BROOKHART TO HIS SEAT
After all the time and money rep
resentatives of the government have
spent investigating the ease. Senator
Brookhart is going to be the dinner
in his election contest with Stock
purely for political reasons.
The Senate is goiug to vote to over
ride the decision of its sub-committee
and the committee on Privileges and
Elections. These committees, be it
understood, have decided that Steck
should be seated, but events within
the past several weeks have shown the
Republicans the need of treating
Brookhart kindly, so they are going
to vote for him. regardless of the com
mittee recommendations.
All of which makes one wonder why
it is necessary to have sub-committees
ajid committees. Such bodies spend
Weeks and months and years, some
times, working on an important case.
They get the facts, condense them
and then make their report. And : f
for political reasons, the report does
not suit, it is rejected and all of their
time and talent is wasted for political
gpin.
1 p Take this Brookhart-Steck contest
for instance. The case was intricate
nml difficult and was given study for
a year by a Sttb-committee composed
of two Republicans and two Demo
crats —Ernst, George. Caraway and
Watsoti —and . they unanimously de
clared Steck the winner. The com
mittee on Privileges and Elections
.promptly endorsed this decision by a
majority report. r
About the time tlie report comes out. $.
however, Brookhart announces that he f
is going to be a candidate for the «•.
Senate against Senator Cummins in g
case Steck is seated. That puts a v*
different political light on the matter V
and shows the Republicans the almost j;
certainty of losing one seat in the 1
Senate, for they believe Brookhart in j |
another contest will be elected by the j |:
people of his home State.
■■ v So there is a compromise. Senator Jj
Brookhart promises to be a friend of j f
the administration in the future and 1 \
the administration promises to see \
that he keeps his seat, thus leaving i j
the fieW open for Senutor Cummins in f
this year's election. Administration 1
leaders, including Senator Butler, Sen- j
at or Pepper a,nd others, are fighting j
now for Brookhart when the world
knows that before h : s announcement
for the Senate against Cummins was
made these leaeders had notfiiug to do,
with him.
HI TLER S FORCES ROTTED. [

forces d : d hue at some of
i the county conventions and at cau
cuses before the convention started,
but on the convention floor they eould
do nothing. Chairman Bramham had
the regulars back of him and he was
too well entrenched to be moved by
any Butler move.
, Marion Butler has served bis day
, as a leader of the Republicans in this
State. He is influential still, to be
sure, but a new group of leaders is
coming up and he ’is not known by
that group. The retiring chairman

the reason he cany get what be wa^ts.
So long as the chairman of the ex
ecutive committee in North Carolina
can keep on friendly terms with the

can get the support from the White
House.
WE’VE GOT TOO MANY NOW.
One hears talk now about modifica
tion of the immigration law. The law
is so drastic, it is argued, that many
foreigners needed here can’t get it. to
say nothing of those who want to
come and are not especially needed.
If we are going to make any changes
in the law let’s make it more drastic
so as to include the deportation *of
many immigrants we admitted before
the new law became effective. That’s
what we need now more than any
think else. We have already greeted
enough of the undesirables from Eu

New York. April S—Uncertainty
is ill the dominating characteristic
of the market of sentiment, and fluc
tuations are microscopic, which also
describes the volume of business.
Long range theories are plentiful
resting for the most part on assump
tions the propriety of which will
need many months to prove or re
fute.
The crop is starting late and much
, of the available seed is reported of
poor quality, which will germinate
successfully only under highly favor
able conditions. The acreage is a sub
ject of dispute, but the best opinion
seems to be that it will show a net
loss, even though small, while it ap
pears that something will have to be
taken off the figures for last year.
Just why a’l that should be intetr-
Inoted as a basis for assuming an
other large crop is difficult to ex
plain, but that idea persists in some
quarters with the inference that the
textile industry will be afflicted with
aggravated overproduction of raw
material and goods.

