An*. 13.—The second half of the Twilight League race has simmered down to a battle between the Cabarrus and Bleachery cltjbs. On Friday afternoon at 6 o'clock these: teams will mix it on the Cabarrus diamond. Should the Bleachers, who have heretofore captured the cham pionship consistently, down the Cabs, they will stand a good chance to an nex fae second series honors. But the Bleachery crew fail to win decid ing games. Once before they were afforded the opportunity to cop the last half honors by playing the cel lar -team and were overwhelmingly defeated. Both clubs are doing their stiffest training preparatory to this supreme test. A lot of interest in the game will be centered in the work of Bub Sullivan, pitcher leftfielder of the Cabhr ivlio wiWdS? the mound for CabaijriC!.

Charlotte, Aug. 12.—The recent order of the state corporation eom missioin, effective yesterday, under which two of the bus lines onerating between Greensboro and Charlotte were ordered off the road will be strenuous’y resisted, according to John W. Hester, of Oxford, attorney for the North Carolina Bus Owners association, who says that, the older companies were treated unfairly by the •commission- Mr. Hester, in a formal statement, said that the bus owners association would continue to press the ease be fore the commission until a more equitable solution of the problem is reached. In the commission’s order of last Saturday the Dixie lines, one of the last to- enter the Greensboro-Clinr lotte field, was said to have been given the second best choice. At. a meeting here last night of the State Rus Owners association, a grievance committee was named with S. R. Ellis, of Charlotte, chairman, ahd the following members. L. A. Love, Charlotte: R. O. Walters. Con eord, and Joel W. Wright, Gastonia. Turks in Constantinople are wear ing straw liats instead of the peaked fez.

Aug. 12.—1 n a statement issued here, George Ross Pou, super l intendent of the State's prison, said i that he had made an error in issuing . a statement to the Associated Press , last Thursday in which it was said ■ that during his administration "pris • oners have been given coffee, sugar , and smoking tobacco, which they did r have in any previous administra . tion.” In his statement jHst is sued, Mr. Pou admitted that coffee lmd been furnished prisoners under [ superintendents who preceded him and . said he made the correction “desiring the public to have only the actual facts" and “in justice to former su perintendents.” , Mr. Poujj statement of last Thurs . day, he said, was written by a news paper man. He relieved the Asso ; eiated Press, of any responsibility,-for , the errors when he addfd: VTbe Asso , eiated Press representative' <fid not ’ write the article for me.” j," | Following publication of 'the ar ticle last .week, J. R. Collie, former superintendent of tile State’s prison; S. J. Busbee, former warden; Mrs. T. I’. Sale, widow of a former warden. ( and Frank Gough, of Lumberton, and ( A. E. Smith, of Mount Airy, former . direetirp o{ the insolations, issued -statements, in which they declared Superintendent Pou was in error with , regard to ..whpt was furnished prison ers during previous administrations. These statements mentioned “coffee,” ■ “sugar" aud “tobacco” as having been given to the prisoners in previous ad- I ministrations. Mr. Pou’s statement • in regard to this, did not mention “sugar” and "tobacco,” though the : superintendent stated informally that ■ he was "making investigation” of past accounts witli reference to 1 “sugar” being furnished prisoners. ‘ The text of Mr. Pou’s statement ’ relating to his former statement fol -1 lows: “The statement recently issued to 1 the Associated Press by me stated among other things that coffee was furnished prisoners for the first time during rffy administration. This state ment was prepared for the press by a 1 newspaper man who obtained his in formation from me. I did not go 1 over the statement earefuly tvlien pre ; Rented to me and did not notice that it included coffee. The statement that coffee was furnished prisoners for the first time during my adminis tration was erroneous and, desiring the public to have only the actual facts. I make this correction in jus tice. to former superintendents. This error was discovered by me Sunday. “The Associated Press representa tive did not write the article for me.” It has been estimated that about one-fifth the population of the United States attends the movies each day. The amount of admissions in one single year totaled $006,000,000. The seventy-five pyramids in Egypt, , that were built as tombs for the kings, i date from the period between the fourth and twelfth dynasties. rt V THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE BUTLER SOON TO QUIT The Pathfinder. General Butler is resigned to going back to the Marine corps. A leave of absence permitting him to serve as director of public safety for Phila delphia will expire this year, and President Coolidge !s not inclined to grant further extension. In fact, in allowing Butler’s last application the President expressed disapproval of any city