Mow down the moon-chill of the

And spread upon the frosted dawn,
The glow of day but newly born.

They twinkle brightly, as in fun,
And pirouette along the ground.
Without the slightest bit of sound.

Although she will be 92 years old

like this: February 29 comes only
once every four years-—Leap
year—and the calendar is so ar
ranged that centennial y»y.rs must
be divisible by 100 instead of by
four to be a Leap year. .Since
1900 was not so divisible, Mrs.
Straus went without a. birthday

Everything Ready
For Dance Tonight
Everything was In readiness this
afternoon for West End Country
Club’s annual New Year’s Eve Bail
to be presented in the club’s ball room
this evening from 10:30 o’clock until
2:30 o'clock with Billy Groffo and his
orchestra playing for the event.
Sam Alford, chairman of arrange
ments. stated today that there would
be plenty of refreshments at inter
mission time, and that a very large
crowd was expected to attend the
'vent.
Th' dunce is always one of the
outstanding of the y«*ur, and the
membership is expected t<> turn out
to hid 1935 a fond goodbye at mid
night.
Efforts wen* being made this after
noon to have the road to the club
house and parking space cleared of
snow.
Highways Clear
Os Snow, Not Ice
(Continued from Page One.)
r o" drivers to do who must be out on
the roads is to drive more carefully
than ever and to drive slowly, since
they never can toll when they are go
ing to run onto one of these slick
places.”
The maintenance forces have done
an excellent job and have worked
night and day to clear the snow from
the roads. Wavniek said. Aluny of the
maintenance foremen got their crews
out at midnight Saturday night when
it startl'd to snow and then worked
all night, and all ady Sunday and
again Sun ay night.
‘‘The maintenance --ows got. very
little Ghristmas vacation, since most
of them worked hardest on the days
they were supposed to have off and
have shown the finest spirit. I have
ever seen.” Waynick said. “I am hop
iny we will not have any snow or
■deet for a while, since these men
have earned and deserve a little rest."
There have been very few aecidnts
mice the heavy snow Saturday night
and Sunday, showing that the auto
mobile drivers can drive osirmiily and
that when they (Jo. there are very few
accidents, Wavniek said.
Mr. Daniels Pressed
As Bailey Foe
(Continued from Page One )
have talked with him recently that
he does not seem to he at all displeas
ed when his callers suggest that he
resign as ambassador to Mexico and
become a candidate against Senator
Josiah W. Bailey for the Democratic
nomination for senator in the June
primary, now only five months off.
II is more or b - ss conceded by those
close to the ambassador that he does
”<»t by any means approve of all the
things Senator Bailey has done since
he went to Washington as senator in
1931. The report is also current that
one of the reasons former Lieutenant
Governor Richard T. Fountain, of
Rocky Mount, called upon Ambassa
dor Daniels last week was to tell him
♦ hat if he should decide to seek the
nomination for the Senate, he (Foun
tain) 'wcjuld withdraw as a candidate
■md sbnpnrt him. This report hastjnot
been verified, however, and is being
taken with a grain of salt in a good
many political circles here. It is
agreed, however, that if Ambassador
Daniels should become a candidate, he
would probably get his greatest sup
port from the element which support
ed Fountain for governor in 1932
many of them wanted Daniels to run
for Governor then- and that he would
leave very few votes for the Rocky
Mount candidate.
So far. the opinion in most circles
here is that Ambassador Daniels is not
likely to resign a position reported
to have a salary of $17,000 a year at
tached to if, together with a beauti
ful embassy residence in a delightful
and salubrious climate, with a large
staff of budding diplomats to relieve
him of al Idetail work, for a seat in
the Senate paying only SIO,OOO a year
and carrying with it a great deal of
grief for whoever gets it. At present
it is conceded that as long as Am
bassador Daniels does nothing and
makes no speeches which might of
fend the Catholics, that he can con
tinue to live in Mexico City as long
Queen QU

