PAGE EIGHT 1? '?" ; News of Raleigh (Continued from Page 1) HAKWOOD AGAIN REJECTED Again former Superior Court Judge John H. Harwood has been denied the privilege ot taking the bar examination by the council of the State Bar, the council holding he "is not eligible to apply for a license to practice law on the occasion of the examination." The examination will be held in August. Judge Hai-wootl entered a plea of guilty to a charge of mutilating ., ? . 1 .. fr. /loot l ' oiaic rctuiua 111 an cnvi i iu uwnuj evidence that his daughter, Lola. Had embezzled funds while employed by the State as a clerk. Both served prison terms. He lost his law license as the result of conviction of a felony and has made several efforts to regain his status as a lawyer. He is licensed as an insurance agent. PAK.\ LYSIS Infantile paralysis continues its wide sweep through the State, and after showing gains for a few days, will show fewer new cases for others. The total for the State reached 162 cases last week for the year so far. but probably less than ninety of j the remaining cases are contageous. j health officers say. The trend now j seems to be downward, fewer new cases being reported over a given pe- j riod. The previous high record was in 1929, with 133 cases. The epidemic is confined largely to the central .section of the State. Meanwhile, Delaware has declared a sort of quarantine against North Carolinians. 3IOTOR VEHICLES Watauga County had 750 automobiles and 350 trucks as of June 30, as compared with 700 automobiles and 350 trucks a year before, and with 675 automobiles and 325 trucks three months before, Director L. S. Harris of the Motor Vehicle Bureau reports. These figures arc obtained by measuring a given number of registra- , tion cards on file in the office, then | using that unit to measure ail of the cards for the county.

DEEDS DELIVERED TO ICKES Deeds O" the first twelve miles of right-of-way in the Park to Park | Highway from the Virginia line southward into North Carolina were presented to Secretary Tckes in Washington Monday by Charles Resr, general counsel for the State Highway, and Public Works Commsision. The legality of the deeds has been questioned and Mr. Ross sought to convince Secretary Iclces that they are legal. As has been done on all rightof-way for State highways that had to be condemned, the area was condemned and taken over, the settlement being done in the court later.

Often I discover that they think of "opportunity" as a chance to jump right out of school into a ! well-paid, easy job, with short hours, I long w^ek-eiias and generous vaca: tions. It is true that Uiat sort of opporI '.unity no longer exists. What is more, it never did exist! There is always a place, though, : for the intelligent, industrious and J ambitious boy or girl who really |wants to work, is not afraid of long 'hours and low wages to start with, land has good health and good habits. lit these times it often takes more time to find such an opportunity than j it did a few years ago. but the seeker who gives up after one or two discouragements demonstrated that he is not the sort of a person employers are looking for. LTX'K . . . also goods I have a friend who started his i 1 I c-i r->o i- .1 ? of lVin oo_YY?A f ! I did, ii\ 1 he same town and at *uie 'same wages?$12 a week. Now he is i the head of one of the largest busiI ness corporations in the world. I ' asked him once how he had climbed so far. ' hock,** he replied. ' That's how most folk got wherever they are. But. i don't misunderstand me. When T. say luck* T don't mean blind chance. Luck | : method, thinking the deeds should be from the owners. Mr. Ross contended that the method used is legal and has been followed in this State for several years. M.W WAV TO TRAIN DOGS A hew method of training bear dogs is used by hunters in the Mount Mitchell game area. C. N-. Mease. refuge warden, reports. Hunters were seen rubbing a stone over the body of a baby bear which is a pet and favorite at the Mount Mitchell refuge. The stone was wrapped in paper and placed in the car, the hunter ! explaining he was training a pup as I a bear dog and was taking the bear i scent home The Mount Mitchell area, i almost depleted of big game a few (years ago. now has an abundance, I hunters killing about fifty bears each year In nearby public hunting ; grounds. Scores of deer arc also found in and around the refuge, due to proj tcction and restocking. The 37 miles of streams in the refuge are also i well stocked with fish. >OXsS? jt >.50, $7.50 IASEMENT | IN STORE | n t each] f!

He , made it a point to keep in perfect I physical condition and to indulge no bad habits. He studied ways to make a good impression on his superiors and associates. "Window-dressing is as important for the individual as for the store," lie said, "but you've got to have the goods on jour shelve ." HtXk" . . . for ambitious Under my friend's direction, the great corporation which he heads takes pains to help its 60.000 or more workers to "stimulate their luck." Every employee who shows signs of special abilit;. and of ambition to get ahead, can count 0:1 a helping- hand. "The only way to run a big business successful^-." piy friend once said to :>-.e, "is to show everyone in the organization the door of hope, and encourage tliem all to find their way through it. That, and to put just as possibly be clone." BOY . . . now on job i The son of one of my village neighbors has been doing odd jobs around i my country place for three or four ; years, after school, Saturdays and in i vja&ations. I>ast month he graduated i from our town high school, with nigh marks. "What are you going to do now, John?" I asked him. He dropped the h a n d 1e of t he la 'mmower and straightened up. "I'm going *o college," he said. "I 1 don't know how, but T'm going. I've < got to work my way?dad can't help ' me, with my seven younger brothers J and sisters to bring up?but I'll find a way! I'm going to hitch-hike to \ New York and look for a job." I smiled at his enthusiasm, but did not discourage it. Neither did I encourage the idea of a country boy seeking work in New York these hard times. "If you get there, look me up, John," I said, and gave him my New York office address. Sure enough, a ] week later, John showed up. I thought of my friend of whom I have just been talking. I wrote a note to him and gave it to John. "Try your lurk there,'-. I said. Next day I got a letter from my friend. The head of a great company had personally interviewed a i green country boy and?he had given him a job! Now it is up to John.
