HOW I BROKE

H By RONALD COLMAN
(Featured with \ ,unu Beaky in "The
Winning of Barbara Worth" at the
Concord Theatre).
I 1 suppose this is just another of
those things that must be blamed on
the late lamented conflict. Like t’.te

say that was when I "broke in” to the

VITAL STATISTICS
TOR CONCORD SHOW
JANUARY INCREASE
Forty-Eight Babes Reported
in January But All of;
t Them Were Not Born iuj
That Month.
Vital statistic* covered in reports
~ submitted to W. M. Sherrill, registrar
I for Concord, show an increase both in
births and deaths for January. 1927.
over January. 1926. Reports sub
, mitted by five physicians recorded 16
( birth* during last morttli aa against
’ only four submitted for January. 1920.
Thriteen deaths were reported in
January. 1926, Mr. Sherrill's figures
show, whereas 20 were reported for
” last month.
Forty-eight births in all were sub
mitted by physicians in their Janu- j
ary report but only sixteen of tliese j
occurred in January. Fourteen oc- j
curred in December, two in Novem-1
her, one in October, three in Septem-1
her. two in August, three in June,!
four ■» May and three in April.
Twenty-seven deaths also were sub
mitted in the January report, one liav-:
iug oeeurred in October, two in No-1
\ emh«r, four in December and twenty j
in January.
Os the 27th deaths reported eleven |
were of male* and eight were of ne- i
groes.
' Heart nialadies caused the greatest |
number ot deaths of the 27, the report
shows, eight having died with diseases'
that affected the heart. Three died I
of pneumonia, three of influenza and
tour stillbirths were reported. The
other death* were caused by a variety
ol diseases and causes.
Os the 4.S babies reported, 12 were |
colored. Os the total 27 were males,
this being about the average increase
of males over females that prevailed;
throughout 1926, Mr. Sherrill stated.
Three illigitimate children were in
cluded in the 4S. two of them being
negroes. Two sets of twins were in
cluded, also, all beiug white.
Beginning wirti the January report,
Mr. Sherrill plan* to have published
each month the name* of legitimate
babies reported to him by physicians.
"I think the public will be interested,”
Mr. Sherrill stated, "because a number
of persons have asked that this be
done.
"Barents ivbo fail to find in the
-list each month t'ie names of children
horn to them will understand that
those omitted names have not been
.reported to me. They should urge j
attending physicians to make their r*>-j
ports in full each luuiith. In most |
cities in North Carolina and other]
states, this report is carried in full ]
weekly or monthly and various re
quests received by me indicate that the
public ■here will be interested in lead
ing the list of legitimate children ro
isirted each month,'' He explained
tliut stillbirths would not be included.
Due to the 1 , fact that his January re
port covers so many mouthy, Mr. Sher
rill made public only the names of

ary. t The list follows :

