THE CHATHAM RECORD
MRS. DOWNING DOWNS
GOBBLER
Mrs. J. M. Downing, of New Jer
sey, who with her husband has been
at the Hickory Mountain Gun club, i
on their annual outing in Chatham, j
will go back with one thing to boast
of. One day last week while hunt
ing on the W. J. Durham plantation,
which is a part of the Hickory
Mountain lease or the private lease j
of the Downings, shot a big gobbler. /
Her dog had set what she supposed j
was a covey of partridges, but to j
her surprise, a big gobbler flew UP- j
But the lady was not phased. She
lilted her gun and brought him
down.
Washington Letter
(Continued from page one)
“bobbed hair holders, pipe cleaners,
watch chains, ear reamers, shirt
sleeves adjusters, Ford repair parts,
tooth picks, bachelor buttons, cuff
links and toys to use while telephon
ing.” He thinks maybe the Govern
ment can save $5,000 under such a
plan.
A newspaper reportor took a roll
of congress and found Hoover and
Smith leading, ’but with far less than
a sizeable showing in either House.
Dr. Friedrich Wilhelm von Prittwitz
und Grammron, newly arrived Ger
man Ambassador, left his pretty
wife at home and went, spatted and
silk-hatted, to the White House on
his first call. Senator Neely of West
Virginia took a political slap at
Mr. Mellon by declaring that “an
ex-brewer” could never be enthusi
astic in dry law enforcement.
In the House, the census commit
tee completed plans for the next
census of population. It will be
taken in April instead of January,
as before, 1920, will cost about $35,-
000,000 and will give employment
to 8,000 clerks at Washington and
100,000 short-time field "enumera
tors. These figures include the ag
ricultural census, to be taken at the
same time, and a new census of dis
tribution, urged by business inter
ests.
Senator Dill, speaking for a tar
iff on lumber, told the Senate that
the suffering lumbermen of the
Northwest were sending 5,000 shin
gles down to congress to remind
them of their need. It was sugges
ted that with the shingles on hand
President Coolidge could supply the
woodshed.
