TODAY and TOMORROW .< I. I,, i n. WASHINGTON , . .want* to vote. ? The people of the District of Co ?lumbia are again demanding the right of self-government. The President of :.tjbc jUnited States is tho Mayor ol Washington and the Congress of the United! States its Board of Alder men. Any changes in the ordinances for the government of the city have to - go through the same legislative channels as a bill to raise billions of Federal revenue. I lived in Washington a good many years. It is the cleanest, best-govern ed city in America, with the worst traffic regulations. Before the Fed oral Government took over the man agement, in 1879, it had its own elect ed Governor and legislative body, and it was probably the worst-governed city of that time. President Hayes proposed that the Federal Govern ment would: pay half the upkeep, be ing the largest property owner, if the people would let Uncle Sam run its own Capital. They gave up the right to vote, but got in return a low tax rate and a well-managed community. ,, Some people, however, are never satisfied. " - ? WOJLVES .... and wild dogs -'Tber^ is a "wolf scare" almost ev ery cold winter in Northern Neiw York and New England. Tales of big timber .wolves from Canada crossing tlje St.- Lawrence on the ice frighten qapntry -people, who dirs&d to go out afjer night -fall. This year there have been s? many sheep and cattle killed in the'^prthern Adirondacks that the Stjfte ha*,pat a bounty on wcjf ecalpe I feaven*Ntcard that any bounty mou eyljas been collected, either there or j in Pennsylvania, where there is an other wotf scare. staged a wolf hunt in the hiBs near my f^rm a few winters ago. Tlu> man "ppliee dog" which had heard the .call of the wild and reverted t j 1 lifp in- the woods. I have talked with 1 a ?0od many hunters and naturalists I .since, and they pretty well are agreed [ibat the recurrence of "wolf" raids can nearly a lwa'ys be traced to wild dogs, usually collies or Alsatian shep herds of the type called' "police" dogn Those two brped9 arc many genera tioua nearer the ancestral wolves from which all dogs are descended, and when they break away from do mesticity they know how to take car; of themselves in a wild state. AUTOMOBILES . . . .more comfort I went to the New York automobile show and examined all the new and many of them, odd-looking cars. One thing impressed me particularly, and lhat is* the effort of all makers to ward greater comfort in riding. In such matters as independent front whffl suspension, moving the rear seat forward so it is not right over the rear axle, roomier and more com- 1 fortable seats, new kinds of windows j to provide ventilation without drafts, larger and softer tires, and many minor details, the emphasis is all on comfort. Greater speed through "streamlin ing" is another trend to which all the makers are moving. And nowhoe have 1 1 seen such a varietv of color, inside ! .* 7 ' and out of automobiles-; Manufacturers and dealers were ju ?# bilant. Sales at the show were far in excess of the highest expectations. I This is going toi-be a good' year for tlfe automobile industry, but I would suggest to anyone who wants a new e#r to place his order now, for the factories are already behind the de mand. Also, prices are likely to go np before the yea/ is over . CAREERS .... often accidental Pew people kp?w when they are very young what their life-work is going to be. Most of them find, them M;lve 3 in careers Which they never dreamed of. There Is Ted Oeisel, for example. He went 'through two or three universities, intcneding to be come a real author of college profes sors or both. Rut one day ho drejw a comic sketch and sent it to a popu lar magazine. It was published and caught the eye of the advertising man ager of a big corporation. "We want that young man to drawj advertising pictures fOr us", he said, and that is whit Ted- Geisel has been doing, with great profit to himself and his employers and to the amuse ment of the public, for several years. J Everybody has seen hia pen-name,* Mrs. A ance Brysou, 61, died in the local hospital, Tuesday morning, with ia fifteen minutes after having been brought there from Cuiiowhee, where she was struck by a truck, as bhe attmpted to cross the hgliway, in front of the residence of David H. Brown. Mrs. Bryson's son, Mr. Andrew Brysoa was with her at the time ot the fatal accident. Dallas Mills of the Hamburg section of the county is said to have been the driver of the truck. He was released i'rom custody following the report of the coronor 's jury, which reads as follows: "The deceased, Mrs. Vance Brysou, came to her death by crossing the road in front of a moving truck. The jury finds that the death of Mrs. Brysou was accidental and unavoid able" The verdict is signed by C. W. Dills, coronor for Jackson county, and by E. H. St ill well, P. L. Elliott, John E. Hooper, W. B. Crawford, J. L. Norton and H. T. Hunter, members of the jury which held the investi gation. Funeral services for Mrs. Brysou were conducted at the Cuiiowhee Baptist church, Wednesday afternoon by Rev. I. K- Stafford, the pastor, assisted by Prof. Robt. L. Madison, Rev. E. C. Widenhouse, pastor of the Cuiiowhee Methodist church, Rev. P. L. Elliott, of the faculty of Western Carolina Teachers College, and Rov. A. B Somers of "Glenville. Mrs. Bryson, who before her marri age, was Miss Tina Bowman, of Trln sylvania county, was a much loved woman ot' the Cuiiowhee community. She was a devout and devoted mem ber of the Cuiiowhee Baptist chureb, and was a good neighbor, fall of good works and deeds of kindness. The classes at Western Carolina Teachers College were dismissed for the funeral ervice, in honor to thie good woman of the community, who (has been a friend to the school and its students for many years, and who wa^ the mother %? the first itudeBt t*/" receivc a degree from the college, and of- aTi other son, who w^s also a mem | ber of the first degree class. Surviving her arc her husband, two sous, Andy Bryson, who was with her at the time of the fatal accident, Wil liam Bryson. who is teaching in High Shoals, in Lincoln count, two daugh ters, Mrs. T.

One young woman whom I know i | supporting herself and her mother bv giving parties. The husband and fath er, supposed to be wealthy, commit - tod suicide in 1930, leaving his fami ly with nothing that they could call I their own. The daughter had never been trained to any sort of work, bnt she had a wH? circle of friends. ''I'm wing to keep right on giving parties", she- told them, "'but to come to my partien you'll haVe to pay". At least once a week she giys a dance, ! with a simple supper, and her friends who still have money flock to it and bring their friends, paying $2.50 a head. The young woman and her moth' fr are living as well as they used to and she is putting money in a saving bank. That's wfcat 1 eatl i? wimsfttlnm
