DIKE AIDS TWO WAIFS IN FINDING THEIR KIN Penniless Little Girl Orphans in Texas Get SI,OOO and North Carolina Home. Fort Worth, Texas, Ang. 14.—Two little splete Texas orphans, homeless and penniless, and living on the char ity of ranchmen have more real money today than they ever dreamed exist ed, and are going to find a home back in North Carolina, all because they are distant relatives of B. N. Duke, New York millionaire. The plight of the children was brought to Sir. Dnke's attention by County Judge Templeton, of Welling ton. Last Saturday SI,OOO arrived from Mr. Duke with a suggestion that the children be sent to the North Carolina home founded by Mr. Duke. Essie Lee Barton and Jessie Mae Barton, six and four, lost both parents —'— * tuns, I/Viu IIUICUIo in 1923. Money left by the father was suf | ficient to care for the two only a short' I time. ( Since then Wellington folks have been looking after them. That they were related to Mr. Duke was I confided to Judge Templeton recently (when neighbors appealed to the coun ty for aid in buying the children clothes and food. USES FLAG AS WASH RAG GETS UNIQUE SENTENCE Youth Must Visit Patriot Shrine Weekly and Memorize poem. Newburgh, N. Y„ Aug. 14.—Record er Jacob A. Decker today imposed an unusual sentence on Morris Marks, aged 19, after finding the latter guilty of “desecrating the American flag.” Morris, who was seen using a flag to clean his automobile, was ordered to visit Washington’s headquarters once every week until Thanksgiving and learn the history of the flag and coun try and a poem on the flag. Judge Decker, who baa a reputa tion for elocution, suggested “The!

At Friday's session of the General Conference of the Lutheran Colored Mission in convention at Grace j Church, the Rev. M. Holsten, pastor, the foundation was laid for mission work among the Negroes in Africa. Funds are to be raised at once, and i the necessary preparations for this extension of work will be immediately undertaken. A remarkable growth was reported by the representatives of the Mission Board and by the superintendents of the various fields who addressed a capacity audience at the mission ser vice held Friday night. The increase in membership during the past year averaged fourteen per cent., and in contributions thirteen per cent. Splen did progress and increased activity was also reported by women delegates meeting in a general assembly of the Dorcas Society, composed of the Lad ies Aid Societies of the various con . gregations. Mrs. Mary Kny, of Char lotte. presided. The doctrinal position of the Luth eran Church in regard to man’s orig inal and natural state was clearly set j forth by I)r. H. Nan, president of Immanuel Lutheran College. Greens boro, in a paper on “The Image of God.” Entering into a deep discus sion of what the "image of God 1 ’ af ter which man was treated consisted, the speaker pointed out that it was not physical, but altogether spiritual, —a blissful knowledge of God, an in herent righteousness nnd holiness. The fallacy to think of the “image of God*’ in man as having been personal and physical has not only led men to the erroneous conception of God as an “enlarged man,” but also given men a false opinion regarding their own personality and state, which, as a re sult of the Fall, is entirely and in nately depraved, so that all which man does is tainted by this corrup tion ; conversion to Chrjst, regenera tion, alone gives man true righteous ness and holiness of life. Tile alumni of Immanuel Lutheran College at Greensboro, will meet to night: the Rev. W. O. Hill, of Yon kers. N. Y„ is president of the asso ciation, which is actively engaged in furthering the cause of its Alma Mater; the meeting will be open to all who wish to attend. Prominent lead ers will speak.

Drewes, of St. Louis, Mo., and the Rev. W. H. Lash, of Greens boro. will speak. Anthems will be sung by the combined choirs of neigh boring effies. The Rev. M. N. Carter, of Chicago, 111., will speak in the morning service at 10:30. The convention will be brought to a close with an address by Prof. H. Nactler, of •Greensboro, at the night service at 8 o'clock. The public is cordially invited. W. W. MORRIS TO HEAD DAVIDSON ALUMNI HERE Meeting Held Friday Night in Which Ossociation Is Organized.—To Have Supper at Country Club.

