Smith, city engineer, i* dis satisfied with the action taken by the r City Judge Morrison Caldwell, in regard p to closing the Liberty Lunch which failed |to come up to specified cleanliness in a ■ 1 recent inspection and. according to Mr. r Smith, “is a public nuisance as every ■ one know*.” , | The ill feeling came when, instead of ■closing the Inndt room at once, as Mr. 'Smith requested. Mr. Caldwell gave the ■ owners ninety days in which to run. ■ Mr. Smith and a State inspector, in i making the rounds of the cases recent t ly. gave the Liberty Lunch the once ; over. Not haring as many as twelve j chairs, the State inspector was unable Ito do anything about it. Mr. Smith. . | however, not satisfied that it should con tinue to run in its alleged filthy eondi lUion, called on Mr. Caldwell to examine it with him and then to dose it. The two went over it thoroughly, us ing as a basis of comparison, the score . card which had been used in inspecting the ofher~eatiitg places of the city. Af ter addiug up the grades, it was found that the place had a score of 46 per 'cent. Passing grade for cases where the State can take a hand is 70. i After some hesitation, Mr. Caldwell decided that he would allow the lunch Ito continue dispensing eats for uinety ■days and at the end of that time, was it |! not improved, it could be closed. (j This fact has caused Mr. Smith’s ire to be roused. He maintains that if II be has not the co-operation of city of- 1 I i ficials in the matter of cleanliness, he 1j canAiot keep Concord in the spotless con- ’ [ dition he would have it. And the case, i as he pictures it. is in wretched shape. 1 Said Mr. Smith in speaking of the | matter todayT “I am well pleased with i j most of my work’as city engineer thus : far. My clean-up week has been a great i success; 1 have taken up over twice as, much trash $s any previous administra- j tion was able to do. Os course the rea son for this was that 1 advertised ami | also received ghod spare in the papers. I Other projects I hav3 planned have also; i received _liearty co-operation from the people.’’ "In the matter of the case, however. f | I have been sorely disappointed. It is : something that needs immediate atten i tion and relief should he granted from i this nuisance Before ninety days.” | ; BIRTHS EXCEEDED DEATHS BY BIG MARGIN IN CONCORD, x i : More Than Two Births For Each Dentil During First Six Months of Year In j This City. • Statistic- just compiled by W. M. i Sherrill, registrar of vital statistics for | Concord, show that during the first six f months of 1025 births far exceeded | deaths in this city. Figures, made pub- I) lie by Mr. Sherrill were secured from 1 monthly reports submitted to him by j physicians of the city. {; According to the reports submitted to I Mr. Sherrill by the physicians there were ! 174 births in Concord during the first j’six months of the year against 76 deaths. |ja rate of increase that is said to be in : | keeping with other cities in the state. ! i ’in making public the reports Mr. Sher . | rill pointed out that the figures are not ■ | complete as several physicians of the (Jcity have not submitted birth reports for i j May and June. ’’How-ever,’’ says the j I report of the registrar, “the number of f deaths is given in full, by reason of the fact that death certificates must be signed by attending physicians so burial permit* can be issued, autj undertakers send in their reports promptly each month.” During the first six months of the year 185 births were reported to Mr. Sherrill, but some of them were for chil dren born during the latter part of 1024 hut net reported until this year. Twenty-one births were reported in the city during July, according to the July report of the registrar, and during the month fourteen deaths were reported. July reports to Mr. Sherrill named forty new babes, but nineteen of them were I born previous to July but had not been j reported. (If the forty babes reported in July : twenty-one were«fedys and nineteen girls. Seven of them were colored. Os the fourteen deaths in July three were colored, five were females and six were children under three years of age. Infant Buried in Oakwood Tuesday Af ternoon.

