North Carolina Christian Advocate. In 1790 Edenton, Washington, New Bern and Wilmington were the only postoffices in North Carolina. As late as 1812 there was not a ews papor west of Raleigh. In 1787 Char lotte was a village with 270 in habitants—ls 3 whites and 123 color ed. The industries consisted of a saw mill, a uour mill, blacksmith shop and three stores. And this phenomen al growth was the result of an im petus given the community by es tablishing the county seat (here in 1774 and by the erection of Liberty Academy in 1777. Eighty-five years ago which ia within the memory of some i>eople still alive, New Bern had a popu’ation of only 3,099, Wil mington 4,747, Fayetteville, 4,285, Raleigh 2,244 and Charlotte was slightly larger than Raleigh, while Greensboro and Salisbury followed close behind .the state capital numerically. And these were, at that time, the largest towns in the State- All others were mere country villages with a few stores, a blacksmith shop or two, and the county seats had a court house, a jail and a whip ping post. Is it any wonder that the following became a familiar saying, "North Carolina is a vale of humility between two mountains of conceit — South Carolina and Virginia.” But look at the Old North State today. Her chief products are no longer “tar, pitch and turpentine,” as the older geographies put. it, but in agri- I culture, in manufacture, and in all lines of commercial progress she oc cupies a plaee in the front ranks of the sisterhood of states.

I Cline & Moose CITY TO CONSTRUCT FREE PARKING GROUND^ Vacant Lot In Rear of City Hall to Be Utilized as Space for Automo biles In I'd lure. j City officials decided Monday that the vacant lot behind the city hall would be used in the future as a free parking space and work will be begun immediately putting it in shape for such a use. According to the plans made, the lot will be laid off In regu lar squares and the parking will be i permitted inside of these squares. A ■ fence is also to be constructed on the exterior bonndary of the parking , grounds. I The step of the city officials has I been greeted with much enthusiasm by owners of automobiles who find Saturday parking a problem. The increased number of automobiles has | made parking difficult and this dif ficulty has been accentunated by the I narrowness of many of the streets. With the new parking ground which is to accommodate over 100 ears, it is hoped that there will be some les sening of the problem. BURNED WHEN STEAM PIPE BREAKS AT ENI} J. L. Rimer Has Narrow Escape and Is Badly Scalded at Southern Cot to Oil Company.. - .T. L. Itimer, superintendent of the Southern Cotton Oil Company, was l badly burned Monday afternoon when | a pipe broke, sending out a spray of live steam directly on him and en dangering his life. The fact that he remembered the way to the door probably saved his life. According to reports from the mill Rimer had gone in the boiler room to open a valve to let some of the steam out. While he was thus en gaged the end of the pipe blew off, sending a spray of muddy water and dirt directly in his face which tem porarily blinded him. This was fol lowed by the steam. Although he was unable to see his knowledge of the room enabled him to grope his way to the door and es cape. Medical aid was summoned and it was found that although his burns were painful, they were not se rious. Negro Carried From One Jail to An other, Report. Charlotte Observer. Alvin Mansel, Asheville negro, frightened unmercifully, is being held for safekeeping in this section of the state, shuffling from one jail to an other, according to Sheriff W. O. Cochran, who has him in charge for ,the ti'me’beihgj j,’< Tlie negro was brought here early Sunday morning by Sheriff Mitchell, of Buneombe county, who left Ashe ville just ahead of a mob of 500, the latter seeking the negro for the al leged criminal attack of a young Ashe ville lady. He was held in jail through the day here Sunday until 6 o’clock, when Sheriff Cochran received a telegram from a Mr. Pennell, of Asheville, asking about the negro. The sheriff took that as a sufficient ' hint to move his prisoner. He didn’t know Mr. Pennell—or what he want ed. Doubts Guilt. Sheriff Cochran says that he doubts seriously that Mansel knows anything of the crime with which he is charged. The negro, a young boy, is frightened almost out of his wits, the sheriff says, and is apparently not of the type which would attempt an attack. The iiegro told the sheriff thut he saw the young lady passing along the • street selling flowers, but had no more relation with her than other passers by. AVhite men, according to news paper advices, declare that Mansel was working for them two miles away from the scene of the attack at the time it is said to have occurred. Kerr Street Baptist Revival. If you have not been attending the revival meeting at Kerr Street Baptist Church you have been missing a great blessing. There was a large congregation to greet the singers and preacher again Monday night, and the Power of God was there to save sinners. The very atmosphere was filled with the power of God. Mr. Fry sang a solo entitled “The Golden Bells.” Mr. Payne, the evan gelist preached a great sermon from Genesis 32 :29: and He blessed him there. He said in part: The main thing that you and I need this night is a blessing from God. The disciples asked Jesus if He would re store the Kingdom to Israel at this time, and Jesus told them that they should receive power when the Holy Ghost had come upon them. What we need today is not greater numbers nor more money, but every sinner needs tlie Holy Spirit to come iuto his life. First, What was Jacob’s blessing? Jacob was forgiven of a great wrong. Jacob stole his brother's birthright, and Jacob went in and tried to de ceive his father by changing his voice. But he could not receive his father, nor can we doceeive God. The great est blessing that you and I could get tonight is a conscience void of offense ■ toward God and man. Second. What was the plucc? It was a place of humble confession. Many people don't want to confess tlieier sins. If we confess our sins God is faithful to forgive us of all our sins, and to cleanse us from all un righteousness. Third. Then