COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
HAVE l?U8Y SESSION.
Meeting of Farmer* Called to Organ-ize
Corn-Growers' Aesociat.on—
Several Road Matters Demand At-tention
of Board—Jurors tor Two
Terms of Court and Other Matters.
Tne monthly meeting of tha county
commtes.oners Mou-ay and /est^rd-y
was, one of the ousiest and most im-portaut
sessions held in recent
mou.hi. in addition to the court
house proposition and other speoa
wauers, tuere was a lar^e ajioant
of routine Dusiness. All the mem-bers
of tne board were preo-nt.
A ca.l was issued for a meeting
of Gu.lford farmers to i.e he d in the
couit house on Saturday, January 1,
l»lu, for the purpose of or,janiz.i.g a
permanent .corn-^ro ,v in^ assoc.auon,
the organization to work in conjunc-tion
witn tae state department of ag-ricul-
ure under general ruKs formu-lated
by the national agricu.tural de-partment.
Similar! organizations in
othe.- S2ction8 of the country ha\e
been fruitful of 'grat.fying results,
and it is hoped that all GuLford
farmers interested in the growing of
corn will unite w.th the local asso-ciation.
A request was received from the
committee of Oak Hi 1 public school
that tiis board appropriate $25 to re-pair
damages caus.d to the school
property by the opening of a road.
The board allowed $i5, this to be
paid upon the completion of the work
Under chapter 37 tf the spe.-ial
acts of the le,5is ature cf 1903, appli-cation
was made for $20 for the
burial expenses of William J. Hines
and the same was granted.
The board fixed the price of pork
for the ensuing year at 9 cents a
pound and authorized the keeper of
the home for the aged and infirm to
purchase 2,000 pounds, the hoss not
to excead 300 pounds in wei;ht each.
J. S. Kinley, of High Point, was
authorized to provide from his store
provisions to tha amount of $3 a
month for Carey Robbing and his four
children.
The monthly allowance to H. E.
Clemens was dis ontinued on account
of h'.a having gone to the county
home. The allowance to E. L. Cul-broth
was also dis ontinued.
The annual appropriation of $50
heretofore made to the North Caro-lina
Children's Home Society was
continued.
The board instructsd its attorney
to draft suitable resolutions to siow
the desire of the county to co-operate
with the officers of tie government
of the United States in providing the
county with better mail facilities. It
is understood that the postal author-ities
are preparing to make a map of
the rural routes of the county, show-ing
accurate directio.is, exact dis
tance3 from given points, etc., with
a view to giving a complete rural
free delivery service.
W. W. Whittington was re-elected
superintendent of thj county home
for 1910 at a sa'ary of $400 for him-self
and $60 for hl3 wife.
To Macadamize Road.
A delegation of Gullford College
people appeared be'ore the board and
asked that the road leading from
3uilford station to the co lsge be
macadamized. A portion of this road
has been graded ad the liberal peo-ple
of the community have subscrib-ed
$1,500 to defray the expense of
macadamizing. Alter hearing the
delegation, the board agreed to ac-cept
the proposition and voted to
macadamize the road.
The commissioners were Impressed
with the liberality of the Guilford
College people in agreeing to dafray
practically half the expense of the
•work, and doubtless this will be one
of the first roads to be macadamized
upon the expiration of the highway
commission.
Other Road Matters.
A petition was filed asking that a
public road be opened in High Point
township, beginning at J. R. Ridge'a
store, in the southern suburbs of the
city, and running about south with
the Asheboro and Randleman railro2d
to the Randolph county line.
Citizens of Fentress township filed
a petition asking for the opening of
a road beginning at the railroad
crossing south of Pleasant Garden
church and running to the public roa
at a point below Milton Davis' mill.
The board received a petition for
another road in Fentress township to
begin at W. C, Kirkman's mail box
and to run on a line between W. C.
and W. D. Kirkman and between H.
L. Hanner and A. Ford to the road
leading from J. C. Kennett's to the
macadam road.
The opening of a new public road
across the lands of Ellen Williams,
in Sumner township, not being satis-factory
to her, and the board having
failed to agree with her as to the
benefits and damages, the sheriff was
directed to summon freeholders as
lrovided by law to assess the bene-fits
and damages and make a report
to the board.
