them. Speaking of the dyspepsia which,

Hr. Dennis says
Sol Smith Russell, the comedian, was,
not only a close friend but a felllow dys
peptic. and Field used to tell with huge
glee a story to the effect that one mid
night, after giving a performance in an,
eastern city, Russell went into a restau
rant to get something to eat. While he
jjjprtook sparingly of bread and milk he
saw an old friend of the name of Par
sons attacking with gusto a plateful of
corned beef and cabbage.
“Merciful heavens. Parsons!” cried
Bussell. “How dare you fill yourself
with such victuals at this time of night?"
“Oh. I can stand it," replied Parsons
happily.
"But, my dear fellow." expostulated
fussell, “do you know how Iqng it takes
rued beef and cabbage to digest?"
“No, I haven't the remotest idea,’’
skid Parsons.
■ “Weft? J happen to know." said Rus
sell; “it takes five hours—five solid
hours.’’ • ’
“Oh, that’s all right," said Parsons.
■‘l’ve got just about that much time
to devote to it.”

| A traveling man went into a railway

the profusion of pies and cakes on the

'solid to eat?” he asked,
j "Shall I give you some beans?” asked
' the proprietor, with his most persuasive

“Twenty-five cents.” was the bland re

“What!” cried the drummer: “twenty

The proprietor continued firm in his

“an invariable practice to adv'se people
to sleep witli their bedroom windows open

“Ila. ha!" laughed the other; “I per

“Not at all!” was the confidential re

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS IN
SESSION HERE MONDAY
Heard Delegation From Mt. Pleasant
Relative to Coat of Highway There.—
Jury Chosen. I
Commissioners of Cabarrus county met'
at the .court house here Monday in regu
lar July session, most of their time
being devoted to routine matters. How
ever, during the afternoon they received
a delegation from Alt. Pleasant which
gave that town’s side of the question of
Mt. Pleasant's apportionment of the new
Concord-Mt. Pleasant highway. j
Some confusion has existed for several
weeks as to the amount of the eost of
the road Mt. Pleasant will pay and the
delegation which appeared before the
board was willing to reach a compro
mise, it was understood. The matter
was not definitely closed at the meeting
and further conferences probably will
be held in the near future. j
The board ,was advised that public
watering places for livestock are badly
needed in Concord, so it authorized that
SIOO be spent for such watering places.
The city is to install the equipment and
furnish the water, according to the de
cision of the board, the county only to
furnish the equipment.
Jurors for the next term of Cabarrus
Superior Court were darwn by the com
missioners. |

sicians of the city to IV. M. Sherrill,
registrar of vital statistics for Concord,

Sherrill states, as several physicians of
the city did not send in their reports. \
The complete death report shows thir
teen deaths during the month, an in
crease of six over May.
Seventeen births were reported, eight
of them being for months preceding June.

Rare Treat la Ih Store For Picture
Lovers. 1
Superior photography is promised,
among other alluring features, in Vita
graph's "Pampered Yodth.” the pioiuri
zation of Booth Tarkington’s great novel, 1
"The Magnificent Ambersons." which
comes to the Concord Theatre ttKjay. j
The assurance is made doubly certain
when it is said that the men who had |
charge of the photography for this pic-1
lure are the ones who wielded the cam- •
eras in “Captain Blood.” the super-spe-.
rial which was the werk of the saute pro- 1
dueer. David Smith.
The photography of “Captain Blood" |
was everywhere recognized aq of the
highest possible order. Some critics
went so far as to say that in that great I
photoplay the pictorial side had no equal I
in auy other of present film successes.
It was because of that voice of approval,
unanimously lifted, that Mr. Smith de
termined to re-engage his photographic
artists.
"Pampered Youth” deals with a fain-]
ily living in a small interior city, who
take great pride in the display of their
wealth. The Anbersdns spent small
fortunes on their buildings, both inside
and out. and "Went in" for magnificence
rather than taste and harmony. With
all their splendor the sets in the pic
ture are sometimes beautiful, and the
clear mind, deft hand and artistic judg
ment of expert cameramen were required
to translate all their beauty to the
screen.

EXPENDITURES FOR EDUCATION
Kdwwtioo of Os Cm*. Twfee
aa Mark as that of Rural CUHNa.
(By the a—« Male« Presst
Raleigh, N. C., July 4. —Although
there are about six times as many chil
dren enrolled in the rural schools of
North Carolina as there are in the 24
largest cities, expenditures for the edu
cation of these country children was
only three times as much aa was spent
for the education of city children, De
partment of Public Instruction figures
show. There were 602,441 children in
the rural schools last year and 104,838
in those of the 24 Urgent cities. There
was spent for all educational purposes
during the year 1923-24 a total of $28,-
747.076. Os this amount more than ten
and a half million dollars was spent for
capital outlay, that Is, for new build
ings. equipment and repairs. The re
maining nineteen million dollars was
si>ent for 'the actual instruction of the
clrldren of the State.
The comparison of the educational ex
penditure* shows a greater contrast as it
relates to per capita Cost of instruction.
The 24 largest cities spent $41.04 per
child instructed. The 15 smaller cities
spent $34.32 |>ef child instructed, and
the State average was $84.06. The rural
child had only $20.10 spent on his in
duction during that year.
It was pointed out by school authori
ties that the average per capita cost in
the United States for the year 1920 was
$04.15. over twice as much as North
Carolina spent last year. The figures
for lf*24 for the nation are not yet avail
able, btk there has been a material In
crease in the average for the uation.
Figures compiled hy the State Superin
tendent of Public Instruction show that
in the county school sfateifa New Hanover
county stands first ih the ntnmirtt for
the education of each child. The figures
ranged from S4SUt, the amount spent
per child by New Hanover, to $lB.lO
per child, which Scotland county spent.
New Hanover spent more for the educa
tion of Its rural children thiin it did tot
the education of the children of the city
(of Wilmington. This is the only county
in the State where the expenditure for
jirnvidihg educational faculties for the
country children was greater than that
spent for the education of the children in
city schools in a county.
Two important elements enter into the
difference between expenditures for city
and country fhildren. The first is the
difference iii th length of the school term.
The larger cities run rtie'r schools for
nine months arid even tlie smaller cities
j run for eight months dr (fibre. The aver-
I age length Os terai in it county docs not
run more than six and a half or seven
months.
The othir factor which makes this dif
ference will be found in the training re
quired for city teacher’s.
Winston-Salem last .veat spent sl.-
152.481 for 11,016 enrolled children, or
h per capita of $194,02 for each clbld.
This is the largest amount any city sys
tem spent (luring the year. Os this
amount, howevyr. mote than $000,009 was
for capital outlay. In the matter of
cost of actual instruction. Roanoke Its ir
itis led the State, with $02.42 per capita
ou the actual teaching, of children.
Greensboro is second, with $58.13: Dur
ham third, with $53.28, and Fayetteville
is at the bottom of sh? 24 larger city
systems, with an expenditure of $30.09
per child for instruction.
Public ownership of telephone seems to
lie on the wane in .Europe. Recently
the Spanish and Italian governments
have reded their resyective state tele
phone systems to private enterprise, fol
-1 lowing the' example of Greeo which took
sililar action some time ago. The Pol
ish government has also transferrerd its
telephone exchanges.in a number of cities
to a company in which the state is only
a minority stockholder. In Norway,
Sweden ami Denmark, where the tele
phone has beeu developed to a greater ex
tent than anywhere else in Europe, the
systems are either operated by. or have
been largely developed under, private en
terprise.
