Officials of the United States treasury hare been ordered to kliow eanse why salaries of Washington school teachers should not be withheld because they are teaching scientific dne tricens "alegcil to reflect on the ltib'e.” In the District cf Columbia it is against the law to pay salaries to those teaching "disrespect for the Holy Bible,” And of course that's a wise law. An interesting question is raised. To cover the Hible exactly you must stop teaching geology, which not only teaches but proves that the earth is hundreds of millions of years old. Yon must stop teaching astronomy, which proves that this earth is not the centre of creation, with the sun and all the other great bodies whirling around it.

One was greatly disappointed when, a few days later, they compared notes. She had bought the same product; that many of her friends had owned. The other woman had secured a greatly improved, new product —costing less, but of much more value. ‘“lf I had only known there was a better one,” the first woman said, “I would never have bought this old one.” “1 had just read about it in a newspaper advertisement,” ex plained the wise buyer.

July 30.—Several hundred representative citizens from piedmont (North Carolina gathered in the iourt house here this afternoon to give ex- Iprexsion to their sympathies and hones in regard to the extension of the Pied mont and Northern interurbnn railroad. Senator Walter H. Woodson. *who has led the locnl forces in the matter. ac:ed as temporary chairman and called on Rev. Loy D. Thompson, pastor cf First Methodist church, who opened the meet ing with prayer. Mr. Woodson then ex pressed a warm welcome to the visitors I and called on ex-Governor Cameron Morrison. , Mr. Morrison exp'nined the purpose of the meeting and stated that contrary to the general impression he did not represent Mr. Duke ns attorney. He represented only the interest of the state—es#eciaHy this section. He did know Mr. Duke’s mind, however, and lie could state positively that Mr. Duke i thinks the road should be built and he would like to do it. Mr. Duke knows, very little is to be made by the road. If assured of liberal support the gov-1 ernor thought Mr. Duke would build the road—he does not want anybody to, give him anything. Sympathy ' and a share of patronage is what lie would ex I peet. Mr. Morrison ca’led attention to ( the fact that this electric road would connect the towns effected with the Sea booard. the Const Line and the Norfolk and Western anil these roads would never otherwise all come into the same town. Mr. Morrison then suggested that the chairman appoint a small committee to make a date with Mr. Duke for a meet ing that- would present the matter to him in detail. Later in the meeting it was voted that the chairman. Mr. Wood son. be named as a member of this com mittee. According to Mr. Morrison powerful I influences are being brought to bear to keep Mr. Duke from building the road but he thought if he was <tssurea of sympathy and a share of patronage no influence could keep him from building. On a call of hands it was found that Concord lutd 20 men present. Lexington 11 likf number. Winston-Salem 30 and Charlotte 15 or more. Many meal men and women were present. Mr. Morrison was unanimously named as permanent chairman of the organiza tion which was having its preliminary meeting at this time and Clnrence Kues ter wns nemed ns secretary. Mr. Morrison took the chair and ex pressed thanks for the honor and. promised to do everything he eould to bring to consummation the building of the road- Senator Overman addressed the audi ence In words of praise for both Mr Morrison and Mr. Duke for their great work in the interest of North Caro lina. M R. Dunagan. of the Charlotte Ob server. was present at the meeting and wo reproduce below parts of Ids report of tha meet ing : ; Amaag the distinguished attendants THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE were Senator Lee S. Overman, and Wal- j ter "I’ete" Murphy, the former resjtond ing to a call with a eulogy of James B. Duke ns one of the most astute and patriotic builders of (tie state and one to Governor Morrison as a man who served the state ably and admirably as (tiief executive and is now giving it un selfish and valuable service. , Senator Woodson welcomed the visi tors. lauding Mr. Duke as a man of vi sion with a brain and power sufficient to ! translate his dreams into realities. I | Morrison Explains. Former Governor Morrison, presented I by Senator Woodson as the inspiration! of the movement, explained the pnr|K>se! of the gathering, stating in the outset! that he was not in any sense a repre sentative of