Petit'ons for two new roads In
Fentress township were granted in
part and rejected in part.

THE COURT HOUSE MATTER.
County Will Not Trade Property-
Improvements Contemplated.
The proposition looking to a re-moval
of the Guiiford county court
house and jail to iha Kee.ey Insti-tute
property has been abandoned,
at Isttt temporarily, oning to doubt
as to the ability cf the county to
give a cle^r title to its proprty, it
appearing that a portion of the court
aouse property had leen deeded to
the county with the stipulation that
it was to be used forsver for public
purposes. Parties who claim an
equity in this proparty intimated that,
unle-..3 they Were pa.d $1I),00J for
their rishts, they would Institute suit
for damages In the event a trade
was made for the removal of the
court house to a new site, and in
view of the fact that the parties who
proposed to purchase the property
did not care to buy an expensive law-suit,
th"> deal has teen declared off
for the time being.
The matter came up at the Sep-tem
er meeting o" the board of com-missioners,
when Ex-Sheriff J. F. Jor-dan
submitted a tentitive proposition
to buy the county property at a price
approximating $126,000 and sell for
court house and jail purposes the
Keeley Institute property, on West
Washington street, for about $65.-
.100. Ex-Sheriff Jordan held an op-tion
oi the Keeley property and had
a purchaser for the court houss prop-erty.
Desplts its importance to the peo-ple,
comparatively little Interest was
manifested in the matter, the public
as a whole assuming an air of appar-ent
indifference. In conformity with
the law, the commissioners advertised
the proposition, the advertisement
statin T that action would be taken at
the December meeting of ths board.
At t ie meeting, of th9 commissionrs
Mond-j ex-Rherlff Jordan stated that
he xould not accept the county's prop-erty
un'ess a clear title siould be
guaranteed, whereupon the matter
was dropped.
The county authorities are adver-tent
to the fact that the court housn
has outgrown the demands of the
public business, despite the fact that
it was enlarged only a few ysars ago,
and since a new court house is not
to be built on a new location. It is
not iTip-obable that extensive alter-ations
will be made on the present
struc ure In the near future. While
no plans have been formulated. It Is
probable that the interior will be re-modeled,
in order to provids more
room, and it is poss ble that an addi-tion
may be built, the improvements
giving the building modern con.eni-enc3
3 it does not possess at the pres-ent
time.
C. A. Bray Visits Big New York Sav-ings
Banks.
C A. Bray, president of the Home
Savings Bank, of Greensboro, spent
three days of last week in the city
of New York where he visited the
Bowery Savings Bank, the largest
savings bank in the world. Mr. Bray
was taken in charge by Mr. Joseph
G. Liddle, secretary of this institu-tion
who showed him through the
bank while everything was in opera-tion,
and was accorded the most
courteous treatment by the heads of
every department. The deposits of
this bank are over $107,000,000.
Mr. Bray next visited the Emigrant
Industrial Savings Bank, which is a
close second to the Bowery Savings
Bank, with over $96,000,000 on depos-it.
Here Mr. Bray was taken in
enrage by John S. Daly and shown
over the bank while everything was
in operation.
It is a great sight to see these
banks at work and think about the
immense amount of money they han-dle
and control. These two institu-tions
are mutual savings banks wit!,
not a dollar of capital stock and over
$203,000,000 on deposit; yet they are
recognized as two of the safest insti-tutions
in America. Their safety Is
not based on their capital, but basQ.1
on the soundness of their invest-ments.
They invest their money In
real estate first mortgages and gilt-edge
bonds, which, after all, are the
bed-rock securities of America.
The Home Savings Bank, of Greens-boro,
Is pursuing identically the same
policies as these institutions, being
an exclusive Savings Bank, and in-vesting
Its money in gilt-edge first
mortgages and bonds.

SUNDAY CLOSING ORDINANCE.
Matter Considered at Meeting of Com-mittee
Monday Night.
A meeting of the aldermanlc com-mittee
and a numoer of citizens was
held in tne council chamber of the
city hall Aiouday ni&ht to consider
a proposed ordinance looking to a
more strict observance cf the Sabbath
in urreenaboro, and U appears that
the ordinance, em^ra.ing what the
profane refer to as the "blue laws,"
wi.i be forma.iy adopted at the regu-lar
meet.ng of ths aiuermen Friday
afternoon. Meeting w.th the commit-tee
.vlo.iday nignt ware delegations of
ministers and dru^g.sts and a num-ber
of otner interest d citizens.