taking men from the service, and plaintly indicated that he would not .honor further gjequestr<. The chief executive thinks Philadelphia should be able to find an energetic police head and general “clean-up” man in its large population. It is known that Governor I’inehot. of Pennsylvania, whose term as gov ernor is expiring, would be pleased to have Butler seek his office, but ac cording to the general: "This rumor about my running for governor is not worth .denial. I will not run for public joffSee.”' ■ When Butlhr reports back to the Marines after an absence of two years jie will not be entitled to an other -vacation for 24 years. His stay in the Quaker City lias used up his leave for that period of time. The general deplores the part poli ties plays in law enforcement. He speaks from experience: “It is not the fight with crime and view wrluoli wears out the police and takes their energies, but it is the fight against political influence—social in fluence .and the influence of wealth. The laws whieh have been written are not what the people meant. When they passed a law to enforce prohibi tion they passed one which it was al most impossible to enforce. “This by rights should have been a law whieh empowered us to seize liq uor wherever found. As it ! is, we must buy liquor in a place before we can obtain a warrant to seize it. “When a bootlegger is caught he has the means to employ a fine array of legal talents, whereas the forces of law and order are represented by a bunch of $5-a-day cops. The people will have to wake up. They will have to make lip tlieir minds whether or not they want prohibition. If they don’t want it, let them repeal the law. Otherwise they are going to debauch the race.” Thieves Oddly Betrayed. Is a black eat unlucky? Ask William Fiteliell, he knows! William. Kansas City police says, was discovered in the act of robbing the home of Austin Diestelhorst. He fled on the approach of ttie officers. But the house pet, a black eat, led the police to the close in which Wil liam was biding. Two men held up a clerk in a cigar store on lower Broadway, New York. After placing him in a closet, they started to rifle the cash register. Just then a customer came and ordered a particular brand of cigarettes. He robbers, posing as clerks, gave him too much change and the man’s sus picions were aroused. About that timAj>e clerk freed bimself and gave ■ the Ttlarm. The thieves were cap tured. HOLMES RAISED BID ON FISHERIES PLANT Wilmington Speculates on Possibili ty of Royster Fertilizer Company Being Interested. Wilmington. Aug. 12.—Specula tion as to whether Royster Fertilizer company, of Norfolk. Ya., was repre sented by Owen D. Holmes yesterday in raising the B. F. Keith-Davie H. Sentt hid on the Hilton plant of the Fisheries Products company today evoked no statement from Mr. • Holmes. Mr. Holmes, a members of Holmes ami Taylor, fertilizer broker's, de clined to answer any questions pro pounded on the proposition, stating that he would make his statement only when the sale was confirmed. Replying to a direct question a.s to whether he was representing Thomas' H. Hayes, president of the defunct concern. Mr. Holmes said that he had no statement to make. The Holmes's bid was for $48,703 or ten per cent above the hid made by B. F. Keith at the auction sale Monday whieh was conducted by Judge W. H. Neal, of Laurinhurg. one of the North Carolina main re ceivers. Whether or not the Holmes bid will be confirmed by Judge Isaac M. Meekins, of the 'United Stator dis trict court of east Carolina, remains to be seen. Bananas Agreed With Him. Starting out 33 years ago with a 25-eent bunch of bananas a Greek im migrant has built up in New York a profitable confectionery business. But he lias not hoarded his money to re tire to his native land as so many other foreigners have done. Nor lias lie'bought big apartment houses nOr office buildings to the tune of millions of dollars. He has done something more worth while with his money. He 'distributes has year’s profits among charitable institutions and,his needy neighbors—after the actual wants of his wife and seven children have been provided for. This year his profits' will enable him to give three truckloads of gitfs to 25 char itable institutions, to distribute 1,000 boxes of candy and to give a seven da.v party to everybody in his block, with music, dancing and refreshments. Besides tfiis he sends money to Greece to support 100 orphans he has adopt ed. Among the many things that Japan borrowed from Chinn was football, said to have been intro duced ns early ns the middle of the seventh century. Emperor Tobn 11. was an export player and got up a club at his palace. The beginning of professionalism may be traced to an emperor and his eourt, of whom -it is told that in a time of poverty they earned a little extra money by teaching the art of football. “Scientists think that t’he discov ery of a fossil of a five-toed horse is a more important event than the birth of Christ, They travel around lb* world to see a skeleton, but would not' cross the street to save soul.” WHEN DOES OLD IDE COME? Has Lack of Nerve