Scott Louiiburg, N. Carolina MBS. FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT Because of the versatility of her nature and her wide and va ried interests, Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, wife of the president, who comes to Henderson, N. C. to lecture on "Relationship of the Citizen to the Community" under t'he auspices of the Business and Professional Women's Club is probably the best-known woman in ? America. Coal miners in Western Penn sylvania and share-croppers in Georgia know her warm smile and keen interest in their welfare al most as well as official Washing ton knows her in the gracious ful filment of the role of the na tion's First Lady and leading hos tess. Mrs. Roosevelt's amazing ener gy is a constant source of nation al wonder. She attributes her ability to get so many and such varied things done to organiza tion. Besides presiding at all of t'he manifold traditional social func tions ? dinners, receptions, teas, luncheons, etc. ? and what is vir tually and unprecedented number of other social functions at the Whit* House, Mrs. Roosevelt finds time to be an author, to conduct a daily newspaper column, to lec ture and to be wife, mother ilnd grandmother. Her autobiography, "This is My Story," and her "My Day," a compilation of some of her news paper columus, and "It's Up to the Women," a commentary of matters of current interest, have had a wide reading. She also col lected and edited her fatber'g. pa per under the title, "Hunting Game in India in the Eighties." Her other writings include arti cles for various magazines. Since she began writing her newspaper column more than three years ago her copy has ar rived late at' her syndicate's of fice only thre'e times. One of these a terrific thunderstorm broke down temporarily telegraphic communication at Hyde Park. On another .Miss Malvina Thompson, her secretary, gave the copy to a third person who forgot it while Miss Thompson herself forgot it on the third. The copy has al ways been ready on time. Mrs. Roosevelt dictates t'he col umn as Miss Thompson types it. Many times this dictation is done en route, in train, in airplanes, on boats, in hotel rooms, and even in moving automobiles with the typewriter resting on Miss Thomp son's knees. As a lecturer. Mrs. Roosevelt is a model of punctuality. She fills between t-hirty and forty lec ture engagements a season, some times lecturing as many as six times a week, and she has never yet been known to miss a train or to be late. Nor is she impatient, with questions from her audience so long as they evince a genuine desire for Information or opin ions. No one who has ever read of her account of t'be trying period when she nursed the future presi dent of the United States through an attack of infantile paralysis can doubt her wifely devotion. Headlines tell almost daily of her treks north, south and west in ministering to her far-flung broiyl. Serious iiineBs in her daughter's Seattle home or a son's home in Texas or Boston is just as certain to bring a visit from t'he First Lady of the Land as it is from the mother of any other family in the nation to the stricken home of a child. The activities that have most endeared ,Mrs. Roosevelt to th? nation, however, and made her well known among all classes of its people are her seemingly tire less investigations of social con ditions and her genuine desire to alleviate suffering and hardship among the unfortunate. On her tours about the country she is able to accept few purely social engagements, but any new pro ject designed to make life easier and more comfortable for those she feels to be downtrodden or handicapped by circumstances is assured of her interest. Mrs. Roosevelt will lecture in the Henderson High School on November the nineteenth. The seating capacity is limited to 1,000 and when those seats are sold the sale will be (Josed.

The game applies to beer retailing. Out of the. 5, 000 retailers in North Carolina, there is bound to be a small minority who disobey the law or permit anti-social conditions. The Brewers and North Carolina Beer Distributors Committee wants even this * small minority of undesirable beer re- .? tailers eliminated entirely. To that end. the Committee cooperates with law en forcement officers in securing the revoca tion of the retail licenses of theae objec tionable outlets. One hundred and two licenses have been revoked during the past year. Brewers and North Carolina Beer Distributors Committee EDGAR H. RAIN, State Dirctor 813-817 Commercial Build in* v Raleigh, N.