Ex- udge T. J. bh-w, city attorney,
read the ordinance as amended and
explained tne prov.s ons. The ordi-nance,
if adopted, will closa all soft
drink es.ablishm.nt3 aad cigar stores
and will proniuit the sale of any ar-ticle
of mercnand-83 except, a neces-sity.
Restaurants w.ll be allowed to
serve meal6 only and hotels w.ll be
perm tied to sell > i ;ars to uona fide
guests. The ordinance does not pro-hibit
the sale of newsp-pers or the
running of street cars.
The drngg.ata who appeared before
the committee to prote t against cer-tain
sections of the ordinance affect-ing
their business were informed by
Jud^e Shaw that the invitation to
citizens to meet with the commiltee
did not include th se who had pro-tests
to make, saving the meeting
was called to hear suggestions and
not objections.
Mr. J. D. Helms, one of the drug-gists
before the committee, did not
hesitate to expre.s the onlnion that
the ordinance was a.med against the
druggists, and la pro.esting against
the al.e red discrimination suggested
that everything in town be closed up
and all secular occupations suspend-ed
on the Sabbalh. Mr. Heln s could
not see that it was ai y more of a
violation of the moral law for a man
to drop in his drag s ore after preach-ing
Sunday morn-ng for a coca cola
than to crank up his automobile and
go for a "joy ride." To this one of
the ministers present replied that he
did not believe a Christian man
would do either.
While the amended ordinance la no
nearly so drastic as the ordinance
originally introduced, it is apparent
that Its adoption wi l arouse consid-erable
opposition. For Instance, the
taxpayer who hel-s support the city
-,'ovc -nrcent and ha i been accustoc sd
to buying his cigars on Sunday may
object *o the disci nlnation which
permits the stranger in the city to
enjoy that luxury. The scoffer is
suggesting that. If it is wrong to
sell a cigar or a soft drink on Sun-day,
It is equa ly sinful to sell a
newsparer. He does not understand
why. If tae druggists, cigar dealers
and solt drink people are to be
closed up, the same law should not
apply to the strest cars, the automo-bile
garages and the livery stables.
WILL REMODEL DRUG STORE.
Improvements In Howard Gardner's
Place of Business.
Mr. Howard Gardner has approved
the plans and awarded the contracts
for remodeling and greatly beautify-ing
his already handsome drug store
on South Elm street, opposite the
postoffice. The woik is to begin lm-ined
ately after the rush of the holi-day
trade.
Wiien the plans adopted by Mr.
Gardner are carried out, his drug
store will be one of the prettiest
and most attractive in point of ar-rangements
in the South. Two en-trances
will be provided on Elm
street, but the real beauty of the
place will be on the Interior, where
elaborate decorations and fixtures
will be seen. Besides entirely new
fixtures, Mr. Gardner proposes to in-stall
a new and up to-date soda foun-tain
and a special department for his
flower and seed business, with cases
made especially to display this line,
with waich this store has met with
so much success. In the rear fancy
tables for ladles will be placed and,
according to Mr. Gardner, the store
will be made general headquarters for
both ladles and gentlemen waiting for
cars or wishing anything in the drug,
flower or seed line.

HOW TO 8PEND THE MONEY.
What Disposition to Make of Gufl
ford's Prize Money.
What disposition to make of the)
$1,000 recently awarded to Guilfoi*
county as the first prize for having
the best macadamized roads along the
route of the national automobile high-way
south of Roanoke, Va., Is a sah-je.-
t confronting the highway commis-
Bion, the money having been turned
over to that body by order of th*
county commissioners. The matter
was considered at the regular meet-ing
of the highway commission Mon-day,
and while no definite action was
taken, it is probable that the monar
will be used in the construction of a
piece of modern roadway.
It has been sugested that the money
be used toward the construction of a,
reinforced concrete bridge on one at"
the leading roads of the county.
A decision will hardly be reaches!
before next spring, since the high-way
commission is not contemplating
an expenditure of the money before
that time.
