CHARGE MAN MISTREATED CHILD WHILE IN CITY - Stranger Held Here Charged With -11 l Treatment of Girl He Says Is s' His Daughter. > A white man giving his name as William Dilger was arrested by ro - liee officers here Monday night and i lodged in jail on a warrant charging assault on a female, the arrest fol . lowing complaint that the man was i mistreating a four-year-old girl whom , he claimed was his daughter. Dilger came to Concord sometime Monday and secured permission to nee , the Y. M. C. A. swimming pool for a - shimming exhibition by the girl. He advertised the exhibition by placing tile ! child on the hood of a ear, giving her , a string to hold in one hand for sup , port, while with the other hand she held to the car. During the exhibition the child was i required to swim for quite a while, local officers were told, and then Dil ger told her to dive from the high diving board, despite the girl's pro tests thgt she was too tired and was afraid to make the dive. He insist ed. however, and at this point some women spectators took a hand. They called a secretary of the Y, who stopped the exhibition and later lmd Dilger arrested. Several of the wom en agreed to appear in court as wit nesses against the man. The little girl was taken to the home of Mr. ami Mrs. B. W. Means, where she was cured for during the night and day. She is a pretty blonde but shows the result of hard treatment. Dilger told polibe officers that he is a show man and that his wife is with a show in Florida. He has been going about the country with the child, apparently living on pro ceeds taken in at various exhibitions given by her. He insisted that he is the father of the child, although there is no similarity between them. Police officers searched Dilger and his baggage after placing him under arrest, finding several physician’s in struments. some handepffs and a bunch of obscene pictures. The pic tures for tile most part are of nude women. It is planned by officers to give Dil ger a hearing this afternoon, he hav ing been sent to jail in default of bond in tbe sum of SSOO. Dilger told local officers that he bus been in Durham. Washington and other cities in recent weeks .with the child. He said lie and his wife had been together with a show but that the show was disbanded so he came north with -his daughter, leaving his wife in Florida, where she was stay ing with some other show people. Dilger is about forty years of age and bitterly resented being arrested. Local police officers stated this morning that if given an opportunity they would try to make a full investi gation if the case to determine why any one with such pictures as were found on Dilger's should be touring tbe country with a four-ycar-old girl. They also would like to determine why the man was currying the phy sician's instruments. WORLD’S CHAMPION AUTO DRIVER IN "SPEED SPOOK” Jimmy Murphy Drives Car No. 2 in •Johnny Hines’ Latest Mole-Comedy. By the Press Agent. Jimmy Murphy, who is one of the contestants in the great automobile race pictured iu Johnny Hines' lat est tbrillo-comedy, "The Speed Spook." which i> playing at tbe Concord Thea tre now, is one of the greatest char acters on the auto track today. But few drivers have ever gained a place in the hearts of the race-lov ing public as has James Anthony Mur phy. the smiling son of old Erin, who cares for neither man nor devjj once he crosses the starting line and steps on the gas. Spectacular to the iioiiit of recklessness in so far ns his own safety is concerned, he races at a maddening pace for every inch of the way. roaring in and out of the turns, with never a care for the lurches or skids of his powerful Miller machine. Jimmy Is out there to win, and if you don't believe it watch him in the raeing sequences in "The Speed Spook." Jimmy's car in the race is No. 2. In fact, it might be interest ing to watch him and Tommy Milton being so courteous to each other as they whisk exhaust smoke iu each oth er's faces at every opportunity, al most daring Hie other to lift his foot off the throttle by even so much as a thousandth part,of an inch. Interest ing? Well, you might call it that unless you're the sort of a iierson who would be bored with a choice seat at the Battle of Gettysbui*. Cabarrus Plans Schools. Salisbury Post. Cabarrus county is planning a gen eral forward movement in schools. The determination is not reached a day too soon, for Cabarrus county is run ning behind the state and should do exnetly what is now planned. Rowau is ringed around with a group of coun ties that have been running from us in the matter of rural schools, and the position of Cabarrus has kept us from standing alone in a backward position. Rowan bus been standing behind progressive counties in this matter quite long enough, and we are planning to move forward as rap idly as is desirable. A big success to efforts to build schools everywhere in the two counties. Another Gift to Davenport. There just comes from Davenport College the announcement that thrpugb tbe beneficence of Mr. Ben jamin N. Duke, of New York, another $25,000 has been added to the endowment of the institution. This with the gift last month in creases the endowment to $200,000 and will greatly facilitate - tbe good work being done by this institution now entering its seventieth year’ of service.

