Valued at $321.CC3-The South
era in Operation. J f i.
of the Southern Cotton Mills
met at Bessemer City to inves
tieate the mill's affairs and take
some steps looking to the re
organization of the company
The following from Saturday's
Charlotte Observer gives the de
tails of the meeting: ;
MA majority of the creditors o
the Southern Cotton Mills met
at Bessemer City yesterday in
accordance with the;, plan an
nounced in .The Observer a few
days ago, to hear a report from
the - officers and ' decide npon
some course of action in con
nection with the present financial
situation ol the mill. Tbe state
ment. as read, showed a net in
debtedness of " about & $270,000
against the plant, valued on the
books at $321,000. v v ;
"Kesolutions were passed ap
pointing a committee to make
detailed inquiry into the condi
tion of the mills and to formu
late a reorganization : plan, the
report to be presented at another
meeting of the creditors to be
called later. ..
"It was the exressed sense of
the meeting that Mr. Ceasar
Cone, the present temporary re
ceiver, be made permanent re
ceiver it no adjustment ot tne
mill's affairs can be made with
out such action. The mill is al
ready in operation and will , be
continued under the manage
ment of Mr. Cone, who is also
operating the Odell Manufactor
ing Company at Concord.
"After the creditors of the
Southern Cotton Mills met, the
creditors of the Whetstone and
Vermont Mills- held meetings
and put their interests in the
bands of a committee, with in
structions similar to the reor
ganization committee appointed
for the Southern Cotton Mills.
"A number of the creditors
who had inspected the mills
stated thattbey are all in good
physical' condition. The opinV
ion prevails inai wuo.a rcorgan
ization and proper manage
ment all claims can be paid."

Sermon by Japanese.
Af I iafgeii congregation was
present Sunday night at Main
Street Methodist church to hear
Rev. K. SakatsQme. a native
Japanese minister who is making
tour kof tbis section ot toe
United States before returning
to his Jhome country to preach
to v his countrymen: He is a
graduate of Boston University
and goes back to JTapan to vdo
missionary work'1 under' the di
rection of the Methodist Church.
He.talkejiliotetestinglyrof-the
Japanese and their need of the
Christian religion. Buddhism,
Sbintoism - ? and Confucianism
have held sway in that country
for centuries but a half century
of Christianity and its influence,
said -the speaker,' h a. done
more towards enlightening and
if ting up the Japanese than all
other relieions combined His
own father.njother. brothers and
sisters are idol worshipers. He
compared the status of the
Americans ' and the Japanese
women and . gave cnnstianity
the credit for lifting the latter to
a height socially and intellectu
ally which they had never before
attained. Mr. Sakatsume's talk
was interesting and he .had the
close attention of his audience.
His enunciation is hardly as
good as that of the average Jap
anese student one hears lecture
in this country but his sense, of
humor is keen and his ideas of
the Christian religion and .what
it means correct. At the close
of the service a' collection was
taken to assist in defraying his
expenses on his return to Japan.

NOVEL CURE f 08 COLDS.
Healing Medication that Is Breath
- ed, Glvlag Qolck Relief
It seems tust as ridiculous to
put . medicine into tne stomacn
to cure a cold in tne bead or
lungs as it does to go out in the
rain if we want to keep dryi?
The fact that many people
nght in Gastonia i cough and
hawk and snaffle tor days and
weeks after they treat a cold
with the usual stomach dosing,
shows how valueless are the or
dirarv coueh and cold cures.
The neat way to cure a cold
in the head or a cough and ir
ritaticn in the throat and lungs,
is bv breathing Hyoniers med
icated air. Put a tew drops ol
Hvomet in the neat pocket in
haler that comes with every out
fit and breathe this Healing air
for a few times: and immediate
relief will be noted.- The -med
ication goes right to the spot
where the disease germs are lo
cated and renders them f harm
less in the future. i
At the same time the soothing
and ' healing effects of Hyomei
on the irritated mucous mem
brane give quicks relief, and the
cough or cold is broken up.
'The best evidence ot tne great
value of MHyomet m curing
coughs, colds and all bronchial
troubles us the fact that J. H.
Kennedy & Co, give an absolute
guarantee ;witb every outm tney
selL that if it does noLglve sat-
sfaction, the money) will be re
funded. ' ' f , A A
A complete Hyomei outfit.
consisting of a bottle of Hyomei,
the H inhaler and" a" medicine
drdpper, costs but $1, while ex
tra bottles of Hyomei, if needed,
can be obtained for only 50c.
