RHYNE nnrtiT nun nimn the- Associated Presa- Chicago, .Nov. 15J -More" Than the i.v?ual - amount of winter activity in 'jildintr with residential work, tak- rog a prominent part, is indicated Jn a .survey of activities made by the American Contractor, in 'twenty-seven, .states forming the main northeastern part of the JUnited -tate,s. ; ; Valuation of tKe 2141 contracts awarded for the week ending Octob er 28, reached a total .of: $64,34?, 100 and was but slightly lower than the weekly : average for the first nine months of this record breaking year, r ays the publication. "The volume, of contracts awarded during the last two weeks of Octob er, which are normally dull, shews that theie is expectation of less let up than usual during the winter per iod," the paper states. "There are incontrovertible facts .'which show that building activity is in no danger of a slump for months to come. ; "Contemplated work reported for the week ending October 28 totaled $100,6G2,900. For the corresponding week of 1921, this total was oniy $86,922,000 and the valuation of con tracts awarded was only $51,718,600. Yet the fall" of 1921 was considered a good opener for, the spring season of 1922. , , , "Of the contemplated work, for that week, $46,491,200 is for residen tial building as against $iz,rfdi,yuu for business building and $7,025,300 for industrial building. While the demand for. residence building has net diminished and will not diminish for some -time, there is little business and indusctrial building going on and a period of business ; expansion will add these projects to the field. In addition there is much educational and governmental building in obey ance which must be done 30011. "Skilled labor will be -ocarca rext year as it is now; Indications are that no reduction ; will be made in wages of common labor which is all ab sorbed. Material men are producing at increased costs. The demand- for t 'abor and mterials in the spring will equal the supply, from sucn lacts, a definite logical conclusion renam ing future building costs can oe drawn, by anyone.

Can didates from nearby towns aie re ceiving degrees at the fall reunion, of the coordinated bodies Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rites of Free Mas onry which was in session at the Ma sonic Temple here today. J. M: Allred, popular Hickojry .citi zen, burst into print in New York the other day in the Pennsylvania KegieT-ratiotel'TrfiWSt minted i and distributed especially .for its guests. Record readers, will .agree that the story is unique. Here.it is: The Virginia Reel, so long the fav orite of the young and old enjoyment lovers, has secretly led a. double life. She has entered the industrial .world arid has: been successful in it for many years. - . . , . .'. The fact was revealed yesterdav bv Mr. J: M. Allred of Hickory, North Carolina, a guest of Hotel Pennsyl- j'vania,, and General Superintendent of the Gte Cordage and Twme Com- pany. v -y -Y' . . . ..:''.; 1'An 'interestinig thinw about the "manufacture of cord," said Mr. Allred, nf Zr m v-,p.j exact design of the Virginia Reel. The is that sash cord is braided m the man, in fact, who first manufactured sash cord copied the movements of the Virginia Reel in braiding it. ' The secretwas out; and the indus trial activities of the gay "Virginia" were laid bare! "Each, thread," continued Mr. Allred, "is . wound in and out in Virginia Reel fashion. Rather odd. isn't it? The Virginia Reel dates far back into history, and the first braiding of sash in that way is beyond recollection." Other cords, Mr. Allred said, are braided after the style of the may-pole dance and others. In regard to the manufacture of cot ton Mr. Allred said that cotton is displacing many fabrics and is' suc cessfully imitating others. "More than sixty per cent of the fine .pure wool out of which suits and skirts are made, is cotton now adays. Of course, you know that most silk stockings are cotton; mercerized silk has long, been standardized." Mr. Allred, whose company manu facturers the cotton into cord and twine as it enters the Piedmont dis trict f rom the. cotton fields, threw a new light on the menace of the boll weevil. He pictured that cotton scourging pest, which is so great an annoyance to the Southern planter anS commercial cotton dealer, as a lifter of profits rather than a, shrinker of them. ; "The boll-weevil," he said, "may tut down the crops a bit, but because MR:ALLRtDTELLS Hi CORD IS REELED of v its presence ; the cotton i much larger pront tnan ne coum cap under v normal conditions.

Birmingham, .Ala., Nov.. 15 -Mrs. Livingstone Rowe Schuyler, presi dent general,' delivered her report to the United Daughters of the Confed eracy at the second, session of the con vention here today.
