Ths plan is to apply the building and loan principle to the ru ral sections and enable men to- save money and buy farms by the. same process the men o the cities save money, borrow and buy homes. An enthusiastic building and loan man of Concord has read of the new move ment started at -Wadesboro ;with much interest, 'and be declares ; that the movement will spread and that many organizations similar to the Dixie improvement Company will be established in this section. V; Concord is a good building Vand loan city. .The. people are beginning to take advantage of the opportuni ties tney oner, me new pian re quires more capital to begin with than the building and wan. .The plan is to sell small tracts of land to people 1 a; ! i . i ' wao orainaray rent iana on snares, a comfortable borne being erected for the accommodation: fo the renter or purchaser. -The eotttifact includes provisions requiring the proper cul tivation and fertilisation of the land for the production of the maximum crop, and the rental is paid for a stip ulated number of years, the number of years depending upon the share-of tne crop required. At the end or the specified number of years, the land is deeded m fee simple to the renter or purchaser. 1 - There is no doubt but that such an organization as is described would be of great benefit to Cabarrus county, and it is not improbable that one may be organized. c-A ft:3"-St v;' Teacher Secured for Winecoff High 'Notwithstanding the misfortune of two teachers not being able to fulfill the contract, - the Winecoff i High School will open Monday ; October 10th with Mr. C. jn.'- Fontaine; of rycketV'Va-.; High" School Principal Jllr.

Hibbes, of Columbia, S. ., will this evening address a mass meeting of the citizens and. voters of Charlotte oa the commission form of city government, a,. system that was recently put into effect by Columbia. There is a strong and growing senti ment in Charlotte in favor of adopt in gthe commission form in the place of the obsolete system now in use and some, formal action looking to ward the putting into effect of the new system, with a new city charter, will probably be taken. There is an ktmense amount 4f interest in the mass meeting and a large attendance of citizens as assured. - v - Charlotte ioday faces the necessity of going at once to the Catawba river for its water supply at a nexpense of something like $250,000. It is also necessary at once to construct sev eral miles of water mains and sewer lines, pave a large number of streets wool erect one or two new bcqooi ouua- i T 1. l i !,a ings. It .is estimated that these im provements will cost from $800,000 to $1,000,000 and a bond issue for one of these amounts will be made. There is a strong sentiment for the bond issue but there are many citizens who will refuse to vote for it unless the commission form of government is adopted with its assurance of can and judgment in the expenditure of that large amount of money. It is calculated that the increased. : re ceipts f the waterworks .department and a small tax on sewer lines will easily pay the interest, on the neces sary bonds and create a- quick sink: m fund- .

This means that in stead of having one central building with one common kitchen and dining room, there will 'be a number of cot tages capable of housing twenty-five children,' and each cottage will be a complete home in iteelf, with all the facilities for borne life. : This is a de parture from the usual method in the South, but it is recognized as the lat est and best thing in orphanage work in this country. This plan will in volve the building of a large school house, while the cottages . will be grouped around it, each with its own front and back' yairdT thus forming an ideal colony for the training of the children in the best possible manner, - An Unfounded Rumor,. There was a rumor going the rounds Thursday night that the ' unknown man killed at Cook's crossing Tues day night by train No. 43, waa a man named Smith, who lived at itbe Gib son mill, and that his wife had gone to . Glass, and after inspecting the and other wearing apparel of the dead man identified them as those ef her husband.

A compromise has 1 been agreed upon in the case of the Charlotte Na tional Bank vs. the Southern Rail way Company, in. which $35,000 was asked. The case grew out of the failure a few years ago of the Heath Reid Job and Commission Company to whom the bank loaned $35,000,- the company putting up bills of lading on a large amount of cotton as col lateral. The cotton was of course subject to these 'bills of lading but it was moved without notice to the bank and the suit against the railroad re sulted. By the compromise the rail road grees to pay the bank $22,000, It is understood that Messrs. B. D. and E. J. Heath, members of the bankrupt firm, will make up the dif ference to the bank, which will lose no money by the deal. -1 . . p ; ' Dr. Victor C B.
