Charlotte, N. C Before th
soldier cam to Camp Greene,
before It n known what sol
.4Uri were coming or from
what part of the country, there
wiijoma little apprehension
on the part of a few people at
least, leat disorderly conduct
on the part of even a small
proportion of the many thou
sands of men to be brought to
the camp would cause trouble
to the city. This Is mentioned
only to add emphasis to the re
markable and gratifying fact
that, with 14.000 men from half
a dozen states of tho North
west gathered In the -camp here,
no trouble whatever has been
caused the city by anything in
the nature of disorder. On the
other hand, the soldiers have
shown themselves to be clean,
uprlnht. Intelligent, high
minded gentlemen; men of edu
cation and culture and refine
ment; of soldierly bearing and
manly qualities. ChacJotte has
been profoundly Impressed with
the qualities and the conduct
of thee men, and It is a mat
ter of entliulastlc comment on
every hand In the city. It Is
perfectly appropriate and noth
ing but the truth to say that
the soldiers Teom the North
west several thousand miles
from home on their way to the
front have captured Charlotte
and Charlotte Is charmed and
delighted. Let those facts be
sent back home! The Chaclotte

A LIBERTY BOND HELPS
Starting today for 4 days only we present the Narrow Trail
the first of the Ince-Artcraft Hart releases. In this latest and most
novel Western every promise has been lived up to.
Hart puts all the punch in his powerful personality into the char
acter of "Ice" Harding, desperate highwayman and passionate
lover. Then there are new stunts, the big thrills, daredevil feats
put over with the realism and finish that only Tom lnce can
command.
