The visit of Mrs. Franklin D.
Roosevelt, wife of the President,
to North Carolina, where she will
be the honor guest of the stalwart
citizens of the Eastern section of
the state, at Wallace, is more evi
dence of the part women are
playing in public affairs. Like her
distinguished husband, Mrs
Roosevelt utilizes every oppor
tunlty to meet and mingle with
people and her many vtelts to
the state are evidence of her keen
appreciation for North Carolina,
where she is always given a
hearty welcome.
Therefore, the great gathering
scheduled for Wallace on Friday
with bbe First Lady as the guest
of honor, gives me a long-post
poned opportunity to commend
the part that women generally
have In civic and political func
tions. No longer do they just at
tend banquets and applaud the
words of mere man; they now
have an active part In the ar
rangements and share the respon
sibilities. And their activities are
having a wholesome effect on
these affairs. Tho bands that keep
order In the home and office are
truly exercising a beneficial effect
on public activities of every
character.
The part that women are play
ing In national affairs Is no bet
ter evidenced than In the records
of our great national conventions.
In this connection. It Is Interest
ing to note that at the Demo-
craUc National Convention of
1912—the first attended by Pres
ident Roosevelt—there were on
ly two women delegates. But at
the convention of 1932, which
nominated our Illustrious Presi
dent, tlhere were 208 women dele
gates and more at Philadelphia in
1936. And everyone concedes that
the preeence of the fine women
who are leaders in the affairs of
their respective statee has meant
more orderly and pleasant gath
erlngs of national leaders.
It Is all evidence that our coun
try Is beginning to make a great
er use of the variety of abilities
and Ciipacltles possessed by wom
en, and many of the limitations
which werei characteristic of the
posltl-y of women in our earlier
order are now being overcome.
Except for an aged lady from
Georgia wSio- held office for one
ceremonial day, no woman had
been either appointed or elected
to the United States Senate until
the autumn of 1931, when Ar
kansas elected th© widow of a
statesman to succeed her husband
for the unexplred term. Since,
that distinguished lady. Senator
Hattie Carraway, has been elect
ed in her own right and is now
serving with honor. Her dally
presence in tho Senate is an in
spiration to 'her colleagues. In
addition to being chairman of a
committee-—the Commltte on En
rolled Bills—she also seiwes on
Library. It is needless to say that
,she bears ber share of Senator
ial responsibilities.
In the House of Representa
tives are a number of active wom
en who merit their offices. It is
a far cry from the furore created
in 1916 when Montana elected

If you want extra choice »peci-»
men flowers of Peonies you'
should disbud them the same as
you do Dahlias. Just save the
center bud on each stalk, pinch
ing out those on the sides at the
leaf Joints. Of course, if you just
want to have a good show In the
gardc-n, those side shoots- will
produce fairly good-sized flowers.
But those who take pride in
flowers of extra size and perfect
shape will want to disbud Peon
ies as well as, in some instance®,
Roses.
In connection with Roses a
great deal depends upon the va
riety. Such freely blooming kinds
as Gniss and Teplltz, and the hy
brid perpetual Roses which bloom
during the month of June only,
need no disbudding. Grow them
primarily for garden show rather
than for cut-flower purposes.
Cultivate your roses. Feed free
ly with, liquid manure; If extra
large show blooms are wanted cut
off all but the terminal bud. One
sure way to get control of rose
hugs Is to pick them by hand Into
a ce.n of kerosene.
Your Dahlias should he staked
as -^oon as you can get the twine
around the shoot. Do not set out
Dahlia clumps, but divide them,
leaving but one eye to each root.
Do not plant any of the fleshy
tubers unless they have a piece
of the neck of th© stalk on them,
in w'hlch case they may develop
an eye. The safest thing to do
with Dahlias is to plant the old
clump and divide when the eyes
begin to show, which would be
after a week or ten days.

Chateau de Cande, Monts,
France, June 3.—The radiant
Duke of Windsor took Wallis
W'arfield as his bride and duchess
today In two serene and digni
fied marriage ceremonies.
Just 25 weeks ago today he
gave up his crown of England
and empire because sihe could not

“I will,” the duke supremely
happy, answered in a firm, loud
voice to the anglican poor man’s
parson who gave him th© unsanc
tioned blessing of the Church of
England.
As far as I could see neither
the duke nor anyone else kissed
the bride.
Ho raised his voice so high In
his eagerness to take tih© "woman
I love’’ as his wife that he startl
ed the 34 guests In the flower-
hanked music room of this old
chateau.
After him, his blue-eyed lady
answered “I will.’’ Her voice was
just as firm as Edward’s, but
more hushed.
The religious service ended at
12:14 p. m. (6:14 a.m. e.s.t.)
after the wedding party had come
in from highballs and cocktails on
i/he terrace.
This burst of gayety followed
roly poly Dr. Charles Mercier's
civil service as mayor of this
hamlet. The anglican preacher
who defined his bishops was the
Rev. R. Anderson Jardine, “poor
man’s” vicar of Darlington, Eng
land.
The duke gave his bride a
'beautiful diamond diadem to
wear on the brow no crown may
adorn.
“My hms-band has disappeared,”
she sobbed. "I want you to lind

travels through the spinal cord over the nerves
to all organs and tissues UNTIL something
