Dula’a Address To Woman’s Club ^“30-DAY PKWCESS Plus Walt Disney Cartoon,' NKEY MELODIES’ TURDAY— KEN MAYNARD and his Wonder Horse, “IWzan,'^ in Pocatello Kid This being my last time in the chair as president of the Wilkes- boro Woman’s Club, I wish to thank each one of you for your splendid cooperation during the two years that I have served. It has been such a pleasure to work with you, and to meet you social ly as well. My only regret is that I have not had more time to give to it. Our club is really just a young plant as yet, and so we must not be discouraged if our growth seems slow, for we know that its roots are reaching down deeper in the soil, insuring better fruit age in the years to come. It seems that women are just awakening to their power, and to the great opportunities that are to be had from federated clubs. Our state president, Mrs. Lath am says that “a club that does not keep abreast of the times de serves to die.” It is a significant fact that in spite of the depression, or per haps because of it. 14 new clubs we:^ federated in North Caro lina alone last year. We are banded together from “Murphy to Manteo” and na tionally from coast to coast. We are bringing about many needed reforms in legislation, ef fecting the welfare of women and children. With such leaders as Eleanor Roosevelt, Frances Perkins and Margaret Samger, we have only to follow, and it is a fine thing to know that we are a part of this great movement for good that is sweeping our country— a wonderful reformation may be ■the result if we give it our best. Our constructive criticism is helping to create a demand for fetter pictures, and we have at last convinced the producers that good pictures such as “David Harum” and “Little Women" are better drawing cards than bad sex pictures. ‘ Coming back to our own home town, We are becoming more civic conscious and our garden and home planting has made a fine showing. Our club has no angles but is well rounded out. for as our col lect says, we have taken time for all things and as we gather around our family chib table let us be thankful for club feder- I ation, and pledge ourselves a- new to its noble aspirations. Home Chair Team Beats Stony Point Home Chair Company base ball team made its sixth victory to one defeat by winning over Stony Point in a game here yes terday afternoon. Mullis went the whole /oute for the locals, allowing eight hits and five runs while the visitors used Jolly and Hpover in an ef fort to stem the tide of the home team’s sluggers. Home Chair Company touched the two pitch ers for 12 safeties and nine runs. The home team played a good brand of baseball, only 2 errors being chalked up- against tbeir work on the field while Stony Point was charged with five er rors. # - N JOLAN, Itafy . ^. jUifi BeoesB (afcevs), ^ win go to Iks U. & fat.

Winston-Salem, June Two young business women died beto early today when flames badly damaged tbeir rooming . house but four other occupants escap ed. ^ r- The women, ■ Miss Ethel Mes- sengin, 23, formerly of Raleigh, and Mias Audrey Elllen Angel, 28, native of North Sydney, Nova Scotia, were trapped in their second-story rooms and suffocated. The position of their bodies gave evidence that both had made attempts to escape but had been blocked by rapidly-spread ing flames. The home belonged to Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Carter,, who escaped from their downstairs rooms. H. C. Moore, who discovered the fire when curtains on his win dows caught, gave the alarm and, breaking a window in his pecond-etory room, went to a room occupied by Miss Mary Carter Nooe and rushed her over the roof to safety.

And finally, the main reason for my ignominious defeat is due to two facts: first, too many people voted against me and, secondly, not enough people vot ed for me.