Three ripping - cheers! 1 The managers of the Gibson and ! Kannapolis teams have at last got - together and arranged for a three s game series which is not only to 4e i cide the champion of Cabarrus county but which is to decide the champion ? of the state of North Carolina in ' amateur circles. i If anyone lias better news than 1 that, let him trot out his news, * At the present writing, the two ■ teams are tied for first place. Both - have won three games and one has ■ been tied in the seven previous con tests. Each is confident that if it ilis given a chance it will easily defeat . the other ail three games. All that is wanted is the opportunity and now i this has been provided. Os course, siuee the Gibson grand i stand and fence is no more, due to ■ the big wind of several weeks ago. ‘ all the games will be played at Kan napolis, Cabarrus park. i There is a little weeping about this. 1 It has always been admitted that Kan* napolie had exactly 00.44 per cent, better field than Gibson and it is only six miles distant from the capital of ■ Cabarrus so that the dash can be wit nessed by practically every one. Then ■ too, the grandstand at Kannapolis is much more comfortable than Gibson's was before it took its departure from this mundaue sphere. Tlie two teams will have practically the same lineup that they had ere the Gibson team had to quit playing. There is one possible exception. Haynes has gone to Kannapolis and so Gibson will have to look for an other short stop. The pitchers will again be the same. Gbson will use Simmons. Ferguson and Gates. Kan napolis will have Holshouser. the great, Culp and possibly Sherrill. A fierce rivalry has existed this season between the two teams and will culminate in the contests Thurs day, Friday and Saturday. A record attendance is expected at each of the games. Despite the fact that there is the rivalry between the Concord and Kan napolis teams, it is a matter of record that in the games last week with Fayetteville, large numbers of Con cord people motored to Kannapolis and rooted loyally for the Cabarrus team. Either team would rather see the other win than have the victor go out of the county. -MISS Ml KIEL WOLFF WINS ESSAY CONTEST Gets Year’s Free Admission to Con cord Theatre.—Miss Kluttz and Mrs. Ferris Also Winners. Final decision of the judges in the essay contest conducted by the Con cord Theatre ’during Greater Movie Week was made Monday and Miss Muriel Wolff was announced the win ner of the first prize which consists of a years free admission to that theatre.

J.: Editor of the Courier-News, Plainfield. N. J. Dear Editor: Your excellent editorial about Flor ida land just says, "Competition with California is something else that should warrant caution." It is not California that Florida has most to fear. The California boom has al ready pretty well collapsed. It was largely bused upon a climate not nearly so good as that of our Wat . cluing mountains. North Carolina has really fine cli mate. like the climate of Plainfield . in May, only which lasts all year around. Aud I venture to prophesy n forthcoming huge boom in North Carolina, probably right after that a boom of New Jersey as a health re sort and industrial center. Yours very truly, BOLTON HALL.

His bent is for sport, for action, for the open air. The drug •ry of the schoolroom is distasteful to him. An annual tragedy of his young life is the termination of va cation days and the call back to books. Under such conditions too rnauy boys each year yield to their inclination to cut short their school days for an idleness that leads to failure as men or for a premature en try into business life. Some of these latter may succeed, but few of them would not have suc ceeded more easily and more fully if (hey had acted on the realisation that the best capital a young man can have in going into business or goiug to work is an education. They will feel the handicap of a poor education throughout life, however successful in some ways they may be. Go back to school, boys, while you have the chance. It is the keenest regret of thousands of men who have dropped out in the race of life or who have forged ahead despite their handicaps, that they did not have your chance, or did not take the chances they bad. Don't join those legions of failure and regret. Heed the counsel of your elders, who know that your school years are your gold en years, which are fleet and can never return to you, and which, as you use or abuse them, are to shape for good or ill your future.

Babson, widely known | . business statistician whose articles , appear each Saturday in The Senti [ nel, had the following recently to say . on advertising in speaking of repfo . duetions of a Palmolive Soap, a ! Quaker Oats and a Vacuum Oil Com i pany advertisement: "These headlines have shown how a few clever advertisers are undertak ing to give people what they wairt. “This first ad. says nothing about , soap in its headlines. It is beauty. ■ not soap, that people want. Hence this advertisement strikes the nail on the head. “Another—‘7:Bs A. M.—The Break fast Ueoked and Tbe Kitchen Pool' — that is the important pointy the point that interests friend wife in her pur chase. “To Pare Down Manufacturing Costs,’” another headline * * ‘not n word about oil until you get into the ad. What the manufacturer wants is i n °t oil but lower manufacturing costs.” The above comment on three excep . tonally well-written "ads.” illustrates a. point that-is important iu all ad i Vortising if it is to be reuliy effect . ive. Such advertising must go straight to the point. Often a headline may make, or may war, an advertisement. An advertisement is supposed pri marily to tell a story. Tbe effectively the point of the story can be told at the beginning, the ■better. Good advertising is, after all, just common sense applied. \ But to be 100 per cent, effective it must be studied. Advertising will not just take care of itself. The apparent tendency on the part of some advertisers at times to feet that "any o(d thing” in the way of copy will do. just so it fitls the ad vertising space allotcd for it, is all wrong. r That is one reason why some adver tising does not seem to get the results it should get. i civ. .. , ;.. ;~ . -v •; , - '■ ■■!