Mr. Duke, but that he is interested in thi* section of the state and does have some idea of Mr. Duke's thoughts regarding the promised develop- ' ment. I Mr. [ l)uke thinks the line should be j bpilt. Mr. Morrison said, adding that he I knows it will bring little real profit on , (the investment. He dees want the as surance of the people along tile line of liberal support if the road is built, the I.speaker said. He recalled the line j would, in a sense, connect several large .lines, the Seaboard. Atlantic Coast Line ' and Norfolk and Western, the latter be- 1 ing a subsidiary of the Pennsylvania road. All of these roads will not enter ' all of tile towns, but the next best thing ! is the connection the extended I*. & X. would offer. Mr. Morrison said. Pressure Against It. ill'. Morrison suggested a small com- j mittee. say of five men, to get iu touch with Mr. Duke with reference to a time ' and place at which he would see the - delegations from the towns and cities in terested; also suggesting that these dele- I gationg bring what resolutions have been passed and get others to take similar action, presenting it all to Mr. Duke at the time of the meeting witli iijm. Influences are being brought to bear on Mr. Duke to prevent him from build ing this link. Governor Morrison said, expressing the belief that Such pressure will have no effect if the people of. the communities along the proposed route assure him of their interest and liberal support of the road. Tributes to Duke Senator Overman, presented by Mr. Morrison, spoke of tile unusual aspect of Mr. Duke's contemplated plan, re minding that railroads. .Usually asked cities, counties and townships to issue bonds to build the roads, then confer favors on the seefions through whidh they operate by running them on money supplied by the communities. Mr. Duke is asking nothing but approval and prom ise of liberal support, be said. Governor Morrison added his tribute to Mr. Duke as the greatest constructive genius ever bot-p on, North Carolina ooij. Model Rural Community. The Banker-Farmer. A model rural community— Will have good roads, Will be patriotic. Will be .prosperous. Will be sanitary. "Wi’l be ambitious, Will be otto iterative. Will have good schools, Will be law-abiding, Will be God-fearing. A community with those character l istics docs not merely happen. It be comes so only ns a direct result of well planned thinking and doing of men and women. who have vision, personality, a tactful judgment, and the nbility to do common things in an uncommon way. It is safe to say that a community will be just as strong and progressive as its citizenship.

LIVED ON MILK AND CRACKERS FOR MONTHS Stomach Was in Such Bad Condition She Could Not Eat Any SoHd Food.— HERB JUICE Gave Relief. “I had suffered so much from nervous indigestion that 1 had reached the point where I was afraid to eat any solid food. I was forced to diet myself and I lived on milk and crackers for months. When as n last resort I began using . HERB JUICE which was recommended to me at Gibson’s Drug Store by the HERB JUICE man for stomach trouble. Now I am thankful for having heard about this wonderful medicine and I will always be ready at any time to speak a good word for it to anyone." said Mrs. J. T. : Love. of 382 North Church Street, Con | cord, N. C..- in a recent interview with | the HERB JUICE man. She further Ve | marked: “It was no simple case of indi- I gestion from which I suffered. I could | not eat anything and have! it afree with I me. My stomach was completely upset |all the time. I wns also very constipated and no laxative I took seemed to regu late me. I grew weaker every day and | could scarcely do more than just drag ■ myself about to do my housework. No | : rest, no food digested, nerves on edge and | I const : pntion had mined my health. But I j HERB JUICE changed my condition en- 1 | tirely in n short time, and to say that it 1 I has ‘righted every wrong’ would only i I make a long story short. Toil ay I could I , not fed better if I had never had a day's sickness in my life. It took some time for me to realize that I could sit down to I the table and eat a meal, selecting what ever I chose, and feel perfectly sure that' (I would have no terrific pa'ns from indi-i gestion immed : ately after I left the ta ble, or If not then, to awake in the night to suffer for hours, gasping for breatli on account of suffocating pains as I had done formerly. I have been entirely re lieved of all these conditions and now feel as well as when I was young. There is . absolutely no doubt in my mind that ; there is not another medicine obtainable today that can equal HERR JUICE for