SClUer, editor of Oa Cliarlotte Otwerrer, conducts m column In' his i>aper entitled '■(ont and Comment,” which Is vfielr read and with much In- Sveet. On Monday the column was devoted to a discussion of Vnkes county and in order to Sd all the people in this section toow what that eminent editor Ikfaks about Wilkes county The Jwarnal-Patrlot is glad to repro- 4m8 his comment of that date in «ill; The backwardness of Wilkes county has traditionally found a itece in the headlines in North Arolina. The time is overdue to sub- aCitote its forwardness instead. lU present progressiveness is an •pic. Even no more than a snatch a visit to that county and to Mb capital, North Wilkesboro, win make one wonder if there ever was a period in its history when iihat community was slov- •Bly or careless in its socirl, edu- SKtional and industrial cultures. At any rate, Wilkes county and Ms high-stepping, fast-moving ur- han mecca have their face to the •oirrise today. Back yonder when the first Jk>w of Federal relief money was •vailable for expenditure in iSorth Carolina, those in charge •f this brand new Federal serv- we in the State found two com- amnities in North Carolina which •bowed no especial eagerness in piruirig their paws out for the were or less vulgar grah. One of them was Lenoir and tlhe other was North Wilkesboro. The explanation was that they w«re moving along at such a tealthy and normally good gait *B their own power that they ■were not breaikng their necks to pet the Government to bring tkem a feed trough. That same strong, robust and wtcourageable attitude contiuues. There i.s such a delightful and wholesome balance exi.sling he- tjwce.n the industrial and agrictil- 3Bral life of that couimiiiiity that hath have tlie resources to travel -VO their own momentum. North Wilkesboro is not a large capital, but it hak a mercantile and industrial tone which might well be the envy of larger and more populous centers in the State, diversified factories that keep humming, banks that are tstrong, resourceful and capable of meeting every demapd for the expansion of the business and trade life of the community, a business activity in the stores and market-places that eloquent ly speak of the purchasing power of the people. If President Roosevelt wants to get anywhere with his theory that our industries in America ought to decentralize, pull out from the narrow settlements they it is no marrel that the, itErK cultural Hto of th« county ahoul^ have become so profitably devel oped. Rich soils lie as the first foun dation. Good markets right at home invite the produce from the fields and orchards. Good roads lead out to the more populous selling centers. And adding Immensely to the allurements of rural life is the scenic loveliness of these envir ons, not the towering majestic of our tallest mountains in North Carolina, but a panorama of un dulating vistas with fertile val leys resting between ascending hills on which apple orchards spread and cattle roam and homes are built upon commanding emi nences. Surprise Birthday Dinner .Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Adams, of occupy in the cities, and scatter wnkesboro route 1, were over the countryside, he could profitably hold up as an example of the practicality of his vision what has come to pass in Wilkes county and North Wilkesboro. Righteen hundred of the work ers in the varied industries of the latter live out in the environs pleasantly surprised Sunday, No vember 3, when thfe^ returned from preaching at Center church and found neighbors and friends gathered at their home to cele brate Mr.s.

Wilkesboro their own gardens, fuel froi * their own woods, and bank the difference—which difference is their wages from an industrial occupation. They are, therefore, an indepedent. happy, contented, industrial population. Thus has developed such a j ciarriage between the industrial- ( agricultural classes of that com munity that no friction ever de velops: no feudal attitudes be tween industrial and agrarian occupations, no strife between capital and labor, no enmities between employers and employes. .\dded to this l)asic occupa tional kinship and commonalty of interest is the unique prepon derance of native blood and character among the citizens of the capital of Wiilke.s county. Only one foreign-born is doing l)nsiness in North Wilkesboro. a Greek who, as you might expect, ow'ns and operates a restaurant and he married a home girl.

'"'X' ^ Youth Carole Perman with Earl Car- roll Vanities, one night only, Wednesday, Nov. 13, at State Theatre, Winston-Salem, N. C. Touring under the personal di rection of Earl Carroll, the lat est edition of his Vanities will be presented at the State Theatre, Winston-Salem, N. C., Wednes day night. Nov. 13.. Previous editions of this big revue have toured the country hut each season Earl Carroll makes a new production with all new stars, scenery and light ef fects. The revue is a costly type of entertainment to produce as it entails a big investment for scen ery, costumes and light effects. The operating cost is very heavy Oil account of the number of peo ple employed and the high sal aries paid the stars and the prinr cipal entertainers. Then to tour such a u organization, heavy transportation cr-sts must be added. This is why so few elaborate productions take to the road and the reason they are so greatly appreciated when the opportunity to see them is afforded. This season Clark and McCul- lou.gh, comedy stars, are at the head of the Vanities cast and supporting them are such talent ed folk as Violet Carlson, Fifi D’Orsay. Buster West, Lucille Page, Hugh Cameron, Crane Sis ters. A1 Sexton, Charles Carrer. Also included in the cast of seventy-five people are the fam ous Earl Carroll Beauties who comprise the chorus ensemble, all of them rersoiially selected by Earl Carroll, who is known as -America’s premiere authority on feminine beauty.

The song hits include “The Call To .Arms” The conftwlov'whieb tended the admintailration,. student^'ald funds to students lii institutions below college level in this state may now be^eleared by the following^ information se- cording to a statement today by C. E. Meintosb. In the first announcement of this “below college” aid progtram, that is the program of aid to students between 18-2S years of age in high schools or graded schools, the following regula tion was In force. The yonth must have been a member of a family on relief in May, and the family must be on relief now. This regulation was subse quently modified so that youths In families coming on relief since May could also receive aid. A third supplementary regula tion is that any needy and worthy youth may be recommended for aid by school officials, provided that those in the first and sec ond group have received prior consideration. It is now possible, therefore, for youths to receive aid in the following groups: 1. The first group eligible for application must belong to fam ilies on relief in May. 2. The second group need not have been on relief in May, but must be on relief at the time of application. 3. When applications from the above groups have been met, then any needy youth may apply. “It is hop.'J,” concluded Di rector McIntosh, “that this broad ened scope will allow any needy youth to receive aid. A city or county unit which has not award ed these scholarships by the end of the second payroll period will be deprived of the unassigned portion of Federal funds. It a county or city unit cannot use these funds, the scholarships should be transferred where they are needed.” I TbFrom s. - •Year-Old Oie« HrrJBfg for Thur- moi>4~ webBton^v •Ix-yeBr-old los of Mr.-tuid •MiW.-fJBmM Webster, of Tra^lti^Vho dlod from perl- toBltlSiSaetelopiiig from a ruptur ed - api>endlx,' were conducted Sunday at 11 o'clock from Round Hill Baptfht church.
