' - After ' an interval of several months your Hoosier correspondent would offer a few notes 'for publics tin. Up to this time we hsve had a very wet season. The fanners have been kpt out of their fields until in many fields the weeds are almost as high as 'the corn. But for a few days now it has been fair and warm. .and corn is growing. The hay crops -clover, millet and alfalfa are fine and is now being made. The wheat crop will be short, froze out badly during the winter. Oats will be fine. 1 recently spent a week in De troit, Mich., attending the annual convention of the Lutheran Synod. Synod was the guest of Christ's con gregation of which Rev. Fredrick Lineberger, a Gaston county boy, is the successful pastor. Detroit is the home of many auto mobile manufactures, and is grow ing by leaps and bounds. Real es Btate dealers say there are 60,000 men working in the city whose fam ilies are elsewhere because houses cannot be secured. While in Detroit your correspond ent crossed over the Detroit river into Canada. It was our first time to set foot on soil outside of the United States. There are many places of Interest in and around Detroit to claim the visitor's time. One of the chief of those interesting places is the plant of Henry Ford. Indeed a trip to Detroit is not complete without a visit to the Ford motor factory. Here visitors from all parts of the world, over 17,000 having been en tertained in a single month. It is impossible for me to give anything like a full and complete discription of this wonderful plant in one brief article. Yet to stand and see with one's own eyes the wonderful unique system of the di vision of labor in this great plant, gives a reasonable conception of bow Ford men, methods and ma chinery can produce 500,000 and more automobiles In a single year. One must first try to obtain some conception of the magnitude of the piani, laaen as a wnoie. The en tire - Detroit property comprises a plot of ground containing 276 acres ; there are 47.5 acres of floor space actually under roof. The average number of employes Is about 80,000 on the factory pay roll at one time. The wages and share of factory profits at the pres ent time average $3,000,000 per month. They work in three shifts. eight hours per day. To the visitor, the most Interest ing department in the whole factory is the final assembly. In this di vision, all the assembled units meet the assembly conveyor at the point wnere they are needed. At the start of the track a front axle unit, a rear axle unit and a frame unit are assembled. This assembly is then started In motion by means of a chain conveyor, and as it moves down the room at a constant sneed of eight feet per minute, each mas adds 6ne part- to the growing chas sis or does one operation which Is assigned to him, so that when the chassis reaches the end of the line. it is ready to run on its own power and one leaves this point every 27 seconds! Everywhere the visitor is Impress ed with the sanitary conditions of the plant. There is a department. enrolling 500 men, whose duties are to keep the floors swept clean, the windows washed, in fact to keep sanitary conditions surrounding the workmen as nearly perfect as possible. Of course every one has read of the Ford profit sharing plan, , by which he shares profits with t&e employes. No one is paid less than $5 per day after six months servi ces with the company. Again we say a wonderfully in teresting plant. And your humble scribe was very glad of the opportu nity to be shown through. B. L. STROLP. Colburn.

It is the motoring season. It is the vacation season and the touring sea son. It is the time to buy the new car. In the Chandler Type 17 you buy a car tested and proven, a car with nearly four years of refinement and development back of it A car free from experimentation too, a car of which thousands have gone into use on American roads in the past six months. The Chandler does not introduce mid-season models. Chandler leads, and Type 17 announced January 1st is distinctly the car of the year. There has been no occasion to modify it, no opportunity to improve it, no need to call it by a new name.

Washington. July 12. North Carolina Democrats are expected to contribute something like 50,000 for the Democratic campaign this year. At least National Committee man A. V. McLean, of Lumberton, hopes to raise approximately that much and McLean generally does what he attempts to do. The Stats raised something over $31,000 four years ago. If that much could be raised then Democrats handling the national campaign believe that 150,000 this year should be easy. John Karty Very 111. The following item from Wash ington under date of the 14 th Is of interest. Several years ago much was heard of Early but recently nothing had been heard of him. The dispatch says: John Early, the leper, who came to Washington ten or more years ago from Western North Carolina, and is confined in an isolated house in the District of Columbia, is seri ously ill. His condition is not re garded as alarming but he is quite sick. Dr. W. C. Fowler, In charge or contagious diseases for the local health department, has been treat ing Early for some time. He said the patient takes medicine on some occasions when he is unable to withstand the pain, although for a long time he did not do so. as he bad become a Christian scientist. Up to within a few years ago Early's name was constantly in the papers of the nation because of his escapades and his disease. He left Washington once and went to Seattle, but later came back here and for the last sev eral years has remained compara tively quiet. Early was born In tne mountains of North Carolina.

A Few Gastonians Still Survive. 'orkville News. When the York booster trip passed through Gastonla Wednesday those people opened their mouths so wide we were afraid they were going to get their gums sunburnt. "Tommy," said the fond mother, "Isn't it rather an extravagance to eat both butter and jam on your bread at the same time?" "No, mamma, it's economy," Tommy answered. .'The same piece of bread does for both." A woman with little wit sat at a public meeting between a bishop and a rabbi. She thought she would be clever, and said to the rabbi: "I feel as if I were a leaf between the Old and New Testaments." "Yes, madam." said the rabbi, "that page is usually a blank one."