I stomach trouble, indigestion and consti pation.” HBRB JUICE h guaranteed to give satisfaction or money rirfufted by Gib- I •on Drag o*. I | THE COMMONER. Philadelphia Record. If William Jennings Bryan had pos sessed n mental breadth and a soundness of judgment in keeping with his moral earnestness, his sincerity, his charm as the most gifted orator #f h:s day. his industry and his lovableness as a man there can be no question that lie would have achieved far higher honors than came to him. Such a combination of gifts would easily have placed the presi dency within his reach without the tre l mendous exertions which he trice made in vain to attain it. It may be said I that no man is blessed with such super | abundance of solid and attractive quali ties as those enumerated above, and probably this is true. It was the trag edy of Mr. Bryan's career that his men | tal deficiencies and apparent lack of ; balance more than counferbalauced his many good points, and that the American people grasped this fact from his first dazzling appearance in the campaign of IRfMI. Never has there been a more en gaging aspirant for the presidency, and never has a candidate for that high honor had so many defeats thrust upon him. These mental defects were brought out strikingly in the recent Scopes case at Dayton. As the self-appointed repre sentative of a literal and uncompromis ing religious orthodoxy, the Commoner revealed himself as a man who. in his devotion to a few causes, had remained i almost oblivious to the great intellectual movements of his time. His confessions of ignorance on many points of knowl edge that are almost a commonplace to the ordinary man indicated a narrowness of interests and lack of vision that came a- a great surprise to many and 'helped to exp tin his past failures. Apparently he attained his full mental growth many years ago and cared little for anything SMART BUYERS COME HERE! We’re not getting all the tire business in town. We never expect to. But we're getting our share and our business is growing constantly. The reason for this is that car owners have found our location is convenient, our service prompt, efficient and courteous, our merchan dise of the highest quality, and our prices surprisingly low. As a matter of fact, and we realize it sounds pretty strong, if every car owner in town who is not buying from us, really knew what we had to offer, we’d come pretty close to having a monopoly on the tire business here. We honestly believe this, because w’re already selling to scores of the brainiest tire buyers in town—smart people who look twice and think three times before they buy anything. If we can satisfy them and keep on doing it—we can please you, too. Yorke & Wadsworth Co.

As sec retary of state ir. the IVilson cabinet he h i . a wonderful opportunity to make a ■ greet record as a constructive statesman i in one of the greatest crisis in the world’s history, but he proved utterly i until' c to live no to the rrryonstbrliiiea i of lOp pout, Mr. Bryan was nor a thinker or a stu t dent, but fie had what some of our re , cent political philosophers describe as "the frontier mind": he had extraordi nary .‘kill in expressing its feelings, and lie shared its likes and dislikes and sus- I pielons. For 20 years millions of Ameri cans have regarded him as the one elo quent and unfailing champion of the I common people, the people who felt thnt I heir progress toward comfort and com petence was retarded by a fortunate f minority who were exploiting the rest. . T'.iree defeats for the presidency so little i affected his hold upon the large relement in the Democratic party that he was . able ill the convention of 11)12 to do an unprecedented thing; he prevented Champ ' Clark, who for many ballots held a rna jority, from securing a two-thirds vote, 1 and so he made Woodrow Wilson I’resi j dent. j I For almost thirty years Mr. Bryan I p’ided 'limself upon being the champion of the common people, and by a great I part of tlie jieople he was so regarded with an enthusiasm verging on worship. He named the paper he started “The i Commoner." He believed in himself as the spokesman for humanity, and the later issues which he espoused he felt to be the causes of the multitude against a class. He had an instinct for a popu lar cause, because he was one of the people, in a collective sdnse. himself. And he put in eloquent and stirring words the sentiments of the "man in the street:" or rather, of the "man in the field," who regards with a good deal PAGE THREE i.. -■ 11 ..t' "-jr ■; ■ -a -of suspicion the man who ha* more - money than he has, or more knowledge. i • TODAY’S EVENTS ; Friday.