BLOWING ROCK ROAD
IS TO BE IMPROVED
i f
Engineers Expected to Go Over
Highway From Lenoir Soon.
' Lenoir, April B.—At a meeting
‘ several days ago of the state high
■ way commission in Raleigh it was
i decided to improve the Lenoir-Blow
, ing Rock road thi«> spring. Engineers
. are expected here within the next
few days to go over the road between
the end of the pavement above the
fountain to connect with the pave
ment of Blowing Rock and develop
plans for the improvement. It is not
known whether any part of the road
will be re-located. However, it is
certain that the entire stretch will
be regarded. Gravel and a coat of
tar to correspond wath the balance
of the pavement, it is understood,
will be used as a finish.
Crushed stone has already been
secured for another coat of tar and
oil on the section of this road from
Lenoir to the end of the present
pavement. This pjrt of the work
will probably be*under way within
the next few days.

“Why Girls Go Back Homo" wKh Patsy Ruth Millar la a Warner
prpduoUon from this aouoL
CHAPTER I
Several things had made Clifford
Dudley reluctantly take to the road
that hot summer. In those days,
whenever you thought of Clifford
Dudley, you thought at once of “The
Artist,” that seductive play of fif
teenth century Italian morals or lack
of morals, which Iflid won for him
his first starring sign on Broadway,
and liis first big type in the treatrical
columns. Even Clifford Dudley, af
ter a year of six nights and two mati
nees weekly of “The Artist.” found it
hard to disassociate himself from the
part. His manager, a smart, if tact
ful Irishman, said of him that he
walked in his street clothes as if they
were tfie doublet and house of his role
iu the theatre. But never to Clif
fords face. Mr. Dugan was tactful.
To Dudley’s face, in the second spring
i)f "The Artist.” Mr. Dugan said as
follows:
“Now. Cliff, my boy,-we 11 have to
be givin’ up the shiy here. Which
is a good thing, for if you don’t go
out and show yourself to t’he sticks
soon, my boy. the number of women
deserting their husbands to come to
New York and see the Great Lover’ll
be so large that the population qf
these United State's will be set back
I don’t know how many million. Aud

we can’t have that. Cliff, my boy. As
patriotic Americans, we gotta guard
against that at all costs!’’
This, said with Mr. Dugan’s yield
ing Irish smile, which completely be
lied the found, hard eyes of the tribe
of theatrical managers, eyes like two
small blue marbles, had its effect on
Clifford, especially when backed by
further arguments. Did not Clifford
want his fame as a Great Lover to
penetrate to the farthest reaches of
these United States? Seizing him.
would not the people clamor for him
in motion pictures, and. if so. would
it not mean the part of “The Artist”
in the moving picture version, with
emoluments not to be despised ?
Besides, there was what might be
called a personal reason. There was
a little matter, in fact, of a breach
of promise suit against Clifford Dud
ley by a chorus girl of no importance
whatever, whom Clifford had known
and wooed and won when he was of
not so much importance either. Mr.
Dugan, “his boy’s” interests closely at
heart, had advised *»in shrewdly :
“If you go and stay away all sum
mer an’ the case gets put off and
put off by your lawyers, this girl hc
ing probably out of a job in the sum
mer season, is going to get mighty
hard up. and then your lawyer comes
along with an offer to settle say for
I 'two thou, and this girl is going to
f accept. That’s Vhat they all do.
You can get into all the messes you
i want, later on. Cliff, my boy. when
y you’re the cat's pajamas, but at the
present moment, take my advice and
lay low. You gotta keep the mati-
nee ladies falling for you a fid you ■
can’t do that by getting married < r
engaged right away, or letting the}
public know, you gave a girl the air. j
Even a chorus girl. See?”
Clifford sata. And this was v/uv, I
on the late August evening, he 4onnd]
himself, not at one of the cool Long
Island resorts, where the smare semi-}
society of New York which goes in
for well-known actors, had made shift
to entertain him last summer.
He found himself, instead, yawn
ing behind the fusty curtain of the
musty WinesviUe Opera House, when
church quartettes “entertained” in
winter, where high school boys and
girls tripped awkwardly in their an
nual performances of “something from
where oite-night stand
musical ecmedy shows went noisily
tlirough t heir paces, and where many
a trained seal ancl dancing bear hud
catered to the artistic sensibilities of
Winesvitlc. Once Edwin Booth, as
the mad Prince, had collected a rec
ord audience in Winesville, and ever
since Winesville had traditionally gone
to the- play, w'.ien there was a play.
It was known in theatrical parlance
as a “good show town.”
“Why in the'j did they romp)

