STEWART NEA Service Writer Washington, Jan. 11.—Most towns have two "sides,” a side where all the tony people hang out and a side where nobody can live and amount to much socially, Wellington is emphatically this way. > Tour address must read “Wash-1 ington Northwest” or you don’t "be- j long!'” A trip to Washington North east or Southeast is like journeying to an entirely different city. * • * Why Washington Southwest doesn’t i class with the northwestern district is -easy to understand. IPs the in dustrial section so far as the capital has one and naturally isn’t so pleas ant to live in. But accounting for the eastern half of town's social disrepute, except for a little stretch along the railroad yards isn’t so easy. It’s true that the houses there ob viously and practically without excep tion are those of people in very mod est circumstances, but why? Wash ington's crowded for room. Why hasn’t the classy part of it spread over into this perfectly available area? * * * Another thing, building marks the boundary "between the two I “sides.” It would seem as if swell people t+ould be attracted to put up fine homes in the vicinity of the historic edifice, tvith its fine grounds and pleasing obtlook. On the contrary, however, nobby Washington only goes as far east as tjie group of buildings including the chpitol, the Senate and house office buildings and the congressional liy brary and stop's there. It’s as If the capitol stopped it. J. LATE FARM NEVVg KkuM THE COUNTY AGENTS Greenville. N.

Every farmer is given directions on the selection, preparation, and fertilization of plant beds, ns well as directions for treating the seed against wild-fire and angular - leaf spot. Asheville, N. C., Jan. 9.—OP)— All roads in the lower Hominy com munity of Buncombe county will be named and made more attractive by tile planting of trees and flowers, ac cording to plans which have been worked out by members ofthe com, munity <+»b of that section.

C„ .Tan. !>.—OP)— An average of 49.02 bushels of corn per acre was made by members of the men's corn club in Lee county during the past season, complete records, based on the weight of the corn, show, reports County Agent E.

WHITENER NOT DEALING WITH BANK AND FILE RaV-igh Republicans' Obaerye That Executive Committee Will Do the | Meeting. Raleigh, Jan. 9.—Local Republi cans, especially member of the official family in Raleigh, do not controvert the contention of A. A. Whitener, of Hickory, that 80 per cent, of the rank and file of the party favors him j for national commmltteeman, but they | rather cynically observe that the state executive commmittee which meets next mnn.'.i in Durham does the elect- I ing. | Therein may be reckoning without ! one’s host. That is just about what the Whitener, Mebape, Tilley, Kluttz, and Hester insurgency, not to men . Una the most eminent kicker of thepi all, Mr. Butler, - means. Whitener’s shake with the committee is regarded an even one. He does not see why it should not be .kindly disposed to ward him and he believes it is. But the meaning of the insurgency is that the committee is named by the chair man, two of each three members. The opposition says this committee should be elected, not appointed. The convention can do the vetoing. The 1030 convention made party his tory. The 1912 convention first as saulted President Taft. The 1916 body uncrowned Duncan. The con vention of 1926 can upset as much dope as any ever has. And that's what the insurgents are planning to do. They (Jo not so much as know whether there will be an election of a national committeeman in Durham. | They think so. But if that func tionary is chosen by the autocratic rather than the democratic p’an, the convention will have the work over. The Whitener men would not be surprised tc see the state committee do obc thing and the stkte convention undo it. When Morahead called the 1912 meeting of the' committee he fbund an organization, on account of lie desire to make peace in the party, ready to indorse President Taft, but the convention insulted him. The Durham meeting ijj not expect ed to elect a national committeeman. Recommendation to the state conven tion may be made. But Whitener. Mebano, Hester, Goslcrf, Tilly, Klnttz and Butler mean to work with the big body. It can start something. Progress With Drive for National Park. Asheville, Jan. B.—C4>)—That prog ress is being made in the drive for funds with which to purchase the area proposed for the Smoky Mountain National Park is indicated by the re sults stained in Yancey county.

I had invited a friend ro ray house the other day and soon after the invi tation I received a call from my friend telling me that she would be over to the house. I decided to rid myself of the former invitation, and told my mother to inform him that I was not at home when he called. The bell rang and my undesired guess was at the door. Hearing the door slam, I thought he had gone, and came out frotn my hiding. 1 said to my moth er, "Did the pest go?" I received no answer and knew the reason when I saw my insulted guest sitting, beside me. Upon returning from lunch Christ mas Eve, I found a check on my desk made out to “Cash.” Thinking it was a Christmas present from my boss, I immediately went in so his of fice and thanked Kim sincerely for the expected gift. He stared at me and finally said that he had left /the check on my desk so I could take it out and have it cashed for him. Mumps Makes Him Miss First Class in 17 Years. Durham.
