The truth of what he said as applied to tires is best sum med up today in this statement of fact: MORE PEOPLE RIDE ON GOODYEAR TIRES THAN ON ANY OTHER KIND. Os course there is a real reason.

New York, Jan. s.—After three months of Broadway night life dur ing which he ran through a small fortune, Jack De Young Gans, 25. of Little Rock. Ark., was arrested | tonight on charges of grand lar ceny and illegal possession of fire arms. .Complaint was made by a brokerage firm that he had purchased stock through them, presenting a worthless SIO,OOO check. ’ The police said Gans told hem he knew at the time he presented the check that he had only $75 in the bank, the last of $40,000 bequeathed him by a relative. Gains said he ex pected his brother-in-law, J- G. Illas, vicepresident of the Bankers Trust company of Little Bock, on which the check was drawn, to make it good, as he had done on former occasions. The brokers said t'.iey had lost $6,200 because of the bad check duo to a sudden decline in the stock pur | chased for Gans.

Special Dispatch to New York World j Washington, Jan. s.—President Coolidge. in a message to Congress; suggesting'the appropriation of SSO - today formally signified his ae- J eeptanoe of the invitation of the eoun- j cil of the League of Nations to ap point representatives on the prepara tory commission of disarmament. I which is scheduled to meet in Glneva ! February 15th. . The President earefuttp avoided committing the government of the 1 | United States beyond participation in , | the work of the preparatory com mis- j | sicn. At the same time he empha sized the importance of further lirni | tation of armaments and the need for . lifting the tax burdens which heavy j armaments entail. It is quite obvious from the lan- j guage used the the presidential anes-1 • sage that Mr. Coolidge is sticking! ■ closely to the agreement reached with j | Senator Borah and other leaders that j any action taken by the United States i government on the league invitation • makes it clear that it relates solely to the' preparatory work. Mr. Coolidge outlines in a general way the scope of the work of the pre • paratcry commission ns embodied in 1 the formal invitation and accompany • ing documents, but refrains from go • ing into a detailed discussion. I.ate Monday afternoon Rep. Temple, Republican of Pennsylvania. » introduced' a resolution providing for I the appropriation of $50,000 for this : purpose. The resolution was referred to the committee on foreign affairs of the House. 1 Senator Shipstead introduced a res olution, which was read to the* Senate : from the clerk's desk, making it a • condition of any treaty or treaties re sulting from the proposed Geneva con • ference that the nation* mutually agree to abolish military eonscrip , tion. TO FIGHT IMPORTING OF CUBAN WHISKEY Federal Administrator Will Throw Reserves Into Charleston Section- Charlotte, Jan. s.—Federal prohibi tion agents will make a mass attack in South Carolina. Rum-runners have been particular ly active in attempting to land Cuban whiskey near Charleston. Ben (\ Sharpe, federal administrator, de ! dined to state the points where agents are being massed, but it is under , stood that the movement of agents, which was begun last week, was con tinuing Monday. South Carolina has been short of agents, and it was j learned that the policy of the admin istration is to transfer many of the approximately 112 field agents gftive in this division from place to place where “dampness” occurs. The recent pub’ication of the analy sis of 100 samples of contraband, which showed that hootch was being made of poisons ranging from plain ; concentrated lye to sulphuris acid had a particularly deterrent effect on con sumers in this division, Mr. Sharpe said. It was explained that this is part of the policy to keep the public informed that “it is dangerous to drink.” Courts of the district will be well filled at the coming terms, it was de- i dared. Agents were active during , the Christmas holidays and 'liquor was j “hard to find” in most places where before it had been easy. The movement of agents southward con firms reports current here for some time that hootch was “plentiful” in that state. CHARLOTTE VETERANS OFFICE BEING PROBED : Evidence Now Being Collected by Civil Service Men as to Charges of Improper Conduct. » Charlotte. Jan. 5.—A mass of evi : dence relating to the charges of ir -1 regularity in connection with the North Carolina region office of the ( United States veterans bureau here has been collected by federal agents who arrived in the city from Wasli ’ ington four days ago, it was learned ’ today. Reports said that, two offi cials from the civil service commis sion are here making the inquiry. In ■he four days since their ar-1. . rival these officials have made prog ress in their investigation of the office . here, it was said. It was impossible. , I however to obtain details of the in- 1 formation these officials have col- \ lected. much of which, it was said. , I has been eonverted into affidavit form. 1 The names of the agents were not j made public. The investigation, it i was pointed out, is being made with 1 Cie greatest possible secrecy. Charges being investigated by these i officials were containued in doca- 1 ments said to have been sent to Wash- , ington the middle of the past week 1 for consideration by the civil service ] commission. No information could be gained 1 here today as to whether the infor- ] , mation collected by the investigators i here tended to prove or disapprove 1 the alleged charges. TIMES-TRIBUNE PENNS VD& !