''■' * - i . ' * ' L
as Franklin Roosevelt remains Pres
ident, It is also pointed out that
Ambassador Daniels is almost 71
years old, and that the rigors of a po
litical campaign, combined with the
i’eavy and exacting duties of a sena
tor, both actual and political, might
prove too severe a strain for his ad
vanced years. Many have believed
for several years that he would have
been a candidate for the Democratic
nomination for governor in 1932 but
for his age and tho fact he was
then recovering from an injury receiv
ed in an automobile accident. And
while he is now in excellent health,
it is pointed out that he is three years
older.
However, there are those who main
tain that strong encouragement to
the talk of candidacy is being receiv
ed from Washington and that Presi
dent Roosevelt- who was assistant
secretary of the’navy when Alr. Dan
iels was secretary during the war,
would welcome his candidacy and his
presence in the Senate in Washing
ton. It is no secret in political cir
„’(\s here that the administration in
\i a hmgtoii has felt for some time
that it has never received the support
fjom Senator Bailey it thinks it should
have had. It is also agreed that the
president is likely to have rougher
’ sledding in the forthcoming session
of Congress than in any other so far
and that he is going to he in real need
of an able leader in the Senate upon
whom he can depend. It is maintain
ed that Daniels, if nominated and
elected, would he in a position to im
mediately become one of the Presi
dent’s leaders and spokesmen in the
■ Senate.
However, the opinion in most circles
i here is that Air. Daniels is going to
i hesitate a long time before resigning
| his present sure thing as ambassador
! to risk a race for the Senate against
’ Senator Bailey,
Young Democrats
Snubbing Bailey
(Continued from Page One.)
i invited to make the speech ;jt the
Jackson Day dinner here by the
Wake County Young Democratic
Club. The addresses of the evening
will he deli 'verd by Angus I.). Mac
i Lean, former solicitor general of the
t United States and by one other
j jH'aker vet to be named. No one here
; knows whether Senator Bailey has
been invited to address any county
Jackson Day dinner. He will not be
invited to address the Guilford Conn
j ty Young Democrats at their Jaoh-
I son Day dinner, since they have al
] ready invited Governor J. C. B. Eb
ringbaus to address them and he has
accepted. It is understood fcere that’
the officers and many of the mem
bers of the Guilford Countv Young
Democrats are not at all friend’y ;c
Senator Bailey or to C. Leßoy Shujv
ing, his erstwhile campaign manager,
lately regarded as being one of the
bitterest ant i-Rooscvelt ami anti-New
Dealers in the State. So when the
i Yeung Democrats <>f Guilford county
I invited Governor Ehringhaus instead
: of Senator Bailey to be the principal
speaker at their Jackson Day dinner,
i it was regarded in many political cir
| cles here as an open rebuff to BAiley
| -'on Sbu’x.vr in the former seat of
j their strength and the fountain head
of patronage distribution, since the
I removal of the internal revenue of
| fice.s to Greensboro,
j The fact that President Ronald lh>-
outt, of the Wake County Young De
mocrats. refused to he dictated to
either by the State officials of the
Young Democratic Club-; or by Ihe
| Bailey leaders here in Wake county,
is regarded as being another very de
cided snub and rebuff for the senior
; senator, since Wake is his home
county. For, after the various county
presidents of the, Young Democratic
Clubs had been advised they would
have the privilege of selecting the
speakers for their respective Jackson
Day dinners, they were later notified
by Mrs. Bessie Phoenix, State presi
dent of the Young Democrats, that
thg district chairmen in the various
congressional districts would select
the speakers for the counties, it is
; understood here. The district, ehair
i men cf the Young Democrats in this,
| the fourth congressional district. Is
i Norman Shepherd, of Smithfiekl, with
G. A. Martin, also of Smithfiekl, as
! vice chairman. Both are regarded as
being strong Bailey supporters.
Tt is generally known that Airs.
Phoenix “suggested” to Hooutt that
he invite Senator Bailey to be the
Marland Martin Pattern
ii
principal speaker at the Wake Coun
ty .Jackson Day dinner, also hint he
"postpone” extending any invitations
o Governor Ehringhaus. It is believ
'd that this course of action was sug
gested to Mrs. Phoenix ’y Herbert
Gulley. Senator Bailey's chief “Good
Man Friday” in this section of the
State and regarded by many as be
ing the present political mentor of the
State president of the Young Demo
crats. Indications are, however, that
President Ilocuft. of the Wake Coun
ty Young Democrats, refused to be
dictated to either by Mrs. Phoenix or
Mr. Gulley and that ho was determin
ed to select, the Jackson Day dinner
speaker without any suggestions from
any one. It was learned from a relia
ble source today that he had intend
ed to invite Governor Khringha.ua,
but that, due to the delay urged by
others, the governor was invited to
the Guilford county dinner and ac-
