THEY’RE BETTING AGAINST r HYLAN. mh .Kd'i Strcet is willing to hot 3 to t th« Mhydr Hylan is not. Winner in the approaching Democratic primary. Os (Course Wall Street does not con trol the voting in New York, but those men who make their money i watching chances to bet know most of the time what they are talking about 1 and it is seldom you find them offer- ' ing odds on the wrong man. ( As a matter of fact indications point, j #o strongly to a Walker victory in the ] primary that Mayor Hylan haa prac tically admitted that he will enter the, 1 election as an independent candidate. That is what William Rudolph 1 Hearst has been advising him to do and as Hylan has been listening to Hearst suggestions it is considered cer tain that he will be in the election re gardless of the outcome of the pri mary. Charges have been made openly that Hearst is controlling Hylan and while these have beep denied by the Mayor and the newspaper- man, it cannot be denied that the Hearst papers are throwing their support to the Mayor and that the owher of the papers is doing all he can for Hylan, although he is in far away California. Mayor Hylan made one serious po litical error. He took the advice of Hearst in preference to the advice of Governor Al Smith. When he sought to question the- policies and motives of Governor,Smith he stirred up a hor ) nets’ nest. • New York people believe In "Al” and they are going to show that faith at the polls. ARE THEY PRAYING SINCERE LYT We are not one to question power of prayer or to say it*Boes hot jiiwfit one to pray, but we are not ■ persuaded that alk of the prayers in Tthe South in recent weeks are going to bring raifi. We are not persuaded we have a firm belief that the pray ers for the most part are the result of hysteria, brought on by fear of a wat er famine. How many of those persons who are ■ praying for rain now ever prayed be fore? How many of them really know what prayer means? Prayer, it seems to ns, is something more than lip (poring in some public place. How many of these people are praying be cause they really think it will do good? Many of them are going through a process that does not even approaeli worship and they have no faith. Surely there can be no real prayer if there is no faith. It's a mighty easy thing to make a pretense of praying when disaster fhees you. The real test comes in daily practice when things are mov ing along smoothly and everything ap parently is all right. Do these people who are praying for rain now pray Spfiaily for strength to live as they - Should live? Do they try to live in snch a manner that their prayers will be answered? W* have been taught that ths ear of God to always open to supplica tion bat we are not convinced that ■ >■ -a, ;-4kf He always grants the request; cer- 1 tnifily not when the request comes through fear of drought and not through love of - - * -- ■■ . ■ r - i < WOULD BE A GREAT THING FOR , (GERMANY. ' V , - . f. /, 1 Speaking before the Coiicord Rotary i Club, H. W. Blanks, secretary of the Concord Chutnber <Jf Commerce and 1 General Secretary of the Concord Y. M. X’. A., told his brother Rotarians | that KuropCa|g-Rotnry Clubs are in a , quandary as to whether or not they should allow clubs to be organised in i Germany. We are not familiar, perhaps, With ' all of the questions that arise in the * ease, but there would have been some * very serious objections if we voted , against allowing -Rotary to get n foothold in Germany. If the Kaiser i had believed in “Service Before Self" < he would have been killing to devote i the time and talent of bia people to | world pence rather thpn to prepara- 1 tions for war. “He Profits Most Who Serves Best,” - says the Rotafy Slogan, and the Ger- , mans need to know this. They need i to believe it and live it. We say by l all means let Germany have Rotary 1 for certainly Rotary is big enough to r take care of itself and spread its in- *' Hticnce even In Germany. EGG-LAYING CONTEST ! To Be Held at McCormick, S. C., No- i vember l-*i. ( <• McCormick, 8. C-, Sept. 10.—(AP 1 —Tthe southeastern' egg laying con- < test under the supervision of Clemoon College, will opefi November 1 at Me- i Corkmick and will bo national in I its scope. i The plant of 30 houses will cover seven acres and will accomodate 1200 hens. Entries have been receiv- < ed from Michigan, Alabama. Virgi nia. North Carolina. South Carolina, t Georgia, Florida* Tennessee, and i Miwlssippl. i Professor A. F. Cannon, formerly oh the staff of the poultry division I of the Georgia State College of Agri- i culture, will manage the contest, Which is the second of its kind to be - launched in the southeast. The pur- i pose of the (Contest is to show by au- ] thentic records what can be done i with poultry under Southern condi- i tious. | The contest is not financed by I any feed eompapy. and is not operat ed for profit: it is stated. 