E. Buchanan, I ' Smallpox in tbe county is almost ap ■ preaching an epidemic. On last Fri ‘ day three cases of this disease were re- 1 ■ ported and during the week-end another' ■ case developed. The cases were caused by the perigri • nations of a family who shortly before ■ Christmas spent several nights in a house j at one of the mills, the house having I just been vacated by a man who had been-ill with smallpox. After leaving this home, the erraut family visited rela i tives at the Locke Mill and in a short while after, three of the younger chil dren were sent to the county home. A case‘of smallpox soon developed in the home visited at the Locke Mill and later a case was discovered at the eoun . ty home. The latest case reported was at the county home and more were to be expected, said Dr. Buchanan, since it was impossible to vaccinate all the in mates. The three children who carried the disease to the county home have since been placed in the orphanage at Barium « Springs. Dr. Buchanan called the head of the Orphanage Saturday and informed him that the children were carrying smallpox. Officials at the orphanage stated that they were not worried be cause of the fact that the entire number had been vaccinated only a week before. Not only are there a number of cases of smallpox, but chickenpox and mumps are rampant. No figures were avail able since the two latter are not report able diseasses. Smallpox, though report ed to Dr. Buchanan, requires no quaran tine. Health officials find that it is preventable if opportunity is taken of vaccination and as this is given free, there is no need of any person failing to be insured himself against taking the disease.

Ritchie, cu.mman of the Cham ber of .Commerce committee, appointed to ■ arranged a Trade Day for Concord, has called a meeting of his committee for tonight at the Y. M. C. A. at 7:30 o'clock, and in issuing the call Mr. Rit chie extends an invitation to all busi ness men of the city who are interested in the proposition. At the meeting it was planned to ap point a number of committees wbieh will have direct supervision over - plans for the trade event. For that reason i.t is luqied that many business men of tlie city will be present at tbe meeting. The Chamber of Commerce decided sev eral days ago that the time was ripe for a big trade event here and the com mittee of which Mr. Ritchie is chair man. was apiwinted to make preliminary arrangements for the event. Mi - . Rit chie's committee hopes to complete part of its work at the meeting tonight. . As the trade event will be a city wide event, ail merchants of the city arc* asked to co-operate. And those who expect to co-operate ore especially urged to attend the meeting tonight so the plans can be made according to suggestions from those present. Auto Crash at the Square. An accident causing much excitement among the bystanders on the square but little damage to the parties involved, c eurred Saturday afternoon when a Cad illac driven by A. W. oT“riee. of Winston- Salem, hit a Ford square amidships, denting in its side and in doing so mak ing a raetuous noise. The Ford was driven by Fred Hendrick, who is fore man of the workmen building the new home of Charles Cannon, on North Union Street. Price, who was coining up Depot Street, snid that lie had noted the sign on “go” from a distance and failed to look at it when he came close. After he looked, the sign was changed and Hendrick proceeded to scurry across the square. The crash occurred and with- I in a few moments, several hundred per j sons were gathered round to take note | of the proceedings. I Both cars were driven to the Cnbar | rus Motor Company where the extent of | the damages to Hendrick's car was as | pertained. lb-ice's car was uninjured. ■ j No legal action is expected to be taken I (.since an adjustment satisfactory to pill | parties was made. | (Error in Regard to Walter Lefler C«r --| reefed. [ . Due to an error, made in copying the | names of witnesses from the clerk of I court's books, tbe story carried in Thurs ! day's editions of The Times and The l Tribune concerning the case of George I Earnhardt had an inaccuracy. It was [ .stated that one of the witnesses in the, 1 case, Walter Lefler, was evicted from I the court room with the other witnessts. ! On the clerk’s books. Letter's name has I a mark drawn through it where it is stated that Sarah and Daisy Earnhardt and Ines Sutton were disallowed the us ual fees for witnesses. Letter was not sent from the witness stand as were the three whose names were just given. We are glad to make this correction in jus 1, tice to Mr. Lefler.

Concord High Team Gets Victory in Hard j Fought Cage Game. j I After leading during the greater part of 1 the first half, the Salisbury Y team was | completely swamped by the sudden spurt e , of the local V quint at the High School | Saturday night and, although the visit- 1 j ing lads tried hard to retrieve their lost ] lead, they were unsuccessful, the final J 1 score being 86-28. j The game at the beginning looked like : a Salisbury walkaway. Starting with a j rush, they scored handily several times • and made six points during the first ten ! minutes of play while the locals were : making • exactly nothing. So close was « tlie guarding of the Salisbury team that j Concord seemed not to have the remotest : chance. ; However, early in the second quarter, 1 Ed. Morrison managed to get loose for a S long shot which he caged accurately and S immediately afterward made another ; when he received a pass from Dick as ; he was running under Hie goal. During 7 tlie remainder of the half, the game was J nij) and tuck. At the close of tlie period s it stood 12-12 with no one leading. ■ The rest between halves seemed to do Z Jhe Concord boys a world of good. In £ the first few minutes of play they rung 1 up four baskets in rapid succession. ! showing better form than had been ex- Z hibited for many a moon. They were a £ trifle too much inclined to rest on their ; laurels from this time on with the net ! result that when Salisbury called time: £ out one minute and thirty sneonds before the eud of the game, the score was 30-26. In the last minute of play. Dunham who Z was the shining light of tbe Salisbury five, made a remarkable shot aw he was falling to t».e floor which brought the score up to its final count. 30-28, £ In addition to Dunham's very good;; playing. Brown for the visitors, made some remarkable shots of the miracle va riety tieing Dunham, who by the way, was a former all-state Oklahoma man £ and Chicago Y star, for first place in ■ scoring honors for Salisbury. : The Concord team still failed to play | consistently, making brilliant flashes at j times and again lobking like a bunch of l grammar school boys playing their first ! , game. : The team scores were as follows: : Concord Salisbury l !

County, , 1 Tlie week-end jqet passed was one Os i the wettest in the Jmjdory of Concord. 1 From early Saturday morning until this : morning there, was not ;*h hour in which ■ rain was not falling*?' And it was real rain. There were j few light showers during which it was possible to move abujul without getting j ■ a drenching. At times Saturday night j ! and yesterday the downpours almost ] reached the -proportions of a cloudburst. ■ A 6l a result of 1.h9 rains creeks and i rivers throughout tha county' are snrg- i iug from their beaten’ i»atbs. Lowlands j are covered with water and., in some in- j stances bridges were inundated by the i wselling waters. In Concord Ihe greatest damage was 1 done to homes, basements of which were i flooded. No less than a dozen home { owners yesterday reported water in their j 1 basements and in niost instances there 1 Vere no drain pipes to care for the • ! water. That meant! the water had to j be bailed out, a tiresome and extensive ! job. In several instances it was re- J ported that furnaces had been slightly ■ damaged by the water. : Roads in the county were badly dam- | 1 aged by the heavy mins, it is reported j ' here today, the downpours eausing dam* ! | age that will mean the loss of thousands j | of dollars to the county. • School Exhibition to Be MaAe at Next' j County Fair, ' A committee from both tlie city and j rural schools met in |he court house on j ; last Saturday and drafted a premium ‘ f list for a school exhibition to be made ' -at tip- county fair next wall.
