GREEN Photographer Phone 147 Through the Woman' Betterment Association They Mare Accomplish ed Much Daring the Past Year and Are Planning Still Greater Things for the Future A Recapitulation of the Year's WorkAn Interest lng Account. (Reported for The Gaiette.) 1n reviewing the work of the Gas tonla Woman's Association for the betterment of schools and school conditions and for civic Improve ment, there come to mind many many things that have been accom pllshed and many ways In which this worthy band of noble women has been helpful. However, at this time only those Improvements Involving the expenditure of money are to be considered. After the auditorium was finished and we began to think of plays for raising revenue and for training the boys and girls, the greatest problem that confronted us was that or scenery. The school board had no fund from which it could help us, and we were at a loss to know which way to turn. But our per plexity was soon relieved when an appeal was made to the generous Betterment Association. By Its lib erality our auditorium Is well finish ed with scenery that is very credits ble to the cause. The well-ventilated, well-lighted auditorium was found to be very much too light on bright days. This the Betterment Association Improved very much by giving the windows a coat of soft green paint. Several of the rooms have been able to get shades, calcimine, and otherwise make their quarters more attractive by the help of the associa tion. After the last addition to the school building Gastoina was In the predicament of having a thirty thou sand dollar school house on a lot which was a series of gulleys a lot that had not the slightest evidence of having been improved since it was cut off from the original tract for school purposes. There was no fund from which the money could be drawn to make the improvements so much needed. The Betterment Association look ed into this matter and, believing in their untried capacities as well as In the community, they engaged Mr Leigh Colyer, of Charlotte, to draw plans for improving the grounds. They did not delay till the money could be in hand, but getting a loan from the First National Bank, they Dressed the work to a finish. The result has been marvelous. These good women, interested In the training of the children and bet tering conditions so as to make the training more effective, collected and paid from June 1909 to June 1910 more than $750. The latest improvement In tsve schools is the sanitary drinking fountains. Every one knows how germ-laden the public drinking cup is; so we are glad to abolish it for ever. Part of the expenses of these fountains will be borne by the worn en. One hundred dollars is their share and they are glad to pay it for It will Insure better health for our children. Not only the Central graded school, but all of the public schools in town will use them. The women hope to do more for the town Library this year than ever before. The civic department of the asso ciatlon has not been idle. Among other things which they have done was the suggestion to the merchants In town to provide themselves with garbage cans to be placed in front of their places of business. These have been of untold value. What have these efforts meant to Gastonia? In giving the education al history of the year 1909-1910, Mr. Charles L. Coon in an' open meeting before the Teachers' As sembly at Asheville in June made three references to the progress at Gastonia. When the report of the Gastonia Betterment Association was read in the State meeting on the same occasion, Miss Jessie Fields, superintendent of Page county. Iowa, was present as one of the chief speakers. Miss Fields com mented on the report and expressed the desire to have such workers in Page county. Here follow some of the things that- the association and citizens should undertake to provide for our schools: The grounds should be completed by dressing them up and turfing them. A fund should be created by which at least half of our school rooms could be renovated each summer. At chase equipment and supplies tor the different departments, if they are to be Improved and made effective. ' Gastonia should get away . from the point where she is spending Just enough on her schools to keep "soul and body" together. It is to 'be hoped that no one is discouraged to hear that work is Just begun. So we see that to progress In this great work we need money. There are still more and better things to be done. The ladles hope to realize a good ly turn from their Floral Fair which will take place as soon as the chrys anthemums are In bloom. A number of women have undertaken to raise the beautiful flowers and are meet ing with marked success. The fair will last two days and regular meals will be served. The doll, fancy work and candy booths promise to be exceedingly popular. It Is hoped that not only all of Gastonia, but the neighboring towns will join In the festivities incident to that occasion. ' d At rff ' "l had about given up hope, after nearly four years of suffering from a severe lung trouble,", writes Mrs. M. L. Dfe. of ClarkSTllle, Tenn. "Often the pain in my chest would be al most unbearable and I could not do any work, but Dr. King's New Dis covery has made me feel like a new person. Its the best medicine made for, the throat and lungs." Obstin ate coughs, stubborn colds, hay fe ver, la grippe, asthma, croup, bron chitis and hemorrhages, hoarseness