Contsolldaflon Of
Country School*.
Anderson's county board of educa
tion met yesterday morning in the of
fice of J. li. Felton, superintendent of
education. The meeting of the board
was called- for the purpose of con
sidering the advisibtllty of consoli
dating the Airy Springs, Mountain
Springs and Mount Airy schools. All
these schools aro located in the same
section and some believe that it would
be a splendid thing for the community
If they should be consolidated. How
ever, on the other hand some of th?
school patrons are opposed to the
plan and it was therefore decided at
yesterday's meeting that an election
would be ordered for the purpose of
giving all the patrons of the three
schools an opportunity to express
their prefprence.

Order Revoked
Concerning Cafe.
Sometime ago orders were issued
to the effect that hereafter the cafes
of the city munt be closed at midnight
each night. A storm of protest was
evoked at the time and Qjts Antonikos,
proprietor of the Piedmont cafe .se.
cared counsel. His attorneys' ' went
before members of the council and
convinced them that to issue such an
order was a mistake, and it was then
revoked. The cafes will now remain
open as long as they formerly did,
which was about 2 o'clock. *

Kiddles Elated
Over Vaudeville.
The children of Anderson and truth
to tell, many of the grown folks too.'
seem to be mighty eluted over the an

the regular motion pictures, and the'
children of the city are hard at work
at everything promising to yield the
coveted coin to enable them to see the
first show. Indications are that the
opening vaudeville nights will draw
bigger crowds than Anderson's motion
picture houses have yet been able to
show.

WORLD'S MARKETS CLOSED
TO AVOID COMPLETE RUIN
(Continued Prom First Page.)
believed New York would onco moro
attempt to absorb what tho'rest of the
world chose to thrust on lt. Tho de
cision, however, was not reached at a
meeting of the governing board ot the
exchange, but in a secluded. roora at
the office of J. P. Morgan & Company.
Like Father, Like Son.
Mr. Morgan, following the example
set by bis father, when be dfd so much
to stay the panic of 1907, met there a
group of the mightiest financiers in
New York. There was Opposition to
the suggestion - that the' ' exchange
should be closed. Many df the -ex
change governors who were In con
stant communication with the group
of men in Mr. Morgan's office, scoutea
the idea.
The debate went on behind, cloaod
doors, while all Wall street, through
which word of the meeting:'rapidly
had spread, waited anxiously for the
decision. On the floor of the exchange
wildly excited brokers rushed book
and forth, shouting. In almost every
brokerage house in the street there
were crowds of. men, some, eager for
the chance to buy stocks at low prices,
others in dread of disaster should thc
market be opened.
Decided to Clo H e. .
Then came the news that Germany
had declared a state of war in the
empire. Evon before this news the
decision had virtually been reached.
Word went forth that th? board of
governors had decided to close the
exchange.
Mr. Ely made the announcement. A
few minutes before ten ne mounted
the rostrum in the beard room. The
clamor instantly hushed. The brok
ers massed in a silent crowd, facing
him. AB the gong clanged for the op
ening, -Mr. Ely made his brief an
nouncement.
For en instant, vhile tbe signifi
cance of his words was sinking, there
was no sound. Then there came a
shout of relief.
? A second conference of bankers was
held late today in Mr. Morgan's office,
but no further action was decided up
on. During the day the foremost men
of Wall street kept in close, touch
with one another, in an effort to effect
an adjustment of the . situation as
speedil y as possible. It was eal d th nt
the present position of tho banks waa
unusually strong; that none was in
need of assistance and that nothing
of an alarming character need be ap
prehended, whatever the developments
in Europe. |
"Little Boord" Stays Open.
For half an hour the Consolidates
Stock Exchange, ucually known as 'the
"little board," was the only oflon se
curities market bf the world. The
Consolidated opens half ap hour ibe^
fore the New York: stock exchange. A
comparatively small amount ?f busi
ness was. done (during the flrat half
hour today, at prices which showed
only small changes.) Tho Consolidated
?closed as soon ss word came.that the
"big board" would,i not qpen.vi The
coffee exchange, the..produce exchange
and the metal exchange quickly for
low-d suit. ,
The Btock exchange took steps early
in the day .to discourage in every way
possible .tbe formation of ari outside
market for Its securities by,venture
some or Irresponsible traders.1 It Is

?MANY NEW HOMES

I West End Portion of City Is Rap.
idly Becoming a little City
Within Itself
.Marked progress is to be seen or.
every hand in Anderson and building
activity ls by no means confined to the
business district of the city. In all
parts of the city new homes are now
going up and houses appear, almost
ayer night, where none formerly stood.
The city ls not on n boom, but ls
making steady progress ahead and
tho population ls increasing at a very
rapid rate.
.Those who have been all over the
cjty within the past few days say that
one of .the most interesting portions
of the city ls West Ecnd. This part
of Anderson was practically nothing
but a waste spot until the laud was
?Ought some time ago by tho Ander
son Real Ectat?- and Investment Co.,
and they paid for the land exactly ten
times what lt brought ten ?years ago
and cut lt up loto SO lots and then be
gan to im pro ce Itt'! Since that timo,
they have sold 26 of the lots and now
steht houses have been erected und
m?e In course of construction. By r?a
son a? their selling method the com
pany 'isa enabled many a man to own
his 01 m home.
Th bi is merely one portion Of pro
gressive Anderson; Dosen s of other
sections are makins; equally as rapid
progress-and if tho present growth
continues, Anderson will be ? city of
40,000 population within the next five
years. . ; . . ..... ; ,
