A\ig- 4.—Despite severely hot. dry weather, prospects are good for a first class field crops display at the Gaston county, fair, to be held in Oc tober, it was announced here today by 1 Fred M. Allen, executive secretary. ’The small grain exhibits,” said Mr. I! Allen, “will surpass all previous dis 1' plays of the kind. The local wheat crop 1 was untisuaHyuTgood in many sections of • I Gaston countj this season, even though : j lack of sufficient rain in April and May I retarded it somewhat. I “Splendid exhibits in wheat, rye and , oats already have been brought in and , stored from numerous farms over this ■ 1 section, in sufficient quantities to insure , (the largest show yet for this depart ! * inent. II “A new grain for Gaston county not , I previously entered at the fair will be . barley. Five sheaves of this, raised in Cherryville township, hnve already been entered by one grower. 1 “Owing to depredations of rats, spar- I rows, and other pests, it is all but im ' possible for a fanner to keep a sheaf •of grain intact until fair time. FoF 1 this reason, such exhibits are being 1 stored. A spatially arranged place where ’ they will be safe from pests is being ’ used. t Sofelcigh : “Say, is the bull safe?” Farmer: “Well, he’s a whole lot safer f than you are.” r -=■'— .... . ,I.—" ",***'w-c .a. 1 ■ Charles Satchall Morris to Speak Tuesday i Night. .

INSTALJLEb AT THE SQL'ARB Modern Mechanism BUrHiMm l w of . I Policeman and Tower.—To Begin Op- 1 j eralien at Oner. New stop ami go signals will be put i into operation at the square xome time 1 trda.T, probably in the early afternoon. ( The apparatus, wax purchased several i monthx ago by the city fathers from J. ] K. MacUartliy, of Uuleigh. who manu- i faeturee and sells signals of the %’nd I procured here. Mr. McCarthy was in ! Concord today installing the affair wbirfi | is said to be one of the most modern I and efficient of its kind. The signals are operated automatical- i lv. The mechanism used in running it 1 is fastened to a post nearby, the place j where the present tower is stationed, i All the controls are neatly packed in a 1 tin box which would hardly be notice- ( able on the poet. i In the center of the street the new 1 tower is being placed. It is comprised , of three decks on wliich are. reading from i top down, the words "safety first.” “go” J , and “stop.” The signal which is un-.i | der operation will be lighted. Shades i ; over each of the words make it possible j I to read them in the daytime. Three buttons control the system from 1 j the box. One makes it possible to put ' it and leave it at flic “safety first” sign, i , The other enable the signal to be placed 1 at either "stop" or “go" as.long as de- ( | sired, ax in the case of a fire or a i j flitteral. The third put it on the auto- 1 mafic. t Present timing gives the stop and go i signals each a thirty second duration.. j A bell rings four seconds prior td each .change. I j The advantages of the new signnl are many. It is more modern and more es- I ficient than the old methisl and in addi- ] tion will eliminate the working of a < policeman for operation. Also, the un- l sightly tower which has blocked the side-, j walk at this point may now be torn . down. NO CUT IN POWER PRICE ! IN CONCORD LIKELY NOW j Reduction in Price of Electricity for the [ Public Utilities Will Not Effect Local i Plant. Announcement that the Souther Power , Company had reduced the rates at which the Southern Public Utilities Company was to receive electric current for light and power has brought an accompanying speculation in regard to the possibility of the rates for the City of Concord be ing lowered. No message has been received by the local municipal light anil water company, according to L. A. Fisher, superintend ent. In the light of the fact that the announcement has already been made' re garding the cur for the Southern Public Utilities, Mr. Fisher declared this morn ing that he thought it extremely improb able that there' would be a reduction in price here. A fact that made it ill the more un likely, he said, was that the Southern Utilities is a subsidiary company of the . Southern Power Company and the reduc-' tion would tend to increase the use of j power in cities where Hits company re tails electricity. There has been a great deal of specula tion in th?'city as to the reason for the reduction since it is known that water is low in the Catawba Itiver and other streams serving the Southern Power Company and it has been necessary to run the steam plants, which are much more expensive, at capacity rate. The cities served by the Southern Pub lic Utilities which will receive the benefit from thf reduction are Charlotte, Wins ton-Salem.' and several smaller places. SECOND CLASS IN DRESS DESIGNING TO MEET FRIDAY Miss Martha Creighton, of Charlotte, to Come Over to Give Instruction For Contest. Miss Martha Creighton, district home demonstration ageut, will be in Concord Friday for the purpose of giving the sec ond lesson in dress designing to the wom en of Cabarrus county who are planning to enter the dress designing contest at the Made-in-Carolinas Exposition. The contest is open to all the women of the two Carolinas and prizes in ex cess of SI,OOO have been offered for the best costumes made for this exhibit. It, is attrachting wide interest, both be cause of the fact that the prizes are so large an dbecause of the fact that the women are interested in a project of this hind. On her first visit to Concord in the interest of the cotest, Miss Creighton ’ had a total of eighteen women in her ; class. It is probable, according to Miss ' Mattie Lee Cooley, local home demon : stration agent, thnt the number will be augmented in the meeting Friday since it is possible for women who did not attend the first class to be present at 1 the one Friday. “Even if we don’t win any prizes.” feaid Miss Cooley in referring to the con tent, ‘ “it will be might good experience to the women in the county and will t>e a great help to them in the future in their dressmaking. Os course I be ' lieve that Cabarrus county will take off , a number of the prizes.” Mother and Children in Pitiable Condi tion. ! Reidsville, Aug. 3.—Passing automo billsta came upon a pitiful scene a mile north of town Friday. A negro woman and five small children were observed on (he side of the road, and the mother ap . patently was barely alive. A local phjr -1 gician was summoned and to bim the r woman was ably to saj that she and her children were walking to “Ninety- Six,” a construction camp somewhere down south, to join her husband. Some . of the citizens supplied the family with food, clothes and money, and the wander era renewed their journey Saturday. i Mootoooboooboooooooooooooi i 8 8 X Does Your Razor Pol or Does U 9 Cot Hair j . 8 The Ingersffll Dollar Rasor blade O 8 Btropper gives you 300 shaves from 8 .
