2,000 pounds of butter a day, and which purchases the raw product, butterfat from the farmers of this section, thus distribut ins: thousands of dollars in milk checks to the producer is worth much to anv community, and Lincolnton and Lincoln County should give every en couragement possible to this concern which was met with misfortune, that it may rise from the ashes and con tinue as an industry here . It is un thinkable that Lincoln Ice Cream is not on the bill of fare. In checking up our personal budget how difficult it is to cut down the "luxuries." Almost every day some man of wealth feels moved to make a dona tion to a good cause. Mr. R. H. Wright, of Durham, who recently gave $10,000 for the erection of a home for neglected and homeless chil dren, has added $50,000 as an endow ment. The distinguishing character istic of North Carolinians is their re solve to give orphans and neglected children a better chance . "Play is the antidote of most of the social, ill .that1 beseta community,' Whitehead JUuttz told" the Fayette Ville school children.. Let's all play and make life "one grand sweet song" but we must work betven games. The Chautauqua Redpaths-comes here Tuesday for an engagement of 5 days. Last year's attractions pleased those in attendance, and this year's program is said to surpass that of last year. Good reports have come in advance from those sections where the Chautauqua has appeared, and this community may attend expecting to be entertained. ROWDY BASEBALL The rowdyism at the National game in Charlotte some days ago is receiv ing nothing but condemnation, and deservedly so. The Agusta, Georgia, Chronicle voices the sentinent of right thinking fans when it says: The public has seen the account of the Charlotte "baseball riot" with much chagrin; and more disgust.' . Both sides the "fans" and the players were at fault; the former throwing bottles, the latter for sling ing bottle back, maiming a child and cutting a man. A baseball player who would hurl bottles into a grandstand filled with women and children is not wanted in the South Atlantic League. We do not want to see him at Warren Park, no matter to what club he belongs. Baseball and knock-down-and-drag out fighting are not allied one with the other. Those who want to see baseball, and are willing to pay for it, are not going to stand for being in sulted with rowdyism when they go to the baseball park. Let that be thor oughly understood. Let the halt be called now. The Chronicle is-very glad that Au gusta is free and is to be kept free from unseemly rows of this kind. Washington, June 17.Former Pres ident Wilson is in better health that he was a year ago, it was learned to day from persons who are in daily touch with him. In spite of rumors to the contrary, the former chietu tive shows surprising vitality and mental alertness, it is said. Every day, rain or clear, he takes a long drive in his automobile, always ac companied by Mrs. Wilson and one or two friends of the family.

All teachers oi prospective teachers who desire to be admitted to this summer school will please notify me immediately in order that I may make provisions for tak ing care of the number of teachers who will attend this school, f Very Truly yours, L.

William Hoke Ram saur, native of western North Caro lina, and missionary of the Episco pal church at the Liberian mission, have been received and are sent out by the publicity department of the church, as follows: Mr. Ramsaur survived his' wife only four months, her death having occurred in January of this year, They returned to Liberia early ; in January, 1922 after eight months furlough in the United States. When Bishop Overs left Monrovia in April returning to this country, Mr. Ram saur was convalescing from an at tack of pneumonia. Before sailing the bishop arranged for Mr. Ram saur to be taken from Cape Mount to Monrovia, with the understanding that as soon as he was sufficiently recovered for an ocean voyage he should come home . Apparently Mr. Ramsaur was making a good recovery. A cable dated May 27 announecd that he was sailing for the United States on June 15. This was followed with in two days by a cable announcing his death. Mr. Ramsaur was a member of a prominent North Carolina fam ilj. After taking his A. B. degree at the University of North Carolina, he spent the; next two academic years in serving as general secretary of the Young Men's Christian associa tion in the University of Alabama. In 1912 he became a candidate for the ministry with the mission field clearly in view. After a year at the Philadelphia Divinity school. Mr. Ramsaur traveled as one of the se cretaries of the student volunteer movement for two academic years. In 1914 he was ordained to : the diaconate, while still at the Divinity school, and became an assistant in the parish of the Holy Apostles, Philadelphia. While still in the Divinity school Mr. Ramsaur had looked forward to becoming a missionary amongst Mo hammedian peoples . The church in America having no distinctively Mohammedian work, he at first considered the possibility of serving in connection with the church of England. Finally he be came convinced that the opportunity for work among Mohammedians in Liberia, to which his attention had been called by the board of mis sion, was "a definite call to him. "I am perfectly willing," 1 he wrote to Bishop Llloyd at this time "to go anywhere in the world. I would prefer going to China, but the pres sure drawing me out . of the Mo hammedian fields has grown strong er during these years of quiet and unhurried consideration." With char acteristic devotion and thoroughness he had been devoting spare time in the proceeding years of the study of Arabic. In December, 1918. Mr. Ramsaur was appointed for Liberia and a year later started for the field with Bishop Overs, who had been consecrated a few weeks pre viously. In June 1920, Mr. Ramsaur married Miss Sarah Conway, ' who had already served for eight years as a missionary in Cape Mount. Mr. Ramsaur was deeply im pressed with the importance of in dustrial work among primitive peo ple. "I wish,' he said, when notified that he was to be assigned to Liberia "that I could spend these next four months at saw mills, brick yards, etc.', preparing myself to be of prac tical value to the people." Bishop Overs entered wholeheart edly into Mr. Ramsaur's convictions with regard to industrial work and offered him the interesting task of developing an industrial and agri cultural school at Cape Mount. While on furlough in this country in 1921, Mr. Ramsaur traveled widely through the eastern and middlewest ern section of the country enlisting everywhere cooperation in the plans that he and Bishop Overs had formed; He returned to Liberia with sufficient funds to organize and equip the new school on a modest basis.