I Cline & Moose THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE CABARRUS BEAT BLEACHERS AND GO ON THE TOP Mauldin Loses Hard Battle After Holding Gates at Bay For Three In nings.—Final Game Next Tuesday. (BY JAZZY MOOREI Kannapolis, Aug. 15.—Cabarrus and Bleachery fought five innings of the best league ball ever seen here Fri day. Cabarrus was fighting with their backs to the wall to break a deadlock that has existed between the two teams for some time, and with the heady “Bub” Sullivan on the hill, the Cab's finally defeated the Bleachers 4 to 1. Gives But Two Hits. Like the immortal Robert E. Ix*e, Paul Mauldin emerged from the con flict a loser in the abbreviated engage ment. but the little fellow covered himself with undying glory in the first bitter struggle with the Cabs. No better baseball has ever been pitched ou a Kannapolis diamond. Master of his knuckle ball, king of his curve, and uncanny in his perfect control, of everything he had, the , Bleachery star hurled such baseball that for three consecutive iuningx the Cabs were heled hitless and without a run. It was three up and three down, with the fielders having pasy chances most of the time. Mauldin I deserved that ball game if a pitcher ever did deserve one. The great trouble was that his teammates could not make a run for him. Only two fluke hits were given the Cabs. Score by Innings. Bleachery made their run in the second inning when Lipe doubled to center. Centerfieider Gilliam was all set to make it a clean play, but it was a trifle too far to the left for him to handle. The pill evaded his grasp aud before a play could be attempted Lipe had strutted down the home stretch. Another Bleacher secured a hit before the inning elapsed. A rank error by Williams helped the Cabs to score two runs in the fourth stanza. Helms’ and. Johnson’s singles accounted for the rest of the tallies. Possibly the best fielding play went to Johnson in rightfield for the win ners. Hutton, for Bleachery, showed that he was adept at snatching them out of the dirt, which ability proved valuable in the game. Final Game. The final game of the second half and of the entire season will be played Tuesday at the Cabarrus park between these two clubs. “Hard Charlie” Brown, from Concord, will twirl ’em over for the Cabs, while Weathers, city team pitcher, will get the Bleach ery assignment. DR. MIMS IS OFFERED DEPARTMENT AT DUKE It Is Learned That He Is Consider ing Seriously the Post'. Greensboro News. It is pretty generally norated around the state that the authori ties of Duke university are not de voting all their time to plans and specifications dealing with buildings. A .preeminent faculty, one that will stack up with the best, is on the program. This was learned here* yesterday on good authority. It has been said that Dr. E. C. Brooks, an alumnns of old Trinity college, and now president, of State college, Raleigh, is headed back to his alma mater. Now the report is out that Dr. Edwin Mims, of Vander bilt university, is being sought to be come head of the English depart ment. Old Trinity men in Greens boro believe that Dr. Mims has been offered the yost, and is now con sidering it very seriously. Then, too, comes the rumor that Dr. W. P. Few will become chancel lor of the university, leaving the presidency of Trinity collegge to Dr. Brooks. Trinity men here, who ap parently are on the inside, predict that owing to Dr. Few’s poor health, he will relinquish 'his hold on the institution, and that while he will be known as the chancellor of Duke uni versity, the real, active head of the big institution will be Dr. Eugene C. Brooks. What seems to be of more interest at present to old Trinity men is the possibility of the return of Dr. Mims to the state, and especially to their alma mater. Dr. Mims is one of the greatest teachers North Carolina hns ever boosted. From 1894 until 1909 he was professor of English at Trinity college. From Trinity he was called to the University of .North Carolina where he became head of the English department until 1912- Vanderbilt then summoned him. In the three in stitutions, Dr. Mims served with dis tinction. In addition to his profes sorial duties, he has given a great deal of time to writing and lecturing. Dr. Edmund Davidson Sopor, of Northwestern university, has been secured to head the department of re ligious training. He will begin his duties at the fall opening of the uni versity. It is generally understood that while no radical changes in the faculty -are imminent, yet it is known that the authorities are on the alert with an eye to making 'the Duke faculty the finest of the fine.
