NOBLE SPIRIT GOES TO
THE FATHER OF US ALL
BELOVED PHYSICIAN FALLS
ON SLEEP.
The distressing news Saturday
afternoon that Dr. James A. Turner
was dead created a profound expres
sion of sympathy all over the city
and wherever he was known. Death
was due to heart failure, superin
duced by Bright's disease. Dr.
Turner was one of the ablest physi
cians in the south. Sunday after
noon a short funeral service was
held at the home on South Main
street, preparatory to sending the
remains to Siler City on the early
morning train Monday where they
were interred at the old home of
the deceased.
About sixty years ago Dr. Turner
first saw the light of the day among
the good people of Chatham county
where his boyhood days were very
profitably spent under most con
jenial surroundings. After reach
ing manhood he studied medicine
and after graduating naturally lo
cated in that section which held so
many things near and dear to him.
Realizing that opportunity offered a
broader field in his endeavors, Dr.
Turner located in High Point gome
twenty odd years ago and was soon
recognized at his worth, as one of
the best physicians anywhere, a
man who put his whole soul into
his work and tried to help his fellow
man who was afflicted. He built up
a fine practice here but with his
strenuous life found time to serve
the city in the capacity of alderman.
on the school board, city physician.
Dr. Turner was ulso largely instru-J
mental in creating cne orace oi tne
county physician.
In 1905 he married Miss Fan
nie Little.of Rockingham and to this
union was born one son, now eight
years of age.
In June of this year Dr. Turner
became sick and gradually went in
to a decline but he hung on to his
business with that courage and forti
tude that ever characterized his life..
He went to Jackson Springs iu the
hope of being benefitted but his con
dition became alaiming and he was
carried to Baltimore for consultation
with a specialist who held out little
encouragement, save absolute quiet
and rest away from his ususual sur
roundings. But his life was to be cut short
by an act of Divine Providence and
he peacefully passed away Saturday
afternoon.
Deceased was a .. man of strong
convictions and intensely in love
with his fellow man and naturally
his profession. He entered into his
woik of a lministenng to the sick
wun a devotion rarely found; their
pains were his pains, their suffering
a heart pang to him and he turned
loose all the forces within him to raise
from the bed of suffering those whom
had entrusted their lives to him.
He iiad a heart within him as big
as tut; man himself a heart that
bet in responsive unison to the
lever parched lips or the racking
pains of a poisoned body. His mis
sion was nobly carried out, a man
who found his highest duty in serv
ing his fellow man, a man that real
ly represented his profession in its
highest and noblest purpose. Dr.
Turner was afraid of no man or
thing and his strong convictions
at times classed him as peculiar) who
is not) but they were really the dross
in the fire of gold that in its finish
ed state shone so resplendent to
those who knew him best. Few
men there live who measured up so
perfectly to the true definition of a
MAN and here you have about
all the necessary qualifications of a
human being, created just a little
lower than the God of Abraham and
Isaac. He passed as he lived, not
afraid to meet his saviour honest.

A WILSON VICTORY

warning.
Washington, Sept. 1. No single
triamph of the Wilson administra
tion has occasioned as much favor
able comment in Washington as the
diplomatic victory which today
brought assurances from Germany
that the UnitedjStates demand for a
cessation of danger to Americans
from submarine warfare will be com
plied with in future. This assurance
from Germany is regarded here as
the end of serious complications
with Germany and is taken fo mean
in well-informed circles that there
will be no war with Germany.
The outcome is regarded as a sig
nal victory for President Wilson.

The self made man might some
times exercise more carp, in splpptind
his material.
Many a man claims to know the
dearest little wife in the world when
he really means the cheapest.
Many a man deludes himself with
the idea that he has the world at
his feet only to have his loot slip
and his opinion changes without ar
gument. Life is a game in which one man'
push is pitted against another man's
pull.
It is all right to believe onlv one
half of what you hear, but the
trouble is to know which half.
An agreeable disposition is a nice
thing, but some people are so easy
to get along with them.
Lots of people are constantly giv
ing advice, who apparently have no
earthly use for it themselves.
The easiest thing in the world to
make is a mistake, the next easiest
is trouble.

THE CATAMOUNTS SPIT
SCRATCH AND VOMIT
INCONSISTENCY PERSONIFIED
"Jim Jam" and "Puck" have belch
ed out the most damnable accusa
tions against the South and especial
ly Georgia on account of the lynch
ing of Frank and yet are guilty, in
their arcticles of attempting to incite
to deeds of violence, the very thing
they deplore in the Frank lynching.
It is a good thing they are talking
from" long distance." The Southern
people are at least just as good as
the northern people and a "dog-gone
sight better than these catamounts"
that spit out such venom against
our people. Better urse your own
sores and try to strengthen your de
praved minds.