THB CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE THE RUNAWAY GIRL IS AT HOME AGAIN » > Miss Ruth Murrie Says There Was N# * Real Reason for Leaving. 1 Burlington, Aug. 3.—Ruth Murrie, sis -1 teen-.vear-old girl runaway, is buck at • the home of her father, Ira Murrie. Burlington, Route 4—glad tfiat her - wanderlust is at its end. ‘ She wag accompanied from Konxville, 1 Tenn.. by Joe Fogleman. and a sister, I who left here the morning following her 1 arrest, with two compaions. J. E. Olay ■ ton. of Concord, and 1.. H. Lyerly, of Charlotte. According to Police Chief R. D. Rain.] who talked to her last night, she could] five ui) Aason for leaving home. Shej ad departed in hear father’s roadster, in! Which she had driven to Burlington to have some work done. “I had no idea of running away that afternoon when I came to town,” Rhe 1 told the police chief, "but later on I got to thinking about it and drove away, going to Salisbury She said she had no definite itinerary when she left. The last report of the girl before a wire came from the Knoxville chief of police, telling of her arrest, was that she had been seen- hi Salisbury and Char lotte, and that she had no funds. She drove with the young men who had joined hej via Spartanburg to Aoheyille and Knoxville. Clayton and Lyerly played the luckiest hand in their lives this morning when they. walked out of the Knoxville jail, freed by a wire from imlice here on evi dence given by the girt, It is thought she took full responsibility for them leav ing the State with her. claiming that it was she who took them instead of them taking her. However, it is said the circumstances of the girl’s leave may yet develop sorne , thing sensational from this point, al though Chief Bain would give out no in formation other than that lie was in vestigating some statements of the girl made to him which may lead to an ar rest. HERMAN HOLSIIOI’SER NOT YET SIGNED WITH GIANTS lie May Return to Carolina Next Year. I —Johnson May Have to Quit I’nlver | ally and Go to Work. ! Herman Holshouser, University of North Carolina pitcher, and, during this I summer, star Hinder for the fast Kannap olis amateur team, has not signed with the New York Giants as has been re ported on numerous occasions in the state : papers. | "I have talked to MeGvaw." said the i big boy. ■ "and have carried on a great I deal of correspondence but. we have not 1 been able to get together so I haven't ■ signed any Contract." This was an ! answer to .n question about the truth of 1 1 reports current for some time. i Further questioning revealed the fact I that he was undecided wether or not ' he would go to the Giants if they came to his terms or whether he would eon- I tintte his college career at the Univer sity and i hen report for big league duty. "It all tlepeiijje/’Mae said with a eriptic smile. ’ W ’T)rf » Johnson, anofljer Carolina star, cap i lain of next year’s team, lias been do ing some fancy work with the Kannai>o li« outfit in his place at short stop. He is leading home run hitter of a club which boasts of such sluggers ns Fink. Lee. Hodge. Wood and McLean. His hall has been one of the brightest spots id the scintillating of the Kannapolis nine. Johnson is undecided about returning to Carolina, he says. His mother is de ' pendent on him and she has been in very poor health for some time. Owing to her invalid condition, it is possible that he may have to cut his college work short. He is playing baseball this summer because a pays more money thaq any other work. If it is possible to ar range it. be will return to Carolina in the fall, a thing which he is very anxious to do. Johnson is not only a baseball star but in addition he is one of the fastest men on the basketball floor at Carolina. ■ which is saying, a lot. He was first substitute two yiars ago on the South ern championship team. Imst year he was forced to Ifave school on account of illness. It is probable, that Holshouser. who has been bearing the brunt of the hurl ing foe the Kannapolis team, will pitch Thursday in tlie*game with Gibson Mill at Concord and Iwill be held over until Saturday for tl& game iu Kannapolis, He pitched two straight games last week and went better, in the, second than in the first so lie paay be called upon to hurl both of the contests. Unless Gib-oii' batters Improve or he gets much womb, .he . ' ;ht easily go through with all three games and still have them guesting. He is certainly arsenic to the local kitfers. “LET WOMEN ; ALONE,” NEW UOMEDY-DRAMA Fine Cast Interprets Viola Brothers Shore’s “Post” Story. “On the Shelf.” "I/et \Y omen the picture atl the Concord Theatre, is an adaptation by Woods of Viola Brothers Shore's Satur day Evening l'oft story, "On the Shelf,” and revolves about an elderly woman and her son. an insurance salesman.
