ing the exposition if they can ar
range their schedules.
The exposition will run for six big
nights. and indications now point TO
the biggest and best exposition ever
held in the city.
Decorators have been at work at
the warehouse for about month plac-
ing festoons, banners ana pooth ueco-
rations. Those who have seen the
displays, now virtually complete, say
they are by far the best and most at
tractive ever seen here. This is es-
.pecially true of the arrangements
for the exhibit spaces.
D. C. Loughlin, manager OF the eX-
position, said today all of the material
used in the decorations was entirely
new and was being used for the tlrst
time in the local warehouse. Inc
work is being done by the Finch De-
corating Company, of Winston-Salem
which has had eight men on the Jop
for the past several weeks erecting
the displays. 1t will be the most col
orful exhibit of brilliance the city has
yet seen.
There will be many new features at
the exposition.
Approximately so exhibit spaces
have been taken by local merchants.
and other business concerns, and all
of them are arranging their displays.
Large spaces have been assigned to
automobile dealers and others, and
many new models of 1886 motor cars
will be seen on the floors.
An elaborate array of circus acts
have been signed for, and these will
be offered each night. There are to
be ten separate and distinct acts, Mr..
Loughlin said today
A new feature of the exposition
will be the Amateur Hour to be given
as the first number on the program
each evening. This will consist Of
local talent offered in many differ
ent kinds of songs, dances and stunts
and prizes will be given nightly for
the best competitors. In addition, a
grand prize will be presented on Fri
day night. Sam Afford is in charge
of this program.
Another big feature will be the styls
show on Friday night, in which Leg
gett Department Store and Efird De-
partment Store will furnish the dis
plays, all shown by models of attrac-
tive young women of the city. ]. S
Evans represents the Legion post as
chairman of this committee.
Bubbles Becker and his NBC radio
orchestra will furnish the music every
evening for the circus acts, the anna
teur hour and the dancing to follow.
Dancing will be a feature of the
program every evening, and in the
past this has always attracted hun.
dreds of young and old couples to the
floor.
Many concessions have been let and
there will be plenty to eat and ar
abundance of amusements on every
hand for the visitors to the exposi
ton.
The entire community has cooper
ated in the plans for the exposition
this year, as it has on other occasions
and it gives promise of being the
biggest and best the Legion has ever
offered to the community and thi.
section.

Dor and equipment, taking the worst
roads first"
Delegations Appear.
Many delegations appeared before
the highway commission here this
week asking for various projects. AL
most without exception, these dele
cations found that the work they
were requesting had already been de-
cided upon and authorized and that
the highway forces have been waiting
only for better weather, Waynick said.
When they were assured that this
work would he done as soon as con-
ditions would permit, they were sat
isfied, he said.
"This was not true of new construc-
ton, of course, since we are being ask
ed to build at least ten times as many
new roads as we have money avail
able" Waynick said. "But when the
requests were confined to repairs and
betterments, we were able to show
that in almost every case we were
planning to do what they were ask
ing"

Chairman Samuel B. Hill, Democrat,
Washington. of the subcommittee,
said there was a possibility that Chair
man Doughton, Democrat, North
Carolina. of the full committee would
introduce the full measure Monday,
and that if so it would be taken up
probably Wednesday.
While the measure has been called
the $799, 100000 revenue bill, a num-
Der of changes made it impossible, it
was said, for legislators to announce
an exact estimate of the yield. Hill
said the figure would not be known
until the Treasury makes calculations
On the basis of the altered measure.
In answer to questions whether the
bill would balance the budget for or
binary government operations, he
said:
eve are not working for the de-
finite end of balancing the budget,
but we are hopeful that the revenue
will at least approximately balance
the budget"

Dental building was shown in March
of this year as compared with March
a year ago, the figures show with
SAC, 800 of the total building outlay in
March going to residential construc-
ton, while only 1881, 1913 was spent on
new residential building in March of
last year. The gain in non-residential
construction was IA per cent, since
$415,373 of the March building per-
mits were for this type of building as
compared with only $171,S53 in March
1885. A total of $214,630 was spent
this past month on additions, altera-

2S5 deaths, compared with 146 for the
same month Of the preceding year, a
gain of 139.
One of the more favorable features
of the report was a decrease in the
number of deaths of infants of less
than one year old, which showed a
drop Of from 495 to 463. The number
of maternal deaths decreased from 81
to Il.
Not single death was reported as
result of smallpox, measles or scar
let fever, while fatalities from whoop-
ing cough declined from 33 last March
to two for the same month of this
year.
Despite reports of an epidemic of
spinal menignitis in the State during
March, the deaths numbered only
eight from that cause, as compared
with two for March, 1885.
There were 33 suicides, a gain of
almost 100 per cent over the 10 deaths
from that cause for the preceding
March, whereas the number of hon.

"NOW ALL THE publicans and sin
ners were drawing near unto Jesus
to hear him" This should have been
the occasion for great joy on the part
of all truly religious folk. But instead
we read that "both the Pharisees and
the scribes murmured, saying, This
man receiveth sinners and eateth with
Them Here are the "elder brothers"
who are angry at the Fathers recep-
ton of the returning prodigals and re-
fuse to come in or join in the joy of
heaven and earth over the repentance
and forgiveness of sinners.
The Lost Sheep and Coin
To re5uke these self-righteous I'M
loving murmurers Jesus told the story
Of the lost sheep, the lost coin and the
lost son. What man of you having a
hundred sheep, and having lost one of
them, doth not leave the ninety and
nine in the wilderness, and go after
that which is lost, until he find it. -
Even if it be but a sheep that is lost
the shepherd heart rests not until the
lost is found. No matter how long it
takes, nor what effort it requires the
one per cent that is lost elicits one
hundred per cent of the shepherds in
terest and love. The only limit he sets
is until he find it." "And when he
hath found it he layeth it on his
shoulders rejoicing" There is no
scourging or murmuring for it's get
ting lost, only Joy. That is the way
it is in heaven when sinners repent.
These murmuring enemies of Jesus
will VThic
was Jesus point in the story of the
lost sheep and the lost coin.
The Los: Son
The picture he was painting of the
self-righteous Pharisees and scribes
came out in sharnest relief in his par
able of the Prodigal Son and the elder
brother "a certain man had two sons;
and the younger Of them said to his
father, give me the portion of thy
substance that falleth to me-" Here is
the sin of self-seeking that is the root
of most human ills. It is "Give me-
spirit of selfishness. There was nc
use to appeal to love of father or
home. These stood for restraints tC
freedom and must be cast aside. But
very shortly, in that far country OF
imagined freedom, the prodigal learn
ed that living as one likes soon en-
slaves him to his likes and that sin s
liberties are far more calling slavery
than loves restraints. "He came tc
himself and said. How many hired
servants of my fathers have bread
enough and to spare, and perish
here in hunger! I will arise and GO
to my father, and will say unto him,
Father, have sinned against heaven
and in thy sight: I am no more
worthy to be called thy son: make me
as one of thy hired servants"
"Give Me" VS.. s'Make Me-
Here was a genuine conversion, a
new ceature. The self-seeking "Give
me" has changed to the self-surren-
dered Make me- The father recog-
niged it as life from the dead: "This,
my son, was dead, and is alive again.
And they began to be merry" But
in this rejoicing the elder brother re-
fused to have any part. "He was an
cry and would not go in" Selfright-
eous, unloving, he nurmured against
his father and brother even as the
Pharisees and scribes were doing a.
