I ha been attendftig conventions for many years but I,$ave never seen any convention receive a more royal and hospitable reception than that received in your city. .),... . I believe that you have sent every "?tniaster that has attended this convention away a booster f jf Hick cry. I havfl found a spins o active cooperation among your c'ti'nes that moans that some day you wil have a city. There is a true spirit of hospitality in jour town that makes n visitor want to come back and this spirit is worth ' more to a . town than all the banks or commercial institutions. ..You" have a (great section and a jrrest 'people,' you have; a wonderful future''' that is apaprent to any stranger , that" will" spend' a day in your qtyvYoir have that .progressive -1 ptrit that makes 'for .progress, and that cooperation that is vitally neces sary tp succeed.' " ) ' ' - We visited many sections of your county j and find that your great spirjt of , cooperation and progress is not confined in your city, but ex tends .throughout . your, county;. You have wonderfully, developed farms, and progressive ' farmerj, and they arc becoming leaders not only in the tate, but in the south. A party of farmers from my own county visited many of your farm's recently and they came home and took half of the front page of my paper in boosting Citawba county. This means ome thing; in fact, means much. I am proud of the fact that I was bom irt this county and I have a personal pridn in this wonderful growth, and prosperity of your coun ty, and I shall continue to watch Jlickory and Catawba Count jcrovv. ft Is a great county: you have the beet people on earth and you have a really wonderful future before you. There 'are two sides to the railroad furidlng bill of !cour?,. One side is that if the roads get $500,000,000, they will begin repairing cars and adding 'new equipment, thus giving employment to many thousands of men. The other side is that the gov ernment has put the railroads before relief for farmers, thus showing secondary consideration to the prin cipal,; producers of the nation. Since both Toads and 'farmers are to be taken care of, ther.e is hope that prosperity, which Has been hanging around the comer, will come forth boldly and make everybody happy tgahv dPftl I Stim Andrews Lutherans , anL the Presbyterian Red Sox purpose to play for the championship n,ext Tuesday afternoon. These teams arc most heavily in debt for their uniforms, and if the crowd is appreciative, thcy ought to be helped along somewhat.

The old man made a pathetic picture with his kingdom' gone, but he lived long enough to see Serbia on the way to recovery of her former power and the people cf his rave more united than at any other time in modem history. He was a patriot. The textile workers accepted the worst time in the world to strike un less they wanted a long season of idleness vith the consequent destruc tion cf their organization.

They will meet the Kiwanians in a baseball game on Friday af ternoon, August 26, at Lenoir Col lege in the shank of the afternoon along about 5 p. m , immediately af ter the Presbyterian Red Six and St. Andrews Lutherans have their tilt. Capt. Jos. L. Murphy will lead the Indians on the warpath and ( apt Hugh P- William: will dctnul the fortress "for the Rotes. It ought to be a melee on both sides. The Kiwnnians have a star outfield in J. Monroe Allred, John Henry Patrick and Roy bernethy, who can get the low ones, and the Rotarians will send their skyscrapters after the high ones. These arc Kenneth Men- zies Joe Howard, and Bascom Black welder with Henry Tucker panting to get in. Murphy and Carver will form the battery for the agressors and the defenders will do battle behind Hugh Williams and Parson Sam Stroup. Naming the other stars is deferred for a later issue.

Reginald Pclham Bolton's suggest ion of subways 40O feet below the snrfarr. with Ir.nins running (50 miles an hour in straight lines as niadej public yesterday adds fresh food f,')r speculative reflection on New! York's rapid, transit of tomorrow. Thej fact that Mr. Bolton is a practical nn,l nvnnrioiiciMl pncinnnv. srivell to I thouvvht on what he is talking about, lcmovcs his idea measurably from the realm of idle dreams. Whether or not the city will, as he says, have to come to his plan is another matter. New York has been regaled with many visions of two story streets and of air line routes over roof tops. From a time when stages still were tunning in Broadway it has been wit- 1 often impossi ble schemes for multiplying overhead: and underground its passenger-carrying resources. If, Mr. Bolton's plan goes deeper than anv of its predecessors it is calculated also to fill a broader need. i, 11.: L ,1n(.lfn Once on a time tne uiimirfit? ucom. was to carry people "to Harlem in j 15 minutes." Now the tnin? is i fetch and carry daily millions from all points within five boroughs from all points, rather within the greater met ropolitan district. The tremendous swelling of the transit demand calls for, a corresponding magnitude in the scheme of supply.