Force, Ambition, Vitality and Endurance Made You Old in Middle Life Long Before Your Time? All Thoughtful Men and Women Should Read This Article. Your age, properly speaking, should no longer be reeokned in so many years. Because of important recent discoveries, eminent scientists now say, “We are only as old as we feel —and act!” Your age, counted in years, is sim ply a record of time—that many birthdays passed and gone, but with absolutely no bearing on “the true meaning” of age. To some, old age may seem to come at 40 or 50, while others appear young and vigorous at 70 or 75. What makes this big and terrible difference? Why must so many folks give up their youth when shey should be in the very prime of life? The trouble, in most instances, lies in depleted nerve force—that “vital spark” that gives enduring energy and laughs at old age. The lack of which robs us of most of our life —steals our youth and brings wrink les, dimmed eyesight and grey hairs to those no more than 40 years old. The will to do and the power to perform—the ambition, courage, con fidence and strengtli to carry you to the bigger, better and more enjoyable things of life—are unmistakable signs of youthfulness, even thougli you may be near a hundred years old! In regard to keeping your youth and the banishment of “Old Age,” we have beard and read much—but, only recently have newspaper articles told the story of “Bureher’s Ironux,” the discovery of a well known Vir ginia pharmacist. Young and old alike report speedy and satisfactory benefits —changed in a few days from weakness and despon dency to a feeling of strength and vigor of earlier days—responsible per sons of all ages and in ail walks of life make amazing statements prais ing the value of Bureher’s Ironux. One well known Norfolk man says, “Since taking Ironux, I have felt bet ter than anytime in 20 years.” A Richmond dentists says, “Ironux changed me from . a sickly part-time worker to a strong, healthy, happy man—who knows that life is wortli living!” Another man says, “After taking two bottles of Ironux I have gained 12 pounds in weight and feel like a boy again!” Don’t grow old before yortr time — and don’t let lack of nerve force and | vitality “sap” your energy, steal your pleasures and make you a pitiful weak ling. For only SI.OO any good drug gist will supply you with a big bottl* of the genuine Bureher’s Ironux on a binding guarantee of money promt ly refunded If you are not wonder fully pleased.

The United States offers a fresh religions field, in that millions of her citizens are as ignorant of Christian ity as any jungle dwellers are. It is not entirely a disadvantage. When religious teachers are reduced to re peating the same old sayings to peo ple who know beforehand what is com ing, the result is deadness. When, however, religious teachers are faced with the task of winning a Christian nation back to an understanding of Christianity, the challenge is heroic and the possibilities are great. Teach ing gets a meaning under such condi tions. Dean Walter S. Athern, 'in. his recent book, “Character Building in a Democracy,” discusses the general question of religious or ethical edu cation from a very evidently wide ex perience, and together with excellent counsel gives some very startling sta tistics. He says that there are over 27,000,- 000 American children, nominally Protestant, who receive no religious instructiton whatever, who are unat tached to church or Sunday school. He says there are 8,000,000 American children, nominally Protestant, under ten years of age, who are growing up in homes that have no contact with the church. Os the 8,076,000 Catholic youth of the country, under 25 years of age, he says that only 1,870,000 are in religious schools, although in these figures it must be considered that most of the others received religious training and instruction previous to their confirmation. Still, his figures show 0,806,000 who forsake instruc tion through middle and later ado lescence. There are Jewish youth under 25 years of age, of whom only 87,000 are in religious schools, and 1,543,000 are not. He thus concludes that nineteen out of twenty Jewish youth under 25 years receive no religious education; three out of four Catholic youth un der 25 are receiving no religious edu-, cation; and two out of three Protes tant youth of the same age group re ceive no formal instruction. On the whole, it means that seven out of ten of the youth of the United States are untouched by organized re ligious instruction. Os course, the figures are not all one-sided. There are 15,000.000 youth enrolled in the Sunday schools of one religious group alone. But none theless the adverse figures are impres sive, especially when laid alongside those which show that the bulk of the ’ crime is committed by youth under 25. Is it the fault of the young peo ple? Is it the fault of the church? Is it the fault of the method of in struction? Is there lack of reality in the kind of religion offered? Sure ly a truth that is true and vital should have resources of strength within itself to make its way to men% | minds. • USB PENNY COLUMN—IT PAYS r. ...