LAST SERVICE OF THt

WELL ATTENDED

i Colored People of the!
City.
Tha Fraser revival serviced at the *

were well attended yesterday at the.
night seat being take*. ’>
The meetings will clone tonight wk’4
a meeting for colored people at tb*
court house, all- the local colored pM
tors co-operating. The Jubilee Silqpj
ers, whose rendition of spiritual iaj
so heartily commended, wilp sing toy
night, and Rev. Mr. Fraaer says Mr,
is . looking forward to one of the baSK
meeting* of the entire campaign so-j
: night. )
j Yesterday Rev. E. Myere, pastor of j
| the Hartsell Mill Methodist Church,!
] was present and gave a stirring testVt
I inony, telling, the audiences of His defly
! nite belief iu divine healing. 1
At the night service a woman longJ
ileaf was prayed for and God instant-1
j ly restored her hearing ami gave her
! instant and complete deliverance from
rlieuiimtism. Jumping up nnd ilown*
i a« the audience looked on, she declared
! tlie pain entirely gone.
Tlie Concord Hotel meetings were
the best of the entire service. Mau
-1 agev Wencick had erected a platform.
: and changed the uppenrance of the
) auditorium, and Pile acoustic proper
ties wete perfect, everyone in tlie au
| dicnee hearing perfectly. Tlie great
, difficulty experience at the court liouse
j has been that the echo is so bad it
was hard to understand the speaker,
j A reusing vote of thanks was given'
'the hotel, while the audience last night
arose and- gave a splendid ovation to I
The Concord Tribune and its piiblisMwl
for so consistently carrying ncwwj
stories of the meetings. Many in the!
audience who had been healed of body,
ily diseases said they would ljgvofS
have heard of the meetings iiad Tl not
been for the Concord Tribune's splen
did attitude. Mr. Fraser paid a glow
ing tribute to the newspaper.
Tom Russell, a Concord soloist, and
Mrs. Edna Mae Herion. a member of
tlie Fraser lmrty. sang a duet, "Thg
Old Rugged Cross."
The Frasers amiotiueed that at t’iie
close of the meetings here they would
proceed to Spencer for a revival in a
tabernacle there. They liuve been
assured of very large audience* and,
I general co-operation. Many Salisbury,
j and Spencer people were in yextdc
| day's audience and greeted the ale
1 noil,leemenf with cheer*,
j Mr. Fraser last night paid a high,
j tribute to Rev. -E. Myers, of Concord
! who. he said, was the only minister
i of the gospel here to extend to hill*,
the right hand of fellowship. He also
publicly acknowledges! "the Christian,
courtesy” of l)r. Jesse Rowan, pastor
of the First l’resbyterian Churchy
whose efforts ut arousing interest in
Every Christian Evangelism he high-,
'.y commended, He said these were the
only tWo- pastors who had evinced in
tern-t in his meeting* here. He re
ported ninny conversions, and many
| ilttsanees of healing.
Till' expenses of the Fraser meet
ings here have beeu unusually high
for a brief campaign, but almost ail of
this they have borne themselves. The
total offerings at the court House, and
yesterday afternoon and evening at
the hotel, amounted to $31.12. This
amount is the smallest the Fraser*
have ever known in a city of this size,
but Mr. Fraser said that he "consid
ered it a blessed privilege to be enabled
by God to |>ay his o%y-n expenses be
muse of the many whouinil been ’born
i again' at the meetings." No "love
offering" or “free-will offering for the
Frasers" of any kind was taken during
the campaign.

i General Mecklenburg An
swers Protest of State War
l Mother. —Admits Resolu
tion Had Been Overlooked
! The'author of the "General'Meck
lenburg" article's carried each Sunday
! in the Charlotte Sunday Observer, ad
■ ilrcHsed an open statement to Mrs. W.
i D. Pemberton. of Concord, State War
Motor, in Sunday's issue of The Ob-.
server.
u his Ntatement '‘General Mcck'en
-1 hurt" admitted that he had overlooked
the fact that highways Nos. 10 and 20 j
•jave been iifmed for North Carolina
soldi?™ of _tbf World War and sug
gested that otßer highways not already |
named could be "named fqr some of
the civilian leaders who have had dia-j
tinguished parts te play in bringing
about our great system of highway*.” i
The article addressed to Mrs. Pem
berton reads:
Mrs. W. I). Pemberton,
State Wat Mother
■ My Dear Mrs. Pemberton: -
I bare no disposition to enter into
any contest or argument with you in
the matter of the proposal to name
'.ligh.way No. 10 for Governor Morrison
and highway No. 20 for Col. T. L.
Kirkpatrick. I would hasten to say,
however, that the proposal did not or
iginate with me; it was first made in
a bill introduced in the legislature
; more than a week ago and still pend
i ing. At least I have not noted any
! report that it haw been killed.
In your statement published in The
i Observer a day or two ago, under a
! Concord date line, you say “General
| Mecklenburg probably overlooked the
fact that, these highways were desig
j listed 'Old Hickory - aud 'Wildcat’ by
i the 1021 legislature." In this pre
j sumption, Mrs. Pemberton, you are
correct, but please pardon tbs stutc
j ment that I believe most iieoplc like
: wtsp had overlooked the fact.
Upon reading your statement I rc-
I called the action of the legislature six
| years ago in naming these highways.
Out I had overlooked it just as most
' Other people had. because the desoHl
■ tion ,io designating riein has been a
j dead letter. The highways have never
j been generally known as the “Old
- Hickory” and the "Wildcat." They
haver been generally referred to as
naitc 10 and route 20 by the public.
! However, we have other important
highways that have not beeen named
1 : for our Wor d War heroes which
1 mig'lit be named for some of the civjl
; ian leaders who have Iwd distinguished
parts to play in bringing about our
great system jjf highways

So entirely different and Springlike are the new .j '
hats, that to see them is to want to immediately
discard the Winter hat for one of these.
It may be a small, a medium, or a large hat, but the
crown must be of medium height, as all Spring hats
are. Colors, combinations and trimmings are all
accurate forecasts of prevailing styles for months
to come.