SAVES 100,000 OF “NOBODY’S CHILDREN” Children Rescued From Poverty and Crime in London's Shuns. London, Jan. s.— One hundred thou ! Hand boys and yirls rescued from t*'ie poverty, crime, disease and vice of the , worst slums of London and firmly «anrte<l on the road to honest, healthy, 1 useful citizenship. ; This is marvelous story un folded by the announcement that the 100,000th child entered Dr. Barnardo’s | hemes Christmas Eve. I Some thirty years ajfo, when the : full value of Dr. Rarnardo* s great | work in be’half of the homeless chil -1 dren of London began to be appre i ciated. the laae W. T. Stead wrote | an article in the Review of Reviews ! in which he termed the work of the Raniardo homes the greatest practical : philanthropy the world ever has : known. I Since that time the work of the i Rarnardo homes has increased enor | raonsly. Today t’here are more than ! one hundred branches scattered over j London and in numerous other large I cities throughout the United King dom. Something like 8.000 destitute children are constantly being cared for in these institutions. To feed them costs more than one thousand dollars a day. Yet the entire scheme is supported by public subscriptions, which total between one and two mil lion dollars a year. The. doors of the toernes stand open night aiu( day for all children really friendless and destitute. No one with these qualifications is ever turned away. In one year young people from Berlin. Rio da Janeiro. Paris, Chicago, New York, New Orleans, Cape Town, Mexico. Constantinople, Russia, New Zealand and Syria. The children are taught useful trades in order that they may make their own, way in the world. Hun dreds of the boys have entered the British nayy and rtie mercantile ma rine. Thousands have been sent is emigrants to Canada and to Austra lia. by special arrangement with the governments of those dominions. Many of these have risen to wealth and in fluence in taeir new noines and it is a matter of record tiat at least one man now holding one of the highest public positions in western Canada landed in the Dominion as a “Bar nardo boy." The present year marks the fiftieth anniversary of the beginning of the Rarnardo homes. The way in which the philanthropy was started is in teresting. The founder. Dr. Thomas J. Rarnardo. an Irishman by birth, had at first no idea df becoming n philanthropist. But even while a struggling medical student in London his tendency for helping other people manifested itself, and the young em bryo physician started a sort of eve ning claws for boys and managed to coax several ragged little urchins to join it. When the sessions were over one evening the raggedest and most forlorn of the boys showed some re luctance about “going out into the night." He wanted to lie by the doctor’s fire. When asked where he lived and why he did not go home, the lad re sponded that he had no home. He told Dr. Rarnardo, too, that there were many other boys and girls that he knew that “didn’t live nowhere.” and volunteered to show his friend where his, unlucky little acquaintances spent their nig'.its in alleys, hallways and similar places that offered shel ter. The “cry of the children" sounded so loudly in the ears of Dr. Rarnardo that he immediately turned aside from the career of a medical man and threw his whole energy into the cause which USE PENNY COLUMN—-IT PAYS “Hogans Alley” CONCORD COTTON MARKET TUESDAY, JANUARY 5, 1926 Cotton it) Cotton Seed 52 j_2 300000000000000000000000 I Jewelry Stores If we had half your ! ! clocks to remind us our ! !
