There is a small insignificant fee required for the inspection of meats and milk but these require incuts will work no hardship to any persons living in the country having for sale farm products ot any kind. This inspection is ne cessarv in order that onlv heal thy cattle and pn re milk may be offered for sale and it will un doiibtedly result in a higher stan dard of both articles, which will mean better prices for the farmer With the hearty co-operation of our farmer friends we can make High Point a splendid market for absolutely everything that can be produced on the farms surround ing us, and we can in this way materially assist in making these farms hi,. lily profitable to the owners, as well as beautiful to the eye.

Let every busi ness man who has an interest in his town attend the meeting at Greensboro on Thurs day morning. If there is any change In the time of meeting announcement will be made. Make your arrangements to attend the meeting. THE PROWLER "Xo 1 am not against women's clubs" said the Prowler this morning as he came in with an invitation to attend a smoker at the P.achelor's Club. "I think they are good things and if the ladies pass the Time away simply talking it is good for them to meet together now and then. All of us see each cither too seldom at best and anything tfiat brings the people together such as a club does good. But if I was a wo man and belonged to a club 1 would make the meeting more helpful, domestically. You know there are those who belong to these clubs that could be of great help to each other in talking about the things that pertain to the house. Those who are good cooks should give the club the benefit of their knowledge and experience. Then there are those who are expert with the needle they could be of great help to some who have not yet learned to sew on a'button. In this way the clubs could be a means of helpful education. What would do more good than for a bunch of ladies to find out the recipe for making a nice dish of some kind and then go home and put it into practice. If we could have clubs like that it would not be long before all the men would insist on every female member of the family join ing a club. "How do you know that the ladies don't do these things now in their clubs?" "I don't know it. I can only judge from the popularity of the lnbs with the men folks. Now man is a selhsh animal an when anything is going on that contributes to his tastes and whims, he will show it in some way. With the majority of them the club is not popular although he would not object. "But man should not have his vvav in these thintrs it is none of his business. "Well, it is and it isn't." IMPORTANT MEETING. .Unless otherwise informed all autoists and those who are inter ested in securing the auto route from New York to Atlanta by High Point are urged to attend a meeting at Greensboro Thurs day morning at 9 o'clock. Those who have autos will probably go down and have room for others. This is a very important mat ter to High Point and we trust that there may be a large dele gation present. BIRTHDAY PARTY. Mr. and Mrs W. C. Koont gave avery nice little birthday party for their little daughter Su sie, last Friday evening, from 5 to 7 p. m. Ice cream, cake and fruits were served, much to the enjoyment of the little invited guests. (The table was beautifully deco rated. Miss A Hie Strickland Joined a party of young people today to spend a week or ten days at "Black Mountain. NEW ADS. THOMASVILLE ITEMS. Special from Thoniasville, by C. K. Thomas. July 26th. 1909- Sunday morn ing the New Main street Metho dist church doors were thrown open for the first time for public worship. For thirteen month the congregration has worshiped in the Opera House while the church was being built. Sunday morning Sunday School was held for the first time in the new church and the school had the largest attendance of the history of the church, the school was re-organized and new life was in jected into the entire school. At eleven o'clock the Thanksgiving Service was held ami addresses were made by Mr. Archibald Johnson, Rev. M. L. Kestler, Mr. F. S. Lambeth, Mr. C. F. Lam beth and the pastor, Rev. Parker Holmes, all of which were inter esting, a special program for the occasion had been previously ar ranged and was successfully car ried out. At the evening service the church was filled to overflow ing to hear the beloved pastor. Rev. Parker Holmes, preach his first sermon in the church which he was the prime factor in build ing and but for his efforts the church would not have been built for many years to come. At this service a collection was taken, and $400 was raised, which pays every cent of remaining indebted ness of the church and now it stands clear of all indebtedness, one of the handsomest churches in North Carolina, the pride of every citizen in the entire com munity. Next Sunday Bishop Jame Atkins, D. D., of Waynesville, will be in Thomasville and at 9 30 o'clock he will address 500 chil dren at the Sunday School service. At 1 1 o'clock he will preach the Dedicatory sermon and will dedicate the New Church at this service. Bishop Atkins will also preach at the evening service. The public, and especial ly every denomination in the town is cordially invited to attend every service, isext sunuay in Thomasville will be an eventful one and one long to be re membered. Sunday morning the Military Company returned from More head City, where they had been attending the State Encampment for the past week. Three of the Company made marksmen and a number made first class shots. They report a delightful time, they all behaved well made a good showing and received many compliments from the State of ficers. All in all Thomasville has company of which she is justly proud, and the next