There are others, but X have in mind the idea of Government aid for the rebuilding of the "slum" dwellings of the cities and the development of subsistence farms" for many city folks who, under our present industrial system, are unable to survive when off the payroll, except by charity. I know an increrasing number of men who have found their way to selfsupport in the depression by getting bold, of a piece of land with some sort or a house on it and so managing to get by, even when unemployed for two or three ven-rn "Rill workers haver.'t the means or the knowledge now to adopt that method of self-support. They have to he ? taught and to be financed; but un- ri less Government docs that, we shall If never have a permanent solution of our most important social problem, that of unemployment. HORRORS ... of war We speak of the horrors of war, but few moderns realize what a devastating effect the wars of ancient Cs times had. It was only about three hundred years ago. when the early colonists were beginning to settle America, that the Thirty Years War ravaged Germany until the population was reduced from 24,000,000 to less than 4,000,000. Not' all were killed in war, (f of course; most died of starvation. Utter lawlessness prevailed outside ge of the fortified cities. No person's sti life was safe, and canibalism was ac- th tually practiced, according to James th W. Gerard, former United States Am- (m bassador to Berlin. Human flesh was tiv even exposed for sale in the markets to of Heidelberg in 1648, said Mr. Go- jj< rard in a recent published statement! Polygamy was legalized, to repopu- pr late the land speedily. w< Ambition and religion wore at the i of root of the Thirty Years' War.

But I discovered the red squir- CI nils' hoard the other day in a corner fo cf a disused b' n loft, behind a pile foi of lumber and junk. There was at Li least a bushel of acorns and MJiory- no nuts laid away for winter fodder. joi Too bad human beings can't be as rei forehanded as the squirrels.

She couldn't explain lej them. A little later she was sur- an prised to see a mouse appear, ap- vel parenty out of nowhere, and perch on the hood of her car as she was dr. driving to town. When she pulled up sea in front of the postofflce the mouse inj ran hack, through the open windshield sa; and disappeared somewhere inside the re< car. lor As she is a sensible girl and not Ar afraid of mice, she investigated and me found that mother mouse had pulled vol enough of the stuffing out of the poi seat to make room for a nice little he nest, and there were six pink little bo blind baby mice inside of the seat! his The unfortunate mice were dropped asl into Shaker Fond, but the problem ] of mouse-proofing a Ford seat cush- thi ion is atill unsolved. shi tul FOXES . . . reds and grays sh< I have seen more red foxes this del year than in several years past, in it the vicinity of my farm. Neighbors en tell the same story. But the gray wb fox, which is the only native species eel in the United States, seems to he di3- on appearing in the North. Tu Every, red fox on thi3 continent or- sti iginally imported in George Wash- ga ington's youth, to furnish sport for < fox-hunters. The first were loosed on ve: Long Island; later some were brought loo to Maryland. Now there are red foxes cai everywhere east of the Mississippi, wi; and perhaps farther west. an It has been a prolific season for "w skunks, too.

Some weeks ago the general irnesaion was that North Carolina mid without doubt follow the lead the 33 states that have so far vot and go for repeal of the eight- I nth amendment. The anti-repeal 1 Iks Uier. got so busy that those who I ,d seen this state in the repeal col- I nn began to question their former 1 lief a. Now the repeal forces have 1 own wiiur hfo. with a counter of- I r.sive, even though a sort of onean war, which causes prophets to nd towards aarliae predictions.. Clyde R. Hoey and Judge E. Yates ebb, two of the "Shelby triumvite," have been active on the platrm. Cameron Morrison former Govnor and Senator, last week went on e air and will speak in other places is week against, repeal. Three ieadj Republicans, Jake 17. ?*", of larlotte. Senatorial candidate; Clifrd Frazier, Greensboro, candidate r Governor, and Charles A. Jonas, ncalnton, former congressman and w national committeeman, have had the "dry" forces, despite the lord of their party for several genltions. Cale K. Burgess, Raleigh, y leader, Dr. William Louis Pot eat, esident emeritus of Wake Forest liege, Dr. Henry Louis Smith, and imbers of other "dry" workers have ken to the platform. So far, Senator Robert R. Reynolds, 10 run on a platform for repeal, is i only repeal speaker of note. Last ek and this week he is covering 21 Lnts In 12 days with platform leches and visiitng numerous other ints for talks with small groups, id his speeches are apparently all ; repeal forces will provide, except ; appearance at noon November 3 E Postmaster General James A. Far- I r, national Democratic chairman I d spokesman for President Roose- I It. in Ralcieh. True former Governor O. Max Garer, now practicing law and repreiting tlie rayon industry, in Washjton, issued a statement recently ping he would vote for repeal. More :ent)y, Senator Josiah W. Bailey, ig secretary years ago of the N. C. itt-Saloon League, issued a state nt, giving his reasons why he will te for repeal. Governor Ehringhaus Luted to his earlier statement that is politically and personally dry, t is standing on the platform of i party, saying it stili stands, when ted about repeal. Repeal folks are taking the position it the prohibition amendment iuld never have been in the Constt:ion, in the first place, and that it >uld now be removed, so states may Lermine their own status* and that is a part of the President's recov i program, one 01 uie pianas on [ lich he was so overwhelmingly elLed. They claim it has no bearing the North Carolina liquor law, the rllngton Act, and the State may 11 remain as dry as a chip?lelly. Opponents of repeal see in the Notnbcr 1 election a sort of "Water>" In' that they believe, if the repeal |S rries in this State, the nest move fj II be repeal of the Turlington Act I i opening up North Carolina as et" territory.

Weaver suggests that a homplet list be made of all repairs neede and parts to be ordered for each ma chine. When all the material is ai sembled the repair work can b started.