Take dug notice hereof and be pres ent or send a written proxy. Lincoln Creamery and Ice Cream Co., By E. I. Mosteller, President . W. M. Blanton, Sec.-Treas, , COUNTRY FACING PROTEST STRIKE RAILROAD LABOR Cincinnati, June 18. Formal notice was served tonight on th") railroad la bor boards by the chiefs of 10 railroad unions of their intention to go through with a strike in event one is authoriz ed by 1,250,000 workers whose wages are to be reduced July 1, on orders of the board. Coupled apparently with the action of the rail union leaders with a state ment that the "railroad workers have no alternative except to fight," made by John L. Lewis, leader of the strik ing coal miners who will meet with the rail union leaders Tuesday to con sider joint strike action. .' He also pledged the miners aid to the rail men, but declined to state definitely what aid might result from joint action. The notice sent to the railroad labor board, in the form of a letter, reiterat ed the rail union leader's attitute on the threatened : walkout, which was first definitely asserted in their state ment issued here Thursday night. The previous statement also includes the declaration that an overwhelming vote was being cast for the walkout. In their letter to the board the rail men said: .- "When there occurs a miscarriage of justice of such colossal and per manent injury to railway labor as your decisions will bring about, the only means of remedy which the in. jured parties have is to refuse to ac cept your decisions This procedure is perfectly legal. While it should on ly be used as a last resort, our mem bership may decide it to be fully justi fied by our denial of elementary and long established rights and by the se riousness of the situation which you have created. Your divisions have been submitted to a strike vote of our membership, and we are awaiting the results of their action. Should our members deside not to accept your de cision, or, in other words, to strike, we shall sanction and advise you ac cordingly." Senator Kellogg says the Republi can party has passed "more acts bene fiting the farmers than the Democrats did in the ten years previously." He cannot prove if by a single dirt farm er. They know what they were re ceiving for their crops when the Re publicans took control of Congress in 1919, and they felt the slump that came thereafter. The blight followed Republican success in 1918 which en abled them to stop all the wheels and destroy Wilson's policies that had giv en the" largest prosperity the farmer had ever known. WIND AND RAIN STORM SWEEPS OVER ATLANTA Atlanta, Ga.. June 18. Damaereg estimated at several thousand dollars was done here late Sunday afternoon by a terriffic wind and rain storm that lasted for nearly an hour.

DODGE BROTHERS BUILD NEW COUPE Closed Car For Business Men Is Dis tinct Achievement In Automotive Field, First With All Steel Body Other Cars Have New Body Design. Behind the simple phraseology of an announcement which Dodge Bro thers, Detroit automobile manufac turers, are publishing today in every important city and town in America, lies the story of a new achievement in automobile development. "Dodge Bro thers announce a business coupe; con- Servative changes in the body design of all other types," the advertisement reads': . - " The business coupe is the first all steel closed car ever, marketed. In this respect it takes a new and dis tinct place in automotive history, for it involves an entirely unique princi ple of coupe body construction. The steel body not only practically elimin ates the problem of limited produc tion due to the tedious and "nstly indi vidual workmanship required on wood bodies, bat also enables the A Chautauqua Number For Wednesday, Second Day Gretchen Cox and Supporting Artists Coming at Chautauqua J.3. Gretchen Cox and Company, appearing here at the coming Redpath Chautauqua, will te headed by Gretchen Cox, premier violinist, who has. cap tivated audiences In all parts of the UnlteiJ States. Metropolitan newspapers and music journals throughout the country accord most enthusiastic praise to the remarkable ability of this talented musician. She will be supported by two accomplished artists a vocalist and a pianist manufacturers to give the coupe the same lustrous baked enamel finish which has already contributed so much to the reputation of Dodge Bro thers open cars. The process in itself will also facilitate quantity " produc tion, as an enormous amount of time was consumed heretofore in applying the numerous coats of paint required on wood. Naturally, these are important fac tors in the determination of the sell ing price, resulting in economies Dodge Brothers are passing directly to the purchaser. "Wood is practical ly eliminated from the construction of this car," said M. H. Hoy le the local dealer. "Even the framework and panels are of steel, the natural re sult is a lighter, quieter and more dur able car. Steel prolongs life and re duces the possibility of squeaks and rattles'. ' . "The Business men of America have been expecting such a coupe and Dodge Brothers have given it to them. "It is in reality a coupe at a roads ter price. While it is easily attrac tive enough for any use, it is particu larly designed for the business man who needs the comfort and protection of a closed car in his work, but who can easily get along without a few of the luxuries which, in the past have made the closed car so expensive. The business coupe is built inside and out to withstand the wear and tear of ev ery day use and yet it retains the same lightness and beauty of line which everyone is accustomed to look for in Dodge Brothers closed cars. It lacks only what I might term the, de preciation liabilities of the more ex pensive coupe. It is upholstered in genuine leather, had a wide, comforta ble straight seats, is equipped with cord tires, heater, dome light, wind shield cleaner and adjustments for raising and ' lowering win dows. . The . doors are un usually wide and the fiiited with new easy closing Yale locks. . There is more, than the usual amount of leg room and convenient and spacious luggage., compartments are provided. Doctors, real estate men and sales men of all kinds will find it just the car they need. . We already .have good indications of a tremendous demand. "The change of design in the other Dodge Brothers cars indicates that while Dodge Brothers have always ad hered closely to the practical they are also progressive and abreast of the time. It is Dodge Brothers policy to make improvements year after year and month after month and this is simply another step forward." SECOND PRIMARY Catawba Springs Township.
