The dry period, which started ill April, has already caused a deficiency in rainfall for April and May of 5.18 inches: and of 3.67 j inches for the year. This figures is [lowered because of an excess of rain | during January and March. During the 41 days, but 43 of an incu of : rain has fallen in Ralejgh.

Kinston, May 24.- —Hope Kadkins. three, smokes a pipe. Nothing so mild as cfgaretfes fbr her. She is the youngest smoker in this section, perhaps iu the country, and is the only child of a negro couple living in the eastern part of this city- I Persons who saw- the child tod dling down the street near her par | ents' home yesterday investigated ’ and discovered she had been "at it" I since shortly before her second birthday. An uncle passed his pipe to Hope one day. He was diabolical ly mischievous. Instead of gasping and cringing, the girl took readily to the pipe and begged to keep it. Short ly afterward she was an habitual smoker. Her mother said she declin ed to have cigarettes and yelled for the pipe six or eight times daily. She has never been ill from the ef fects of tobacco. She declines cigars when the pipe is available. Hope draws, the line at cigarette tobacco iu her smoke bowl. Cut plug is her favorite. r fri AND ABOUT THE CITY h „ . ■/ 8 DANIEL C.

Another 100 per cent, convert to the value of newspaper publicity has been made by recent items which ap peared iu The Dally Tribune and The Concord Tunes. This new disciple to the ranks of publicity devotees is' L. V. Elliott, county register of deeds, who admits that he did not know before the val ue of newspaper advertising and news matter. Mr. Elliott is a convert in the strictest sense of that word, because he sees the results in on uncertain manner of a warning issued in the liapers several weeks ago to persons who fail to list their taxes at the proper time. .This warning stated that persons who failed to comply with the law in regard to listing taxes would be required to pay double tax when they appeared to make delin quent return. ‘•I’ll say the ad. and the story in your papers did the work." Mr. El liott stated to a representative of the papers this morning. "I am told that property owners are listing their taxes faster than they have done In years, and almost every day some one conics in my office and asks about the law. They don't want to pay the double tax. "While the fact lias been discussed all over the county familiarity with the law is no doubt due to publicity giveu it in your papers. I can see now that the advertisement anil news story which accompanied it. will mean a saving of hundreds of dollars to ■ tax payers and the county too. It costs heavily for the county to bau dle the dcl nqucnt tax returns, and it almost swamps me with work, se riously interferring with my regular duties." Thx listers are still on the job, Mr. Elliott added, and persons who have not done so should list their taxes with them at once. FEEL NEW RULING IS NOT NEEDED IN CITY Local Officers Just as Anxious ms the Federal Ones to Enforce Prohibi tion Law. T’je fact that Governor McLean and other State officials do not believe the new order of President Coolidge. directing that State, county and mu nicipal officers act as federal agents, will be lawful in this state, makes no difference in the enforcement of the prohibition law in Concord, one city official stated this morning. Iu North Carolina county anil mu nicipal officers are sworn to uphold the State laws as well as the laws of their respective counties and towns and North CRro ina has a State pro hibition law. j County and town officers In Con cord and Cabarrus have ever been active in the enforcement of the dry law. this official said, and to buck up 'his argument he pointed to the num ber of dry law violators who are tried in recorder's court and in Cabarrus Superior Court. All such cases, it was stated, are worked up by local officers, either city or county, while federal agents take their cases to federal court. Local federal agents have won en viable reputations, this official [minted out, yet it is a fact that sheriff's officers have made many arrests in the county for violations of the prohibi tion law. In making public the order of the President, which has been declared constitutional by Attorney General Sargent, administration officials ex plained that it will be tried only in California at present. In that state there is no local prohibition law and the .brunt of the work of enforcing the Volstead act rests with felerad agents. Training School Wins Another. Last Saturday's game between the Jackson Training School and Roberta Mill resulted in a ten-inning victory for the former by the score of 4 to 3. Lisk pitched a good game, allowing the visitors but four hits and receiv ed excellent support. For the school. Brown and Pickett played a great game, the former accepting nine out of ten chances.

LAYS FIRST BRICK FOR THE NEW PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Brick Was Laid Monday Afternoon at I:4s.—Brick Work Will Be Rushed During Summer. The first brick in the new First II Presbyterian Church here was laid Monday afternoon at 1:45. Excavation work for the new Church and its adjoining Sunday School build :ng, was begun Severn I weeks ago and fine progress has been made The brick and dirt taken from the site of the church has been used to fill streets and gulleys in various parts of the city, and in addition many persons re eeived dirt front the Church to till in their yards. Now that the brick work has been started it is planned to rush it dur ing the summer months. As a rule out door work is not seriouslyinter rupted by bad weather during the summer and for that reason, it is said, the contractors on the job hope to get most of* the outside work com pleted during the summer. COTTON REIGNS ON NILE. Huge Dam Will Supply Water For 280.00® More Acres. Geographic News Bulletin. Cotton is eoneeriie-j in two im portant events in Africa. Though the events have taken place on the same river, the Nile, they occur 1,- 300 miles from each other. In the pie-sha|>ed sector of Anglo- Egyptian Sudan, whose sides are outlined by the Blue Nile and the White Nile meeting at Khartum, the eotton acreage has been increased from 20,000 to 30,000 acres. A two mile dam at Hennar on the Blue Nile has just been completed. It creates a hike fifty miles long capable of ’ satisfying the thirst of 2,800 miles of irrigation canals. Yet 300.000 acres . Ls leas than 1 per cent of United i States' cotton-producing a tea. , While the country of the upper . Xily is going in for cotton, the delta . >f Nile, 1,300 miles away, is pre paring to restrict cotton growing. . The Government has ordered that I not more than onetird the arable I land be planted with cotton. It will . he Egypt's most important crop.
