■wWrriJfcivlWßWß * msmuM . Washington, July 23.—About the only person in Washington who is not completely worn out by work and worry in the jungle heat of a Capital Summer is the President of the United States. The fact is noted here to dispel rumors that the President's health is failing. Washington's "silly season" al ways produces a crop of gossip and rumor about whoever happens to be occupying the White House. Sly whispers are exchanged, passed on and magnified in the passing, about the incumbent President's morals or his health. These get circulated around the country, until a lot of people who ought to know better than to credit irresponsible gossip, get to believe that there is some thing seriously wrong. This year's gossip touches the Now-Get Ready to Surprise Days FRIDAY, SATURDAY, JULY 26th-27th. When It Comes To Drug Store Service .

Nobody is whispering about his morals, but you can hear in any bar or club, at almost any social gathering or even on street corners "inside" but false information to the effect that Mr. Roosevelt is physically in a bad way The gossip mongers will tell you that the infantile paralysis, which has deprived him of the use of his legs for the past fourteen years, is creep ing upward, affecting his nervous system and his digestion and caus ing his doctors alarm, etc., etc., etc. President Spikes Rumor That is not true, but the rumor has become so persistent that, the President himself took notice of it. and at a recent press conference called attention to his robust phy sical condition and the calmness of his nerves. While he cannot take any form of exercise that involves the use of his legs, such as riding, golf or ten nis, he gives great attention to keeping fit, gets his exercise by swimming in the White House pool for half an hour every day, and is probably now in better general health than when he took office. He plans to demonstrate the truth -bout his health to the whole na tion next month when he will cross THE ELKIN TRIBUNE. KLKIN, NORTH CAROLINA - CHICAGO . , .

The President has one advantage over Congress, in that he sleeps in the same building that he works in, and does not have to expose himself to 100-degree temperatures in pass ing from one air-conditioned room to another. Congressmen, although their working quarters are air cooled, cannot escape exposure to the torrid, humid climate, and have to get such sleep as they can in hot rooms which are not conducive to rest. The result Is the greatest collec tion of frayed nerves and hair trigger tempers ever gathered on Capitol Hill. Congress as- a whole is physically unfit to debate calmly and reason clearly over any legis lative proposal. Senator Royal S. Copeland, of New York, a physician and former Health Commissioner, said frankly and publicly the other day that such a worn-out, dog-tired, heat smitten and generally run-down ag gregation as the Senate and House at this time could not possibly give balanced, well-considered or states manlike judgments. Look for Adjournment Senator Copeland prescribed an immediate and long vacation, and the indications now are that Con gress will act on that prescription and go home around the middle of August, perhaps earlier, leaving the President's next tax program for cooler consideration, either at the next regular session in January or at a special session beginning in November. "The President has worn out, not himself but Congress," remarked one of the shrewdest Washington observers the other day. That is literally true, and the result is rather languid and indifferent ap proval of current Administration measures by a body of men who haven't enough energy left to be either critical or constructive. All that is keeping Congress from adjourning this week is the pledge of the Democratic party leaders to Senator LaFollette that if he would refrain from offering his own "soak the-rich" tax program at this ses sion, and keep his Progressive fol lowers on the reservation, they would put the President's pet plan through at once, at least to the ex tent of reporting a new tax bill out of the Ways and Means Committee. Chevrolet Climbs To New August Record Detroit, July 22.—Chevrolet sales and production in June were the largest for that month since 1929, W. E. Holler, vice president and gen eral sales manager, reported today. Sales in the United States totalled 97,862 units. Total production, in cluding Canada and export, was 122,300. "These figures," Mr. Holler, an nounced, "not only surpass the sales and production totals for any other June since 1929, but with a single exception exceed the highest totals for any month in years. "For the third time this year, June gave us a monthly production in ex cess of 100,000, the other two months being March and April. In no other year since 1929 has even an entire year had three 100,000- car months such as this year already has at the half-way mark. "As we enter the second half of the year, we have already built more than 60 per cent as many cars as we produced in all twelve months of 1934—a year in which Chevrolet startled the industry by registering more cars in the last six months than in the first half. "Sales of the Master de luxe models in June greatly exceeded Standard model sales. However, the lower priced Standard models, im proved this year with the addition of the Master blue flame engine, lis a tremendous success. To date, 1935 Standard sales show an increase of 107,727 units the same period last year." Colorful Swim Suit NEW YORK ...

BOLT OF LIGHTNING STRIKES I.N.WILLARD Aged Citizen of Yadkin Dies Instantly After Being Hit By Bolt Isaas Newton Willard, 82, was in stantly killed Thursday afternoon at 4 o'clock, at his home near Shacktown, when he was struck by a bolt of lightning which h&d first hit a tree and going down the tree entered a small outhouse where he had gone a short time before. Only he and his wife were at home and when he did not return his wife went to look for him. When she found him his shirt was afire and she put out the fire, going then for help. Mr. Willard was born in Yadkin county, March 2, 1853, and most of his life had been spent in the coun ty.

Willard, who lives near the home. Twenty-eight grand-child ren and 27 great grand-children also survive, together with one brother, John Willard, of Minnesota, and one sister, Mrs. Alice Myers, of lowa. Mr. Willard had spent his life on the farm and when able still worked there. He was a charter member of Deep Creek Baptist church and his name was among the first enrolled on its books in October, 1884, and for the past 45 years he had been a deacon in the church and served its interests well. The funeral was held from the home Friday after noon at 4:30 and at Deep Creek at 5:00 o'clock. Rev. J. Q. Allgood and Rev. T. A. Caudle had charge of the services. Interment followed i» the church cemetery. Pallbearers were the Board of Deacons of the church who had served with him, they being Sam Mitchell, Cyrus Todd, Sid Shermer, A. C. Steelman, J. F. Legans, C. R. Groce and Delmar Hoots. Mrs. Etta Jayner, one of the above children, is in a critical con dition at her home in Winston-Sa lem and has not been told of her father's death.
