As heretofore stated by TrtE Rec ord the newly elected Represen tatives will not take their seats untilthe first Monday in next December, more than a year from their election. The ensu sng session of Congress is known as the short session, expiring on the 4th of next March, and no important legislation will be en acted. This will be the last session of many Congressmen, both Sena tors and Representatives,the late election having retired to private life an unusually large number. Those Republicans who survived the late landslide will find a very great change when they return next December to the 62nd Con gress. Instead of their being in a large majority, as they have been for eighteen years, they will be in a large minority, the official returns showing that the Democrats will have a majority of 64 in the next House. Espe cially striking will the change be io those Republican Congress men who have been ehairmen of committees. There are thirty six committees of which Repub licans are chairmen now, and all of them will be supplanted by Democratic chairmen in the next House of Representatives. The chairmen of every one of these committees has a "soft berth" with many desirable perquisites, which the present occupants will tsadly miss and which will be cor respondingly enjoyed bv their Democratic successors. datum, because there is not so much need for scientific drain age here as there is in the east ern part of the State. It is said tkt there are 2,100,- 000 acres of unreclaimed swamp lands in this State and that at least half this may be profitably drained and cultivated. It is also said that there are ,000,- 000 acres now under cultivation which are insufficiently drained and which with proper drainage might be cultivated much more profitably. These swamp lands when properly drained are very fertile and raise very profitable crops, and hence the need of having them properly drained. Resolutions were adopted urg ing the A. & M. College to teach drainage engineering and the next Legislature to authorize the employment of a competent drain age engineer, under the super vision of the State geologist, to confer with land owners and make investigations about drain ing their lands. two weeks have not missed a word in ray spelling lesson.

The Democratic representation in the next House will be 227 as against 163 Republicans and Socialist, according to the roster of the House published . today.

It is about four hundred miles between the two towns and yet it is a considerable distance from each town to the State line, thus showing what a long State we have. One of the towns is situated in a low, flat country on a uroaa expanse of water, the Patquotank river, not far from the Albemarle sound, while the other town is among the moun tains and is a noted summer re sort, thus illustrating the varied A. 1 . ujpograpny and climate of our State. These two religious bodies rep resent the two largest denomina tions in this State, and their pro ceedings are of much importance and will be noted with much in terest. Bishop E. R. Hendrix of Kansas City, will preside over the Methodist Conference, hav ing been appointed by the other bishops, but the presiding officer of the Baptist Convention (called moderator) will be elected by that body and is usually a layman. The public spirited citizens of Winston-Salem will have a grand celebration on the 15th of De cember in honor of the comple tion of the South-Bound railroad from the "twin cities' to Wades- boro. Gov. Kitchin has been in vited to attend and deliver an address and excursion trains wil be run over the new road for the accommodation of the visitors who are expected. This road was completed last week, when the first through train was run over. it. Its con struction will be of great benefit not only to the cities of Winston Salem and Wadesboro, its term ini, but also to the towns and country along its route in For syth, Davidson, Stanly and An son counties. This new road was constructed by the Atlantic Coast Line and the Norfolk and Western Railroad companies jointly. We fear, however, that by this road the trade of all that section, between Winston and Wadesboro, will be carried on to Charleston instead of to Wil mington, as the road will be op erated by the Atlantic Coast Line in connection with its road from Wadesboro to Charleston. Railroad trains can now en ter the city of New York, from the South and West and passen gers can now arrive and depart from near the centre of the city, .' i. . e l t -. lnaieuu ui at jersey uity, as heretofore. This great conven ience was made possible by the opening to travel of the tunnel under the Hudson river on last Saturday night. This tunnel had been under construction for about seven years and, together with the terminal facilities in New York, had cost over one hundred million dollars. cents apiece cash.

Roscoe, N. C, Nov. 28, 1910. We are pleased to publish the above letter and hope other boys will write short letters o The Record exchanging their experi ences, which may be of interest to them. We would be pleased to have "a boys' column" -in every issue, devoted exclusively to the boys . of the county, and thus get them interested in mat ters that may benefit them. The boys of this day will soon become the men of our county.