this was a place of great trial. Listen! Jacob wrestled all night, and some tonight would be blessed if they would wrestle with God. This was an hour of deep need i with Jacob. Fourth. Is there such a place for i ns to be blessed? Yes, there is a place where we can get a blessing if ive a're willing to pay the price. So many are not willing to pay the price that their stubborn will keeps them from God. Oh that you Wight, break 1 thafvwifi. Jesus,.said that whosoever ' % / i. t Sesvice tonight at 7:30. Come and qelp us pray -for, sinners. < . A. ,T. CAIN, Pastor. Guernsey is often'culled “England's Glass,,lsland,” because of the immense quantity of glass used there in the cultivation of the tomato. THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE MOTHER CANNOT MARK HER CHILD , Her Activities and What She Sees Have No Edict on the Infant. Press Service of the North Carolina Tuberculosis Association. Many mothers will tell you that , they not only can but do. They will j cite all kinds of examples, telling you . how this one saw an accident and i the blood formed a wingpliaped pool. . When the child was born the next . day, it bad a birthmark—a red stain just like blood and its shape was that ,|of a butterfly. “1$ was due to the . sight which the mother’ had wit nessed. i Well—it was not! Birthmarks are little tumors made I up of blood vessels and they are pro , I duced by a defective development it \ I the circulatory system. The excite ment the mother may have felt had , nothing to do with the matter. Some mothers say that they are quite sure that because they Rpent i hours at the piano before the baby was born the child was a musician. Others read poetry in the hope that they will make their offspring poets. Many go to t'iie art galleries to study t the paintings in the hope that they will have children famed as artiste. Why is it that some mothers who do all these things have common-plnce children who 'nave no ear for music, no love for poetry, and are bored by art? And why is it that the son of 1 a woman who, by some unfortunate ! turn in affairs has to scrub .floors for a living and has to keep up the work until shortly before the baby arrives, does not have a mop-coraplex but may be singularly gifted as a sculptor? Let me tell you something. The moment the two genninative .cells united, a new life began and its char acteristics were all t'nere at that mo ment. They may be characteristics dominantly the mother’s or they may be those of the father; certainly they will be a mixture of qualities which came down from all the ancestors of both parents. A child may be more : like his great-great-greatgrandmother 1 t'aaii like either. No matter. He will have inherent talents at the mo- I ment of conception and if he is not a 1 member of a family with talent or previously active talent, all the hours spent at the piano will not make him a musician. What a terrible race of monsters we should have in the world if ma ternal emotions, aroused by the sights and accidents of tlie day. or if tier activities could “mark” the unborn, ■ helples infant! That it is impossible for a mottier to, “piark”. a child,, we . should be thankful. MARftifcl) WOMAN DECLARES LOYALTY FOR IIER LOVER , Weeps When Man She Ran Away With is Carted Off to Roads For Abduction. Lexington, Sept. 21.—Mary Iteid ; Earnhardt, the wife of S. R. Earn hardt, of this city, and mother of a ■ ninc-year-old girl, wept in jail this morning when Dock Ilall, who de serted his wife and children in Thomanville four months ngo and went with her to Roanoke, Va., was taken to the county roads to serve two years for abandonment. She declared her love for the Thomasville man and refused to re turn to her own people in the coun ty. Mrs 1 . Earnhardt was held as a ma terial witness here last week alter Hall had been bound to Superior court on an abduction charge. Rela tives and friends offered to provide bail, plead with her to accept free dom, but she declared she preferred to stay ! n jail near her lover, as serting she was guilty of as much wrong as he. Railroads and Bus Lines. Philadelphia Record. The interesting statement present ed to the public service commission yesterday by tlie Reading Company, in which announcement is made of its proposed plan to plaee busses on the "highways to meet existing competi tion from irresponsible sources, intro duces a phase of transportation not familiar hitherto in Pennsylvania, but which has reached an acute stage in some states, especially those of New England. Those acquainted wit’ the anthracite region, where the Read ing has a large number of small feed ers, whicfi have proved of great value in the development of that territory, will sympathize withi it in its declara tion that passenger service on these has been so seriously affected by the eompet ion of privately-owned busses that it is no longer profitable, and that if the company is tot continue to serve the public this can be better done by operatitng busses of its own on the highways than by running empty trains. Reference is made in the company’s statement to contemplated bus lines connecting Pottsville, Lykens, Tama qua and Mahanoy Plane, where there is a large mining population aud where bus service has already proved very popular. It is difficult to see how any reasonable objection can be made to such a suggestion it the com- j pany is to be expected to continue in operation as a passenger carrier. Cer tainly it can not be forced to run trains that arealready heavy losers Either the field must be surrendered entitrely to private competitors, or the company must be allowed to adopt a form of transportation that will en able it to give a cheaper service, with fair prospects of profit. The situation that exists in tlie 1 Schuylkill region is not comparable, of course, to that in Philadelphia terri tory, where a heavy commuting pop ulation places its chief reliance upon trains. But even here the new com petition has been felt, especially in summer, in away tthat cuts stiarply 1 into the company’s revenue. The step proposed by the Ueadiug seems the only logical aud sensible one. Either must be allowed to meet arise, or ■ ’they must"j>e ! r«iev«y from ’ sotfic ’of the obligations nowtplaced upon tliera.