There are only two cars manufactured on the one-profit basis—the Studebaker in the fine-car field, and the Ford in the low-price field. Only in these two cases does one com pany in its own plants and with its own centralized organization make all bodies, ail engines, all clutches, steering gears, differen tials, springs, gear sets, gray iron castings, and drop forgings. Studebaker has no “yearly models,” but instead keeps its cars constantly up to date. Therefore this Standard Six Coach is ahead of the newest “yearly model,” yet owners are protected from the artificial depreciation which has cut millions of dollars from the resale value of many makes during the past 30 days. When Loser Was Rewarded. Suppose you had a wife and five children and no money in bank to speak of—and lost $2,480 of your em ployer’s money. A tough situation for, any one. Yet that’s just the fix a New York truck driver was in when he lost his employer’s wallet recently. With the prospect of los ing his job as a result of his care lessness this man was not in an al together hapy frame of mind. The unexpected often happens, how ever. This time it was the return of the lost wallet by the finder who chanced to be a wealthy manufactur er. The <7river stammered his thanks and his regrets that he could not pay a reward. The restorer of the wal let attended to that. The truck driver took his wife and kiddies for a vacation at the man’s country es tate and he became the man's private chauffeur. Startling Revelations In Will. . The will of the late Lord Curzon,* called by him his “literary testament,” was found to contain, when present ed for probate, “startling revelations” “I’LL TELL THE WORLD * THIS KARNAK IS GOOD” .1 “When a Medicine Steps in and Wipes Out a Four , Year Case of Stomach Trouble Like Karnak Did For Me, It’s Bound To Be the Real Thing,” Says Charlotte Man. . “When Karnak can step in and wipe out a case of stomach trouble that, kept me in misery for years, like it has done. I’ll tell the world it’s some mecidine,” declared T. E. At kinson, well known proprietor of a popular barber shop at 16 Bruns Ave., Seaverville, a suburb of Charlotte. “If anybody ever suffered more from indigestion and gastrities, I sure ' ly feel sorry for them,” he continues. “Why, after every meal I had such awful pains in my stomach I could i hardly stand up straight. Gas pressed • ’ around my heart until I could hardly get my breath, and my stomach felt sore as a boil. “I kept getting worse in spite of all 1 I could do until I became so weak ■ and rundown I could hardly stick on • the job. “At least a hundred people told me I to take Karnak, and when I finally i started on this medicine I could just i almost feel my troubles leaving me. Three bottles have fixed me up so I feel like I have a new stomach. I 1 just eat anything I want now andj PAGE THREE regarding a former premier under jfj which I’urzon worked. Friends fear ing the result of publishing this part of the will agreed to suppress it for ||| the present. It was later reported that the reference was to Premier Lloyd George and his work at the iji conference which drew tip the peace treaty of Versailles. Lord Curzon, worth about sir.ooo,ooo, left two sw castles to the state, a collection of Nelson relics to the national museum, and his collection of Napoleonic $ books, prints and relics to Oxford university. Dr. Binder, eminent sociologist, says spanking is the ideal punishment 3 for disobedient children; that other |j forms of corporal punishment soon ; lose corrective effect, and that verbal '& castigation and threats are morn* ’ harmful than any form of bodily chas- ' : tisement. A cat chasing a mouse caused a 18 • $40,000 fire in Cardiff, Wales, when <5! the former knocked a box of matches from a table, which occasioned igni- ’4* tion. m 9ml don’t have a minute's trouble or pain afterward.