Lover,, bethinking himself of the sleepy
Main Street seen from t'je train. «s
the eompiiny Scuttled out just before
theutre time.
He never finished the sentence.
I For just then a piece of chewing

ened itself to the Florentine extremi-

'■ 1 t'ue Great Lover sprang from his
chair, and, hopping on one foot,
jounced upon the manager in the
wings.
“Scene No. 1” said the manager
I under his breath.
“What the blank, blank, blank.”
cried “The Artist,” working himself
up to his most effective passion, “do
‘ you mean, William*, t»y booking me
in a hick house that’s coated with
chewing gum? Ami you expect me
to give my usual performance here,
do you? DO YOU? Put on my un

“The Great Dud’s having another

actor to the grease paint in his dress

I He ambled away. The Great

and his head dropped to his hefty
fcj chest, displayed to great advantage
>1 by his short Florentine jacket.
II The next moment, her giggle and
i a musical cry of prescinded fear
!j amused the people nearby. The avid
■ | yokel had caught her finger in his
; mouth. Their neighbors turned to
j look and smile knowingly at the play
i fulness of the youth.
!| "Now. John!" cried the girl, col
' | oring a little.
i The youth, dead to shame, kissed
the finger tenderly. The girl blushed
more furiously, disengaged her hand.
- while her dimple belied the sternness,
i In fact, the hand, trailing between
- the seats, immediately yielded to the
■ hand of J oho which had trailed af
i tec it. The girl spread her skirt of
f lavender silk dress a little, and the
two clasped hands found a half-refuge
i behind it.
"Not so worse," sain Clifford. He
' had a neat mustache, grown for the
1 purposes of the part. Ordinarily he
railed against it, but lie found the
! mustache useful when looking at a
' pretty girl—and he stroked it gently.
"Wonder how old she is? Doesn't
1 look more than seventeen. Pretty
’, kid !" he murmured.
’•I A rude stagehand pushed a chair
1 against his leg. Clifford stared. The
11 1 rude stugehand glared back:

"Say, the curtain goes up in two
minutes!”
Out in the audience, the pretty girl
ami her John leaned dreamily against
each other. They blinked when the
curtain rose, so .suddenly. It seemed
to them. For in the moment of
darkness when their lips met. they

