"The question to be an ! swered," said he, "is, how are we to build this hospital? If It was a cotton mill or some other institution that would pay a guaranteed divi dend of ten per cent 1 could raise the ! capital right here before we left this i building. This institution will pay ' more than a cash dividend. J re ; member a little crippled girl in a community where I used to live. Re cently 1 was back in that community at a picnic. 1 was talking to a girl I thought was a sister of the erippleil girl I had known. 'How is your crippled sister', 1 asked. She repli ed. I am the crippled one myself. I went away to a hospital in Philadel phia and underwent an operation. Now I am as sound as my sister.' Some man in the community had raised the money that made It possi ble for that girl to be straightened and made happy and useful for life. Don't you think his investment ! brought him a dividend worth more than cash? I'm sorry for the rich man who is selfish. He deuies him self the pleasure that comes from helping humanity. Gaston county can raise $25,000 of the amount needed and when we do the balance of the State will contribute the re mainder." Here the meeting was thrown open for a general discussion. Mr. A. L. Perdue made a short talk ;n favor of the establishment of tne hospital and gave instances where a little attention and an operation haT made the crooked straight and had given to society useful citizens. One of the most practical and en thusiastic talks of the evening was made by Mr. W. T. Rankin. He said in part: "We've been talking about this institution now for two or three years. It's time we were doing something. I can't tell you where the word orthopaedic came from but I can tell you where the orphanages come from and where this one is to come from if it is built. It is to come from a small beginning prompted by that spirit of self-sacrifice that has been the foundation stone of all tne orphanages we have. Mr. Babing ton, the prime mover in this project, has a piece of ground out near town. Let's go out there and put up a small building. Don't wait till we get $25,000. Put a good woman in charge of them. The Gastonia phy sicians, than whom there are no more patriotic or charitable people in the world, will give their services gladly and without charge. Make a small beginning. That has been tne history of all such institutions and we will have to start the same way." Mr. Rankin's talk was a very practi cal one and apparently struck a re sponsive chord in many quarters. Following Mr. Rankin's talk Miss Lillian Atkins rendered "The Holy City" as a violin solo. Rev. J. H. Henderlite made a short talk in which he heartily endorsed the movement and expressed the hope and belief that it would be es- J. B.

He "i "Seized" the point that, he feared, some had not caught that absolutely no provision is made for the orphan child of sound mind but defective body. All other class es are rrcvlded for. Suc'.i an insti tution is not only a great need but would bless those v ho were cared for and bring a blessing to those whose efforts brought about its establishment. Mr. Jordan stated that already $3,000 had been subscribed toward tho institution and added that a sub scription campaign would be inaug urated in the very near future to in crease this amount. A committee of 18 Gastonia busi ness men was appointed to formulate plans and carry on a campaign for the purpose of raising a fund for the institution. This committee met in the assembly room of the Armington hotel yesterday afternoon at five o'clock, organized and mapped out the work in the following manner: Each of the seven wards of the city was allotted to a sub-committee or two or three members of the original committee who will begin a cam paign at once. Every person in tne city will be given an opportunity to contribute to the erection of the Orthopaedic hospital, home and school. Mr. S. A. Robinson was named chairman and Mr. John L. Beal, sec retary of the genera! committee. Fol lowing are the members of each sub committee and its ward. First ward, east of Marietta and north of the Southern railroad, R. G. Rankin, J D. Moore and Dr. T. C. Quickel; sec ond ward, north of Southern rail road between Marietta and old city limit (Vance street), John L. Beal and Chas Ford; third ward, all of West Gastonia beyond Vance street, A. L. Perdue and R. B. Wilson; fourth ward, south of Southern rail road between Vance and Trenton streets, Carl Carpenter and Kenneth Babington; fifth ward, south of Southern railroad between Trenton and York streets, R. B. Babington, W. L. Halthis and W. Y. Warren; sixth ward, south of Southern rail road between York and Oakland streets, Fred L. Smyre, A. C. Jones and C. C. Armstrong; seventh ward, south of Southern railroad, oetween Oakland street and city limits, S. A. Robinson, G. B. Mason and J. H. Kennedy. This movement has the endorse ment of the people of the city and ."s a worthy cause. That the Gaston.'a people will contribute liberally to the cause goes without saying as her people have always done their part towards the support of other charlt ablo institutions. 1L 3C Big line of Kitchen Cabinets, In tension Tables and Dining Itoom Furniture at Gastonia Furniture Co.

Ideal Theatre hecuren Incase on Ituildiut; Occupied by Royal Cafe Kntiro Buildini ill bo I sed lor Picture Show Royal Cafe Will Occupy Half of Glenn lluihi ing IJarber Shop Makes Changes. As the result of a contract recent ly made between Mr. George E Haithcock, proprietor of the Koya: Cafe, and Mr. J. E. Simpson, owner and manager of the Ideal Theatre, Mr. Simpson secures a lease on the entire building now occupied by tne Royal Cafe. Carpenters began won; yesterday of converting this entire building into one room which will be used entirely by the picture show. Mr. Simpson, manager of the the atre, states that several thousand dollars will be expended in remodel ing this additional building in order that it may be used. When the worx is completed the theatre will have a seating capacity of six hundred, four hundred of this number will be plac ed on the first floor. The balcony will be fitted up in the same manner as the main floor and will be in ev ery way as pleasant and comfortable as any part of the theatre. Another improvement that will be made in the theatre will be the in stallation of a new and modern ven tilating system. By this equipment, which has been purchased at consid erable cost, the atmosphere in tne building will be cahnged every two or three minutes. Besides the score or more of oscillating wall fans there will be installed two huge ex haust fans in order that the theatre may be kept cool and pleasant. When the remodeling work has been completed, which will be done as quickly as possible, Gastonia will have a moving picture theatre as good as the best in the State. Mr. Simpson states that this change :s made because more floor space is needed to accommodate the many Ideal movie patrons. The Royal Cafe will be moved from its present location to tne Glenn building on Main street next door to the Robinson Shoe Co., now occupied by Pearson & Adams ton- sorial parlors. The cafe will occupy the eastern half of this building, which is now being remodeled and put in first-class condition. Because of its ideal location this cafe will con tinue to be one of Gastonia's popular restaurants. Because of this change in the Roy al Cafe, Pearson & Adams barber ! shop, which has heretofore occupied the entire first floor of the Gleen building, will make some changes in the arrangement of their fixtures I and equipment and will occupy only the western half of the building. A partition will be run entirely througn the building, making two separate store rooms. There have been no changes made in any of the businesses and they will all continue under the same management as before.