encampment they will make a great effort to be the best in the regiment. There are two cases of Pelle- gra in Thomasville, one a girl ten years old, who has it in advanced form, the other a lady about 25 years old and she has had it for two years. The phyhicians in charge will be glad to have any physician who is jnterested and would like to see the case, come and look at them as they are both typical cases. The Southern Power Company has completed its work in this AUNT JANE "Honey, I can't write, I only wish 1 could. It used to take a whole week for me to write a composition when 1 went to school at Springfield, nigh on to (10 years ago. But I see so many things going on these days that look so strange to me that 1 would like to cxprcs mvself sometimes. I can't help feeling uneasy as well as sorrv for the young people these days. Un 1 think hovv the mYU used to o and then see how they do now I just have to heave a si-h and hope for the best." 'When I was growing up it was considered an honor for a iil to help her mother around the house, no matter what it was. She was taught to cook, sew, make preserves, clean up the house and wash the dishes ; whenever it was found out that a girl did not do these things it was against her in the neighborhood and her chances for marrying was power ful slim. e thought that a girl who was no help to her mother would be less help to UT bus band, because her mother would likely put up more with her sh in comings. I don't understand the change. It certainly does not '".iM a gin any more attractive not to work. When all the in my day would come out meeting with their nice Ire Ills to hlv ironed gingham and calico dress es and their sunhomwi s v were a pretty set. Their com plexions were natural and pretty, their lips as red as a peach and they looked the nietnrp of l,,.-,ltl, Now it is very different--the powder and corset strings, feathers, and chewing gum have taken the place of these common sense things I speak of. "I do wish the girls would change." "Do you suppose they ever will Aunt Jane "I am afraid not, the world is getting far along and the thing they call style anil fashion seems to have them in their clutches. But hear me the world would be better off, if we could carry our children back and teach them a few of the old ways. 1 believe I am right." THE MIGHTY HAAG SHOWS COMING. The fifteenth trans continental tour of the mighty IIAAti RAILROAD SHOWS will be one lontr remembered by its friends and the public. For fif teen years the Haag Shows have traveled the country by wagons, every year enlarging the shows and adding new features until it has grown too large for wagons and is traveling this year on its own special trains of cars. All these years Mr. Haag has never broken a promise to the public and this year he has come with more shows, more clowns, more music and more fine horses than ever before. THE MKiHTY HAAG RAILROAD SHOWS will exhibit at High Point on August 9th. iMr, and Mrs. McCarthy have returned from an extended trip ' to Chicago and the West. MISCREANTS SHOOT I hree boys were loafing around the water tank on the Railroad between here and Trin ity, I 'hey had a pistol with them and .is a passenger train passed tlu v shot at one of the car windows. The report reached this office over the telephone from Mr I J I'arriss who was on the tram and he stated that the bullet came near killing a wo man. NOT IN BANKRUPTCY. In reference to the case of the ueenslioi o Furniture Co . the 1 ircensboio News Savs: "In the Cnited States District I ourt yesterday. Judge Boynl heard tht. final arguments in the case of ;m application of a receiv ership for the ( ireensboro Furni ture Company, lie appointed R. M. kecse, of this city, receiver, and authorized the receiver to continue work until the material now in process of manufacture was completed. His bond was fixed at S.ixxi. I his was the case in which the application was so bitterly fought by the defendant company. It is sincerely hoped that the receiver ship will work out the salvation of the company which, it is claim ed is perfectly solvent." This action which merely puts Mr. Reece temporarily in charge to ascertain the true condition of the plant seems to be agreeable to both sides. The appointment of Mr. Reece as receiver does not mean that the company is in bankruptcy. I he rain came in good time. Tt was badly needed on the farms and on the lawns and gardens. Sporting News CAROLINA ASSOCIATION. I he "Boys Wonder" came in to his own y esterday afternoon when he blanked the Spartans with three hits. And that v ictory put the Spin ners even with the Twjns for third place. A double header in (ireensboro this afternoon. hirst game call ed at p. m.

There are very lew pitchers in the league that have it on Mc Carthy of Anderson. If Brooklyn paid $uoo for Lee Myers, the Anderson shorty. Dr. Schmick must be worth $10,800 for Lee only plavs one position well while the Dr. plays nine just as well as Myers does short. National League. After holding down the Reds 4 to 2 yesterday for seven innings, Camnitz. Pittsburg's star pitcher, weakened and was hammered off the rubber and the Cincinnatti's won, f to 4. That defeat put the Cubs the nearest they have been to the Pirates in six weeks. Mike Donlin says he hasn't come to any dealings with the Phila. club as yet in reference to his becoming manager. The New York and Boston teams played seventeen innings to a tie yesterday, 3 and 3, which is the National League record for this season. Ames did the twirl ing for the Gothamitcs and Mat tern was on the rubber for the Beaneaters. Ames had a shade the better of the contest. t DEAR MADAM: A careful comparison X of style, quality and value t t reveals the indisputable X t fact that this store has no X competition.