The rise of the curtain disclosed!
Clifford, signing at his easel, wtiile the
model pcsed in the background. With
many heaves of hie manly bosom. Clif
ford took the audience into his confi
dence about the supposed depth of his
love and its hopelessness. There teas I
a dull few minutes of stage business,
and the necessary conversation which '
gave the audience the background.
It was hot. The audience chewed
its gum unemotionally. Clifford,
thought ahead of the love scenes with
confidence. That would make them
sit up. Out of rt»e corner of bis
eye. he saw that pretty girl in the
first row placidly eating another choc
olate. x
Oh ! He'd show her! This was
his moment.
He threw down his brui/i with a
clatter. The pretty girl started.
Sally, the model, hearing her cue,
pantomimed, as she always did, ifi '
spite of the Florentine atmoshpere:
“What's eating you?” She thought
it was funny.
Clifford's voice came melodiously
from his heart. It was passionate
and said. The women in the audience
began to move away a little from
their men folks. Clifford was sup
posed to turn to the model, as he
j spoke, and extend his hands. Instead
i '.ie tift-ned to the audience, and. look-1
ling directly at the pretty girl in the j
first row. fastening his eyes on the
i large, brown ones which she had
| turned stratled to the stage, he be-
|sought:
"How eau I work with inanimate
' paints, When you are here—so alive
|—so desirable?”
' Tlie model's face was in the
shadow. Otherwise the bored ex
pression of her face would have bybn
out of the picture. Inwardly, ■She
thought: “Oh, Gawd, Dud's up to his j
trikes again. She's a pretty kid, ail
right." Aloud, she said coolly:
"Go back to your- work. I beg of
you."
"Turn passionately," the stage di- J
rections said at this juncture. Clif
ford turned passionately, but over his
shoulder he looked at the brown eyes
and his voice implored and sang:
"Your youth is claiming me—to be
wooed. To be loved. To be won."
A little gasp went through the au
ftietice, following his eyes so directly
to the girl, in the front row. The
audacity of this actor. And Marie
Downey, who was she anyway? the
women thought resentfully. They
Could see the back of her head very
piaintiy. the only girl's head in the
front row rigid. Was she making
eyes at him, blushing? They could
not see.
John, however, coniil see —her eyes,
fastened on the actor, with wonder,
awe. and delight. She seemed toj
hardly dare to hreathe through her
open, transfixed mouth. Her band
unconsciously loosened in John's grip.
He released it. flung it from him.
She did not seem to feel. She moved
forward in her seat, held by the mel
lifluous voice which spoke of l-ove
in great big, capital letters. John’s
lips came up in a childish i>out. He
was only twenty. This was too
much.
, Sally Short, the model, got tip from
tlie dais and trailed her draperies to
the footlights. She was making the
responses with annoyance, No good
trouper likes to see a scene being
; spoiled, for a wiui of tlie star’s.
ii "Williams has got to stop this!"
I she vowed angrily. “If he wants a
1 cutie from the nudience for his load
ing woman, o. k., blit that lets me
out."
Aloud, she said:
"You are a man of fickle moods,
ilf I could but believe you!” and
added, sotto voce, on her own initia
tive : •
“Catch me.”
Clifford strode toward her. He
caught her in his arms, aud began his
long love speech. This was a big
scene for Sajiy. too. They were sup
posed to stand sideway, half facing
the audience, so that it could see
the varying emotiom on both their
faces. But as Clifford began his
speech, slowly, coolly, lie gripped
Sally's arms, manipulating her with
unwonted force, in the heat of his
passion, so that lie finally stood with
his face to the audience and gripped
her tightly in his arms, with her back
■ to the people and her brow against
“ bis chest. Thus lie continued, in
toning the love speech to Marie, be-
seeching her. pleading with her,
stref\Jdug forth ope haud directly
toward her.
“Will you look at thut?" gasped
the girl back of Marie to her grin
ning sweetheart. "She's got him
going!"
Jehu, beside himself, uudged Marie
sharply. She gave a vague nod of
Ju-r head. Her eyes were swimming
with tears, us the urtisi told thy sad

It yearned toward .the, man-ou jhc

“Well, if that's the ease," he said
imtUy, “| must go yu in spite of ev-
! erything. We ean’t disappoint the
public, ca'n we, Williams? We art
ists !”
“Ch-huh.*’ mumbled Williams.
Stepping carefully to gvoid possible
further deposits of prehistoric chew
ing gum, Clifford went back to his
vantage point He remembered be
had been about to look through the
peephole and see what the house
held.
“Yokels,” he muttered under his
breath. And true enough, the popu
lation of Winesville, dressed for the
occasion in its best hats imported by
the Itoss department store from the
nearest Baris, which was Pittsburgh,
rustling Its best summer dresses (not
indeed of organdy and calico, but of
highly over-decorated silgs) with the
too tight-fitting suits of its sporting
men, aid not look very invisting to a
pair of eyes inured to the panorama
of Times Square and Fifth Avenue.
However, a gleam came into Clif
ford’s eyes. There, in the front row,
sat a really pretty girl next to a
blond yokel who wore a pair of not
too clean white flannel trousers. She
sat very next to him indeed. Their
