| THE MAN WHO KNEW AND WHAT CAME OF IT
i i We knew a man with an automobile, who said he was a careful driver !i!
X —ANI) HE WAS! ' j],
J [ He said he would never injure anyone—AND HE DIDN’T
i i He said if anythin); happened, it would be the other fellow's fault— X
X AND IT WAS! i|,
X That didn't prevent the other fellow from demanding damages—AND V
iji ■■ HE DID! X
X Our man said it wasn’t his fault and that he would not pay any- ill
i j i thing—AND HE DIDN'T! X
i 1 The other chap said: “I’ll sue you”—AND HE DTD!
X OiTr friend's lawyer said: “We can beat him in court”—AND THEY 'I I
iji DID! . X
V Whereupon our friend said: “Ha, Ha, I win!”— i'i
X i AND THEN X
iji He paid his lawyer a fee, plus expenses and ran his car the rets ot file X
X . year at. his ..own risk—FOOLISH WASN’T HE? iji
!j i . There was a cheaper way out, and we had told him about it, but Ji'
iji he' would 'not listen. i X

Kannapolis is a new town compara
tively speaking, but in civic matters it
is rapidly growing. Its streets are
clean and orderly, its movie is up-to-date
qnd undefiled by gross sensualism. Its
shopping center provides good goods at
good prices, and it has a Woman's Club
which works all the time.
Tlte town never having observed the
world Memorial Day has this year under
the auspices of the civic department of
the Woman's Club paid dim reverence
to those who made the ultimate sacrifice
ou the altars of democracy.
The ceremony was held Sunday after
noon at 3 o'clock- at the local cemetery.
Tlte Boy Scouts marched in carrying
the flag and planted it on Lieutenant
Hunsucker's grave. From that point
the double quartette sang, “America, the
Beautiful." This was followed by
prayer.
Mr.. Kluttz, formerly of Charlotte, in
troduced Mr. Oglesby, of Concord, who
made the address of the day.
He spoke solemnly of the struggle
which cost so many lives and the pa
triotism which never dies in the Amer
ican heart.
•He was followed by the ceremony of
the Scouts taking oath around the flag
and the exercises closed with a thou
sand voices singing, "America.”
The Social Hour Club met with Mrs.
E. J. Sharpe Tuesday afternoon from
3 to 5 o'clock at her home on Main
Street. This being the last meeting for
the year new officers were elected. Mrs.
M. L. Troutman, having served two
years as president, resigned. Mrs. G.
A. Bryant was elected to fill her piace.
Mrs. J. H. Halstead was re-elected vice
president, and Mrs. Sam Keily was
elected secretary and treasurer to suc
ceed Mrs. Leon Smith, who felt unable
to serve longer. After the business
eneh member present and also each
guest was presented attractive little
memorandum books and sweet peas as
souvenirs. Rook was played at four
tables after which a delicious salad
course and salted almonds were served
by the hostess, assisted by Mrs. Edd
Lady and Mrs. J, H. HaL’tead. The
favors were dainty powder , uffs.
Weekly Cotton Revie v.
New York, June 6.—The hrst gov
ernment crop report of the season show
, ing an end-May condition of 65 6 was
under expectations and was followed by
u flurry of buying in the market here
on Monday. 'Hie demand appenred to
be supplied on an advance to 27-50 for
I October contracts which represented a
recovery of over 3 1-2 cents per pound
from the low level of last April, how
i ever, and the market has since reacted
, owing to the a<ppenranee of more fnvor
-1 able weather conditions in the south.
■ reports of a continued poor demand for
i cotton goods and the apparent failure
of the low condition figures to stimu
i late competition for remaining old crop
supplies.
GompnratilveJy tittle *pot demand
has been reported since the filling of
’ May engagements and ns prices reacted
, following the advance of the govern
. ment. crop report, the market was nn
i settled by the development of July
, liquidation.
Much, of this probably represented the
[ liquidation of old straddle accounts,
I July being sold against purchases of. Oc
. tober, and the difference, 1 between the
> two months narrowed to something less
, than 250 points toward the end of this
week compared with a difference of
over 300 ]stints toward the end of last
I March.
, At this narrower difference offerings
of July seemed to be a little better taken
, ami while no improve ment was resport
ed in the -volume of sjiot business in the
, south, spot sales in Liverpool showed an
increase owing partly to buying for
, continental account. In a general way,
it is believed, the weather was Unfavor
able for the first week or 10 days after
1 the collection of data for the- govern
ments rep rt as of May 25, but that
since then conditions have improved and
that the crop has made rather better
■ progress.
Private mid-month condition reports
! are expected next week and in the
opinion of local brokers will probably
show very little change in crop pros
pects for the half month. A little more
’ active buying of cotton goods was re
■ ported early in the week owing to the
strength in raw cotton, but when the

mand for goods also tapered off and no
■ improvement has been reported in the
- domestic mill situation. On the whole,
the opinion has been more or leas free

Police Believe Man Committed Suicide.
High Point, June 0. —Finding a re
volver nbot 25 feet from the spot where
the body of Amas V. Kearns, 24 year
old young man of this city and Phila
delphia wan found last night near this
city, police today modified their theory
that the man was murdered. The Chief
of the Department expressed the opin
ion rhat Kearns committed suicide, al
though the coroner, a physician, last
night stated that his examination in
dicated that the death wound probably
was not self inflicted.
This report together with the fact
that the revolver was missing convinced
. the police that Kearns was murdered.
It was stated today that the young |

man's health had not been good and
, that his parents now believe with the
police that he killed hiself. Discovery
at his home today of his purse believed
to have been stolen from him person
strengthened the suicide theory.