add whooping cough, yield quickly to this wonderful medicine. Try it. 60o and $1.00. Trial bottles free. Guaranteed by all Druggists. ' John A, Dlx, of Washington coun ty, New York, was nominated for Governor Friday night by the State Democratic convention of New York State at Rochester. He is chairman of the State Democratic executive committee. The Call of the Blood for purification, finds voice in pim ples, boils, sallow complexion, a jaundiced look, moth patches and blotches on the skin, all signs of liver trouble. But Dr. King's New Life Pills make rich red blood; give clear skin, rosy cheeks, fine complex- Ion, health. Try them. 25c at all Druggists. Young Asheville Man Suicides in New York. Dr. Hubert B. Gudger, aged ecu of ex-Congressman J. j. G jdj.t r o. Asheville, committed suicl- Pun day In the CriJi rnuv. U .le; lu 'ew York city v cutting hts throat with a razor. He lived only ten min utes after committing the deed. His mother, who together with the fath er, had gone to New York to place the young physician in a sanitarium, was In the room with him at the time and made frantic efforts to pre vent his self-destruction. Dr. Gudg er was a graduate of the University of North Carolina and of the medi cal department of the University of Pennsylvania and made a splendid record, being second in a class of one hundred when he took the State examination. Overwork resulted in a nervous breakdown, which is as signed as the cause of his rash deed. Good results always follow the use of Foley Kidney Pills. They contain Just the ingredients neces sary to tone, strengthen and regulate the kidneys and bladder, and to cure backache. J. H. Kennedy ft Co. RAVAGES OP PELLAGRA. Takes Cognizance of Infantile Paral ysis and Pellagra as Diseases to Which the Flesh is Heir to Rec ord Shows 560 in the Former and lie in the Latter Class. Washington, Sept. 24. The mor tality report of the census bureau, covering investigations for 1909 takes cognizance on Infantile paral ysis and pellagra as diseases to which the flesh is heir. The record shows 569 in the former and 118 in the latter class. The statistics cover only slightly more than half of the population, extending only to States or cities which require the registration of deaths. As comparatively little of the area in which, pellagra is most prevalent is included in the registra tion section it is suggested that the report on that malady scarcely gives an adequate idea of its real ravages. Owing to the fact that the deaths of infantile paralysis were widely dis tributed the inference is drawn by the report that the disease exists either in epidemic or endemic form in many parts of the country. Worse Than Bullets. Bullets have often caused less suf fering to soldiers than the eczema. L. W. Harriman, Burlington, Me., got in the army, and suffered with, forty years. "But Bucklen's Arnica Salve cured me when all else failed," he writes. Greatest healer for Sores, Ulcers, Boils, Burns, Cuts, Wounds, Bruises and Piles. 25c at all Druggists. The building of The Times at Los Angeles, Cal., was wrecked by an ex plosion of dynamite early Saturday morning and destroyed by fire. Nineteen men perished and the property loss was half a million dol lars. Five of the bodies have been recovered up to yesterday. It is be lieved, and there is strong reason for that belief, that the deed was that of union printers. The Times had made a strong fight .for years against the typographical union and ran a non-union shop. For More Than Three Decades. Foley's Honey and Tar has been a household favorite for coughs, colds, and ailments of the throat, chest and lungs. Contains no opiates. J. H. Kennedy & Co. The Demon of The Air is the germ of LaGrlppe, that, breathed in, brings suffering to thousands. Its after effects are weakness, nervousness, lack of ap petite, energy and ambition, with disordered liver and kidneys. The greatest need then is Electric Bit ters, the splendid tonic, blood puri fier and regulator of Stomach, Liv er and Kidneys. Thousands have proved that they wonderfully strengthen the nerves, build up the system and restore health and good spirits after an attack of Grip. If suffering, try them. Only 60c. Per fect satisfaction guaranteed by all Druggists. Craig Will be Candidate for Gov ernor. One of the most influential Dem ocrats of the western part of the State and a close personal friend of Hon. Locke Craig, was in Raleigh Wednesday and authorizes the an nouncement that Mr. Craig will be a candidate for governor before the next Democratic State convention. This gentleman stated that Mr. Craig was reluctant to make a for mal announcement at such an early date, but in view of the letters and requests received by him .from every section insisting that he be a candi date, and that he should let his in tentions be known, he felt that it was his duty to his friends to say that his name would certainly be be fore the next Democratic' State con vention for the nomination. This gentleman also stated that It seemed to be the general opinion that Mr. Craig would be nominated without serious opposition two years hence. At Raleigh Saturday Editor Jose- phus Daniels was attacked by State Senator W. B. Jones and the two en gaged in a lively flst fight. The en counter grew out of editorials Dan iels had written about Jones and his father. Both were tried In the po lice court yesterday but Judgment was suspended in both cases.