1 D. H. Hall, supervisor for Clem son College, will arrive at McCor mick September 15 to inspect the buildings which are almost complet- ] ed. Although the contest will not commence until November 1, many ) npplicatis have been made, and some j of the best known breeders will be j represented, among them being Geo. ( B. Ferris, Alabama Leghorn Forms, , Ferguson Farms, Pineview Poultry ( Farm, and Laws Leghorn Farms. , The contest is. open to individual j BMSlena as well as to commercial ] poultry fantia. , The entries will rooisist of i*ens , containing 10 hens and two alter- j nates. The contest is to check up in t an official way on the number of eggs { laid during the 12 months from Nov- s ember 1 to November 11. an at the ; end of that time to furnish each ow- f ner with a complete record of his in- , dividual hens. Trained popltrymen j be in charge and permanent files will ( be kept, it i stated, on feed cpnsump- , tion, egg production, wight and value , of eggs, produced and cost of feed. Detailed wekly bulletins will be " mailed srom Clem son College show- J ing the relative standing of the en- ! tries and the ’ number of eggs laid. 1 A report will be broadcasted by radio 1 from demson every Wednesday J night. The public will therefore be j kept in touch with the progress of the^conteet. Other similar contests are beiira 1 held at the Alabama Polytechnic ' Institute, the Connecticut Agri cultural College, the New Jersey J Agricultural Experiment Station, the 1 State College of Washington, the ' Agriculture and Mechanical College 1 of Arkansan, the Michigan Agri- < cultural College, and the University ' of California. Florida Encourages Capital ] Review of Reviews. One reason for the amazing devel- ( opments that are .going forward in | Florida is to be fonnd in ttq» common ( agreement’ that has been reached in | that State to encourage capital and ( to distoumge demagogues. Specula tion is indeed rife; but the 'thing to , be noted in Florida today is the crea- , tion of substantial improvements— . highways, railway extensions, docks , and harbor facilities, business build- , ings, hotels for visitors, and homes for ■the new’ citizens who come to till the soil or to wdrk at their trades. All this is merely a 20th century manner of taking a relatively neglected part of the country and bringing it rapid ly abreast of the best standards of other States or regions, by the use of capital and the latest methods. In stinctively, our American public would rather develop Florida than invest its surplus capital in' Soviet Russia or in some other distant place of of un stable finance that is insistently pro posing to float loans in our money markets, with tempting commissions to those who can find the lenders. A judge was crossing from Ireland to Holyhead one stormy night when he knocked against a lawyer suffering severely from sea sickness, “Can I do anything for you?” in quired the judge. "“Yea,” gasped the sufferer. “Will your Iyordehip overrule this motion?” Rest Attorney: “Your honor, un fortunately I am opposed by an uni mitigated scoundrel.” Second Attorney: “My learned i friend to such % notorious Har—” Judge (sharply): “Council will . kindly conQne their remarks to such , matters aa are in, dispute.” 1 John: “And after the party I asked her if I might see her home.” r Jarry: ‘“What dll she say?” • John: “She .Md sha-asend me,a . • picture ot tt. . ,V..JTq*r - , Ji. ... THE M«BT WONDERFUL THING. Washington Times. You age a beggar who # wants a dime and you paw him by, knowing from experience tbat shelter, food and medical attention are provided at the expense of the taxpayers for those in need, be they citizens or ! strangers. j j You are asked for a loan And yon j try to evade it. knowing tbat banks I will not make loans without security j and that borrowers who have no I security often are habitual borrowers and poor payerß. * You listen to the dory of a friend’s I misfortune and you say iit n 1 methodical sort of way ”’thnt’« too bad." You may be too. preoccupied or too indifferent to put the feeling in ,to your voice that will carry the real | consolation to the friend who is seeking it. And then, perhaps someone you do! not know is caught by a rock in a j cave or someone you do. not know ie in danger of diphtheria in n far off snowbound, fastness. You stop seek- \ ing money. You stop work. You throw yous daily occupation to the winds and dig feverishly for days. You take a chance witl\ dog teams and freezing weather to drive day and night at the risk of your life to savg that someone you do not know. ■y Someone is drowning. Yon cannot swim. But you take a chance with your life and the welfare of your family to save that someone you do not know nnd who may not wish to be saved. A ship is sinking. Yon step aside tbat the weak may be saved. You grapple with robbers, you dash into blazing buildings for someone you do not know. Why such daily indifference to the non-spectacular suffering of dnily life and such magnificent sacrifice to the stirring tragedies? Are we all hero -worshippers or are we self-worshipers, Reeking to be come heroes? Are we cold nnd indifferent, to the suffering of others, forced by timidity to attempt the heroic thiug when oc casion demands . it? t Are we mobs, moved by some more Imperious and gallant leaders among us? The most valuable thing in the world w human life, and that is the one thing we nre willing to risk to preserve for another. Friend or foe, stranger or kin. it matters not. When a human life is at stake the meanest and humblest is willing to throw his own into the gamble to save it.’ That, in itself, is one wonderful thing about life. THE COUNTY CLINIC. Kinston News, The Daily News docs not pretend to be any expert upon medical sub- 1 jeots but takes tbe liberty of present ing this editorial to its readers upon the ground that, possibly, it is as much of an expert as the Bonrd of I’-ounty Commisskiners! It is under stood that a oosiderable sentiment tot fhwTtboliiton of the eotihfy ollnfr has grown up. How it originated and who is fostering it now this -paf>er jloes not know. This much, however, is known: The clinic is treating, for the exact cost of the injections, 40 cases of syphilis, none of whom are able to pay for medical attention: it is treating.a number of other ven ereals who are unable to pay the re- 1 gular charges for medical attention. ' Since the clinic was established, the ' death rates of tgphoid fever and diph theria. in the eounty. have fallen! to an almost negligible rate. With the abolition of the clinic, what physicians of the eounty will take upon themselves the responsi- ; bility of treating the 40 cases of sy philis who are now receiving treat ment from the clinic? Which of our ! practioners will take upon 'themselves the woi-k of typhoid ami diphtheria vaccination on among the school chil dren of the county? What dentist will obligate themselves to examine the teeth of the school children, many of whose parents are unable to pay the regular dentist's fees? -’■lf there is fault to be found with the present administration of the clinic, which, by the way, has re vived national attention among au thorities in this sort of work, then let the charges be brought openly against the administration, but * for the sake of our good name let u#not abolish a work, that has saved many times its value in human lives. What is $8,000.00 compared with the 100 or more little lives saved from horri ble death of strangulation by the ra fages of diphtheria? Our federal, state and county governments are spending good money for the preven tion of cholera among hogs and croup among chickens. As we, of Lenoir County, so parsimonious as to rate our children and unfortunates below tbe level of barnyard fowls and beast? , Can You Guess What Car This Is? Monroe Enquirer, A few of the messages from the spare covers on a popular make of car: I rattle, but I don’t strike. Darling, I am growing old. Where papa goes, mamma goes or Lizzie stays at home. The crap shooter's special—Shake, rattle and roll. Willie’s nightie. Spinal cords.wear the longest. 1914 spoon holder. '' Four wheels, 4 breaks, 4 more in talmerits. A tin you all love to touch.

Hello, Bud, old scout, howsa wife?” “She’a in heaven,” replied Bud sorrowfully. . „ * “la that so? I’m sorry!”—then realising tbat this did nqt sound quite THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE HUGE SUM CASH GOES FROM CITY thousands of Dollars Monthly Going to Mail Order Houses of tbe North and West. Durham County Progress. Realizing that several thousand dol lars are being sent away from Dur ham every week by citizens who are batvoaizing the mail order houses in the north and west, local merchants lire planning to wage a relentless cam paign against this practice anj to make an effort to keep this money at home where it will do tile most good and. with this in view a campaign of education which will have as7ts ob ject to show those who patronize the mail order houses that they can. get goods just as good in quality and as cheaply or more cheaply in price right; here at. home than they can by send ing away from the city for the same thing. A survey made at Greensboro re cently showed that five million dol lars annually was the sum being sent away from that city to northern and western mail order houses. While the sum sent from this city and eounty in not thought to be as great, it is known that it will amount to several thous and dollars monthly and this’money, it is pointed out, could nnd should be kept at home. Just what the exact plans of the merchants in Durham to fight the "mail order evil” are to be has not not been decided upon as the present time. It is known, however, that they intend to wage a battle which they hope and believe will be a winning one and which will cut down the number of orders and the amount of money now be-ng sent to the mail prder places nut of Durham. And in the meantime local citizenß are being urged to "trade at home” or lo at least look around nnd be con vinced that they can buy goods just as cheaply here nnd that the local merchant always stands back of these. “Yes. I think I shall buy n motor car this spring.” said the host, cas ually, during a lull In the conversa tion. “I haven’t decided what make yet; but it’s no use getting a cheap one, they’re so unreliable. I sup pose I, can get a really serviceable mariiine for $1,500 or so.” While the company were still gasp ing at.this careless mention of wealth, little Willie spoke up: “I say, dad, will that funny looking man call every month for the money like he did last year when you bought my bicycle?” Even the Postmaster Advertises His Wares. Publishers! Auxiliary. Editor R. M. Wilson of the Eckley, Colo., Tribune has had possession of •hat paper less than thirty days. His ssue of August 27 comprised 12 [rages, each filled with a fine assort nent of display advertising and rend ing matter descriptive of . the old lettlers' picnic, which is an annual pcent in that town. In view of the fact that he claims every business lrm in the town of Eckley is repre «mted in this edition, one would naturally wonder whether or -not [hat assertion could be made with iny degree of ,honesty, but in, thin •ase it is true, even to the postmns er. who advertises his wares in the Eckley Tribune as follows: v Me, Too! While everybody else is wishing ■verybody else, through the Tribune, ’ongratulatione on the annual old lettlers picnic, I want to do so aa lenrtily as any one, if not more so.

AH the work was done in the Tribune office by Mr. Wilson himself with the assistance of one person who is not a printer. Young Wilkins, who was of very limited means, presented the minister, after tbe wedding ceremony, with a couple of frayed bank notes and some loose change, saying: “I’m sorry, par- this is all I've got.” Then, observing the faint look of disap pointment which the poor parson was unable to restrain, he added hastily: “But if we have any children, we will send them to yonr Sunday school.”- Look!
