NEW SITE FOR CHURCH.

The members of the Lutheran
church of this city have been in
formed. by their pastor, Rev. P. D.
Brown, that D. E. Rhyme, a promin-
ent citizen of Lincolnton. had pres
ented the church with the sum of
$4,000 to be used in the purchase
of a new site and the erection of a
new edifice Recently the conere-
cation disposed of its property on
English street to the High Point
Hosiery mills, which will use it as
an Office building. The property of
the hosiery plant surrounds the
church building on three sides and
this fact led to the transaction.
Several sites are now being consider
ed by the Lutherans who will an.
nounce their selection within a few
days. Needless to state, the dona-
ton of the Lincolnton man was re-
ceived with much thankfulness by
the members of the local consresa.

The Sophs and Fresh quickly shot
to a tie during the first half, 1910.
Though steady playing was shown
throughout, no spectacular plays were
pulled"
When the whistle blew for the sec
ond half, the results soon changed.
TIL eSophs and Fresh quickly threw
two goals and were confident of win
ming when the Juniors came back at
them with superior teamwork and by a
series of snappy passes and throws
piled their score up to 81, allowing
the other side only one goal.
Fresh Rivers made several pretty
"shots" for the loses, as well as Rape
and Ford, while Strange did some good
defensive work. Ford, for the jun
iors, scored half their points, with
Green showing good work. Saunders,

Abundance Of Fresh Air and

RavaQes Of tuberculosis.
DANGER IN CLOSED WINDOWS.
National Tuberculosls Association,
which Sponsors the Annual Sale
Of Red Cross Christmas Seals,
Reports 10000 Deaths
Each Year From the
Disease.

People who live in the smaller towns
and on farms have great health ad-
vantage over the city jewellers in that
they have ever an abundant supply OF
fresh air and sunlight.
These two gifts of nature, so lavish
" bestowed, are not always appreclat-
"a TO their fullest extent. They are
two Of the strongest weapons against
the menace Of tuberculosis, or con-
sumption, az 1t is sometimes called.
But consumption Is not unknown In
the rural districts. The death rate is
sometimes as great in these sections as
IN the more crowded localities, chiefly
because of carelessness or Indifference
to laws Of health.
Few, indeed, are the farm houses
or the homes in the smaller cities and
villages that cannot have an outdoor
sleeping porch. On the contrary, we
often find that the windows of sleep
ing rooms In the home are shut tight
In the mistaken belief that night air
Is harmful.
This paves the way for disease, espe-
cially tuberculosis, which generally at
tacks the lungs.
White Plague Kills 10000 Year.
The white plague claimed 10000
lives last year in the United States.
More than LOCO, 900 Americans are suf-
fering from it today. These figures
are compiled from reports of experts
all over the country and sent to the
National tuberculosis Association, the
leading agency in the country to COM
bat this disease. This organization is
sponsor for the Red Cross Christmas
Seal sale, from which its financial sup
port is chiefly derived.
Al medical science has proved con-
sumption is both preventable and cura-
BILE. the suffering caused by this dis
ease is largely unnecessary. Most tu-
berculosis victims are between the
ages Of eighteen and fOrty-five.
Causes Half Billion Loss Annually.
These are the years when people
are most active, the years of their
greatest production. The snutfing out
OF these lives just when they are at
the height of their usefulness means
an annual loss to the country of near
" half a billion dollars.
Fresh air is the cheapest of medi-
tines. Outdoor sleeping porches are
not only for the sick. They help well
folks TO keep well, and the country
dweller can have this aid to healthy
uviog at far less Inconvenience than
his city neighbor.
You can help directly by seeing that
you and your family are living under
the most healtlfuI conditions possible.

PROMPT COAL BUYING
ESSENTIAL

From the drift Of the coal investiga-
ton in Washington, D. G., George T.
Bell, executive secretary Of the Nor
them West Virginia Coal Operators
Association today is certain that peo-
pie generally will make no mistake
in buying coal at once. The inquiry
has developed the fact that the COM
mittee investigating the industry Is
aware that the prices Of coal are nat
urally tended upwards because OF the
lack of production and lethergy in
early buying displayed by the people
of the country. On the other hand
the committee is bent on having rea-
sonably priced coal and does not want
to see the price soar as it fears may
happen should buying be deferred too
long.
The investigation of the industry Is
progressing nicely and the committee
cannot help being impressed with the
fact that the operators are free OF
any conspiracy or COORDINATION to boost
prices as Congressman Huddleston and
others charge. The industry is
"emerging clean" ON the proposition.
When Walker D. Hines, director
general Of railroads was on the stand
this week he made a rather vague
statement in which he admitted that
the situation was serious indeed, but
in his Judgment despite the disabilt-
ties of the railroads he, believes they
could handle coal so that the general
public could receive Its supply. Be-
cause of the uncertainty Of his state
ment United States Senator Walcott
of Delaware, asked Mr.. Hines II he
was lettin gthe impression out to the
investigators and the press that the
people need not worry about their
coal supply at the present time be-
cause he could assure them adequate
transportation later. The result is that
the impression is general that the
railroads will not be able to handle the
situation and prompt buying of coal
would be wise stand at this time.
M. R, Saint of the United States ship
ping board took the stand this week
and testified that in his judgment he
did not deem It wise to interfere with
the export trade in coal although it
may seem that the domestic situation
was little uncertain at this time.
The impression gathered is that there
will hardly be an embargo on. coal
shipments at least as far as the rec
concentrations Of the investigating
committee are concerned.
Testimony showed in practically all
regions less was being paid for coal
than what the government set as a
