BUILDING IN THE SOUTH.
According to a compilation of building
permits for the month of October made
by the survey department of G. L. Mil
ler & Company. Southern real estate
bond house, building construction in the
cities of the sixteen Southern States
Still |ts lead over last year, in
9lht| of general expectancy to the con- i
trary. ‘The figures show a gain of four :
per cent, was registered in the territory
over the same period last year.
The outlook for the remaining two
months of the year is firm, with indica
tions pointing to slight gains both for
November and December, and a general
gain for the entire year of at least 25
per cent, over 1922, which was the
greatest building year the South has ever
known. '
According to the figures made public
by this real estate concern. Concord came
fifth in North Carolina cities in Oeto
ber in the amount of building contract
ed for or completed. The total for this
city was estimated at SOO,OOO. Winston-
Salem was the leader in this State, her
total being $311,750, with Charlotte sec
ond with a total of *272-205. High Point
ranked third with a total of $157,200
and Durham was fourth with $100,550.
BRYAN IN THE SENATE.
William Jennings Bryan, who now
claims Florida as liis home, stated sev
eral days ago that he would uot accept
the Democratic nomination for Governor
of Florida, hut that lie would accept
the senatorial nomination if given to
him That was to have been expected
but isn’t he willing to work for it?
We have an idea that Mr. Bryan
would grace the Uuited States Senate by
his presence, but it is hardly right for
him to sit hack and expect the people of
Florida to present him the nomination
on a silver jdatter. The fact that Mr.
Bryan is a .man of world prominence
does uot entitle him to sit bark at home
and egpeot the people of Florida to full
on his neck in their desire to elect him
to the Senate.
The United Sjtates Senate can use
men of Mr. Bryan’s character and intel
lect and we would like to see him repre
sent Florida in that body, but somehow
we can’t picture the people of Florida
running after him With the nomination.
If the place is worthy of Mr. Bryan's
fitne it is worthy of his' efforts to get it.
fiCtt THE UIbHT MAN.
The News and Ohserver rightly de
clares that should Associate Justice Sta
cy. of the Utate Supreme Court, resign
from th*t high l wait km to become dean
of the law «d*ooi of the University of
North Carolina, the best man in the
State should he appointed to succeed
Jlim, regardless of what county he lives
in.
That’s the right idea. The North
Carolina Supreme Court was not organ
ized for the purpose of giving office to
' some man or of offering some county or
some section of the State an opportunity
'of getting the "favorite sou" nu high
office. The Supreme Court represents
the best in the State, and Us personnel
should be made up of men capable ami
efficient, regardless of their popularity
or home county.
It has been customary, or rather peo
ple have thought that it was customary
to divide appointments to the Court
from the two sections of the State. This
has out boon done, however, as the East
has had many wore representatives on
the Ctmtt than ibe W«t. But this

SOCIETY GIRLS DIRECT
FIFTH AVENUE TRAFFIC
f’ 1 ’
• One Motorist Blimps Hearse as He
Watches Beb Climb Ladder.
, New York. Nov. B. —Half a dozen I
( young society girls, all members of the
i Junior League, made their debut as
traffic regulators on Fifth avenue during
the busy noon hour today. In trim rid- I
ing habits, they took complete charge of I
the control stations at Forty-second I
street. Fifth street, and Fifty-seventh
street.
AutomobUe traffic and pedestra ins
alike moved reluctantly, so interested
wer«--..sj»ecfatiys in watching the debu
tantes in their new role. One man in
a sedan was so intent upon watching
a leaguer climb the ladder at the Fifty
seventh street control that his" car
bumped squarely into a heurse moving
in the same direction before he was
brought to a realization that he was
driving in congested Fifth avenue, in
stead of occupying a front seat at a
musical comedy show.
Mules Run Into Telephone Bole.
Monresville Enterprise.
Friday about 11 o’clock Mr. J. 1,.
Goodman, the merchant at (’while Creek,
was leaving the wholesale groeeiy house
with a wagon loaded with merchandise.
At the same time a freight train cam'
dribbling down the railroad ami when
the engine reached a point opposite the
mules to the wagon, the animals made
a lunge forward and ran two hundred
yards to a telephone pole just south of
tthe creamery. One mule went to each
side of the pole, breaking the tongue
to the wagon, demolishing the (Jroirt
wheels and a portion, of the body nud
senttetring groceries all over the street
and side walk. Mr. Goodman escaped
without injury and neither of the big
black mules was scratched in any ways.
The merchandise was transferee 1 to an
other wagon and the parts of thte dam
aged wagon were gathered together ami
carted to the repair shops.

Troubles That Result From Everyday
Business Life in Berlin. i
I Berlin. Nov. 9.—Berlin is filled with I
stories, some ludicrous and some other-!

doing the business of everyday life in a !
I currency ithat sits twa(ies brtyoml I (She
bounds of reason or imagination.
In a hat store recently a customer se
lected a hat for 900.000.000 marks:
hauded over 100.000,000 on account and
• said he would come buck the next day
and pay the balance. He did. but iu
the menatiine the mark had so fluctuated :
that the same bat was priced (100.000.000.
Tlie dealer insisted the customer carry |
onl his contract to purchase at 900,000.- j
000. but the customer refused and sur
rendered lit* edposit of 100,000.000 marks. |
An lto/ir later he came hack and bought.
the same hat for 000.000.000 marks, mnk
. ing 200,000,000 by breaking his con
tract.
Tli: s transaction is typical of the
change which bus route over both Ger
man wholesale and retail business. Agree
ments are uot respected in the face of
radical changes in exchange, and there is
a constant effort to find some stable ba
sis upon which to ojterate. The new gold
currency is to be offered as a remedy,
but its value running alongside the de-j
predated, jiaper currency, may or may
uot be stable.
